[quote=GRIZ326                 ,31787]I saw an acrobatic show that was exceptional! The threatre also had a magic show but I did not see that (a disappointment because I am a close-up magician). Unless you have really refined tastes for temples and architecture any of them will be impressive.You can probably get a driver for the day at about 300-400 RMB. I do not know if that would include a trip to the wall. Pay them at the end of the day. As for remembrances...consider a jade tea set or jade dragon (6000 RMB range is the size I liked), decorative fans, silk paintings, and of course the list is endless. Hopefully someone will give you some good advice on buying jade items...As for give away gifts for your return, several cartons of Chinese made cigarettes, compressed tea cubes, flower tea, bagged Beijing duck, wooden combs, fans, soap, local leather goods, gold jewelry and so on... I love the tea cups with lids, but transporting them may have unhappy results. The good tea is an especially appreciated gift. Unless you are going to ship the items from China Post, do not burden yourself with HEAVY items unless they will be very special things.[/quote]
