Article claims 10, but I counted 12. My CN geography is good enough to know that Yunnan and Sichuan are provinces, but maybe some of the proper nouns were too.

Article claims 10, but I counted 12. My CN geography is good enough to know that Yunnan and Sichuan are provinces, but maybe some of the proper nouns were too. Anyway here are the ones I counted. Any errors?
1. Kunming (Yunnan)
2. Chongqing
3. Qingdao
4. Zhengzhou
5. Xian
6. Nanjing
7. Dalian
8. Shenyang
9. Chengdu (Sichuan)
10. Qufu
11. Beijing
12. Shanghai
London, New York and Paris (not China IIRC)
Does anyone know google maps (or whatever) well enough to make a URL with markers for all these?
- sanxiyn 9y agoI think the intent is not to include Chengdu and Qufu. Chengdu is not described as a destination (just for cuisine), and Qufu is not a megacity.
- daxfohl 9y agoHaha, Chengdu is the only one I've been to (having been lots of other places in China). Oh, okay Beijing too...fine. Best cuisine? Frankly I liked the old Hui stronghold of Ningxia the best. Plain old noodle soup, but to perfection every time. And very good who-knows-what-that-might-be-but-who-cares-its-delicious satay all around. Chengdu would be a close second though. While I respect the culinary history of China, IMO SE Asia and India both blow all regions of China out of the water. (Though Taiwan, if you think of it as part of China, being my first ever overseas habitat, holds a bit of a soft spot in my cuisinitude).
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoChengdu is a great city to visit, if only as a starting to point to sichuan's awesome Tibetan highlands (and see the pandas on the way out). I'm not really into Chinese cities in general, they seem to blend together in typical ways. They are just spring boards to the real adventures.
