We welcome you to Changchun in the North East of China. There's lots
to see and do here, it is a great place to linger for a year or two
while you brush up on your standard Chinese.

Changchun is the "City of Culture," it boasts a film studio (that
often hires foreigners), the Last Emperor's Palace and other artifacts
of the Japanese occupation, a German car factory, Russian bulidings,
and everywhere Korean restaurants. 

Every night of the year almost without exception there is traditional
costume dancing in most parks and street corners, not just for
tourists, but for real.

This is a real place, ruggedly natural, a taste of the real China, a
very large wilderness park nearby and several other quiet places not
too far from Beijing and yet pleasantly remote from the the bustle of
100,000 other foreigners. 

There are several hundred friendly foreigners in Changchun. We have a
well patronised bar run by a French man near to MacDonald's and KFC.
