Easter Study Trip
Our Study Trip to China is an annual visit to Beijing and Guangzhou. This is a fantastic opportunity to visit and enjoy Chinese culture, and practice your Chinese in real-life settings.
- The group will visit two cities (Beijing and Guangzhou) exploring both cities and enjoying a number of world-famous attractions.
- You get a chance to enjoy the culture, meet and talk with local people, and take part in Chinese language and cultural classes to enhance your visit.
- In Beijing, you will be a full-blown tourist, with visits to some world famous locations including The Forbidden City, The Summer Palace, and a section of The Great Wall.
- In Guangzhou, you will spend most of your time on the campus of our partner university, South China University of Technology (SCUT). You will take part in a number of classes and activities to broaden your language and cultural knowledge, while continuing to explore the markets and museums of Guangzhou.
- The trip usually concludes with you taking in the beauty of Guangzhou at night, on a cruise along the Pearl River Delta! You can enjoy all this and much, much more!
