Hongfeng Lake
Hongfeng Lake in the Guizhou province of Southwest China
Red Marple Lake Scenic Area
Located about 32 kilometers (20 miles) west of Guiyang is the Red Maple Lake (Hongfeng Lake). It is considered to be the pearl of the Guizhou Plateau, and is the most fascinating among the three lakes in this part of Guizhou. The other two are Baihua (Hundred Flowers) Lake and Dongfeng (East Wind) Lake.
Red Maple Lake is the largest artificial lake on the Guizhou Plateau. Its surface covers 57.2 square kilometers (22 square miles) and in area is twelve times the size of the Ming Tombs Reservoir in Beijing and six times as large as the famous West Lake in Hangzhou. The lake and the surrounding scenic area occupy a total of 240 square kilometers (93 square miles). There are many red maple trees on the surrounding mountain ranges whose leaves turn red every fall - hence the lake's name.
The HonRed Maple Lake Scenic Area consists of four parts: the North Lake, the South Lake, the Rear Lake and the minority ethnic villages. The North Lake is the smallest and is famous for its various islands such as Bird Island, Snake Island and Tortoise Island. Along the shore there is a historic complex of ancient tombs left by the Western Han Dynasty.
The South Lake is noted for its caves, including the General's Cave, Fishing Cave and Underground Cave. The Rear Lake is renowned for its picturesque countryside. The many roads along the lake's shore offer opportunities for leisurely walks to admire the beautiful scenery.
The area contains interesting examples of village architecture, including a Miao traditional house (DiaoJiaolou), a Bouyei flagstone house and a Dong drum tower which has a roofed bridge. The drum tower can be reached by boat to enjoy a panoramic view of the Red Maple Lake. The minority ethnic villages on the shores of the lake are unique. In accordance with village custom, visitors can be assured of a warm welcome-to the extent that they may be reluctant to leave.
Red Maple Lake is beautiful and serene. It is an ideal tourist destination and can be conveniently included in an itinerary that includes the Dragon Palace and Huangguoshu Waterfall.

Longqingxia Bungee Jump
Longqinxia is a manmade reservoir near Beijing, turned into a tourist area. It's pretty impressive considering how close you are to the city, and they have quite a few features to make a daytrip worthwhile. Hiking, boating, scenery, temples, zip lines and this, a 60m bungee jump.
This was my first time bungee jumping, and I didn't know whether they were following all the safety rules (hey, it's a 150 RMB bungee jump in China), but the sign said they were trained by a New Zealand crew. You only live once!

貴州是古人類發祥地之一，遠古人類化石和遠古文化遺存發現頗多。早在24萬年前，就有人類棲息繁衍，已發現石器時代文化遺址80余處。觀音洞舊石器遺址被正式命名爲觀音洞文化，對研究中國舊石器時代的起源和發展具有重要的科學價值。
曆史上的貴州地區很長的一段時間一直被視爲蠻夷之鄉和化外之邦。貴州的曆史與黔這個簡稱有著深厚的曆史淵源，貴州的曆史可以追溯的到2000多年前。同時，貴州是中國共産黨的紅色根據地之一1935年紅軍在貴州高原作戰，並在遵義召開了決定性的回憶（史稱遵義會議），此次會議確立了毛澤東同志在紅軍中的領導地位，並爲中國革命的勝利奠定了基礎。
苗、侗爲貴州人口最多的兩個少數民族，幾乎集中了中國60%以上的這兩個少數民族的人口。另外在貴州，水、布依、彜族、土家族均有廣泛分布，整個貴州少數民族達到48個之多。衆多的少數民族使得貴州充滿了豐富多彩的少數民族文化。
Guizhou is one of the birthplaces of ancient human beings and has many ancient human fossils and ruins. About 240 thousand years ago, there were human inhabitation and reproduction, and more and 80 stone age sites had been found. The Guanyin Cave Paleolithic site was officially named Guanyin Cave Culture, which plays a vital role in studying the origin and development of the Paleolithic Age in China.
Guizhou was regarded as barbarians place and outside place of China for a long time in the history of China. In addition, the history of Guizhou can be traced back to more than 2,000 years ago. Also, Guizhou is one of Chinese communist red bases. In 1935, the Red Army fought in Guizhou Plateau and held the decisive meeting (known as Zunyi Meeting) in Zunyi. The meeting established the leadership position of Mao Zedong in the Red Army, and built the foundation for the victory of Chinese revolution.
Miao and Dong are the two most populous minorities in Guizhou, gathering more than 60% people of those two minorities in China. Besides, there are also Shui, Buyi, Li, and Tujia ethnic groups in Guizhou. What's more, the total number of ethnic minorities Guizhou reaches 48. Because of those ethnic groups, Guizhou becomes a colorful and beautiful place.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
