Dear my distinguished guests,
Its my great honor to give all of you a brief introduction of my city, and I hope you all will have a good time here.
In the ancient land full of wonders, which we call china, there stands a beautiful city named Yancheng--The Orient Capital of Everglade. Every city has its own features. My city is no exception. With its cultural background, rich culture activities, civil customs and pleasant living environment, Yancheng has attracted an increasing number of guests from both home and aboard. Im privileged to be one of its citizens.
As we know, in China, peony symbolizes great wealth and high social status. There is a beautiful legend about deadwood peony. It is said that one day in winter, during the Tang Dynasty, the empress was wandering around the imperial garden while she was drunk and a strange idea struck her that she would like all the flowers to blossom as they do in spring. She wrote a poem and then burnt it to the Spirits of the flowers. Because of her cruelty, all the other Spirits of the flowers obeyed her and gave her a beautiful blossom the next day. The spirit of peony, however, disobeyed her because she believed it was against the natural rules. Seeing such a scene in winter, the empress laughed with great joy. But when she looked nearer, she frowned and became angered. She ordered the eunuchs to scratch all the peonies and put them on fire. The Spirit of peony suffered a great deal but she finally made it and survived. A general then took her faraway and planted here in our city. Though her woods became withered, she still tried her best to give us a good blossom.
There are two natural reserves in Yancheng; one is for Elaphurus davidianus (known as milu deer) in Dafeng city, and the other is for Red-crowned Crane in Sheyang County. These two kinds of creatures are national-level rare and endangered species and have been listed on first class national protected animals. There is also a touching story about a girl and the red-crowned crane. She was the breeder of the red-crowned cranes. One day when she went pass the everglade, she heard a crane whining. Because of her great love for the crane, without thinking about her own safety, she jumped into the everglade. The crane was saved but she lost her life. A song named the story of the red-crowned crane was specially composed for her. People will always remember her. Though she has been dead for years, she lives in our hearts. If you have the chance to pay a visit to the hometown of the red-crowned cranes in person, you will surely be impressed.
Yancheng is also the home to acrobatics and Huai opera. When it comes to Chinese operas, I have a strong appeal for them. They can improve our taste, broaden our horizons, and, most importantly, purify our souls. They make me explore the society in a different way. To put it into perspective, its the treasure of Chinese cultures. But, to my great sadness, it has been fading. By the way, Yancheng is also the origin of the New Fourth Army. If you want to know more, you can go either to the New-Fourth-Army Memorial Hall or to the museum of Yancheng city.
Yancheng is a city full of wonders, a city with profound cultures, and also a city with highly civilized citizens. You will know more about my city and gradually love this city whole-heartedly after visiting all those places mentioned above. May you have a great time here. If you have any problems, please feel free to contact me. Id be glad to be of any help to you.
