To present the ancient and modern, the west and east of China, a media trip to three cities was organized by China Daily in late May.

A dozen reporters and photographers from mainstream media organizations in South Korea, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Pakistan, Nepal, Brunei and Myanmar joined the media junket titled "Asian Media Focusing on Beautiful China".

The group visited Xi'an in Shaanxi province, Taiyuan in Shanxi province and Zhangjiagang in Jiangsu province.
