Chinatown is the name given to an area in the middle of London． It is a large Chinese community with a lot of Chinese restaurants， supermarkets and shops．
In the 1950s， it was a poor area and everything was very cheap． At the same time， the world rice market changed and thousands of farm workers in Hong Kong lost their jobs． They began arriving in London to look for work． They found jobs in the restaurants in this area．

Thousands of years ago， Shennong， who had an ox（牛）head and human body， lived in the south of ancient China． Seeing that local people were suffering from disease， he built ladders（梯子）and houses on a high mountain to store medical plants． To remember him， people named the place Shennongjia．
The story makes Shennongjia in Hubei an inviting place for tourists． Traveling there is a quite different experience， as you can see sceneries（风景）of the four seasons from different height．"When the bottom of the mountain is summer， the top is spring and while the foothill is autumn， the top is covered with ice，" local people say of the special climate of Shennongjia．
