龙虎山 (LongHuShan) "Dragon Tiger Mountain"

Our university was asked to send some foreigners to give 'face' to a local tourist attraction - LongHu Mountain. They are trying to get an award for the place to put themselves on the map. We were given a list of things we were to say if asked questions by any of the evaluators. The evaluators just walked past us when we saw them so it never made any difference. But we got a fully funded trip to see the place and I wouldn't have needed any help telling anyone that it was beautiful and clean there.

We were greeted with flowers at the door of our hotel.
Our boat guide seemed a bit nervous but took a picture with me.
