China Tourism Question?

Question by Shawn H: China Tourism Question?
Are these sensitive natural/environmental areas:

Wulingvuan Rocks, China
Huangshan Mountains
Guilin
Yangtze River

I know there natural but are they sensitive? If not what are sensitive nautral/environmental areas in china?

Thanks

Best answer:

Answer by liyuwc12321
I think Wulingyuan is one, and jiuzhaigou, too.
huangshan moutains and guilin have been tourist sites for long time, no matter they were sensitive or not, they arent anymore.
hundreds of million ppl live by the riverside of Yangtze river, I dont think it is sensitive.

I think “sensitive” means being apt to change, I hope I understand the word correctly.

Q&A: China pollution-Dams and Stakeholders?

Question by b: China pollution-Dams and Stakeholders?
Hi! I’m doing a research project on China and it’s water pollution. I have a couple questions:

1) Will the Three Gorges Dam help with the water pollution in the Yangtze River? Can dams help with pollution in general?

2) What would three main stakeholders be for the water pollution in China? For sure I know the government is one.

Thanks!

Best answer:

Answer by betyoucantfindme
1) I have not heard of dams solving the problem of water pollution. If anything, it might make pollution in the river upstream of the dam worse, since some pollutants might be stopped and collected at the dam.

2) Besides the government, it would be the people living in the area who are dependent on that water for living, drinking, cooking, and farming. Maybe the third one is local businesses.

Drought in China Incurs more than RMB 600 mln in Losses?

Question by onlyonce: Drought in China Incurs more than RMB 600 mln in Losses?
(China Knowledge, Aug 17, 2006) – A serious drought has created direct economic losses of over RMB 400 million and RMB 246 million in Sichuan and Chongqing respectively, according to a Xinhua report on Saturday.
Xinhua also reported that the drought, which is the worst in 50 years, has affected more than 1.3 million hectares of farming land. Many farmers in Sichuan and Chongqing have lost their entire corps, which have withered from the lack of water and the intense heat.
The Yangtze River in Chongqing was also hit by the drought, with its water level dipping by a 20-year low of 4.12 m in July.
More than 10 million people in Sichuan and Chongqing face a shortage of drinking water. Sichuan plans to create artificial rain for its 12 cities, while Chongqing is tapping ground water and improving water conservation facilities.

Does anyone actually like China?

Question by N S: Does anyone actually like China?
To begin with, let’s just be clear that this is an attack on China, not the Chinese.
Let’s face it, to the West and to most other nations, China represents an enormous threat. It continues to expand militarily, build nuclear weapons, consume resources at an incredible rate and its economy increases exponentially, as does its population. It consumes and pollutes with no regard for the rest of the world or the environment, and represents an authoritarian bulwark of Communism to many nations. The Yangtze river dolphin just went extinct due to a non-existent concern to preserve any form of wildlife or biosphere, and instead a focus on industry and expansion- the Chinese contribute the most to Global Warming, yet they are doing the least to stop it. It also slowly but surely destroy its fantastic culture and history through Communist principles- the future China will be bland. And if World War 3 breaks out, it’s going to be us versus China- this is not a simplistic assumption- it’s widely accepted. It displays expansionist and imperialistic behaviour such as with the Tibet situation, a deplorable attitude towards human rights, and it’s predicted that there will be a small war against India in the next few years involving Himalayan borders. I think it’s pretty clear who the world will support then.

If you disagree with the above statement, I’d love to know the other side of the argument. I know it might be controversial, but that’s my opinion on China at the moment. What do you think?

Actually, many Chinese don’t really like China- it’s oppressive and authoritarian. Remember the Tianamen Square massacre? Think about the way it’s dealing with the Uighurs. Most Chinese people are indifferent towards it- it provides jobs because of big building projects, but it is not a free society.

I am going with a large group to China with Tibet being part of the trip….?

Question by blnbyrose: I am going with a large group to China with Tibet being part of the trip….?
and then going on a trip up the Yangtze river for a few days. Our group will be about 20 people. We will spend the last 4 days in Beijing. I have been to Beijing once but would like to know if anyone has any recomendations on what to do there? We will be staying within walking distance of Tieneman Square and the Forbiden City. We will see that stuff. Any ideas on cool stuff to take people to when we are there? For instance any restaurants or attractions that you really liked? We will go to the great wall also just looking for a unique experience of something that maybe is not done by your average tourist. We will be on our own so anything is possible. Thank you.

Answer by REnate
Buy yourselves a good interpreter there are lots of local who will do this for a small sum. Your travel agent may be able to hook you up with an interpreter. Go to the Forbidden City. Your interpreter will tell you other places to see and things to do also restaurant to visit.

Answer by mazariamonti
no, china is one of the world’s emerging super powers, japan was completely crushed to the ground in ww2, we took away all of their military might, to rebuild everything, and just try to invade china for no apparent reason, there is no possible way they could pull it off, they just aren’t powerful enough.
