- China National Tourism
Office. "China is forever linked to its ancient
civilization, friendly people, and many of the world’s
most revered treasures, such as The Great Wall,
Terra-Cotta Warriors & Horses and the Yangtze River.
Today, one can also find spectacular architecture and
towering skylines in Shanghai and Beijing (site of the
2008 Summer Olympics), a wealth of luxury accommodations –
and as always – exquisite cuisine.
Come and see why China is drawing millions of visitors
from all over the world. And, why each and everyone of
them returns home smiling :)...
Visitors are often surprised to find out how modern China
really is. Since the early 90's China has been in the
middle of a building boom and infrastructure upgrade that
has brought its tourism industry up to Western standards
almost overnight.
Tourist facilities and transportation in large cities are
almost on the same level as of the United States. All
major cities and tourism centers have undergone a total
metamorphosis in visitor comfort and transportation
facilities. Complaints of poor facilities, service or
transportation have all become memories of the past.
Today you can tour China with ease and safety (the crime
rate is very low there), stay in comfortable 4 & 5-star
hotels, try new Chinese delicacies, enjoy familiar Western
cuisine, shop in modern designer boutiques, or explore
centuries-old markets and shopping arcades. You can tour
the countryside in modern motor coaches, relax in first
class train compartments, or speed to the next destination
by jet while exploring one of the oldest cultures of the
world, and seeing some of the most extraordinary sights
any where and there is much to see in this vast country of
1.3 billion people."
