This is a rare honor in the world. Cambridge has been described with admiration as "the cradle of the natural sciences".
Cambridge is the name of a place synthesized by transliteration and meaning. English Cambridge pronounced "Cambridge", bridge is the meaning of the bridge, Cam in Fujian and Guangdong dialects sound like "sword". It is also known as Kangqiao (according to the combination of phonetic and Italian translation in Mandarin). There is indeed a Jian River here, which flows in an arc around the city to the northeast. Many bridges were built over the river, so the city was named Cambridge.
