How did it all start? Our story began with a road cycling tour around Qinghai Lake on the Tibetan Plateau. One morning during this 400-mile high altitude biking tour, Bruce Chen, the company founder and a Sichuan native found himself awoke to a peaceful blue lake alight with the burning sunrise.

The breathtaking view brought Bruce a deep sense of fulfillment—yet Bruce and his friends had little support and were exhausted from this journey. Back from this fantastic tour, Bruce decided that sharing what he was inspired in that tour is worth his lifetime dedication. So the business started. Whichever types of journeys required, all of Bruce’s efforts goes to offer his clients a mind-refreshing and soul-touching experience of authentic China.

The SunriseChina Expeditions team will be waiting for you to start the journey together.
