I was talking with a friend of mine in 武汉 the other day. She said even though 武汉 is such a huge city, she could still find places to escape all the noise. She used the following chengyu: 闹中取静。 She said it means to find peace within a chaotic environment. I think it's a beautiful chengyu, but I'm not really sure how to use it in a sentence. Can someone give me an example please? :)

@华金,

对,这个成语非常好。你可以说“这座楼虽然建在市中心,但是闹中取静,一点儿也不吵” (Although this building is in the city center, but 闹中取静, so it's not noisy at all.)
