Suichang County
Suichang County in Zhejiang Province, China, is probably best known for the place that Tang Xianzu wrote his most famous play "The Peony Pavilion" about five hundred years ago in Ming Dynasty. Tang Xianzu is regarded as "Shakespeare in the Orient" for his masterpiece. Tang served as Suichang county top official for 3 years and left legendary stories there that still passed on by generations. Today's Suichang county has entered modern society with vehicles, highways connecting to capital city of Hangzhou, and most renowned for its bamboo forest and natural sceneries such as White Horse Mountain and Nine Dragon Mountain which recorded as one of the site where wild humans were said to be present in the '50s and '60s of 20th Century.
