China Tapestry 3
Jewish Tours to China
Beijing - Xi'an - Lijiang - Dali - Shanghai

China is the key to the Orient. This complex and ancient civilization is a world onto itself, with Jewish presence in places like Shanghai.
This program goes beyond Essential China by including the Yunnan province. Known as China's most colorful province, the Yunnan has an impressive blend of mountainous landscape, representation of many of China's minority people, and a deep appreciation of authentic colorful clothing. The Yunnan province still offers plenty of the traditional lifestyle that for centuries made China mysterious and attractive, and is unfortunately in the process of vanishing.
