As I said I am off to China with my mother in Novenber; she has wanted to go for a while but didn't want to go alaone due to it ...well being very Chinese... and not being the most foreigner friendly place in the world. So I have sorted out a tailor made trip with the excellent
China Travel Company (@headseast).
We are going to:
- Beijing; For Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven, the Great Wall and some duck!
- Xi'an; Terracotta Warriors and dumpling banquets
- Juizhaigou; Perfect Lakes and snow
- Chengdu; Giant Buddha and Sichuan spicy food.
- Lijiang; 'Old School' China and Pu'eh tea.
- Guilin; Li River Cruise Caves and beer fish.
- Yangshou; Karst Mountains and river rafting
- Hong Kong; Shopping and Mango Pudding
Cos I am a geek there is a Google Map:
So entries may be after the fact due to China's OTHER Great Wall, but I will write each day and upload as I can, plus there is the twitter and email if you just cant wait that long!
Pictures will be
