Hello

Has anyone done any climbing in china? I'd really like to do some travelling, see the east and combine it with my love of climbing. Not really sure what area yet, that would be determined by where the best rock is. I'd be particually intrested in any information about long multi pitch climbs and would probably have about two months to play with as part of a longer trip.

Does anybody know any good places on the web to start trying to find information about where to climb? Are there any English guidebooks available? Is there any problems with red tape getting in to popular climbing area's?

Many Thanks

There's rock climbing in every makor city.
I live in Beijing, there's the boulder bar downtown, you can drink and climb, in the bar.
There's a climbing wall in the Ritan Park, right downtown.
Out of city there's plenty of sites.
