China or the People's Republic of China as it is known, is located in Eastern Asia. It has an area of approx 9.6 million sq. km making it the third largest country in the world after Canada and Russia and it shares its borders with no less than 12 different countries. These include Afghanistan, Bhutan, Burma, India, Kazakhstan, Krygyzstan, Laos, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, Russia, South Korea, Tajikistan and Vietnam.
A census carried out midway through 2008 determined that, as of that date, there were in excess of 1.3 billion people in China making it the world’s most populated country. That said, its sheer size can leave you feeling quite isolated in certain parts, particularly in the West, since most of the Chinese live on the densely populated Eastern coast.
China is a truly multi-national country boasting some 56+ nationalities that loosely come under the banner of Chinese. Achang, Bai, Baoan, Bouyei, Bulang, Dahur, Dai, Deang, Dong, Dongxiang, Dulong, Ezhe, Gelo, Gaoshan, Han, Hani, Hui, Jing, Jingpo, Jinuo, Kazakh, Kirgiz, Korean, Lahu, Li, Lisu, Luoba, Manchu, Maonan, Miao, Monba, Mongolian, Mulao, Naxi, Nu, Oroqen, Owenke, Ozbek, Pumi, Qiang, Russian, Sala, Sibo, She, Shui, Tajik, Tartar, Tibetan, Tu, Tujia, Uygur, Va, Yao, Yi, Yugu, and Zhuang are just some of the many languages and dialects to be heard here.
This is perhaps one of the reasons that the Chinese people are generally very tolerant of foreigners, accepting even the strangest of behaviour, believing it to be the norm in other countries. The first rule in almost every situation in China is not to lose your temper. Patience and politeness are the watchwords here and they will always go further than getting angry or shouting.
It is especially useful to try to remember this when in Shanghai. Shanghai is a city of extremes, extreme cold in winter and extreme heat in summer. July and August see humidity increase to almost unbearable levels, add this to a population of nearly 20 million people and it can get rather sticky at times. During other parts of the year however, the situation is markedly different. Late September through to early December is lovely in Shanghai, with temperatures in the mid-20s and no humidity. May and June can also be very pleasant.
Beijing, the capital city of China is a dusty and highly polluted place although curiously, you will find very little litter on the streets. This is due to a citywide policy aimed at reducing litter, by paying residents to recycle it. As a result, you’ll find a large number of entrepreneurial types, risking life and limb on Beijing’s very congested streets in an effort to clean up.
A haggler’s paradise, Beijing and China in general sees flea markets everywhere and a good deal of to-ing and fro-ing is expected before a final price for anything, is settled upon. Once agreed however, further negotiation is frowned upon.
The Chinese economy has exploded onto the world scene over the last 20-30 years and this growth has seen the country rightly take its place, as a world super power. This is hardly surprising when you consider the resources at their disposal. However, there are still inequalities in the income of the Chinese people, and this disparity is evident countrywide.
