My hometown Jingzhou is about 1000 Kilometers south away from Beijing. Now the climate here is totally different from Beijing. In China, if you mention Jingzhou anytime, everyone will know where you are from because it is so famous in this ancient country. Do you know the one of the most famous Chinese classics ‘San Guo Yan Yi’, also called ‘The Romance of the Three Kingdoms’. This ancient novel describes the history and battles among three dynasties in ancient China, Wei, Shu, Wu, thousands of years ago,. In this novel, it mentions Jingzhou many times, almost everyone knows these famous stories in the novel so Jingzhou is well-known in China. Just like all American people know the novel ‘Adventures of Tom Sawyer', right? I really love this small peaceful city though it is a little untidy. By the way, it is on the Changjing River, most foreigners also call it Yangtze River. It is a great mother river for Chinese.
