Asia · Destination guide
The middle kingdom, wide open.
China operates at a scale that recalibrates you: the Great Wall riding mountain ridges to the horizon, eight thousand terracotta soldiers standing in formation underground, and Shanghai’s skyline making science fiction look conservative. High-speed rail stitches it together at 350km/h.
The Beijing–Xi’an–Shanghai spine remains the essential first journey, with Guilin’s karst rivers the scenic encore. Guides matter enormously here — ours turn logistics into storytelling — and the food, region by region, is a journey of its own.
