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 present hour is always wealthiest when it is poorer than the future ones, as that is the pleasantest site which affords the pleasantest prospects.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Before the birth of the New Woman the country was not an intellectual desert, as she is apt to suppose. There were teachers of the highest grade, and libraries, and countless circles in our towns and villages of scholarly, leisurely folk, who loved books, and music, and Nature, and lived much apart with them. The mad craze for money, which clutches at our souls to-day as la grippe does at our bodies, was hardly known then.”
—Rebecca Harding Davis (1831–1910)
