We would like to invite you to The 10th Internatinal Conference on Ferrites (ICF10) to be held from 10th to 14th October, 2008 at Chengdu Int??l Exhibition and Convention Center in Chengdu, China.

It??s the first time in China and of huge significance under the condition that the economic development of China today is attracting more and more attention from the world and of which the demand for advanced materials and new material technologies are increasing rapidly.

The nine previous conferences were held in Kyoto, Japan (1970, 1980, and 2000), Tokyo, Japan (1992), Bellevue, France (1976), San Francisco, U.S.A. (1984), Bombay, India (1989), and Bordeaux, France (1996), Japan (2000), U.S.A (2004).

The 2008 International Conference on Ferrite??ICF10??will serve as a platform for all involved in magnetic materials, through which they can intensify the communication and cooperation with international ferrite material circles and speed up the R&D, equipment manufacture, industrialization of materials and talent education.

Sightseeing??????????????Free of charge

On Monday , from 14:00 to 18:00, a sightseeing tour , visiting Sanxingdui Ruins Sites.There will be a lunch included.Visiting Sanxingdui Ruins Sites(about 40 km north of Chengdu). You can have a knowledge of ancient culture of 3000 years ago at Sanxingdui Ruins Sites.

     Introduction to Sanxingdui Museum

Situated in the northeast of the state-protected Sanxingdui Site by the bank of the Yazi River in Guanghan---a city famed for its long history and splendid culture, Sanxingdui Museum is a modern theme museum which is 40 kilometers to the north of Chengdu.

Covering a total area of 530 yields, in which 11000 square meters serve as the main tableaus for the exhibits, Sanxingdui Museum had its foundation laid in August 1992, and opened to the public in October 1997. Integrating collection, preservation, academic research and social education all in one, the museum showcases kinds of precious cultural relics unearthed at Sanxingdui Site.

The cultural relics at Sanxingdui are precious cultural heritage of mankind, which contain rich historical, cultural and scientific value, and bespeak themselves as the most attractive ones amongst the multitude of the spectacular relics in China. Amongst the hoards of prize antiquities there are a variety of unique, grotesque bronzes, such as 2.62-meter-tall standing statue, 1.38-meter-wide bronze mask, 3.95-meter-high bronze tree, all of which stand out as treasures unparalleled. In addition, the gold ware represented by the gleaming gold scepter, and jade ware such as the blades with heavy motif, turn out to be undeniable rare jewels never seen before.

The section on Ancient City, Ancient State and Ancient Shu Culture is the main exhibition in the museum, which is arranged in such a novel, creative manner that space and voids are interconnected by utilizing various latest means of demonstration, whereby the implication of the relics are tapped to the full extent, and a perfect combination of popularized display and artistic style of the artifacts is achieved. The museum honored the prize at one of the first ten excellent national exhibitions.

The main building of the museum stands erect in pursuit of fitting its contour with the landform, the historical site and the shapes of the relics while blending primitivism with modernism; the surroundings of the museum are arranged in an ingenious layout. Now there are a serene lake and lush lawn, and now here are isles reflected in the lake, all in a unique setting with flora at all seasons. One can catch such views at a glance.

Featured for its relics, architecture, demonstration and gardens, the museum has become a place of cultural and tourist attractions enjoying prestige both at home and abroad and one of the three exquisite spots Sichuan has offered to the world tourism. Moreover, it is the first museum that has been certified both ??Green Globe 21?? and ISO9000.

 

Technical Visit??????????????Free of charge

On Monday, from 8:30 to 12:00, visiting Chengdu Galaxy Magnets Company Limited (the world important manufacturer for bonded NdFeB magnets) and University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (main research organization in China for magnetism and magnetic materials and devices) will be arranged.

 

Sightseeing(option)????????Fee: $280 (4 days)

Visiting Jiuzhaigou Natural Reserve (about 440 km northwest of Chengdu).

