Dali: A poetic residence between Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake
Dali is a city that makes people yearn for it. It has magnificent natural scenery and unique Bai culture. As a photography enthusiast, I am deeply attracted by the beauty of Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake. **The water quality of Erhai Lake is crystal clear.**  It is the most pleasant enjoyment to take a boat tour and enjoy the lake and mountains. The ancient city of Dali is well preserved, and the Bai dwellings, the reflections of the three towers, the wind, flowers, snow and moon and other attractions have their own characteristics. **The three towers of Chongsheng Temple are the landmark buildings of Dali. The thousand-year-old towers have witnessed the historical changes of Dali**. The Bai architecture and tie-dyeing craftsmanship of Xizhou Ancient Town show the unique charm of Bai culture. **Dali's food is also not to be missed. Rushan, Baba fish, bait blocks, etc. are all authentic Bai delicacies. Dali, a city that makes people linger.**
Hangzhou West Lake: A poetic residence in paradise on earth
 "There is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below", Hangzhou has a long-standing reputation. As a railway travel enthusiast, I took the high-speed rail to Hangzhou, and my first stop was of course the world-famous West Lake.  The ten scenic spots of West Lake each have their own merits, such as Broken Bridge and Residual Snow, Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake, and Sunset over Leifeng Pagoda, which are all unforgettable. Stroll along the Su Causeway, enjoy the scenery of lakes and mountains, and feel the humanistic atmosphere left by the Song Dynasty poet Su Dongpo.  The ancient temple of Lingyin Temple and the grotto statues of Feilai Peak show the profound Buddhist culture of Hangzhou. West Lake Longjing tea is a specialty of Hangzhou. Taste a cup of authentic Longjing in Meijiawu and feel the artistic conception of "the breeze and the bright moon are priceless, and the nearby water and distant mountains are all affectionate". Hangzhou, a city that makes people yearn for.

Just came back from Guilin... I didn't make any mistakes during the whole trip 🫡 The best part of Guilin + Yangshuo‼ ️
1、Important things should be said three times! When you go to the store to eat rice noodles, don’t ask the price❗️Just tell the boss two taels of rice noodles! ! If you don't ask, it's 6 yuan. If you ask, he will recommend you the signature gold medal rice noodles for 20 yuan.  2、Don't believe the taxi driver who says he will give you a discount to take you into the scenic area. They do have ways, but they won't give you a discount for nothing. 3、Don't trust the aunties soliciting customers on the roadside in Yangshuo, you will be ripped off. 4、Don't buy things in the scenic area. You can buy the same souvenirs at the roadside stalls and stores outside, and they can be more than half cheaper.  5、It is recommended to rent a small electric donkey or bicycle to travel in the scenic areas in Yangshuo. The Shili Gallery will be so congested that you will doubt your life. 6、In Yangshuo, I really strongly recommend not to eat beer fish❗️That is tomato stewed fish. A fish will really cost you 600. It is recommended to eat at local chain restaurants. Chunji roast goose and other things are delicious and reasonably priced👌 7、You can go to Xingping Ancient Town to eat and play, but don't stay there 🙅It's a small town, and there's no one there at night 8、Don't rent a car near the scenic spot in Yangshuo. Compare more and you'll find a good value for money 9、Prepare raincoats and slippers in advance for Yulong River Rafting. It's more expensive to rent on site  ✅✅✅Recommend some correct ways to play ⭕️Any rice noodle in Guilin is delicious. Don't stick to the popular rice noodle shops ⭕️There is a [Big Beard Rice Noodle] in Yangshuo. If you're not a local, you don't know that his signature braised rice noodles are really amazing ⭕️Highly recommend [Haitian Rice Noodle Roll] It's not the kind of rice noodles in Guangdong. It's really amazing. It's so delicious that you lick the plate. His spicy sauce is very Guilin-style ⭕️Recommend [Vietnamese Rice Roll] in Tiexi. It's a long one, similar to rice noodles but different from rice noodles. The breakfast there can be said to be a one-stop service ⭕️Be sure to try the [Glutinous Rice] for three yuan each. Believe me, you'll be addicted! Personally, I think it tastes better than Guizhou! Recommend Nuoxiang Station👍 ⭕️There are many scenic cafes near Xiangbi Hill, which are worth a try and you can see the beautiful sunset ⭕️If you don’t want to be stuck in traffic in Yangshuo, rent a small electric donkey and bicycle to play ⭕️There is a Bingquan soy milk shop in Yangshuo, which is the childhood memory of many Guangxi people. The ice bean curd in it is delicious ⭕️You must drink grandma’s handmade milk tea, the best local milk tea brand in Guangxi. All of his signatures are what I like, especially the longan milk tea 💗I really think Guilin is worth a visit! It’s not the beauty in the filter, but the kind of beautiful sunset that you can enjoy in any leisure time when you take a picture of it. 🌄Other unknown places may make you feel like you are in a paradise❤️

