After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

I've been longing for this white horse for a long time! When I was in school, I saw my senior's graduation photo and thought that if I had the chance, I would definitely take a photo sitting on a horse's back. More than a year after graduation! I finally got the chance! I got on! Took the photo! No more regrets about USC! It's really impossible to get on with just one person helping. At least one more person is needed! One side needs the photographer to hold my hand, and the other side needs my husband to support my leg to get up (big thanks to these two helpers). Beautiful photos like this are made this way! “As long as I’m not embarrassed, the embarrassed ones are others.”

#fallcolors My visit to Brookline in autumn felt like stepping into a beautiful painting. The streets were lined with trees glowing in shades of golden yellow, fiery orange, and deep red, while the crisp fall air added an unmistakable New England charm. 🍁✨ I loved walking through the peaceful neighborhoods, surrounded by colorful leaves, beautiful homes, and quiet tree-lined streets. Every turn seemed to bring another picture-perfect autumn scene, from leaves scattered across the sidewalks to sunlight filtering through the changing canopy. There was something wonderfully cozy about experiencing Brookline during fall—the slower pace, the cool breeze, and the vibrant colors transforming the familiar landscape. A simple autumn walk, but one filled with beautiful memories. 🍂❤️ #brooklyn #england #fallcolors #Brookline #Massachusetts #BrooklineMA #NewEngland #AutumnInNewEngland #FallFoliage #AutumnColors #MassachusettsFall #NewEnglandFall #USATravel #AutumnVibes #TravelMemories #NatureLovers #Wanderlust #fallcolors #autumnfoliage

If you ask me what the perfect Florida road trip looks like… imagine turquoise water, pastel Art Deco buildings, Cuban coffee, a convertible cruising along an endless ocean bridge, and sunsets that make you forget to check your phone. 🌅🚗 Welcome to Miami + Key West — where city vibes meet tropical island life! 📍 DAY 1 — Hello, Miami! 🏖️ First stop: Lincoln Road for a little shopping, cute cafés, and people-watching. Then head to South Beach, kick off your shoes, and let the Atlantic Ocean say hello. 🌊 The pastel Art Deco buildings, swaying palm trees, colorful lifeguard towers, and golden-hour beach views? Honestly, your camera roll is about to be FULL. 📸 🍹 Must-try: Cuban sandwiches, fresh seafood, and a refreshing mojito. 📍 DAY 2 — Art, Culture & City Adventures 🎨 Miami has so much more than beaches! 🎨 Wynwood Walls — giant murals, bold colors, and street art everywhere. Every corner feels like a different photo shoot. 🇨🇺 Little Havana — Cuban coffee, cigar shops, Latin music, and lively streets. Grab a cafecito and soak up the atmosphere. 🏛️ Freedom Tower — a landmark with a fascinating history. 🏀 Kaseya Center — home of the Miami HEAT. Even if there’s no game, the arena exterior is worth a quick photo stop. 🛥️ Biscayne Bay Cruise — see Miami’s skyline from the water and enjoy those gorgeous waterfront views. 🐊 Everglades Airboat Tour — swap skyscrapers for wild wetlands and keep your eyes open for alligators! Fair warning: Miami’s personality changes every few kilometres. One minute you’re surrounded by murals, the next you’re cruising past luxury yachts or exploring a Cuban neighbourhood. 😂 📍 DAY 3 — The Ultimate Florida Keys Road Trip 🚗💙 This is the day I’d be most excited about! Hit U.S. Route 1 and drive south towards Key West. The journey itself is part of the adventure — ocean views, little islands, roadside stops, and endless shades of blue. 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — one of the most iconic stretches of road in the Florida Keys. Driving across the ocean feels almost unreal. 📍 Key West Southernmost Point — stop at the famous colourful buoy marking the southernmost point of the continental USA. Yes, it’s touristy. Yes, you’re taking the photo anyway. 😂📸 🚶 Duval Street — explore colourful shops, cafés, historic streets, and the island’s laid-back atmosphere. 🍰 Key lime pie — tangy, creamy, and absolutely worth the calories. 🦞 Fresh seafood — because a Florida Keys trip without seafood would be a crime against your taste buds. 🌅 Finish the day by the ocean and watch the sunset. No rushing, no complicated plans — just warm air, sea breezes, and that island feeling. 📍 DAY 4 — Beaches, Wildlife & Palm Beach 🌴 Start with Fort Lauderdale Beach, where the coastline feels a little more relaxed. Take a stroll along the beach, enjoy the sea breeze, and grab some breakfast before heading north. 🦁 Lion Country Safari — a drive-through wildlife adventure where you can see lions, giraffes, zebras, and other animals. Keep your camera ready, but always follow the park’s wildlife safety rules! 🌺 Palm Beach Island — explore the elegant streets around Worth Avenue, admire the Mediterranean-style architecture, and enjoy the boutiques and beautiful coastal scenery. ✈️ Then it’s time to head to the airport and say goodbye to Florida. Four days might not be enough to see absolutely everything, but it’s enough to experience a little bit of everything: beaches, art, wildlife, city life, island roads, and unforgettable sunsets. 📸 IG PHOTO SPOTS YOU NEED TO SAVE ✨ South Beach — pastel Art Deco buildings and palm-lined streets 🎨 Wynwood Walls — colourful murals and street-style shots 🇨🇺 Little Havana — vintage cars, Cuban cafés, and street scenes 🏀 Kaseya Center — Miami HEAT arena exterior 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — turquoise water stretching into the distance 📍 Southernmost Point — the classic Key West photo 🦁 Lion Country Safari — incredible wildlife encounters 🌅 Key West sunset — the perfect golden-hour finale 💡 A few road-trip tips before you go: 🚗 Renting a car makes the Miami–Key West journey much easier. ☀️ Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and comfortable walking shoes. 🎟️ Check opening hours and book popular tours in advance. 🏀 Check the Miami HEAT schedule if you want to catch a game. 🦁 Check safari admission and animal-viewing rules before visiting. ⏰ Day 4 is ambitious: Lion Country Safari is inland, while Palm Beach is farther north. Allow plenty of driving time, and don’t miss your flight trying to squeeze in one more stop! One more thing: if you’re visiting during peak season, give yourself extra time for traffic, parking, and those “wait, let’s take one more photo” moments. 🤭 Miami gives you the energy. Key West gives you the escape. The road between them gives you the memories. 💙 And honestly? That sounds like a pretty good way to spend four days in America. 🇺🇸🌴 #miami #keywest #floridaroadtrip #miamitravel #keywestflorida #southbeachmiami #wynwoodwalls #littlehavana #sevenmilebridge #southernmostpoint #floridakeys #evergladesnationalparkrk #lioncountrysafari #palmbeachflorida #travelusa #usaroadtrip

