Beyond Beijing unravels many of the mysteries of travelling around modern day China. Engaging, fast-paced and highly visual, the series is designed to appeal to both the experienced traveller as well as the armchair explorer, taking them 'beyond Beijing' to six other equally fascinating Chinese cities.

The series captures images of China at an historic crossroads… as centuries of tradition give way to the 21st Century. As life becomes increasingly hectic, and economic competition ever more intense, is China in danger of losing its soul? Losing the very things that make it 'Chinese'?
