Exhibit 31.1

                                 CERTIFICATIONS

I, Lu Pingji, certify that:

1.         I have reviewed this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of China Housing &
           Land Development, Inc.;

2.         Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue
           statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
           necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances
           under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to
           the period covered by this report;

3.         Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
           information included in this report, fairly present in all material
           respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash
           flows of the small business issuer as of, and for, the periods
           presented in this report;

4.         The small business issuer's other certifying officer and I are
           responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and
           procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e))
           for the small business issuer and have:

a)         designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
           disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our
           supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the
           small business issuer, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is
           made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during
           the period in which this report is being prepared;

b)         evaluated the effectiveness of the small business issuer's disclosure
           controls and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions
           about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as
           of the end of the period covered by this report based on such
           evaluation; and

c)         disclosed in this report any changes in the small business issuer's
           internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the
           small business issuer's most recent fiscal quarter (the small
           business issuer's fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual
           report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
           materially affect, the small business issuer's internal control over
           financial reporting;

5.         The small business issuer's other certifying officer and I have
           disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control
           over financial reporting, to the small business issuer's auditors and
           the audit committee of small business issuer's board of directors (or
           persons performing the equivalent functions):

a)         all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
           operation of internal control over financial reporting which are
           reasonably likely to adversely affect the small business issuer's
           ability to record, process, summarize and report financial
           information; and

b)         any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
           employees who have a significant role in the small business issuer's
           internal control over financial reporting.
