CHENGDU OVERVIEW
     Chengdu, located in Southwest China, is the capital of Sichuan province. It is also one of the most important economic, transportation, and communication hubs in Western China.

     More than four thousand years ago, the pre-historic culture of Jinsha established itself in this region. The fertile Chengdu Plain, on which Chengdu is located, is called Tianfuzhiguo in Chinese, which literally means "the Country of Heaven", or more often seen translated as "the Land of Abundance".
Ranking third in the Cities of Best International Image in China and officially recognized by the UN Habitat Environmental Award, Chengdu enjoys nice weather and the city is also widely known as “The City Impossible to Leave After Coming”. Five UN World Heritage sites, second only to Beijing, and numerous gorgeous scenic areas including The Giant Panda Breeding Base have solidified Chengdu’s reputation as an ultimate tourist destination. Chengdu has inherited the cultural legacies passed down from ancient times; simultaneously, it has absorbed and created its own unique modern culture. As an oriental metropolis, Chengdu is a place mixed with traditional culture and modern civilization: art galleries, varying from Sichuan Opera and embroidery to contemporary paintings and concerts; cuisine highlights, famous for its Sichuan Cuisine, Hot Pot and snacks; shopping districts, stocked with products from original Chinese handicrafts to the latest Louis Vuitton handbag or Ferrari sports car.

     Chengdu is in the North China Dialect Area, thus making it a preferable place for Mandarin study.
