There are so many options for you.

A. Beijing
If you like traditional Chinese culture, I suggest Beijing. It is the capital of the nation, a political and cultural center. You can go visit Great Wall, Summer Palace etc. Besides, it is going to be an international city soon. oh..Olympic Games will be held in BJ in 2008. I guess so many people will come and have a visit.

B. Shenzhen or Guangzhou
Geographically, the two cities are in the south of China and near HK. If you like hot weather and southern scenery, you can go there. Shenzhen is a very international city.  A friend of mine once said it is not China at all. But it has good atmosphere, very practical, very young, and even a little marginal. Guangzhou has a long history. Cantonese is the local language. It is moist, hot, and an excellent place to start a business.

C. Shanghai
Shanghai is already an international city. It is big, modern, and edgy. It can be said to be a financial and commercial center of China. Many foreigners go there. Good place.

D. Chengdu
Chengdu is in the southeast of China. It is the capital of Sichuan province, which is also called “a paradise “. There is no hurry, no rush, and very pleasure to live in.  Sichuan dishes are famous home and aboard, especially the hot-pot. Chengdu is developing very fast recent years.

Of course there are so many cities to tell, like Dalian, Qingdao, Yangsuo, Kunshan, Ningbo, Wuhan, Changsha, Chongqing etc. So you see it depends on your intention. And every city has its own characters. You know what? You can have a round-China travel if condition permits. Then you can find out which city is in your dream and happily settle down.

Guilin (Chinese: 桂林; pinyin: Guìlín) is a city in China, situated in the northeast of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on the west bank of the Li River. Its name means "forest of Sweet Osmanthus", owing to the large number of fragrant Sweet Osmanthus trees located in the city. The city has long been renowned for its unique scenery.
