CHINA
FOR MANY, TRAVEL TO CHINA IS THE FULFILLMENT OF A
LIFELONG DREAM.
Situated in eastern Asia, on the western shore of the Pacific
Ocean, China's continental coastline extends for about
11,200 miles and its vast sea surface is studded with more
than 5,000 islands. It's truly a land of beauty with its poetic
landscapes around Guilin, dramatic gorges along the
Yangtze, and striking mountain scenery.
Fly to Shanghai—The Paris of the East—Walk along The
Great Wall that stretches over 4,000 miles and visit one of
the world's most important archaeological discoveries of
the 20th century – the Terracotta Warriors. For the more
adventurous, experience a rickshaw ride through the
traditional Hutong areas or tour the Three Gorges Dam
and cruise upstream through some of the most dramatic
scenery in the world. Beyond these historical sites and
great wonders, the most enduring memory is often the
charm of the Chinese people.
