Hello everyone, today we are going to talk about an interesting and emotional topic - that is, the "adventure on the tip of the tongue" in travel. We all know that modern people love to travel, as if every trip is a baptism of the soul, allowing us to find our true selves in an unfamiliar environment. But have you ever thought that sometimes, the true self is actually hidden in a place that we are familiar with but ignore?
Take China as an example, we have a history of 5,000 years of civilization, a vast land of 9.6 million square kilometers, and countless stories and landscapes are hidden everywhere. But unfortunately, when many people think of traveling, the first thing that comes to mind is to go abroad, as if only foreign scenery can satisfy their pursuit of "different".
And it was at this time that a group of Korean tourists came to China. They originally came with the expectation of exotic customs, but they didn't expect that what really moved and shocked them was the Chinese food!
You may not know that in Korea, there is a saying called "kimchi for three meals a day", which means that kimchi is almost inseparable from the table of Koreans. This is because prices in South Korea are relatively high and the wages of ordinary people are not high, so the consumption of high-protein foods such as meat is relatively small. As a result, kimchi has become the most common food on the Korean table. But you know what? In fact, many Koreans don't really like to eat kimchi, but because they don't have a choice.
And when we Korean tourists came to China, they first came to Guangdong, the food capital of southern China. There, they tasted Cantonese cuisine, one of China's eight major cuisines. The freshness of the white-cut chicken, the sweet aroma of the honey-glazed barbecued pork, and the tendon of the Teochew beef balls...... They were amazed by every dish. It was as if they had entered a whole new world, a world full of deliciousness and surprises.
Can you imagine that scenario? A group of Korean tourists sit around a restaurant in Guangdong, with a smile of satisfaction and happiness on their faces. They were tasting delicious food and exchanging feelings with each other. Someone said, "This is the best food I've ever eaten in my life!" Someone said, "I really don't want to go back, I want to stay in China and eat food all the time!" Some even burst into tears with emotion.
Such a scene not only makes us Chinese feel proud and proud, but also makes us wonder: why do we always ignore the beauty around us? Why do we always think that other people's things are the best? In fact, real travel is not only about going to an unfamiliar place to see the scenery and take photos, but also about discovering yourself and feeling life during the journey.
So I want to say: stop blindly pursuing the scenery of foreign countries and take a good look at our own homeland! You will find that there are countless beauties and wonders waiting to be discovered. At the same time, we must also learn to cherish and be grateful for every beauty and happiness around us. Because in this world, the most precious things are often those things that seem ordinary but full of meaning.
Imagine that when these Korean tourists stroll through the streets and alleys of China, attracted by the rich smell of fireworks and infected by the unique Chinese culture, their hearts must be full of surprise and emotion. They may get lost in the old hutongs, but it is this loss that gives them the opportunity to communicate with the local people in depth and listen to their stories about life, history, and inheritance. These stories will undoubtedly make them understand China more deeply and love this land more.
At the same time, these Korean tourists will also find that China's food culture is so colorful. In addition to Cantonese cuisine, there are also spicy and fragrant Sichuan cuisine, light and elegant Su cuisine, and Shandong cuisine with thick oil red sauce...... Each dish contains a profound cultural heritage and unique regional characteristics. While they are tasting the food, they are also savoring the history and culture of China.
This experience is undoubtedly a rare experience for Korean tourists. They began to realize that travel is not only about seeing scenery and taking pictures, but also about spiritual baptism and growth. They begin to re-examine their lives and values, and begin to appreciate and appreciate what they have more.
And this change is not just happening to Korean tourists. When we, the Chinese, begin to pay attention to the beauty around us and begin to cherish and inherit our own culture, we will also undergo the same changes. We will find that our motherland is so beautiful and great, and our culture is so deep and unique. We will love this land more and cherish our identity and culture even more.
Therefore, I would like to say that both Korean tourists and us Chinese ourselves should cherish every opportunity to travel. In the journey, we can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery and experience different cultures, but also find ourselves, feel life, and understand life. Travel is not only an attitude towards life, but also a spiritual pursuit.
Finally, I would like to conclude today's sharing with a quote: "It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read 10,000 books". Let us continue to discover ourselves, feel life, and comprehend life on the way of travel!
