I can’t believe I suffered through that train ride for this. I’m not sure if it is my fondness for Beijing or my lack of sleep, but my first impressions of Xi’an are not good ones. We arrived around 9:30am planning on staying only one night. Actually, since Berit has to catch a plane bac…

China always has been on my top 5 list. Due to its history, culture & mysterious arts we have travelled around China for nearly 4 weeks, trying to find some answers to questions which still remain not answered....

Rondreis China - Tibet - Nepal

For some reason, I didn't stop in Huashan village after I'd got down the mountain; just got straight onto a tiny minibus with a Chinese-Australian guy who, for some reason, wanted to talk about theology. I'd not slept for about thirty hours by this point and wasn't quite in the mood, so i stuck my …

After rocking up round midnight  we managed to score here- managing to get a double room with bathroom for 60 yuan (10 bucks) so stayed 3 nights... even though we werent in the middle of town, we were inside the old town walls. This was basically a giant version on Pingyao-and much more modern…
