Due to research requirements, I had a study\nand exchange at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (NUAA) for\nover two weeks and also attended the Far East Non-Destructive Testing Forum.\nThe first stop of my trip to China was Nanjing, where I was also accompanied by Mr.\nAmano. We arrived at Nanjing Lukou Airport on the afternoon of May 28th. As one\nof China’s famous “Three Furnaces,” Nanjing had noticeably higher\ntemperatures compared to Sendai. I would like to express my gratitude to\nProfessor Ge for personally picking us up and driving us to NUAA. It had been\ntwo years since we last met, and Dr. Ge had visibly lost weight, presumably due\nto having a child (\u25cf\u2019\u25e1\u2019\u25cf). Dr. Ge and his student, Xu Fei, arranged accommodation for us in\nthe international student apartment. It was a beautiful and spacious house\nequipped with daily necessities. During dinner time, Dr. Ge took us to a famous\n“Lanzhou Ramen” restaurant. It is said that in northern China, it is\ncustomary for the first meal to be noodles. As a person from the south, I found\nit quite fascinating. To our delight, we also had the opportunity to meet our\nsenior colleague, Chen Guanren, whom we hadn’t seen for two years. He brought a\nkind of famous Chinese liquorcalled “Xifeng” Baijiu. This baijiu has\na higher alcohol content, but Mr. Amano said he could handle it. It was a\ndelightful dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next day, Dr. Ge took us to the old campus of NUAA (we were staying in the new campus area). It was quite fascinating to see a retired large aircraft parked on the school grounds, attracting everyone’s attention. After touring the campus, I had the chance to enjoy a nostalgic Chinese campus lunch in the cafeteria. The meals were surprisingly affordable, costing only around 500 yen in total. In the following days, we visited the laboratories of Dr. Ge and Dr. Li and had academic exchange meetings. During our stay, we conducted experiments on stress testing, which was different from our previous research on defect detection and quite interesting. We also got to know many Chinese students in the laboratory who were very curious about studying and living in Japan. Some of them even expressed their interest in studying abroad in Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While visiting and studying at NUAA, we also\nexplored the Nanjing city. As the most famous attractions in Nanjing, Confucius\nTemple and Qinhuai River were definitely must-see places. Additionally, I\nvisited Niushoushan and Jinling Xiaocheng. Although these two attractions were\nman-made, they were incredibly beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before Tanno-kun’s departure, Dr. Ge warmly arranged for us\nto have a taste of Huaiyang cuisine, a traditional delicacy in Nanjing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next was my trip to Tianjin to attend the Far East NDT\nForum. The conference took place at a five-star hotel, the Hengda Hotel. It was\nmy first time staying at a five-star hotel, and the room was incredibly\nspacious and luxurious. Although I regret not giving a presentation at the\nconference, I had the opportunity to listen to various reports on\nnon-destructive testing methods and learn about the mainstream non-destructive\ntesting instruments available in the Chinese market. Moreover, it was my first\ntime attending a banquet during an offline conference, where I had the chance\nto meet many Chinese researchers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a wonderful three-week trip to China. Upon returning, I need to prepare myself in a more energetic state for my final thesis defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
