[quote=CHINAED                 ,7498]We recently returned from a 2-week trip to China.  It was fantastic.  Do not short-change Beijing!  There is so much to do and see there - you won't get bored. Be careful about choosing your Tour Guide - make sure it's someone legitimate (especially so-called "students").  If you need a van driver - I know one who is excellent.  Very reliable, speaks English, and drives an air-conditioned newer Toyota Van.  My sister lives in China and recommended him.  He charges $50 for an 8 hour day.  We used him several days including, a trip to the Great Wall and Ming Tombs one day.  My sister also has a tour-guide she recommends (used when my parents visited last year), but we didn't use him because we were able to do it on-our-own.  Aside from shopping, not much else in Hong Kong.  Shanghai is also a huge city, more of a commercial/business area - but still with interesting things to do/see, with nice areas only a couple of hours away.  But Beijing has more culture and history to offer. You'll have a great time.  Good luck.[/quote]
