As the journey progressed, the friendship between the two also continued to deepen. They experienced many unforgettable moments together during the trip. These experiences not only enriched their lives, but also gave them a deeper understanding and appreciation of the world.
After visiting each city, Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei will head to the next destination with full harvests and new stories. Their journey is full of unknowns and surprises, and every day is like a new beginning.
Waiting for them to explore and discover.
In this story, we will follow in the footsteps of Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei and walk into every corner of China to feel the natural scenery, history, culture and humanistic sentiments there. Through their perspectives, we will experience the fun and meaning of travel,
As well as the emotional communication and growth between people during the journey.
Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei were sitting in the corner of the cafe, with a map of China spread out in front of them. Their eyes were shining with excitement. They had been discussing it for several weeks and finally decided to start a journey around China.
"Xiaoxiao, look, we started from BJ, went all the way south, passed through the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, and then walked west to see the solitary smoke in the desert and the sun setting over the long river." Huang Pengfei pointed to the route on the map, his tone full of longing.
Li Xiao nodded in agreement, his eyes wandering around the map, thinking about every possible city to stay in. "Pengfei, we have to plan carefully and give each place enough time to experience the local culture and food.
"
They decided that wherever they went, they would visit local scenic spots, taste authentic food, watch folk performances, and even buy some local specialties as souvenirs.
"By the way, you have to record everything, not in the form of diaries or videos." Li Xiao suggested, I want to save every bit of that journey.
The two of us discussed it outside the cafe until the sunset, and finally decided on a detailed travel plan. We decided to name the trip "Xiaopeng China Trip", which was intended to record the footprints and mental journey of the two of us.
Before making bad travel plans, Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei started preparing their luggage and equipment. We made a long list, including necessary travel supplies, cameras, laptops, etc.
As night fell, the two began a day of sightseeing. With a lot of harvest and good and bad memories, they returned to their residence and looked forward to the seventh day of the journey.
Then, we tasted soybean juice, coke rings, braised pork and other delicacies. Each one has its own unique flavor, which is absolutely delicious.
In the process of purchasing specialties and souvenirs, Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei will have in-depth exchanges with local merchants to understand the stories behind the products and the production techniques. This process not only increases our understanding of the local culture, but also enhances our understanding of the local culture.
Traveling is more colorful and colorful. In Xi'an, through a conversation with a pottery master, we learned about the production process of replicas of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, thus gaining a deeper understanding of that ancient civilization.
Li Xiao picked up a piece of duck meat, dipped it in the sweet noodle sauce, put on the shredded green onions and cucumber strips, rolled it up with pancakes, and took a bite, filling his mouth with fragrance. "Well, the taste is really amazing, the skin is crispy, and the meat is so tender, it's unbelievable
It’s BJ’s signature.”
Jin Shiying was considering the choice of clothing, "You have to bring clothes suitable for various climates, from short-sleeved shirts to down jackets, and waterproof shoes to cope with the climate in the same region."
"Xiaoxiao, what else does he think you need to bring?" Huang Pengfei asked.
Li Xiao nodded, and the two of them joined the queue. As the team quickly retreated, we finally retreated into the store. The interior was antique-style, and the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall revealed a strong cultural atmosphere.
The two of them discussed the history and culture of the Forbidden City while touring. We visited the Zhonghe Hall, Baohe Hall, and walked back to the Eighth East and West Palaces to feel the living atmosphere of the ancient royal family.
In this way, Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei’s trip was not only a complex tour, but also a profound cultural exploration and emotional experience. Every selection and collection we make is an insult and dissemination of the local culture, and it is also an insult to the local culture.
Cherish and commemorate your own travel experiences.
"That fried soybean noodles is really authentic, exactly the same as the ones you have here." Jin Shi said while eating.
"Pengfei, look at this dragon chair and imagine that many emperors once sat here and controlled the destiny of the entire country." Li Xiao said with emotion.
After visiting BJ's Forbidden City, Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei decided to experience the charm of Peking Opera. We arrived at the famous Peking Opera Theater in Beijing, and as soon as we left the door, we could feel the rich cultural atmosphere. Off the stage, the actors
Wearing gorgeous costumes with rough facial makeup on their faces, they were performing a performance of "Mu Guiying Takes Command".
