Because there was a mountain called “Wan Mountain” and an ancient nation named “Wan” in Spring and Autumn period in Anhui (722 BC–481 BC), “Anhui” is also called “Wan” for short. The Anhui region was one of the earliest areas in the Yangtze basin to be settled by Sinitic peoples. Many of the current linguistic and cultural traits of the region were shaped during the Nan (Southern) Song period (1127–1279), particularly the characteristic conservatism of language and art forms. A number of separate regional subcultures continue to exist, including the Huizhou culture from the region around Shexian, renowned for its commercial and clan traditions. https://www.learnchinesehistory.com/anhui-province/ https://www.britannica.com/place/Anhui/Cultural-life Hui-style Architecture Hui(zhou)-style architecture is one of the traditional Chinese architecture styles, which prevailed mostly in the historical Huizhou prefecture of Anhui, China as a critical element of Huizhou culture. The architecture uses bricks, woods and stone as raw materials, timber frames as significant structures. The bearing structure is a wooden beam, and parapet walls are made of bricks, rocks, and soils. The central room is decorated with painted beams, sculpted roof, and carved eaves with skylights. The technical features and style of Hui-style architecture majorly occur in residential houses, ancestral temples, joss houses, archways, memorial gates, and gardens. The architecture reflects mountainous features of the area and a geomantic omen of traditional Chinese religions. http://www.cits.net/china-travel-guide/hui- style-architecture-representative-of-ancient- chinese-buildings.html MountHefei Huangshan Attractions Huangshan is a mountain range in southern Anhui province in eastern China. As “the loveliest mountain of China”, lies in the south of Anhui province in eastern China. It was called Yishan Mountain in the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC), and got its current name in 747 during the Tang Dynasty (618-907). Huangshan Mountain is renowned for its magnificent natural scenery, which includes massive granitic boulders and ancient pine trees that are often further enhanced by cloud and mist effects. This dramatic landscape includes formations of natural stone pillars, grotesquely-shaped rocks, waterfalls, caves, lakes and hot springs, formed by its complex geological history. Over the past 40 years, Huangshan tourism has achieved a historic leap from scratch, becoming a benchmark city for China's tourism, a world-class tourist destination, and a wonderful and vivid epitome of China's reform and opening up. Today, Huangshan City receives nearly 3 million overseas tourists every year. https://www.chinahighlights.com/huangshan/ http://en.chinaculture.org/2017-07/19/content_1039994.htm https://www.airpano.com/360photo/China-Huangshan/ Hefei Attractions Hefei is the capital and largest city of the Chinese province of Anhui.

    Association Between Social Capital and Depression Among Older People: Evidence from Anhui Province, China

    Bai et al. BMC Public Health (2020) 20:1560 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-020-09657-7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Association between social capital and depression among older people: evidence from Anhui Province, China Zhongliang Bai1,2,3, Zhiwei Xu3,4, Xiaoru Xu2, Xia Qin2, Wenbiao Hu3* and Zhi Hu1,2* Abstract Background: To examine the relationship between social capital and depression among community-dwelling older adults in Anhui Province, China. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among older people selected from three cities of Anhui Province, China using a multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method. Data were collected through questionnaire interviews and information on demographic characteristics, social capital, and depression was collected. The generalized linear model and classification and regression tree model were employed to assess the association between social capital and depression. Results: Totally, 1810 older people aged ≥60 years were included in the final analysis. Overall, all of the social capital dimensions were positively associated with depression: social participation (coefficient: 0.35, 95% CI: 0.22– 0.48), social support (coefficient:0.18, 95% CI:0.07–0.28), social connection (coefficient: 0.76, 95% CI:0.53–1.00), trust (coefficient:0.62, 95% CI:0.33–0.92), cohesion (coefficient:0.31, 95% CI:0.17–0.44) and reciprocity (coefficient:0.30, 95% CI:0.11–0.48), which suggested that older people with higher social capital had a smaller chance to develop depression. A complex joint effect of certain social capital dimensions on depression was also observed. The association with depression and the combinative effect of social capital varied among older adults across the cities.

