Liu Bi (Jadyn) lives in Gui Yang !

I Googled some information on this city and found - Guiyang City, capital of Guizhou Province is located in the southwest of China, on the eastern side of the Yungui Plateau. It is said that in ancient times, Guiyang was surrounded by dense bamboo groves and was famous for producing a musical instrument known as a Zhu. Hence the city is known also as Zhu.

Guiyang is one of China's Spring Cities like Kunming . The climate is often mild and moist, neither extremely hot nor very cold. Spring, summer and autumn are the best seasons for visiting Guiyang.

Right now, the temperatures seem to be ranging from a low of 50 degrees at night to a high of about 80 degrees during the day.

Here are some more pictures from the city and province:
