Here are three slideshows of my three-week trip to China this spring as part of the University of Wisconsn - Whitewater Exploring China Travel Study course.

Choose the 7 min slideshow movie (100 pictures) if you only have a little time. The 13 minute slideshow (200 pictures) has all of the pictures of the 7 min slideshow and 100 more! Choose this if you have more time and interest. For the very interested, see the full 24 min slideshow which has 375 pictures. Music on the slideshows is from Revelin: The beautiful prairie, a CD I bought in Shijiazhuang. Each slideshow has different music tracks.

The trip had 17 students and 3 faculty. We started in Chicago then we flew to Seoul, South Korea to switch planes. Next we arrived in Hong Kong and stayed for a few days. We then traveled by bus to Shenzhen, then flew to Chengdu to see the pandas. Later the same day we flew to Jiuzhaigou near the Tibet highlands area. We next flew to Xian and took a train to Shijiazhuang where we stayed for 6 days at Hebei Normal University. Finally, we took a bus to Beijing where we saw the Forbidden city, Great Wall, and Summer Palace. Enjoy the pictures!
