Suichang County (Chinese: 遂昌县; pinyin: Suíchāng Xiàn) in Lishui Prefecture Level City Zhejiang Province, China,
Suichang is probably best known for the place that Tang Xianzu wrote his most famous play "The Peony Pavilion" (Chinese: 牡丹亭; pinyin: Mŭdan Tíng) about five hundred years ago in Ming Dynasty. Tang Xianzu is regarded as "Shakespeare in the Orient" for his masterpiece. Tang served as Suichang county top official for 3 years and left legendary stories there that still passed on by generations. Today's Suichang county has entered modern society with vehicles, highways connecting to capital city of Hangzhou, and most renowned for its bamboo forest and natural sceneries such as White Horse Mountain (Bai Ma Shan) and Nine Dragon Mountain (Jiu Long Shan) which recorded as one of the site where wild humans were said to be present in the '50s and '60s of 20th Century.
According to a scientific study from Nanjing Agricultural University, some heavy metals including cadmium were found in rice farming fields around Suichang and Wenzhou. (source: http://english.caing.com/2011-02-16/100226177_1.html)