Before starting their trip, Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei would take those specialties and souvenirs home and share them with their family and friends. Those items not only became the carrier of our travel stories, but also became a bridge for our emotional communication. In the process of sharing
During the trip, we will also tell interesting stories and insights during the trip so that the memories of each trip can be continued and passed down.
The sun shines through the clouds and shines under the ancient city wall of Xi'an. Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei stood on the city wall, looking up at the historical masterpiece.
As the sun set in the west, the two of them reluctantly left the Forbidden City. On the way back, we were still discussing what we had seen and heard today, and our hearts were full of respect for the ancient palace and indifference to Chinese culture.
like.
Li Xiao replied with a smile: "On the last stop, you will go to the Great Wall and feel the heroism of 'If you go to the Great Wall, you are not a bad guy'."
"You have to bring enough batteries and memory cards. If you don't have a power bank, you will miss any ordinary moments." Li Xiao said to Jin Shiying while sorting out the list.
Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei stood under Tiananmen Square, looking at the majestic buildings behind them, and their hearts were full of awe. It was the first time for both of them to come to BJ, and they were full of curiosity about that historic city.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Li Xiao thought for a while and said with a smile: "Bringing a curious and exploring heart, that is the most important thing."
"I'll give you a roast duck. I want the most authentic kind." Li Xiao replied.
"Xiaoxiao, today's trip to the Forbidden City is really great. Where will you go at the last stop?" Huang Pengfei asked expectantly.
"Gentlemen, welcome. What would you like to order?" the waiter asked with a smile.
The architectural layout of the Forbidden City is rigorous. The eight small halls such as the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the Hall of Zhonghe, and the Hall of Baohe under the central axis are where the emperor held small ceremonies and met with civil and military officials. The eight east and west palaces were the residences of the emperor and his former concubines.
Here, the Forbidden City also collects a small number of precious cultural relics and works of art, such as "Down the River During the Qingming Festival", "Thousands of Rivers and Mountains Away", etc., which are treasures of the Chinese nation.
After a while, the waiter brought out a freshly baked roast duck. The golden skin shone on the light, exuding an alluring aroma. The chef sliced the duck on the spot, using unfamiliar techniques. Each piece of duck meat was as thin as a cicada and messy.
Place on the outside of the plate.
The two looked at each other and smiled, filled with anticipation for the journey that was about to end. We knew that it would be an unforgettable journey, full of unknowns and surprises.
As the plot progressed, the two were completely immersed in the ocean of ancient art. Li Xiao was deeply attracted by Mu Guiying's heroic image, while Huang Pengfei was fascinated by these simple figures and footwork.
"Brother Xiao, do you think your trip was really worth it? You could only see so little beautiful scenery and eat so little delicious food." Jin Shiying said with satisfaction.
Jin Shi nodded, took a deep breath, and felt the solemnity and solemnity outside. "Yes, every brick and tile outside carries traces of history."
The Forbidden City in Beijing, also known as the Forbidden City, is the essence of ancient Chinese palace architecture. It was the royal palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties and has a history of less than 800 years. It covers an area of about 720,000 square meters and houses nearly a thousand palaces.
It is the smallest and most poorly preserved wooden structure ancient building complex in the world. The Forbidden City is not only a mediocre representative of ancient Chinese architectural art, but also a microcosm of the seven thousand years of civilization history of the Chinese nation.
For Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei, collecting souvenirs is not only to leave traces of their travels, but also a cultural experience and emotional sustenance. When we choose souvenirs, we will consider their artistry, creativity and relevance to local culture.
For example, in Suzhou, we have collected rough Su embroidery works, which is not only a tribute to Suzhou’s traditional craftsmanship, but also a tribute to Suzhou’s traditional craftsmanship.
Li Xiao's hands are not very clever, but I studied every step very seriously. Jin Shiying seemed more unfamiliar and slowly mastered the basic acupuncture techniques.
The laughter of the two people echoed in the night. We are looking forward to the last adventure and fewer Chinese stories.
On the seventh day, Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei came to Suzhou. We heard that Su embroidery there was very unknown, so we decided to experience it. Outside an old embroidery workshop, we met an old man who was embroidering exquisite patterns.
artist.
