Where am I going?


Many people have been asking what city I am going to be teaching in. Since most people have no clue where Xinzheng is, I usually say it's a rural city in central China. It is located in Henan Province. Zhengzhou, the capital city of Henan Province, is an hour flight from Beijing and an hour and a half from Shanghai. Xinzheng is about another hour drive from Zhengzhou.

Here is a little more detail about where I will be living in China:
  • Henan Province is the most populous province in China.
  • Henan is the birthplace of the first emperor of China.
  • It is also the birthplace of Chinese kung fu.
  • The famous Shaolin Temple is located here.
  • Sias International University is the first American owned University in China.
