Beijing - user Dick Altena - 26/05/2007
End March 2007 I accompanied a group following the course 'new manager' from institute the Baak, to Beijing and Shanghai. A wonderful experience, but I was suprised by the fact that even with hand gestures the communication was almost impossible.
XS2China was a great tool to help in these situations, in a taxi the sentence 'please drive faster' came in useful several times. It's a real icebreaker and thanks to XS2China we found a cabdriver who was willing to help us the whole in every situation and we managed to ge in some of the venues for the coming Olympics.
XS2China a must have for everybody who wants to discover China!

Chinese address

The Great Wall, symbolizing China’s ancient civilization, is one of the world’s most renowned projects. The wall can be found 75 kilometers northwest of Beijing. Its highest point at Badaling is 800 metres above sea level. Located in Beijing area, the four sections of the Great Walls refer to Badaling in Yanqing County, which is the earliest developed and the most famous part both in China and abroad. It is the outstanding representative of the Great Wall and the quintessence of the Ming dynasty Great Wall. Juyongguan Great Wall in Changping District features “guancheng culture”. The other Great wall has only one section, but Juyongguan Great Wall looks like a complete military castle. The Mutianyu Great Wall in Huairou District is surrounded by high mountains and vegetation rate reaches more than 80 percent.
