Let life be beautiful like summer flowers - a Hangzhou glance

It is commonly known that Hangzhou is a livable city for human beings. What is it like for others? --Today we will highlight another side of Hangzhou at the city botanical garden and zoo.Hangzhou Botanical Garden is adjacent to the ZJU Yuquan Campus, which only takes a 5 minutes walk from the south gate. The garden has a wonderful environment filled with fragrance of flowers and birds' twitter. It is blessed to have such a natural oxygen bar in the downtown area. Walking along the stone path, the winding streams murmur around you with fish shuttling between the stones. The distant peaks are partly visible among the lush vegetation with reflection in the crystal clear water.Because of the excellent ecological environment, all kinds of cherished birds take here as their home, attracting photography enthusiasts all over the city to capture pictures with all kinds of cameras.It is a paradise for children and is very suitable for family outings. Children are excited to stay at the lakes and interact with fish as if they use the same language. It is a good chance to experience the vitality and charm of nature.Moreover, you cannot miss the moment wandering in the sculptures and paintings that of miraculous creation at the Han Meilin Art Gallery in the park. Mr. Han is famous for his design of Beijing Olympic Games Mascot, Fuwa.Finally, you come to Yuquan Fish Leap, one of the most famous attractions in the garden, and even the Yuquan Campus was named after it. Big fish slowly swim in the water, just like the city that well manages her own pace between development and leisure.Hangzhou Zoo is next to the Tiger Run Park, a little further away from the campus. It takes about 20 minutes driving along the Yanggong Dike.Compared with the quiet botanical garden, here it is more likely to make friends of different species. Lions, tigers, leopards, wolves, elephants, giraffes, alpacas, brown bears, reptiles and rare birds  are all gathered like a tiny world next door.Pandas, our national treasure, are undoubtedly the biggest stars of the zoo. The panda hall is usually overflowed with tourists, with children sitting on the shoulders of parents merely for a glance. Our national treasures in contrary, sit in the corner at ease and hold fresh bamboo without a break as if no one exists.With regard to the biggest star in water, sea lions are second to none. They seem to understand human feelings. Besides taking an individual photo with her, you will get a gentle kiss on cheek if lucky.April 22 is the Earth Day. In Hangzhou, humanity and natural landscape are perfectly integrated, and you can truly feel the harmony between man and nature. It is a lovely home for not only human beings but also diverse creatures. In its arms, we College of Control Science and Engineering, Zhejiang University has also been committed to energy conservation and emission reduction for promoting sustainable development. Why don’t you come and take a personal look at it? Reporter & Photo: YU HongxiangEditor: WANG Jing

Season for cherry blossoms

Flowers bloom in springtime, and one of the most intoxicating ones are cherry blossoms. -- Is there any attraction to enjoy cherry blossoms close at hand?You might think of the Prince Bay Park, where the cherry blossoms there are like rosy clouds, and form a beautiful scenery together with the streams. Or the Breeze-ruffled Lotus beside the West Lake, you might think. However, neither of them can we walk there in 10 minutes. Photo: YU HongxiangIn fact, in Yuquan Campus there is a forest  of cherry blossoms right here under your nose, just between the CSE Institute of Cyber-Systems and Control (CSC) and CSE Old Building.Photo: NI YinjiePhoto: CAO ZhengStanding in the forest, the pink petals hover over the top of the head. Within the flower cluster, industrious bees are working collecting nectar. The forest has attracted many students, teachers and citizens to take pictures.Photo: PAN YangSelect a sunny weekend, you can rug the blanket and have a picnic under the flowers. Have fun by eating sandwiches and enjoying the sunshine that falls through the petals at the same time. Photo: YU HongxiangStudents are embracing graduation in this season. Graduates take group photos in the cherry blossoms, capturing the most beautiful commemoration of campus life.Photo: YU HongxiangThe terrace on the third floor of the CSC Institute is also a wonderful place to enjoy blossoms. Looking down, the white wave of flowers is dotted with pink. If you look far into the distance, the forest is integrated with the mountain, as if you are in a paradise.Photo: YU HongxiangAt the end of March, it still rains a lot in Hangzhou. After a spring rain, the flowers fall all over the lawn. Stepping on the carpet made of blossoms, it seems to be in a fairytale.Photo: YU HongxiangWe meet every flower once in our lifetime. Come to Yuquan, cherish this breath-taking moment with us and look forward to the next blossom.Reporter: YU HongxiangEditor: WANG Jing

