Surrounded by hills and mountains on three sides, coastal city Fuzhou is the capital of Fujian province, southeast China. Boasting rich cultural and historical heritages, the capital is more popular with its nickname: Banyan city, as numerous banyan trees are planted all over the city, providing shade for citizens along roads and streets. With the Minjiang River flowing through the city, Fuzhou enjoys a favorable climate and high rainfall, which gives Fuzhou a natural advantage in greening and building itself an ecological-friendly city. During the past years, on the call of green development and ecological protection, the city has been actively promoting continuous environmental improvement. Unique parks have been built and new footpaths have been paved to improve the city's livability and living standards for citizens. So far, the local forest coverage rate has reached 58.36%, ranking second among capital cities nationwide. (Xinhua/Jiang Kehong)