Background: The following is about my travel experience during the off-season in November, please don’t argue!!! This special forces one-day trip originated because my family went to Cinque Terre in September, but due to lack of experience, they only visited 1.5 villages and left in a hurry, which was very regrettable. So they kept recommending to me, "You have to go! It’s so beautiful! You should stay a few more days!" Such feelings! That’s when I remembered, isn’t this the Lonely Planet cover!! So I took an early train there. On the way, I felt something was off because the sky was full of dark clouds, destined to be a cloudy day!!! Sure enough, about 80% of this place’s beauty comes from full sunshine and bright sun☀️☀️☀️☀️. Without it, it’s quite dull... But the good thing is, the trains are very punctual with no delays, and the pass price dropped from 27 euros to 14.8 euros (if you don’t visit more than 3 villages, please buy a one-way ticket, which also dropped to about 2 euros). Cinque Terre is commonly abbreviated by village numbers according to geography: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I finally decided on the route 5-4-1-2. Village 5 Monterosso al Mare is the only village with a relatively large beach, suitable for swimming and sunbathing. In autumn and winter, no one swims, but I saw a surprise like a Turner painting ੧ᐛ੭ I really liked it! Village 4 Vernazza has a natural harbor and castle, but without the blessing of a big sunny day, the wall colors are actually not vivid at all, quite ordinary. Village 3 Corniglia is the only one not directly by the sea, located on a hilltop, requiring climbing stairs, relatively quiet. My goal was to see the sea, so I gave it up directly. Village 2 Manarola is the classic postcard angle, with magnificent coastline views, very suitable for photography. I also saw people carrying long lenses preparing to shoot the sunset🌇. Like me, we waited until sunset, but everything was different from what we imagined because the clouds covered the sun, and we didn’t capture anything. Not giving up, I and another couple changed positions to try to shoot the buildings sparkling with lights at night, but it was also fruitless. Village 1 Riomaggiore You can see how lively it is in the peak season, but now in the off-season many shops are closed or under renovation. I feel tourists like me wandering around are very few. On the bright side, it’s quite suitable for selfies🤳 because there’s no one on the road, no need to worry about disturbing others. All the above pictures have been skillfully edited and color-corrected by me to be somewhat viewable. In reality, the naked eye sees them as much darker, so I share them as a reference. If you go in autumn or winter, you really need luck✌︎' ֊' Maybe it’s not worth waking up early for once🌞 (the last roar of a late riser!)

#mytripvlog Beautiful fall color around Dillon Dam

New York is great, but I won’t go a second time 💔|A regular traveler’s honest guide to what to avoid I have to admit, New York’s vibe is truly unique. The Manhattan skyline, the Statue of Liberty at dusk, Central Park’s autumn sunsets, the timeless masterpieces at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, street art, Broadway lights—seeing the hustle and romance of this world-class city in person is truly breathtaking. But after experiencing a solo trip firsthand, the exhaustion, hidden costs, and safety concerns add up. No matter how stunning the sights, it’s hard to want to go back. Keep this honest guide to what to avoid handy! ✨ —— 📢 Honest advice to reconsider, set your expectations early 1. Prices are generally high, and tipping is everywhere Restaurants expect 15%–20% tips by default. You also need to tip for coffee, takeout, and hotel housekeeping. Simple meals on the street start at 120 yuan per person, and full meals are over 300 yuan per person. Accommodation is expensive—basic hotels in Manhattan start at 1,000 yuan per night with small rooms. 2. The city is crowded and chaotic, which is physically draining Manhattan is extremely dense and crowded. Most attractions require walking and subway transfers, often walking tens of thousands of steps daily. Trash and homeless people are common on the streets, very different from the polished scenes in movies and TV shows. 3. The subway is old and unsafe The century-old subway system is outdated, with no air conditioning and strong odors. Late-night cars have a mixed crowd, so keep valuables close. Avoid traveling alone during early morning hours. 4. Many hidden fees and traps Observation decks, boat tours, and museums charge separately. Popular combo tickets are expensive. Street performers charge for photos, public restrooms and luggage storage usually require payment. 5. Huge differences between neighborhoods Uptown Manhattan is prosperous and clean. Brooklyn and some remote areas are chaotic. Avoid walking alone late at night. · — 📝 Essential travel info ✅ Visa: US B1/B2 tourist visa, apply in advance. Have round-trip tickets and hotel bookings ready for inspection ✅ Currency: US dollars. Most malls and restaurants accept credit cards. Carry some cash for emergencies ✅ Best travel time: April–June, September–November for comfortable temperatures. Summers are hot and rainy, winters are very cold ✅ Must-haves: portable anti-theft bag, comfortable walking shoes, power adapter, mask (subway ventilation is poor) · — 🗓 Classic 5-day relaxed itinerary (no boot camp) Day 1 Downtown Manhattan landmarks Statue of Liberty boat tour (buy tickets online in advance) → Wall Street bull → Walk Brooklyn Bridge, capture Manhattan skyline sunset in the evening Day 2 Midtown core shopping district Choose either Empire State Building or Top of the Rock observation deck → Times Square → Broadway show (buy tickets online in advance for better prices) Day 3 Artsy slow day Spend the day wandering Central Park → Metropolitan Museum of Art, allow half a day or more to explore slowly, watch the park sunset in the evening Day 4 Off-the-beaten-path route High Line Park → Chelsea art district → Flatiron Building, experience the city’s popular elevated walkway Day 5 Shopping and rest Shop along Fifth Avenue or visit a lesser-known Jersey City viewpoint to avoid city crowds, then rest before heading home · — 🍽 Food guide, save money and avoid pitfalls 🔶 Affordable must-tries: Shake Shack burgers, New York pizza, bagel breakfast. Local chains offer the best value 🔶 Special experiences: Michelin-starred Manhattan restaurants and trendy steakhouses are overpriced. Regular tourists don’t need to rush to these 💡 Money-saving tips 1. Buy water and snacks at supermarkets; convenience stores near attractions charge double 2. Choose pickup when ordering food to avoid delivery tips 3. Chinatown offers great value Chinese food with flavors familiar to Chinese travelers, much cheaper than Western food ⚠️ Important pitfalls to avoid (learned the hard way) 1️⃣ Safety first: carry your backpack in front, watch your phone and wallet in the subway and crowded areas. Don’t engage with overly friendly strangers on the street or accept gifts—they will demand tips later. 2️⃣ Buy tickets online in advance: lines are long and prices are higher on site. Book Statue of Liberty tours, observation decks, and museums on official websites ahead of time. 3️⃣ Remember tipping rules: restaurant bills don’t include tips; you need to add them separately. Leave $1–2 per day for hotel housekeeping. 4️⃣ Transportation: use the subway for short trips. For longer distances, use ride-hailing apps—they cost half as much as hailing taxis on the street. Avoid driving if unfamiliar with the area; parking is very expensive. 5️⃣ Accommodation tips: if on a budget, stay in New Jersey or Long Island suburbs with subway access to Manhattan. You can save half on housing costs but expect longer commutes. Avoid remote neighborhoods. 💰 5-day per person budget reference (excluding international flights) · Comfortable trip: 6,500–10,000 yuan (city hotels + classic attractions + several full meals) · Budget trip: 4,000–5,500 yuan (suburban lodging, public transport, affordable meals) ✨ Final honest words New York is a city of extremes, where top-tier luxury and gritty street life coexist. It’s worth visiting once to see a world-class city firsthand. But if you prefer clean, tidy, stress-free vacations and dislike high tipping and crowded environments, New York probably won’t match your travel style. Adjust your expectations before you go.

