Extractions: L ocated in the eastern part of Aisa [ sic ] and to the west of the Pacific, China is a great country with an inviting charm and an air of Oriental mystery endowed by its splendid culture of unique depth. Covering an area of 9,600,000 square kilometers, China boasts of fantasitic [ sic ] natural scenes, numerous historic relics and colorful cultures, with 1.2 billion diligent, wise and hospitable people living in this land. Introduction T he above passage is a quotation S elling a nation first requires the manufacture of a national identity, a consumer construct that is integral to the project of nation-building. In the course of this short "webnography," I will examine Chinese cultural identity as it is formed and re-formed in www.cnta.com s various pages, and look at some of the ways in which nationalism and global capitalism meet in the arena of foreign tourism. Exploration of these two issues can enlarge our understanding of official nationalism, and of the Internet as a burgeoning medium for such a message. Chinese National Tourist Association Web site.
