Thanks to a combination of young businessmen, large numbers of university students and revitalization (新生) efforts by the local and national governments, today’s Nanjing has an
1
of youthful exuberance (繁茂) that would have been
2

3
, the city, a booming city of 6.5 million on the banks of the Yangtze River some 185 miles west of Shanghai, bears
4
resemblance to the former capital of China that suffered the worst cruelty and violence of World War II.
5
Nanjing has shown a remarkable capacity for reinvention during its 2,500-year history. And in recent years, the city has moved
6

9
travel time between the cities from several hours to just 75 minutes, and a Beijing-Shanghai high-speed line is

16
offices, restaurants and an InterContinental hotel, the tower is the second-tallest building in China and billed as the seventh-tallest in the world.
Underlying all this development is a large Chinese and
17
student population — there are several major universities, plus a branch of Johns Hopkins’s international studies school. In fact, art and music
18
in all sorts of places.
On a larger
19
, local government officials and private investors are pushing the city as a rising center for contemporary art and architecture, hoping to attract
20
from the neon-bathed streets of its neighbor Shanghai.
