For thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years, the cultural traditions of the Chinese nation have been unbroken, arguably unmatched by any other ancient civilization in the world. China has always been a multi-ethnic country, and throughout its long history, all members of this family have jointly created a splendid national culture. How to protect our world heritage is a glorious yet challenging task for us as a heritage-rich nation, a responsibility to our ancestors and future generations.

As one volume of the "Comprehensive Guide to China's Scenic Spots and Landscapes," this book hopes to help the world understand China's long history, unique culture, and natural scenic beauty, and to contribute to the protection of our world heritage.
