A survey of Hunan
Hunan province, located in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, covering a total area of 211,800 k㎡.It is bordered by Jiangxi Province on the east, Guangdong Province and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on the south, Guizhou Province on the west and Hubei Province on the north.The bulk of its territory lies south of the Dongting Lake, hence its name “Hunan”(“South of the Lake”).
As the Xiang River, the longest river within its boundaries, runs through it from south to north, the province is called “Xiang” for short; and thus we have “Xiang Cuisine”, “Xiang Embroidery”, “Xiang Opera”, “Xiang Culture” and “Xiang Army”.There in the province used to grow lotus flowers in profusion, thus it has been reputed as “the Land of Lotus Blooms”.
A subtropical area, Hunan has a humid climate, which is characterized by a clear distinction between seasons and a rather short period of severe cold.Each year it has a moderate rainfall of 1,200-1,700 mm., a sufficient sunshine time of 1,300-1,900 hours and a frost-free period of 270-310 days, which are all favorable to the growth of subtropical crops.
The province is generally divided into four geographical regions: North Hunan, Central Hunan, South Hunan and West Hunan.Changsha, a medium-sized city on the Xiang River, is the provincial capital.
