We work closely with Social Welfare Institutes throughout China and Chinese Government department like Provincial Civil Affairs Bureau (CAB) and CCAB to arrange your orphanage visit. With great knowledge, experience and resource, by fully understanding the needs of both adoptive families and government, we have helped many families to visit orphanages of their adoptive children.

Day 3 sightseeing visit

Tea cultural experience (Tea Village visit): With its hills carpeted with rolling tea plantations, its crisscrossing alleys dotted with countless tea houses and one of its most serene mountains housing the biggest tea museum on earth, Hangzhou is the best place to demystify tea culture through real life experience.

Dim sum lunch: A style of Chinese cuisine (particularly Cantonese but also other varieties) prepared as small bite-sized portions of food served in small steamer baskets or on small plates.

West Lake: ‘Sunny water waves its glow,

Misty rain tricks the hill.

Plainly or gaily decked out like Xi Zi,

West Lake is always alluring.’

These are the words composed by the famous Song Dynasty poet Su Dongpo (960-1127). In this poem, he compared the West Lake to Xi Zi, one of the four beauties in ancient China.

Day 4 sightseeing visit

Master of Nets Garden:  It is the smallest of the Suzhou residential gardens, yet it is the most impressive because of its use of space which creates the illusion of an area that is much greater than its actual size. Even more than the architectural achievement is the mood of tranquility and harmony that it embodies.

Tongli Water Town: It is one of the six famous ancient towns to the south of the Yangtze River along with Zhouzhuang, Yongzhi, Xitang, Wuzhen, and Nanxun.
