The best way to learn the Chinese language is in China, preferrably in Peking where the official Chinese language, Standard Mandarin or Putonghua, is spoken. Only here you can achieve the best and fastest results because you get into contact with Chinese people and language not only during your language course but virtually all day long. Besides that, you have the opportunity to visit famous places, meet new Chinese friends and buy Chinese stuff.
