But vast areas in Chinaare almost deserted, and one can travel for dayswithout seeing signs of human life. Most of the people in China live in the eastern part of thecountry. In contrast to other parts of China, the east has a dense population,and almostevery piece of arable land is under cultivation. The largest compact community of people isin the region that stretches from the north Yangtze River to Beijing,the capital.
