BEIJING, Jan. 13 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- The China Guide (http://www.TheChinaGuide.com ) is providing a close up view into the ever growing Chinese economy with its academic tours of local industry including a working steel mill. As part of an academic tour, students visit a local steel manufacturing facility in Beijing, viewing the production close up and feeling the heat as they walk through the plant.
The steel mill tour includes three parts: the factory visit, the factory museum and the park inside the factory. The museum has excellent historic photographs and the park has paintings dating back to the Cultural Revolution in its long corridor. Visitors gain insight into the company's evolution, see new technology and think about possibilities for the industry's future while touring the inside of the factory. A company expert will lead groups through the mill, providing details about the business and operations.
"With the steady growth and development of the Chinese economy, more university groups and professionals from abroad are coming to China to get a first hand look at the business," comments Frank Yang, Sales and Marketing Executive for The China Guide. "China is the best place for student tours. It offers students an opportunity to gain first hand business insight from real professionals as well as learn about the history, culture and sights of the country. Our steel mill tour takes half a day, which can easily be combined with city sights or other academic aspects."
The China Guide offers a selection of company visits as well as longer academic tours designed to immerse students into Chinese culture and business. Depending on the field of study, itineraries can be designed to enhance classroom study by providing tours of cultural sights, Chinese and foreign-operated businesses and organizing lectures given by Chinese professionals. Itineraries are set to match the travel dates of the group and can include one destination or many destinations in China over multiple weeks.
