Watch for free: China's Secret Lands on New Zealand Geographic
I hope everyone stays safe and healthy in the COVID-19 pandemic.
I found myself going down memory lane today, wondering if the documentary series I worked on for NHNZ several years ago had been aired. Turns out it's already available to watch for free online!
We hear so much negative news about China and tend to forget how monumentally huge and diverse the nation is. Going from one province to the other is like crossing borders in Europe - different languages, traditions and landscapes. Our crew was given the rare opportunity to film fascinating stories from the extremeties of this country, normally hidden from view. Please check it out!
