With Stef Hoffer<\/em> :<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a brief overview of some of the places visited in this video.<\/p>\n

After a short introduction, we begin this journey near the spectacular rice terraces of Yuanyang, before moving on to the captivating Buddhist temples of Dali. Via the peculiar Shilin Stone Forest and the \u2018Rainbow Mountains\u2019 of Zhangye, we arrive in Guangzhou (Canton), one of China\u2019s largest cities. After the Yellow Mountains national park, and the intriguing \u2018tulou\u2019 buildings, we visit the Great Wall and the Leshan Giant Buddha, the largest such statue in the world.<\/p>\n

After flying through the ice and snow city of Harbin, where people enjoy a unique Winter event, we take a brief look at the imposing Yellow River, Hukou waterfall, Zhengzhou and Changsha cities, before stopping at the breathtaking Jiuzhaigou national park, filled with crystal clear blue lakes. The next place is the countryside in between rural Yangshuo and urban Guilin, easily one of the most popular tourist destinations in China, where the Li river meanders through bizarre karst scenery. <\/p>\n

For more diversity, we travel to Dunhuang to visit the arid Gobi Desert. We also have a look at a solar panel field and windmill park, before we fly over some heavy industry, including a steel factory, coal mine, oil refinery, concrete dam, shipyard, an oil rig, and a massive bridge. Hong Kong is our next destinations, before moving on to several places along the Yangtze river (or its distributaries), including Tiger Leaping Gorge, Chongqing, and Wuhan. <\/p>\n

On Hainan island we see the \u2018tropical\u2019 side of China, while in Xiahe and Tibet we visit the country\u2019s highlands. From the frozen cities of Jilin and Xining we arrive in Qingdao, with its German colonial architecture and coastal vibe. In Macau we fly over the famous casinos, but also visit the Portuguese quarters, and after the rice fields of Longji (Dragon\u2019s Backbone), we increase our altitude in the Yulong national park. <\/p>\n

After Hangzhou and Shenyang, we briefly look at one of China\u2019s many \u2018ghost towns\u2019 and construction sites, before flying on to the surreal pillars of Zhangjiajie, and the (perhaps) equally stunning skyline of Shanghai. After showing the modern part of the city and the port (harbor), we also explore some of the disappearing neighborhoods, destroyed factories, and the strange looking \u2018bicycle graveyard\u2019. <\/p>\n

From the freezing \u2018Xuexiang\u2019 village and walled city of Pingyao we continue our journey in Xian, Shenzhen, Suzhou, and Changzhou. Finally, we take a look at the mesmerizing Yuanmou \u2018Earth Forest\u2019, Kunming city, and Lijiang, one of China\u2019s most famous historic towns. <\/p>\n
