"La vuelta al mundo de un novelista; vol. 2/3" by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez is a travel narrative written in the early 20th century. This work explores the author's observations as he journeys through various regions, including China and its cities, such as Mukden and Pekín. The narrative likely combines historical insights with personal anecdotes, offering readers a glimpse into the cultural and social dynamics of the time. The opening of the narrative begins with the author reflecting on his surroundings in Mukden, a city draped in snow and rich with historical significance from past battles between Russians and Japanese. As he describes the sights and sounds of the area, he observes the unique lifestyle of the locals, the bustling scenes at the train station, and the stark contrast of the numerous Chinese graves lying hidden under the snow. His journey then leads him to the mausoleums of the Manchu emperors, where he reflects on the political tensions of the region and finally contemplates the historical depth of 5,000 years of Chinese civilization as he begins his travels to Pekín, setting the stage for further exploration of China's complex culture and history.
