Discover China and a land so filled with contrasts that every visit, every destination, every encounter is a chance to be surprised and intrigued. This is a country of seemingly limitless possibilities. The place that invented fireworks and umbrellas, kites and the abacus continues to astound visitors with constant invention and reinvention. Here modernity and tradition intertwine and produce stunning architecture, succulent cuisine, and fascinating cultural expressions from Chinese opera to indigenous handicrafts. Progress and conservation also seek some sort of harmony, particularly when it comes to protecting and fostering future generations of that most adorable icon of China—the giant panda. In this country the span of centuries—indeed millennia—finds expression in wonders big and small, from the Great Wall to unexpected temples in hidden corners and quiet moments of contemplation in placid parks. As for the enormity of 1.3 billion people—such statistics are quickly forgotten in a friendly greeting, in outstanding personal attention, and in the fascinating exchange that occurs between host and visitor every day. China is a land of contrasts, and that is what makes it so alluring.
