JIANGXI

South of middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River lies
Jiangxi, a province bordered by Zhejiang and Fujian Provinces to the
east, Guangdong Province to the South, Hunan Province to the west,
and Hubei and Anhui provinces to the north. Under the jurisdiction
of Jiangxi are 4 prefectures (Ji'an, Yichun, Wuzhou and Shangrao)
and 7 municipalities (Nanchang, Yingtan, Pingxiang, Xinyu, Jiujiang,
Jingdezhen and Ganzhou). Nanchang, the capital city, is the leading
transportation hub of the entire province and a major transit center
for travelers entering and leaving the province. With the Beijing
Kowloon Railway crossing the Hangzhou-Nanchang Railway in Jiangxi,
where more than 70 pairs of trains shuttle to and fro on a daily
basis. The charms of the local landscape are ascribed to the
magnificent forms of the Lushan (a world cultural heritage site),
Jinggangshan, Longhushan and Sanqing mountains, as well as the
mirror-like Poyang Lake, the largest freshwater lake of China.
Porcelain making goes back a long time at Jingdezhen and forms a
cultural school in its own right. The Prince of Teng's Tower by the
Poyang Lake is one of the three major towers south of the Yangtze.
The presence of so many revolutionary sites bespeak Jiangxi's
important position in modern Chinese revolution.
