Four Journeys in China (English Edition): A Modern Marco Polo‘s 50-Year Memoir of a Changing Country

From Arriving in Beijing in 1965 and Living Through the Cultural Revolution to Witnessing Reform and Opening Up — A Colombian Diplomat‘s Personal Essays on China, 1965 to Today
This is not a history book written from the outside. Enrique Posada Cano arrived in Beijing in 1965 as a young Colombian, stayed for years, came back three more times, and lived through some of the most dramatic decades in modern Chinese history. He watched the Cultural Revolution from the inside, saw the country open up in the 1980s, and kept writing about what he saw—the people, the streets, the small details of daily life, and the big political shifts. The book collects dozens of his essays and reports from over fifty years. If you want to see China through the eyes of a sympathetic outsider who actually lived there for seventeen years—rather than read an academic history or a travel guide—this is it.
