The next day you will walk on the Great Wall of China, the only man-made object visible to the naked eye from space. You and your group will then travel to Xian and take in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and the City Wall in Xian. The next couple of days will be filled with a cruise on the Li River and visits to Guilin and Yuzi Paradise. After your flight to Shanghai, you will travel by train to one of the oldest cities in China, Suzhou and then cruise on the Grand Canal.
