From its great outdoors to its grand cities, the rich layers of history and cultural diversity in this enormous country make for an extraordinary experience. The scale of China’s grand sights is overwhelming and it is important to enjoy its age-old traditions: perhaps tai chi in a bird garden, exploring the mighty metropolis of Hong Kong, or a game of mahjong at afternoon tea. China of course offers arguably the world’s greatest cuisine. Beijing Inextricably linked to its glorious and notorious past, yet hurtling towards a power charged future, Beijing is one of history’s great cities. It is as complex as it is compelling. Few places on earth can match the extraordinary panorama on display with six UNESCO World Heritage sites in the city alone. Nanjing Many visitors only pass through Nanjing but the capital of Jiangsu lying on the lower stretches of the Yangzi River boasts a rich, impressive and historical heritage. Echoing the city’s brief former glory as the nation’s capital during its Ming- dynasty a city wall still encloses most of the city. This famous university town has wide tree line boulevards, chic cafes and excellent museums. Nanjing may sprawl today but the atmosphere is both cultural and relaxed. Shanghai Shanghai: few cities evoke so much history, excess, glamour, mystique and exotic promise in name alone. A short time ago Shanghai was a bustling port town that has now evolved to become the modern face of China. It’s the cuisine, the people, European Streets, art deco buildings, narrow alleys, modern architecture, the arts, entertainment and shopping that has blended to create one of the greatest cities in the world. Hong Kong A city of contrasts – a striking fusion of East and West, old and new. Modern day cosmopolitan living co-exists in harmony with local lifestyles and timeless traditions, where gleaming modern skyscrapers tower over rustic street markets, ancient temples and icons of the city’s colonial past. A city with a pulse – Hong Kong never sleeps.

In this new era of confident self-determination the atmosphere is one of optimism. Fortunately Vietnam's traditional charms have not yet been eclipsed. Although motorbikes continue to replace bicycles at an alarming rate, the former Communist stronghold is embracing progress and the country offers an astonishing variety of scenery. Whether your fascination is wartime relics, rice paddies, beaches, the Mekong Delta, history, foodie trails, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, traditional villages or nature Vietnam is re-inventing itself constantly and is well worth the visit. Hanoi Showcasing sweeping boulevards, tree-fringed lakes and ancient pagodas, Hanoi is Vietnam’s most atmospheric capital. It's an energetic city on the move, and Hanoi’s ambitious citizens are determined to make up for lost time. As motorbikes and pedestrians ebb and flow through the Old Quarter’s centuries-old commercial chaos, hawkers in conical hats still ply their wares while other locals breakfast on noodles or sip drip-coffee. At dawn on the shores of Hoan Kiem Lake, synchronised tai chi sessions take place beside goateed grandfathers contemplating their next chess moves. In Lenin Park, choreographed military drills have been replaced by chaotic skateboarders; while Hanoi’s bright young things celebrate in cosmopolitan restaurants and bars. Hanoi is a compelling blend of Parisian grace and Asian pace.

  • The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
    The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa­ tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

  • Evaluation and Screening of Co-Culture Farming Models in Rice Field Based on Food Productivity

However, the small-scale farming practice needs to be adjusted for modern agricultural production. Screening of rice field co-culture farming models is important in deciding the suitable model for industry-wide promotion. In this study, we aim to find the optimal rice field co-culture farming models for large-scale application, based on the notion of food productivity. We used experimental data from the Jiangsu Province of China and applied food-equivalent unit and arable-land-equivalent unit methods to examine applicable protocols for large-scale promotion of rice field co-culture farming models. Results indicate that the rice-loach and rice-catfish models achieve the highest food productivity; the rice-duck model increases the rice yield, while the rice-turtle and rice-crayfish models generate extra economic profits.
