Finally back from China. Survived the unbearable cold weather, the oily food, the long bus rides, and most importantly, their DISGUISTING toilets. 99% of them are squat-type, 70% of those either doesn't have flush or has flush that doesn't work due to the cold weather. Luckily the hotels we stayed in were good (settled for nothing less that 4 stars). It was a scenic trip where we had a chance to be close to mother nature and enjoy her creations of mountains, rivers, waterfalls etc..
