FAR EAST ASIACHINA-A Land Of Wonder And DiscoveryChina was first placed on my travel wish list in 1969 when I visited Hong Kong's New Territories during China's Cultural Revolution.Tourists were not allowed passage across the border and the only view offered was through a barbed highway barrier and from the "Little Red Book" of Mao Tse-Tung quotations sold by roadside hawkers. After these many years I finally made my journey into China and traveled with Laurus Travel, a Canadian tour operator that specializes in China and small group adventures. The focus of the trip was Tibet and the Silk Road. Every day of the journey was filled with wonder and making connections with the people and places visited. I'm anxious to return and experience more of China's diverse culture,landscapes and heritage. Tourism Highlights of Hong Kong, the City of LifeThey call Hong Kong the 'City of Life' because it has always been so vibrant and full of energy. It's a city that's both exotic and cosmopolitan making it a perfect destination for first time travelers to Asia. Being a former British colony, there's enough English signs and people able to speak the language there to make it a user friendly place. At the same time, it's foreign enough that tourists will definitely feel that they are not on a typical beach vacation.
