More Information on Nanjing/Yizheng
Nanjing is an ancient city located on the Yangtze River in eastern China. It has been the capital many times in the country’s history (Nanjing literally translates to “southern capital”) and today is one of the major cities in the eastern region. Nanjing (and Yizheng) had a history as an industrial city, and although that industry decreased, there are still plenty of huge corporations (both civilian and state-run) which are based in the city. Mandarin is spoken in Nanjing (although there is also a local dialect). Expats can find it hard to learn Mandarin, but after a few months of learning you will be able to pick it up. Nanjing has a humid and damp climate, but the summers are not too hot nor are the winters extremely cold. This is a city on the rise: make the most of your time in Nanjing/Yizheng with InterNations.
