China is one of the most fascinating countries in the world; full of rich history and culture, where vibrant metropolises from Shanghai to Hong Kong are contrasted with breath-taking natural scenery such as the Yellow Mountains and incredible historical sites such as The Great Wall of China. Your trip can include hiking the mighty Tiger Leaping Gorge to close-up encounters with a Giant panda. Immersive, off the beaten track experiences abound, from fan making to fishing with a Yangshou master. Indulge in some Peking duck in Beijing, or a steaming bowl of Lanzhou noodles at Silk Street washed down with a bowl of rice wine.<\/p>\n
