Dear Ms. Mary Ma,
I am back from China now and would like to take a moment out of my busy schedule to let you know that your company and your guide Rogin Lee are fantastic. Rogine made my tour of China, his depth of knowledge is incredible and his presentations and introductions were indepth and interesting. Rogin presented China's past and present in a new light. This China tour with Rogin surpassed what I was expecting from any China tour company. I would like to extend my thanks to yourself, Rogin Lee and Mr. Wong, the driver.
Sincerely,
Lee A. Gravesen

Chinese Residence
Ayiwang – Chinese Folklore
Ayiwang is the Uygur residence. The house are all connected together, with yard around them. The front room with a skylight is called Ayiwang, also known as summer room, which serves as the living room as well as reception room. The back house called winter room is the bedroom, usually without a skylight. The plane arrangement is very ingenious.
Mongolian yurts – Chinese Folklore
The Mongolian felt tent in northwest China is called Mongolian yurts. The wooden wattles are fastened with leather thongs and studs to form a fence-like structure. Each part of the yurt is ingenious and quite convenient to dissemble and carry.
The diameter of a small yurt is about four to six meters, with no pillar inside, while the bigger one needs two to four poles to support the yurt. There are thick felts on ground of yurts. Every yurt has an opening on the top, and there is usually a stove under it.
Diaofang – Chinese Folklore
Disofang (Stone Chamber) is the most popular kind of dwellings in Tibet and some areas in Inner Mongolia. The height of the dwelling varies from two the three storey. Built mostly of stone and earth, they look like Diaolou (blockhouse), and hence got the name of Diaofang.
The first floor is often used for livestock and poultry, and the second is retained as bedrooms, living rooms, kitchen and storehouse. Some have a third floor for the family sutra hall and the balcony.
The nomadic Mongolians and Tibetans also live in tents, which are convenient to assemble and unassembled.
Cave Dwelling of Northwest China – Chinese Folklore
Cave dwellings are mainly distributed in central and west provinces like Henan, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Gansu and Qinghai, where the loess is of great depth. The loess has little seepage and a very strong vertical nature, which provides a very good precondition for the development of cave dwellings.
The cliff cave dwelling is an earth cave dug horizontally along the vertical earth cliff. Residence built in this way saves raw materials and requires less complicated technology. The cave dwelling is cool in summer and warm in winter.
