Ah, there are so many--where to begin.

There are a LOT of different places to go in China that are absolutely spectacular. Huang Shan (Yellow Mountain) in Anhuai Province is beautiful (many classic painting depict this area). Jiu Zhai Gou (9 Villages Gorge) out by Tibet is wonderful. Huang Long (Yellow Dragon) is not too far away from Jiu Zhai Gou, and is beautiful. There are Giant Panda reserves outside of Chengdu, the capital city in Sichuan. Hainan Island (about 45 minutes by air from Hong Kong) is called the Hawaii of the Orient (beware, though--you will likely get ripped off more than once there--bargain hard for everything, including taxi rides--BEFORE you get in the taxi!). Xian is an ancient capital city with the Terracotta Warriors. The Silk Road is fabulous.
