Future Villages
In line with its objective to attract China's upscale market, village projects at seaside or cultural destinations in China have been initiated and planned to open between 2010 and 2014. The Yabuli ski resort—the first Club Med village in China—opened in Heilongjiang province in December 2010. Club Med is scheduled to open its second village in China in August 2012 in the Yuzi Paradise sculpture park in Guilin (formerly a Relais & Chateaux affiliate). Additional villages are planned in Buzios (Brazil), reopening Cefalu (Sicily) and in the Sultanate of Oman.

Famous quotes containing the words future and/or villages:
“The circuited city of the future will not be the huge hunk of concentrated real estate created by the railway. It will take on a totally new meaning under conditions of very rapid movement. It will be an information megalopolis.”
—Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
“But I go with my friend to the shore of our little river, and with one stroke of the paddle, I leave the village politics and personalities, yes, and the world of villages and personalities behind, and pass into a delicate realm of sunset and moonlight, too bright almost for spotted man to enter without novitiate and probation.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
