As social media buzzes with the rise of "China tours," international travelers are finding that the Chinese mainland is more accessible than ever, thanks to expanded visa exemptions. This exciting trend is inspiring young global citizens to explore destinations where ancient heritage meets modern innovation.
CGTN reporter Wang Tao recently joined first-time Malaysian visitor Natascha Ong Pleyer on her adventure through Beijing and Shanghai. From the timeless history of Beijing's landmarks to Shanghai's futuristic skyline, Natascha immersed herself in a rich tapestry of culture that goes beyond sightseeing.
Her journey was not just a trip; it was an immersive cultural exchange that bridged gaps between Malaysian youth and residents of the Chinese mainland. This experience sparked mutual understanding and laid a foundation for lasting friendship between the two regions.
In a world where travel is a gateway to global connections, Natascha's adventure reminds us that every journey is an opportunity to forge new bonds, appreciate diverse cultures, and contribute to a shared global narrative of unity and progress.
