Our Trips

China

Beijing to Shanghai

 

Ride the rails betten China's two greatest cities,  to see a city whose glamour and scandal fascinated the world in the 1920's and 1930's ... Noel Coward wrote "Private Lives" whilst staying at the Colonial Hotel in Shanghai, but hopefully you won't just stay in your hotel room like he did. Although Shanghai might even be the place you begin your own best seller?

If arriving to Beijing Central station*  you make your own way to the hotel which is opposite the Railway station on East Chang An Street.