"2019, CSE Everlasting" --CSE held New Year's Party

On December 24, 2018, the New Year’s Party of the College of Control Science and Engineering (CSE), Zhejiang University revealed itself in Yongqian Auditorium, Yuquan Campus, for the grand celebration for the incoming year 2019. Because the number 9 in Chinese has the same pronunciation as the word “everlasting”, the party was themed "2019, CSE Everlasting" with long-lasting wishes. Representatives from the sponsor Phoenix Contact (China) Holding., Ltd, the CSE leadership, faculty members and nearly a thousand graduate and undergraduate students attended the big event to savor this precious moment. Meanwhile, students who won the Phoenix special scholarship were officially awarded at site. Prof. SHAO Zhijiang, the Dean of CSE, delivered the opening speech, expressing a warm welcome and glorious expectation to everyone. Then together with the company representatives, the college leadership awarded the two undergraduate students winning the Phoenix Special Scholarship, i.e. WU Rumeng and ZHAI Ruikun, as well as other ten students with Phoenix Scholarship, namly LIU Moya, DAI Yunxiang, SHEN Ziyan, ZHOU Wenhao, TANG Li, SHEN Ying, LU Pengcheng, MA Huifang and QIN Yazhou. The Vice President of Phoenix Contact (China), Miao Jinghong addressed a speech at the awarding ceremony, expressing her sincere gladness and wishes.   Various programs depicted a colorful panorama of the green days on campus. Every audience immersed into the vivid performance flashing back the life moments passed in 2018, no matter it was in study or daily life, and no matter it was filled with joys or tears. Through all these delights everyone waved goodbye at the passed year and looked ahead into a new one. As the opening show, the "Bboom Bboom" with ardent dance and popping rhythm instantly beat everyone’s heart, and gave an excellent beginning of the following exciting repertoire. Besides remarkable scientific achievements that we knew in ordinary days, students outstood in terms of art on the stage. Performers showed dazzling singing and dancing, as well as extraordinary skills in instruments-playing. Acapella by La Band Basso Semitone, Belly Dance full of Central Asia Style, piano music joined by conventional Chinese instrument Erhu and series of vocal solo enriched the aesthetic enjoyment for the audience. Faculty members also presented great art talents that rarely seen in serious academic atmosphere. Both the solo from Mr. CAO Zheng and the touching chorus of ZMART, the team of aerial robotics led by Dr. XU Chao and Dr. ZHANG Yu who won the IARC 7th mission world championship，received long-lasting applause. Moreover, the grand chorus "We Are Family" of the faculty representatives reached the deep sense of belonging for the college at the bottom of everyone’s heart, which definitely crowned the evening. In addition to all these above, there were plenty of cunning programs with innovative ideas. The student magician ZHANG Pufan played a prophet, accurately predicting the clothing of an incoming student who was randomly chosen and her answer to say. In the shadow dance "Home" created by undergraduate Class1701, performers postured behind a curtain, showing the audience the famous idiom “Home Sweet Home”. The evening event left with a perfect ending where everyone was impressed after the delicate performance which lasted for over 200 minutes. The success of the evening was forged by every planner, volunteer and actor, and tempered by the infinite support from the entire college. Indeed, it reflects the warmth and unity of the CSE family. On the edge of new year, let us make wishes at the one and only “2019, CSE Everlasting”, hoping every teacher and student all the best, striving for a better CSE and embracing a magnificent 2019!  Reporter: WANG ZhichengPhoto: XIN Shuo, TAO XinyuEditor: WANG Jing
