The (Winter) Itinerary for First-Timers

This is a classic China itinerary that you may want to refer to if it is your first time visiting China.
This 10‒11-day itinerary visits Beijing, Xi'an, Guilin, and Shanghai. You would not only see top China attractions like the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, the Terracotta Warriors, and the Bund but also visit Guilin, where you would see in southern China's relatively mild winter and could see and experience idyllic rural scenery and lifestyles.
If you happen to be visiting during Chinese New Year, could also arrange celebration experiences for you, like going to a New Year Fair and watching folk art performances.
Here is the suggested itinerary:
· Days 1‒3: Beijing (the Great Wall with a night tour, the Forbidden City…)
· Days 4‒5: Xi'an (the Terracotta Warriors, a food tour…)
· Days 6‒8: Guilin (a river cruise, countryside life experience, ethnic minority culture)
· Days 9‒11: Shanghai (the Bund, free time to explore)
If you want to ski, you could stay in Beijing for one or two more days, and would arrange a great ski resort for you. Just contact us.
