撇开政治与商机，中国最吸引我的地方，莫过于它的历史和文化风采。这次出差让我有机会可以一览拥有3100年历史的西安，也让我有机会来到黄飞鸿与李小龙的出生地，佛山，也就是我现在的所在地。当你到处走走到处逛逛，你会发现每一座山，每一条河，每一个人，事，物，都有它独特的风格，动人的景象，与美丽的传说。从中，我得到了不少启发，感触良多。看到这里的员工每个月就只赚那么一点钱，离乡背景来到较大的省会/县区工作，住在拥挤的员工宿舍，吃着食堂提供的饭菜。他们连西餐都没吃过，应为太贵了，吃不起。他们的一生，可能就这么平淡艰苦的度过，根本没机会接触外面的世界。我们是不是应该感恩，我们生长在一个都市繁华的国家，一个没有灾难，没有贫穷的地方？其实我们拥有很多很多，但却从来不曾去想过，还把它当成是与生俱来，理所当然的。
人，能活得开心，不是因为得到的多，而是计较的少。。。
me @ the bell tower (钟楼）~~ u can see e big bell right at the top of the tower.
this is the drum tower (鼓楼）~~ spot e difference? haha... there's a drum at the first level & its roof does not hav a bell! there's an old saying, 晨钟暮鼓 (bell in e day & drum at nite). this practise is still being carried out here today.
this is my lunch! pork chop in sizzling hot plate wif pasta, tght wif red wine, salad, bread & soup! whole set oni S$6.50! how i wish i can earn sgd & spend rmb! then i'll be rich! haha...
ok, nx stop fo shan, flying back to guangzhou tmr morning... bye Xi an~~ i've enjoyed my stay here throughly by learning & seeing so much of e china history. it's definitely a memorable experince.
Xi an, the eternal city, records the great changes of the Chinese nation just like a living history book. During Xi an's 3,100 years of development, 13 dynasties such as Western Zhou (11th century BC - 771 BC), Qin (221 BC - 206 BC), Western Han (206 BC - 24 AD) and Tang (618 - 907) placed their capitals here. So far, Xi an enjoys equal fame with Athens, Cairo, and Rome as one of the four major ancient civilization capitals.
Guess who I saw there?
It's MM lee kuan yew! He actually visited this place when he was still the prime minister then.
He even 提了一行字！this was written by him…If u dun hav any idea of 兵马俑 & y am I making such a big hoo ha out of it, let me bring u through a little history of the 秦 dynasty. When 秦始皇 died, he wanna bring along with him everything in the world, in other words, he wan to rebuild his whole empire in the netherworld. Thus, he commenced his ppl to start making replicates of everything to be buried tght wif him when he died. altght, 600 pits were dug & his soldiers (兵马俑) reside in 4 of them.
tricia & me @ the 1st pit~~This is the 1st pit discovered & it’s oso the biggest among the 4. Each 兵马俑 is delicately crafted from palm prints to hair strands. Even the floors are pathed wif gapless tiles. Wif e technology durin dat era, it’s basically impossible to accomplish. All of them has unique faces and not one is similar to the other. How did the 木匠 actually come up wif so many diff faces? We believed dat they used each other’s face as models & modified from there. When the兵马俑 are discovered, most of them are actually damaged & these 兵马俑 dat we see hav alr been 修补 based on the analysis & matching of the fallen pieces. I’m sure many of us might be wondering y are some of them left w/o any heads. There’s a perfectly logical reason behind it. This is bcos their faces are alr damaged beyond repair & our craftsmen r preserving the original statue by not inventing an imaginary one.
In order to protect the兵马俑, visitors are oni allowed in the gallery & not underground. Oni countries representatives like the presidents or prime ministers hav special privileges to access the underground. One interesting fact is japen’s prime minister actually visited this place, however he did not receive the special access even thou he has the status as he did not earn the respect (ps. japan still refused to apologise to china).
this is the 2nd pit~~
All e 兵马俑 are actually coloured even thou wat we saw are oni the colourless clay. This is bcos when e 兵马俑 are exposed to air & sunlight, the colours on them will fade immediately. Thus we can see dat the 2nd pit thou dug, the兵马俑 are still not exposed yet. Archeologists are alr working wif experts in germany (it’s leading the world in their research work on colours) to ensure that they’ll be able to preserve the colours on the 兵马俑 b4 they’ll proceed to exhibit more statues. Estimated time frame is 5 to 8 yrs.
In 3rd pit resides all the 将军 & 元帅. As compared to the 1st pit where all the frontline soldiers are standing in str lines in rows ready for battle, the将军 stand facing each other.
