With eyes open wide in awe, you will experience the five thousand year old history of this land and its many nationalities. You will look into the millennium of history of Jews, who are known to have lived in China since at least the 8th century and may have existed there as early as several centuries before the Common Era. For thousands of years, traders, adventurers, and refugees traveled thousands of miles of the Silk Road between the Mediterranean and China or rode ships into Chinese ports. Jewish refugees from Europe during the Holocaust were welcomed within China, which today remains one of the only nations in the world that has never persecuted Jews for their faith.

You will get a chance to visit magnificent buildings designed by Sephardic Jewish entrepreneurs from Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, and to walk where Ashkenazi Jews fleeing persecution in Russia, Poland, and the Baltic States built a flourishing presence. It is nearly impossible to describe the magnificence and exhilaration of the visits to Beijing, Kaifeng, Harbin, and Shanghai.

This trip will become one of the highlights of your traveling experience, so hurry and register today!
