A 600-word essay on Yunnan travel notes. A 600-word essay on Yunnan travel notes.

People say that Yunnan has a pleasant climate and beautiful scenery, just like a fairyland on earth. Taking advantage of the wonderful time of summer vacation, my mother took me to travel to Yunnan with a tour group. I couldn't contain my excitement, and my mind had already flown to Yunnan, thousands of miles away.

At noon on July 22, I finally got on the train heading northwest and started my journey to Yunnan.

The first day

After taking the train for more than ten hours, we finally arrived at the first stop of this trip - Stone Forest.

After breakfast, we came to the Stone Forest Scenic Area. This is one of the eight major geoparks in China. It is divided into large and small stone forests. It has always been known as the "first wonder in the world". The landform here is a typical karst landform, which is very rare in the world. We first visited the Big Stone Forest. As soon as we entered the scenic spot, the beautiful scenery in front of us immediately attracted us. Strange peaks and rocks are criss-crossing; green trees and red flowers set off each other, forming a picturesque landscape. Indulge in it, and all the fatigue on the way will be wiped away. The fun is yet to come! We followed the tour guide and went deep into the "dense forest" step by step.

Walking along the narrow path, we came to the iconic landscape of the entire stone forest. A huge boulder stands on the flat ground, with two big red characters carved in the center of the boulder - Stone Forest. These two characters are powerful and majestic, echoing the scenery and style of the Stone Forest. It's really wonderful! We stopped to take photos, rested for a while and then continued the tour. (Article reading website: sanwen)

The further you go, the denser the stone peaks become, and the path forks into many other paths, making people feel that this stone forest is dark and mysterious. In fact, this is not the case. There are scenery everywhere, and there are scenery within the scenery, which makes people have to marvel at the uncanny workmanship of nature. Look! This place is called "Mountain of Swords and Sea of ??Fire". The stone below is like a burning fire, and the stone above is like an extremely sharp sword, hence the name "Sword Mountain and Sea of ??Fire". In the middle of a pool of green water, a stone that looked like a sharp sword suddenly rose up, but the sharp blade was broken and fell into the pool with only a corner exposed. This is the famous Jianfeng Pool... There are countless strange natural landscapes. It dazzles us. Finally, we came to a pavilion. From here, you can have a panoramic view of the entire large stone forest. Looking at the undulating and majestic stone peaks, I really feel like "seeing all the small mountains at a glance".

Later, we visited the beautiful small stone forest, and Ashima’s Incarnation Stone also left a deep impression on me. Although I only stayed in the Stone Forest for half a day, the magic and beauty here have left a deep imprint on my mind.

In the afternoon, we also visited Colorful Yunnan, bought some local products, and then checked into the hotel to recharge and prepare for the next day's trip.

The next day

At dawn in the morning, we got up and took the bus to the second stop - Dali.

After two hours’ drive, we arrived in Dali. First we are going to the famous Erhai Lake. Maybe you will ask is this a sea? No, in fact this is a very big lake. It is located at the foot of Diancang Mountain and is known as the "Pearl of the Plateau". We boarded a cruise ship with Chinese characteristics and prepared to cruise on the Erhai Lake. The cruise ship started slowly and headed towards the center of the lake. I came to the deck of the cruise ship, the soft sunshine was shining on me, and the cool wind kept blowing on my face, gently caressing my cheek. It was very comfortable, and I suddenly felt that my body and mind were so comfortable. Looking far into the distance, the mountains in the distance are looming under the clouds and mist, as if girls in white gauze are using Erhai Lake as a mirror to dress up. Indeed, the water of Erhai Lake is clear and blue. The wind ripples on the lake surface. The sun shines on the lake surface, as if someone sprinkled a layer of gold paper on it, and the golden light shines. Not only that, there are abundant fish and shrimp here, and it is truly worthy of being called the "Pearl of the Plateau"! I feel like I have integrated myself wholeheartedly into the wonderful nature. I really want to sing a song to express my joy!

