Arsenal midfielder Andrey Arshavin says he's enjoyed their tour of Asia.
It is the first time Arsenal have visited the Far East as part of their preseason.
"Normally pre-season is the toughest time of the year for every player," Arshavin told arsenal.com. "But I think a trip like we are doing at the moment is really good for everyone - for players, for staff, for fans, for the whole club.
"That's why I'm happy that Arsenal are doing something like this for the first time since Arsène Wenger joined Arsenal.
"Maybe for preparation it's different because we are travelling a lot and there is no time to train twice a day, like we would do normally. But for the players it's better, because we are not based in just one place and only training.
"Out here we have had the chance to travel, meet different people, see the reaction from the fans, and see a different culture. For players, that's really good."