#mytripvlog Historic Holy Trinity Episcopal Church was formed in the living room of the founder of the City of Covina, J.S. Phillips, on Trinity Sunday in 1887. It turned 135 years old this year, designed by artchtector Fr. Alfred Fletcher. Steeped in liturgical traditions, it also embraces progressive values. The blue and red cart in the front of the church is a full-size replica of the one that hauled big stones from the riverbed to build the church in 1910. Address: 100 N 3rd Ave, Covina, CA 91723

Canada 🍁 is great, but I won't go again because it's too grueling ✨ I just returned from an in-depth trip to Canada! Honestly, I'm speaking from the heart 😭 The mountains and rivers here are truly breathtaking; the Rockies, lakes, and Maple Road are all picture-perfect! But the travel experience was truly exhausting, time-consuming, expensive, and incredibly troublesome. It's beautiful but not fun, once is enough! ✈️ Transportation tips 💨 The biggest challenge for traveling in Canada: vast land and sparse population, making travel extremely difficult! International direct flights take a very long time, long-haul flights are super tiring, and jet lag is unbearable 😩 Inter-city distances are extremely far! Vancouver, Toronto, and Banff are thousands of kilometers apart. Inter-city flight tickets are expensive, and travel time is spent enduring the journey. Zero public transportation freedom for city travel ❌ Bus services are extremely infrequent, with waits starting at over ten minutes. Remote scenic spots are mostly inaccessible by direct public transport. ✅ The only solution: you must drive! However, mountain roads have many curves, mountainous areas often have no signal, gas stations are sparse, and roads are dark and deserted after nightfall, which is a direct deterrent for new drivers! Without a car, you can't move an inch; driving keeps you tense the whole time, directly halving your travel happiness! 🏞️ Real experience of attractions 🌿 Objectively speaking! Canada's natural scenery is truly irreplaceable 🍃 The lakes in Banff National Park are crystal clear and blue, with snow-capped mountains reflecting on the surface, creating an ethereal scene; Maple Road is full of autumn vibes; Niagara Falls is magnificent and stunning, curing all visual fatigue. Few crowds, pristine scenery, perfect ecological environment. Every photo is a blockbuster without filters, and the air quality is excellent. But there are too many downsides to count! Prices are ridiculously high 💸. Food, accommodation, and parking are all overpriced, and niche attractions have many hidden fees. Mosquitoes are rampant in forest areas during summer, biting through clothes, making outdoor hiking a terrible experience; the weather is unpredictable, with sudden showers and strong winds at any time. Distances between attractions are too far, with most of the day spent traveling, losing the relaxed feeling of a trip due to a "special forces" style rush. Very low commercialization also means poor facilities, few supplies, and few rest areas, making the entire trip feel like making do. 🍁 Authentic Canadian cuisine 🤤 The online rumors about a food desert are true! The overall taste is rather bland, heavy on oil and salt, suitable for a taste but not for eating much 😮‍💨 🦞 Canadian lobster: firm, sweet, and fresh meat, a must-eat main dish, with decent value for money. 🍖 Maple bacon: a local specialty, a unique sweet and savory taste, worth trying. 🥩 AAA-grade steak: firm and tender meat, rich aroma from charcoal grilling. 🥣 Poutine: fries with cheese curds and gravy, calorie-dense, easily gets greasy if you eat too much. 💡 Real experience: very few local food options! After exploring streets and alleys, I ended up relying on Chinese and Korean food to survive. It's really hard to eat like this for a long trip! 💡 Heartfelt travel tips 📝 1. You must drive the entire trip! Practice mountain roads in advance, download full offline maps, as no signal in mountainous areas is common. 2. Fill up the gas tank immediately when it's half full! Gas stations are extremely far apart on rural roads, don't gamble on remaining fuel. 3. For summer travel, prepare strong mosquito repellent, long-sleeved shirts and pants. Mosquitoes in forest areas are highly toxic and dense. 4. The temperature difference between day and night is huge, always carry a jacket. Bring an umbrella for unpredictable weather. 5. Book accommodation and parking in advance. Housing near scenic spots is tight, and parking fees are expensive. 6. When hiking in the wilderness, don't take unofficial paths. Follow park rules and pay attention to outdoor safety. Undeniably, Canada boasts world-class beautiful mountains and rivers 🍁 Pristine lakes, majestic snow-capped mountains, and endless maple leaves are both healing and stunning. But the extremely high costs, long travel times, inadequate facilities, and monotonous food are truly energy-draining! It's suitable for experienced travelers who seek extreme scenery, have ample budget, and are good at driving. For average tourists, a second visit is not recommended. Seeing the stunning scenery once is already fulfilling and leaves no regrets!

