Bingzhou Hotel - Taiyuan

My God!! <br>What?? <br>That was the funniest and oddest bus I've ever been on! Firstly, It took forever to actually book at ticket! The trains were completely booked out so we dragged our backpacks to the bus station. At the station it took the usual amount of repeating and hand gesturing to get a ticket!<br> <br>"Taiyuan?" "TAIyuan" "TaiYuan"<br><br>Even if you know the name of your destination there's no way in the world you'll pronounce it right. Eventually,once a ...

Z Wutaishanu jsme vyjeli autobusem v 8:10. Cesta do Taiyuanu trvala asi 4 hodiny, vetsina osazenstva ji prospalo - i kdyz personal autobusu se to snazil narusit poustenim nejake cinske superstar neuveritelne nahlas. <br><br>Jedna zastavka na benzinove pumpe. Zacina se zdat, ze toalety na benzinkach budou hlavnimi adepty na cenu "Zachod Julie Hubenakove". Hlavne devcata si porad nemuzou zvyknout na vykonavani potreby pred zraky ostatnich Cinanek ve fronte. O zapachu ani nemluve ...

How to learn Chinese is a frequently asked question. Occasionally, people would like to find a tutor to help them learn Chinese. Actually, in modern times with fast development of internet, online mandarin Chinese seems more ...

June 12th- We got up early Friday morning to do some work before our flight to Taiyuan. After lunch we took a cab to the airport where we got our tickets and boarded China Eastern Airlines. It is a great airline, riding the plane here is extremely convenient and well-organized. I had my doubts, but this was one of the better flying experiences I've had. Our flight was only an hour or so and we got a nice little ham and cheese sandwich ...

We get dropped off at the Qingxu service station at 2:30am. There's a 24hr convenient store, we find a row of plastic seats and tries to make it until the sun comes up. We have been on the road nonstop for 18 hours, have to wait 7 more hours before we can find a bed.

Before arriving in Yichang my son said to keep things simple in this city. As soon as we arrived yesterday we went to the concierge and asked about a tour to the 3 gorges dam. The concierge told us that we could sign for the tour right then. We did paying our 200 yuan on the spot. The only way to see the dam is via an official tour. A little later the confcierge told us that the tour would be a chinese led ...

Taiyuan Do Taiyuanu jsme dorazili kolem sedme rano, tma jako v ranci, protoze ackoliv je jenom asi 900 kilaku od Shenyangu, tak se tu rozedniva o hodinu dyl. Vzduch je desny (a to bylo jeste docela fajn pocasi, o par dni pozdeji bylo hur), fakt desny. Po cistounkem vzduchu a permanentne modrem nebi v Shenyangu jsem povazovala informace o znecisteni vzduchu v Cine za dalsi novinarskou kachnu, ale okoli Taiyuanu je fekt des. Samotny Taiyuan je asi nejohyzdnejsi mesto ...

... I actually liked is how the archaeologists left some of the soldiers un-reconstructed as it was a good indication as to how the warriors were intially discovered. The third pit (Pit 3), which we actually saw second, was smaller with more high-ranking officers unearthed in this section. The second pit (Pit 2) had less warriors than Pit 1, only about 1300, and much work, archaeologically, is still left to be done in ...

... square to this. After getting the bus to the hostel(which was about a 1.5 hour process) i arrived at my hutong(small street) after being asked if i wanted a massage(and i don`t think she meant sports). I arrived at a very quaint hostel with a great courtyard(lotus hostel if anyone is going). You get a really good vibe off of the streets in Beijing well i did anyway, apart from the smell, the spitting in the streets(boys and girls) and the pushing, it is ...

ummm okay so i know that none of you can believe that i went for a whole weekend with only a backpack, but its true, and i loved every minute of it!!!! so we started off on thursday night and took an overnight train to Da Tong, which was about 9 hours, but we slept the whole time so it wasnt bad, and the sleeping on the train was a bit weird but fun, they are just bunks on a halway, there is no door or anything, so if i were alone it may have been strange, but ...
