[quote=EXLIFE,226935]Though I do not have so many chances to travel around China and see all these places of interest distributed all over this great land, I am intensely drawn to anything trivial, such as an old photo, to feel the glorious 5,000-year civilization. Sometimes, I am a little upset when I find out that some historical civilization is disappearing. I am wondering How to make a balance between modernization and the protection of ancestral civilization without adding anything man-made to it. Sometimes, I heard many foreign visitors say that it is hard to trace China’s cultural features when all the most famous places of interest are introduced as scenic spots and when more and more Chinese young men pursue a western style way of life. I am always wondering how foreign friends feel after they visit these places, amazed or disappointed or nothing interesting. Maybe, I am a little pessimistic. Maybe, China is creating a new glorious chapter of civilization. Anyway, can anyone share with us his or her trip in China, and tell us how you feel when you first see something thousands of years old and then have to walk among the skyscrapers and have your dinner in elaborately decorated restaurant. anything similar in your country?