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

. Hello, this is Ziwen, always on the road traveling~ . It turns out you don’t have to go far to Africa to feel like you’re at the end of the world; this island gave me that feeling… . The house is built on the cliff’s curve closest to the sea, like the last comma the continent wrote to the ocean. Open the door to see the sea, and the 180-degree floor-to-ceiling windows bring the glassy sea into every turn inside the room. . In the afternoon, walking through the cliff garden and sitting by the edge watching the sea, I suddenly understood what “the ends of the earth” means—not a geographical distance, but a quiet place where your heart can drift away without rushing back. . Before sunset, dive into the heated infinity pool. The water temperature is just like a warm embrace, your body suspended at the boundary between land and sea. Watch the sunset slowly spread over the horizon, the sky turning from fiery orange to deep purple, and the wind carries an indescribable tenderness from afar. . It turns out the Cape of Good Hope isn’t on any map. It’s in the moment when the sea laps at your toes, in the second the cliff catches the setting sun. . [Half-day Island Tour Guide] · Dishui Danping Right below the hotel, the volcanic rock cliff drips water year-round, and at sunset the whole sea turns into flowing molten gold. Recommended to wear a light-colored long dress; the backlit silhouette is poetic. . · Nanwan Catholic Church A century-old building made of coral stone, with stained glass patterns blooming like flowers on the ground in the afternoon. Few people early Monday to Friday mornings. . · Muya Cliff (informal spot, be cautious) A wild cliff known only to locals, at dusk it feels like standing at the world’s end. Wear non-slip shoes and go with companions. . · Shiluokou Beach The clearest part of the glassy sea, where you can see the shadows of underwater coral under the afternoon sun. .

After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

I've been longing for this white horse for a long time! When I was in school, I saw my senior's graduation photo and thought that if I had the chance, I would definitely take a photo sitting on a horse's back. More than a year after graduation! I finally got the chance! I got on! Took the photo! No more regrets about USC! It's really impossible to get on with just one person helping. At least one more person is needed! One side needs the photographer to hold my hand, and the other side needs my husband to support my leg to get up (big thanks to these two helpers). Beautiful photos like this are made this way! “As long as I’m not embarrassed, the embarrassed ones are others.”

Alien Canyon | Sci-Fi Filming Location The most famous spot in the entire park, with fluorescent orange, mint green, and creamy white multi-layered rocks interwoven, creating a surreal color clash like an alien surface. ⚠️ Safety Reminder: The rock walls are loose and prone to collapse; strictly follow marked routes and do not venture deep into the canyon. 🌌 Night Tour Exclusive: Desert Milky Way Starry Night Far from city light pollution, the entire wilderness reveals the full Milky Way to the naked eye at night. The rock pillars framed against the starry sky create a powerful visual impact. Photography Gear: Tripod, large aperture camera, headlamp; use long exposure of 10–15 seconds, ISO 1600–3200 to easily capture stunning star trails. Tips: The desert has extreme temperature differences between day and night; bring a windproof thick jacket for nighttime. 🎒 Essential Packing List · Clothing: High-top anti-slip hiking boots, windproof face mask, wide-brim sun hat · Water: Large capacity water bags with at least 3 liters per person; the desert has no shade and intense sun exposure, with a high risk of dehydration · Equipment: Satellite GPS/offline maps, camera + tripod, sunscreen with SPF 50+ · Others: Basic first aid kit, some dry snacks, trash bags (all trash must be carried out) ⚠️ Strict Safety Rules & Pitfall Warnings 1. Avoid during rainy season: Heavy rains frequently occur from July to September, causing flash floods in desert canyons; visiting during this period is not recommended 2. Drone Restrictions: Drones are prohibited throughout the protected area; violations will be penalized 3. Wildlife Encounters: If you encounter rattlesnakes or venomous lizards, stay still and slowly back away without disturbing them 4. Geomorphology Protection: Do not climb fragile rock pillars, carve graffiti, or move rocks; these billion-year weathered landforms are easily damaged 5. Camping Tips: Only primitive camping is allowed; check forest fire bans in advance; open flames are strictly prohibited Simple Itinerary Reference (One-Day Deep Exploration) 09:00 Arrive at the park, visit Badlands Overlook to photograph the morning Danxia 11:00 Hike Fossil Valley to observe ancient fossils up close 14:00 Rest and hydrate, then head to Alien Canyon to check out the sci-fi rock walls 18:00 Wait for the golden hour sunset to capture stunning rock layer sunset shots 21:00 Stay on site until dark to photograph the desert Milky Way star trails

