Traveler's Companion China 98-99

China, isolated from the rest of the world for more than three decades by a painful but phenomenal social revolution, has emerged as today's new frontier of international tourism, the mecca of more than a million jet-set and backpack pilgrims a year. Travel in China is challenging, but the reward for the tourist who understands and accepts this challenge is one of the most exciting and memorable experiences of a lifetime. And the Traveler's China Companion offers the opportunity to touch the soul of China and its teeming millions - not only its grand cultural treasures and relics but also the simplicity, generosity and hospitality of the ordinary Chinese people. Within this volume you'll find stunning photographs, clear and easy-to-follow maps, and detailed information on where to eat, shop, sleep and play. You'll also find sections on handy tourist information such as Visa requirements, exchange rates and tips on getting around in this amazing country.
