Observer Viewfinder comp. The prize is a Sony W170 digital camera, worth £219.
Forty-two percent of this city is covered in water, and the lakes, canals, streams and world-famous classical gardens give it an air of tranquillity not often found in this frenetic country. The city dates back more than 2500 years and was once a centre of silk production; it is still famous for its intricate embroidery. Name the city.
Ans - Suzhou, China (there is actually more than one - this one is in Jiangsu province, but it should suffice to say Suzhou)
Email answers to [EMAIL="viewfinder@observer.co.uk"]viewfinder@observer.co.uk[/EMAIL] with your address and phone number by Wednesday. (Alternatively, send a postcard to Viewfinder, The Observer, 3-7 Herbal Hill, London, EC1R 5EJ.)
Good luck.
You can thank mr kateab for this one as he found the answer whilst I made an apple pie.

I actually made it for me and the children - mr kateab doesn't eat pie cos he's wheat intolerant. However, he is waiting on a nice baked apple that is in the oven, for his pudding after the roast chicken that is currently resting!

PS and I went into the kitchen to find the apple had exploded in the oven..... it made mr kateab laugh anyway.Definitely NOT the blogger at Katie and the Kids, OK?0 -
