China
Beijing
Beijing, the political and cultural capital of China, is where China’s most stunning and essential sights are to be found. Now a
modern 21st century city, Beijing remains steeped in culture and heritage. Towering skyscrapers and vast shopping malls are
juxtaposed with the grand buildings and broad boulevards of the last century, as well as fast-disappearing hutong lanes born
of the Ming and Qing dynasties. Beyond this modern vitality, Beijing is blessed with myriad attractions, providing visitors with
an unforgettable glimpse of the city’s history.
Neighbourhood Beyond the city, excursions to its interesting hinterland add some cultural
spice to the Beijing experience. A side trip to Tianjin takes visitors to one of the
largest Zen temples in China while Chengde is home to a renowned UNESCO
World Heritage Site, an 18th century imperial resort area where the remnants of
the most expansive regal gardens in China can be found. Further east, the
Ming dynasty garrison town of Shanhaiguan marks the spot where the Great
Wall meets the sea.
Local Attractions A remarkable history stretching back over 700,000 years has forged an
extraordinary cultural legacy. Among the many palaces, temples and tombs to
see are the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, Lama Temple, Summer Palace,
the Great Wall and Ming Tombs. More modern attractions include the CCTV
Building, the National Stadium ‘Bird’s Nest’, the National Aquatics Centre
‘Water Cube’ and the National Grand Theatre ‘Egg’. Beijing offers some of the
world’s most varied dining experiences including a dazzling array of local and
global cuisines to be enjoyed anywhere from food stalls to five-star gourmet
restaurants. There is an increasing variety of sophisticated bars, lounges and
nightclubs jumping to the sound of live bands and world-renowned DJs.
Museums And Galleries Beijing is one of Asia’s most important cultural hubs. The Palace Museum is a
must-see but other lesser known venues like the China National Geology
Museum and the National Film Museum of China are worthy of note. The city’s
renowned cinema, theatre, music and visual arts venues provide China’s artists
with the inspiration to unleash their creativity and attract visitors to
experience the enduring vitality of Chinese traditional and contemporary arts.
The allure of Beijing opera, acrobatics and Kung Fu never wanes while
Dashanzi, sprawling over several city blocks, showcases Beijing’s cutting-edge
art scene housing the thriving ‘Bohemian Bourgeois’ community of lofts,
galleries, bookshops, studios, cafes and bars.
11
Walks Discovering Beijing on foot can be a rewarding experience. The city is striped
with wide tree-lined boulevards and highways with myriad small alleyways
feeding off them. The flat terrain makes walking easy although the sprawling
distances and scattered sightseeing may prove to be challenging. With
virtually every major thoroughfare in Beijing having its own bicycle lane,
cycling tours make for an excellent alternative in exploring the city’s finest
monuments as well as the interesting spots off the beaten track.
Shopping For those looking for curios and souvenirs or quality products from world
famous brands, Beijing is a shopper’s dream come true. The most popular
shopping spots are the Yansha Shopping Mall, Tiananmen Square and
Wangfujing Street, Guomao Shopping Mall, Qianmen Street and Xidan Street.
Technology buffs can plug into the malls at Zhong Guan Cun while Luilichang
is the area to head to for antiques, paintings and old books. And for those who
pride themselves on their haggling skills, shopping at Beijing’s street markets
is an experience not to be missed. Silk Street, Panjiayuan, Hongqiao Market
and Sanlitun Yashow Clothing Market are the most popular. For edgier
boutique shopping, the trendy Nanluoguxiang Hutong is the place to go.