Immediately afterwards, we watched a Bai song and dance performance and tasted the unique three-course tea. The rhythmic and distinctive song and dance performances of the Bai boys and girls are really amazing, especially the three-course tea that the Bai people use to welcome guests. One is crying, the other is sweet, and the third is aftertaste. memorable! Later, we went to Nanzhao Customs Island to learn about the local customs and habits. In the afternoon, we also visited Butterfly Spring. The day passed in a blink of an eye, and I looked forward to the coming of a new day.

The third day

On this day, we came to Lijiang, an ancient city with a long history, and visited the famous Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.

The altitude of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is more than 5,000 meters. The air on the mountain is thin and there is little oxygen. Altitude sickness is prone to occur, which is a big test for the physical fitness of climbers. Moreover, the temperature in the mountains is low and the weather is unpredictable and unpredictable.

While still at the foot of the mountain, I already felt the biting cold air. It seemed that it would not be easy to climb this snow-capped mountain. We first took the car to a certain height and then took the cable car up the mountain. The tour bus was driving on a winding mountain road. I looked out through the window: the trees were lush and green, covering a large area of ??mountains. Why didn't they look like snow-capped mountains at all? I was filled with questions. But as the car went higher and higher, the trees became sparse. oh! It turns out that trees are also afraid of the cold.

We quickly reached the halfway point of the mountain. We also rented large cotton-padded jackets and bought oxygen bottles. We were fully armed and ready to go up the mountain. The cable car kept sending passengers up the mountain one after another back and forth, and finally it was us. I got on the cable car and looked down through the glass window. There were only a few big trees here and there, growing in the mountains despite the severe cold. The cable car rose steadily. I looked into the distance and saw the rolling sea of ??clouds wrapping around the mountainside. It was a vast expanse of white. It was so spectacular!

In just a few minutes, the cable car had already brought us close to the top of the mountain, and we had to walk the rest of the mountain road by ourselves. I walked on the stairs made of wooden planks. The wind was biting and my hands were frozen. Not long after walking, I suddenly saw a huge stone standing in front of me, with Arabic numerals carved on all sides: "4506", which means the altitude here is 4506 meters. We took photos here and then continued towards the top of the mountain. The special climate of the plateau made us very uncomfortable, and every step we took was difficult. If we run as usual, we will be out of breath and even suffer from hypoxia, so we can only slow down.

The emperor pays off! We finally reached the end of the wooden ladder. Looking down from here, the scenery is really beautiful! The entire mountain range is in full view. The gray-white stones and the emerald green trees form a wonderful match, and coupled with the clouds and mist, it looks even more beautiful and charming!

We stayed on the mountain for more than an hour and then took the cable car down. I think I will never forget this sacred and beautiful Jade Dragon Snow Mountain!

In the afternoon, we took the bus back to Dali and visited the Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple.

Chongsheng Temple was a famous Buddhist temple in Nanzhao and Dali during the Tang and Song Dynasties. The three pagodas of Chongsheng Temple stood upright in front of the temple. Today, the temple has been destroyed and the pagodas remain.

When I walked in, the first thing that attracted me was the pines and cypresses on both sides of the cement avenue and the large lawns. The trees are not high, but they are very green; the grass is very green and full of vitality. Walking along the avenue, the tall and majestic image of the Three Towers resolutely appeared in front of me. According to the tour guide's introduction, the main tower among the three towers is called Qianxun Tower. It is 69.13 meters high and is a sixteen-level square hollow brick tower with dense eaves. The two small towers are located in the north and south, both 42.19 meters high. They are ten-level octagonal hollow brick towers with dense eaves. All in all, the Three Pagodas are hundreds of years old. It is rare that they are still standing today.

We climbed up the stairs and came to the back of the Three Pagodas. There is a stone here called Frog Rock. There are two small holes on the stone. As long as you use the stone to dig into the small hole three times, you will hear the sound. To the croaking sound of frogs. I tried it hesitantly, and sure enough, there was a sound of frogs croaking in the distance. Later, after listening to the tour guide's explanation, I found out that this was caused by the echo of the three towers. oh! It seems that these three towers also have many mysteries!

