China is a village in north-western Pakistan, located in Khyber District of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. It was part of the Federally Administered Tribal Areas before those areas merged with Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in 2018.

In the 1900s, China served as an important stronghold and raiding base for elements of the Zakha Khel tribe. This led the British to launch the Bazar Valley Campaign to pacify the region. During that campaign, China was largely destroyed by British forces in an effort to force the Zakha Khel to make peace.
