You're chances, as foreign tourist, of being tossed into a "death camp" as you call it in China, are infintesimal. China is stark raving mad (in a happy, jolly way) over foreign tourism and investment.
Meanwhile Mother Russia continues to suffer terrorist attacks that, in their accumulated kills and property losses, make 9/11 look like a day at the damn beach, all while the Russian Mafia bleeds the people dry.
China is on a much better path than Russia.
Sorry for the threadjack.
The architecture is very nice, most of it built with foreign investment.
