The City of Beijing and history of China

Beijing is really too big.
As a matter of fact, Beijing is immense not merely in a physical sense. As the capital of New China, Beijing is an all-round city functionally, serving as the center for the performance of political, economic, military, diplomatic, scientific and technological, cultural and educational, athletic and informational functions. Here are located the biggest party, political and military organizations, the biggest financial and commercial enterprises, the biggest scientific research units, the biggest colleges and universities, the biggest information networks, the biggest stadiums, publishing houses, newspaper offices, broadcasting stations and television stations and the biggest international airfield. The embassies of all foreign countries of the world are assembled here. The elite of every country of the world may be encountered here. Items of important news are received or issued at this place.
What is more, Beijing is not only the capital of New China. It was the secondary capital of what is called the Liao Dynasty and the central capital of what is calling the Jin Dynasty in the history of China. It was the capital of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. It is not difficult to imagine how tragic the historical events were that occurred here. The Liao Dynasty was established by an alien people, who occupied a large part of China’s territory on the north side of the Yangtze River and were constantly at war with the Chinese people. The Liao Dynasty lasted more than two hundred years (907---1125). There are many stories about the heroic struggle that the Chinese waged against the Liaos. But it was a new invading power, the Jin people, that completely destroyed the Liaos. The Jins originated in what is now the northeastern part of China. After defeating the Liaos they invaded China and occupied the entire territory on the north side of the Yangtze River. The emperor of China (of the then Soong Dynasty) fled to the south of the Yangtze River. The Jins killed the Liaos and treated the Chinese on the north side of Yangtze as slaves and servants. The Jin Dynasty existed for one hundred and twenty years. Then the Mongols came. They literally annihilated the Jins and later took possession of the entire territory of China. They founded the Yuan Dynasty and located their “Big Capital” at Beijing. The Ming and Qing Dynasties that followed Yuan also designated Beijing as their capital city. It is really inconceivable that the filthy and abominable sediments of a history of one thousand years of slaughter and oppression could have been swept off in a few years after the inauguration of the People’s Republic of China. Now let’s ruminate over the past events and contemplate in a spirit of scientific research the relics that meet our observant gaze. Beijing culture and History Forbidden city

Shanghai, vast and comprehensive, has a magnificence which is unusual even for a metropolis. Shanghai is not only the biggest city in China, the eighth biggest city in the world, and one of the four municipalities of China which is under the direct control of the Central Government. She is also the best and most impressive city, or, in other words, she is the city in China that is most worthy of the title of municipality. Like Beijing, Shanghai is a place of the country which every person of the whole nation yearns for. Shanghai is above all a place held in high esteem by people all over the country. Almost every Chinese knows that China cannot do without Shanghai, in the same way that the United States cannot dispense with New York.Shanghai is situated in East China, at the place where the Yangtze River and the Qiantang River converge into the sea, and that territory is part of the alluvial plain of the Yangtze Delta.The Municipality covers a total area of 7,037.50 square kilometers (ranking as the 31st by size among administrative regions of the provincial class). Of this total area, land accounts for 6,340 square kilometers (still expanding in construction work), waters account for 697 square kilometers, and the urban districts account for 289 square kilometers.At present, there are more than twenty million people living and working in Shanghai and her adjoining areas. The city has a population of 18.5422 million (in the year 2007, i.e. the 25th by size among administrative regions of the provincial class of China). The population density is 3,154 persons per square kilometers (by 2008, or the 3rd among administrative regions of the provincial class of China). The urban population of Shanghai is 14,530,000 persons (by 2007, or the first among the cities of China). The natural growth rate of permanent residents of the Municipality is 3.04 ??.Shanghai -best city of China
四合院

