下面的四座城市，你都了解嗎？

1Everyone knows China has the world's largest population.But do you know China has well over 100 cities with over a million people?The following are 4 famous cities in China.

2Everyone knows the capital of China is Beijing,though some may still call it Peking.Peking is rather traditional,and no longer used in China,except in some terms such as Peking duck,which originated in Beijing as an imperial(皇帝的)food.Beijing is more of a “modern” imperial capital,being China's seat of power for most of the last 1,000 years,and not featuring much before that.Beijing's imperial attractions include the Forbidden City,the Temple of Heaven and the Summer Palace.

Shanghai

3Most people have also heard of one of China's largest city,Shanghai.Shanghai has reaped(取得)the benefits of its location jutting（伸出）out into the Pacific Ocean at the mouth of the Yangtze River,and has become the world's busiest container port,shipping “made in China” products all over the world.With a population of over 20 million,Shanghai rivals the largest cities in the world for size and prosperity,and the Shanghainese are proud of it.Shanghai is the showcase for China's economic success.

Hong Kong

4Hong Kong is famous for its movies popularizing Chinese culture,and its movie star Jackie Chan.Hong Kong is also known for its overseas Chinese population.Most Chinatowns have a Hong Kong character and the Cantonese language.The vast majority of the second and third generation of Chinese in Chinatowns originated from Hong Kong,as while the rest of China was closed before 1978,Hong Kong was open and mobile.

Guangzhou

5For those who do manufacturing business with China,the chances are that you have heard of Guangzhou,the largest manufacturing area in China.Probably Guangzhou's most famous exports are Cantonese food and the Cantonese language.Guangzhou was called Canton when it gave its name to the Cantonese language,which is spoken all over the southeast corner of China,especially Hong Kong,and Chinatowns worldwide.
