Why choose a Luxury Holiday to China

China is a captivating blend of tradition and modernity, each region offering a unique window into its rich tapestry. In Shanghai, modern skyscrapers rise alongside tranquil temples and historic neighbourhoods, inviting visitors to wander and discover hidden corners amidst bustling streets. Beijing, China's capital, entices with the sprawling majesty of the Forbidden City and the historical resonance of Tiananmen Square, a symbol of pivotal moments in the nation’s history.

For history enthusiasts, Shanxi and Henan, regarded as the cradle of Chinese civilisation offer an array of majestic temples and ancient cave sites, brimming with cultural intrigue. Or journey to Xi'an to marvel at the legendary Terracotta Army, crafted in 210 BC to guard China's first emperor in the afterlife.

Mystical Tibet beckons with its storied past and spiritual heart, centred around the awe-inspiring Potala Palace, once the Dalai Lama's residence and still a sacred pilgrimage destination. In Sichuan, delight your senses with the region’s famous spicy hot pot cuisine and visit Chengdu, home to China’s beloved giant pandas, whose charming antics never fail to enchant visitors.

Picturesque Yunnan, with highlights like the serene mountain town of Shangri-La and Dali’s charming old town of quaint wooden alleyways, offers the perfect ending to a diverse Chinese adventure. Guizhou, a lesser-known gem, captivates with its spectacular natural scenery and vibrant ethnic cultures. Here, visitors can explore dramatic landscapes featuring towering mountains, cascading waterfalls, and picturesque rice terraces, as well as immerse themselves in the rich traditions of the region’s many minority communities.

Guilin and Yangshuo, famed for their breathtaking limestone karst landscapes, serene rivers, and lush countryside, offer visitors the chance to experience China's tranquil natural beauty. Cruise down the Li River, cycle through rice paddies, or hike the dramatic hills for unforgettable panoramic views.
