🇨🇳 China: one of the world's most beautiful unexplored countries

Most UK holidaymakers have never been to China, and many don't yet realise how easy it has become. Interest is growing quickly. British citizens can currently visit mainland China visa-free for up to 30 days (until 31 December 2026, according to GOV.UK; check before you travel). China's high-speed rail network also makes multi-city trips simple: pandas in Chengdu in the morning, hotpot in Chongqing by lunch.

✈️ Flights: direct flights on Chinese airlines from London can take some of the shortest routes to China, often with competitive fares. Compare on Skyscanner. 🚄 On the ground: book trains, hotels and things to do on Trip.com.

⭐ The Founder's Route: the real trip our founder took, from the beaches of Sanya to Zhangjiajie's Avatar mountains, the cliffside Wangxian Valley and Shanghai. Most of it by bullet train, with every train leg roughly two to three hours. See the route →
