南寧，廣西壯族自治區(qū)的省會(huì)城市，是廣西最大的城市，也是北部灣經(jīng)濟(jì)特區(qū)的核心。它座落在廣西的西南部，與越南毗鄰。南寧總共有36個(gè)少數(shù)民族居住在這里，包括壯族，苗族，瑤族等等。南寧的人口總共是666.16萬(wàn)，其中城市人口344萬(wàn)。因?yàn)槠浯罅康纳�林覆蓋，美麗的風(fēng)景和舒適的居住環(huán)境，南寧也稱(chēng)作”綠城“。

In addition to the superior geographical environment, Nanning has gradually developed into an international metropolis.

除了優(yōu)越的地理環(huán)境外，南寧已經(jīng)逐漸發(fā)展成一座國(guó)際化大都市。2003年10月8日，溫家寶總理在印度尼西亞巴厘島第七次東盟與中國(guó)10+1領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人會(huì)議上建議，從2004年起，每年11月在中國(guó)廣西南寧舉辦中國(guó)－東盟博覽會(huì)。這一建議得到了各國(guó)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的普遍歡迎，并寫(xiě)入了會(huì)后發(fā)表的主席聲明。自2004年起，中國(guó)-東盟博覽會(huì)每年11月在廣西南寧市舉辦，給南寧乃至廣西帶來(lái)了巨大的利益。

同時(shí)，南寧也是一座旅游城市，吸引著成千上萬(wàn)名游客來(lái)旅游。他們對(duì)南寧美麗的外觀和友好的人民印象深刻。隨著國(guó)際化的深入，南寧人試圖建立一個(gè)更美麗，更和諧的城市。我相信南寧會(huì)發(fā)展得更加好。
