China

We went to China as a mom-and-daughter duo and came back with guides nobody else has written. We hiked Jinshanling, slept in a Great Wall watchtower at Gubeikou, dressed in Ming dynasty Hanfu inside an ancient Beijing temple, and stood at the edge of the Avatar mountains in Zhangjiajie.

These are firsthand guides — real costs, what worked, what didn’t, and what most travel blogs skip entirely.
