For many years, China has been a country shrouded in mystery that has only recently begun to open its doors to visitors. It's a place of almost unimaginable size and diversity, which can offer teeming metropolises and breathtakingly quiet countryside. There are villages where life hasn't changed in centuries close to cities where the past is constantly being forgotten and replaced.
From Beijing to The Great Wall of China, and from the Gobi Desert to the Himalayas, China would take forever to truly explore, and even longer to understand.
With astonishing architecture, and plenty of natural beauty that it compliments, it is practically another world, where almost a quarter of the planet's population live, and yet where you can always find space. China is a destination like no other, and a place that begs to be discovered.
The list of attractions in China is endless, Beijing on its own has enough to see to occupy a person for weeks, but some of the highlights of the country are the Majestic Great Wall of China; the Terracotta Warriors near Xian; Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City in Beijing; The bustling, impossibly modern fast paced city of Shanghai with its great shopping and nightlife as well as the worlds tallest building; The quiet and scenic area around Guangxi Province.
You can get cheap deals on flights to China's main cities throughout the year, and once there, there is a staggering amount to do and see, making China a memorable and unique destination. The best way to visit the country, is to sign up for an extensive tour seeing the main sights, and many people do this, and couple it with a few nights in Hong Kong at the end of the trip in order to experience that city as well.
