About China
The Lonely Planet says: Eagerly assuming its place among the
world's top travel destinations, even more so since Beijing
took centre stage at the 2008 Olympics, China is an epic
adventure. From the wide open and empty panoramas of Tibet to
the push and shove of Shanghai from the volcanic dishes
ofSichuan to beer by the bag in seaside Qingdao a journey
through this colossus of a country is a mesmerising encounter
with the most populous and perhaps most culturally
idiosyncratic nation on earth.
The sheer diversity of China's terrain takes you from noisy
cities fizzing with energy to isolated mountain-top
Ming-Dynasty villages where you can hear a pin drop. Shanghai's
ambitious skyline is a triumphant statement, but it couldn't be
further from the worldly renunciation acted out in Tibet's
distant monasteries.
China is the fastest-changing country in the world. The
events of the last 50 years have altered images of this vast
unknown land and, until recently, many people's perception was
of little more than an overpopulated, oppressed, Communist
country. Fortunately, China has opened up, in its own way,
challenging pre-conceptions. Amazing wealth exists side-by-side
with poverty and the growing middle class are eagerly
exchanging their bicycles for motorcycles and work unit housing
for smart new apartment complexes.
