[quote=HOXA61,392127]We are interested in most things apart from hiking, fishing and beach bumming.

We prefere a city with charachter and atmosphere before a city just dotted with sights. Please, don't misunderstand me, often these two are no contradictions but I think you get my point. We love cities where you can just hang around/walk around aimlessly rather than seeing a lot of "must see sights". We do visit museums and temples on our travels but they are not our main interests. More interested in markets, tea houses/coffee shops with nice settings and athmosphere, daily street life, architecture and FOOD! Hate shopping.

Beautiful scenery is of course always nice but for us it is enough to see it from a train or bus window on our way from A to B. Hardly never do daytrips to water falls or lakes and such. Have seen a lot of water falls in my life. ;-)

Love train travel, hate flying.

Beijing and Shanghai are given since we fly in/out of these two cities. Xi'an is also more or less given in our itinerary. I have visited both Beijing and Shanghai before but that was TWENTY years ago. I guess I will recognize the Forbidden City and The Bund but that will probably be it! For my friend it is his first trip to China.[/quote]
