Title: Nanchang:A Blend of History,Beauty and Modern Dynamism
Abstract: NANCHANG earned its reputation as a beautiful city 1,300 years ago, when renowned Tang Dynasty poet Wang Bo wrote his famous prose work Foreword to Prince Teng Pavilion, and his words have been attracting literati and commoners alike to the city’s Prince Teng Pavilion ever since. Today, the pavilion still stands on the bank of the Ganjiang River, which runs through the city center, and it continues to be a treasured architectural and historic landmark. The city is celebrated for more recent historic events, as well. On 1, 1927, veteran revolutionaries Zhou Enlai, Zhu De and others organized and launched the August First Uprising in Nanchang, marking the beginning of the armed revolution of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the birth of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA). But while Nanchang’s residents still feel tremendous pride over the role their ancestors played in China’s history, today’s generation is even prouder of what has been achieved in recent memory.
