Book Description
Excerpt from Northern China, the Valley of the Blue River, Korea The kind reception given by the reading public to our earlier volumes on China has encouraged us in presenting a second edition completely revised and brought up-to-date. Careful account has been taken of the remarkable economic development which has taken place in China during the last few years, as well as of the greatly increased facilities for visiting important places and remarkable buildings offered by the recent extensions of her railway system. We have passed but lightly over those parts of the country which are ill-supplied with means of communication, to give more space to descriptions of interesting points that have either been made accessible by railways or canbe reached by sea or river navigation. These itineraries are arranged in order of provinces and the latter grouped regionally. Korea, having become a Japanese possession, is now more frequented by tourists; it is crossed to reach Japan. M. Courant, professor of Chinese at the University of Lyons, who wrote the article on Korea, which on its appearance in our first edition attracted so much attention, has made a point of revising his work in order to give to travellers fuller historical and geographical information drawn directly from native sources, among others the Sam kuk sa keui, Ko rye sa and Tongkuk mun hen pi ko, three historical works, and Tong kuk ye ti seung ram, the great official geography. These Far-Eastern countries offer many curious studies to the geographer, the ethnologist and the naturalist; to archeologists and artists, a wealth of ancient monuments only recently explored, to tourists a great variety of country. The railway, every day extending further afield, is bringing within reach fresh beauties of nature, historic or venerated spots, new mineral wealth: linking the two banks of the Blue River, it will, to-morrow, by the "Trans-Chinese", carry the traveller from Manchuria and Peking to the opposite confines of the Empire to the teeming city of Canton and even to the vast emporium of Hong-kong.
