    Jinling night silence cool breeze, cupola incense array through Chang'an, Luoyang early summer Guangling spring, Gusu outside the city of Hanshan Temple, Lin'an has always been 30 years ......Although there are many place names that have been changed, there are still some place names in our country that are amazing, such as Yunmengze, Nanxun, Dunhuang, Fenglingdu and other place names, which sound fascinating.

    Nanxun. The first time I heard the name "Nanxun", it was deeply imprinted in my mind. Nanxun is a place that is both romantic and rich in classical Chinese characteristics.

    Nanxun is located in the center of Suzhou-Hangzhou-Jiahu Lake, since the Southern Song Dynasty has been "the land of water and land", "the wealth of cultivating mulberry, a right in Zhejiang", because the Xunxi River runs through it, it is named - Xunxi. And because the southern merchants of Xunxi gather, there are many houses, so there is a place name - Nanlin.

    Dunhuang. Speaking of Dunhuang, everyone should know it, and everyone knows it.

    The word "Dunhuang" was first seen in Zhang Qian's recital to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the "Historical Records: The Biography of Dawan Lie", "The Shiyue clan lives in Dunhuang and Qilian". In 111 BC, Dunhuang County was officially established.

    The ancients explained the word "Dunhuang" simply and powerfully, such as the Eastern Han Dynasty Yingshao Note "Book of Han" said "Dun, Da Ye." Huang, Sheng also". It can be seen that Dunhuang was already an important border town as early as the Han Dynasty, located in the westernmost part of the Hexi Corridor in Gansu Province, and was the main gateway of the "Silk Road" west out of Yumen Pass and Yangguan.

    The word Shangri-la, which means the sun and moon in the heart, is pronounced in English from the Tibetan dialect of Zhongdian, a ten-language group in the South Road of the Kang dialect. The word "Shangri-La" has been recorded in Tibetan documents more than 1,000 years ago, and the Chinese pinyin alphabet is transliterated into "xamgyinyilha", which means "the sun and moon in the heart". The meaning of the word Shangri-La is consistent with the Tibetan place name "Niwangzong" in the ancient city of Zhongdian County.

    Later, the word "Shangri-La" became a unique place name after being introduced and quoted by "Lost Horizon". Here, it is a pure sanctuary, so beautiful that you will fall in love with it at first sight.

    Provence is located in the south of France, and from the day of its birth, it was carefully guarded that it was not until the arrival of the Englishman Peter Mayer that the veil of Provence's long-standing unique lifestyle was gradually revealed. In Meier's pen, "Provence" is no longer a simple regional name, but also represents a simple, carefree, relaxed and lazy way of life, a kind of pampering and humiliation, watching the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court; Go and stay unintentionally, looking at the leisurely artistic conception of the clouds in the sky. If traveling is about getting rid of the shackles of life, Provence will make you forget everything.

    The whole region of Provence has an unusual charm due to its great variety: the weather is unpredictable, the warm winds are warm, the sea breezes are wild, the terrain is undulating, the plains are vast, the peaks are steep, and the valleys are lonely.

The four seasons are warm and spring-like, and the products are abundant. People who have nothing to do often look at the sea in the distance and wait for the sunset to dawn.

    The sun shines along with the winds blowing from the Pacific Ocean, and the color of the water changes from deep to clear. They call themselves "God's people," and people call them "the closest place to heaven."

    Vermont Forest In the movie Forrest Gump, Forrest Gump starts running after losing Jenny, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean, from the fields where the wheat waves roll to the town with bright red leaves. This stunning shot of the foliage was taken at Jenny Farm in Vermont: a long fence, a small dark red house, roaming calves, and a picturesque backdrop of the golden autumn fields.

    There is no other place in the world other than Vermont where autumn is so vigorous. Vermont's maple leaf season begins in September and lasts until October. During the month, the leaves of the maple tree gradually turn from green to yellow, then orange, then bright red, then deep red, and finally to brownish red before falling.

    The northern part of the country is close to the Canadian border

    Shangri-La, when I was a child, I thought it should be very fragrant, but when I grew up, I realized that it was originally the meaning of "the sun and moon in the heart" in Tibetan, and it was a pure holy place for Tibetans.

During this year's National Day, I took an 18-hour bus from Chengdu to Seda, arrived at nearly 12 o'clock in the evening, slept in the stairwell overnight at about minus 10 degrees, and went up the mountain to Wuming Buddhist College in the morning. And it is particularly worth mentioning that this is a regular Buddhist college, ** is also very cheap, even in the peak season, it is only 140 yuan for a four-person room, and the food is also very cheap, but abstain from meat and alcohol. This is probably what sets this place apart from other attractions.
