Highlight This 10-day trip will take you to the two of the
most ancient
cities in the heartland of the central China, Beijing and Xi'an.
For thousands of years, these two cities have witnessed the rise and fall
of numerous Emperors. Among them is the Qin Shi Huang who initiated
the building of the Great Wall hoping to
forever guard his kingdom from outside invasion. He also left us
with the Terra Cotta Army forever guarding his mausoleum. Today
the emperors and their dreams vanished away, leaving behind a legacy
that awaits your exploration. This trip will not only sample the
major historic sites, but also take you into
ordinary people's homes where you will learn how to make a traditional Chinese
cuisine from our host family while getting a taste of the sweet and bitter
reality of their lives.
