Male Female

The place I want to talk about is last summer when my family went to a small city in Yunnan province called Yangquan County. We went there with my family, and we really appreciated our travel that time because we had some amazing moments there. We saw the sunrise and the rice terraces, which are spectacular landscapes in Yunnan province, and even in all of China, you can never find similar picturesque scenery. So we woke up at 5 AM and drove to the top of the mountain. When we arrived, there were many people crowded on the platform, and we found a corner to wait for the sunrise. I think it's quite an amazing memory for me because while we were waiting for the sunrise, we took a lot of pictures. Even on the way back home, we showed the pictures to our neighbors, and they all praised them. I really appreciate that trip.
