Marcella Caprario, postdoctoral fellow at ELE, accompanied a student tour group to Dongguan, Guangdong Province, China

 

Marcella Caprario, postdoctoral fellow at ELE, accompanied a student tour group to Dongguan, Guangdong Province, China. They visited the Opium War Museum, Sea Battle Museum, Ke Yuan classical garden, Lukka (LiJia) Packaging and Printing Industrial Park, and Xixi ancient village.

 

The two museums provided excellent explanations of the Opium Wars and the importance of Dongguan in fighting the smugglers. Ke Yuan and Xixi showed the classical history and beauty of the area. Lukka provided context around the industrial boom in Dongguan and the entrepreneurial development of this company.

The 2-day tour gave a well-rounded account of the history of the area through different periods. The students learned a lot and everyone had a great time!
