My hometown

My hometown is Anshan City of Liaoning Province of China. It is located at the northeast of China. The latitude of Anshan City is almost the same of Hirosaki City. But Anshan is in the inland area so its rainfall is far more smaller than Hirosaki’s. Anshan’s population is 3,65million. And the area of Anshan is almost 4times of Tokyo.

Anshan is an industrial city. Anshan is bounded in iron resource. It is famous for its big iron producing company “Angang”, which is the second largest iron company in China. There are almost 100thousand stuffs in the company. In China everyone knows Anshan, just because of the famous Iron company.

Anshan is also a good place for tourist. Mount Qian is the most famous view spot. Mount  Qian means a thousand mountains. So there are many mountains in Mount Qian. And also many trees, rocks.

Anshan’s local special product is a kind of pear called Nanguoli(南果梨). It’s very soft and sweet, the taste is special. It is also a good present.

Anshan has a big figure of the Buddha,which is made of jade. It is the most big jade figure of Buddha in the world. It is treated as Anshan’s treasure and patron saint. Every year,many people go there for pray.
