As the fourth largest country in the world, China has a vast area of diverse landscapes.
It is bordered by 14 other nations and is surrounded by the Pacific Ocean to the east; here, you’ll find towering mountain ranges, expansive plateaus, fertile plains, lush forests, and vast deserts.
Some of China’s record-breaking geographical landmarks include the Himalayas, the world’s highest mountain range; the Yangtze River, the longest river in Asia; and the Gobi Desert, one of the world’s most expansive deserts.
After three years of closed borders due to COVID, China’s domestic tourism industry has experienced a robust post-pandemic rebound.
The South China Morning Post reports that domestic tourists spent approximately 633 billion yuan (€80.55 billion) over the 2024 Lunar New Year holiday period.
China’s travel restrictions were lifted early last year, but international travel has yet to return to pre-pandemic levels, something the country hopes to change.
