Hello everyone, I want to tell you about something , My name is Afri zilfia, I’m from Indonesia, I'm currently studying at Nanjing Institute Of Railway Technology, Department of Transportation Management and Operations, Nanjing, China. My activities so far have been going lectures and also follows organizations outside the university, the activities on campus that I enjoy most there are at the beginning of lecture when we are still learning languages, because at that time we were introduced to various cultures and also college performance activities such as campus performances during the new year, and other shows that were very memorable, then we were also learned how to make dumplings, very interesting indeed, our lecturers were also very patient in teaching us Chinese language.

My goal come to China is to achieve my dream to become a food business and also open a travel business abroad, so I want to survey places and also food around China specifically, it is Nanjing.

For more than 2 years I lived in Nanjing, in my opinion this city is one of the Jiangsu provinces that is recommended for students like me, because of its friendly community, living cost relatively low. and also its convenient transportation compared to other cities in China such as Shanghai , Beijing, or other densely populated cities. In addition, Nanjing also provides a variety of interesting vacation spots to visit.

First came to Nanjing around 2017, the first vacation spot I visited was the monument Sut Ya-tsen, at that time I went with new friends that I knew and also some seniors, we used public buses, the journey was approximately 2 hours from college, when it was a national holiday, so there were quite a lot of visitors, even though the charm of the Chinese buildings in sun yatsen was unforgettable.

The place I visit most often during holidays, both summer holidays and winter holidays or regular holidays is fuzimiao, because in this place I can see typical Chinese buildings, ranging from its architecture to its tourist rides, in addition to entering fuzimiao as well free of charge

So that in the holiday season, people who visit this place tend to be crowded, behind this fuzimiao there are also other tourist attractions that are similar in name laomendong, in this place besides interesting buildings there is also a very diverse street food, so me and my friends if want to buy souvenirs that will be brought back to Indonesia, we buy them here. Usually in the summer my friends and I often camp here too.

During my stay here, in my opinion transportation in one of the provinces of Jiangsu is very convenient, because every public transportation is equipped with air conditioning, starting from the bus to the metro railway station (MRT), so that not a few people in Nanjing prefer public transportation over trains, therefore in this city traffic jams are very rare, and also using public transportation is very cost effective than using private vehicles. One of the uniqueness of public vehicles here consists of various attractive colors, and also public transportation here is very orderly organized Therefore, I feel that traveling anywhere is safer, more comfortable, orderly and also organized.

One of my hobbies is looking for traveling while looking for good food, in my opinion in Nanjing there are lots of tasty and cheap street food, for example jiidan guanbing (pancakes), this is one of my favorite snacks here, usually every afternoon or night with my friends I went to the market in front of the campus to buy this food, because the price is cheap and the taste is in accordance with my tongue, the contents in this food are also very diverse, my friend said this food is one of the best Chinese specialties,besides that there is also the name huangmenji, this chicken-based food is very suitable for me who likes spicy, because the chilli is very distinctive and the price is not too expensive, this food is also widely available in various places, for example in stalls around traditional markets , office or restaurant, in my opinion huangmenji is one of the foods that are very popular among the people both old and young, because it is available everywhere, this food consists of various spices that are rich in nutrients and also healthy for the body, this food is served in the heat, one of the huangmenji that I think is good is in the Fuqiao area, because of its thick gravy and seasoning that tastes, its tender chicken meat, plus its right portion. When we are traveling we always stop by there, even if only just eat.

Therefore, one day I will seize my dream,and tell to all my friends and to everyone, Nanjing is most recommended city to study and to visit.
