Visit a land unlike any other

“China is always somewhere that I would suggest people visit when they ask me about going somewhere different,” says Nathaniel Harvey, operations manager for Oneworld Travel Group, which has offices in Wakefield, Beverley, York and Yarm.

“I would 100% recommend it as a destination to anyone who wants to have an adventure this spring. We’ve picked the very biggest highlights for this Majestic China tour, but to be honest, you could go there every year for your whole lifetime and see something different every time.

“You can expect quality accommodation, rich cultural experiences and memories to last a lifetime. Plus we’ve worked with our Chinese suppliers to make sure that this deal is about £1,000 cheaper than other packages which are available for this time.”

New visa system means friction-free travel

“The visas used to be a big barrier to travel to China so this will make a huge difference to the experience of travelling there,” adds Nathaniel.

From 17 February, UK nationals are now able to travel to mainland China for up to 30 days without a visa.

The visa-free entry for tourism, business or visits to family and friends is set to apply for the whole of 2026.

The relaxing of the travel rules brings the policy for UK passport holders into line with 50 other countries, including France, Germany, Italy, Australia and Japan, following Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer's official visit to China in January.

Sights to behold – what you’ll see

The Great Wall of China is one of the largest building-construction projects ever undertaken and it is famously visible from space. Although lengthy sections are now in ruins or have disappeared, it is still one of the more remarkable structures on Earth - which is why it was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987.

The Terracotta Army is a collection of terracotta sculptures depicting the armies of Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China. The Terracotta Army was discovered in 1974 when farmer Yang Zhifa uncovered fragments of pottery when digging a well. In 1987 the site was given UNESCO World Heritage status and is a major tourist attraction in Xi’an.

The world’s highest and longest glass-bottomed bridge opened to visitors in central China a decade ago, connecting two mountain cliffs in Zhangjiajie, Hunan province. The 430m-long bridge, which is paved with 99 panes of three-layered transparent glass, offers incredible views of the area which was made famous as the backdrop for the film Avatar.