#fallcolors My visit to Brookline in autumn felt like stepping into a beautiful painting. The streets were lined with trees glowing in shades of golden yellow, fiery orange, and deep red, while the crisp fall air added an unmistakable New England charm. 🍁✨ I loved walking through the peaceful neighborhoods, surrounded by colorful leaves, beautiful homes, and quiet tree-lined streets. Every turn seemed to bring another picture-perfect autumn scene, from leaves scattered across the sidewalks to sunlight filtering through the changing canopy. There was something wonderfully cozy about experiencing Brookline during fall—the slower pace, the cool breeze, and the vibrant colors transforming the familiar landscape. A simple autumn walk, but one filled with beautiful memories. 🍂❤️ #brooklyn #england #fallcolors #Brookline #Massachusetts #BrooklineMA #NewEngland #AutumnInNewEngland #FallFoliage #AutumnColors #MassachusettsFall #NewEnglandFall #USATravel #AutumnVibes #TravelMemories #NatureLovers #Wanderlust #fallcolors #autumnfoliage

If you ask me what the perfect Florida road trip looks like… imagine turquoise water, pastel Art Deco buildings, Cuban coffee, a convertible cruising along an endless ocean bridge, and sunsets that make you forget to check your phone. 🌅🚗 Welcome to Miami + Key West — where city vibes meet tropical island life! 📍 DAY 1 — Hello, Miami! 🏖️ First stop: Lincoln Road for a little shopping, cute cafés, and people-watching. Then head to South Beach, kick off your shoes, and let the Atlantic Ocean say hello. 🌊 The pastel Art Deco buildings, swaying palm trees, colorful lifeguard towers, and golden-hour beach views? Honestly, your camera roll is about to be FULL. 📸 🍹 Must-try: Cuban sandwiches, fresh seafood, and a refreshing mojito. 📍 DAY 2 — Art, Culture & City Adventures 🎨 Miami has so much more than beaches! 🎨 Wynwood Walls — giant murals, bold colors, and street art everywhere. Every corner feels like a different photo shoot. 🇨🇺 Little Havana — Cuban coffee, cigar shops, Latin music, and lively streets. Grab a cafecito and soak up the atmosphere. 🏛️ Freedom Tower — a landmark with a fascinating history. 🏀 Kaseya Center — home of the Miami HEAT. Even if there’s no game, the arena exterior is worth a quick photo stop. 🛥️ Biscayne Bay Cruise — see Miami’s skyline from the water and enjoy those gorgeous waterfront views. 🐊 Everglades Airboat Tour — swap skyscrapers for wild wetlands and keep your eyes open for alligators! Fair warning: Miami’s personality changes every few kilometres. One minute you’re surrounded by murals, the next you’re cruising past luxury yachts or exploring a Cuban neighbourhood. 😂 📍 DAY 3 — The Ultimate Florida Keys Road Trip 🚗💙 This is the day I’d be most excited about! Hit U.S. Route 1 and drive south towards Key West. The journey itself is part of the adventure — ocean views, little islands, roadside stops, and endless shades of blue. 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — one of the most iconic stretches of road in the Florida Keys. Driving across the ocean feels almost unreal. 📍 Key West Southernmost Point — stop at the famous colourful buoy marking the southernmost point of the continental USA. Yes, it’s touristy. Yes, you’re taking the photo anyway. 😂📸 🚶 Duval Street — explore colourful shops, cafés, historic streets, and the island’s laid-back atmosphere. 🍰 Key lime pie — tangy, creamy, and absolutely worth the calories. 🦞 Fresh seafood — because a Florida Keys trip without seafood would be a crime against your taste buds. 🌅 Finish the day by the ocean and watch the sunset. No rushing, no complicated plans — just warm air, sea breezes, and that island feeling. 📍 DAY 4 — Beaches, Wildlife & Palm Beach 🌴 Start with Fort Lauderdale Beach, where the coastline feels a little more relaxed. Take a stroll along the beach, enjoy the sea breeze, and grab some breakfast before heading north. 🦁 Lion Country Safari — a drive-through wildlife adventure where you can see lions, giraffes, zebras, and other animals. Keep your camera ready, but always follow the park’s wildlife safety rules! 🌺 Palm Beach Island — explore the elegant streets around Worth Avenue, admire the Mediterranean-style architecture, and enjoy the boutiques and beautiful coastal scenery. ✈️ Then it’s time to head to the airport and say goodbye to Florida. Four days might not be enough to see absolutely everything, but it’s enough to experience a little bit of everything: beaches, art, wildlife, city life, island roads, and unforgettable sunsets. 📸 IG PHOTO SPOTS YOU NEED TO SAVE ✨ South Beach — pastel Art Deco buildings and palm-lined streets 🎨 Wynwood Walls — colourful murals and street-style shots 🇨🇺 Little Havana — vintage cars, Cuban cafés, and street scenes 🏀 Kaseya Center — Miami HEAT arena exterior 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — turquoise water stretching into the distance 📍 Southernmost Point — the classic Key West photo 🦁 Lion Country Safari — incredible wildlife encounters 🌅 Key West sunset — the perfect golden-hour finale 💡 A few road-trip tips before you go: 🚗 Renting a car makes the Miami–Key West journey much easier. ☀️ Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and comfortable walking shoes. 🎟️ Check opening hours and book popular tours in advance. 🏀 Check the Miami HEAT schedule if you want to catch a game. 🦁 Check safari admission and animal-viewing rules before visiting. ⏰ Day 4 is ambitious: Lion Country Safari is inland, while Palm Beach is farther north. Allow plenty of driving time, and don’t miss your flight trying to squeeze in one more stop! One more thing: if you’re visiting during peak season, give yourself extra time for traffic, parking, and those “wait, let’s take one more photo” moments. 🤭 Miami gives you the energy. Key West gives you the escape. The road between them gives you the memories. 💙 And honestly? That sounds like a pretty good way to spend four days in America. 🇺🇸🌴 #miami #keywest #floridaroadtrip #miamitravel #keywestflorida #southbeachmiami #wynwoodwalls #littlehavana #sevenmilebridge #southernmostpoint #floridakeys #evergladesnationalparkrk #lioncountrysafari #palmbeachflorida #travelusa #usaroadtrip

