DH and I would like to go to China sometime in March/April. We would like to visit Beijing Shanghai and maybe Ghanzou/Foshan for only a few days . It would also be nice to visit Hong Kong but would it be too much for a 2 week trip.

Since we have a baby we are not planning on any tours except for maybe seeing the Great Wall if possible.

We have a very relaxed quiet baby (so far!) who isn't a picky eater and I am still bfing her. She loves to be in her baby carrier and we are planning on bringing an umbrella stroller. I've just never been to china and am wondering how many days we should plan to stay in each city and if we could also have time to Hong Kong as well. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi there, we lived in China (in Shanghai) for about a year when my daughter was a baby so I can try to give you some tips. I found it quite easy to get around with her in the baby carrier when in Shanghai. Most of the touristy places get too crowded to easily push a stroller through. We did a weekend trip to Beijing (3 days) and hired a driver to take us to all of the major sights. We had the stroller with us but mostly used the baby carrier (our driver also acted as a tour guide and was able to tell us when things would be stroller-friendly). He brought us to the Forbidden City, Great Wall, Olympic Village (drive by only as we were short on time), Tiananmen Square, and Temple of Heaven. I can forward you much more information via email if you would like (I think I even still have contact information for the drivers we used).
