While Greek writers were scratching their works onto rough papyrus and farmers tilled rocky fields with wooden plows, Chinese historians brushed court records onto fine paper and farmers turned their soils with plows of iron.
While Romans set tables of roughhewn linen and crude glassware, Chinese homes were graced with porcelain and fine silk.

And while medieval armies heaved rocks and fire with cumbersome catapults, Chinese children toyed with kites and fireworks!

China's contribution to mankind's knowledge is well documented. Silk-making, the decimal place, the kite, the wheelbarrow, paper, the seismograph, the stirrup, porcelain, the umbrella, gunpowder, playing cards, immunology, movable type printing - all sprung first from China, often hundreds of years before Western "discovery."
Today, Western technological know-how and factory efficiency flow into a rejuvenated China creating startling contrasts - skyscrapers rise above carpets of rice paddies; Harry Potter DVDs arrive to marketplace in donkey-drawn carts. And so continues this rich interchange of knowledge and discovery between China and the West. What was for centuries the traffic of explorers, merchants, kings and emperors is now open to you, the curious traveler! |

If you've shopped around then you've probably noticed there's almost a day-by-day sameness from one tour company to the next. Strip away the tour company's name and you've got the same tour - often the same tired tour. But Let's Travel China offers a new, fresh choice. And remember...
Let’s Travel China Tours are All-Inclusive!
