« View Properties for Sale or Rent in Beijing »Wuxi is a popular tourist destination within the JiangSu Province that's at once exotic and cosmopolitan. It is among China's oldest cities and is known by locals as "Little Shanghai," which is about 90 minutes to the west of its larger sibling. Unbeknownst to many, Wuxi previouisly ranked 2nd in Forbes magazine's Top 10 List of China's Best Places for Business! Lending greatly to this is Wuxi's thriving New District. A premier investment location, it is at the forefront of national high-tech industrial development and home to more than 1,300 foreign-funded projects with a total investment of more than $10 billion. Headed by such flagship enterprises as Suntech Power and Evermore Software, WND is expected to complete a built-up area of one million square meters for software & animation, and another one million for R&D and innovative incubation. Wuxi's skyline is awe-inspiring yet the serenity of Taihu Lake, one of Wuxi's natural wonders, is only moments away...
Taihu Lake, one of the country's most popular tourist attractions, is the nearby site for the city's latest developmental undertaking, the remarkable Glamourous City. With designs on upgrading and creating a large-scale community within the decidedly more rural environment, one of China's most renowned developers, Vanke, has produced a full-scale project with a four-year plan of sizable scale and scope some 20 minutes on the outskirts of Wuxi's City Center. Just minutes by taxi or a short walk away sits one of the region's premiere European developments, Venice Garden. And another few minutes away sits the splendid campus for JiangNan University.
Shanghai is China's largest city with a population of nearly 20 million and serves as the business lifeline for the country with a number of seaports and international conglomerates dotting the landscape to create its largest commercial and financial center. It's Mainland China's answer to Hong Kong with its cosmopolitan character and global appeal. Shanghai is home to the famously popular Bund District, which houses dozens of historical buildings along the Huang Pu River, which separates the city's two major sections, the traditional Puxi to the west and futuristic Pudong to the east, highlighted by the spectacular Pearl TV Tower. While Beijing welcomed the 2008 Olympic Games, Shanghai has plans to welcome a new Disneyland Theme Park along with Universal Studios, and to top it all off, will play host to the 2010 World Expo! Located in the center of Shanghai, Xin Tian Di is a popular tourist attraction composed of Shikumen (old Shanghai tenement housing) and modern architecture. Within its two-square block design sits a pleasant pedestrian street lined with international galleries, bars and cafes, boutique shops, and theme restaurants. Shanghai Xin Tian Di in itself is a microcosm of the city, where old world heritage merges with modern progress. Shanghai Highlights Travel offers all kinds of Shanghai Tours, including Shanghai day tours, special tour packages of Shanghai, and Shanghai weekend tours.
« View Properties for Sale or Rent in Shanghai »Known as the "Cradle of Chinese Nationality," Xi'an is a city with a long history in which many ancient Chinese dynasties established their capitals and was one of the country's Seven Ancient Capitals for more than a thousand years. Xi'an is ranked among the ten largest cities in the entire nation and is home to a population of more than eight million. A foremost feature of the city, whose literal meaning is "Western Peace," is the country's greatest archeological excavation, the Terracotta Warriors, life-sized terracotta figures of warriors and horses arranged in battle formations. The State Council authorized the building of a museum on the site for the protection of the discovery, which now encompasses more than 8,000 pottery soldiers, horses, chariots, and weapons on display. Xi'an is also one of the most popular tourist destinations, where several thousand foreign and Chinese visitors arrive every year. It is also known as one of the academic centers in China with its number of institutions following after only Beijing and Shanghai.

So why isn't Chengdu mentioned in the same sentence with such highlighted cities as Beijing and Shanghai? One reason could be due to its location in central China, effectively shielded from the higher profile locations along the eastern coast. While many Chinese cities have undergone some degree of change in name, rank and status throughout the years, Chengdu has been and still remains the capital of the Sichuan (“Four Rivers”) province, serving as the region’s center of commerce, politics and traditional Chinese medicine. It is one of the wealthiest cities in China, and also one of the country's most important transportation and communication hubs. And perhaps much like Beijing, peering through this modern day growth period and affluence, it is Chengdu’s rich history that still serves as the core of its character. For in spite of all its international scope and modern day progress, many can still appreciate it for its age-old charm and leisurely ambience.
