On the vast land of our motherland,

there are countless breathtaking landscapes.

Each beautiful scenery

has its own unique charm:

magnificent mountains and rivers,

winding ancient towns,

mysterious unique landforms...

...

There is always a place

that you dream of heading to.

Cross mountains and rivers, meet the distance.

There is plenty of time; go one by one.

After visiting Jiuzhaigou, no other water can compare.

The water in Jiuzhaigou is gentle and gorgeous.

All year round, Jiuzhaigou is beautiful in every season:

Spring: fragrant paths full of flowers,

Summer: lush green shade,

Autumn: brilliant and dazzling,

Winter: wrapped in silver.

Jiuzhaigou, a paradise on earth favored by God.

The world's unique red stone organ.

Bright red stones in the mountains like a ribbon.

Snowy mountains, forests, glaciers...

...

Like a dreamlike wonderland.

In spring, listen to the tender awakening.

In summer, wander in the mysterious forest.

In autumn, bloom with brilliant splendor.

In winter, wait for the rare sunlight on the golden mountain.

Four seasons, spring, summer, autumn, winter.

Each season brings different expectations,

and harvests different surprises.

Tibet's Potala Palace.

A mysterious palace on the snowy plateau.

Majestic, magnificent, and yearning.

Under the blue sky,

gold-plated roofs, black prayer flags.

In the splendor of the Potala Palace,

you can see faith and power.

Xinjiang's Karakul Lake.

Karakul Lake is the highest lake on the Pamir Plateau,

and also one of the most beautiful lakes in China.

From afar, the lake surface sparkles with silver light.

Up close, the lake is clear as a mirror.

The lake and mountain scenery are very beautiful.

Xinjiang's Nalati Grassland.

Blue sky, tender green grass,

beautiful scenery, unique landforms.

Looking into the distance, it seems to connect with the sky.

It is vast and peaceful.

A gentle breeze brings the fragrance of wildflowers.

Everything about the grassland is wonderful.

Yunnan's Dali Chongsheng Temple.

Dali, a city that haunts one's dreams.

Half mountains and wilderness, half world.

Apart from the gentle tranquility of Cangshan and Erhai,

there is also the lingering chanting of Chongsheng Temple.

Yunnan's Potatso National Park.

Mirror-like alpine lakes,

pastures with abundant water and grass,

wetlands blooming with flowers,

primeval forests where birds and animals often appear.

If there is a Garden of Eden in this world,

then it must be Potatso.

Nanxi River has the romance of 'green peaks recalling distant moons,

green vines sorrowing for chirping apes'.

Country life is like a poem,

with the leisure of 'picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, serenely viewing the southern mountains',

and the scenery of 'the beauty of mountains and waters, discussed since ancient times'.

The leisurely three-hundred-mile Nanxi River,

with clear water, strange rocks, waterfalls, and ancient villages,

is like a three-dimensional landscape painting scroll.

The towering green mountains and clear blue waters

create the unique beauty of Thousand Island Lake.

Every second, every frame here

feels like a blockbuster.

Zhejiang's Yunhe Rice Terraces.

Yunhe Rice Terraces were first developed in the early Tang Dynasty,

with a history of over 1,000 years,

covering a total area of 51 square kilometers.

Sunlight passes through the gaps in the clouds,

and where the light reaches, patches of golden yellow shine.

The terraces are scattered randomly among the high mountains and ridges.

In the morning, cooking smoke curls up,

winding among the clouds and mist of the terraces.

It is so beautiful.

That place has become the most beautiful countryside in everyone's dreams,

a countryside in a painting from a dream.

Changbaishan, a place of immortals.

Its name contains 'long-lasting companionship, till white-haired'.

As soon as winter arrives, it becomes as beautiful as a fairyland.

Flakes of white snow fall on Changbaishan,

presenting a world carved from jade.

Liaoning's Benxi Water Cave.

The world inside the cave,

a thousand postures, mysterious and fantastic.

Appreciate the uncanny workmanship of nature.

Here, listen to the wind, watch the sea,

enjoy the time of tranquility.

Harbin's Saint Sophia Cathedral.

The exotic Saint Sophia Cathedral,

the romantic cathedral on postcards,

always gives me the illusion of being in a foreign country.

In the snow, it shows its most beautiful appearance,

like a fairy-tale kingdom from childhood dreams.

Hubei's Enshi Grand Canyon.

The roads of Enshi Grand Canyon are more tiring than those into Tibet.

The water of Hefeng Pingshan is as pure as Lake Yamdrok.

Being in the canyon,

you will feel a dreamlike sense of returning to simplicity.

The canyon is empty, cliffs stand tall, emerald water surrounds.

Only when you are there do you understand

that the hardships on the way are not worth one ten-thousandth of this beauty.

All the fatigue is worth it.

Phoenix Ancient City has a Tuojiang River that runs through the city,

winding past the ancient city walls.

The unique stilted buildings

and the layered green Nanhua Mountain behind them

are reflected in the heart of Tuojiang.

A few light boats float on the Tuojiang River.

Not far away is the Rainbow Bridge.

Walking on the bluestone slabs,

looking at the surrounding buildings,

I wonder what scene it is,

and whether I can meet the beautiful Cuicui.

As dusk falls and the sun sets,

the setting sun reflected on the lake,

accompanied by the laughter of children by the river,

and the worldly rhythms of life on the stilted buildings,

all seems so beautiful and pleasant.

Above the city walls is the accumulation of vicissitudes of history.

Below the city walls is the life of Xi'an people.

In a daze, there is also a sense of time travel.

If there is a place where flowers

bloom brilliantly across the land,

that place must be Qinghai Lake.

July's Qinghai Lake is the brightest.

Cool and pleasant wind,

large clusters of clouds,

like a fairyland on earth.

It is a longing for the pure plateau,

a beautiful anticipation of encountering beauty.

The plateau clouds within reach,

the blue lake water that breaks the heart,

the blooming flower sea in the remaining summer.

There, pick up the long-lost heartbeat.

Sunshine, tidal flats, sea trenches,

under the sunlight,

form a fantastic light and shadow,

making the beach clear and vivid.

As long as you live, keep your love for life,

see all the beauty in the world,

and leave precious memories.
