    China Unchanged

    The glories of dynasties past in little-known historical sanctuaries

    This is a most unusual journey via back roads and trains through rice-terraced countryside to surprisingly well-preserved ancient sites and traditional villages.  Explore hanging temples, ancient grottoes, and old walled cities. Visit the villages of the ethnic minority Geija, Dong, and Miao cultures. Highlights of this unusual and ambitious itinerary include Yungang Grottoes, the Five-Terrace Mountain at Wutaishan, and the remarkably-preserved UNESCO World Heritage City of Pingyao. This superlative itinerary thoughtfully integrates cross-cultural interaction, broad historical perpective, art treasures, and stunning scenery.
