Tour – China – Zhuhai show – Beijing museums – November 2018 – 4Aviation

    Information

    The next edition of the China International Aviation & Aerospace Exhibition at Zhuhai, also known as Airshow China, takes place from 6 to 11 November 2018. The event is generally good for a number of very interesting Chinese military aircraft. We intend to organise a tour to this show and combine the visit to China with a detour via Beijing and visits to, amongst others, the museum of Datangshan. We have organised a similar tour in 2012 and you can read the report of that tour here.

    On Wednesday we will start in Beijing with a visit to the immense Datangshan museum. We hope to bring a short visit to the Great Wall on this day as well (unless all choose to spend more time in the museum).

    On Thursday we will then spend a day enjoying the touristic side of Beijing. We will visit the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, etc. In the evening we will then fly to Shenzen/Zhuhai.

    On Friday, Saturday and Sunday we will visit the show at Zhuhai. While there we will visit the outside locations as well as the show terrain itself. From the outside the sun is in a better position.
