Lovely panders are not only the national treasure of China, but also the jewelry valued rare animal all over the world. Even sometimes it is the symbolic of international peace and friendliness.

Panders mainly reside in Sichuan, Shannxi and Gansu provinces. The Sichuan— in cities like Dujiangyan, Chongzhou, Dayi and Pengzhou.

To enhance the protection of panders, Chengdu government set up Longxi- Hongkou state reserve in Dujiangyan, Anzihe Provincial reserve for panders in Chongzhou, and Heishuihe of county level in Dayi.

      Only two days left before my unwilling return to the isolated school. Compared to Xi’an I love my hometown much much more than my description. There are lots of things and leisurements in Chengdu which could hardly be found in Xi’an. I love this city and the way of life people living in it follow.

     The most popular intertainments are tea drinking and majiong.

      Teahouses in downtown Chengdu can be found here and there. They cater to tea drinkers, old and young, who come to meet and have a chat about everything ranging from trivial chores to political debates. Teahouses, which were much popular in ancient China, add to the city’s perception of leisure and an ancient flavor. But tea houses in parks appeal most to elderly people. For over ten years, this group of people come to the park every day. Usually they bring tealeaves themselves and the teahouse provides boiled water. For each of them, one yuan is sufficient for their stay here a whole day. 

      Visitors to Chengdu said that the sound of mahjong can be heard at every corner of the city. It’s not an exaggeration.

      There is a popular saying among senior people which sounds pretty appealing in local dialect. It can be literally translated as “if we enjoy nutritious food and happy entertainment, we make good use of social insurance which can be drawn from the bank when the people go to a certain age”. This saying shows Chengdu people’s contentment about their plain but happy life. And I am one of them.

     Huaqing Pool locates east of the city of Xi’an. In the Tang dynasty, Li Shimin (Emperor Tai Zong) ordered to construct the Hot Spring Palace, and Emperor Xuan Zong had a walled palace built around Lishan Mountain in 747. It was known as the Huaqing Palace. It also had the name Huaqing Pool on account of its location on the hot springs.

        Close by the Frost Drifting Hall lies the Nine Dragon Pool. According to legend, the Central Shaanxi Plain was once stricken by a severe drought in the very remote past. Thus, by the order of the Jade Emperor (the Supreme Deity of Heaven), an old dragon came at the head of eight young ones, and made rain here. Yet when the disaster was just abating, they lowered their guard so much that it became serious again. In a fit of anger, the Jade Emperor kept the young dragons under the Jade Cause Way (玉堤), with the Morning Glow Pavilion and the Sunset Pavilion built at both ends of it respectively, to make the young dragons spout clear water all day long to meet the needs of local irrigation. Besides, he had the old dragon confined to the bottom of the Roaring Dragon Waterside Pavilion situated at the upper end of the Jade Causeway, and obliged him to exercise control over the young. 

  Chengdu, unshamefully speaking, is the most beautiful city I’ve ever been to. HahHah“ Actually, I haven’t been to any other cities except C.D. and Xi’an. But I’m not saying Xi’an isn’t wonderful. It is. However, comparisonlly speaking, I’m just used to the inviroment in my hometown.  Well, I guess it may apply to everyone that hometown ought to be the most comfortable place to live in.

  When you go to C.D., the first and most likely place to be recommended is the Tianfu Square, The Abundence Square in English.

  Not before long had the square reopened to the public after a long period  of decoration and reconstruction. The newly built square in significantly amazing, both in the appearance and the intentional meanings of every unit in the complex.

It is extraordinarily terrific at night.

  On the whole, the it is square and the main body clearly outlines a figure of Taiji.

  The general planning and design is operated by the world famous architect Pei LeohMing.

  This is the sculpt of flying dragon.

 It represents the inviolable diginity of our nation. Actually there are two sculps like this locating east and west on the square respectively.

   Around the squre, there stand 12 pillars, recording some significant historic sayings on them.

  The totem of the sungod bird is also applied.

There are quite a lot to say about the amazing new square. In addition, C.D. has been awarded one of the best tourist cities in China. And I think the city deserves it.

  All right, let’s call it a day.

  The climate in my hometown is mild and very suitable for inhabitation. It has the typical subtropical monsoon climate., with early-coming spring, hot summer, cool autumn and mild winter. 

  An obvious case you may observe in CD(Chengdu) city is the misty weather occurring frequently. However, the sunlight is not very sufficient in the entire Sichuan basin. There is an interesting proverb says “ the dog in Sichuan province would bark at the sun”, vividly describing the climate feature in my hometown. 

  Another characteristic of the CD city is her damp air in it all year around. Consequently, it may feel hotter than it really is in summer; gloomy and colder in winter. The features of its climate have great influence on the food and drink in Sichuan. The damp weather and lack of sunshine make residents favor hot pepper and high-proof white wine so as to keep them from being afflicted with rheumatism.

    It’s about to be two months since I left my hometown for Xi’an this semester. Though a junior student I am now, I still miss my mother town now and then. Well, some brief introduction about the amazing city for you:

    Chengdu is the capital city ofSichuan province.  It locates in the middle west of China and in the center of the Chengdu plain. Although her location is not as predominant as cities like Beijing and Shanghai, she is actually a swiftly developing and modern central city in China.

    Besides her financial, communicational and technological significance, her charming can also be date back to 4000 years ago. It had been the capital city of the Period of Three Kingdoms, the Five Dynasties and the Northern Song dynasty.

    The names of my hometown are various and interesting. During the Period of Three Kingdom, it was the capital city of Shu, from which its most wildly known name was derived. Meanwhile, the king of the country liked cotton rose (mu fu rong in Chinese) very much and planted numerous cotton rose trees in his territory. That’s why Chengdu is also called Rong Cheng. Another name of her is called Jin Cheng. Jin, in English, is brocade. As a centre producing brocade, it was named Jin Cheng for its beautiful textile.