We left the Three Pagodas and visited the ancient city of Dali. The day's trip made me exhausted. When I returned to the hotel and lay on the bed, I thought about what tomorrow would be like. It's going to be a lot of fun, I'm looking forward to it.

Day 4

We returned to Kunming to visit more attractions here.

The car went straight to Xishan. Speaking of it, Xishan is very famous. It is the most famous scenic mountain in Kunming and the best place in central Yunnan. It was approved by the State Council as a national key scenic spot in 1988 and is a 3A level , Awesome, right? The scenery inside is even more amazing! Among them, Xishan Longmen is even more famous. There is a saying that "once you climb the Longmen, your worth will be doubled". The citizens of Kunming have the custom of "Playing on the Western Mountains on March 3rd". We immediately followed the tour guide to climb Xishan Mountain.

The path up the mountain is not very wide and very steep. There are many temples on the mountain, and there is one almost every time you go up the stone steps. Among these temples, Datian Pavilion is the most famous, and our destination is there. As we climbed higher and higher, the path became narrower and narrower. The steep stone walls wrapped the path, forming a natural fence. After swimming and walking along the way, we finally came to Longmen. There is a stone-carved archway at the entrance, with the word "Dragon Gate" carved on it, and a stone bead that is smooth when touched by tourists. It is said that as long as you touch this stone bead, you will be blessed with wealth and good luck. . Entering the dragon gate, you will see a small semicircular platform. Standing on the platform, with the blue sky above and the cliff below, you can see the Dianchi Lake five hundred miles away, with vast mist and steaming clouds. There are white sails dotted on the lake, and gulls are flying and swallows are dancing. Then look at the green mountains in the distance and the white clouds, which are poetic and picturesque. It's really ecstatic! Go back and take a look at Datian Pavilion. This small temple pavilion is not made of wood, but carved on a natural rock. It is wonderfully designed and amazing! The one engraved in the middle is Kuixing, the god who governs articles, also known as Wenquxing; the north eagle is Wenchang Emperor, the god who governs fame and fortune; the south eagle is Guan Shengdijun, the god who rules over subduing demons. Behind them are engraved pictures of galloping horses, auspicious clouds lingering, cranes flying in pairs, and a peach tree with green leaves and red fruits, lifelike! I knelt down and worshiped in front of Kuixing, hoping that he would bless me to improve my academic performance to a higher level.

In the afternoon, we ended our trip to the Western Mountains. I believe tomorrow will be even more exciting!

Day 5

Today is the last day of our trip to Yunnan. We will continue to stay in Kunming and visit the Grand View Tower.

This Daguan Tower was originally built during the Qing Dynasty. After many restorations, it has now been expanded into a Daguan Tower Park. It is world-famous because of the "first long couplet in the country" hanging in the building. .

This long couplet was written by Sun Beard Weng, a poor scholar from Kunming. It has 180 characters and is rare in ancient and modern times. Our Chairman Mao once highly praised this couplet and commented that it was "unprecedented and unique".

Walking into the Grand View Tower, the scenery in the garden is indeed beautiful and unparalleled. The first thing that caught my eye was the large lotus pond beside the road. This is the lotus blooming season. There are already many lotus flowers in the lotus pond with their smiling faces facing the bright sunshine, showing their charming grace to visitors. But "red flowers need to be set off by green leaves." If there are no green leaves, no one will appreciate the beautiful lotus. Look! The emerald green lotus leaves are rolling with crystal water drops, and the clear lines expand from the middle to all sides. How cute! The dazzling sunlight shines on the lotus pond, and the water drops sparkle, as if there is a new life trembling on every green leaf, and it looks full of vitality!

