Arts & Design (go to an Exhibition with my friends)

On Feb 28,my friends and I went to Nanjing Museum.We chose this museum because Nanjing Museum has more than 400000 types of collections, there is the earliest Paleolithic collections, the latest are now, including stone implements, pottery, jade, bronze ware, porcelain, calligraphy, painting, embroidery, bamboo and ivory carving, folk and contemporary works of art and so on, and have some country level artifact smore than 1062 .The archaeological excavations goods of high historical, artistic and scientific value. There is one of 10 heritage collections for the national treasure.
We went to the Ancient Chinese Lacquer Exhibition. I saw a cow pulled a carriage,the cow's body are gray,this artework were make not very meticulous, but when we first saw, it we will know this ancient must made by China,because it has Ancient Chinese freehand brushwork.Beside this artwork, there is a person pulled a cow, the cow followed by carriage, but this work was more exquisite than the other one, you can see the lines on the carriage's curtains, also it has more patterns on the wheels, I think because of the time, producer were perfect its flaws.

Then we moved to the Jiangnan Fairview Museum.Rhododendrons were Nanjing specialty.Rhododendron production are currently the only Chinese can not be replaced by machines Weaving Process, the two people operations each day with only can weaved 5-6 cm. So, it was not only beauty, but also the national cultural heritage of living fossils for thousands of years .We saw an enormous textile machine there,and there were a lot of embroidery,too.

At here, we also saw some Wuweishan's sculptures.I want to went here naxt time!

Cultural Awareness with my friends.

On Dec.17,I and some GCA friends went to a Italian Restaurant called "Bella Napoli."This is a very westernized restaurants, all the chefs areItalian people. May be customary for people of Asian flavors, the food here are more general, but when we arrived here we saw a lot of foreign customers. I think they really love this restaurant. Environment there was very gorgeous, all the waiter had a warm smile.
I have collected some of the names of these food from the menu.First we chose the antipasti and insalate.When I saw the menu,I choose the a food made by typical neapolitan bruschetta with Oregano\Garlic\Tomato\Basil\Anchovies and Extravergin Olive Oil.It called"Bruschetta-Bella Napoli"
Then we chose the Pasta,on the menu there are a lot of kinds of Pasta:Scinue,Siciliana,Bologuese,Carbonara,Pesto Genovese,Carciofinie Salsiccia with tamato sauce,Amatriciana,puttanesca and pomodoroe basilico.The waiter told us we can choose a pasta with our favourte sauce spaghetti,linguine,farfalle,pene,fusilli.I chose the Pasta named "Puttanesca",it made by anchoives,cappers and black olives and tomato sauce.
Last we choose the main courses.I chose the "Polloal forno con rosmarinoe timo",one of the food made by poasted apring chicken with rosemary and thyme.It looked very delicious and smelt good.
At Bella Napoli you will find the real Vesuvian atmosphere where you might think you are indeed in Italy.
