The journey was long but extremely rewarding. The next morning after we set off, we left the crowded city and saw green rolling hills outside the window. In addition to enjoying the beautiful natural scenery, I also watched the lifestyle changes of people along the way. Since the weather was fine all the way, our mood became better and better. What impressed me most were the green mountains and clear rivers in Guilin. This rail trip taught me that slow travel helps us discover more beauty in life. Thanks for your listening! $
