One of the upcoming stores is located in Hangzhou and has been shown off in a new promotional video starring calligrapher Wang Dongling, who created a sizeable mural currently on display.</p> <!--break--> <p>The mural is in fact the West Lake poem (https://www.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/2t19w9/apple_store_hangzhou_what_do_the_ideograms_mean/), written Chinese poet Su Shi, which translates to:</p>

<p>The light of water sparkles on a sunny day,
 and misty mountains lend excitement to the rain.
 I like to compare the west lake to "Miss West".
 Pretty in a gay dress, and pretty in simple again.

The new Apple Store (https://www.apple.com/cn/retail/westlake/) is expected to open on January 24 at 9am local time.</p> <p>Check out the video on Apple's Chinese website and see how Dongling makes the art look incredibly easy to replicate.</p> <p>Source: Apple (http://www.apple.com/cn/retail/) (Chinese)</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-29469"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/42832665/sc/4/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
