China's Renaissance under the Song Dynasty is recalled. In Kaifeng, host Michael Wood hears the story of the boys who became emperors; tries a 1000-year-old recipe; works a giant astronomical clock; and dances with the locals by Hangzhou's West Lake. In the second half: the story of China's most famous dynasty. Wood visits the Great Wall and the Forbidden City; sails the South China Sea on a junk; visits a fabulous Chinese garden; and travels to Macao with the first Jesuit missionary to China.
