My dear Julia,

Ni hao!

well we are back after a truly wonderful experience in China - Lhasa & Shigatse. All thanx to your meticulous planning and conceived itineraries. i must acknowledge that you had wonderful patience in formulating as many as 6 or 7 itineraries, including all the alterations that i could suggest, as many people who had themselves been to China interacted and shared their views with me.

In Tibet, I experienced a lot, I climbed up to Potala Palace, the former political and religious center of Tibet as well as the landmark of Lhasa, I visited Tibetan Temples and got in touch with mysterious and exotic religious culture, also I enjoyed the purified scenery at Namtso, one of the Holy Lakes of Tibet…in a word, the trip benefit me so much!!

I was amazed by the distinctive culture and austere life in this very religious region, also the mysterious Potala Palace rising high over the city of Lhasa gave me a sense of inferiority, and I witnessed the famous Tibetan hospitality, and greeted by them in their traditional way, and feast on traditional Tibetan cuisine, I found I was one of them.

Thank you again for all of your help to make our trip a wonderful memory for a lifetime.

Take care,
