Zhengzhou city, China

I live in Zhengzhou, which is a
city in the middle of China. It

has a population of 10,000,000
people so it is the third most

populous city in China.

There are lots of roads, because
we have too many cars. In fact,

every family has at least one

car in China. Like most Chinese
city we have many supermarkets

where you can buy anything,

fantastic restaurants, bars and
night clubs where you can party

all night.
The weather in China is very varied, although Zhengzhou has

pollution sometimes. The winter is not very dry, and it snows every

year. The summer is sunny but not usually too hot and a good choice
is go to the Yellow river.

Zhengzhou is famous for Chinese kung-fu and it is a great place to
learn Chinese kung-fu. Usually people like going to Shaolin temple

where they teach Chinese kung-fu. We also have many museums

about Chinese history and historic site of China. Although it is a
historical city, it not just has ancient buildings, it has some natural

scenery. Such as a river named Yellow River and a lake called Donglin

Lake.
However, I think the best thing about Zhengzhou is the food. In my

opinion Chinese food always taste good, but my hometown’s food is

the best. We have a traditional dish of noodles called “Huimian”, it is
my favourite food because I really like lamb in the noodles. Of

course, people are friendly but they are a little shy but this is normal
in China. That is main reason why I like living here so much.
