Великая Китайская стена, река Янцзы, армия Терракотовых воинов – мы выбрали самых знаковые достопримечательности и интересные места, чтобы вы могли наслаждаться настоящим Китаем с минимальными усилиями.

This Is China. Antique here, up-to-the-minute there, familiar yet unrecognisable, outwardly urban but quintessentially rural, conservative yet path-breaking, space-age but old-fashioned, China is a mesmerising land of eye-opening contradictions.

China is modernising at a head-spinning pace. But the slick skyscrapers, Lamborghini showrooms and Maglev trains are just gift-wrap. Let’s face it: the world’s oldest continuous civilisation can pull an artefact or two out of its hat. Travel selectively around China and tap into a rich seam of antiquity: ponder the legends of the Forbidden City, rediscover your sense of wonder on the Great Wall or try to fathom the timeless expressions of the Terracotta Warriors. Submit to the charms of Pingyao or glimpse Nirvana at the serene Mogao Caves outside Dunhuang. Meander among the historic villages of Wuyuan or wake in an ancient Hakka roundhouse.
