Complete and Attractive 6 Days Beijing Xian Holiday
by Alva

May26

We only got one week time in China and that was why I choose this tour line. 6 days Beijing and Xian tour was going so fast, seems little bit short and not enough to explore more about others historical sites in both cities. But never mind, we keep used our time efficiently and great! Basically, we explored all the most famous attractions in the capital. Those attractions include Great Wall, Forbidden City, Summer Palace etc without one less.

The structures of Great Wall and Forbidden City were amazing and so Chinese. Enjoyed the explanation that we got from our guide a lot. I even learned so many history and culture of China with this 6 days tour, in Beijing and Xian, two ancient capital of China. The most favorite attraction of mine was Summer Palace. It was just different with others historical sites in both cities. The huge garden is also offers the stunning landscapes and relaxing feeling, not only its rich historical story or background. Summer Palace was used as the royal garden of Qing Dynasty, a summer escape place for emperor.

In the center of the garden, there has a large manmade lake where people can ride the boat enjoying the scenery around. We could not even know the history before joined the tour. What the history of Summer Palace? How Summer Palace built? And why? From the guide, we knew all of the history behind its stunning garden. After a few minutes that we spent wandering the park we finally got into a long hallway which located near from the lake.

Summer Palace was an ideal place for an escape when summer comes, the air was fresh and cooler than the outside. Till now, I could not believe that the garden was built for only a relaxing place for the empress, used the military fund to restore the Summer Palace. Never mind, in fact the garden was a beautiful place for sure.

Different from Beijing, when we were in Xian, we did see different side of China. I just directly could tell the different between Beijing and Xian. Because during the tour I am personally interested in history and the stories behind those attractions, so I heard all the tour guides explanations very clearly. It was an interesting experience to know about China history, very unique and complicated too. A worthwhile tour to join!
