Wassup lovely people of the world~
So today marks the first day of IS lecture on Chinese culture!!!
The lecture bascially concentrates on the history and cultures in wuhan!
Our lecturer is a local and her name Miss Caroline!
She talked about the history, people and Wuhan!
I'll share some of the knowledge i brought back with you!
Wuhan is a provincial capital and it is called The province of a thousand lakes as it is a fishery industry!
Not only that , Wuhan also has a lot of steel and iron industry.
It also has a population of 60,700,000 living in Wuhan itself!
Can you believe it?
That many people living in this place yet it doesn't seem crowded at all.
This is such a vast difference when you compare it to Singapore population where it about 5million.
So you know where to go when Singapore really does reach 6.9million.
I'm just kidding..
Wuhan is also the birthplace of Chinese modern technology.
one of the people involved is Zhang Zhidong who is the founder of the first hanyang steel works.
There is one segment in the lecture that really caught my attention.
It's the Hubei celebrities.
When i say celebrities, its not those singers who are stars or anything.
It famous people in ancient times!
So maybe for celebrities in Singapore, it includes Sang Nila Utama and Sir Stamford Raffles!
The first celebrity is Qu yuan.
He is a great patriotic poet and.
He wrote 25 poems!
Some of the popular one are Sorrow after departure and The 9 songs.
Next is Zhuge Liang.
he is a a politician and strategist during the 3 kingdom period.
He contributed to the formation of Trangular balance of the power of the 3 kingdoms and lived as a hermit.
She is one of the 4 beauties in Chinese history.
but more importantly, she enhanced unity between the Han and Xiangnu people!
1)Wang Zhaojun(above)
2)Diao Chan
3)Yang Yuhuan
4)Xi Shi
After that we mostly talked about food.
Well it all made us extremely hungry because the lecture stretched up to about 3 hours.
But hey! it was fun!
So until then~
再见你们！！！！！
