A Wonderful Trip
During last summer vacation, I went to Zhangjiajie with my parents and we had a great time. Among all the experiences I had during the trip, climbing the beautiful mountains was the most unforgettable one. Zhangjiajie’s mountains and forests showed me the real meaning of “beauty of nature”. The strangely shaped rocks were so amazing that I could hardly believe I was in the real world. What’s more, I could even see the mountain tops above the clouds. It was really exciting.
I’m very glad to have taken this wonderful trip. And I will never forget it.
