 Beautiful Wuyishan Mountain

  “The beauty of Wuyishan Mountain will amaze you,” my Chinese friends said when told I would visit the nature reserve of Wuyishan Mountain. While I was impatient to verify their comments, I was skeptical (怀疑的). As a Canadian I am accustomed to large acres of greenery and vast forest.
  But now, I must confess my impression was wrong. I was not aware that a nature reserve could embody such splendid scenery and offer such starting glimpse of history and ancient culture, in a country of 1.2 billion inhabitants, I have discovered the marvel of a nature coexists in harmony and where modern life does not disrupt (打断)the rhythm of nature.
  The reserve is divided into four zones foe protection and conservation which offer unique characteristics: the conservation zone of the Jiuquxi River in the center, the natural and cultural zone in the east, and finally, the ruins of the imperial Minyue City of the Han Dynasty in the village of Chengcun. These zones formed a total environment, which since 1987 has been recognized as part of the global network Man and Biosphere. To further promote preservation of this site, china has requested that Wuyishan Mountain reserve be listed as a Natural and Cultural World Heritage site of UNESCo (联合国教科文组织).
