Dear Reina,
My wife, Doug, and I have just returned from our Beijing-Xian-Shanghai trip and want to thank you and your Beijing and extended suppliers throughout China for the wonderful one week we spent in China and the most dedicated and professional service we received from our guides in Beijing (Alan), Xi'an (Jerry) and Shanghai (Bob) and their respective drivers. I make these comments as a marketing research professional whose practice includes customer service quality fulfillment evaluation. Of particular importance is that all of our arrangements were made with Tour-beijing.com via E-Mail and everything was actually delivered as promised and more.
Best personal regards, Doug Cirruzzo

It is simple and solid with lichen growing in its stone seams. Both of its ends are stone stairs and piers.

Every morning, it is noisy along the grey brick and stone paved streets as well as a series of stone bridges. The tea shops are open to business with tea aroma drifting about; fishers row by buildings and stone piers to reach the covered corridors bythe river to form a fish market. All these are well reflected in the folk song “fresh-water snails are tasty in January, clams are delicious in February, turtle is the most sturdy in March…”
