I was lucky enough to spend a week in China seeing some of the most amazing history in the world to celebrate my milestone birthday. We spent 2 days in Beijing (needed more), a day and a half down at the Wall in Jinshanling, a full day travelling including 4 hours on a Bullet train and a full day in Xi'an (also needed more). |

We managed to cram so much in a day and then spent the nights roaming the city to see the modern side - the bars and art and shopping.
Getting around China takes a long time, so there was a fair bit of time in transit, which is a pity, but it was a great trip and we had so much fun. It blew away all our expectations.
There are three posts on it so far on my travel blog, for those interested, and more to come.
I really loved this trip and had a blast with my very easy going long time friend of 47 years, an excellent travel companion, who made the difficult things funny and relaxing....
Have you been to China? Did you love it?
Linking with #TravelTuesday because I was talking about this trip with friends - I loved it so much!
