Description
This Globe Trekker episode follows several explorers through China, a country with over 1.3 billion citizens on a land mass barely larger than the U.S. They visit Emperor Qin's mausoleum in Xianyang and study China's history in Beijing. For centuries under imperial rule China was civilization's hot-spot of arts, sciences, and trade, providing the world with silk, porcelain, and tea, but it was all ended by the British Opium Wars and Mao Zedong's communist revolution. Since Chairman Mao's fall, China's rich cultural diversity and capacity for major trade are resurfacing. The team goes shopping in Shanghai, bets on the races in Hong Kong, visits Buddhist and Daoist temples, tries tai chi and acupuncture, and tastes scorpion on a stick. They glimpse peasant life at a rural festival and in Tolou at mud homes before being amazed by architectural wonders like the Great Wall of China and the ongoing Three Gorges Dam project.
