Come along as Alainna discovers Changzhou - the Dragon City! This quaint city， located on the Yangtze River， is one of China's economic powerhouses. And it is also one of China's "Greenest Cities"， with dozens of parks found throughout it， including Hongmei Park， modeled after New York's Central Park.
Changzhou was founded in 547 BC， by Jizha， a prince of the State of Wu. Known for his intellect， Jizha was even admired by one of China's greatest philosophers，
Confucius. You can find out more about him and his contributions to Changzhou inside these pages.
Alainna takes you along as she visits Changzhou's famous sites - from Qingguo
Alley and the Yan City Ruins to the contemporary and fun - Dinosaur Park， Changzhou's dinosaur-themed amusement park.
Along the way， she meets up with people who live， work and play in Changzhou - an American businessman， a master artisan， retired villagers - to name a few. Each of them provides a unique view of Changzhou's past， present and future.
Changzhou is also known for its arts. Random stitch embroidery， Liuqing bamboo carving and imperial combs are just some of Changzhou's famous handicrafts.
Alainna meets with the masters who are keeping these handicrafts alive. Look inside these pages and see for yourself!