 四合院在中国有相当悠久的历史,根据现有的文物资料分析,早在两千多年前就有四合院形式的建筑出现。
在历史发展过程中,中国人特别喜爱四合院这种建筑形式,不仅宫殿、庙宇、官府使用四合院,而且各地的民居也广泛使用四合院。
为什么叫“四合院”呢?因为这种民居有正房(北房)、倒座(南座)、东厢房和西厢房四座房屋在四面围合,形成一个口字形,里面是一个中心庭院,所以这种院落式民居被称为四合院。
四合院是封闭式的住宅,对外只 有一个街门,关起门来自成天地,具有很强的私密性非常适合独家居住。院内,四面房子都向院落方向开门,一家人在里面和亲和美,其乐融融。
不过,只要人们一提到四合院,便自然会想到北京四合院,这是为什么呢?
北京四合院的型制规整,十分具有典型性,在各种各样的四合院当中,北京四合院可以代表其主要特点。北京四合院的东、西、南、北四个方向的房屋各自独立,东西厢房与正房、倒座的建筑本身并不连接,而且正房、厢房、倒座等所有房屋都为一层,没有楼房,连接这些房屋的只是转角处的游廊。这样,北京四合院从空中鸟瞰,就像是四座小盒子围合一个院落。。 
北京的四合院,院落宽绰疏朗,四面房屋各自独立,彼此之间有游廊联接,起居十分方便。
北 京四合院亲切宁静,有浓厚的生活气息,庭院方阔,尺度合宜,院中莳花置石,一般种植海棠树,列石榴盆景,以大缸养金鱼,寓意吉利,是十分理想的室外生活空 间,好比一座露天的大起居室,把天地拉近人心,最为人们所钟情。遇婚丧大事可在院内临时搭建大棚,以待宾客。抄手游廊把庭院分成几个大小空间,但分而不 隔,互相渗透,增加了层次的虚实映衬和光影对比,也使得庭院更符合人的日常生活尺度;家庭成员在这里得到交流,为创造亲切的生活情趣起了很大作用。北京四合院庭院方正,是为冬季多纳阳光。

 香港被誉为亚洲美食之都,也许没来过香港或没有在香港好好地享受一番美食的外国朋友会对这个称号有点不服气,也许你生长的地方也有很多美味佳肴,它们让你一生都钟情。我想你不用担心在香港吃不到你的家乡菜,在香港无论你想吃的是中国菜、亚洲菜、西菜抑或是国际菜,准不会令你失望。没错,这里的饮食业除了种类繁多,竞争激烈亦令水准得以维持,香港是让你尝尽世界各地美食的好地方。香港地处广东,所以中国的最大菜系之一的粤菜在香港不但一应俱全,而且常常出类拔萃。而且香港的饮食业一惯努力地学习`中国各地、东亚以至西方的菜式和烹饪方法,并将新原素注入本地菜式之中,推陈出新,精益求精。香港的道地饮食文化,不但承传中国传统,且受着外国文化的影响,可说荟萃中外特色。
香港是个不夜城,你可以在一天二十四小时里吃到各种令你流连忘返的美食,街道上满布商店和食肆,伴您从早到晚,消闲玩乐。让我在奥运会马术比赛期间来为你安排一天的美食之旅吧!
6:00AM  香港人喜欢“喝早茶”, 早茶其实是一顿丰盛的早餐,不论工作日还是休息日,扶老携幼,呼朋唤友喝早茶成为香港一个很独特的文化现象。早晨六点天还没大亮,食肆已开门营业了,大一点的酒楼食肆,会准备上百道点心供食客挑选,起源于广东的中式点心,早已在世界美食殿堂中占一席位。这些早点有的是需要现做的,有的已放在小蒸笼里,而小蒸笼底下有蒸气来使点心保持热度,有的放在小碟子里供食客挑选,与其它广东菜一样,点心着重用料的新鲜和清新的口感。烹调方法以蒸熟和稍微煎炸为主,务求保留食物本身的原味。点心份量少、造工细,它的哲学其实就是让人在一顿餐的时间内,品尝最多种类的食物和多种不同的味道。
香港吃早茶的地方很多,而美心皇宫绝对是值得推荐的地方。宽敞富丽的大堂里食客坐得满满当当,服务员推着小车穿行在餐桌间狭窄的缝隙中,顾客可以随意挑选车上的各色点心小吃。供应的品种太过丰富,几乎每一件都精致好味,堪称人间美点。如果你和五六位朋友一起去喝茶,每一样都可以取一份来尝试;如果只是两三个人,那最好拿一些有特色的招牌点心,如:虾饺,黑椒牛仔骨,豉汁蒸排骨;各种广式包子和糕点。
总之,一壶靓茶,几笼精致巧手的粤式点心,一顿早餐吃的如此惬意,喝早茶,讲究的是悠闲、雅致,是品味、是感觉,当然也是和朋友交流的好时机。
