Fujian Tourism © Lonely Planet Publications 331 Fújiàn 福建 Directly facing the island of Taiwan across the Taiwan Strait, the southern province of Fújiàn – famed for its fiendish tangle of tricky dialects – is a lushly mountainous, coastal region of China. Well watered and lashed by epic summer typhoons that sweep along the fertile coastline, the province is also renowned for an outward-looking mentality that has prompted centuries of migration to Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines and Taiwan, and, FÚJIÀN in more recent years, a more covert movement to Europe and the US. One of China’s most prosperous provinces, Fújiàn’s coastal ports have long traded far and wide, but farmland is scarce and the mountainous interior remained inaccessible until as late as the 1960s, when the communists finally drove roads through the dense jungle. A popular route between Guǎngdōng, Zhèjiāng and Shànghǎi, Fújiàn offers one of the most diverse travel experiences in China. Rising like medieval forts, the astonishing Hakka tǔlóu (roundhouses) of Yǒngdìng County in Fújiàn’s southwest present a totally unique dimension to the China experience. One of China’s most attractive harbour cities and a useful first port of call, Xiàmén is a mandatory highlight along the coast. The hypnotically slow tempo, gorgeous colonial architecture, clean air and meandering, hilly lanes of offshore Gǔlàng Yǔ make the island an ideal place to unwind. The enclave is only a stone’s throw from the Taiwan-claimed island of Jīnmén (Kinmen), once the site of ferocious battles between mainland communists and the Nationalist Party. The province’s rugged mountainous dimension can be explored at Wǔyí Shān in the northwest, where excellent hiking opportunities await.

  • Guanyin Goddess of The
    143 CHAPTERS GUANYIN, GODDESS OF THE SEA While some early forms ofSongzi Guanyin appear to have originated with a white-robed female sitting on an island and surrounded by water, the form now known as Nanhai (South seas) Guanyin is generally considered to have become popular between the twelfth and sixteenth centuries with the association ofPutuo Island as the island home of Guanyin. Paintings ofNanhai Guanyin frequently depict her as a sea goddess, riding on waves or on a fish. This form is believed to bring protection to anyone who travels on the South China Sea. Yet, as seen in the previous chapter Nanhai Guanyin appears to have developed from a water-moon form which did not symbolize protection from the sea. So where did the notion of a goddess of the sea originate? Is there any iconographical evidence to indicate that Guanyin was worshipped in this form before N anhai Guanyin came into existence? Belief in Guanyin's efficacy as a saviour from the sea goes back to the beginning of the cult and the protection from the Perils as descnbed in the Lotus Siitra. There was not, however, in the early stages of the cult, any particular image associated with this function. Various forms with a maritime theme have appeared over time, Aoyu (Big fish) Guanyin, depicts Guanyin standing, or riding, on a large fish, Yulan (Fishbasket) Guanyin, holds a basket offish in her hand and a form known as Guanyin Crossing the Sea, rides on a small boat amongst the ocean waves. Nanhai Guanyin appears to have absorbed elements from each of these forms.

    PROJECTS FOR : ANHAI a critical hypothesis for preservation and transformation Manuela Raitano Luca Reale PROJECTS «Projects For:» is a book series dedicated to architectural design in international FOR : contexts. Looking at our own way of practicing architecture through the lens of “difference” can help magnify its identity, pointing out its most relevant characters and providing an appropriate ground for critical thinking. Creating designs – or reflecting on projects – conceived for “elsewhere” can, in our opinion, become a powerful tool to understand how to make architecture. The series wants to provide a space dedicated to this critical activity, where the pretext of a specific lo- cation around the globe can serve as the center of gravity for design-oriented considerations.

Atmospheric PM10 samples were collected at ten particulate matter (PM) sampling sites at Xiamen Bay, including five sites at the Kinmen Islands and five sites in urban Xiamen, at both daytime and nighttime during the regular and intensive sampling periods. Regular sampling was conducted to collect PM10 with high-volume samplers three times a month from April 2009 to April 2010, while intensive sampling was conducted to collect PM2.5 and PM2.5–10 with dichotomous samplers in the spring and winter of 2009 and 2010. This study further selected ten major emission sources (e.g., stone processing, power plants, soil dusts, and biomass burning) at Xiamen Bay to collect fugitive particulate samples which were then resuspended in a self-designed resuspension chamber to collect PM2.5 and PM2.5–10 with two separate dichotomous samplers for further chemical analysis.

Atmospheric particles (PM10) were collected at three offshore islands (i.e., Kinmen islands, Matsu islands, and Penghu Islands) and two coastal regions (i.e., Xiamen and Fuzhou) in the years of 2008–2012. Field sampling results indicated that the average PM10 concentrations at the Kinmen islands were generally higher than other sampling sites, suggesting that a superimposition phenomenon was regularly observed during the air pollution episodes at Kinmen Islands and Xiamen region. PM10 samples were analyzed for their chemical composition, including water-soluble ions, metallic 2– elements, and carbonaceous content. The most abundant water-soluble ionic species of PM10 were recognized as SO4 , – + NO3 , and NH4 , indicating that PM10 was mainly composed of secondary inorganic aerosols. Although natural crustal elements dominated the metallic content of PM10, the most abundant anthropogenic metals of PM10 were Zn and Pb.

  • Paper, I Will Discuss on the Ceramic Trade Network and the Galleon Trade, Based on the Circulation Situation of the Hizen Porcelain Which Began Overseas Export
    CERAMIC TRADE NETWORK AROUND TAIWAN STRAITS AND THE GALLEON TRADE Nogami Takenori PREFACE In 1571, Spain founded Manila City for the rule of the Philippines and the Asian trade. Ferdinando Magellan crossed the Pacific Ocean half a century before that time. After the city of Manila had been built, the Manila Galleon trade route was soon established. It functioned as a long-distance and large-scale sea trade route connecting the Asian world with the American Continent until the early 19th century. Many Asian goods such as silks and spices were exported by the Spanish galleons. And some of the goods were shipped to Europe. On the other hand, many New World goods, including Mexican silver, crossed the Pacific Ocean and were brought to the Asian world. The cargoes sent to Acapulco from Manila included East Asian porcelain as well. Many Oriental porcelains were transported from Manila to the American Continent. Though most of them were Chinese porcelains, they included Japanese porcelains(Hizen porcelains). And the merchant who played the large role in overseas export of Hizen porcelains was Zheng Chenggong (Koxinga) group. And they made the cities around Taiwan straits the main territories. In this paper, I will discuss on the ceramic trade network and the galleon trade, based on the circulation situation of the Hizen porcelain which began overseas export. THE ORIGINS OF HIZEN WARE Hizen Province, which existed up to the 1860s and the Meiji Restoration, is currently part of Saga and Nagasaki Prefectures. It is located in the northwest of Kyushu Island, Japan. The production of Hizen ware started in the late 16th century and is still an important industry in this region now.
