We’ll be spending the next few weeks in China and I’ll try to post updates on the things/places we see on a daily basis. I’ll also review each resort we stay at, after we leave.
This afternoon we landed in Shanghai and will be visiting Suzhou, Hangzhou, do a Yangtze River cruise for a few days passing the Three Gorges Dam and visit Macau before settling in Hong Kong for a few days.

This trip was planned around a visit to Tibet but China has restricted traveling there for the past few months. If China lifts the restrictions while we are visiting we will try to rearrange a visit to Tibet if possible. However, I don’t think we’ll be visiting during this trip.
We have spent some time in China before but have not visited any of the destinations mentioned above except for Hong Kong.
Chinese Visa’s were no problem to obtain for either me (American) or the girlfriend (Thai) in Bangkok from the Chinese embassy as long as they have your itinerary.
