We have come to a strange city, so it is necessary to know about it. Everyone coming to Ningbo is no exception. So now I want to tell you about this city and its customs. Ningbo is located in the northeast of Zhejiang, in the middle of the East China Sea coast of China, and is the second largest city in Zhejiang. It is a sub-provincial city and has the right to formulate local laws and regulations. It is a famous port city and cultural city in China. It has jurisdiction over Yuyao, Cixi, Fenghua, Yinxian, Ninghai and Xiangshan. The urban area is divided into five districts: Jiangdong, Jiangbei, Beilun, Zhenhai and Haishu, with an urban area of 1033 square kilometers and a population of 120. The top is like a bell buckle, the bottom is like a bell, and the middle is like a bell belt, hence the name. As early as the Zhou Dynasty, Ningbo was called "Yong" land. Ningbo, known as Mingzhou in ancient times, was named after Siming Mountain. In the 26th year of Kaiyuan in Tang Dynasty (738), the court established Mingzhou, which was ruled by Yinjiang Town in Yinxian County until the 14th year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (65438).

The climate of Ningbo belongs to subtropical monsoon climate, with an annual average temperature of 16 degrees Celsius. There are four different seasons. There is more rain in spring and summer, but it is easily affected by typhoons. The weather is cool in autumn, and there is no cold in the east.

When we come to Ningbo, from what angle should we understand it? How is it presented to people? We can generally think that there are four business cards in Ningbo. First, open the first business card. This is Ningbo clothing. As the saying goes, "clothes make you want to look good", China people use "clothing, food, shelter and transportation" to summarize the most basic content of life, and clothes rank first. Han Feizi said that "people without feathers will be cold without clothes". In modern society, clothing is not only used by human beings to keep out the cold, but also. Since 1998, the first fashion museum in China was born in Ningbo, people have been discussing the topic of "Dalian in the north and Ningbo in the south". Since China got his own dragon robe, there have only been two significant changes in clothing, one is the practical riding and shooting of Khufu for the public, and the other is the declaration of the Chinese tunic suit. In the past, people used clothes to express their status except houses, which completely limited their personality characteristics. However, the appearance of suits can reflect human's desire for healthy body. After the "five-port trade", Ningbo tailors who went out to make a living made suits for foreigners (then known as redheads) with superb ancestral skills. So the "red tailor" came into being. A pair of scissors, a ruler, the first Chinese tunic suit to China, the first suit and the first suit shop all came from Ningbo people. It grew from a small sapling to a towering tree. In 1990s, Ningbo clothing entered the golden age, with more than 1.6 million enterprises, accounting for about 12% of the national annual clothing productivity. Ningbo's clothing industry is considered as the most promising sector to compete with China's clothing industry in the future in China. Ok, now let's check if you are wearing Ningbo clothes. When you check in at night, hurry to buy it, because in the future, maybe you will be proud of wearing Ningbo clothes (just kidding). The famous clothing brands in Ningbo can be said to be star-studded. At the "Youngor", "Shanshan" and "Lomon" clothing festivals of 200 1, Mr. Pierre Cardin, a 77-year-old giant in the international clothing industry, said emotionally. "I am also amazed that China has such a good clothing enterprise, but Shanshan staged a Banquet at Tianyi Pavilion, which, under the extraordinary demonstration of world famous models Chen Juanhong and Ma Yanli, showed the profound cultural heritage of Jiangnan gardens to people incisively and vividly.

Ningbo's second business card is "Ningbo Gang". Of course, don't misunderstand that it is a "gangster" on the rivers and lakes, but a general term for many Ningbo people who are wandering outside. The birthplace of "Ningbo Gang" is in Longshan, Cixi, the northern edge of the central city. The typical representative and leader of "Ningbo Gang" is Yu Qiaqing, known as "Adege", who was born in Longshan in the sixth year of Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty. His family is very poor. He is only seven years old. A 65,438+05-year-old student named "Reading Colleen Chan" went to Shanghai. Sometimes when it rains, their mothers are reluctant to wear shoes, so they go barefoot into the shop. Later, after the injury became famous, people nicknamed it "barefoot god of wealth", which is a typical image of "Ningbo gang" fighting the world with their bare hands. Yu Qiaqing relied on "Ningbo Gang" all his life, which also made "Ningbo Gang" rise and go to the world. Up to now, it stands at the intersection of Shanghai Tibet Road and Nanjing Road. After Ningbo and Yu Qiaqing made their fortune, they became enthusiastic about public welfare undertakings in their hometowns. 1906, they donated money to set up Longshan school, and children were admitted to school free of charge, and Longshan pier was built. Celebrities of "Ningbo Gang" include Bao Zhaolong, honorary chairman of Hong Kong Global Shipping Group, the world shipping king, film and television celebrities, and Yu, a contemporary scholar, all of whom have made many contributions to the construction of their hometown.