Background: The following is about my travel experience during the off-season in November, please don’t argue!!! This special forces one-day trip originated because my family went to Cinque Terre in September, but due to lack of experience, they only visited 1.5 villages and left in a hurry, which was very regrettable. So they kept recommending to me, "You have to go! It’s so beautiful! You should stay a few more days!" Such feelings! That’s when I remembered, isn’t this the Lonely Planet cover!! So I took an early train there. On the way, I felt something was off because the sky was full of dark clouds, destined to be a cloudy day!!! Sure enough, about 80% of this place’s beauty comes from full sunshine and bright sun☀️☀️☀️☀️. Without it, it’s quite dull... But the good thing is, the trains are very punctual with no delays, and the pass price dropped from 27 euros to 14.8 euros (if you don’t visit more than 3 villages, please buy a one-way ticket, which also dropped to about 2 euros). Cinque Terre is commonly abbreviated by village numbers according to geography: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I finally decided on the route 5-4-1-2. Village 5 Monterosso al Mare is the only village with a relatively large beach, suitable for swimming and sunbathing. In autumn and winter, no one swims, but I saw a surprise like a Turner painting ੧ᐛ੭ I really liked it! Village 4 Vernazza has a natural harbor and castle, but without the blessing of a big sunny day, the wall colors are actually not vivid at all, quite ordinary. Village 3 Corniglia is the only one not directly by the sea, located on a hilltop, requiring climbing stairs, relatively quiet. My goal was to see the sea, so I gave it up directly. Village 2 Manarola is the classic postcard angle, with magnificent coastline views, very suitable for photography. I also saw people carrying long lenses preparing to shoot the sunset🌇. Like me, we waited until sunset, but everything was different from what we imagined because the clouds covered the sun, and we didn’t capture anything. Not giving up, I and another couple changed positions to try to shoot the buildings sparkling with lights at night, but it was also fruitless. Village 1 Riomaggiore You can see how lively it is in the peak season, but now in the off-season many shops are closed or under renovation. I feel tourists like me wandering around are very few. On the bright side, it’s quite suitable for selfies🤳 because there’s no one on the road, no need to worry about disturbing others. All the above pictures have been skillfully edited and color-corrected by me to be somewhat viewable. In reality, the naked eye sees them as much darker, so I share them as a reference. If you go in autumn or winter, you really need luck✌︎' ֊' Maybe it’s not worth waking up early for once🌞 (the last roar of a late riser!)

#mytripvlog Beautiful fall color around Dillon Dam

New York is great, but I won’t go a second time 💔|A regular traveler’s honest guide to what to avoid I have to admit, New York’s vibe is truly unique. The Manhattan skyline, the Statue of Liberty at dusk, Central Park’s autumn sunsets, the timeless masterpieces at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, street art, Broadway lights—seeing the hustle and romance of this world-class city in person is truly breathtaking. But after experiencing a solo trip firsthand, the exhaustion, hidden costs, and safety concerns add up. No matter how stunning the sights, it’s hard to want to go back. Keep this honest guide to what to avoid handy! ✨ —— 📢 Honest advice to reconsider, set your expectations early 1. Prices are generally high, and tipping is everywhere Restaurants expect 15%–20% tips by default. You also need to tip for coffee, takeout, and hotel housekeeping. Simple meals on the street start at 120 yuan per person, and full meals are over 300 yuan per person. Accommodation is expensive—basic hotels in Manhattan start at 1,000 yuan per night with small rooms. 2. The city is crowded and chaotic, which is physically draining Manhattan is extremely dense and crowded. Most attractions require walking and subway transfers, often walking tens of thousands of steps daily. Trash and homeless people are common on the streets, very different from the polished scenes in movies and TV shows. 3. The subway is old and unsafe The century-old subway system is outdated, with no air conditioning and strong odors. Late-night cars have a mixed crowd, so keep valuables close. Avoid traveling alone during early morning hours. 4. Many hidden fees and traps Observation decks, boat tours, and museums charge separately. Popular combo tickets are expensive. Street performers charge for photos, public restrooms and luggage storage usually require payment. 5. Huge differences between neighborhoods Uptown Manhattan is prosperous and clean. Brooklyn and some remote areas are chaotic. Avoid walking alone late at night. · — 📝 Essential travel info ✅ Visa: US B1/B2 tourist visa, apply in advance. Have round-trip tickets and hotel bookings ready for inspection ✅ Currency: US dollars. Most malls and restaurants accept credit cards. Carry some cash for emergencies ✅ Best travel time: April–June, September–November for comfortable temperatures. Summers are hot and rainy, winters are very cold ✅ Must-haves: portable anti-theft bag, comfortable walking shoes, power adapter, mask (subway ventilation is poor) · — 🗓 Classic 5-day relaxed itinerary (no boot camp) Day 1 Downtown Manhattan landmarks Statue of Liberty boat tour (buy tickets online in advance) → Wall Street bull → Walk Brooklyn Bridge, capture Manhattan skyline sunset in the evening Day 2 Midtown core shopping district Choose either Empire State Building or Top of the Rock observation deck → Times Square → Broadway show (buy tickets online in advance for better prices) Day 3 Artsy slow day Spend the day wandering Central Park → Metropolitan Museum of Art, allow half a day or more to explore slowly, watch the park sunset in the evening Day 4 Off-the-beaten-path route High Line Park → Chelsea art district → Flatiron Building, experience the city’s popular elevated walkway Day 5 Shopping and rest Shop along Fifth Avenue or visit a lesser-known Jersey City viewpoint to avoid city crowds, then rest before heading home · — 🍽 Food guide, save money and avoid pitfalls 🔶 Affordable must-tries: Shake Shack burgers, New York pizza, bagel breakfast. Local chains offer the best value 🔶 Special experiences: Michelin-starred Manhattan restaurants and trendy steakhouses are overpriced. Regular tourists don’t need to rush to these 💡 Money-saving tips 1. Buy water and snacks at supermarkets; convenience stores near attractions charge double 2. Choose pickup when ordering food to avoid delivery tips 3. Chinatown offers great value Chinese food with flavors familiar to Chinese travelers, much cheaper than Western food ⚠️ Important pitfalls to avoid (learned the hard way) 1️⃣ Safety first: carry your backpack in front, watch your phone and wallet in the subway and crowded areas. Don’t engage with overly friendly strangers on the street or accept gifts—they will demand tips later. 2️⃣ Buy tickets online in advance: lines are long and prices are higher on site. Book Statue of Liberty tours, observation decks, and museums on official websites ahead of time. 3️⃣ Remember tipping rules: restaurant bills don’t include tips; you need to add them separately. Leave $1–2 per day for hotel housekeeping. 4️⃣ Transportation: use the subway for short trips. For longer distances, use ride-hailing apps—they cost half as much as hailing taxis on the street. Avoid driving if unfamiliar with the area; parking is very expensive. 5️⃣ Accommodation tips: if on a budget, stay in New Jersey or Long Island suburbs with subway access to Manhattan. You can save half on housing costs but expect longer commutes. Avoid remote neighborhoods. 💰 5-day per person budget reference (excluding international flights) · Comfortable trip: 6,500–10,000 yuan (city hotels + classic attractions + several full meals) · Budget trip: 4,000–5,500 yuan (suburban lodging, public transport, affordable meals) ✨ Final honest words New York is a city of extremes, where top-tier luxury and gritty street life coexist. It’s worth visiting once to see a world-class city firsthand. But if you prefer clean, tidy, stress-free vacations and dislike high tipping and crowded environments, New York probably won’t match your travel style. Adjust your expectations before you go.

