Changchun: heaven like land with loving people

By Yasir Habib Khan

Everywhere there are flamboyant flowers along the roads. Outside the spaces of buildings, spillover of various lush green plants seem to be adding valuable beauty to extensive scenic beauties. Whether sun rises or sets in serenity and tranquility reign supreme. Bio-geography offers an exclusive improvement in flora and fauna. Mega structures and skyrocketing buildings inculcate a sense of grandness about the place.

This narration is not about a place in heaven instead it is about Changchuan, famous northeast beautiful piece of land of Jilin. With its unique traits and wonders, Changchuan has a lot to offer.

Honestly speaking, landscaping is so well-designed on digital age standards that even critics have to utter tributary remarks. Tech-savvy team of horticulturists and arborists may have toiled hard to make this happen. In order to improve the eco-system, tree density is tremendously maintained. Most trees have been tied up with various wood structures to keep the position straight. Networks of green belts running along small and big arteries give spectacular look. An onlooker can never miss to observe mechanism of stabilizing soil in the greenbelts. Green sheets having small pours are laid down on soil so that they could not fly and litter the clean roads.

It merits mentioning that local people are known for their good ethics, mannerism and sophistication. It appears that peace and benevolence run in their blood. Each person is symbolically ambassador of state. If one behaves like well-cultured, top leadership of state is dubbed as well-cultured. If one shows lawlessness and bad conduct, leadership is characterized unrefined. In case of Changchun, local people have not let the pride go down. As they are civilized and working with unity and harmony, image of China in the eyes of international community has blossomed.

During bus tour setting sights on various places, Stalin Avenue drew attention of everyone in foreign delegation to which I am a part from Pakistan. The delegates became happy when they walked on their foot to explore Cultural Avenue Park. Flocks of pigeons and flying kites were breathtaking panorama. One kite seller who had been hanging their kites on the fence turned excited when I got photographed with him. He talked high about Pakistan friendship with Chinese people. He said Pakistan and China are like two body one soul. .
 
Usually, a nation if ruled by others has to get into their coloured sometime completely and sometime partially. Changchun for long time remained under Japanese regime but it did not lose its identity and values. Japanese architecture with proper exterior and interior are spotted but Japanese culture, lifestyle, literature are not viewed into the lives of Chinese people. This might shows Chinese mindset, social fabric and traditions are so well-rooted that they could never be affected by Japanese long rule in Northeastern part of China.
