China
The Great Wall, Forbidden City, terracotta warriors, and a culinary journey through the world's oldest cuisine.
Overview
About this package
Six days through China's imperial core — the endless courtyards of the Forbidden City, a hike along the restored Mutianyu section of the Great Wall away from the tour-bus crowds, and a flight to Xi'an for a face-to-face encounter with the buried Terracotta Army, row after silent row.
