During the October holiday we did two trips way out west – the second trip was to the Danxia Landform in Gansu Province, an area of multi-coloured sandstone hills and mountains. The scenery is hard to describe, so click on through to see photos!

During the big October holiday we did a 7-day trip through Xinjiang and Gansu, following a stretch of the Silk Road and visiting the key historic sites along the way. Click through to see seven day’s worth of photos!
