It ended up being the final destination of our trip. We were supposed to spend two-three weeks three. We ended up spending one full month. We had planned to go to Beijing, Shanghai and then all the way to Lhasa. We ended up visiting Beijing and Shanghai as well as very rural areas in Hunan province, multicultural Gansu province, historical Xi’an in Shanxi province, and enchanting Jiangsu province.<br /> If you have followed us so far, you will have expected this post with an attempt of a summary of our Chinese experience in seven questions. </p></div> </div> <div> <div>Tags</div> <div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/35" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">#Asia FW’17</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/120" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">China =</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/23" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Travelling</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/71" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Train exploration</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/32" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Learning</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/42" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">questions</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/66" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Answers</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/67" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Sharing</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/68" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Smiling</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/69" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Roots</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/29" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Connections</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/121" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">monastery</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/122" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">farming</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/62" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">SocEnt</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/123" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">huge</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/124" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">diverse</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/125" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">portable knife</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/126" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">beard</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/127" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">agriculture</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/128" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">club</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/129" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">smoking</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/130" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">internet</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/131" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">WeChat</a></div> </div> </div> Sat, 13 Jan 2018 11:48:02 +0000 alessandra 24 at http://abcity.org Our Mongolian experience in a snapshot http://abcity.org/blog/our-mongolian-experience-snapshot <span property="schema:name">Our Mongolian experience in a snapshot</span> <div> <div>Image</div> <div> <img property="schema:image" src="/sites/default/files/styles/resp_im_685/public/2017-11/abcity_website_00_mongolia.jpg?itok=G8qBMfqr" width="685" height="320" alt="Mongolia flag with assessment criteria" loading="lazy" typeof="foaf:Image" /> </div> </div> <span rel="schema:author"><span lang="" about="/user/4" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">alessandra</span></span> <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2017-11-14T03:18:35+00:00">14.November.2017 - 04:18 CET</span> <div> <div>Summary</div> <div><p>A couple of weeks ago, we wrote that it was not easy to put our <a href="http://abcity.org/blog/our-russian-experience-snapshot">Transsiberian experience in writing</a> and make a summary of it. Well, it's even less easy to summarise our Transmongolian one! Very dense, very much changing every day. From a Ger to an apartment on the highest floor in the middle of Ulan Bataar. From chaotic Ulan Bataar to silent Sainshand. From a cafeteria where you can only get rice after they pour huge quantities of a meaty sauce on it, to the BEST vegan food we had on our trip so far at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/LunaBlancaRestaurant/">Luna Blanca</a>!</p></div> </div> <div> <div>Tags</div> <div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/35" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">#Asia FW’17</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/70" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Mongolia</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/23" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Travelling</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/71" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Train exploration</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/32" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Learning</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/42" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">questions</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/66" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Answers</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/67" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Sharing</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/68" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Smiling</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/69" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Roots</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/72" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Ger</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/73" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">games</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/74" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">house</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/75" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">traffic</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/76" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">desert</a></div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/29" property="schema:about" hreflang="en">Connections</a></div> </div> </div> Tue, 14 Nov 2017 03:18:35 +0000 alessandra 19 at http://abcity.org
