Nora is in the Wanzhou Social Welfare Institute, located about 350 kilometers northeast of the capital city of Chongqing. Wanzhou is a small, mountainous city, known as "the gateway to East Sichuan." Apparently, Wanzhou is a big agricultural area, known for its peaches, tangerines, and oranges, as well as silk spinning and weaving.
The big tourist attraction is the acrobatic show! There is also a farmers market where local crafts are sold. We SO wish we could visit! We might not get to visit the SWI, but I think we'll try to visit Wanzhou in any case. It will probably be our only opportunity to see where Nora was born. I've read that we can take a cruise to Wanzhou from Chongqing; if we have time, we'll certainly do that! It looks beautiful.
