Hello pwd_trawler-ga:

It is a pleasure to answer your interesting question. As a travel
consultant, I have advised many of my fellow travelers on their visit
to China. I will take this as an opportunity to suggest a perfect 10
day intermarry to China with the top ten places to see. I will try to
be concise and as clear as possible so that the relevant material is
not confusing.

Allow me to present three different 10 day intermarries so that you
may choose the one according to your taste.

Please refer to this map for an overview of the travel routes.

Once you get yourself acquaint with the map, please visit the
wonderful website of China National Tourist Office at
http://www.cnto.org/aboutchina.asp and click on the individual cities
that I will mention from the right hand side menu where it states
?city attractions?. Once you are on the city page, scroll down where
it says ?featured attractions? to read about the most famous
attraction. Also notice that beneath every featured attraction there
are smaller pictures of other tourist spots in that area. Click on
those smaller picture icons to get more information on other spots in
and around that city.
