China
China’s cultural riches and 5000 years of tumultuous history place it, without doubt, among the world’s greatest travel destinations. The Great Wall, Xian’s Terracotta Army, the Forbidden Palace and Tiananmen Square: the very names reverberate with history and legend. China’s paradoxes are many: Shanghai’s skyscrapers contrast with Beijing’s historical treasures, while in rural provinces mechanisation has not yet reached many traditional farming villages. China is a vast country with many cultural, historical and natural wonders, 23 of which have already been declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites.Refine results
