China

CHINA is a country of vast natural beauty and majestic man-made wonders that simply must be experienced up close to fully appreciate their essence. Antique yet up-to-the-minute, familiar yet unrecognizable, outwardly urban but quintessentially rural, conservative yet path-breaking, space-age but old-fashioned, China is a land of mesmerizing and eye-opening contradictions. China may be modernizing at a head-spinning pace with its slick Skyscrapers, Lamborghini showrooms and Maglev trains but the world’s oldest continuous civilization woos you with some of its history, geography and topography like no other country can.

China is vast. And massive. You’ve just got to get outside to experience this marvelous country. The never-ending culinary adventure is possibly the most enticing aspect of traveling in China from where you will return with highly stimulated taste buds and much-cherished gastronomic memories.
