Chapters discuss the development of the cave temples, the iconography of the wall paintings, and the extraordinary story of the rare manuscripts, including the oldest printed book in existence, a ninth-century copy of the Diamond Sutra. The book also describes the long-term collaboration between the Getty Conservation Institute and Chinese authorities in conservation projects at Mogao as well as the caves and the museum that can be visited today.

The first Tantric themes appear at the time of the occupation of Dunhuang by the Tibetans, from 790 to 851. Following the conquest of Gansu by the Tanguts, these themes multiplied, encouraged by the proliferation of lama sects under the Western Xia (1036-1227). With this same invasion in 1036 correspond the 45,000 manuscripts discovered in 1900 by the Taoist monk Wang Yuan-lu (Wang Guolu) in a cave where they had been hidden at the approach of the Ta nguts. Although dispersed, this fabulous collection is one of the essential sources of Asian history.

The Dianchi Lake Scenic Area is located in the southwest part of Kunming City

The mountains rise steeply from the eastern and western shores, but to the north is an extensive alluvial plain, which has been intensively irrigated since the Yuan (Mongol) dynasty (1279–1368) and the early part of the Ming dynasty (1368–1644). Before that time the region was under Chinese influence only for limited periods of time. The area was settled by sedentary agricultural peoples as early as the 2nd century bc. It was successively the centre of the independent state of Dian, which became tributary to the Han dynasty (206 bc–ad 220) after 109 bc, and of the states of Nanchao (8th–10th century), Dali (10th–13th century), and Houli (11th–13th century).

The West Lake in Hangzhou

In the words of a popular adage, “Just as Paradise is in Heaven, so Suzhou and Hangzhou are on Earth.  West Lake is dotted with green trees and many colourful flowers-among them lotus, chrysanthemum and orchid. There are many other culture relics and archaeological sites around West Lake, for example, the famous Grand Canal. Welcome to China for Canton Trade fair. HRC is pleasure to provide Guangzhou hotels booking and China Tour guide .

 
Lying on the west edge of Hangzhou city, the beautiful West Lake covers a total area of 6.3 sq. km including islands in the lake and with an average depth of 2.27 m. It is divided into 5 areas by Su Causeway and Bai Causeway: Outer West  Lake, West Inner Lake,North Inner Lake, Little South Lake and  Yue Lake. In ancient times, this place had been a shallow sea gulf before it evolved into a "residual" lake, a term used in geography. Embraced by mountains and hills on three sides, the lake contains glittering blue water with Bai and Su Causeways lying calmly in it. Three islets of Lesser Yingzhou, Mid-Lake Pavilion and Ruangong Dun tripartitely stand at the centre of the lake which is girdled by a number of parks with myriad blossoming flowers and dense trees to hide in vain picturesque pavilions and towers. Here, one's poetic sentiments are inspired. The surrounding hills home miraculously shaped peaks and serene forests and springs, providing scenes to supplement those of the Lake. There hide amidst these hills China's national art treasures as ancient engraved stone tablets, architecture and stone figure carvings.

The improved landscape of West Lake can be seen to reflect Buddhist ideals imported into China from India such as 'Buddhist peacefulness' and 'nature as paintings', and in turn it had a major influence on landscape design in East Asia. Its causeways, islands, bridges, temples, pagodas and well defined views, were widely copied over China, notably in the summer Palace at Beijing and in Japan. The notion of ten poetically named scenic places persisted for seven centuries all over China and also spread to the Korean peninsula after the 16th century, when Korean intellectuals made visits to the West Lake.

Potala Palace is actually an architecture group situated on an extremely high mountain

Except the name Potala Palace, some Tibetans also call this mysterious architecture the 2nd Putuo Moutain, because they believe that this place is also for divinities who would always bless them. The reasons of why people built the Potala Palace vary. Some say the Songain Gambo built it to enhance his political power, by preventing enemies from outside. Others say Songzain Gambo, the King of Tubo, in order to marry the princess of Tang Dynasty, declared the start of this miracle.

Namjagbarwa Peak is reputed to be Paradise in the Clouds

Namjagbarwa Peak, located in Nyingchi Prefecture of Tibet Autonomous Region, is reputed to be Paradise in the Clouds. The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the Himalayas have been hailed as humankind's last land of mystery.

 
The word “Namjagbarwa” has several meanings in the Tibetan language, among which the most acknowledged is “the spear piercing into the sky”. Folklore suggests the mountaintop is where the gods get together, and the cloud around is smoke rising from the fragrant branches they burn. As a result, residents in the canyon deeply revere the lofty mountain.

It spans from the tropical zone to the frigid zone. The southern slope of Namjagbarwa Peak, with an elevation lower than 1100 meters, enjoys a warm and rainy climate. The evergreen rainforest composed of kapur, shorea assamica and some other plants is located at the lower slop with an elevation under 500 meters. Various typical tropical plants grow in the dark and humid tropical rainforest, such as the sugar palm and some other rattan plants.

The Xinghai Concert Hall is the best concert venue in Guangzhou

The Xinghai Concert Hall is the best concert venue in Guangzhou. It is named after Xian Xinghai, a renowned Chinese composer, who was just born in Guangzhou.  The Hall consists of three parts, a symphony performing Hall with 1500 seats, a Chamber Music Hall and a Music Material Room.

Named after Xian Xinghai, the Xinghai Concert Hall used to be Guangzhou’s main concert hall, comprising a symphony hall with 1,500 seats and a chamber music hall with 460 seats and located on Linjiang Arts Center Square on Ersha Island. The hyperbolic design covers the sound-optimized “mountain-valley terraced fields” of seat rows of the main hall. The Xinghai Concert Hall will be the place for the Gala concerts.

 
The symphony performing Hall was designed on the basis of natural sound, using reinforced concrete shell of hyperbolic paraboloids to cover the "Mountain valley-Terraced fields" seats so that the surfaces of these two parts directly form a "sound field". The architectural structural space is a acoustics one. The hard interior surface of the reinforced concrete shell and the sidewall of the parquet seat areas serve as the interface of the reflection and diffusion of the music sound. In addition, a spheric diffuser hung above the performing stage improves the mutually heard condition on the performing stage and reinforces the early reflected sound for the front seat areas.

The whole beach is flanked by a tree-lined esplanade dotted with restaurants, noodle bars, souvenir shops, clothing shops, food stalls etc. Unfortunately, the beach is usually overcrowded since it is only 30 metres wide and still densely packed with umbrellas and deck chairs for hire. Furthermore, the water quality is rather poor and not very suitable for bathing. There are no showers available on the beach either. However, Pattaya Beach boasts an excellent selection of watersports, including banana boats, rubber rings, jet skis, pedaloes etc. Note that you should beware of the notorious Jet Ski Scam if you don’t want to be ripped off. Pattaya Beach is an excellent place to lounge in your deckchair, have a coconut or a cold beer. You can also take an ultimately satisfying Thai massage while on the beach.
Before North Pattaya’s popular; it’s was a salt field industry. That’s why the scene still rustic; with original way such as house, boat, fishing boat, field, noodle and craft. End the rustic by Dolphin monument; start point of North Pattaya beach side.
Environment of North Pattaya beach side was different from slat filed. Many hotel, resort and restaurant and you can take a walk under palm to central Pattaya