Jiuzhaigou Ravine located in Nanping County, Aba Tibetan-Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Jiuzhaigou Ravine stretches 80 kilometers in one direction and takes up an area of more than 60,000 hectares. The area consists of  six scenic spots????Changhai, Jianyan, Nuorilang, Shuzheng, Zharu and Heihai. It becomes a world renowned scenic spot because of its diversity in natural scenery which includes snowy peaks, double waterfalls, colorful forests and green sea. Furthermore, Tibetan customs are another attraction. It was listed as a world heritage site in 1992.

The Ravine boasts a number of unique features. The mountains, lakes, natural primeval forest, beautiful flowers all  make Jiuzhaigou a fairyland. Mountains   ranging 1,980 to about 3,100 meters in height are covered by a variety of trees and  plants such as green conifers, luxuriant broadleaf trees and colorful rare flowers and grasses. Scenes change according to the season and the area is particularly colorful in autumn when the wind makes kilometers of tree belt along the lake undulate like a sea wave. Waterfalls, lakes, springs, rivers and shoals add to color and the green trees, red leaves, snowy peaks and blue skies are reflected from lakes and rivers. Trees grow in the water and flowers blossom in the middle of lakes. 

The Shuzheng Scenic Spot is one of the central point of Jiuzhaigou's landscape. With 40 lakes which extend five kilometers along a valley, the spot covers an area of three square kilometers. The lakes vary in color according to their depths, residues and scenery around them. Among which, Reed Lake is an ideal habitat of birds; Spark Lake appears to move while the jade-like Rhinoceros Lake is a good place for rowing, swimming and rafting. There are also the Shuzheng Waterfalls which have a backdrop of trees. 

Nuorilang Scenic Area extends from the Nuorilang Waterfalls to Zhuhai, an area of three square kilometers. The 320-meter-wide Pearl Beach Waterfall and the   Five-Color Lake which has a richly colored underwater landscape.

The Sword-Shaped Rock Scenic Area consists of  Goose Lake, Suspended Springs, Sword  Rock, snow-covered Mountains and primeval forests. Sometimes you can see giant pandas. There is also the 17.8-kilometer Zechawa Ravine, the longest and highest in Jiuzhaigou. At the end of it is the eight-kilometer-long Changhai Lake, the largest in the area. In Haizi there is a Five-Color Pond, the brightest lake in Jiuzhaigou.

Undoubtedly, the magnificent view in Jiuzhaigou will make you reluctant to leave,  and don't forget that the autumn is the best season to visit it.

 

Sightseeing(option) ?????? Fee: $200 (3 days)

Visiting Mount Emeishan Scenic Area(about 169km southwest of Chengdu).

 Mt. Emeishan is located to the southwest of Leshan City and is one of China's four mountains sacred to Buddhism. It is regarded as the 'wonderland of celestial being' and many scenic spots here are worthy of a visit.There are Four Scenic Regions: Baoguo Temple, Wannian Temple, Qingyin Pavilion, and Golden Summit. From the Golden Summit, tourists can experience the magic of the 'Buddha Rays' which can be viewed between 14:00 to 18:00 during fine weather in autumn and winter. When you climb Emeishan Mountain, you will find dangerous paths, steep rocks, surprising springs and waterfalls. These all may give you the feeling that your journey is as difficult as reaching for the sky. However, you are sure to be delighted by the flocks of monkeys on Mt. Emeishan as they are very lovely and well-mannered. When the tourists give food to them, they pick it up turn and turn about and never squabble to be first.

Mt. Emei is well-known for its enjoyable natural scenery, extensive Buddhist culture, abundant range of species and unique landform. Thus it gets such titles as 'Kingdom of Plants', 'Geological Museum', 'Animals' Paradise' and 'Buddhist Celestial Mountain'.

 

      We can help to contact with touring groups. Accompanying persons can enjoy the pleasure of tour and feelings of Chinese cultrue.

 

    There will be brief introductions and exhibition for some factories nearby during the period of conference.
