中國運河第一城－揚州 | the first canal city in China - Yangzhou HD
中國有許多美麗的城市，揚州是其中獨具魅力的一個城市，是個令人魂牽夢繞的地方。
揚州，古稱廣陵、江都、維揚，是江蘇省地級市，地處江蘇中部、長江與將行大運河交匯處，有著“中國運河第一城”的美譽。
與揚州邂逅於瘦西湖，泛舟游於瘦西湖之上，風景顯得格外秀麗。
品淮揚菜系（揚州炒飯，獅子頭），賞揚州彈詞，足以機視聽之娛，信可樂也。
揚州濃厚的文化底蘊無一不影響著一代代揚州人，馬可波羅紀念館，雙博館，工藝美術館，如何不讓人流連忘返？
走在雙東歷史文化街區，人們彷彿置身於明清古城區的大街。
There are a lot of beautiful cities in China, and Yangzhou is one of the most charming places.
Yangzhou, called Guangling, Jiangdu, and Weiyang in old days, is a prefecture-level city located at the intersection of central Jiangsu, Yangtze River, and Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and is renowned as “the first canal city in China”.
You can encounter Yangzhou in the Slender West Lake, boating on the river and enjoying the beauty of nature.
Taking a bite of Huaiyang cuisine (such as Yangzhou fried rice and meatballs) and listening to Yangzhou Tanci will be entertaining and relaxing.
The rich cultural heritage in Yangzhou influences natives from generation to generation. Marco Polo Memorial, China Block Printing Museum and Yangzhou Museum, and Art Museum will make you don’t want to tear yourself away.

쑤저우를 지난 대운하는 양쯔강을 만난다. 흔히 장강이라고 부르는, 중국에서 가장 긴 강, 양쯔강을 건너서 대운하는 계속 북으로 향한다. 대운하로 물류의 중심지가 된 도시, 양저우로 간다. 양주팔괴 기념관을 찾았다. “왜 양조우에 오면 양주팔괴를 봐야하나요?” “양주팔괴가 유명하잖아요? 그들이 난이나 대나무를 아주 잘 그렸습니다. 서체도 매우 독창적이고 여러 가지 서법을 사용했습니다. 음양서법을 자유롭게 구사했는데 그건 쉬운 일이 아니죠. 그들의 서체는 다른 유파들과는 달라요. 기이하지만 아주 아름답습니다.“ 이들이 자유로운 작품세계를 구가 할 수 있었던 데는 대운하가 한 역할을 했다. 물류의 중심지가 된 양저우에서 소금 상인들이 큰돈을 벌게 되자 예술 후원자로 나섰던 것이다. 거대 상업 자본의 후원 속에서 싹튼 자유로운 창작 분위기가 이들이 기존의 화풍을 타파할 수 있는 원동력이 되었던 것이다. 이들은 천재적인 개성과 순수 예술 정신을 내세워 세태를 비판하고, 낯선 서체와 독창적인 화법으로 당시 예술계에 활력을 불어 넣었다. “그들의 인장은 매우 좋습니다. 요즘 사람들은 인장을 잘 모르죠. 하지만, 옛사람들은 인장을 매우 소중히 했죠. 어떤 그림에 어떤 인장을 사용할 것인지 매우 신경을 썼습니다. 인장이 아주 많았는데 전부 직접 팠습니다. 이건 하나의 유묵예술입니다.“ 여행지에서 멋진 예술 작품을 만나는 것은 호사다. 자유분방함을 느끼게 하는 양주팔괴 작품은 내 마음을 가볍게 해주었다. 그들의 자유로움에 마음의 찬사를 보낸다.

Mapping the Landscape: Vision, Memory & Place-Making
Xin Conan-Wu gave a richly illustrated lecture exploring the story of mapping the landscape in 12th-century China, when the center of politics and economy was shifting from the north to the south and military defeats spurred a new search for identity. Wu examined visual, physical and textual materials in poetry, paintings, prints, architecture, gardens, landscape and philosophy and explored the impact of pedagogy and ritual upon vision and place-making, as well as the relationship between education and natural environment.
Speaker Biography: Xin Conan-Wu specializes in the history of the representation of nature in East Asia art and global contemporary environmental art and landscape architecture. As a Kluge Fellow at the Library, Wu has leveraged the Library's collections to help develop a book manuscript, Vision and Place-Making in the Neo-Confucian Academies of Song China. He is an associate professor of art and art history at the College of William and Mary.

SUMMARY
=======
The Yangtze or Yangzi (English: or ), which is 6,300 km (3,915 mi) long, is the longest river in Asia, the third-longest in the world and the longest in the world to flow entirely within one country. Its source is in the northern part of the Tibetan Plateau and it flows 6,300 km (3,900 mi) in a generally eastern direction to the East China Sea. It is the sixth-largest river by discharge volume in the world. Its drainage basin comprises one-fifth of the land area of China, and is home to nearly one-third of the country's population.The Yangtze has played a major role in the history, culture and economy of China. For thousands of years, the river has been used for water, irrigation, sanitation, transportation, industry, boundary-marking and war. The prosperous Yangtze River Delta generates as much as 20% of the PRC's GDP. The Three Gorges Dam on the Yangtze is the largest hydro-electric power station in the world. In mid-2014, the Chinese government announced it was building a multi-tier transport network, comprising railways, roads and airports, to create a new economic belt alongside the river.The Yangtze flows through a wide array of ecosystems and is habitat to several endemic and endangered species including the Chinese alligator, the narrow-ridged finless porpoise, the Chinese paddlefish, the (extinct) Yangtze River dolphin or baiji, and the Yangtze sturgeon. In recent years, the river has suffered from industrial pollution, plastic pollution, agricultural run-off, siltation, and loss of wetland and lakes, which exacerbates seasonal flooding. Some sections of the river are now protected as nature reserves. A stretch of the upstream Yangtze flowing through deep gorges in western Yunnan is part of the Three Parallel Rivers of Yunnan Protected Areas, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

SUMMARY
=======
Rimini (Italian pronunciation: [ˈriːmini] (listen); Romagnol: Rémin; Latin: Ariminum) is a city of 150,292 inhabitants in the Emilia-Romagna region of northern Italy and capital city of the Province of Rimini. It is located on the Adriatic Sea, on the coast between the rivers Marecchia (the ancient Ariminus) and Ausa (ancient Aprusa). It is one of the most famous seaside resorts in Europe, thanks to its 15-kilometre-long (9 mi) sandy beach, over 1,000 hotels, and thousands of bars, restaurants and discos. The first bathing establishment opened in 1843.
An art city with ancient Roman and Renaissance monuments, Rimini is the hometown of the famous film director Federico Fellini as well.
Founded by the Romans in 268 BC, throughout their period of rule Rimini was a key communications link between the north and south of the peninsula, and on its soil Roman emperors erected monuments like the Arch of Augustus and the Tiberius Bridge, while during the Renaissance, the city benefited from the court of the House of Malatesta, which hosted artists like Leonardo da Vinci and produced works such as the Tempio Malatestiano.
In the 19th century, Rimini was one of the most active cities in the revolutionary front, hosting many of the movements aimed at Italian unification. In the course of World War II, the city was the scene of clashes and bombings, but also of a fierce partisan resistance that earned it the honour of a gold medal for civic valor. Finally, in recent years it has become one of the most important sites for trade fairs and conferences in Italy.
The total approximate population of the Rimini urban area is 225,000 and the provincial population is 330,000.
