Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Shenyang ([ʂə̀n.jǎŋ]; Chinese: 沈阳), formerly known by its Manchu name Mukden or Fengtian (Chinese: 奉天; pinyin: Fèngtiān), is the provincial capital and the largest city of Liaoning Province, People's Republic of China, as well as the largest city in Northeast China by urban population. According to the 2010 census, the city's urban area has 6.3 million inhabitants, while the total population of the Shenyang municipality, which holds the administrative status of a sub-provincial city, is up to 8.1 million. Shenyang is also the center city of one of the major metropolitan areas in China, the Greater Shenyang Metro Area, with a total population over 23 million. The city’s region includes the ten metropolitan districts of Shenyang proper, the county-level city of Xinmin, and two counties of Kangping and Faku.
In the 17th century, Shenyang was conquered by the Manchu people and briefly used as the capital of the Qing dynasty. The Battle of Mukden took place in 1905 as part of the Russo-Japanese War. Japan's subsequent victory allowed them to increase their influence on Shenyang; the Mukden Incident led the Japanese to further invade and occupy the rest of Northeast China, creating the puppet state of Manchukuo. Shenyang remained a Kuomintang stronghold after Japan's defeat, but was captured by the communists in 1948.
Along with its nearby cities, Shenyang is an important industrial center in China, and serves as the transportation and commercial hub of China's northeast—particularly with Japan, Russia and Korea. A center of heavy industry in China since the 1930s, and the spearhead of the Chinese central government's Northeast Area Revitalization Plan, the city has been diversifying its industry, including expanding into the service sector. Growing industries include software, automotive and electronics.

SUMMARY
=======
The Qing dynasty, officially the Great Qing (), was the last imperial dynasty of China. It was established in 1636, and ruled China proper from 1644 to 1912. It was preceded by the Ming dynasty and succeeded by the Republic of China. The Qing multi-cultural empire lasted for almost three centuries and formed the territorial base for modern China. It was the fifth largest empire in world history.
The dynasty was founded by the Manchu Aisin Gioro clan in Manchuria. In the late sixteenth century, Nurhaci, originally a Ming Jianzhou Guard vassal, began organizing Banners, military-social units that included Manchu, Han, and Mongol elements. Nurhaci formed the Manchu clans into a unified entity. By 1636, his son Hong Taiji began driving Ming forces out of Liaodong and declared a new dynasty, the Qing. In 1644, peasant rebels led by Li Zicheng conquered the Ming capital, Beijing. Rather than serve them, Ming general Wu Sangui made an alliance with the Manchus and opened the Shanhai Pass to the Banner Armies led by the regent Prince Dorgon, who defeated the rebels and seized the capital. Resistance from the Southern Ming and the Revolt of the Three Feudatories led by Wu Sangui delayed the Qing conquest of China proper by nearly four decades. The conquest was only completed in 1683 under the Kangxi Emperor reign (1661–1722). The Ten Great Campaigns of the Qianlong Emperor from the 1750s to the 1790s extended Qing control into Inner Asia. The early Qing rulers maintained their Manchu customs, and while their title was Emperor, they used Bogd khaan when dealing with the Mongols and they were patrons of Tibetan Buddhism. They governed using Confucian styles and institutions of bureaucratic government and retained the imperial examinations to recruit Han Chinese to work under or in parallel with Manchus. They also adapted the ideals of the tributary system in dealing with neighboring territories.
During the Qianlong Emperor reign (1735–1796) the dynasty reached its apogee, but then began its initial decline in prosperity and imperial control. The population rose to some 400 millions, but taxes and government revenues were fixed at a low rate, virtually guaranteeing eventual fiscal crisis. Corruption set in, rebels tested government legitimacy, and ruling elites failed to change their mindsets in the face of changes in the world system. Following the Opium Wars, European powers imposed unequal treaties, free trade, extraterritoriality and treaty ports under foreign control. The Taiping Rebellion (1850–1864) and the Dungan Revolt (1862–1877) in Central Asia led to the deaths of some 20 million people, most of them due to famines caused by war. In spite of these disasters, in the Tongzhi Restoration of the 1860s, Han Chinese elites rallied to the defense of the Confucian order and the Qing rulers. The initial gains in the Self-Strengthening Movement were destroyed in the First Sino-Japanese War of 1895, in which the Qing lost its influence over Korea and the possession of Taiwan. New Armies were organized, but the ambitious Hundred Days' Reform of 1898 was turned back in a coup by the conservative Empress Dowager Cixi. When the Scramble for Concessions by foreign powers triggered the violently anti-foreign Boxers, the foreign powers invaded China, Cixi declared war on them, leading to defeat and the flight of the Imperial Court to Xi'an.
After agreeing to sign the Boxer Protocol, the government initiated unprecedented fiscal and administrative reforms, including elections, a new legal code, and abolition of the examination system. Sun Yat-sen and other revolutionaries competed with constitutional monarchists such as Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao to transform the Qing Empire into a modern nation. After the deaths of Cixi and the Guangxu Emperor in 1908, the hardline Manchu court alienated reformers and local elites alike by obstructing social reform. The Wuchang Uprisi ...

