Sekarang ktrg nak share itinerary and budget ktrg ke China pada awal tahun 2017. Ktrg start kat Chengdu dan seterusnya ke Silk Road iaitu Dunhuang, Jiayuguan, Xian dan patah balik ke Chengdu. Ktrg depends 100% kat public transport macam bus and train je. Hanya tempat2 tertentu or time emergency nak kejar masa je yg ktrg guna taxi. Gerak kat sane sendiri tanpa tourist guide walaupun ktrg tak boleh cakap Chinese langsung. Pergi ke China sendiri ni rasanya lebih mudah and flexible dari kalau ikut tour yg mana khabarnya tourist guide akan paksa singgah ke kedai2 and beli barang kat kedai tu. Itinerary ktrg ni tak packed sangat sebab ade antara ktrg yg diserang demam mase trip kat sana so pergerakan pun agak terbatas.
Boleh click kat link kat bawah ni untuk baca pengalaman ktrg ke sana:
Trip ke China (Long Distance Train)
Trip ke China (Part 1) - Chengdu & Gansu
Trip ke China (Part 2) - Dunhuang
Trip ke China (Part 3) - Jiayuguan
Trip ke China (Part 4) - West Great Wall
Trip ke China (Part 5) - Xian
Trip ke China (Part 6) - Chengdu
Sebenarnya plan asal ktrg nak stop kat Xining dulu mase nak balik dari Jiayuguan (No3) ke Xian (No4) tapi sebab tiket train untuk katil dah sold out so ktrg pun skip je lah Xining and terus je ke Xian. Nampak tak Dunhuang (No2) tu dah dekat dengan Urumqi? InsyaAllah next time kalau ada ticket murah dari Xian, ktrg akan try sampai ke Xinjiang jugak. Bile tu tak tahu lagi tapi dah ade dalam planning. Trip ktrg ni tak sepopular kalau ke Beijing tapi sebab tak ramai yg pergi ke penghujung Great Wall yg terletak kat area western China so ktrg nak terjah situ dulu.

Tapi boleh dapat murah lagi kalau start dari Xian sebab boleh save duit kat long distance train. Makanan pun boleh jimat lagi kalau bawak banyak2 dari Malaysia. Transport pun boleh jimat lagi kalau ktrg tak naik taxi kat Dunhuang & Xian tu. Taxi ke Great Wall je yg diperlukan sepanjang trip ni. Untuk yg ade extra time, sangat2 digalakkan untuk singgah kat Zhangye dan Xining. Harap dapat memberi sedikit gambaran kepada sesiapa yg plan nak ke Gansu. Selamat mengembara!
