 <\/p>\n

Almost all my life I’ve traveled all over China. \u00a0I\u2019ve visited many cities and places, learned a lot of their traditions, found out impressive ancient culture and become a real lover of Chinese food. In this post, I will give you some tips on how to make the most of your time, and advice on which places to visit during your internship in the land of the rising sun.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

The Great Wall in Beijing<\/strong><\/h4>\n

You haven’t been to China if you haven’t seen the Great Wall.\"zg188\"<\/p>\n

The Great Wall\u00a0<\/i>is\u00a0the longest wall in the world. It belongs to “the New Seven Wonders of the World” and itis one of the most attractive and interesting highlights of China. The wall stretches around 5,000km from China’s western frontier to the east coast, but\u00a0the most beautiful and unspoiled parts are open to tourism close to Beijing.<\/p>\n

Tip: bring with you several bottles of water and smth to eat, because these cost a fortune on the Wall.<\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

The Forbidden City of Beijing<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The Forbidden City\u00a0was th\"Ukrasheniya-natsionalnyie-v-Zapretnom-gorode-e1367\"e imperial palace of the 24 emperors of Ming and Qing Dynasties for 560 years, till 1911. It was the only palace city where common people were forbidden entry.<\/p>\n

The Forbidden City has majestic ancient Chinese architecture, at least 1000 buildings (including palaces, as well as rivers, parks, and lakes). It has over 8,000 rooms originally decorated with dragons, stone animals, lined with yellow and red colors. It is recognized as one of the five most\u00a0important palaces and is certainly\u00a0one of the must-see Chinese highlights.<\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

The Terracotta Army in Xi\u2019an<\/strong><\/h4>\n

I think it\u2019s the most significant archeological discovery of the 20th century.\u00a0This incre\"181584\"dible grave lay underground for more than 2,000 years. It was discovered in 1987 by local farmers in Shaanxi province. The Terracotta army includes about 8,000 soldiers, along with numerous horses and chariots. Each terracotta soldier has different facial features, demonstrating a high level of mastership and imagination of sculptors of those times.swer this question when you appear face-to-face with thousands of soldiers of the past.<\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

Chengdu Panda Center<\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

Chengdu Panda Center\"hug-giant-panda\" has been created to protect the natural habitat of\u00a0giant pandas. The Panda base is easily accessible, as it is located no more than 10 kilometers north of Chengdu on the Futou Mountain. Wild bamboo forests, rocks, caves, lakes and rivers simulate the panda\u2019s natural ecological environment.\u00a0 If you want to learn more about this beautiful animal and even give them a hug, this breeding center should be on your wish list.<\/p>\n

Tips: The best time to visit this panda\u2019s paradise is\u00a0in the morning, during their feeding time between\u00a09 and 10:30. After then, it’s very probable that the pandas will be sleeping all day long.<\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park- Avatar Mountains<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park has become internationally famous since the release\"natsionalnyy-park-chzhantszyatsze_33\" of the\u00a02009 movie \u2018Avatar\u2019.\u00a0The movie was filmed in these mountains and the movie\u2019s editing team simply added the visual effects for mountains to make them look like they are floating in the air.<\/p>\n

The park is massive and you could really utilize every one of the four days by venturing out to different sections.<\/p>\n

Beyond the mountains, you can find a picturesque lake and an underground cave. And if the natural beauty\u00a0wasn\u2019t enough, the region is also home to an ethnic Chinese tribe with unique cultural traditions.<\/p>\n

If you are a real fan of \u2018Avatar\u2019, or just a nature lover, this site of China is going to become your favorite.<\/p>\n