Their pandan cake is very suitable for children's appetite. Day3 Xidao  It is very convenient to go to Xidao if you live in Sanya Bay. I have been to Xidao with my children twice and I like it very much. There are well-developed coastal bathing beaches, turtle beaches, Niuwangling, and fishing villages with fireworks and original ecology. The glass sea on a sunny day is super beautiful. You can take the K16 bus to Xidao Station and go there early in the morning. It is worth a day here. In the evening, you can go to the Sea Eye to try Qiongzhou dregs vinegar. Their hot pot is very special. You can drink the soup! ! You don't have to worry about your children not being able to eat it~

Pudong: From tidal flats to international financial center
Thirty years ago, Pudong was a tidal flat, but now it has become the financial center of Asia. As a history and culture enthusiast, I am curious about the changes in Pudong. The skyscrapers in the Lujiazui Financial District are a symbol of China's reform and opening up. The Oriental Pearl Tower, **Shanghai Tower and Jinmao Tower are three super high-rise buildings that stand side by side and have become the new landmark of Shanghai.** Shanghai Disneyland adds a touch of fantasy to the city, where both adults and children can find their own happiness. Pudong's development speed is amazing. It has witnessed the take-off of China's economy and also foreshadows a more brilliant future.

Old factories, abandoned trains, machinery, industrial oil tanks, strong metal temperament, very good for taking photos, friends who check in remember to allocate time reasonably  - 📍F District: Dream Plus, Shanzhongtian Art Center #Shanzhongtian Art Center - 📍E District: Graffiti Wall, UCCA Center for Contemporary Art #UCCA Center for Contemporary Art, Bauhaus Square (Sculpture) #Bauhaus Square, Mirror Lake Art Space #Mirror Lake Art Space, Jiabaliu Design Store - 📍751D.park: #751D·PARK Beijing Fashion Design Plaza Locomotive Square, Old Lu District Square, Colored Containers, Train Tracks, Living 3D Museum #798/751 Living 3D Museum - 📍Zone D: M Woods Art Museum #M Woods Art Museum, Asia Art Center #Asia Art Center, Space Station, Ren Art Museum, 798 Opportunity Space, Can Art, Meilun Art Museum #Meilun Art Museum Saint Space, Xiaoke Theater #Xiaoke Theater, % Arabica Coffee Shop #% Arabica (M Woods Art Museum) - 📍Zone B: 798CUBE #798CUBE Art Center, Yue Art Museum #Yue·Art Museum, White Box Art Museum #White Box Art Museum, Fantasy Art Center #798 Fantasy Art Center·Barilin's Fantasy Journey, Sanyuan Contemporary Art Center #Sanyuan Contemporary Art Center, Name of the Rose - 📍Area A: Astronaut Reptile Club, Zhang Clay Figure Art Exhibition Hall, Arctic Coffee - 👉The most distinctive feature of 798 should be the art galleries and graffiti walls everywhere. If the weather is good, the photo output rate will be even higher. In addition to these, there are many creative markets and trendy toy stores from time to time. I personally think that Area E is the best to visit, and 751D.park and Area B are the best to take pictures‼ ️ Finally, I wish you all a happy time~ ❤️If you think it is useful, please click a little love and collect it! 👍
