China is a compact nation in East Asia whose vast background encompasses grassland, deserts, mountains, lakes, rivers and greater than 14,000km of coastline. Capital Beijing mixes contemporary architecture mutually historic sites one as the Forbidden City dwelling complex and Tiananmen Square. Shanghai is a skyscraper-studded global economic center. The iconic Great Wall of China runs east-west adjacent the country's north.  At this point in time, China should be the best place for any individual to pursue his or her educational career at any level, and here are a lot of reasons why this is true.

This number has been steadily spiking by a mean of 10% a year for the past decade, a smoothly quicker growth damage than any other popular study-abroad destination.


In the years past, Shanghai and Beijing were the only cities where it was possible to manage international students’ affairs. In 2006, approximately 50 percent of international students were in Beijing or Shanghai, however, this has fallen to 32 percent. Presently, there are 13 cities across China with greater than 10,000 international students, with seven cities having more than 20,000 students. Popular cities include Guangdong in the south of China and Liaoning, north of Beijing.
