Hello From China
14th September 2009

Hi All

Travelling in China is going really well I started in Beijing where I visited Tienamen Square, The Forbidden City, Summer Palace and went for a 10K walk along the great wall which was great fun.

Next I went down to Xian to see the Teracotta Warriors and climbed Mt Hushan which was over 1600 metres above sea level. It was so high I was level with the clouds.

After this I went down to Chengdu and Chong Qing where I visited lots of tombs, temples and even a panda zoo before taking a cruise down the Yangtze river to see the three gorges which were absolutely massive.

At the moment im in a place called Luoyang where I've just been to see the Longmen Grottoes which are a series of temples constructed within the cliff side.

Hope everyone back home is ok, speak to you soon

Ian
