1. When Chinese Leaves Fall

Trips@Asia

This unique autumn trip begins and ends in two of the best known nature reserves of China. The first is Jiuzhaigou, internationally recognized as one of the most beautiful nature reserves in the world, and the latter is Zhangjiajie which was brought to the public attention as it served as the background for the Hollywood hit movie, Avatar. These two nature reserves consist of dense forests, and thus, when autumn arrives, they stand in beautiful autumn foliage. In between these two magnificent sites we travel just below the Tibetan Plateau, where communities of Tibetans managed to avoid the political turbulences often stirring the Tibetan plateau. These communities have therefore managed to better maintain their unique traditions and way of life. We will travel amidst beautiful villages, and get an in-depth insight to Tibetan culture.

I traveled with these guides through a different tour company in 2016 to Lhasa, Tibet and the surrounding areas for 2 weeks with a group from my Buddhist temple. We visited many holy sites and our guide Nyima was incredibly knowledgable. We joked with him that he must go home and study every night and he admitted that he does. He wants to make sure he has the most accurate and up to date information possible. He was friendly and accommodating and a joy to travel with. I have kept in touch with him over these past few years and I hope to travel with him again soon.

The flexibility to chose locations that suited our wants and abilities was great. Hiro San was very quick to put together an itinerary that accommodated a family with a stroller-baby (no monkey park due to long unpacked walking paths). Taking in the beautiful temples and view of the Kyoto from the west was breath taking and the guide was able to explain many things we as new Japanese learners could not read or know through cultural knowledge. Overall a great experience, a wonderful and lively guide, and some great memories.
