China
China dominates a vast portion of the Eurasian continent, encompassing the earth's highest mountains, biggest desert and third longest river. Home of the oldest civilization on the planet, today's China is full of amazing contrasts: the world's largest population, wild and rugged landscapes, remote villages where water buffalo still plow hand-planted fields, and thriving urban centers with jarring Western influences like Starbucks coffee shops. You owe it to yourself to discover this fascinating developing nation, from her imperial roots to her very lifeblood the mighty Yangtze River. And as the world's largest river cruise line, Viking River Cruises excels at giving you an authentic, up-close experience on land and by river.
