More times to Guangzhou, and unconsciously, and gradually even some obsessive love in this colorful city, even though I am not a sentimental person.
Arrived in Guangzhou, comes at noon. The spring inside the city, the gloomy, as if waiting for rain falling. No matter how kind of days, first went to enjoy a return to "Eat in Guangzhou" in style. Back to the room break my heart some inexplicable ups and downs, I know, is the warmth of the city to cast her magic in me.
As a result, leaning high-rise window to see rain city, read a poem, like, appreciate the sentiment in Guangzhou.
City and still so beautiful, filled with times past, flying the germination of style. The streets, pedestrians, bicycles, motorcycles, cars do not mix with the noisy scene, and only the streets with cars fast Mercedes-Benz, giving a light and spacious and smooth feel. City high, but also Liang, and high-rise buildings that trendy bright decoration, people feel elegant. There are so many trees, rich green, reveal a life.
The city brimming with a rich wealth of flavor. This piece of land, I wonder how many people have been and continue to make unremitting efforts with, in their rich at the same time, but also created an asset-based community. Guangzhou, the most alluring, as if this is not the material things, but the city is very tenderness, surging with romance, freedom and fashion.
Understanding of Guangzhou will take time, also need to sentiment, in the ordinary to experience bit by bit. I remember the first time I came was 15 years ago, when I wonder what will happen here to exclude me this northerner. Such as dealing with the locals, only to find they have a natural affinity nature of Jingru neighboring villages of folks, both sharing the benefits of Ye Hao, both tolerance and tolerance, I suspect, this is heart of the South who try to figure out cities? That warm and intimate, candid and thoughtful temperament friendly, people feel familiar. As to know more, and also found in Guangzhou in prosperity, it is also pursuing a very valuable things: lifestyle and self-development.
Guangzhou is human taste, and very casual, not so many rules, which make people feel relaxed from the north. Life business casual, stress naturally, it seems that human nature in Guangzhou. Guangzhou people not only like to eat, who likes to chat. Say morning tea bar, no matter what the business can go up into the table talk, and talk how long will do it than in the office to talk about things to be more comfortable. By night, but also to the midnight snack, until midnight, the lights sometime, enjoy the night atmosphere, to find a color of life. However, for the Guangzhou people dare eat anything, even a cat with a mouse recipes all revenue is indeed not to be commended.
Guangzhou is the car world. Though not aware of car ownership in Guangzhou, but that steady stream of cars, and that stirring of the noise, make the city less showtime quiet. A modern city there are so many cars, walking convenient way of life has changed, but the high-decibel noise but does not quite resemble civilization and progress.
A lot of people like to Guangzhou and Beijing, Shanghai and the ratio seems to draw a who insisted to be superior, it does not make sense. However, any metropolis, and its composition must be diverse and can not be simple to distinguish between good and bad. Should be on the hardware, the city already and the world, comparable to any city in the. Can look at a city is good, in addition to evaluation of the hardware is complete, the for the residents, the most important thing is the suitability of their own urban culture.
The historical background of the formation of a different city, left behind the invisible things are different. Who chose Beijing can be said to the emperor, far away in the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty did not say that the past It is also the nephew of the hands of snatching from the imperial power of the Yongle Emperor Zhu Di, so Beijing where emperors past, and even led the Qing Dorgon soldier hit off, the Shunzhi also put the Kyoto election in Beijing. Indeed, if it is not that the emperor, Zhu rebellion, Beijing Forbidden City would not have so far probably still a sort of a small Tucheng, Kyoto brilliant scene did not know where. Who chose Shanghai, those who made money from the land, the national capitalists also invest in the business sector do? Not entirely, it is important that the eighteenth-century imperial powers, are those ships at anchor in the Wusong extraoral to squeeze money from the Chinese, the foreigners, and they let the Qing government to lose money over, to want to deprive the, and then come up with a concession sure way for a mild way to plunder the national wealth. Without these foreign adults "support," Shanghai will not have this grounding. Who chose that in Guangzhou, the Pearl River Delta chose to do? Can be said that China's national conditions. From that of opium in Humen foreigners dare to burn the Lin Tse-hsu, to that future generations of Sun Yat-sen launched the democratic revolution of the tenant, until Deng Xiaoping, Hong Kong, in Shenzhen into the distance, is that they represent their nation have chosen here, to explore the establishment of that science nation of democracy and popular new society, to achieve the Chinese nation's rejuvenation.
Far fewer impact of the emperor, there is no concession to the sentiments of those, plus adjacent to Hong Kong, Macau, Guangzhou and even the surrounding region to create an open culture, has become a city full of life mood. Even the radio and television programs, selling newspapers, people wore, and even architectural styles, but also more the flavor of life. Appreciate life in Guangzhou is indeed another kind of feeling in their hearts.
Really want to thank the Guangzhou, let me know how to have a good future life. In the past, our future vision is very simple, how much money is to buy something, what to wear, eat, what rice. Now it seems entirely not the case. Good or bad is by no means in the traditional sense of life lived on the amount of material, but rather spiritual and cultural realm, is a way of life and content to enhance and change. Guangzhou chose fashion and chose life and flaunt the beauty of individuality. Although the lifestyle tired, need to pay a lot, but it is progress of spiritual sustenance.
Guangzhou people like to buy a house, or at least like a foreign lady, as there is a warm home; Guangzhou people like Tim car, take the initiative to create a modern way of life; Guangzhou people like to Fashion beauty and fashion trends of the elegant tastes; Guangzhou people like to morning tea midnight snack and do Enjoy elegant food culture; Guangzhou people like to do what they wanted to do, whether for business or academic, play into their own world. In the cultural differences between North and South, I ask myself: When earned money, is not it also have on deposit with the bank, still living and that the traditional career from here? When we go shopping, is not it also just calculating how much in kind to the neglect of spiritual needs? When to meet new friends, is not it also look at other people as high or low, and then determine the tone with the master, or I do? As a thing, is not necessary to follow some unwritten rules, pay attention to the so-called decent then? The implementation of the "nine to five" In the future, is not even sunset, continuing to Lanjue sleep an hour before work then?
Life is life, not to say anything good in Guangzhou, said that Guangzhou people do not refer to all, but rather a trend. Guangzhou this fashion, in my eyes, such as the elegant fashion of girls, like a "Lotus Pond in Moonlight"-like prose and like a song called the "Tonight you will not come."
