What is Chengdu?
1.
A big city in south-west China with about 4000 years history. Famous for its beauties ( this probably only in Easten esthetic sense?cause I only heard Chinese and Japanese said so) and food( this one is world widely acknowledged, cause almost all Chinese food you can get in a Chinese resturant in the world is either Sichuan food or Guangdong food, and Chengdu is the capital of Sichuan Province). So the city has an other name as Kingdom of Heaven( we use "kingdom" is because the city used to be the capital of several ancient China kingdoms)
Yes, beauty and good food--sound like heaven to a man, right?
Well this remained a lots of arguement because you might not accept the taste of both asian beauty and spicy food( Sichuan food is famous for its spicy taste)
But recently, Chengdu is more famous for its IT and entertainment business, and probabaly the largest city in West China. Chengdu is now the second or third largest IT market in China and also a good place which produced certain amount of Chinese celebrities. For example: almost all world class e-sports events have either a Chengdu Stop or a Chendu Division; Many young pop stars or artists are from Chengdu, like the famous China Super Girl, although it gets too much criticised by the society, it made many Chengdu girls celebrity, especially in Year 2005, 7 out of 8 in the Super Girl Final are from Chengdu and they have got even more fans than those pop stars in China.
