Cultural Tidbits
Our job allows us to take many foreign friends on tours through China. During their tours, they ask many similar questions. We have dedicated this part of our website to answer these questions. Many people are interested in Chinese culture, art, or history, but find it too big, and too confusing. We hope that these pages will help you understand our culture and heritage. We are very proud of our culture, and want to help share it with the world.
