Q: Places on Chinese paper money?

Following on from dokkens question, and Hal195's excellent answer.

Where in China, are the scenes depicted on Chinese paper money?

I will start with 20rmb... Xingping, between Guillin and Yangshou. One of my favourite places.

100rmb is Great hall of the people in Beijing, opposite the Tian'anmen square. 50rmb is the Potala Palace in Tibet. 10rmb is kuimen, the" west gate" of The Three Gorges in Chongqing Province. 5rmb is Mount Tai in Shandong Province. 1rmb is Three Pools Mirroring the Moon, one of the scenic spots of West Lake, Hangzhou Province.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
