Jilin Normal University (Siping/Changchun, Jilin)

Siping city, Jilin province

Standing in the center of the Songliao Plain, southwest of Jilin Province, Siping is located at the convergence of Jilin, Liaoning and Inner Mongolia. It is bordered by Changchun, the capital city of Jilin to the northeast. Since Siping is the only way for Jilin, Heilongjiang and the eastern part of Inner Mongolia to the coastal port and the nearest city around the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea, it plays a role of an important transportation hub in northeast China. Thanks to low transportation costs, the modern commercial logistics industry is booming in this city. Siping is known as one of the birthplaces of the Manchu. If you want to know more about Manchu, you cannot miss the Yehe Ancient City where you can learn about history of Manchu Yehe tribute, Manchu folk art and costumes. Many Manchu cultural relics are displayed in Yitong Manchu Folk Museum. In addition, Siping is a national key commodity grain production base in China, being awarded one of three granaries in northeast China.