#mytripvlog Historic Holy Trinity Episcopal Church was formed in the living room of the founder of the City of Covina, J.S. Phillips, on Trinity Sunday in 1887. It turned 135 years old this year, designed by artchtector Fr. Alfred Fletcher. Steeped in liturgical traditions, it also embraces progressive values. The blue and red cart in the front of the church is a full-size replica of the one that hauled big stones from the riverbed to build the church in 1910. Address: 100 N 3rd Ave, Covina, CA 91723

Canada 🍁 is great, but I won't go again because it's too grueling ✨ I just returned from an in-depth trip to Canada! Honestly, I'm speaking from the heart 😭 The mountains and rivers here are truly breathtaking; the Rockies, lakes, and Maple Road are all picture-perfect! But the travel experience was truly exhausting, time-consuming, expensive, and incredibly troublesome. It's beautiful but not fun, once is enough! ✈️ Transportation tips 💨 The biggest challenge for traveling in Canada: vast land and sparse population, making travel extremely difficult! International direct flights take a very long time, long-haul flights are super tiring, and jet lag is unbearable 😩 Inter-city distances are extremely far! Vancouver, Toronto, and Banff are thousands of kilometers apart. Inter-city flight tickets are expensive, and travel time is spent enduring the journey. Zero public transportation freedom for city travel ❌ Bus services are extremely infrequent, with waits starting at over ten minutes. Remote scenic spots are mostly inaccessible by direct public transport. ✅ The only solution: you must drive! However, mountain roads have many curves, mountainous areas often have no signal, gas stations are sparse, and roads are dark and deserted after nightfall, which is a direct deterrent for new drivers! Without a car, you can't move an inch; driving keeps you tense the whole time, directly halving your travel happiness! 🏞️ Real experience of attractions 🌿 Objectively speaking! Canada's natural scenery is truly irreplaceable 🍃 The lakes in Banff National Park are crystal clear and blue, with snow-capped mountains reflecting on the surface, creating an ethereal scene; Maple Road is full of autumn vibes; Niagara Falls is magnificent and stunning, curing all visual fatigue. Few crowds, pristine scenery, perfect ecological environment. Every photo is a blockbuster without filters, and the air quality is excellent. But there are too many downsides to count! Prices are ridiculously high 💸. Food, accommodation, and parking are all overpriced, and niche attractions have many hidden fees. Mosquitoes are rampant in forest areas during summer, biting through clothes, making outdoor hiking a terrible experience; the weather is unpredictable, with sudden showers and strong winds at any time. Distances between attractions are too far, with most of the day spent traveling, losing the relaxed feeling of a trip due to a "special forces" style rush. Very low commercialization also means poor facilities, few supplies, and few rest areas, making the entire trip feel like making do. 🍁 Authentic Canadian cuisine 🤤 The online rumors about a food desert are true! The overall taste is rather bland, heavy on oil and salt, suitable for a taste but not for eating much 😮‍💨 🦞 Canadian lobster: firm, sweet, and fresh meat, a must-eat main dish, with decent value for money. 🍖 Maple bacon: a local specialty, a unique sweet and savory taste, worth trying. 🥩 AAA-grade steak: firm and tender meat, rich aroma from charcoal grilling. 🥣 Poutine: fries with cheese curds and gravy, calorie-dense, easily gets greasy if you eat too much. 💡 Real experience: very few local food options! After exploring streets and alleys, I ended up relying on Chinese and Korean food to survive. It's really hard to eat like this for a long trip! 💡 Heartfelt travel tips 📝 1. You must drive the entire trip! Practice mountain roads in advance, download full offline maps, as no signal in mountainous areas is common. 2. Fill up the gas tank immediately when it's half full! Gas stations are extremely far apart on rural roads, don't gamble on remaining fuel. 3. For summer travel, prepare strong mosquito repellent, long-sleeved shirts and pants. Mosquitoes in forest areas are highly toxic and dense. 4. The temperature difference between day and night is huge, always carry a jacket. Bring an umbrella for unpredictable weather. 5. Book accommodation and parking in advance. Housing near scenic spots is tight, and parking fees are expensive. 6. When hiking in the wilderness, don't take unofficial paths. Follow park rules and pay attention to outdoor safety. Undeniably, Canada boasts world-class beautiful mountains and rivers 🍁 Pristine lakes, majestic snow-capped mountains, and endless maple leaves are both healing and stunning. But the extremely high costs, long travel times, inadequate facilities, and monotonous food are truly energy-draining! It's suitable for experienced travelers who seek extreme scenery, have ample budget, and are good at driving. For average tourists, a second visit is not recommended. Seeing the stunning scenery once is already fulfilling and leaves no regrets!

