As the 21st century unfolds, it is clear that China will take a leading role in shaping the way our world develops. The world's most populous nation - and dynamic economy - has as its backdrop 5000 years of history and is home to a wide variety of rich cultural traditions and exotic cuisines. Furthermore, China is the world's fourth largest country in area, with wide geographic diversity and stunning natural beauty. The China Immersion program provides access to all of this. Our month in the Far East will include visits to the Great Wall of China, Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and exotic markets; study of Mandarin, Kung Fu, Chinese cuisine, Tai Chi, and calligraphy; visits to isolated villages and staggering Himalayan peaks on the Tibetan plateau; seminars with business leaders and government officials; biking though rice paddies and traditional farming villages, community service; and more. If you've already been to China, know a little about the country, or are simply intrigued by it, our China Immersion Program is ready to impress on every level.
