Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have. Imagine how Italian traveller Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil, seeing a way of life quite different from anything he'd seen before.
And how great must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia? His brain must have been packed with everything he'd seen and heard,leading to the founding of the Silk Road.
Some people have travelled all over the world,and travel is a way of life to them. They perhaps know what to expect before they travel. That's why the best travel is when it's for the first time. Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States. Of course, he's probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on TV , and the White House, and all the other famous sights. But none of that would compare to the thrill of looking out of the cabin window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view.
Although travel is often just for recreation,_it's also educational. We may not know that we are getting an education, but we still are.
We're learning every day: new words in a new language, new people, and new ways of life. But this learning takes place in the school of the world, not the classroom. One of the lessons we learn is undoubtedly a moral one. As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn't necessarily the best way. The British politician Benjamin Disraeli summed this up well when he said, “Travel teaches toleration.”
