I Love this video.

The only thing bad about Purple Culture was that shipping took a long time. I bought the Contemporary Chinese set for level 1 students, and I have been using it to self teach myself Chinese. I can tell that working through this series will be great as the format of the lessons, etc, is really good for learning Chinese. Purple Culture offered good prices for the books and was a 1-stop-all-inclusive place where I could buy the whole series with one order, rather than buying each textbook/character book/exercise book serperately as I would have had to on Amazon....

Now that I have had a chance to sit down and watch the China National Day 60th Anniversary Military Parade and Evening Gala, I am really impressed with what I saw. It is amazing how strong and wonderful the national patriotism of China is. This Chinese national holiday is so colorful and very well orchestrated and is filled with pride for the Chinese people and all that they have done and developed to become a modern nation. Here is a visual an example for the rest of the world to follow. I would recommend everyone watch this three CD set to get an inside view o f a very exciting nation and all that is happening there in modern times....

Very inspiring book with short, clear, no frills core recipes. Good addition to Schrecker's and Delfs' "Szechwan" books. I love it....

Exellent service! Thank You!

Excellent comprehensive book on Sichuan cuisine, the first in English developed by the Sichuan Higher Institute of Cuisine and the Sichuan Gourmet Association. Includes photos of each dish. Ordering from Purple Culture was easy and shipping from China was relatively quick. I would definitely use this site again....

I purchased the Conversational Chinese 301 Vol.1 (3rd English Edition) textbook and workbook several weeks ago. These are great materials for self-study. I have found even without teacher guidance the lessons are easy to navigate and I am having great success retaining the information presented. The included DVD is of numerous scenes acting out the dialogues from each chapter of the textbook, and it gives a nice method by which to ensure your pronunciations of pinyin text are correct, as well as providing a resource to help "tune" your ear to listening to both native and second-language speakers. I don't often order from anywhere online but Amazon because I am always worried about the profesionality of an unknown company. Communication with Purple Culture was easy and professional when I had questions regarding my order. Shipping was prompt and the materials I ordered were packed well. For full disclosure, and to avoid sound like a praise robot, I was briefly worried when I received an order placed message, but never received a shipping confirmation or tracking number days later. This was no problem since I was provided this information as soon as I sent an email asking. Just FYI. All in all I am a highly satisfied customer who is happily making strides learning my second language. Thanks!...
