China is a region with one of the longest histories and oldest civilizations in the world. It has a history of over five thousand years and has made impressive advancements in architecture, arts, cuisine and language.

China is very large and has many areas for people to explore. It has over 56 nationalities all of which have their own culture, music and traditional customs.

Touring China can be an eye opening experience. Traveling in the People's Republic of China from north to south, from east to west, you can enjoy exploring in beautiful nature, seeing different people living different lifestyles, and hearing the different dialects. Destinations of interest are Beijing, Nanjing, Xian, and others for their rich heritage in such areas as architecture and language.

Hainan Island, refered to as "Hawaii of the Orient" is located off the south coast of mainland China. It is China's only tropical paradise and because of this, is extremely popular with mainland Chinese, as well as those from Hong Kong and nearby Asian countries. During the past few years, the Chinese government has heavily promoted Hainan Island as a destination to rival the traditional hotspots of Asia. Because of this, world class resorts, beaches, and golf courses are plentiful on Hainan Island. In addition, the ability to visit traditional Li and Miao cultural villages, hike among lush tropical rainforests and mountainsides, and visit significant cultural artifacts from long ago dynasties, has had a signficant affect on tourism on the island. The Chinese and Hainan governments intend to continue to spend a great deal of money on infrastructure (December 2004 completion of Hainan to mainland China train; and, around the island expressways for cars and buses) and promotion of Hainan Island to ensure that Hainan Island becomes a tropical paradise to rival all in the world.

The Republic of China (Taiwan) also has many options for tourists, including the cities of Taipei and Kaohsiung.

Chinese is one of the hardest languages to learn and speak in the world. Now English has become more and more popular in China, but still most Chinese people do not understand English. If you go touring in China, you better learn some simple Chinese, such as restaurant (fan dian), bathroom (ce suo), thank you (xie xie).
