Chapter 1461 1476.
In the morning light of GD Province, Li Xiao, Zhang Yue and Huang Xu stood at the foot of Baiyun Mountain in Guangzhou, ready to start their trip to China. The sun shone through the gaps in the leaves and sprinkled on their expectant faces. Li Xiao, a young man who loves photography, carried his camera on his back, his eyes flashing with desire for an unknown journey. Zhang Yue, a lively and cheerful girl, held a thick travel guide in her hand, and she was full of curiosity about this trip. Huang Xu, a calm scholar, held a notebook in his hand, ready to record every detail of this trip.

"Brother Xiao, where are we going first today?" Zhang Yue asked excitedly.

"Let's go to Baiyun Mountain first. I heard that the sea of ​​clouds there is particularly spectacular." Li Xiao replied, his eyes already cast on the mountains in the distance.

They walked up the winding mountain road, and the scenery along the way amazed them. Li Xiao stopped from time to time to record these beautiful moments with his camera, while Zhang Yue chattered about the legends and history of Baiyun Mountain.

"Look, the sea of ​​clouds over there is like a fairyland." Li Xiao said, pointing to the distance.

"Yes, it's really beautiful! Brother Xiao, take a picture quickly!" Zhang Yue urged.

Huang Xu was quietly observing everything around him, writing something down in his notebook from time to time.

When they reached the top of the mountain, they were shocked by the magnificent view of the sea of ​​clouds. Li Xiao quickly adjusted his camera to capture this rare beauty. Zhang Yue and Huang Xu also took out their phones to record this moment.

"The sea of ​​clouds here is really refreshing." Huang Xu said with emotion.

"Yes, I have never seen such a beautiful scenery." Zhang Yue agreed.

They stayed at the top of the mountain for a while, then went down the mountain to taste the food of Guangzhou. They came to a famous teahouse and tasted the authentic Cantonese morning tea. They were full of praise for the delicious dim sum, especially Zhang Yue, who had a special liking for the shrimp dumplings and siu mai here.

"The shrimp dumplings here are so delicious that I don't want to leave." Zhang Yue said while eating.

"Haha, Yueyue, don't eat too much, we still have to continue our journey." Li Xiao said with a smile.

Huang Xu was quietly sipping tea and enjoying the tranquility.

After breakfast, they went to the Chen Clan Academy in Guangzhou to admire the exquisite wood and stone carvings. Li Xiao used his camera to record the details of these works of art, while Zhang Yue admired them.

"The carvings here are so exquisite that I want to take some home," said Zhang Yue.

"Yueyue, don't move anything. These are cultural relics." Li Xiao reminded.

Huang Xu was studying the carving techniques carefully.

After visiting Chen Clan Academy, they went to Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street in Guangzhou to experience the prosperity and bustle of Guangzhou. They strolled along the street, tasted various snacks, and bought some local specialties.

"There are so many snacks here that I don't know what to eat." Zhang Yue said while eating.

"Haha, Yueyue, take your time eating, we still have many places to go." Li Xiao said with a smile.

Huang Xu was observing the pedestrians on the street and recording their lives.

As night fell, they walked along the Pearl River in Guangzhou, enjoying the night view of the river. The lights reflected on the river, sparkling and beautiful.

"Today's trip was so fulfilling. I'm already looking forward to tomorrow's trip," said Zhang Yue.

"Yes, we are going to Shenzhen tomorrow. There are more fun places waiting for us there." Li Xiao replied.

Huang Xu stood quietly looking at the river, thinking about what he had seen and heard today.

Their first day in Guangzhou ended like this, and tomorrow they will go to Shenzhen to continue their journey in China.

The next morning, the sun shone through the curtains onto Li Xiao's face. He rubbed his eyes and sat up from the bed. Zhang Yue and Huang Xu were still asleep. They walked along the Pearl River in Guangzhou until late last night, enjoying the unique night view of the southern city.

Li Xiao walked out of the room quietly and came to the balcony, breathing in the fresh air. He took out his camera and took a few photos of the Guangzhou Tower in the distance in the morning light. This towering building looked particularly spectacular under the reflection of the morning sun.

