Walk the Great Wall at Jinshanling Pass
Built some 2,000 years ago to keep out pillaging nomads, the Great Wall stretches from the Gobi desert to the Yellow Sea – the largest man-made structure on Earth. Walk along the Great Wall and enjoy a picnic at Jinshanling Pass. This part of the wall provides unique photo opportunities away from the crowds.
Uncover the Terracotta Warriors
Visit the army of thousands of life-sized warriors and their horses in battle formation. Buried for 2,000 years, they stand guard over the tomb of Emperor Qin Shi-Huang.
Trek Jiuzhaigou Nature Reserve
Located in the north-eastern reaches of the Min Shan mountain range, Jiuzhaigou Nature Reserve in the Sichuan province is known for gorgeous alpine scenery of thick forests, glittering lakes, thundering waterfalls and snowy peaks. It’s well-known to Chinese tourists but something of a secret outside China.
Sail along the Yangtze
Take a leisurely cruise down a major part of the Yangtze's length, from Chongqing to Shanghai to visit the Three Gorges and Huang Shan's misty peaks.
