				$2975*
	HIGHLIGHTS: Moscow, Ulaanbaatar, Gandan Hiid, Beijing and more. This classic journey begins in Moscow, a vast city of palaces and public buildings restored to their former glory. The Cathedral of Christ the Saviour again dominates Moscow's skyline and beneath the city lies the palatial metro rail system draped in chandeliers, mosaics and baroque bas-reliefs. The cobblestones, Red square and the Kremlin itself, the fabled palace-fort of gilded domes where we marvel at the exquisite collection of royal treasures and Faberge jewels and icons in the stunning Armoury Chamber. Aboard the Trans Siberian Railway We settle into life on board, enjoying the company of our fellow passengers and the stunning scenery that we will enjoy for the next 5 nights. First travelling along the Trans Siberian Railway across Siberia's nerve system of 5,000 rivers. We pass over the Ural Mountains which divide Europe and Asia, and we cross the Irtysh and Ob rivers. We continue through Irkutsk, the Paris of Siberia and catch a glimpse of stunning Lake Baikal from the train window. Ulaanbaatar and the Mongolian steppe At daybreak, classic scenes of traditional nomadic life greet us as the train winds impressively across the Mongolian steppe and into the capital. Visit the Zaisan Memorial from which the entire city is visible also to the country's largest remaining monastery, Gandan Hiid. In the afternoon we travel out across the grasslands through the countryside where we spend a night in a traditional Mongolian nomad tent (ger) set amongst spectacular rock formations and wild rolling hills. Among nomadic families and their grazing livestock we can explore nearby valleys or just relax and enjoy the area. We return to Ulaanbaatar for the final night in the capital. The Trans Mongolian Railway to Beijing A morning departure aboard the Beijing Express. We travel over the steppe-lands of Mongolia, and further to the south, the Gobi Desert and towards the Chinese frontier at the border town of Erlian where the train's bogies are changed from a wider gauge used by Russia and Mongolia to a narrow Chinese gauge. In Beijing our sightseeing continues with, among other great sights, an excursion to the Great Wall, built as a defence against the fierce and capable Mongol horsemen; The Wall stretches 10,000 Li across China's mountainous northern frontier. A visit to Tiananmen Square and Mao's Mausoleum is also a must. View our great airfares, travel insurance, hotels and car hire.