"Brother Xiao, you got up so early." Zhang Yue rubbed his eyes and walked out of the room, and saw Li Xiao taking pictures.

"Yes, how can we miss such a beautiful scenery?" Li Xiao replied with a smile.

"By the way, we are going to Shenzhen today. Are you ready?" Zhang Yue asked.

"Of course, I can't wait." Li Xiao replied.

After breakfast, they set off for Shenzhen. Along the way, they admired the scenery outside the window and talked about their expectations for Shenzhen.

"Shenzhen is a vibrant city with many high-tech companies and innovative projects," said Huang Xu.

"I heard that the seaside in Shenzhen is also very beautiful. We can go for a walk on the beach," Zhang Yue added.

"That's right, and Shenzhen's cuisine is also very unique, we must try it." said Li Xiao.

After several hours of driving, they finally arrived in Shenzhen. They first came to one of Shenzhen's landmarks, the SZ Civic Center. This modern building shone brightly in the sun, and Li Xiao recorded this moment with his camera.

"The buildings here are so well designed," Zhang Yue exclaimed.

"Yes, Shenzhen's development speed is really amazing," said Huang Xu.

Then, they came to Shenzhen Seaside Park. The sea breeze blew gently, the waves beat against the shore, and they strolled along the coastline, enjoying the coolness brought by the sea breeze.

"The sea here is so beautiful and the beach is so clean," said Zhang Yue.

"Let's take a few photos together." Li Xiao suggested.

They found a good spot and took a few photos with a selfie stick, leaving behind beautiful memories.

Afterwards, they came to Shenzhen's Dongmen Old Street, which is full of historical atmosphere, with various small shops on both sides of the street selling various snacks and specialties.

"The snacks here look so tempting." Zhang Yue said as he walked.

"Yes, let's try the sweet soup here. I heard it's very famous." Li Xiao suggested.

They found a dessert shop and tasted the local dessert, which was sweet but not greasy and tasted excellent.

After eating and drinking, they went to Lianhuashan Park in Shenzhen. Here, they could overlook the beautiful scenery of the whole Shenzhen. Li Xiao used his camera to record the prosperity of the city. "The night view of Shenzhen must be beautiful too. Let's come back in the evening." Zhang Yue suggested.

"Good idea, we can come here at night to enjoy the night view." Li Xiao agreed.

As night fell, they came to Lianhuashan Park again. With the lights on, the night view of Shenzhen was like a brilliant painting, beautiful beyond words.

"The night view here is so beautiful that I don't want to leave." Zhang Yue said with emotion.

"Yes, the night view of Shenzhen is really fascinating," said Huang Xu.

"We will leave Shenzhen tomorrow and go to the next city," Li Xiao reminded.

"I really hope our journey will never end," said Zhang Yue.

They stayed in Lianhuashan Park for a long time and left reluctantly until late at night. Tomorrow, they will go to the next city to continue their trip to China.

As the night fades in Shenzhen, Li Xiao, Zhang Yue and Huang Xu pack their bags in their hotel room, preparing to head to their next destination, Hangzhou. Zhang Yue excitedly flips through a guidebook, Huang Xu writes down what they saw and heard yesterday in a notebook, and Li Xiao checks his camera to make sure everything is ready.

"Brother Xiao, the West Lake in Hangzhou is said to be very beautiful. We must go and see it." Zhang Yue said.

"Yes, the beauty of West Lake is well-known, and the Longjing tea there is also very famous." Li Xiao replied.

·································································Dividing line·································································

Huang Xu added: "Hangzhou also has many cultural relics, such as Lingyin Temple, which we can also visit."

They embarked on a journey to Hangzhou with great expectations. Along the way, they discussed the history and culture of Hangzhou, and time passed unknowingly.

After arriving in Hangzhou, they first came to the West Lake. The lake was sparkling, and the mountains in the distance were looming, beautiful like an ink painting. Li Xiao immediately took out his camera to capture this rare beauty.

"The scenery here is so beautiful, I don't know how to describe it." Zhang Yue exclaimed.

