Itinerary highlights

  • Shanghai… spend three nights in this cosmopolitan megalopolis, and discover its unique blend of historic sites, peaceful gardens, and towering, futuristic buildings. You'll take a walking tour of Nanjing Road and the historic Bund area
  • Beijing… explore China's buzzing capital, walking the enchanting hútòngs (ancient alleyways) and tasting the imperial-era cuisine. You'll visit the "absolutely unique" (Lonely Planet) Temple of Heaven, the Olympic Park, a pearl factory, and take a day-long excursion to the Great Wall of China — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New7Wonders of the World
  • Xi'an… once the eastern starting point of the Silk Road, it is now a "roaring modern city" (Lonely Planet). You'll see the Terracotta Army, explore the Old City Wall's South Gate, the warren-like Muslim Quarter, and learn about the ancient art of Chinese calligraphy at the Yanyuan Art Museum
  • Chengdu… meet the endangered giant pandas in their leafy enclosures at the Giant Panda Breeding Research Base. During your 3-night stay you'll also visit the Panda Museum and the Shu Brocade and Embroidery Museum, before heading back to the airport for your flight back to the UK
