My First Trip to Tibet

On the three hours’ flight from Xi’an to Lhasa, we had a wonderful time, talking and laughing all the way. The great views of the mountains below, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, got us     1    (excite). I couldn’t help taking some pictures.

Our plane landed     2    (safe) at Lhasa Airport at 11: 30 am. The airport is located at the sea-level of over 3500 metres, making it one of the     3    (high) airports in the world. From there you can fly to many big cities both home and abroad.

Leaving the airport, we took a bus to the city of Lhasa,     4     is 3600 meters above the sea level. Everybody felt a little bit uncomfortable, and some,     5    (include) me, even had     6     headache. What surprised us along the way was warm sunshine, blue sky and clear water. Mountains were everywhere, but no trees on them. The driver said if there were     7     (tree) on the mountains, the city of Lhasa would have more oxygen!

The tour guide     8     (arrange) for us to stay in a downtown hotel, mainly for two reasons – free internet access and domestic telephone. What’ s more, all the rooms were large     9     modern facilities and the famous Potala Palace was just within a stone’s throw. Lhasa was smaller than I had thought before. It took you about RMB 10     10    (take) a taxi in the downtown area.

4 . Egypt ranks among the world’ s oldest civilizations and is famous for its ancient pyramids.     1     For thousands of years, this world wonder has wowed visitors and brought in countless money for the locals. However, thanks to Covid-19, there is a historic clean up at the pyramids.

The virus killed off Egypt ‘s tourism and with it, the livelihoods of millions. Like Ashraf - - unable to feed his family, he kept his favourite camel, but had to sell two others. “It has been tough on everyone,” he says. “I have no money.     2    ”.

The ancient attractions are now reopening, but they’ re empty except for a few local visitors. It’ s a blow after tourism had just recovered from years of disorder.

Tour guide Shahenda loves taking tourists around her country. Since the pandemic, she’s lost a thousand holiday bookings.     3     She said, “We had to cancel flights, hotels, and many other arrangements. Everyone is badly affected. We have lost our jobs, and then you will.”

According to Khalid Al-Anany, tourism minister, Egypt lost around one billion dollars per month and it’s expected that the country will still lose a lot of money during the next coming weeks and months.

    4     The tourism minister is on a mission to bring back business and bring the economy back to life, highlighting new hygiene and safety rules and showing how foreigners can now fly in to some beach resorts.

Where to go on your Cambodia holiday

Siem Reap, one of Cambodia’s biggest cities, is the gateway to Angkor and also has its own attractions in busy markets packed with local artworks, wooden carvings and Khmer textiles.

Phnom Penh, Cambodia’s capital, is a lively metropolis (大都会) of traditional markets, modern developments and French colonial architecture. Trips to the Royal Palace and its Silver Pagoda, as well as the National Museum, offer striking Khmer architecture and exploration of Cambodian culture.

Riverside Escapes & Beach Holidays in Cambodia

Outside of the cities, Cambodia has many beaches, rivers and islands. On the south coast, the beach destinations of Sihanoukville and Kep provide seaside escapes and fresh seafood, with the sleepy riverside town of Kampot (home of Kampot pepper) and the idyllic(田园诗般的) island paradise of Koh Rong nearby. Or, take a trip to the gentle and quiet Mekong riverside, Kratie, which is the best place to visit in Cambodia to see the rare freshwater Irrawaddy dolphins.
