China Historical Culture Tour 12 Days 11 Nights

Most China tours hit the highlights and move on. This one goes further, west into the desert along the old Silk Road, where the Great Wall ends at a fortress in the sand and Buddhist caves hold a thousand years of painted history. You will spend a full day working alongside keepers at a giant panda base, stand before the Terracotta Warriors, walk the Great Wall at Mutianyu, and cross the country by high-speed rail and domestic flights. Twelve days, five cities, and a route most travelers never see. No forced shopping stops.
