China
China is one of the fastest growing economies of the world and is more than just a country that produces cheap goods. It is a great tourist destination of all budgets. A hugely populated country but with fantastic infrastructure, there is so much to explore here. To completely understand what makes this country so great, you must spend atleast a few months here – and even then, you will only scratch the surface. There is so much to do here.

Cruise on River Li & Yangshou
A ride on River Li from Guilin to Yangshou takes about four hours – but you bring back memories enough for a lifetime!
