Guang Zhou and Other Places in China

I will go to visit my aunt who lived in another city. It's a southern city of China, about 1000 kilometers from my city. The name of this city is Guang Zhou. Have you heard about this city before? That's a very beautiful city. It has a byname : Flower City. Because in Guang Zhou, you can see different kinds of flowers all year. 4 seasons, thousands of flowers. The ceremony for the New Year's Eve in this city is the flower market. People walking on the streets, and the streets are full of flowers. Even in spring, the weather in Guang Zhou is very warm. That's the reason why there are so many flowers. I've been there twice. Once I've been there with my father, the other time, I lived there with one of my best friend. This time I want to go with my mother. She misses her sister very much, and I miss my aunt too. My cousin who just 3 months older than me is my aunt's son. He's a guide and he's very kind.

I found some pics for you. I took them in this spring. You can see other landscapes of China in these pics. I hope you like them. In some of the pics, you will see the headstream of a very famous waterfall: Lu mountain waterfall. One of our most famous poet:LiBai (the excellentest poet in Tang dynasty) had writen the poem for this waterfall. I can't translate it for you very well. Because this kind of poem is writen with the ancient prose (the ancient Chinese). It's very short, but beautiful and meaningful. I will still try to translate the most famed sentence of this poem to modern English : The waterfall runs and flows down nearly 3000 kilometers, I almost doubt that's the Milky Way runs down from the sky. I'm sorry I can't communicate all the meaning of the sentence in English. Because even in Chinese, translate the ancent Chinese to modern Chinese will lose many meanings of the poem. I think you know the poem in Tang dynasty is the treasure of our literary mine. I hope you can understand the synopsises of this sentence.

One of my personal photoes, you can see me in dress.
