Reflections:

i learnt many things about the chinese culture today. visited places that has nice scenery. learnt about the history of the places and why those places exists. i have finally seen with my own eyes how the 3 gorges looks like, and indeed it was a great experience, especially the short hike to the top to see the scenery. China is indeed a very beautiful place.
