Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: First book about 2008 Summer Olympics and travel in all co-host cities in China Comment: I plan to go to see the Olympics Games in China this August. As far as I know, this is the first book ever about 2008 Summer Olympics and related travel in all of the Olympic co-hosting cities in mainland China. The book not only talks about Beijing, Shanghai, but also includes other cities such as Qingdao, Qinhuangdao, Tianjin and Shenyang. Full of practical information about scenic spots in these cities, where to eat and shopping, etc. Besides Beijing, I would like to explore other cities including Qingdao and Qinhuangdao. I am very glad to find that this book has useful information about these cities. It is a great travel guide book about China! More Reviews
