5. Introduction of the three places:


Dr. Sun Yat-sen(1866-1925 A.D.) is one of the most important historic figure in Chinese history. China was ruled by about 5000 years of monarchy, but the last Dynasty, Qing Dynasty, was so out-of-date that China was semi-colonial and semi-feudal society then. Dr. Sun first called out Nationalism, Democracy, the People's Livelihood(The Three People's Principal). After years of effort, he founded the Republic of China(ROC) in 1911. The capital of ROC was in China.


Nanjing Museum is one of the largest and oldest museums in China. We can enjoy the whole history of China via watching antient or traditional Chinese pottery, painting, caligraphy and tools.


Confucius(551-479 B.C.) is one of the most important educators in Ancient China. His Confucianism(or Ru) is now still affecting Chinese philosophy. Now, Confucius Temple has been one of the most important market area. We can  now take boats and enjoys views on Qinhuai River(which is the mother river of Nanjing), try the authentic Nanjing snacks and buy some cheap goods(or even try bargaining) in Confucius Temple.
