The Temple of Six Banyan Trees in Guangzhou

Originally built in 537, the temple has been rebuilt several times, and the name has also been changed several times from Changshou Temple (meaning Longevity Temple) to Jinghui Temple and finally the current name. It is a name given by the great litterateur Su Dongpo in the Song Dynasty (960 – 1279). It is said that he visited the temple while returning to the north. During the visit, he found six banyan trees there particularly striking. The vitality of the trees put him in a good mood and cheered him up. When the abbot of the temple invited him to suggest a name, Su Dongpo wrote down its present name. Finally, the temple changed its former name (Jinghui Temple) to the name Temple of the Six Banyan Trees. A pagoda in the temple is known variously as Six Banyan Pagoda or Flowery Pagoda.
The architecture that catches the visitors’ eyes most is the Six Banyan Pagoda. It is a pagoda where Buddhist relics are placed. Its roofs curve upwards and look like dark red flower petals. The tip of the pagoda is like stamens, while the whole construction looks like a huge stigma high in the air. Therefore, people like to call it the Flowery Pagoda. The pagoda not only has a nice appearance, but also provides visitors a good place to overlook enchanting scenery around.
To the west of the Six Banyan Pagoda is Daxiong Baodian Hall – the main hall of the temple. The three biggest copper Buddhist statues placed there are among the biggest and most ancient Buddhist statues in Guangdong. The middle one is Sakyamuni, to the left, the Amitabha and to the right, the Apothecary Buddha. They stand for present, past and future.

411
After entering by the mountain gate, the Tianwang Hall is the first hall you will see. The Laughing Buddha is there with smile all over his face to welcome visitors. Behind it is the Weituo Hall. According to legend, Weituo was a general who recaptured the Buddhist relics which had been stolen. He keeps a straight face, looking very serious and frightful, in distinct contrast with the Laughing Buddha.
The Temple of Six Banyan Trees has a long history in Guangzhou and is an ancient monastery famous at home and abroad. There are majestic towers, dense trees, plenty of antiques and valuable heritage from those famous people in the history.

Canton Fair still plays an important role in China’s foreign trade

Canton Trade Fair can partly reflect the trading situation of China but not the huge processing trading condition.

Days ago, the Report on the Foreign Trade Situation of China issued by business department pointed out that we would make progress while ensuring stability and focus on growing steadily, adjusting structure and promoting balance. Under this circumstance, our foreign trading is growing with a stable speed in the second season. In 2012, we will maintain a smooth development during the year. However, Canton Fair still plays an important role in China’s foreign trade. Along with the special background in the past and more than fifty years’ acceleration of buyers, the fair can be considered as the only exhibition which can bring about a great amount of orders with high quality in the demostic. Comparing to those exhibitions in local or aboard which look for orders without any directions, Canton Fair is obviously more effective and characteristic.
The city of Guangzhou in China, known as Canton until 1949 and still referred to that way by many Westerners, is one of the new capitals of global trade. In addition to being the home of thousands of Chinese and multinational businesses, it also hosts the world’s largest trade fair, known as the China Import and Export Fair as well as its unofficial name, the Canton Fair.