Going further, you will reach the Dian Lake. There is a three-story pavilion on the lakeside, which is the famous Daguan Tower. I spotted the long couplet in front of the building at a glance, so I stopped and slowly admired it. The second line of the second line reads: "Five hundred miles away from the Dianchi Lake, running towards the eyes, with shawls on the shore, joy is boundless in the vastness. Look at the divine horse in the east, the spiritual instrument in the west, winding in the north, flying in the south, and the rhyme of the master. Gentlemen, you might as well choose to come to Luozhou, comb your hair with wind and mist, and decorate the sky with green feathers and red clouds. Don't let down the surrounding fragrant rice, clear sand, and nine-summer hibiscus. "Three springs willows." The second line reads: "Thousands of years of history are in my heart. I drink wine and sigh, who is the hero? I think of the Han Dynasty, the iron pillars of the Tang Dynasty, the jade ax of the Yuan Dynasty. It took all the effort to move the mountains, but the beaded curtains and painted buildings could not catch up with the evening rain and the morning clouds; the remaining monuments were broken, and only a few pestles and sparse bells, half a river of fishing fire, two rows of autumn wild geese, and a pillow were obtained. Qingshuang." Reading it carefully, it really has a unique charm. The first couplet writes about the picturesque scenery seen on the Grand View Tower, urging literati to come and watch it. The second couplet writes about the great achievements of the great heroes of the past dynasties that were forgotten in a blink of an eye, expressing the poet's full enthusiasm.

After admiring the long couplet, we climbed up to the Grand View Tower to enjoy the scenery mentioned in the couplet. The Jinma Mountain in the east is like a galloping horse; the Jade Rooster Mountain in the west is like a flying phoenix; the Snake Mountain in the north is winding like a long worm; the Heshan Mountain in the south is undulating like a soaring crane. The Biji Mountain to the west is the Xishan Mountain we went to yesterday. From a distance, it looks like a beautiful woman lying on both sides of the Dian Lake, looking graceful and charming. Looking at Dianchi Lake again, it is vast, with vast expanse of blue waves, beautiful and charming. The lake is surrounded by rice fields, lotus flowers, and willows, which is intoxicating!

More than an hour later, we reluctantly left the Grand View Tower. After lunch, we visited the last attraction on our trip to Yunnan - the Golden Horse and Jade Rooster, thus ending all our trips in Yunnan. In the evening, we got on the train home.

The scenery of Yunnan is something I will never forget. Just like what others say, "I don’t want to go back when I go, but I still want to go back." However, this trip to Yunnan not only broadened my horizons, but also made me understand a lot of local customs and habits, which benefited me a lot. Yunnan Travel Essay, 400 words

We have been committed to traveling to the ancient city of Lijiang in Yunnan these days.

The Old Town of Lijiang is a very beautiful place. The ubiquitous small bridges, flowing water, bluestone slabs, houses with antique civil structures, and the ancient tree branches hanging in the water all seem to be telling a story. The ancient story of the ancient city.

I found an interesting street: it is the bar street. There are all kinds of weird bar names on this street, and five out of ten are named: "One Meter of Sunshine". Why? Because an entrepreneurial romance TV series called "One Meter of Sunshine" was filmed here. The names of inns and stations are also all kinds of weird: "Inn No. 68", "Soft Time Inn", "Jinjiang Inn", "Thousands of Miles Alone Riding Station"... There is even a signboard of "Thousands of Miles Alone Riding". language. When introducing hotel projects, most of them use words such as "Reading books requires money"; "It's free to be in a daze"; "Welcome to buy discs" and so on. Various inns are designed in an antique style, making people feel as if they are really living in ancient times. The most amazing thing is that almost every inn is built along a small river, and there is a small bridge in front of most hotels. At night, the lights are brightly lit and it is extremely lively. The barbecue restaurant business is even more prosperous. They have everything you want. The food that has been roasted by the hot fire and is charred on the outside and tender on the inside is really mouth-watering. At night, the ancient town does not use ordinary street lights. Instead, every house hangs a lantern. Thousands of lights illuminate the whole town all night long. The reflection of the red lanterns on the water makes people even more profound. Feel the beauty of the ancient city.

We stayed at the Jinjiang Inn, the best of the private inns renovated from a Naxi residence. It is a super luxurious three-story residential courtyard, but the owner used it as a commercial store. From the third-story roof, you can overlook the entire eaves and roofs of the ancient town. They are all a group of ancient buildings with eaves tilted at four corners. In Lijiang, such inns can be seen everywhere. They are unique, simple, quiet, friendly and natural, and always make people miss them.

