Planning a Tour to China?
By:Lola Adewoyin

Whenever I read historical texts and articles, stories of the ancient civilization dates back to a place in time. That place is China.

People seem to wonder what the Great China looks like, but its only when you tour the historical country, you begin to understand why China holds a lot to ancient civilization and histories. Tours in China varies from different cultural attractions to Chinese cultural sceneries and histories.

If you decide to tour a country like China, it is often advisable to consult an operator who specializes in tours in China to make sure that you enjoy your stay and make the most of your money. Most tour operators in China take time to look for thematic tours and tailor made tours to suit the interests of their customers. They assist in preparing accommodation and transportation all through the itinerary of the tours specially chosen. They provide a local guide who patiently takes customers around the tours of the different historical cities.

The best time of the year to tour China is usually May, September and October. These are the ideal and perfect time for a tourist to move around the borders of the country and visit the tourist destinations in most cities. In June to August, most tourists visit the north and central China because Southern China experiences a lot of rainfall during that time.

The Forbidden City and the Great Wall in the country’s capital Beijing is one of the many places that attract a lot of visitors. It is one of the highly anticipated tours and travel destination of all tourists. Going on a tour to China without stepping in these places is of no benefit to a tourist. Other Beijing tours include the Ming Tombs which showcases the Ming dynasty dated back to 1300, the Temple of Heaven and the Tian’an Men Square.

The three gorges is one of the famous attractions on the Yangtze River cruise which is yet another wonderful cruise to experience. A long cruise on the river makes you see reality as you can see others parts of China from across. Places like Beijing, Xian, Shanghai and Suzhou become live as you partake in this cruise on the Yangtze River.

A very wonderful attraction to see in an escape tour in China is the Wonders of Tibet. In Tibet, the rooftops of the many temples are well-known to many visitors and locals around. Known as the Roof of the world, Tibet is a wonderful place to visit with the mysterious culture and beautiful landscapes. Tibet boasts of many natural lakes which can leave you breathless and awe-struck.

Shanghai, one of the fastest developing and largest metropolis in China is known for its industrial, financial and historical components. Shanghai tours showcases the French Concession, a popular European district, the Bund known as the symbol of Shanghai which is an area located on the banks of the Huangpu River.

Not forgetting the terracotta warriors and horses of Xian which is one of the Eighth Wonder of the World. The Xi’an terracotta is one of the most significant findings of modern archaeology.

Tours in China are countless and unending due to the ravelling mysteries and historical stories of the ancient civilization which the great country boasts of. So if you are planning a trip, a tour to China is worth the money, the distance and most importantly worth the experience.