17Guangzhou
As a key transportation hub and trading port in China with a history of over 2,200 years, Guangzhou is the capital of
Guangdong Province and one of the five National Central Cities. The city is renowned as a “Gourmet Paradise”, offering
a marvellous variety of international delights and, in particular, authentic Cantonese dishes that are famous for specific
cooking techniques, natural flavours and delicate textures. One is considered not to have visited Guangzhou if one has not
tried the typical morning tea, or locally known as “Yum Cha”. So, ready your chopsticks!
Neighbourhood Situated adjacent to both Special Administrative Regions of Macao and the
international transport hub Hong Kong, Guangzhou allows easy access to
nearby attractions as well as many major cities. You may hop on a bullet train
and get to China’s first Special Economic Zone Shenzhen in 40 minutes, or on a
coach and get a relaxing soak in natural Conghua hot springs within an hour,
savour a bite of crispy squab in Zhongshan, or enjoy panoramic ocean views in
Zhuhai by the Guangzhou-Zhuhai Intercity Railway.
Local Attractions Guangzhou is also named the “Goat City”. Legend has it that five celestials
brought five goats carrying ears of rice to the city, to make sure the place
would always be free of famine. The locals later paid tribute to the goats by
making them the symbol of the city, hence the name. The Statue of the Five
Goats is located in Yuexiu Park, together with the 600-year-old Zhenhai Tower.
With a total height of 600 metres, the Canton Tower is the tallest TV tower in
China and guests are invited to take a ride in see-through capsules that perch
on top of the tower at 450 metres high. Not a fan of heights? Pay a visit to the
Chimelong Safari Park, home to 20,000 animals including rare and
endangered ones such as pandas, koalas, white tigers, meerkats and Thai
elephants. When night falls, the city’s vivacious side comes to live in flashing
lights of neon. Take a two-hour cruise trip along the Pearl River adorned by
historical sites and unique architectures featuring the Haizhu Bridge,
White Swan Lake, Ersha Island, Shamian Island and many more.
19Museums And Galleries The Guangdong Museum showcases an array of unseen treasures within,
consisting of four large exhibition halls with a collection of over 160,000
exhibits. The most notable of these is the paleontology exhibit, host to an army
of prehistoric dinosaur bones, from the wacky-looking Stegosaurus to
everyone’s favourite, Tyrannosaurus Rex. Besides, it is worth the trip just to see
the building’s famed ‘jewellery box’ design. The Zhujiang-InBev International
Beer Museum, the biggest beer-themed museum in south China, demonstrates
the beer-making procedure and history of beer as you savour a mug of freshly
brewed ale. Redtory creates a sanctuary where modern art blends with post-
industrial transformation, offering wide boulevards lined with bronze statues
and sculpture pieces that grant access to free exhibition halls. Western Han
Nanyue King Museum is well known for its well-preserved tomb and funerary
antiquity from the Han Dynasty. The tomb has yielded more than 1,000 burial
artefacts, a chariot, gold and silver vessels, musical instruments and human
sacrifices. The owner of the tomb is Zhao Mo, the second king of Nanyue
(137 BC – 122 BC).
Walks The hotel is just a stone’s throw away from the Pearl River. Why not start by
taking a stroll along it? With a soft breeze caressing, you will soon reach Party
Pier, the place to go for a good night out. Too early to drink? Keep walking, cross
the Liede Bridge and arrive at the Zhujiang New Town on the other side of the
River. This area houses a host of sites such as Canton Tower, Twin Towers,
Guangzhou Opera House, Guangdong Museum, Guangzhou Library, the
Second Children’s Palace and Haixinsha Island — the venue for the 16th Asian
Games opening and closing ceremony.
Shopping Guangzhou offers abundant shopping options from high-end shopping
malls to bargain basements in back alleys. For handicrafts, the 800-metre
Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street is highly recommended. For high-quality toys,
garments, snacks, freshly caught seafood or even dried Chinese herbs at low
prices, there are a number of wholesale markets as if all factories in China have
set up store fronts. For the latest fashions, the mall in TaiKoo Hui is worth
mentioning. With a total floor area of 138,000 sq m, it is home to over 180
acclaimed brands, including some of the world’s biggest names such as Louis
Vuitton, Chanel, Prada and Hermès.

25Shanghai
Shanghai, once known as the ‘Paris of the East’, is a bustling metropolis located at the mouth of the Yangtze River. In the early
20th century, Shanghai was already the most glamorous and provocative city in all of Asia. Today the cosmopolitan hub of
China, Shanghai has reinvented itself as one of the foremost financial and trade centres of Asia. The city continues to grow
apace, with new underground stations, highways crisscrossing the municipality, the most modern stock exchange in the
world and a whole new economic zone in the Pudong district. Shanghai has also become the very symbol of China’s rise to
economic powerhouse status, as well as a great destination for shoppers and gourmets, with an abundance of restaurants
serving authentic Shanghainese cuisine as well as flavours from other parts of China.
Neighbourhood Shanghai’s location on the east coast of China allows easy access to various
cities that hold special importance in the country’s history and culture. A mere
hour’s ride away by express train, Suzhou is renowned for its 2,500-year-old
city walls, elaborate Venice-like canal system, classical Chinese gardens,
beautiful stone bridges and sumptuous silk creations. A little further down,
150km southwest of Shanghai, Hangzhou is one of China’s most cherished
cities and home of the famous export, Longjing tea. A serene retreat for
emperors in the past, the city’s West Lake has inspired generations of writers,
painters and poets. Equally accessible albeit in the northeast, Nanjing is one of
the ‘four great ancient capitals’ of China, having served as the capital for six
dynasties as well as, in modern times, the Republic of China. Nanjing has also
been a centre of education, transportation and tourism throughout Chinese
history and is today the second largest commercial hub in the East China
region, after Shanghai.
Local Attractions A bustling international metropolis with a rich ancient Chinese heritage,
Shanghai offers much to see and experience. Oriental TV Tower is the
ubiquitous symbol of the city. Standing beside the Huangpu River and The
Bund, it is at a height of 468 metres. Yuyuan Garden is the largest of
Shanghai’s ancient gardens, with landscaping styles that date back to the
Ming and Qing dynasties. Jade Buddha Temple is one of the most famous
Buddhist temples in Shanghai. The white jade Buddha statues were brought
here from Myanmar in the nineteenth century. Designed by French architect
Jean-Marie Charpentier, Shanghai Grand Theatre, featuring a futuristic glass