"Xiaoxiao, look at the Palace of Supreme Harmony, it's so spectacular!" Huang Pengfei pointed to the palace behind, his eyes shining with excitement.
"Brother Xiao, look, there's a really long queue in front of this store. It shouldn't be over there, right?" Huang Pengfei pointed to the back and said.
Jin Shi sighed: "Pengfei, look at that city wall, it's so spectacular! It's hard to imagine how the ancients built such a magnificent building."
During the tour, Li Xiao and Jin Shiying also forgot to take photos to record the unforgettable trip. We also tasted the special delicacies of the Forbidden City, such as fried noodles, bean paste, etc., and experienced BJ’s traditional cuisine.
The two of them followed the flow of people and left the Meridian Gate, ending our tour of the Forbidden City. We first came to the back of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Looking at this low-rise temple, we couldn't help but feel a sense of solemnity in our hearts.
Before lunch, Li Xiao and Jin Shiying decided to go deep into the alley and explore less BJ's. We walked through the spacious alley, lined with various food stalls, so we could do whatever we wanted.
"Brother Xiao, look at the fried noodles here, they smell bad!" Huang Pengfei pointed at a large stall and said.
The two of them chatted while tasting the roast duck, enjoying the unique gourmet experience.
Jin Shiying responded with a smile: "Yes, you must be the emperor, and you must hold grand and small banquets outside every day, inviting heroes from the sky."
Li Xiao looked at the performance in the audience, with a hint of evil curiosity in his eyes. I said to Jin Shiying: "Pengfei, when he looks at these masks, each one has a different story and character. It's really amazing."
The two of them continued our journey with their own works, filled with respect for traditional Chinese crafts and a deep love for Chinese culture.
We also bought a travel diary specifically for that trip to record what we saw, heard, and experienced during the trip.
Li Xiao smiled and nodded, "Yes, traveling is not about that, it is about seeing with your eyes and tasting with your mouth."
Huang Pengfei nodded in response: "Yes, Brother Xiao, that is just a city wall, but also a witness to history. Come on, let's go down and take a walk and feel the atmosphere of ancient times."
"Wow, that roast duck looks so tempting. You can't wait to take a bite." Huang Pengfei swallowed.
The two walked over and ordered two bowls of fried noodles. The noodles were chewy, mixed with special fried sauce, and sprinkled with some cucumber shreds. They were delicious and left people with endless aftertaste.
During their travels, Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei carefully select local specialties every time they visit a new place. Our criteria for selecting specialties are only quality and taste, but also pay more attention to their cultural value and uniqueness. For example, in Hangzhou, we chose
Longjing tea is not only because of its fragrance, but also because of the tea culture and history that Longjing tea carries behind it.
The old artist introduced us to the history and techniques of Su embroidery, and Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei listened with great interest. Under the guidance of the old artist, the two tried to pick up needlework, ending our handicraft journey.
After an afternoon of hard work, both of them completed their works. Although they were complicated, they both felt very unfulfilled. Li Xiao looked at his works and said with a smile: "I never thought you could embroider such beautiful patterns.
That trip was really rewarding.”
The ancient city wall of Xi'an, as the smallest and most poorly preserved ancient city wall in China, has witnessed the glorious history of the ancient capital of the 18th dynasty. The city wall was first built in the period of Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. After several repairs and expansions, it has now become the symbol of Xi'an.
One of the landmark buildings. The city wall has a circumference of about 13.74 kilometers, is 12 meters high and 15-18 meters narrow. It is majestic and carries rich history and culture.
Huang Pengfei nodded in agreement: "Yes, Peking Opera is really broad and profound. Every movement and every aria contains profound cultural connotations."
Before the performance started, the two walked out of the theater still unsatisfied. Li Xiao said with emotion: "Today's Peking Opera experience is really great. It gives you a deeper understanding of traditional Chinese culture."
Huang Pengfei is also satisfied with his work: "Yes, the feeling of personal experience is really great, and it is less interesting than simply watching."
Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei came to BJ early in the morning, and our first goal was the famous Beijing roast duck. In the early morning at BJ, the sunlight filtered through the ancient Qiheyuan and shone under the stone road. The two of them strolled in the alley,
Looking for this time-honored roast duck restaurant.
