spend one month is enough to cover the major cities of China: Beijing, Shanghai, Guilin, Tibet, Sanya and HongKong. The reason to travel these places, Beijing is the capital city of China to see the forbidden city, the great wall, summer palace and Ming Tomb etc, Shanghai is the biggest city to see the Bund, the commencial area, Huihai Rd. Guilin is one of the most beautiful places in China, to see the trepid lake and comely mountain. Sanya is the southern tip of China, the only tropical city with amazing clear seawater and beautiful scenery as well, unique hotspring bath, and Top Notch golf couses etc. Tibet is the holy place to visit, it has Patala Palace and holy lakes with highest altitude, but go to Tibet you need to get the entry permit. finalized you travel journey, need any help write to me sunny@globalsanya.com

yeah...shanghai is really a good place to visit in china...among the places i have been in china,i love shanghai best because of the clean air,beautiful and friendly people plus the city is really amazing with all the variety of buildings...the architectural design is really great.In Shanghai,you can feel the mixture of old and modern traditions.So much to say but I am certain that you won't regret going to shanghai..

When you are upto countryside and experiencing the real old china,then go to yunnan...it's a very beautiful province especially when you get to kunming,dali,lijiang and all through the tiger leaping gorge!There is also this place called xinhuabana in yunnan and it's famous for it's wildlife!I am here in Yunnan now and it's really amazing!

Yeah a month will do but as for me,I would rather maximize a three -month visa if you are given one.....by the way,it's also good to stay in hostels in china rather than hotels to experience the real culture....

#4, you'd better come down to the south. You will discover another amazing place in China. You might have heard about Sanya City, Hainan Province. I think to travel China, Sanya is a mush see place as well. I been to Beijing and Shanghai, both are good and have different features. but for Sanya, it is really a place for relaxation.

I have always been interested in Chinese culture. It is very mesmerizing. I found this video recently about a western woman in Beijing who is proficient in Chinese. She goes around interviewing people (young as well as elderly) about the marriage and dating scene in China. Her questions really gave me a lot of insight into Chinese culture.

To see China and to know it are two very differnt things ... seeing it from Beijing and the main stream is wonderfull but should only be a starting point. To know it you must get off the beaten path and take "The Road Not Taken"

" ... Two roads diverged in a wood, and
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
"

Robert Frost, 1916

China is a huge county with time-honoured history and profound civilization. What's more, there are 55 minority nationalities besides the Han nationality. Every ethnic group observe their own culture, living habits and costumes. Just like a treasure house, there are so much wonderful things waiting for your discovery. Besides the main cities, like Shanghai, Beijing, Guilin, Tibet ,Xi'an, there are lot of other interesting destinations which are worthy of visiting. Such as Pingyao where you can have a look at traditional Chinese architectures. Hangzhou, one of the six ancient capitals; Suzhou, famous for the gardens; Urumuqi, the rich culture of several ethnic groups such as Hui, Uygur, Kazakhs, Mongols and Dhalkas; Turpan and so on. More information could be found in China Spring( http://www.itourchina.com.cn )

***SHORT TERM STAYS IN CHINA***

My friend lives in Toronto and he spends 3-4 months each year in China. One of the problems he has is finding a reasonable place to stay for less than a month. As they say, "Neccessity is the Mother of Invention", his solution is to find partners in various Chinese cities who can provide short term accommodation. Some may even act as guides, teachers or interpreters.

I am helping him to find places in Beijing. A list of short term rentals can be found here:
