I've had my fair share of travelling around China, and a recent week-long trip to Guizhou was my first time to the province. I tried looking up the meaning and significance of the name Guizhou before the trip, (basic)to have a reasonable idea of what was in store for me. But that was hard task so I inquired from a Chinese colleague on the trip. From what she said, initially the province (name)after a famous mountain called "Gui", sort of noble in literal translation and "zhou", which simply means province in Chinese. (keep)that in mind I set out on a journey of discovery and I found was mind-blowing, a photographer's paradise. Generally (describe)as a mountainous province in southwestern China, with Guiyang as (it)capital, the province is truly one of nature's best kept secrets. Compared to other leading (province)in China, with regard development, Guizhou has some catching-up to do. However, the province remains unique not only for its amazing landscape, for the role it played in the political history of modern China and the role it is to play in the world.
