Well, Marian, I recently traveled to China on a 17-day trip as a student ambassador. I first went to Beijing, where I stayed for four days and visited a school as well as the Hutong, Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, the Giant Panda Zoo, the Summer Palace, the Great Wall, and many other wonderful places. I then got on an overnight train to Xi'an. We stayed there for two days, I believe. Upon arriving, we were honored at a welcome ceremony at the North Gate, which was fantastic. We then traveled to the Small Wild Goose Pagoda, where were were taught how to paint, Chinese style. Afterwards, were made rubbings from imprints on stone. That night we enjoyed a performance from the Tang dynasty place thingy. I'll finish the rest later.
