We are no longer in Beijing or with Becca or on a group tour! Going it alone!! Well almost, Declan from Ireland is stalking us to Xi'an a little bit... Since our last entry we did manage to get to the Great Wall! We booked onto a tour where we got to see the Ming Tombs too, and a free lunch! On the bus there we had a commentary, in Chinese, of the sights out of the window... great. When we were at the ming tombs we were given a tour in Chinese with the rest of the coach, the leader woman had ...

Its getting cold in BJ but there is always time to go hiking and explore new places. I finally made my way to Datong to visit the Yungang Caves. At the Feitian hotel where I stayed, I met Mark,a fellow traveller from Oz who had been teaching English in Taiwan for 2.5 years and just came from Mongolia. We travelled together to the caves and beyond. The Yungang Shiku (Cloud Ridge Caves) were carved in sandstone from about AD 460 to 470. They are a product of the Northern Wei Dynasty. The caves ...

Wednesday the 13th of September 2006. Over night bus from Golmud (Geermu) to Dunhuang 78 miles, 11 hours. I found the bus station all right and there was one bus. I knew it was going to the right place by the Chinese characters on the front of the bus. The bag went underneath and we all stood around waiting to be let on. Two girls came up very close to me for a look. They just stood and smiled and didn't try to talk. At 17:50 we were allowed on the bus but all had to take our shoes off and pu...

Nous voici a Datong! Le paysage a completement change, et miracle pour nous, l'humidite est vraiment reduite. C'est tres sec ici, presque le desert, un peu comme la vallee de l'Okanagan. Il continue de faire 33 mais c'est tres supportable.
Datong est une ville est affreusement laide (en fait presque toutes les villes de chine a part Beijing et Suzhou sont plutot laides), mais c'est pas un probleme puisqu'on etait pas la pour visiter la ville mais ce qu'il y avait autour.

This was not the best day of our tour so far..... Woke up in the early hours in Pingyao and the heavens opened...from my back door! It was through the eye of a needle stuff and was consistently arriving every 15 minutes. I couldn't believe there was so much, I felt like I was going to implode!!! This continued for most of they day I'm afraid. We also had a bit of an issue with Geckos Adventures again. Basically they had put us on two buses to Datong that would take 8 and a half hours and then...

... Hanging Temple more like its original construction. Our driver took us back to Datong where we spent a few hours killing time at a McDonalds and various department stores. After dinner we experienced our first tea house. It was a really nice and quiet place where you could have a 2 person room for one hour for 20 RMB ($3) and a pot of any kind of tea. We don't know what exactly we had, but it was warm and that's all we cared about. We headed to the train station to catch our 9:30 ...

... that chill down the spine to see the warriors in person as I did for other frequently photographed sites, such as Angkor Wat or Jiuzhaigou. Instead, I thought Xian's best attraction was the Provincial Museum, which held relics from the 10+ earlier dynasties that called Xian home. I stood in awe next to the many well preserved 1500-4000 yr old relics. For "mere" 500 yr old stuff, the National Palace Museum in Taiwan would be a perfect complement. Xian's most famous dish is ...

... tears to your eyes. Somewhere in those stories will also be the history of all the different types of foods. Xinjiang Province is to the Chinese what Tibet is to us. It is a completely different culture, language, sound, smell and people. When you mention Xinjiang Province the eyes of both southerners and northerners will begin to shimmer and many times you can actually watch as ...

... that small and the ladders would be declared a health hazard in Western countries and would have to be replaced. In fact the entire monastery would be fenced off and would have to be rebuilt according to the governments Occupational Health and Safety regulations! Oh where has the fun gone in our societies! Next stop was the town of Yingxian which is seventy ...

... in a cliff face around one kilometer long in Wuzhou Shan (Wuzhou Mountain) half and hour from what is now known as Datong City. So, get your family and friends together, choose a mountain near your home, grab your shovels and picks and give that ago! Jiang Ni and I spent the evening walking around the very crowded streets around Red Flag ...
