Tour Sights Beijing Presentation.
Over
the next few months I will put together a briefing for each of our destinations
giving a breakdown of the places and sights we will see and any other information that I think may be useful.
The presentation of Beijing is quite large because of all the history and other information, the following presentation on other destinations will not be as large.

I hope this has given you a bit of an insight into what we will be seeing in Beijing. It is a city of many faces with a fascinating historical background, which at times can be overwhelming. But to understand the Chinese character one has to savour the longevity of it’s history and the rise and fall of the fortunes within it. Modern China is a continuation of this process which will see it as the leading power in our world, in the not too distant future.