27Museums And Galleries The Shanghai Art Museum is housed in the magnificent 1933 Shanghai Racing
Club building, whose iconic clock tower overlooks Nanjing Road, China’s

bronze cooking vessel, showcases an equally magnificent collection of the arts
of China in its 11 permanent galleries; especially noteworthy are the galleries
featuring ancient Chinese bronze and ceramics. The Urban Planning Museum
helps make sense of the building frenzy that continues to transform Shanghai.
Its exhibitions cover the city’s development from fishing village to Concession,
to modern metropolis. M50, at 50 Moganshan Road, is a collection of art
galleries and artists’ studios squeezed into converted Concession-era
warehouses — an excellent spot for a glimpse of contemporary Chinese art.

missed, is The Bund. Situated on the east bank of the Huangpu River, this

swankiest areas. At night bright lights add to the convivial atmosphere as
people stroll along the wide riverside promenade. Visitors can expect to be
further rewarded at outlying ‘water towns’ such as Zhujiajiao and Qibao,
where ancient houses huddle by rivers running through the towns. Here
picturesque sights, flagstone-paved roads and the locals’ traditional lifestyle
are sure to slow your pace as you savour a scene straight out of a storybook.
Shopping One of Shanghai’s prime attractions, Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street is lined
with interesting restaurants and shops, including grand historic department
stores such as the Hualian (formerly Wing On). The area also features a
tramway that runs the length of the pedestrian mall. Dong Tai Lu Antique
Market, Shanghai’s largest antiques and curios market, hasover 100 stalls with
a mix of serious antiques and kitsch, ranging from fresh-from-the-factory
Cultural Revolution figurine reproductions to vintage lighting fixtures and
Art Deco furniture. Xintiandi, a two-block area of refurbished shikumen
houses (Shanghai’s domestic architecture) alongside a Shikumen Museum
that depicts life in these historic lane houses, also features many gourmet
restaurants and haute couture boutiques, making a shopping trip here
nothing less than a cultural experience.

Ningbo is the historical and cultural centre of Yangtze Delta of China, and is also a centre for finance, commerce and
technology. With a history of over 7,000 years and being one of the starting points of the ancient “Silk Road on the sea”, Ningbo
is now one of the fastest developing cities in China. Iconic attractions of the city include Tianyi Library, Hemudu relics, Xuedou
Mountain, Dongqian Lake and Xiangshan Fishing Port.
Neighbourhood Ningbo has long been overshadowed by its neighbours across Hangzhou
Bay – Shanghai to the north and Hangzhou to the east. Today, it is often seen
as a point departing for the holy Buddhist island of Mount Putuo. Ningbo is
connected to Shanghai by a few hours’ ride over the world’s longest trans-
oceanic bridge, the Hangzhou Bay Bridge, while its convenient location
makes it great to explore the surrounding regions, including Hangzhou,
Shaoxing and the Zhoushan Islands.
Local Attractions Ningbo’s history takes shape in major attractions like the modern Ningbo
Museum, where exhibits run from the region’s Neolithic artefacts to the
20th century, and Ningbo Old Bund, where European colonial powers were
set up in the wake of the First Opium War. On the other hand, traditional
Chinese culture is showcased in such historic sites as Tianfeng Pagoda,
Ningbo Drum Tower and Ayuwang Temple. Ningbo is the birthplace of the
garment industry in modern China. Since 1997, Ningbo International
Fashion Festival has become one of the most anticipated events in the city.
Ningbo is enclosed by numerous outlying attractions easily reached: the
most renowned is Dongqian Lake while dozens of tea farms, temples and
villages are scattered throughout a mountainous scenic landscape.
51Museums And Galleries The history of the Neolithic Hemudu culture, which dates back to 7,000 years
ago, is documented in the modernly-designed Ningbo Museum. Ningbo’s
cultural history can also be discovered in the gardens and exhibits of Tianyi
Pavilion Library whereas the latest culture is displayed in the Ningbo Museum
of Art. There are more facets of Ningbo life: the Qing’an Guild Museum
detailing Zhejiang’s maritime history, the Ningbo Tea Culture Museum sitting
on an islet in Moon Lake and the Banking Guild Hall telling the story of how
the city influenced the development of banking in Shanghai and the country.
