-closer to Great Wall (you could go on Sunday)
As for Saturday night, I've heard the patio at Xiu will be open by then; the patio is pretty nice, though it might be hard to find a place to sit without booking a table.
I was looking forward to your PM....but there's nothing in my inbox. Could you check your sent files and see if the msg went?
So you're saying NOT to stay at the Emperor? We've already made reservations and the first two of our gang are leaving for PEK tomorrow. Since I didn't get your PM, I don't know how bad it is.
I'll look up Xiu and map it out. Thx for the recommendations.
