CLEVELAND, Ohio -- LeBron James' annual trip to China is over, with the apparent highlight a parade in his honor in the city of Guangzhou attended by thousands.

James, who made his 12th consecutive Asian trip for Nike, posted to Instagram Wednesday a picture of him standing in the back of a truck with thousands of Chinese fans standing behind barricades and a sports stadium behind him.

For reference, there were no barricades or barrier of any kind keeping an estimated crowd of more than 1 million people from James and his Cavs teammates during a parade in downtown Cleveland after they won the 2016 NBA championship in June.

The Guangzhou parade was apparently over the weekend -- according to China Central Television James moved on from Guangzhou to the country's capital city of Beijing on Monday. He was to spend three days in China, according to CCTV, and was to work with the U-23 Chinese national basketball team (first reported by cleveland.com).

According to a video posted by CCTV, Cavs assistant coach and James' friend Damon Jones accompanied him to China and helped him run basketball clinics.

In his Instagram post, James said "I'm so blessed that this game of basketball has taken this kid from Akron around the globe. I never take a single moment for granted."

One reason to suspect James is back safely in the U.S. -- either in Los Angeles or suburban Akron. Today is his third wedding anniversary. He wished his wife Savannah a happy on Instagram. The couple was married in 2013 in San Diego.

James is expected to host his Cavs teammates for pre-training workouts in Los Angeles in the next several days.
