China is racing rapidly towards its future as one of the world's top nations, yet has not left behind its air of tradition in the form of palaces, quaint fishing villages and morning Tai Chi. See ancient tradition and culture rubbing shoulders with huge developing commercial cities in this vast, swiftly westernising country.
A gap year in China is an excellent choice if you are thinking about looking for paid jobs abroad, teaching English, volunteering or for something a bit different learning Martial Arts!
Our gap year programmes give you the opportunity to travel China and experience it's diversity.
