Our first day in Nanjing China

Posted on by

Oriental Salk Lake City tour on our first day!

After a long flight of 15 hours to Hong Kong and then after a 5-hour layover, arrived in Nanjing, another 21/2 hours flight, excited to be in Nanjing again! & 7 UML students started their journey to learn entrepreneurship and explore China, its people, culture and history. On first day in Nanjing, went to Cheng Zhou about an hour and half from Nanjing to visit Oriental Salt Lake city. A wonderful site with many side shows of Chinese tradition & culture, recreation of old town going back 1000 years, took a wild boar ride (!), experienced great food, and did shopping (of course). Overall a great first day to quickly get into new world!

Taste of real Chinese food!

Kind of tired at Hong Kong airport? But anxious to get started!

New experience and all smiles!
