For this unique publishing co-venture, the China Tourist Press has collected a lifetime of works from the very best Chinese photographers seen together in book form for the first time.

Since Marco Polo first returned from the Far East in 1295 with exotic treasures and wondrous stories, China has fascinated the West. Featuring 180 magnificent color photographs, including 36 pages of foldouts in which each image expands to nearly four feet wide, this unique, oversize volume celebrates the many splendors of China.

From the breathtaking Huangshan Mountains of Guilin and the Golden Summit of Mt. Emei to Asia's longest river, the 3,400 mile Yangtze, and Hangzhou's quiet, lotus filled West Lake, Spectacular China captures all of the fantastic and intriguing natural wonders.

The people's impression on the land is just as significant. View the Imperial treasures including the formidable, palatial halls of the Forbidden City. Marvel at the 1,500 mile engineering wonder, the Great Wall of China, orthe six foot Buddha in Yufo Temple carved from one solid piece of jade. Stroll the cosmopolitan streets of Hong Kong and gaze in wonder at the dazzling fireworks over the Chinese capital of Beijing on Chinese New Year -- Spectacular China explores the majesty, mystery, and rich diversity of China and its people.
