China has fascinated travelers from all over the world for thousands of years with its rich history, exotic culture and more recently, its modern and fast-paced development. It is home to some of the world’s largest ports, with the pioneering city of Shanghai facing the East China Sea and served by an efficient turnaround port. Visitors can marvel at the myriad attractions and ancient cultures which openly present themselves in Beijing.
Visits to antique street markets, cooking classes and a lesson in Tai Chi in a temple are experiences few relate to Beijing, yet provide the best connection to its long and fascinating historic culture.
