Beside studying in-depth the ancient horoscope, there are many other reasons you might want to visit China; the amazingly diverse landscapes, the hospitable people, the ethnic and cultural diversity, extensively rich history, Mandarin language, the food, ancient calligraphy along with the veritable immensity of its terrain, offers so many travel options that you could spend your whole life here and still not have seen it all.
To visit any new place is to actually expand your horizons, and China’s unbelievable multiplicity allows you to enjoy an abundance of new experiences and will change you forever.
If you have a week or one month, travelling solo or with your entire family, here are a few of the countless fascinating regions and sites to consider.
For only a week, it is best to enclose yourself to just one or two of the primary destinations. Beijing and Xi’an, Beijing and Shanghai, Shanghai and nearby Suzhou and Hangzhou, or if you’re less intent on culture (or visiting with your children), Hong Kong and Yangshuo, are practical options.
(Did you know? The mortar used to bind the Great Wall’s stones was made with sticky rice!)
(Did you know? Leshan Giant Buddha,the gigantic stone statue, has 5.5-m-long eyebrows
)
If your visit is for 3 weeks or more, you have plenty of time to explore the side of China that emphasizes more on its everlasting natural beauty as well as its rather more temporary, cultural splendor.
(Did you know? The Shilin Stone Forest is over 270 million years old)
At all costs avoid the May and October Holidays, and the Chinese New Year.
All forms of transportation are booked solid and the popular destinations rapidly become extremely chaotic. Have you come across a wonderful location in your travels in China? Please tell us where it is and what it’s like in a comment below. VIDEO: Scenic beauty of China
