Our most popular China tour for a first time visit is our 9-day Great Wall & Warrior tour. Starting in the capital Beijing you can explore Tiananmen Square, the largest public square in the world, which plays host to Chairman Mao's great mausoleum. Staring out across Tiananmen from above the Gate of Heavenly Peace is the famous Technicolour portrait of Mao. It is through these gates that one can enter the Forbidden City. Built between 1406 and 1420, it served as the imperial palace for the Ming and Qing dynasties and is said to contain 9999 rooms. No visit on a China tour to Beijing is complete without a drive to the Great Wall of China! Snaking some 6700 kms across barren hills, deserts, mountains and plateaus, the now partially ruinous Great Wall stretches east to west in northern China and is believed to be the longest man made structure in the world. Today, people from all over the world visit to walk on the Great Wall of China, stand on a watchtower and view the wall, winding as far as the eye can see, over the horizon. The Badaling section is perhaps the best preserved and most frequently visited by tourists.
After Beijing it's onwards towards Xi'an to visit the famous Terracotta Warriors. These were the discovery of Emperor Qin's army of 2,200 year old terracotta warriors in 1974 by local farmers who happened to be digging a well. More than 7,000 life-sized warriors stand in military formation in excavated pits under the cover of a modern protective hanger, a must-see on any China tour! Finish off in Shanghai, perhaps China's most modern city. Take a cruise along the Huangpu River and visit the stunning Jade Budha Temple. This excellent well-rounded tour of China has monthly departures from March through to November and is the perfect choice for a first time visit!