"Yes, the beauty of West Lake is hard to describe in words and can only be felt with the heart," said Huang Xu.

They strolled along the lake, admiring the beautiful scenery, and stopped to take pictures from time to time. Li Xiao's camera captured the lotus flowers in the lake, while Zhang Yue had a special liking for the willow trees by the lake.

Afterwards, they took a boat tour of West Lake, and the boatman introduced them to the legends and history of West Lake. Zhang Yue listened with great interest and asked questions to the boatman from time to time.

"Brother Boatman, is the story of White Snake true?" Zhang Yue asked curiously.

“Haha, that’s just a legend, but West Lake does have many beautiful legends.” The boatman replied with a smile.

After touring the West Lake, they came to Lingyin Temple. The tranquility and solemnity of the temple purified their souls. Huang Xu quietly observed in the temple and felt the cultural atmosphere here.

"The temples here are really historical, and every Buddha statue is carved to look lifelike," said Li Xiao.

“Yes, I can feel the tranquility and peace here,” said Zhang Yue.

They strolled through the temple, feeling the tranquility and peace here, while Huang Xu recorded what he saw and felt in his notebook.

After visiting Lingyin Temple, they went to Hefang Street in Hangzhou. The quaint streets here are filled with various snacks and handicrafts. They tasted local snacks and bought some handicrafts as souvenirs.

"The snacks here are so delicious that I don't want to leave." Zhang Yue said while eating.

"Haha, Yueyue, don't eat too much, we still have to continue our journey." Li Xiao said with a smile.

Huang Xu quietly observed the pedestrians on the street and recorded their lives.

As night fell, they dined at a restaurant by the West Lake and tasted the specialties of Hangzhou. After dinner, they came to the West Lake again to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the West Lake at night.

"Today's trip was so fulfilling. I'm already looking forward to tomorrow's trip," said Zhang Yue.

"Yes, tomorrow we are going to Suzhou, where there are famous gardens and canals." Li Xiao replied.

Huang Xu was quietly looking at the lake, thinking about what he had seen and heard today.

They reluctantly left the West Lake and returned to the hotel. Tomorrow, they will go to Suzhou to continue their China trip.

As the night of West Lake in Hangzhou faded away, Li Xiao, Zhang Yue and Huang Xu packed their bags in their hotel room, ready to greet the new day. They were full of anticipation for the upcoming trip to Suzhou.

"You must visit the gardens in Suzhou, they are the representatives of Chinese classical garden art." Li Xiao said while packing up his camera.

"I heard that Suzhou's silk is also very famous. We must go and see it." Zhang Yue flipped through the travel guide excitedly.

Huang Xu recorded what they saw and heard yesterday in his notebook, and added: "Suzhou's Pingtan is also very unique. We should not miss it."

The next morning, they took the high-speed train to Suzhou. They were deeply impressed by the combination of Suzhou's classical charm and modernization. They first came to the famous Humble Administrator's Garden, where the garden layout is exquisite, the mountains and rivers are interdependent, and the pavilions and towers are scattered.

"The garden design here is so ingenious, every place looks like a painting." Li Xiao exclaimed, constantly recording these beautiful sceneries with his camera.

"Yes, every corner here is full of poetry." Zhang Yue couldn't help but sigh.

They strolled through the garden, admiring every view, while Huang Xu recorded the layout and design of the garden in his notebook, sharing his insights with them from time to time.

After visiting the Humble Administrator's Garden, they went to the Suzhou Museum, which has a rich collection of ancient porcelain, calligraphy and painting, each of which shows the profound cultural heritage of Suzhou.

"The collections here are so exquisite, and every piece is worth careful appreciation," said Li Xiao.

"I particularly like the calligraphy and paintings here. Every stroke is full of power," Huang Xu added.

Zhang Yue was particularly interested in the silk exhibits in the museum. While admiring them, she said: "Suzhou's silk is really well-deserved. The patterns are so beautiful."

In the afternoon, they came to Pingjiang Road in Suzhou, where there are various small shops on both sides of the quaint street, selling various snacks and handicrafts. They tasted local snacks and bought some silk products as souvenirs.
