I am coming to China with wife and kids - 11 years and 5 years for 4-5 days. Which are the places where kids will enjoy and also have some good shopping malls.

Mr.Rain replied:
Will you come to Beijing. I think kids do not like history, so historical places will not be their interests. You can take them to some amusement park such as Beijing Happy Vally. For some good shopping malls, suggest u go to Wangfujing Street. There are many good stores.

Well, as a typical northern city in China, Harbin is extremely cold in December. It is an ice city. When you go there at that time, you can join in many ice festivals. For more, you can see in this page:

Mr.Leo replied:
The best and easiest way from Pingyao to Qiao Family Compound is to take a minibus or hire a private car to Qi County at Pingyao Railway Station. Qiao Family Compound is located at Qiaojiabu Village in Qi County.

Ms.Evelyn(China) replied:
Hi, Mr. jain sahab, you want to visit Lhasa in Tibet, Beijing, Shanghai, Huangzhou, Harbin and Guangzhou, right? (My spellings are right.)
As a foreigner, you cannot enter Tibet as an individual. If you want to visit Lhasa, you should apply for Tibet travel permit and join a group tour.
But you can visit Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Harbin and Guangzhou freely. Beijing is your first choice. It's the capital of China. There are many attractions well worth visitng in Beijing. You can visit the Forbidden City, Summer Palace, the Temple of Heaven and the Badaling Great Wall. Shanghai is also very good. I think these destiantions are all very nice. Hope you have a good trip in China.
