Many tours to China start in the cities and make their way out on rural paths to China's beautiful countryside and sleepy villages. When in Beijing, be sure to take a stroll through Tiananmen Square and explore the mystical Forbidden City and the Temple of Confucius, while at night, we suggest a trip on the Hai River where you can enjoy a uniquely inspiring view of Beijing's stunning neon skyline. You may want to take in the picturesque town of Wuzhen, nicknamed the Venice of the East; it's built on a series of canals that mirror the ancient stone bridges and traditional buildings above. Of course, no trip to China is complete without a visit to the Qin Shi Huang Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum: home to Emperor Qin Shi Huang's terracotta army, whose task it was to protect the emperor's entry into the afterlife. It was made a UNESCO site in the 1980's and is a must-see for anyone serious about Chinese culture and history.
