Chinese Kites, Warriors & Pandas

An action packed tour that takes in not only the major highlights of China, but also includes a Chinese noodle making lesson, kite flying, pandas, acrobatic and kung fu shows.
We walk along the Great Wall of China, marvelling at its length. In Beijing we explore the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and the Summer Palace, fly kites with the local children, visit the Pandas at Beijing Zoo, take a tour of the hutongs, and watch a Kung Fu Show.
Next stop is Xi?an, where we wander through the bustling Muslim Quarter, cycle along the City Wall looking down over Xi?an and learn how to make Chinese noodles. We visit the Terracotta Army, each warrior with its own unique features, and learn how the army was unearthed after 2000 years of burial. From Xi?an we fly to Shanghai, and visit the Yu Gardens, the Bund Area and Shanghai Museum. We cruise along the Huangpu River, ascend the TV Tower, explore the Children?s Palace, and spend an evening at an acrobatic show.
