hello everybody!
yesterday my boyfriend and i descided to go to china in the summer, but we only have a 3 weeks holiday and not much money...we start in beijing and fly back from beijing, we want to do xi'an and pinyao(?), that is possible by train, isnt it? but then we are not sure what to do... is it possible to go somewhere nice by train or do we have to take a flight?
also, do you have nice sea sites in the beijing area, because i love the sea....
about 3 days in beijing when we arrive and 2 when we leave, is that ok? and in xi'an, two or one night?
thank you very much |

Your idea of going to PingYao from Beijing, and then to Xi'An is a good one, I did the same in 2004. We went towards Yangshuo after that, but you have too little time to go there I think. There is a lot to see in Shanghai and Beijing, those cities take most of your time. Trainrides are very good in China, and much cheaper than flying all over the place. We always went everywhere by train (and bus and boat) and I had some great conversations with locals on the train. The sleepertrain is very good, and might be a good idea from Shanghai to Beijing. The trains always have attendants to keep it clean and to fill up the hot water. I suggest you bring tea, instant soup or coffee along, because hot water is always available.
Have fun! |
