In the early period of China’s known existence, civilization was scarce due to the vast deserts, mountains, and seas.  For century’s China was isolated from other parts of the world which gives an insight to the origins of Chinese culture and evidently is still seen today. If this is for you then a China Tour or China Flights is recommended for the best deals.

There is too much history in China to even attempt to write in a blog, so I will focus on points of history I believe to be some of the most interesting and unique. It begins in 2200 BC in the Xia Dynasty, followed by the Shang Dynasty, then West Han Dynasty and East Han Dynasty centuries went by.

  • Modern China during 1644-1911  was rules under the Qing Dynasty in which the capital city of Beijing was founded. During this time was the building of Summer Palace by Empress Dowager Cixi in 1888.
  • It was only until 1911 that communism in china began to grow after the Qing Dynasty.
  • In 1925 did the Forbidden City be allowed to the public as a historic Museum after thousands of years of being hidden from the world.
  • In 1974, a huge discovery of the Terra Cotta Warriors and horses were found in Xi’an, a major world treasure about Chinese culture.
  • In 1987,  the Great Wall and Forbidden City as World Cultural Heritages.
  • In October 1949 the People’s Republic of China became established into Chinese history.

Lets not forget the most recent achievement to be the Beijing Olympics in 2008, which proved the to the world that China is a great place to visit. As China becomes ever more modern in its own rapidly growing economy, it is the best time to go here and explore the opportunities it can bring.
