The Amazing Race: China Rush (Chinese: 极速前进:冲刺!中国; pinyin: Jísù Qiánjìn: Chōngcì! Zhōngguó) is a Chinese reality television series based on the American reality TV series, The Amazing Race. The second season features 11 teams of two, each with a pre-existing relationship, in a race across 11 cities in China to win a trip to Hoh Xil Natural Reserve and a trip around the world worth 400,000CN¥ (US$62,000).

The Chinese TV network International Channel Shanghai aired the season in English, and DragonTV in Chinese.

In this first Detour of the race, teams had to choose between Hang Out or Dig In. In Hang out, teams went to Foliage Dai Ning Workshop, where teams must successfully hang four different blue calico patterns in traditional bamboo pole drying rack to receive the next clue. In Dig In, teams went to Syria Chang Sauces, identify a "Wuzhen Tong Bao" coin from the owner and search marked vats filled with bean sauce to find the right pair of the said coin. The unaired roadblock required one team member to sit on a floating tub in the lake to catch 5 fishes.
