2005 Taicang Exhibition - Official Visit to Zhou Zhuang - Floating City of China 2005年太仓邮展，周庄水乡一游

An official tour organised for the 2005 Taicang "600th Anniversary of 1st voyage of Zheng He" Philatelic Exhibition delegates was a visit to the floating city of Zhou Zhuang. The town of which is surrounded with numerous canals, passages are by boats or bridges. Glad to find this Chinese Calligraphy writing framed and hung in one corner of the Zhou Zhuang which was written by the renown American  Architect L.M. Pei who visited the place on 6.9.1999. Architect l.M.Pei described Zhou Zhuang as a National Treasure.

2005年参与中国太仓“郑和首航600周年纪念邮展”，主办当局安排到水乡周庄一游。周庄四周环绕着的是水道，唯一交通是船和架空的桥梁。以上是一幅由世界顶尖美籍华裔建筑师贝聿铭所题的字吸引了我的注意力，它就挂在周庄的一个角落，字并不抢眼，贝聿铭其名确比其字来得响亮。贝先生把周庄形容为国宝。
