Shaoxing, Hometown of Celebrities

Image
Click to Listen About 70 kilometers from Hangzhou, Shaoxing is sheltered by Kuaiji Mountain and nestled among Zhejiang province's abundant Yangtze-fed waterways. The architectural style and atmosphere is typical JiangNan, meaning the area south of the Yangtze river. White walls punctuated with black tiles line narrow cobbled streets, so that when harried city dwellers dream of an idyllic paradise and retirement home, they often dream of Shaoxing. Yet Shaoxing is more than just a quiet place, it's also served as the home to many of China's most renowned scholars, writers and poets. No city in China can claim to be the hometown of as many nationally known personalities as Shaoxing. This 4000-year-old city was established by the Yue Kingdom and later became the capital of this state, with legends remaining which stretch all the way back to this period. Six kilometers southeast of Shaoxing, tucked beneath the foot of Kuaiji Mountain, we can find the Great Yu Mausoleum. Befo...

Shennongjia Scenic Area

Image
  The Shennongjia district in remote northwestern Hubei has the wildest scenery in the province. With heavily forested mountains of fir, pine and hemlock -including something rare in China, old-growth stands -the area is known as a treasure trove of more than 1300 species of medicinal plants. Indeed, the name for the area roughly translates as 'Shennong's Ladder' to commemorate a legendary emperor, Shennong, believed to be the founder of herbal medicine and agriculture. According to the legend, he heard about some special plants growing up high on a precipice, so he cut down a great tree and used it to climb to the site and reach the plants, which he added to his medical collection.     As part of a more modern legend, Shennongjia is also famous for the sightings of wild, ape-like creatures - a Chinese equivalent of the Himalayan Yeti or the North American Bigfoot. The stories are interesting, but the creatures seem to be able to distinguish between peasants and scientists...

A wild weekend in Inner Mongolia(2)

Image
Day 2: Enjoy a trip in Resonant Sand Gorge The Gorge is a part of the vast Gobi desert that starts just south of Baotou and spreads over Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Qinghai, Ningxia and Xinjiang. It gets its name from the echoing sound you can hear when you step on the sands. Strangely, the sounds stop when you bring the sands away from the Gorge. The other strange phenomenon is the vast grasslands beside the desert, which stops as if someone drew a line to divide the "reen" and "yellow." You can't help but admire the power of nature, and will be at a loss for words to describe the scenerRecent development of The Gorge has only slightly damaged its natural beauty, and reduced some of its danger. There are numerous sand dunes that rise to levels of over 90 meters. To climb them requires a lot physical strength, because the sand under your feet is constantly sliding. At high noon, the sand is hot, and stepping on it can help your body to relax. You can enjoy camel ride...

A wild weekend in Inner Mongolia(1)

Image
Next to Tibet , Inner Mongolia is one of China's most extraordinary places. You'll be fascinated by the mystique of its stunning grasslands, the Gobi desert, the energetic Naadam festival and the Mongolian way of li. The province is near Beijing, and you can easily go there and enjoy diverse cultures. Escaping the city on weekends is part of Beijing life. If you are tired of mountains, hot springs and historic sites, why not head a little further north to Inner Mongolia, where you can enjoy a travel experience not found in other Chinese provinces. Inner Mongolia is suitable for travel in all four seasons. In summer, you head there to escape the hot weather and enjoy a windy night on the grasslands under a tapestry of shining stars. In the autumn, the leaves turn red and yellow and you can see the region's may "painted" forests. For more adventurous travelers, head there in winter to see snow-covered sand dunes and experience cold da with temperatures always 20 d...

Beijing's 798 Art District

Image
Beijing is a city of fifteen million and rapidly growing, but that alone does not explain its thriving visual arts scene: of the sheer number and diversity of artists currently working here. And where better to start than a look at Beijng’s 798 Art District? It’s an art scene on the move, and this is just one of a number of its lanes. It was just by chance that this modish pair flashed by as I was focusing on this sign, although I did react quickly! 798’s scale is better represented by this map. It’s located on what, a few years back, was Beijing’s eastern periphery: then a moribund factory area in the Dashanzi area and “798” refers to the designation of the original Bauhaus factory that became the first of the many galleries that have sprung up-40% in the last year alone. The almost completed subway line 10 will further increase the momentum-though not perhaps of the zone! There is so much to see here-and even newer art zones- that this is but the first of a series of articles. Enviro...

Adopters Sought for Architectural Relics

Image
This undated photo shows a typical ancient residential building in Huangshan city. The city is seeking adopters worldwide who can help protecting the architectural relics. [File Photo: cnsphoto] Huangshan city in eastern China's Anhui province, where the UNESCO world heritage site Mount Huangshan is located, is adopting a new way to protect its cultural relics. Xinhua News Agency says the city will soon kick off a system of global solicitation for adopters who wish to protect its thousands of ancient residential buildings. Adopters will be granted the rights of habitation and use, while at the same time being responsible for maintaining the architectural styles and structures of the sites. Preferred adopters are organizations, families and individuals. The report didn't say how much one needs to pay to adopt a building. The plan comes when financial problems has become obstacles to city governments preserving certain buildings, many of which have survived for hundreds of ...

How to score Olympic tickets

Image
Now is the time to act if you want to be one of the lucky ones to witness the opening of the Olympics at China National Stadium on the evening of August 8, 2008. The first phase of ticket reservation for the Beijing Olympics started on April 15. More than 7 million tickets were opened for sale to the public, 75 percent of which will be sold in China, and 25 percent overseas. It was reported that on that first day, more than 50,000 people submitted ordering forms successfully on the official website www.tickets.beijing2008.cn, placing orders for 250,000 tickets. The website received 18 million person/time visits in two days. Luckily, everybody is likely to have the same chance to the most popular tickets if applying before the first phase ends on June 30, 2007. A computer-operated draw will determine who gets tickets for oversubscribed events. So you still have two months' time to get a chance to enter the draw. And who knows, maybe you can get your tickets directly if the ones yo...

China's Great Wall: Where Men Are Made

Image
A proud father carries his wide-eyed son up the steeply stepped Great Wall near Beijing. After all, with a total length of 35,000 miles the Great Wall(s) can fairly be said to be the greatest feat of engineering in the world. Much of it has been reconstructed and without this section’s recently installed railings it would be even more daunting. The fascinating Discovery Channel doco “Secrets of the Great Wall” identifies four distinct walls that traverse both deserts and mountains. Much of this has been damaged and remains under threat. A devoted few like Cheng Dalin continue to pore over ancient texts to unlock such discoveries as an earlier forgotten wall. William Lindesay is another. (See “The Great Wall Revisited” China Pictorial 3/2007) Wall building is a fundamental feature of China and the Chinese have long surrounded their homes and cities with protective walls. Indeed, the Chinese written character for “wall” is also that for “city”. But the challenge of walling off such a hug...
