China

Have you always wanted to travel to an exotic locale, but couldn't justify the cost or long flights? Well, with the travel industry slumping, it may be time to finally visit that far-flung destination. Here are five places to consider.

New routes and a ton of new infrastructure following the Olympics make this a good time to finally visit China. Vacation packages are available in abundance, with good prices from Gate 1 Travel ($1,069 including air and six nights' hotel) and Gap Adventures ($849 including six nights' hotel).
