A Drop of Water Passing Through Lijiang “by Alai
Yes, I turned into another drop of water and rushed down the mountain with a loud noise from the other water in the waterfall. On the high mountain, we remained silent for so long that we could finally open our throats and make a loud noise. Along the way, we passed many tall and straight trees called pine and fir. There are more trees full of flowers called azaleas and camellias. Passing through the post roads of the caravan and the people in the Naxi villages, they are all saying: Lijiang Dam, Lijiang Dam, that is truly a beautiful mountain basin. From the foot of Yulong Snow Mountain, head south and spread out.
Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest Area
Snowy peaks pierce into the clouds, with silver shimmering at the peaks. Lakes of all sizes are like jewels set in colorful valleys. The lake water is clear to the bottom, and the rocks at the bottom of the lake are colorful. From the valley to the hillside, there are primitive forests scattered throughout. Whenever the weather is clear, the blue sky, white clouds, snow capped peaks, and forests are reflected in the lake water, forming colorful pictures. No wonder people call these lakes “Five Flower Sea” and “Five Color Pool”.
The Sky in Lhasa
Lhasa is a famous’ Sunshine City ‘. The sky there is always so blue and transparent, like sapphire washed with clean water.
In Lhasa, people’s voices can touch the blue sky, and reaching out their hands can feel the blue sky. Someone said, ‘A handful of blue sky can wash your face.’ This is really amazing.
The Oath of the Land “by Duanmu Hongliang
I think of the towering emerald white birch forest, with straight and beautiful white birch trees moaning on the field; I think of sorghum like red cloth, golden beans, black soil, red jade face, black jade eyes, colorful mountain carvings, galloping deer herds, coal blocks with pine resin smell, and red foot gold; I think of the distant car bells, the horses running on the smooth road wearing strings of bells on a sunny day, the fox fairy’s late night words, and the strange gusts of wind in the wilderness
The Grassland “by Lao She
This time, I saw the grassland. The sky there is cuter than elsewhere, the air is so fresh, the sky is so clear, it always makes me want to sing a song to express my joy. Under the sky, a thousand miles of green, not vast. There are small hills on all sides, the flat ground is green, and the hills are also green. The flock of sheep climbed up the hill one moment and then came down again. Wherever they went, it felt like they had embroidered white flowers on an endless green carpet.
Guilin Landscape “by Chen Miao
People say, ‘Guilin’s scenery is the best in the world.’ We took a wooden boat and floated on the Li River to admire Guilin’s scenery.
I have seen the magnificent sea and enjoyed the mirror level West Lake, but I have never seen water like the Li River. The water of the Li River is so quiet that you can’t feel it flowing; The water of the Li River is so clear that you can see the sand and stones at the bottom of the river; The water of the Li River is so green, as if it were a flawless piece of jade. The microwaves stirred up by the oars create ripples that make you feel the boat moving forward and the shore moving backward.
Listening to the Waterfall of Huangguoshu “by Yang Guomin
The Huangguoshu Waterfall falls into a valley surrounded by mountains. We descend along the stone steps from the west, and the mountain path is lonely and deserted. The sound of the waterfall “claps” oscillates and echoes in the valley, like thousands of double bass playing and roaring.
At the bottom of the valley, we sat on a rock by the water’s edge, separated by a small green pool. The waterfall, like a white curtain, seemed like it could be lifted to wipe our faces with just one hand. The smoke like droplets of water that jumped into the bottom of the stream directly hit our faces, refreshing and cool.
Watching Tides “by Zhao Zongcheng and Zhu Mingyuan
Around one o’clock in the afternoon, a rumbling sound could be heard from a distance, as if thunder was rolling silently. Suddenly, there was a lot of noise and someone told us: ‘The tide is coming!’! We tiptoed eastward and saw that the river was still calm and there was no noticeable change. After a while, the noise grew louder and louder, and a white line appeared at the junction of water and sky in the east, causing the crowd to boil again.
Watching Snow at the Lake Pavilion “by Zhang Dai
In December of the fifth year of Chongzhen, Yu lived in West Lake. After three days of heavy snowfall, the sounds of people and birds in the lake were completely silenced.
The day has come to an end, and Yu Lan, in a small boat, holds a fire in his clothes and goes alone to the pavilion in the center of the lake to see the snow. The rime lingers, the sky, clouds, mountains, and water are all white above and below. The shadows on the lake are only a trace on the long embankment, a little pavilion in the center of the lake, a mustard with the remaining boats, and two or three people in the boats.
Ye Shengtao from “Suzhou Gardens”
There are rockeries and ponds in Suzhou gardens. The stacking of rockeries can be considered an art rather than just a technique. Whether it’s the towering mountains or a few small hills complemented by bamboo flowers and trees, it all depends on the designers and craftsmen’s life experiences and the presence of hills and valleys in their hearts, so that visitors can forget about the city of Suzhou when climbing and only feel like they are in the mountains.
Feng Jicai from “The Mountain Crawler”
You walked briskly past them, thinking you had left them far behind. Where do you enjoy the magnificent mountain scenery, or recite the ancient inscriptions carved on the stone walls by the roadside, or wash your face and feet by the noisy stream? They have silently walked past you and quietly walked ahead. When you discover it, you will be surprised, thinking that they are like immortals, rushing up through the clouds and mist.
Terra Cotta Warriors
Each Terra Cotta Warriors is an extremely exquisite art treasure. Upon careful examination, one’s expressions varied: some nodded and furrowed their brows, lost in thought, as if contemplating how to cooperate with each other to defeat the enemy; Some have bright eyes and solemn expressions, as if secretly making up their minds to fight to the death for the unification of the Qin state and the world; Some clenched their fists tightly, as if waiting for the horn, ready to go on a mission; Some gaze into the distance, as if missing their loved ones in their hometown… Approaching them, one can feel a faint sound of breathing.
