I have seen Xi’an but I am planning to make a quick trip to Beijing as well. Xi’an was pretty good but would of been more enjoyable if I hadn’t gone during the heart of tourist season. 

Thanks for your help. I was able to visit most of the places you suggested.  I really enjoyed Hong Kong Park. Kowloon Park was interesting too but is showing some wear and some areas were being shut down for repairs. The best part of all was just being part of the street-life in a wonderful world city. 

Thanks for the advice. I found the botanical gardens to be a nice collection of species and spaces and I almost entirely avoided the rain. If you have been in Kunming during the drought years you would be surprised to know that it has been a very wet summer.
