"As a thriving and competitive province in China, Zhejiang has a population of 56 million, ranking 10th among provinces in the country, but the household disposable income in Zhejiang province is far ahead of that in other provinces, except for Beijing and Shanghai. There are no other provinces with more Mercedes and BMWs than Zhejiang, which might be a proof of its strong economy.

Meanwhile, other three large cities in the province, Ningbo, Shaoxing and Taizhou, rank in the top 10."--Provided by publisher.
