Ma'anshan

KNOWLEDGE OF Ma'anshan

Ma'anshan (Simplified Chinese: 马éž?å±±; Traditional Chinese: 馬éž?å±±; Hanyu Pinyin: MÇŽ'Ä?nshÄ?n), also written as Maanshan, is a prefecture-level city in eastern Anhui province, People's Republic of China. An industrial city lying on the southern bank of the Yangtze River, Ma'anshan borders Chaohu to the northwest, Wuhu to the southwest, and the province of Jiangsu to the east.

Surrounded by low hills (Ma'anshan means "horse saddle mountain"), it is not as polluted as other major Chinese steelmaking cities. Caishi is a famous ancient battlefield lying to the southwest of the city. Caishi Rock is regarded as the best of three rocks that project over the Yangtze River. Taibai pavilion is one of four famous pavilions along the Yangtze river. Caishi scenic area is a national tourism spot, with a combination of natural and man-made scenery.

The main industry is the steel industry (MaGang) which employs much of the workforce of Ma'anshan. At present (2005) major expansions of the steel plant are underway to increase production drastically.

China's first poetry festival was to be held in Ma'anshan from October 25-30 2005. The theme of the festival, sponsored by the Ministry of Culture, the Chinese Writers Association, and the Anhui provincial government, is "Poetic China, Harmonious China."
