Introduction to China

China travel is particularly interesting because of the variety of interesting places and cultural hot spots that can be found. Another very important factor is that a holiday to China is very easy on your budget. The accommodation facilities are cheap, yet comfortable and tasteful, and there are several places to visit which tourists can easily avail of either through a holiday tour guide, or simply by getting a map and a backpack and setting off in search of adventure.

Chinas Great wall!!

One of the must-see places in China is the Great Wall. This remarkable manmade structure can even be seen from the moon and has been listed as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The Great Wall is said to be over 6000 kilometres long and was built to defend China from the Huns. It is certainly worth going to China just to see this one part of history, if not for anything else. Even if you take a flight to Beijing, the Great Wall is at good proximity to the city so you could easily pay a visit there.

China hacking

Despite denials of culpability, China has been repeatedly fingered as one of the worst culprits when it comes to the smile-and-hack routine.

Recently German Chancellor, Angela Merkel, was toasted in Beijing by a smiling Chinese Premier, Wen Jiabao, as they praised relations between the two countries. While this show of affection was going on, in the electronic corridors of the internet it was a very different story. Chinese cyber bandits have had considerable success in placing spy software on computers located in the German Chancellery and foreign ministries.

Currency in China

China's currency is purposely undervalued to undermine competitors and take advantage of increased trade with foreign nations. When a country's currency is worth less than their trading partners it encourages more importation by the country with the stronger currency. The United States dollar can buy more Chinese products, than it can buy products from other countries because a US dollar is worth more than the Yuan-therefore it can buy more.

CONCLUSION

If China's main trade partners finally start applying tariffs and other concrete pressures to force them to give up their monetary advantage nations may start experiencing parity in trade.

China may have its fair share of customer service nightmares, and fortunately, the service provided by cab drivers here are improving, though with a lot of room for more improvement. However, if you are looking for service staff that really go for the extra mile and beyond for customers.
