Description
Summary:	China is the most populous country on the planet, home to a complicated society of proud and sometimes secretive people. In this surprising series, Billie J D Porter travels across the country to find out what it's like to grow up there. From the Great Wall to China's megacities and its only tropical island, she discovers how money, marriage and national pride are the cornerstones of Chinese life. Whether visiting one of the world's largest mass-dating events, or watching China's youth pay tribute to the state by raising flags and marching, Billie discovers how China's history has shaped its young people's values, and finds a nation that's unique in ways she could never have expected.
