China, jul 22 – nov 11, 2011

China is huge! Our time was limited thanks to the current visa situation. But we fit in a lot and experienced some of the endlessly diverse facets of China: Skyscrapers in Hong Kong, amazing landscapes and culture mix in Xinjiang, two weeks of learning Chinese in Yangshuo, exploring the fascinating Yunnan, walking the Forbidden City and Great Wall, time travel to ancient China in the walled town of Pingyao, visiting the famous Terra Cotta Warriors and spending two days in trendy Shanghai, the new China.
