    江南春绝句
    Spring in the Yangtze Delta
    千里莺啼绿映红, 水村山郭酒旗风。 南朝四百八十寺, 多少楼台烟雨中。
    Orioles can be heard singing amid the red and green for a thousand li, 
    And wineshop streamers flutter in lakeside villages and hillside towns.
    Of the 480 temples built by the Southern Dynasties,
    Many towers and terraces still remain erect in the misty rain。

    青山隐隐水迢迢,秋尽江南草未凋

    二十四桥明月夜,玉人何处教吹箫”

    欲把西湖比西子,淡妆浓抹总相宜” 苏轼

    “上有天堂 下有苏杭” 

    I am fascinated with the beauty of Southern China so that I pulled out the link and the poems wriiten by ancient Chinese poets here. "Heaven is ablove, but Suhang is on earth' just depicted the Southern China. I am planning to visit the heavenly beauticul areas with my greatest interest soon.
