China travel guide
Antique yet up-to-the-minute, familiar yet unrecognisable, outwardly urban but quintessentially rural, conservative yet path-breaking, space-age but old-fashioned, China is a land of mesmerising and eye-opening contradictions.
This new edition of the most comprehensive guide to China available, features brand new chapters on visiting the Great Wall and travelling around by train, extensively updated post-earthquake coverage of Sichuan and a colour highlights section showcasing the country's food, temples, hiking and festivals.
Inside this book…
- 11 intrepid authors
- 198 maps
- 76 temples & monasteries
- 100s of noodle spots
- Beijing & Hong Kong pull-out map
- Special Great Wall feature
