Editor's note:

Wuxi, with a history of 6,000-7,000 years, is located in the south of the Yangtze River. It has profound cultural heritages and a large amount of talents, and is home to the Wu Culture in ancient times, the national industrial and commercial culture in modern times and the township enterprise's culture nowadays.

The latest official data show that around 300,000 foreigners and people from Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan live, work, study and travel in the brilliant pearl of Taihu Lake.
