亚洲媒体聚焦美丽张家港

From May 28 to 31, 2014, China Daily in conjunction with the Publicity Department of CPC Committee of Zhangjiagang organized a trip of the city known for its long and rich history.

Fifteen journalists and editors from eight Asian countries including South Korea, Nepal, and Burma joined in the four-day media junket.

Their trip ranged from a visit to the port and bonded area to the classical Changchunyuan Storytelling House and the old village of Tianzhuang.

Zhangjiagang is a port on Yangtze River under the administration of Suzhou, Jiangsu province. It has population of around 1.25 million.

A Chinese monk named Jianzhen is said to have departed from the port of Huangsipu in Zhangjiagang to spread Buddhism to Japan in 753.

About a one and half hour drive from Shanghai, parts of Zhangjiagang have a history dating back 8,000 years.

张家港是一座新兴港口城市，土地古老、城市年轻。市内东山村遗址距今已有8000年历史，河阳山歌是江南“吴”文化中保存和传承得最好的吴歌，古黄泗浦是鉴真大师成功东渡日本的启航地。张家港的前身是沙洲县，所以张家港知名酒业品牌“沙洲优黄”因此得名。

张家港市注重城市绿色生态发展，生态优先、绿色发展贯穿经济社会建设的各方面和全过程。城乡供排水一体化、市域水循环体系、城乡绿化、清洁能源公交、公共自行车服务系统等建设均反映了今日“美丽张家港”不断展现新的城市质态。

张家港市目前全面推进城市现代化建设，继续推进精神文明城市建设、绿色生态文明建设、城乡一体化建设等张家港传统城市名片，争当苏南现代化建设、经济转型升级建设的排头兵。

“亚洲媒体聚焦美丽张家港”活动于2014年5月28日至30日圆满举行。除参观及拍摄张家港港口及保税区、张家港酿酒有限公司-沙洲优黄酒厂外，本次摄影记者团还造访了长春园书场、塘市小学、暨阳湖公园、购物公园等张家港文化教育场所及城市特色景区；此外，摄影记者团还来到了张家港市文化中心综合展示馆、永联村、河阳山歌馆、恬庄古镇及榜眼府等张家港文化代表地，两天的活动给亚洲各知名媒体记者们留下了深刻、震撼的印象，各国摄影记者们均表示此行拍到了很多张家港市具有代表性的人、事、物，记者们回国后纷纷在各自媒体对这些摄影作品进行了展示，同时他们还用自己的笔触写了大量有关张家港市的深度报道，这些摄影作品及报道将在本集册中一一展现。