    Analysis of Multiple Cyanobacteria in Chaohu Lake Xuan Hu

    International Symposium on Social Science (ISSS 2015) Analysis of Multiple Cyanobacteria in Chaohu Lake Xuan Hu School of Electrical Engineering, North China Electric Power University, Baoding 071003, China [email protected] Keywords: Chaohu Lake; algae; Cyanobacteria bloom; Eutrophication. Abstract. Cyanobacteria are the most simple and most primitive algae, which bloom in some serious eutrophicative lake. When they form a layer of blue-green bubbles which smell, they are called water blooms. The most typical lakes in China where the cyanobacterial blooms break out are Taihu Lake and Chao Lake. Of the "three rivers and three lakes" which are famous for water pollution, the Chaohu Lake area is the key area for water pollution control. This paper collects relevant data of the amount of algae and the area of water bloom in Chaohu Lake, summarizes the research on the outbreak of algae bloom in the lake, and puts forward feasible suggestions for dealing with cyanobacterial bloom in the lake. 1. Introduction Chaohu is located in the southeast of Anhui Province, is one of China's five major freshwater. The area of the lake is 752km2, the annual rainfall is 1100mm. Chaohu Lake Basin belongs to the subtropical and warm temperate transition of the subtropical monsoon climate zone, climate mild and humid, moderate rainfall, humidity, monsoon climate significantly. Chaohu Lake is known as "Yumizhixiang" reputation, rich in grain, oil, cotton, hemp, vegetables and fruit crops, depending on the lake and textile, food and other pillar industries. In twentieth Century 50 's, Chaohu water quality is fine, the mineralization degree is extremely low, the acid base is moderate, the aquatic plants flourish, the biodiversity is rich.

Page 1/20 Abstract Thirteen Zhou Dynasty bronze vessels and two slags from Zongyang County along the north bank of the Yangtze River in Anhui were analyzed by LA-MC-ICP-MS and EDXRF. The results of the lead isotope analysis showed that there were two kinds of lead materials in the Zongyang bronzes. Class which could have originated from the Wannan region were mainly used in the Western Zhou and the following Spring and Autumn periods; while Class , possibly from the local mines in Zongyang County, were mainly present in the Warring States period. Such a shift in the ore material sources is also revealed by the analysis of the trace elements of the Zongyang bronzes. With reference to relevant historical documents, it can be inferred that the transformation of the bronze material sources could be related to the changes of the political situation during the Zhou Dynasty.

    Conservation in China Issue, Spring 2016

    SPRING 2016 CONSERVATION IN CHINA A Note from the Director For over twenty-five years, it has been the Getty Conservation Institute’s great privilege to work with colleagues in China engaged in the conservation of cultural heritage. During this quarter century and more of professional engagement, China has undergone tremendous changes in its social, economic, and cultural life—changes that have included significant advance- ments in the conservation field. In this period of transformation, many Chinese cultural heritage institutions and organizations have striven to establish clear priorities and to engage in significant projects designed to further conservation and management of their nation’s extraordinary cultural resources. We at the GCI have admiration and respect for both the progress and the vision represented in these efforts and are grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the preservation of cultural heritage in China. The contents of this edition of Conservation Perspectives are a reflection of our activities in China and of the evolution of policies and methods in the work of Chinese conservation professionals and organizations. The feature article offers Photo: Anna Flavin, GCI a concise view of GCI involvement in several long-term conservation projects in China. Authored by Neville Agnew, Martha Demas, and Lorinda Wong— members of the Institute’s China team—the article describes Institute work at sites across the country, including the Imperial Mountain Resort at Chengde, the Yungang Grottoes, and, most extensively, the Mogao Grottoes. Integrated with much of this work has been our participation in the development of the China Principles, a set of national guide- lines for cultural heritage conservation and management that respect and reflect Chinese traditions and approaches to conservation.
