  • Week 5 Report (July 2 – July 8) Prepared By: Zachary Parra
    US-China Collaboration on Landslide Research and Student Training Week 5 Report (July 2 – July 8) Prepared By: Zachary Parra Week 5 marked the conclusion of the two-week Chinese Language and Culture class at China University of Geosciences in Wuhan. It also marks the beginning of the students’ time in Zigui. July 2 Today, under the guidance of several China University of Geosciences (CUG) volunteers, University of Houston students visited several well-known destinations throughout Wuhan. In the morning, students visited the Yellow Crane Tower located on the eastern bank of the Yangtze River. The Yellow Crane Tower has existed in several forms since AD 223. Its current state, rebuilt in 1981, offers stunning views of Wuhan in all directions. For lunch, the group traveled to Hubuxiang, a famous walking food street in the city. Upon finishing lunch at Hubuxiang, the group proceeded to take a local ferry across the Yangtze River in order to get to Hankou. Hankou is home to the longest walking-commercial street in all of China, Jianghan Road. Here, students were able to explore the wide variety of Chinese and international commercial business and break for dinner. Lastly, the students returned back to the CUG campus via subway. Overall, the day was full of scenic sites and memories. The only regret is that the day-lasting overcast prevented ideal photograph conditions!

There are 800,000-year-old relics of the "Man of the Apes" in Yunxian County; the "Chengbeixi Culture", "Daxi Culture", "Qujialing Culture" and "Shijiahe Culture" show the world the long and splendid prehistoric civilization in Hubei Province; especially the "Shijiahe Culture" from 4600 to 4000 years ago, whose relics prove that the techniques of jade control, bronze smelting, pottery sculpture and colored pottery at that time were available.
