    On the weekend, I came to the Guishan Han Tomb in Xuzhou with anticipation, and opened a journey through time and space. Just stepping into the scenic spot, the simple architectural style and tranquil atmosphere made me feel like I was in the middle of the river of history. Along the winding path, I reached the entrance to the tomb. Into the tomb, the narrow and deep passage seemed to tell the old story under the dim light. The layout of the tomb is rigorous, the stone room is exquisitely carved, and every detail shows the wisdom and ingenuity of the ancient craftsmen. I carefully observed the patterns on the stone walls, although they are still visible after thousands of years, as if they are showing me the life scene and cultural style of the Han Dynasty. In the tomb room, I also saw many unearthed cultural relics, these precious cultural relics made me have a deeper understanding of the history of the Han Dynasty. Out of the tomb, I stood at the top of Guishan Mountain, overlooking the surroundings, my heart full of emotion. Guishan Han Tomb is not only an ancient mausoleum, but also a wordless history book, let me appreciate the vastness and depth of Han culture. This tour made me harvest a lot, but also made me love the long history and culture of the motherland more.

    I finally arrived at Langya Mountain after many years of looking forward to it, just to see the Drunken Old Man's Pavilion. The scenic area can be explored on foot or via internal public transportation. The electric shuttle bus only goes as far as Langya Temple; getting to the South Heavenly Gate requires climbing many steps. If you don't want to climb the steps, you can take a bus directly to the South Heavenly Gate at the entrance and then walk down the mountain, which is much easier. The staff at the scenic area were very friendly and patient, especially the girl at the Drunken Old Man's Pavilion station – she was wonderful.

    天隐.天隐.

    The Bao Park has a good environment, good greening, suitable for walking and relaxing, especially in the evening. Bao Gong Temple and Qingfeng Pavilion are a bit historical, but there are not many exhibits, just take a look at the flowers. The hair dryer by the lake is very cool, and you can see many locals exercising and walking their babies here. Tickets are free, which is very conscience, but there are some small attractions charged separately, and it feels like there is no need to spend money to go in. Overall, it is a citizen park. It is okay to go shopping on the way. It may feel a bit flat to punch in.

    The Huai'an Prefectural Government Office is a model of Ming and Qing dynasty government architecture in Jiangnan, its upturned eaves and corners conveying the grandeur and authority of a major water transport hub. The main hall is imposing, and artifacts such as instruments of torture and documents are well-preserved, offering a direct glimpse into the ancient administrative and judicial processes. The courtyard is well-organized, with inscriptions and couplets bearing the weight of history, combining architectural aesthetics with cultural value.

    The float parade must be opened, and you can also interact with the actors. The proper sense of ritual and participation is not in the queue at Disney's back of the crowd. I like ❤️ very much.
