About Exploring China

Exploring China reveals China from the surprising inside-out perspective of a foreigner who lives in China, but who may not know it as well as she thinks. Her journey across the country makes her see it through new eyes, and question what she thinks she knows about China.

 

Tired of the preconceived portrayal of China as all rice paddies and panda bears, host Caitlin Rhodes scraps the guidebook, avoids the tourist traps, and gets right in there to talk with the locals to discover what they do, no matter where it takes her or what happens once she gets there.


Join Caitlin as she uncovers and rediscovers the real China.
