Although "reading thousands of books is better than taking Wan Li Road", do you think it is better to read more or travel more?

I think it's better to read more books and travel more if you can, but if you have to choose between the two, I think you should read more books.

Why? First of all, traveling is really time-consuming, from planning a trip to making a strategy, and then going out to travel. It will take a lot of time, at least a week. But reading is different. You can read anywhere, and you can stop quickly if you want. It takes a few hours at most to read a book. Compared with this, of course, reading is a better choice, and most ordinary people don't have that much time to travel. And if you spend a long time traveling, you may not get as much as reading.

Secondly, traveling is really expensive. In my own experience, a three-day trip to the surrounding cities costs almost 1000 yuan, not to mention the kind of cross-provincial and transnational travel. Where does an ordinary person get more money to travel? But reading is cheaper than traveling, and a book costs tens of dollars. The money spent on a trip can buy dozens of books. Moreover, reading can enrich oneself, broaden one's horizons, and even improve one's thoughts, which tourism can't do. So no matter how you look at it, I think reading is an activity that costs less and gains more than traveling.

Of course, this does not mean that people should not travel. I'm just saying that I think we should choose between reading more and traveling more. Tourism also needs proper tourism, because tourism brings people a lot of happiness.
