Travel in Tibet
|
In Tibet (xī zàng 西藏), Namu (nà mù 纳木) means sky, so Tibetans regard Namu Lake (nà mù cuò 纳木措) as the "lake in the sky". Namu lake is the largest lake in Tibet, with a total area of 1920 K㎡, 70 km in length from east to west, 30 km in width from north to south and more than 33m in depth. The lake is an approximate rectangle and is the head of three big God Lakes in Tibet. Opposite it, there are the hight snow-covered dominant peaks of the Danggula Mountain (táng gǔ lā shān 唐古拉山) whose inverted image lies in the lake. This scene is very wonderful and marvelous. |

China Living Tips -
Housing & Finance
|
 For many years, Chinese government policy was to separate foreigners from the local population by making them live in specially designated and segregated properties. Today, however, expatriates can live in, rent or even purchase housing in China on the same terms as the Chinese. Housing options in China include apartments, dormitories, villas (houses), serviced apartments and hotels.
Many foreigners in China live on a school campus. English teachers are given apartments on the campus; foreign students normally live in a dormitory.
If you want to immerse yourself into Chinese culture and quickly learn Chinese, you should consider renting a room in someone else’s apartment or a shared flat. You can find ads from people looking for flatmates on Chinese housing websites or in English magazines.You will also sometimes find an ad from a Chinese family or individual who desires to live with a native English-speaker and will provide a free room in exchange for language practice.
