The rapid urbanization in the megacities of China often overshadows its best kept natural beauty. Instead of just travelling to the major cities of China, make your way to the scenic countryside with EU Asia, where tour guides are more than willing to show you the secret beauties that lie within the country. Two hot-selling packages to consider are 8D7N Shanghai / Hongcun / Qiandao Lake / Stay One Night @ Huangshan and 8D7N Shanghai / Suzhou / Hangzhou / Wuzhen / Nanjing / Wuxi Gourmet Tour, both valid till 31 Dec 2015.
Aside from the vibrant city of Shanghai, these tours will bring you to some of China’s lesser known destinations such as Suzhou, Hangzhou, Huangshan and Wuzhen. You will be awed by the classic beauty of Beijing – Hangzhou Grand Canal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the longest canal in the world. Then, you’ll be spending a night to commune with nature at the “loveliest mountain in China”, Mt. Huangshan. Get ready to be catapulted back in time in the well-preserved towns and streets like the Hongcun Ancient Village, Moon River Old Town, Tunxi Old Street and Qinghefang Old Street. In these tours, you’ll be sure to get the best of both the city and countryside life.
5. Korea
