We came to an unfamiliar city, it is necessary to understand the situation of the city, we came to Ningbo is no exception, then I now give you an introduction to the situation of the city and customs. Ningbo is located in the northeastern part of Zhejiang Province, the East China Sea in the middle of China's coast, is the second largest city in Zhejiang Province, is China's further opening up to the outside world of the sub-provincial cities and cities with the right to formulate local laws and regulations.

Ningbo referred to as "Ningbo", is a hieroglyphic character, such as the bell button, under the shape of a bell, the middle of the two horizontal such as the bell band, because of the territory of Ningbo there is a mountain peaks like overlaying the big bell, so the name. As early as in the Zhou Dynasty, there is a "Yong" the title of the land. Ningbo was called Mingzhou in ancient times, because there are four bright mountains named. Tang Kaiyuan twenty-six years (738) the court set the state of Ming, the state in Yin County, Yinjiang Town, to Ming Hongwu fourteen years (1381) Ming Tai Zu Zhu Yuanzhang adopted a Yin County reader single Zhongyou's advice, take "sea fixed wave is the meaning of Ning", the change of Ningbo has been used to date.

Ningbo's climate is subtropical monsoon climate, the average annual temperature of 16 degrees Celsius, the four seasons, spring and summer rains more, but vulnerable to the impact of typhoons, cool fall, east no cold.

Coming to Ningbo, from what angle do we want to understand it? How does it show itself to people? We can generalize that Ningbo **** has four business cards. We first open the first business card, this is the Ningbo suit, as the saying goes: "clouds want clothes and flowers want to face", the Chinese people use "clothing, food, housing and transportation" to summarize the most basic elements of life, and clothing shot in the forefront. Han Fei Zi said: "people without feathers, not clothing is guilty of cold", to the modern society, clothing is not only human beings used to protect the body from the cold, it is the human wisdom and civilization of the most exposed and most practical aesthetic materialization embodiment of China's first Museum of Clothing was born in 1998 in Ningbo, people have been discussing "! Dalian in the north and Ningbo in the south," the topic of China's own dragon robe, meaningful clothing changes only two times, one for the public practical hu clothing riding, the second for the declaration of the Zhongshan suit. Once upon a time, people in addition to their homes, are relying on clothes to show the status of inferiority or superiority, completely limiting the personality traits, and the emergence of Western-style clothes can reflect the vision of mankind for a sound physique, in the "five ports of commerce", out to make a living in Ningbo tailor, with a high degree of skill in ancestral crafts, to the foreigners (at that time known as the Red Hair) to make Western-style clothes, so the "Red Gang tailor", the "Red Gang", the "Red Gang", the "Red Gang", the "Red Gang", the "Red Gang", the "Red Gang". Therefore, the "red tailor" came into being, a pair of scissors, a ruler, to China's first Zhongshan suit, the first suit, the first suit store, all from the Ningbo people's hands. Ningbo clothing in the "red gang" under the cultivation of the sapling grew into a big tree. 1990s, Ningbo clothing into its golden period, the existing more than 1,600 enterprises, the annual clothing productivity accounted for about 12% of the country. Ningbo's garment industry is considered to be the future of China's garment industry in the most promising and China's garment industry to compete with a plate. Well, now we all check each other, you are wearing whether there are Ningbo clothing, if not, the night after we live down, we quickly go to buy, because in the future, perhaps you will be wearing Ningbo clothing and proud, (just kidding). Ningbo clothing brand can be said to be a group of stars, "Yagor", "Sugi", "Romo" 2001 clothing festival, the international clothing giant -At the age of 77, Mr. Pierre Cardin said emotionally.

Ningbo's second business card is "Ningbo Gang". Of course, we do not misunderstand the "gang" in the jianghu, but a lot of Ningbo people in the outside world of the collective name.

Ningbo's third business card is "Ningbo Port". Tang Dynasty, Tianbao eleven years (752), three Japanese condemnation of the Tang envoy ship from the East to China, slowly sailing into the port of Mingzhou, marking the official opening of the ancient port of Ningbo. Mingzhou Port, Tang and Song Dynasty, Guangzhou, Yangzhou, Yuan and Guangzhou Quanzhou and listed as China's three major foreign ports. And after the Opium War, Ningbo was opened as "five ports of commerce," one of the North Collar of Shanghai's rise weakened the status, had been weakened, in the fall of 1916, Mr. Sun Yat-sen with his wife, Soong Ching-ling, from Shanghai to Ningbo by boat, in the surface of the ocean through the Zhapu, had said: "I founded the country, is bound to be established here! The East's largest port", but unfortunately, the ambition is not yet hesitation, body first died. To 1978, the Chinese government formulated the policy of opening up to the outside world, made a solemn decision to build the Oriental port in Ningbo, after 20 years of hard work, Ningbo Port by a regional river port, the development of river ports, estuaries, seaports in one. The Yongjiang River is the golden waterway of Ningbo's world traffic, which is embraced by the Yao River flowing with the cultural heritage of the ancient Yue and the Fenghua River overflowing with the elegance of the Simei style, running all the way into the East China Sea. Ningbo port is divided into cargo port and fishing port, cargo port represented by Beilun Port, fishing port represented by Xiangshan Shipu Port.

Shipu Port is one of the four major fishing ports in China, connected to Zhoushan Islands, Ningbo, bordering the East China Sea, people's feelings for the sea is deep." The ocean is large, exhaustive fishing will lead to no fish, take the limitless will be nothing "'That is to say that although the ocean is vast, excessive fishing fishermen will have no fish to catch, and the ocean will not have anything there, so "treat the ocean well, is to treat human beings themselves". Therefore, there is the 2000 China's fishing festival, what is the meaning of fishing festival? What does it mean? It's when fishermen spontaneously stop fishing from July to September every year, known as the "Fishing Ban".
