Ubaid Malik is a Pakistani student who has been studying in Sichuan for three years and finds the province interesting due to the big modern cities such as its capital city Chengdu as well as beautiful nature views.

"The food is great! I love spices and Sichuan is really a good place to taste delicacies. The lifestyle in Sichuan is also quite comfortable. Unlike Beijing and Shanghai and other China's mega cities, the life in Chengdu is comparably slow and people are not as busy. You can always find crowds waiting in front of restaurants or playing mahjong. I like photography so that’s why anywhere I go I take photos."