Ningbo's third business card is "Ningbo Port". In the 11th year of Tianbao in the Tang Dynasty (752), three Japanese envoys from the Tang Dynasty came to China from Japan and slowly sailed into Mingzhou Port, marking the official opening of Ningbo Port in ancient times. Mingzhou Port, Guangzhou, Yangzhou in Tang and Song Dynasties and Quanzhou in Guangzhou in Yuan Dynasty are listed as the three major ports for China to open to the outside world. After the Opium War, Ningbo became one of the "five major trading ports". After the rise of Shanghai in the north, its status weakened. Dr. Sun Yat-sen and his wife Soong Ching Ling arrived in Ningbo by boat from Shanghai. When passing through Zhapuyang, they once said: "After the founding of our country, it is bound to establish the largest port in the East here." Unfortunately, they died before they realized their ambitions. By 1978, the government of China formulated the policy of opening to the outside world, and made a solemn decision to build an Oriental port in Ningbo. After more than 20 years' efforts, Ningbo Port has been transformed from a regional port to. It has developed into a comprehensive port integrating inland river port, estuary port and seaport, and Yongjiang River is the golden waterway of Ningbo traffic world. Yongjiang River is surrounded by Yaojiang River full of ancient Yue cultural charm and flows all the way to the East China Sea. Ningbo Port has a cargo distribution port and a fishing port, represented by Beilun Port and Shipu Port. By 2000, the cargo throughput of Beilun Port exceeded 1 100 million tons! Now, as one of the world's 100 million-ton ports, Ningbo No.7 Port has established navigation links with more than 500 ports in more than 80 countries and regions around the world. Beilun Port has a unique 200,000-ton ore wharf and 250,000-ton crude oil wharf in Chinese mainland. The first project of Ningbo New Century Project is to build Ningbo Port into an international deepwater transit hub port. Shipu Port is one of the four major fishing ports in China, which is connected with Zhoushan Islands and borders Ningbo in the East China Sea. People's feelings for the ocean are profound. "The ocean is as solid as gold. If you fish when you are exhausted, there will be no fish, and if you overdo it, there will be no fish." That is to say, although the ocean is vast, overfishing fishermen will have no fish to catch and nothing in the ocean, so "being kind to the ocean is being kind to human beings". Thus, there was the China Fishing Festival in 2000. What is a fishing festival? It means that fishermen stop fishing spontaneously from July to September every year, which is called "closed fishing period". However, after September 15, a sea sacrifice ceremony was held and a series of cultural activities were held to pray for peace and harvest, which was called "fishing season". In the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the sea, after reading the eulogy, the participating teams stepped down from the altar and thought about the sea. Then we made a toast to the sea, and then 65,438+08 children held glass fish tanks to let crabs, shrimps and young fish survive in the sea to show the gratitude and feedback of fishermen's descendants to the sea. Finally, 65,438+000 young men and women bowed their heads in three steps and prayed for the sea with pious and enthusiastic dance. May the sea stop crying, may the waves ripple, may the tide be orderly, and may the boat return to Man Cang for fishing. ...

Then the fourth business card of Ningbo is "Ningbo Scenery". Ningbo won 1999 the title of the first batch of excellent tourist cities in China. Ningbo is a famous historical and cultural city with a long history and culture, full of heroic achievements of wandering around the world, with Putuo Mountain in the east, Yandang Mountain in the south and Beauty West Lake in the west.

It looks like a lotus and is suspected to be near a star. The top of the mountain is extremely flat and straight, with a square stone like a window connecting the sun, the moon and the starlight, so it is called Siming. " This is the origin of the name Siming Mountain. Tiantai Mountain, the main mountain range is in Tiantai County, and the rest is in Ningbo. Four branches enter from the northwest and southwest of Ninghai County and extend to Zhenhai and the eastern mountainous area of Yinxian County through Xiangshan Port.