Lijiang’s streams are famous for their clear water. The water here flows down from the famous Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, which can be called the source of water. At the entrance to the ancient city, the rapid water flow caused the waterwheel to make a gurgling sound.

The aquatic plants on the bottom of the river have been smoothed by the current, and all kinds of fish are standing still. There is a big fish king about 10 centimeters long, but even such a big fish can't swim upstream. It can be seen that the water is so fragile. Urgent, the water is clear.

The beautiful ancient city is visited by a large number of tourists every day. Although there are many warning signs in the ancient city: "The ancient city of Lijiang is my home, and the environment of the ancient city depends on everyone." However, there are many people who are unconscious. During the few days I lived in the ancient city, I felt that the water here was under serious threat. Looking down from time to time, I found that in addition to fish, there were cigarette butts, mineral water bottles, small bags, etc. in the water. I even saw two men spitting thick spit into the water when no one was looking. Uh-huh! There are countless women washing clothes and cleaning shoes in the stream. And...and...downstream...the vegetable washers! Oh my god, protecting the water in the ancient city is a mark, destroying the water in the ancient city is a taboo! I hope everyone will protect the pure water resources that nature has given us! This is what I most want to say to everyone after visiting the ancient city. A 300-word essay about travel

1. Clues in travel notes

Some people say that writing an article is like stringing beads. Without a clue to connect the various elements, the article will be Fragmented, or disorganized. This is especially true when writing travel notes. There must be a reasonable clue running through it. This clue can also be said to be the order of writing.

In travel notes, probably the most commonly used writing order is whereabouts. That is to say, it is written in the order of tour. For example, if you write a travel diary about a visit to the zoo, you can describe it one by one in the order of the visit. In addition, the organizational relationship and orientation relationship of the scenery are also used as clues for travel notes. We suggest that when you first learn to write travel notes, you must use certain clues to organize the article, so as to develop a clear writing habit from the beginning.

2. The subject in travel notes

The subject refers to the person or group who does it. Since it is a tour, there must be a main body of the tour. In the writing of travel notes, if there are no people, it is almost the same as expository essays or scene description prose. There are many different ways to point out the subject in the travel notes, which can be pointed out at the beginning. For example, at the beginning of a travel note, an author wrote: "Today, the students in our class were invited by the head teacher, Mr. Li. "We visited Peking University under the guidance of the teacher", and pointed out that the main body of the travel note is "the classmates in our class and Teacher Li"; in addition, the main body of the travel note can also appear naturally during the writing process, or it can be pointed out at the end of the article.

3. Scenery description in travel notes

The description of scenery is also an important part of travel notes. People are the subject and scenery is the object. Scenery descriptions in travel notes should be written selectively and focused according to the needs of writing. The description of the scenery in the travel notes should best match the theme of the article. For example, when a classmate wrote an article about visiting the Great Wall, he focused on describing the ancient grandeur of the Great Wall and the clean and tidy surrounding scenic environment, and closely combined the description of the scenery with the themes of cultural relic protection and environmental protection.

4. Places in travel notes

When writing travel notes, be sure to describe the places visited or visited, such as aquariums, prairie, science and technology museums, etc.

5. Travel notes should be prioritized

Although travel notes are records of the tour process, they are not comprehensive records. I once saw a travel diary written by a college student. He started writing it when he got up in the morning, and then wrote about how he had breakfast, how he went out and took the bus, what he saw on the road, what happened... he wrote them all one by one, until he finally returned home. Home. A travelogue, written with tens of thousands of words. But there's nothing impressive about it. This kind of writing is not a travelogue, but a running account, and no one wants to read it.

"There are indeed times like this when there are countless colorful butterflies coming here to gather, and the colors are gorgeous, like clouds and brocade. In the past few years, the number of butterflies has decreased. According to relevant inspections, the main reasons are firstly that the local climate has turned drier, causing butterflies to migrate, and secondly that large amounts of insecticides have been used in rural areas, which accidentally injured many butterfly larvae. However, in the past two or three years, with the gradual restoration of ecological balance and people's conscious efforts to protect butterflies, the number of butterflies gathering every year has increased day by day.
