CHINA EXPERIENCEApril 5th 2011
I was lucky to get the opportunity to travel with Wendy Wu tours to China. And spend 10 days in this beautiful country.
I flew with Emirates to Beijing via Dubai and was very impressed with the service on board. On arrival in Beijing we visited Tiananmen Square and the forbidden city, during the evening sampled the Beijing Acrobat show. The next day saw a visit to the great wall and the beautiful summer palace.
An overnight sleeper train took us the the former ancient capital Xian. That evening we visited the Tang Dynasty dancing show and a meal of Shui Jiao dumplings. This being one meal that I will never forget!. A visit to the Terracotta Warriors and a walk on the ancient city wall completed our stay in Xian.
