You want drama? Like that movie-moment when two great
warriors clash in battle, dueling for the fate of the
world? Or when perfect soul mates must face unbeatable odds
to be together? China has all the excitement and magic of
the movies, but it’s real.
There’s hardly a place more different from America than
China. “Cinematic” barely begins to describe the beauty of
ancient Nanjing, where the Yangtze River laps its dewy
banks at the foot of the great Purple Mountain.
You can get into this amazing summer program with just a little bit of
previous Chinese language instruction (approx. one year or the equivalent).
Your room on campus is a short walk from the city center,
with easy access to various campus activities like Kung Fu or painting. The only suspense here is how you’ll
fit in everything you want to do and see, so expect to
enjoy every moment of this epic adventure!
This 6,000-
year-old city might feel like a movie set at first, until
you realize it’s also a major commercial and cultural
center brimming with action. Sights like the cavernous Ming
Tombs, the Drum Tower, the Flying Swallow Overlook, and the
ancient treasures in the Nanjing Museum will delight. Savor
the irony that the Confucius Temple (first built in 1034 as
a place of reflection) is now surrounded by market stalls
selling everything from jade amulets to CDs. And because this is South China, you can be
sure to find foods you’ve never imagined—monkey fish
anyone?
