CHINA

I think China is an interesting nation and would love to learn as much as I can about it...

China is a beautiful nation that is covered mostly with mountains and plateaus. You need to enter this country prepared for any type of weather because depending on where you are depends on the weather since this place covers such a large area of land. Over 1 billion people live in China and it is officially an atheist nation. There are some religions practiced in China such as Buddhism, Islam, and Christianity and it is defiantly a communist nation. It is not an extremely expensive place to live, but if you travel there you will be seen as rich so you will be charged more.

I read a story of a girl who on Sunday's her family goes to the park because of the strict rules put on religion. It kinda made me wonder how she feels about that. If she wants to believe in something or if she is ok with what her family does. She goes to school six days a week and Sunday is the family day.

Some other facts:

Currency- Yuan

Men in China smoke....period. It is good for business reasons and if you travel there as a male you will be offered a cigarette. Women do not smoke because its bad for them...? ok...do not get that but whatever.

Entering a house you should bring a gift...flowers or fresh fruit will work.

Some cities in China:
Beijing, Chengdu, Chongqing, Dalian, Guangzhou,Kunming, Nanjing, Shanghai,Shantou, Xi'an

Pray for China, pray for the world....love people.
