Trip to China part #3

So here it is at last, the third part and maybe the last (if I don’t edit some more photos from my trip to China). All three parts show some kind of overview over my trip to China. I have seen a lot, in fact so much that I do not have so much time to write all of it down :) I have seen Beijing, Xian, Chengdu, Song Pan (this city is on altitude of 3000m and from here we went to a 3day trekking with horses to nearby mountains as high as 4000m), Guilin and Yang Shou. Of course I visited the Great Wall also. The best thing in Beijing was (for me) the Forbidden City, and The Great Wall (that is 3hours away with a bus). A train and 12hours later I arrived to Xian. There I have seen Terracotta Warriors and Old City wall that is completely renovated (it is 14km long and goes around the old city centre). One of the best things on this trip was of course visiting Panda resort in Chengdu, they are just magnificent creatures and so cute. From Xian to Chengdu was about 16hours with a train. There is also one very interested thing nearby Chengdu and that is the Giant Buddha, which has 75m in height. From Chengdu we left to Song Pan (towards Tibet…10hours with a bus to Song Pan). Song Pan was our base from where we went to a three day trekking with horses to nearby mountains and walleyes. After trekking was over we returned to Chengdu and went south to with a plane to Guilin and Yang Shou which are known of its karsts landscapes. The landscape is just amazing. And than 3 weeks were almost over and it was time to go home… First a flight to Beijing and then back to Europe…. Hope you like the photos and my short description of my trip…

    Super fotografije. Vedno uživam, ko gledam takšne fotoreportaže iz nam neznanih krajev. Zadnji dve fotografiji še posebej sekata. Tvoj blog sem že dodal na svojo listo ogleda vrednih blogov. Se zagotovo še vrnem.

    Super je takole spremljat potovanja čez viewfinder :) V naslednjih parih letih definitivno pobegnem tja.. Je bila zaščita z rokavicami pri pandi nujna? Zanimivo. Lp+
