Introduction
'Paint china tours' specialize in small group escorted and tutored tours for those seeking the exciting combination of painting and travel.
Our specially chosen subjects are iconic destinations, giving you the opportunity to paint some of China's most beautiful architecture, and natural landscapes.
An outstanding array of International and Chinese restaurants, such as 'M on The Bund' will be a highlight and add distinctive flavour to this tour.
We will begin in Shanghai, where we'll explore this ultra-modern city's contemporary art scene. We'll dine French, visit galleries and museums, before stocking up on all our art supplies, and heading west for a painting feast.
We'll visit Huangshan , an area famous for its craggy, pine-clad 'Mountain'. After spending a night up on the mountain, we'll spend several days painting in some World Heritage listed Ming and Ching dynasty villages. At night we return to the ancient street of antique and art shops, and delicious local cuisine of Huangshan city.
From Huangshan, we'll move to Hangzhou, to paint the famed West Lake and visit one of China's great Buddhist temples: Linyin, before heading south to Guilin.
Unique for its Karst mountains, Guilin's beauty is almost unreal.
Our subjects will be instantly recognizable, as being from this exotic landscape.
We end our tour in the fabulous city of Hong Kong, with a farewell dinner aboard the famous 'Jumbo' at the 'Top Deck' restaurant.
Join us for a trip that will delight, and inspire you!
