China Holidays

The first impression about ancient China is that you are visiting a country that is becoming modern. The capital Beijing is an example of this evolution: symbols of the country like the imperial palace within the Forbidden City or the Great Wall are surrounded by luxury restaurants, fashion bars and hotels for any budget. The country is full of history and traditions and the Great Wall, in particular, is a stunning monument, with its 6,350 km of length.

You’ll get a similar feeling if you visit Shanghai, the capital of industry and commerce. It is considered the gate to the Western world, because of its relationships with Europe and North America. Another tourist destination is also Hong Kong, another big city with great nightlife and a wide offer of restaurants and shopping malls.

Besides these big modern cities, China offers diverse natural landscapes: from the Himalayan mountains to the Gobi desert, travellers can find what they’re looking for. Another top destination is the Silk Road, where you can follow the tracks of Marco Polo, discovering an artistic heritage shaped by the mixture of merchants from different countries.
