    Great places to visit in China

    I'm moving to China next week and have a couple of weeks before the term starts. Looking at the Lonely Planet, it's pretty overwhelming to be honest- so many exciting destinations! Stating the bloody obvious: Chine is fookin' massive! I'll be in Shandong province, anyone been and if so what local sights should I check out? In particular, any good hiking routes about?

    I also try to turn this into a photothread if the internet allows it- I'm guessing the whore ads upset the The Grand Poobah at Firewall HQ

    Tai Shan should probably be on your list of destinations. Probably be crowded though.

    Kunming Province is currently at the top of the list but will have to wait for a longer holiday.
    Mt Laoshan looks like the first ideal trip

    yeah, all around KMG and Yunnan. Dali, Lijiang, Degen.....good spots, great for hiking around. If you're going beyond Dali give yourself a little extra time to acclimate to the altitudes.
