JAISY Points: Join Date: Jan 13, 2007 Status: offline	My husband is going to Zhuzhou for business next month and i plan on joining him. We would like to do some touring from there. We will only have a week or so. I believe we are an easy train ride to see the terracota warriors, am I correct? Where should we go from there? Are we too far fron Beijing to make it feasable to go there? I am interested in the historical sites and would love to see the Forbidden City and the wall. Should we concentrate on sites in the more immediate area? Is there anything to see in Zhuzhou? I was thinking of perhaps hiring a local guide to take me on a tour during the day while he is at work. Any suggestions will be wonderful. I am feeling way over my head on this one!

Cheers!

With only one week I would suggest you book your travel in advance, or you might waste valuable time, either from your home country or once you arrive in China at a travel agent. Why not book it through this website? You can find train and plane schedules here too... if you haven't found it there is a plane icon and a 'search icon' at the top. The train schedules are on the search page that it takes you to.
