The vastness of land and variety of topography is unbelievable; from shop-till-you-drop metropolises to the desert landscapes of Xinjiang, China is a land of cultural and geographic differences. It's best to follow a flexible itinerary here, such as following the Silk Road, sailing down the Yangzi River, or exploring the Dr Seuss landscape of Guangxi Province.
