The Silk Road To The Future--Legends of China

Testimonial

“On behalf of my wife, Janice, and myself, I just wanted to thank Legends of China (LOC)The Silk Road to the Future for the excellent trip (“Trip D”) we just completed. We have traveled extensively in the USA, Canada, and Europe on previous occasions; but the LOC tour ranks among the very best (if not the best) we’ve ever had. We’ll have fond memories of this one to last a lifetime – or, at least until we go to China again.

I’ve already recommended the trip highly to all my UCSD colleagues. I hope they and many others will partake of this opportunity.

May you have continued success with this extraordinary program. Xie xie!”

Dr. Charles Meliska, Faculty, University of California, San Diego

“I wanted to thank you for running such a well organized and exciting program. I liked the fast paced experience where we got to see many sights. My experience in China was one of the most memorable things I have ever done. At the end of my trip I didn't want to come back to the U.S. and now I'm already looking into a way to travel back to China as well as take Mandarin lessons. The experience left quite an impression on me and I fell in love with China.

I really liked the theme of the trip and it was orchestrated very well. The annual award ceremony was magnificent and I felt truly honored to be able to witness it. Also, getting to know the Chinese students was very interesting and fun. I really enjoyed becoming friends with both the student volunteers on the buses and the students we met on the great wall, lunch, and at the ceremony. Both of our cultures have so much to offer one and another and it was great to make these friends that I hope to see again. I found the lectures during dinner to also be quite interesting to learn even more about China. In short, the itinerary was perfect for me and allowed me to encompass as much of China as possible in a 10 day trip.”

Michael Cecchini, Graduate Student, Johns Hopkins University

“The trip The Silk Road to the Future was absolutely amazing, from the bustling cities to the train ride being able to see some of the Chinese landscape to the majestic views from Heavenly Lake, it was simply an awesome, inspiring, life changing trip.

From the perspective of a traveler the program was splendid. It was obvious to anyone with half a brain that huge amounts of time, effort, and energy went into making this trip work like it did, and it worked like a well oiled machine. I find this to be a truly amazing program, with a genuine and worthwhile cause and mission-World Peace. I am honored to be a part of it, I look forward to staying in touch and strengthening our friendship in the years to come.”

Kyle Hardy, Student, University of California, Los Angeles

“Congratulations to you on the success of the recent The Silk Road to the Future: China-US-Canada Student Affairs Summit in Beijing. The goals of promoting awareness and cooperation were wisely established and well met.

I can only imagine the extraordinary efforts that are needed to organize a venture of this type and want you and your staff to know how much all the work on our behalf was appreciated.

The conference was instructive, the visits in the city were fascinating, and the hospitality was outstanding.

The work that you are doing is helping to create new legends of China! We will certainly consider the invitation to participate again in the future. Best wishes to you from the University at Buffalo and Buffalo, NY, USA! ”

“My family and I have just returned from a seven day trip to Beijing China and it was the most memorable vacation ever. The hotel was exceptional, the staff answered every question and did everything to make our stay one that makes us want to return. The rooms were excellent as well as the breakfast buffet. I wish it could be tomorrow. China is so rich with history and culture, it has changed how I view the world.”
