Overview
of China
Travel
to China is a life time experience and a better way
to understand China. Only when you are there, you may
start to appreciate and understand what a difference
to live in a nation with a population of 1.2 billion
China
offers variety choices for visitors. If you are interested
in Chinese history, Chinese culture and Chinese scenery,
your trip will be very fulfilled and very interesting.
If you want to enjoy a peaceful sunshine beach holiday,
there are plenty of tourist areas along the coastal
line, which have unspoiled beaches and luxury hotels
for visitors. In Hainan Island, the beautiful Sangya
beaches are opened whole year around and there is no
winter in this island. If you want excitements and nightlife,
stay in big cities. There are many places every night
for international gathering. If you are adventurers,
go to remote areas to watch wild life or visit minorities
to see how they live in the hillsides or desert. If
you are sporty, take a cycle trip along the countryside,
enjoy the rural life and meet with Chinese people along
the rout.
You
may have heard or read a lot about China from books,
newspapers, magazines and TV programs. Some of them
are true but most of them are out of date, incorrect
or even false. China is different from many of your
previous experiences and may amaze you in many ways.
This is what China is!
This
country is changing and progressing every day. Yet it
is still a developing country. After the economic reform,
most of the developments concentrate in major cities
and remote areas are still very backward. China is a
very populated nation and people have to cope with the
crowded environment. Foreign visitors may not get use
to the mentality of the people and sometimes become
frustrated with the situation, which they never experienced
before. Basically Chinese are reserve, peaceful and
nice. They are very polite too but in their own way.
When a foreigner is willing to take a more positive
attitude to recognize the difference, the trip will
become worthwhile or you may ruin your trip completely
by unreasonable expectation and misjudgment of the people
in general.
