EG Multimedia'2004 in Nanjing, China: Many reasons for attendingThe workshop will be held at Nanjing University, one of the most famous universities of China, with a history of about 102 years. The Nanjing University is located in the Nanjing City, the Capital of Jiangsu Province. Present day Nanjing, with tens of universities and hundreds of high-tech companies, ranks fifth among the "50 strongest" of Chinese cities. It is a transport and telecommunication hub in East China, and the second largest international trade port after Shanghai in the Yangzi River Delta. Like a bright pearl inlayed in the Yangtze River, Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu Province, an important political and economical center, boasts of its ancient culture, unique topography and picturesque landscape. Known as Metropolis of 10 Dynasties, it has a long history of over 2000 years. With the Purple Mountain to the east (likened to a coiling dragon) and Stone Citadel to the west (likened to a crouching tiger), the city assumes a strategic importance. A perfect combination of culture and natural landscape, Nanjing attracts millions of Chinese and overseas tourists each year with more than 50 famous places of interest. Bestowed with numerous wellknown historical sites, like Dr. Sun Yatsen's Maus which oleum, Confucius Temple, the Citadels of Zhonghua Gate, the Ming Tomb, Linggu Temple, Qixia Temple, Rainflower Terrace, it also presents the beautiful scenery of the Qinhuai River, Qixia Mountain, Purple Mountain, Xuanwu Lake and Mochou(Worrynot) Lake. The advanced transportation enables people to travel conveniently to major Chinese cities.
