Standing Indian Campground is one of several campgrounds located inside the Nantahala National Forest. Established in 1920, the Nantahala National Forest got its name from the Cherokee word meaning “Land of the Noonday Sun”. The half-a-million-acre forest is also one of four managed by the United States Forest Service and is settled deep within the mountains.
The National Forest is also home to three appointed Wilderness Areas and two Wild and Scenic Rivers. These famed rivers also offer world-class kayaking, canoeing, whitewater rafting, boating, water-skiing, fishing, and swimming. For hikers, the famous Appalachian Trail runs directly through the forest, so don’t be alarmed if you see a hiker walking on the trail. In addition, like many national forests in North Carolina, camping is free of charge at several spots in Nantahala National Forest. At this campground, you can also camp at a height of 3,880 feet under evergreens near the Nantahala River.
The campground also features several loops (环形) that are perfect for tent camping and large enough for RVs. In addition, Standing Indian is a convenient spot for travellers passing through, yet ideal enough for those who want to stay longer.

Phuket Aquarium
Phuket Aquarium is a modest, government-run attraction but it’s not a bad place to spend an afternoon on the cheap. It provides different exhibitions and you (and even your kids) can learn a lot about Southeast Asian freshwater and saltwater creatures there. It opens daily from 8: 30 am to 4: 30 pm.
Phuket Thaihua Museum
It houses a photo exhibition and video media which tell the history of the Chinese people in Phuket and displays on mining, local clothes, Sino-Portuguese architecture, local foods and traditions and culture of Phuket. The Museum opens every day, between 9: 00 am and 5: 00 pm.
Phuket Zoo
It’s set in tropical gardens shaded by big trees. The zoo has a large number of workers who can speak several languages. They are happy to answer everyone’s “why” questions. If you get hungry on the tour, there are different foods for you, but you must pay for them. It’s open daily from 8: 30 am to 6: 00 pm.
Pung Chang Cave
It is a destination for tourists who love adventure since rafts are required to travel through it. It takes around one hour and a half to tour this cave, which is about 600 meters long. To take this trip, you have to reach the cave between 10: 00 am and 2: 00 pm.

【推荐3】My time here in China is going well. I love my new school and classmates. Over the October holiday, my parents and I are planning to go to Xi’an to see the Terra-cotta Army. I’ve heard that it is an amazing sight, and I can’t wait to go. To me, the story of the Terracotta Army is almost unbelievable. It’s amazing that there are more than 8,000 statues, and no one in modern times knew about them until the 1970s.
We’re also planning to visit several other places in Xi’an. My dad and I are both look ing forward to going to the ShaanXi History Museum, because my dad loves history and I have heard that this museum is known as a “Chinese treasure house”! We’re also going to the Xi’an City Wall and a few other famous sights.
We’re taking the train, leaving the day before the October holiday begins. We’re arriving at 9: 30a.m. and will start sightseeing right away, so I hope we sleep well on the train! I guess that’s all for now! I’ll write again soon and send photos! Do you have any plans for the coming holiday? Hope to hear from you soon.
