The Richest Treasure of China

It is interesting to note the sweeping changes within China over the past generation.  Many people from the West still have an outdated view of China, even though it is obvious that the Middle Kingdom is a very modern place.  Today, the government of China commands great respect (and even fear) as the nation flexes is economic muscles.  However, the best thing about China though is still its people, its ancient culture, and its unique history. 

The modern Chinese woman has come a longs ways.  She has established herself as a new class of customer and business person throughout the world.  Her role in the family has also evolved too.  Chinese women today are busy at making money through business ventures the same as men.  I find the advancement of Chinese women to be one of the most incredible and delightful aspects of the East Asian experience.  It was not so long ago that the place of women in China was very different than it is now.

One can appreciate China in the most effective by visiting in person.  For this reason a trip to China is always a good idea.  May you find good luck in the Year of the Dragon!
