Among all the cities in China, I love my hometown best. Locating in the southwest of China, it has a mild climate and fantastic natural sceneries. It’s neither too hot or too cold and beautiful plants can be found everywhere. But it’s not the natural beauty that attracted me most. That I like best is the architecture here. Compared with other cities, there aren’t a good many of high-rise buildings here. Besides, you can find varieties of classical Chinese buildings, which remind people about the past and create relaxed atmosphere. Also, the friendly people and delicious food here adds its charm. As a local student, I really feel fortunately to live in this city.
8 . Scotland is packed with beautiful places to visit and you could honestly spend months and months exploring everything this wonderful country has to offer! Next I’m going to take you through some of the best place to visit in Scotland, based on where we have personally visited so far!
Glen Coe
If you asked me where my favourite place to visit in all of Scotland is... I would say, Glen Coe. The whole area of Glen Coe constantly had my face in shock due to the beauty that I was witnessing1 was witnessing (亲眼看见). It’s just a stream of dramatic mountains, lakes, rugged (崎岖的) beauty and more.
Fort William
Fort William is probably one of the most well-known places to visit in Scotland. It’s a popular tourist destination thanks to being home to the UK’s tallest mountain: Ben Nevis. Fort William is also the starting point for one of the world’s most famous train rides: The Jacobite. Harry Potter fans will recognize it as the Hogwarts Express, and this train ride will take you through the beautiful countryside, crossing some iconic Harry Potter filming locations such as the Dumbledore’s Grave and the Glenfinnan Viaduct!
Isle Of Skye
This island feels totally different from other parts of Scotland and is truly rugged and ready! There are many hot spots to explore including the Old Man of Storr, the Fairy Glen. I even stayed on a private island with its very own lighthouse, which was one of the coolest places I’ve ever visited and one of the most romantic places stay in Scotland.
Cairngorms National Park
This is the largest national park in the UK so it’s another popular place to visit in Scotland and it’s no surprise why. It’s absolutely beautiful and there’s so much happening at the Cairngorms National Park! From skiing or meeting local reindeers, you’ll not go bored and you’ll be surrounded by beauty the entire time.

9 . The southern New Zealand town of Kaitangata appears the chief example of the countryside landscapes the island is known for; it’s lush (苍翠的), hilly, green, and peaceful. Only about 800 people live there, and it’s a mere eight minutes from the coastline.
For those who prefer the rural, slow lifestyle and community feel in their living environment, it’s basically perfect. And here’s the best part:New Zealand desperately wants you to move there. Seriously.
The small town is heavily involved in necessary industries relating to dairy (乳制品) processing and freezing works, which more than fill the area’s economic needs. In this very unique case, that presents a real problem: there are around 1,000 vacant jobs and too much affordable housing for the residents to fill.
“We have got youth unemployment down to two,” Mayor Bryan Cadogan says, “Not 2 percent — just two unemployed young people.”
So in response to this distinctive crisis, Cadogan and the town’s bank, lawyers, and community services are launching a recruitment (征募) campaign to try and attract candidates to the area with housing and land packages costing only 230,000 NZ dollars, or almost 165,000 US dollars.
According to the local residents, “Kai”, as citizens call it, is warm and mainly concerned with the community.
“This is an oldfashioned community, we don’t lock our houses, we let kids run free,” a local dairy farmer and thirdgeneration native named Evan Dick told The Guardian.
“We have jobs, we have houses, but we don’t have people. We want to make this town vibrant again, and we are waiting with open arms.”
