  • Our CEO Dr. Elaine Ruiz López visits Swan Lake and creates Chinese Art, Beijing China-4/16/19-4/19/19: “Swan Lake, an unexpected surprise, with a peaceful lake filled with a dozen Swans, a Stork and ducks and scenery framed by weeping willows and cherry blossoms. It was beyond imagination and felt like walking into a Chinese painting. The inspiration for our journey to China are the past 13 years where are our high school scholars who are required to complete a two year Mandarin course and learn from their Mandarin teachers the language, Chinese history, culture and art. They prepared presentations for our trip and we look forward to sharing our experiences with them.” #ILCHS2019China #Beijing #SwanLake #ChineseCalligraphy

  • Our CEO Dr. Elaine Ruiz López visits The Panda House and The Summer Palace: Ni Hao and Zao Shang Hao! The Panda House at the Beijing Zoo was a great change of pace and relaxing as climbing was not required. We traveled to the Zoo via Beijing Subway, which was at first a challenge, but after 3 trips was manageable and safe, once we figured out the lines and connection points as all writing was written in Mandarin. Trains are clean and orderly with guards at every station and in each car. There are approximately 30 million people who live in Beijing as compared to the 1 million that live in New York City and it was quite impressive how orderly and efficient large crowds move in and out of the trains. Our stop led right into the Zoo. The Panda House was a show stopper.” #ILCHS2019China #Beijing #ThePandaHouse #BeijingZoo #TheSummerPalace

  • Our CEO Dr. Elaine Ruiz López visits The Great Wall of China, 4/12/19-4/13/19: We visited two UNESCO Heritage sites over a two day period. Our visit to the Great Wall of China did not disappoint and surpassed expectations. As we approached the mountain top it was clear why this world heritage site is of the 7 wonders of the world. The landscape and mountains surrounding the Great Wall and the architecture of the wall itself, was breathtaking. After 1 million workers and 2000 years, the wall completed by the Qin dynasty before the Manchu invasion in 1644. The wall stretches across 400 miles wide. The throngs of people various parts of the globe and from throughout Asia and abroad visiting this site contributed to an amazing experience. #ILCHS2019China #Beijing #UNESCOheritagesites #GreatWallofChina #GreatWall #7wondersoftheworld

  • Our CEO Dr. Elaine Ruiz López visits Bejing China 4/9/19-4/10/19: “We literally flew into the future on a flight path that would take use North West over the Artic Ocean. After a 13 hour flight we arrived to Bejing, China on April 9th exhausted, yet grateful to have arrived safely to our destination. We were greeted by a hotel representative who spoke mostly Mandarin and guided us through China Customs and to an airport limo that awaited. Our driver also spoke very limited English, pleasant and professional and appreciated my attempts to communicate with my limited understanding of Mandarin. We arrived 40 minute later to our hotel and started adjusting to a 12 hour time difference and the fact that it was already the evening of April 9th although we had only departed New York 13 hours earlier on April 8th. Yesterday we visited the Forbidden City and Tiananmmen Square. Without exception, the preservation of the beauty and culture of the Ancient Palaces, home to to 24 Emperors from 1507-1967, is by far one of most impressive sites that represent China’s history and formation through the era of Mao Tse Tung and the end to imperial ruler and the establishment of the People’s Republic of China.” #ilchs #ILCHS2019China #tiananmensquare #forbiddencity #beijing
