MAKING THEIR MARKWhile it can be tough to persuade some teens to embrace art, you’ll find it easier in Bristol. You won’t have to rack your brains (绞尽脑汁) to encounter the handiwork of the city’s famous one, because there are more than 200-odd street artists in the city where The Wall offers a two-hour tour of the must-see works and Bristol’s 30 years of graffiti history.

8 . A river cruise is a travel experience like no other. From a cruise along the gentle waters of the Danube to a journey through picturesque French countryside, it is such a peaceful and scenic experience. Here’s what to expect as a first timer.
1. Scenic routes
Cruising is a cost-effective way of having a big adventure as you’ll visit several places during your trip. In fact, you can expect to visit a new destination every day on your river cruise. River cruises offer stunning views of the countryside, as they navigate through rivers and canals. You’ll often pass by picturesque towns and villages and enjoy beautiful full-view of riverside landscapes and charming towns.
2. Culture up close
A river cruise allows you to be immersed in your surroundings as you make your way along your route. Plus, you can enjoy guided excursions (短途旅行) to historical sites and local experiences at each destination.
3. Smooth sailing
Rivers are generally calmer than open seas, so you’re less likely to experience seasickness on a river cruise. It’s a smooth ride throughout, even as you pass through the river locks that feature on many European waterways. Travel with like-minded guests.
4. Onboard luxuries
While river cruise ships are smaller, they still offer facilities, such as lounges, fitness centers, and sometimes even pools or hot tubs. Onboard dining options vary, but you can expect a mix of region al and international cuisine. Dining is often open seating. There may be no formal nights, and casual clothes are usually acceptable.

9 . Top 5 of the most beautiful beaches in Malta
St. Peter’s Pool
St. Peter’s Pool is one of the most beautiful and breathtaking natural pools in Malta and is located near Marsaxlokk at the tip of Delimara Point in the southwest of Malta. The sea at St. Peter’s Pool is crystal clear with amazing blue and light green colors and offers excellent snorkelling(潜水管潜泳)opportunities. Many young people go there to show their courage by diving from the cliff.
Blue Lagoon
Probably the most famous place on the tiny island of Comino. You will be amazed by the beauty of Blue Lagoon. It’s definitely the highlight of Comino. But be careful,if you don’t like crowded places,avoid going there in summer. However,Comino has other qualities which make the charms of the island,such as the caves,labyrinths of passages,and its glassy water at 28 C° in summer.
Golden Bay
Golden Bay is one of the most popular beaches in Malta, and it’s also one of the most touristic. A very beautiful beach of golden sand and easier to access than its neighbor Ghajn Tuffieha. The beach is pleasant because it is located in green setting.
Paradise Bay
The small bay “Paradise Bay” is located a short distance from Cirkewwa starting point of Gozo’s ferries. Very famous famous among snorkellers, the beach is also unique for being at the feet of towering cliffs and it overlooks the beautiful islands of Gozo and Comino Island. It’s a very popular beach in Malta.
Ghajn Tuffieha Bay
Ghajn Tuffieha Bay is one of the few beaches in northwest Malta with golden sand and clear water. It’s peaceful and surrounded by cliffs and greenery, making it perfect for relaxing, swimming, and enjoying nature. Accessibly by a scenic staircase, it’s a hidden treasure away from crowded tourist areas.

A.Weather and surroundings. | B.Golden sand and clear water. |

10 . The Greek historian Herodotus is said to have made one of the earliest lists of the Seven Wonders of the World. These were man-made structures, including the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. More recent times saw natural alternatives to these wonders of classical architecture proposed: waterfalls, mountains, canyons, reefs. Dramatic landscapes, features and wildlife, and the pleasure and excitement they offer to visitors, are staples (主要部分) of tourism.
As environmental awareness has risen, attitudes to such sightseeing have changed. Yes, it is exciting to visit remote forests or spot rare species.But travelling to very distant destinations is carbon-intensive when flights or long road journeys are involved, and conservation can be made more difficult as well as assisted by sightseers. There is a balance to be struck, and some governments and businesses around the world try to maximise the benefits while minimising the harm. Colombia, for example, recently introduced laws aimed at promoting sustainable tourism.
Most of us understand better than ever that there are costs as well as benefits associated with exploring. One of the six pledges (誓言) proposed by an environmental campaign launched last month, The Jump, is to “holiday local”, taking short flights once every three years and long flights very rarely. Fortunately, the UK’s 15 national parks, 86 areas of outstanding natural beauty (known in Scotland as national scenic areas), and countless other landscapes that are without formal status, but beloved nonetheless, mean that there is no shortage of special places for domestic nature tourists to visit--while a host of European beauty spots are accessible by rail.
One recent survey found that Windsor Great Park and Kew have become Britain’s most popular attractions, while Covid has created difficulties for indoor spaces which do not apply to outdoor ones.
As we face an environmental emergency that grows ever more dangerous, it is essential to cultivate (培养) appreciation for nature that surrounds us. In a small way, holiday outings to watch dragonflies, kingfishers or seals, or be surrounded by trees that are coming into leaf, could help us to focus on what matters.
