China Adventure & Tours of North China Tourist Attractions

The North

Northern China combines historic cities, grassland cultures, Buddhist art, and Silk Road heritage. Explore temples, merchant estates, and the banking buildings that recall the region’s commercial past. Beyond the cities, grassland visits offer a different perspective on the region’s landscapes and communities.

Travel north from Beijing and cross the Great Wall of China, and the high plains of Mongolia soon spread across the distance, as do the legends. Just as the word ‘Mongolia’ is likely to stir visions of the exotic-empty grasslands, wandering nomads, wild horses, and of course, the most famed Mongol of them all, Genghis Khan. Inner Mongolia is an elongated slice of land that stretches from the Gobi Dessert across mighty steppes and up to the border with Russia. Standing on the grassy plains, you may be the highest point for miles around, a sensation not unlike being adrift in the ocean.  

When it comes to history, the province of Shanxi bursts at the seams, but time-warped Pingyao offers something extra-a rare opportunity to witness old China in action. It is quite possibly the best-preserved ancient walled city in the whole of the country. Go beyond the main commercial street, and you’ll find locals hanging laundry in courtyards, careering down alleyways on bicycles, or merely sunning themselves in doorways. The town also through up some great day trips, with the Shuanglin Temple and Wang Family Courtyard both highly recommended.
