Wuxi
While travelling through the lush green countryside of Jiangsu province no tourist should hurry past the charming city of Wuxi (无锡,pronounced "woo-shee"). For those who enjoy lingering a bit longer Wuxi is a great city to settle down, to be involved with, or to work or invest in. In a nutshell it is full of opportunities and friendly people.

The city was originally called "Youxi" - meaning "with tin" - until the tin was all mined. Now it is "Wuxi"  - "without tin" - but maybe tin is the only thing that is missing from this modernized city with a long and interesting history.

The centre of Wuxi is a neat little city with busy streets and large department stores as well as a myriad of back streets and alleys full of tiny stalls, family businesses, and local people eager to please. A wealth of beautiful parks and peaceful gardens along with amazing scenery are just a short walk or brief bus ride away.
