China is known for its rich history and preservation of national treasures and heritage sites. By this very nature, lives of people across China are often in close proximity with history and traditional flavors. As ancient stories are told and passed on with new breakthroughs in science and technology, treasures of human civilization continue to develop and shine against China's constant push for innovation.
