Perché amerai questo viaggio

  • Trace China’s ancient cultures across one journey.
  • Experience Silk Road history beyond the textbooks.
  • Blend imperial capitals, oasis towns, and frontiers.
  • Combina le icone imperiali imperdibili della Cina con la più profonda portata occidentale della Via della Seta — Città Proibita e Grande Muraglia a Pechino, Bazar della domenica a Kashgar, laghi alpini del Pamir, rovine di oasi a Turpan, Guerrieri di terracotta a Xi'an e finale sul Bund di Shanghai, tutto in un viaggio privato di 13 giorni.
  • Percorri 200 km sulla Karakoram Highway fino al lago Karakul a 3.600 m, dove il monte Muztagh Ata (7.546 m) e il monte Kongur (7.719 m) si riflettono in acque alpine e i nomadi kirghisi servono tè al latte nelle loro yurte in riva al lago.
  • Incontra sei diversi gruppi etnici in un unico viaggio — Han, Hui, Uiguri, Kirghisi, Tagiki e Kazaki — un arco culturale che nessun tour standard in Cina offre.
  • Siediti in uno studio di calligrafia a Xi'an con pennello, inchiostro e carta di riso per un'istruzione pratica, poi porta a casa il tuo rotolo — il tipo di immersione culturale che la maggior parte dei tour descrive ma pochi prenotano realmente.
  • Cammina tra le rovine a forma di foglia di Gaochang, una città commerciale d'oasi più vecchia di 300 anni rispetto a Pompei, prima di entrare nelle Tombe di Astana dove mummie della dinastia Tang, frammenti di seta e semi di grano sono stati preservati dal clima desertico arido di Turpan per 1.400 anni.
