“CHINA IS MADE” What can you occupy yourself during 19 days? For example to have 57 meals, to attain your sub after salary, to have 152 hours of sleep and as many hours of work… Or travel to faraway China and to visit Longmen grottos with hundreds of thousands carved Buddha’s (the tallest is 17, 4 meters high), to visit Shaolin monastery and from the close distance to watch “chi” energy wonders. To stand near dozens of Terracotta army statues (it is more than two thousand years old!), and then at THE Steppe market to buy a wolf’s skin for 60 lt and a fox cap for 20 lt (why is that so?). Climb The Yellow Mountains where your jaws become locked from fear, to visit tenth of pagodas, The Great Xian mosque, to enjoy Hangzhou panorama from White Snake pagoda, to learn psychophysical Ci-gun exercises on a bank of West Lake, and the next morning to take part in a great carnival ( with dragons, Scots, Germans, Russians, Brazilian samba dancers, etc.). To go by boat through China Venice - Suzhou canals and in the evening roam the Old Town and taste the best varieties of Chinese tea from pots with a meter length noses, learn hieroglyphs (Chinese near all do not speak English!) and some words in order to find at least the exit from a museum, taste tortoise soup, fried lizard, half-row fried snake, its skin and the best in the world Peking duck… Be angry with yourself that you took so many things from home with you because at Yabalou market you can buy everything for cents, you only have to bargain, bargain and bargain… To watch stunning panorama of Shanghai at night (“neon sea” and dozens of skyscrapers), read classics Nr.1 – Mao Dse Dung – and be amused by his farsightedness (and how can one control a milliard?), fly kites at Tiananmen square and get lost in Forbidden City, to travel the Great Wall of China (and even its ruins) and then descent from it by slalom wheel track…
We often hear the phrase „Made in China“. But really one should say – „China is made“because such a lot of hard-working and sly people have already created their country and is waiting forward to show the World its perspectives. The Olympics 2008 will take place in Peking. Even now souvenirs of the Olympics are obsessively offered to tourists and leaving China we have seen the biggest world airport being built according to Norman Foster project. Hurry to China now, because in the near future everything will become much more expensive!!