Travel Back Old Taipei | Dihua District 台北迪化街
Growing up in #Taiwan I've always known Dihua Street strictly from TV during Chinese New year. Since this is an area where the older generations prefer to shop for their new year ingredients, this district in Taipei never peaked an interest in me. I took the #Taipei metro with my mom who was hoping this would be a nice little getaway from the hustle bustle in downtown Taipei. Dihua district was exactly that because it took us back in time to a period where Baroque architecture was the trend. The variety of dried goods has been particularly intriguing from the aroma to its colors. These are the type of products that you simply can't find in the local grocery stores or 7-11.

Nuova Manciuria. La Cina a Nord Est
Mostra fotografica: Nuova Manciuria. La Cina a Nord Est.
La mostra fotografica Nuova Manciuria. La Cina a Nord Est di Francesco Lucania si inaugura il 14 febbraio 2013, alla Biblioteca civica Villa Amoretti di Torino.
Novanta fotografie, su pellicola e in digitale, cinque pannelli esplicativi sulle città:
Harbin, Changchun, Shenyang, Dandong, Dalian, una carta geografica per seguire le tappe del lungo viaggio, sei gigantografie di acquerelli cinesi su tela degli anni '60, testimonianza di un viaggio durato un mese in Manciuria; incominciato nella mente del viaggiatore da molto tempo, fra timore e incertezze, curiosità, letture, studi, quelli che più appassionano il fotografo Francesco Lucania.
Il 30 agosto 2012 il volo per Pechino, inizia il viaggio in Oriente ai confini della sua amata Russia.
La prima tappa è la città di Harbin a sud della Siberia, famosa per le sue sculture di ghiaccio, rappresentata in mostra attraverso l'immagine della cattedrale di Santa Sofia, chiaro riferimento all'architettura russa, con le sue cupole richiamo evidente della Chiesa di San Basilio nella piazza Rossa di Mosca; nella stessa città possiamo ammirare il Tempio di Confucio, dalle facciate variopinte.
Non dimentichiamo che alle porte di Harbin i giapponesi crearono il loro primo campo di sterminio con esperimenti batteriologici, su esseri umani vivi, studi sul dolore su donne e bambini.
La Manciuria infatti dal 1932 al 1945 fu uno stato fantoccio, soggiogato dal Giappone con capitale Changchun. In molti edifici si può ancora notare l'influenza dell'architettura giapponese, classico esempio è il palazzo imperiale.
La sezione più ampia è quella sulla città di Shenyang, gemellata con Torino dal 1985: propone un ampio reportage fotografico sulla città proibita (la seconda della Cina dopo Pechino) che ci affascina con i suoi particolari di draghi variopinti.
Diversi i luoghi di culto rappresentati: la pagoda delle ceneri di Buddha, meglio conosciuta come la Pagoda del Nord, e il Mausoleo della dinastia Qing, che sostituì la dinastia Ming e rimase al potere fino al 1912.
Shenyang dista da Dandong 225 chilometri: quest'ultima è una città al confine con la Corea del Nord, considerata l'Hong Kong del Nord-Est, osservando il ponte sul fiume Yalu, lo sguardo si perde all'infinito.
Particolare suggestioni suscitano 12 scatti su pellicola in bianco e nero, che regalano ancora più fascino a una Cina al confine, mostrando tra l'altro uno scorcio della grande muraglia, una statua di Mao e quella di un guerriero testimoni di storia antica e moderna.
Il fotografo Francesco Lucania non dimentica di mostrarci, la trasformazione delle antiche città circondate, da grattacieli sfavillanti e costruzioni moderne come ad Harbin e Changchun.
Rese immortali dallo scatto della macchina fotografica, queste immagini sono solo una parte della testimonianza storica di una Manciura che sta cambiando e della quale non sappiamo molto, noi occidentali.
Questa mostra, molto diversificata, offre l'opportunità di spostarci fra le strade della Manciuria attraverso lo sguardo di un fotografo attento e sensibile, al quale non sfuggano i particolari decorativi di una fenice, quelli di dragone, di un leone, o quello di un viso imbellettato di un attore in costume che tramanda la sua antica tradizione in un parco della città di Dalian.
L'esposizione -- curata nei minimi dettagli, dopo una selezione difficile fra moltissimi scatti -- lascia al pubblico la possibilità di viaggiare e attraversare il suolo d'Oriente rimanendo con i piedi saldi in Occidente.
Nel viaggio l'artista era solo, ma attraverso un fitto scambio di e mail, ha portato con sé i suoi amici più cari, Cristina Fanelli, Bruno Gambarotta, Giovanni Tesio, Luca Vittonetto, Maria Francesca Gallifanti e altri ancora, regalando loro un sogno, un sogno ad occhi aperti, quello che solo la scrittura e le immagini possono donare.
Le distanze erano annullate... «si riesce a dialogare da qualsiasi punto della terra» ha scritto il viaggiatore nel suo secondo giorno alla scoperta di Changchun.
Sotto lo sguardo attento di una città sempre in fermento, quello della Mole di Antonelli, inizia il viaggio in una mostra eclettica, piena di suggestioni, emozioni e spunti di riflessione, che necessita di più di una visita, per coglierne ogni sfumatura e riconoscere, attraverso la propria l'anima, quella sensibile dell'artista.
