In which Chinese City is it best to live if you are black?

In the West, some places are very bad to live in if you are black: France, southern U.S., Chile, are some examples. 

Brazil is a pretty good place to live, especially the state of Bahia. Also, in Central America and in the Caribbean you can find places that are OK. 

What about in China? 

Friends who lived in Beijing said it wasn't very comfortable, not because anybody was hostile, but just because everybody would stare at them. 

I suppose there are other parts of China where this doesn't happen.

Looking for slang words in Chinese... thanks! I have an excellent Chinese teacher here in Brasilia. She is a hero, to have put up with my phenomenal ignorance up to now! But she does not seem too inclined to teach me Chinese slang (quite the purist, in terms of language!). Italki is my only hope, people! Xiexie ninmen!

How common is it to use opposite-formed question words, such as "daxiao" (what size)? If "long-short" means "how long?", why doesn't "far-near" mean "how far?"

una forma de realmente practicar mandarín juntos Si aprender nuevas palabras en chino es divertido, aprenderemos más rápido. Propongo que nos juntemos para estudiar. Rongyi! (容易） = fácil.
Beijing = capital del norte (bei 北）
Nanjing = "capital del sur" (nan 南）。

once in a blue moon It means "very rarely", and comes from the English meaning: a month in which there are two full moons (they occur, but not often). Is there a similar expression in Chinese? hanzi + pinyin would be greatly appreciated :)

"face" and "appearance" Is there a word in Mandarin that means both "face" and "appearance" (or "looks", "expression", "countenance", etc)?
