Cracks and holes on the battlements are like scars reminding you of its glorious past as the unbreakable defensive screen of the nation. The round way cable car will be arranged. 

We do not arrange lunch today due to the low quality of the nearby restaurants. Hence, you may have some fast food by yourself. The guide is happy to offer some suggestions.

    We arrived safely in the Netherlands after our wonderful vacation in China and all arranged by Wendy, a very professional travel consultant. We appreciate all the work she did for us. We will recommend our friends here if they want to go to China to use Travel China Guide to arrange their tour. We liked the food and found it to be excellent. The meals arranged were sometimes a little bit too much. Probably because we usually do not eat so much. All the guides are professional and can speak good English and also their knowledge about the culture are good. The drivers are very professional, good and most important of all they drove safely. We are never late to the airport and they arrange the baggage for us to / from the hotel etc. I do think that the best drivers are the drivers in Xi'an and in Beijing. ... More
