Beijing Psychology & Sociology School Trips & Tours

This ancient culture that’s steeped in tradition became a strict and closed country under Chairman Mao. Your psychology and sociology school group will experience, firsthand, how Chinese behaviour has been shaped. It will become apparent to your pupils that tradition is still quite close to the surface of the Chinese psyche as the country continues to change rapidly. We offer a range of packages in China that offer truly memorable experiences for pupils.

Temple of Heaven

Considered to be the most beautiful building in the city, the Temple of Heaven is believed to be the meeting point between heaven and earth and symbols of the two are integral to the temple’s layout. Its park is also a popular area in which to sit, drink tea and play and it is easy to see how Chinese people find peaceful seclusion in the grounds.

Expert's comment

“China is an ideal destination for everything that’s different! It has its own diagnostic manual on the classification of psychiatric disorders. Its child-rearing practices and the role of family, especially the elderly, are different from Western culture and you will be able to discuss Western psychology viewed from an ethnocentric base.”
