Do ships traveling from the UK to China go through the Panama Canal or around Africa?
I believe that they go through the Mediterranean Sea, considering the Panama Canal is in South America. They would go through Achilles Pass, which is the spot where Spain and Africa meet, go through the Mediterranean, end up in either Syria or Turkey, and then would be on land and could travel through Eastern Europe to Asia. If that was not the case and they were to take a water course only, then yes, they would go around Africa.