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

. Hello, this is Ziwen, always on the road traveling~ . It turns out you don’t have to go far to Africa to feel like you’re at the end of the world; this island gave me that feeling… . The house is built on the cliff’s curve closest to the sea, like the last comma the continent wrote to the ocean. Open the door to see the sea, and the 180-degree floor-to-ceiling windows bring the glassy sea into every turn inside the room. . In the afternoon, walking through the cliff garden and sitting by the edge watching the sea, I suddenly understood what “the ends of the earth” means—not a geographical distance, but a quiet place where your heart can drift away without rushing back. . Before sunset, dive into the heated infinity pool. The water temperature is just like a warm embrace, your body suspended at the boundary between land and sea. Watch the sunset slowly spread over the horizon, the sky turning from fiery orange to deep purple, and the wind carries an indescribable tenderness from afar. . It turns out the Cape of Good Hope isn’t on any map. It’s in the moment when the sea laps at your toes, in the second the cliff catches the setting sun. . [Half-day Island Tour Guide] · Dishui Danping Right below the hotel, the volcanic rock cliff drips water year-round, and at sunset the whole sea turns into flowing molten gold. Recommended to wear a light-colored long dress; the backlit silhouette is poetic. . · Nanwan Catholic Church A century-old building made of coral stone, with stained glass patterns blooming like flowers on the ground in the afternoon. Few people early Monday to Friday mornings. . · Muya Cliff (informal spot, be cautious) A wild cliff known only to locals, at dusk it feels like standing at the world’s end. Wear non-slip shoes and go with companions. . · Shiluokou Beach The clearest part of the glassy sea, where you can see the shadows of underwater coral under the afternoon sun. .

After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

I've been longing for this white horse for a long time! When I was in school, I saw my senior's graduation photo and thought that if I had the chance, I would definitely take a photo sitting on a horse's back. More than a year after graduation! I finally got the chance! I got on! Took the photo! No more regrets about USC! It's really impossible to get on with just one person helping. At least one more person is needed! One side needs the photographer to hold my hand, and the other side needs my husband to support my leg to get up (big thanks to these two helpers). Beautiful photos like this are made this way! “As long as I’m not embarrassed, the embarrassed ones are others.”

#fallcolors My visit to Brookline in autumn felt like stepping into a beautiful painting. The streets were lined with trees glowing in shades of golden yellow, fiery orange, and deep red, while the crisp fall air added an unmistakable New England charm. 🍁✨ I loved walking through the peaceful neighborhoods, surrounded by colorful leaves, beautiful homes, and quiet tree-lined streets. Every turn seemed to bring another picture-perfect autumn scene, from leaves scattered across the sidewalks to sunlight filtering through the changing canopy. There was something wonderfully cozy about experiencing Brookline during fall—the slower pace, the cool breeze, and the vibrant colors transforming the familiar landscape. A simple autumn walk, but one filled with beautiful memories. 🍂❤️ #brooklyn #england #fallcolors #Brookline #Massachusetts #BrooklineMA #NewEngland #AutumnInNewEngland #FallFoliage #AutumnColors #MassachusettsFall #NewEnglandFall #USATravel #AutumnVibes #TravelMemories #NatureLovers #Wanderlust #fallcolors #autumnfoliage

One minute you’re surrounded by murals, the next you’re cruising past luxury yachts or exploring a Cuban neighbourhood. 😂 📍 DAY 3 — The Ultimate Florida Keys Road Trip 🚗💙 This is the day I’d be most excited about! Hit U.S. Route 1 and drive south towards Key West. The journey itself is part of the adventure — ocean views, little islands, roadside stops, and endless shades of blue. 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — one of the most iconic stretches of road in the Florida Keys. Driving across the ocean feels almost unreal. 📍 Key West Southernmost Point — stop at the famous colourful buoy marking the southernmost point of the continental USA. Yes, it’s touristy. Yes, you’re taking the photo anyway. 😂📸 🚶 Duval Street — explore colourful shops, cafés, historic streets, and the island’s laid-back atmosphere. 🍰 Key lime pie — tangy, creamy, and absolutely worth the calories. 🦞 Fresh seafood — because a Florida Keys trip without seafood would be a crime against your taste buds. 🌅 Finish the day by the ocean and watch the sunset. No rushing, no complicated plans — just warm air, sea breezes, and that island feeling. 📍 DAY 4 — Beaches, Wildlife & Palm Beach 🌴 Start with Fort Lauderdale Beach, where the coastline feels a little more relaxed. Take a stroll along the beach, enjoy the sea breeze, and grab some breakfast before heading north. 🦁 Lion Country Safari — a drive-through wildlife adventure where you can see lions, giraffes, zebras, and other animals. Keep your camera ready, but always follow the park’s wildlife safety rules! 🌺 Palm Beach Island — explore the elegant streets around Worth Avenue, admire the Mediterranean-style architecture, and enjoy the boutiques and beautiful coastal scenery. ✈️ Then it’s time to head to the airport and say goodbye to Florida. Four days might not be enough to see absolutely everything, but it’s enough to experience a little bit of everything: beaches, art, wildlife, city life, island roads, and unforgettable sunsets. 📸 IG PHOTO SPOTS YOU NEED TO SAVE ✨ South Beach — pastel Art Deco buildings and palm-lined streets 🎨 Wynwood Walls — colourful murals and street-style shots 🇨🇺 Little Havana — vintage cars, Cuban cafés, and street scenes 🏀 Kaseya Center — Miami HEAT arena exterior 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — turquoise water stretching into the distance 📍 Southernmost Point — the classic Key West photo 🦁 Lion Country Safari — incredible wildlife encounters 🌅 Key West sunset — the perfect golden-hour finale 💡 A few road-trip tips before you go: 🚗 Renting a car makes the Miami–Key West journey much easier. ☀️ Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and comfortable walking shoes. 🎟️ Check opening hours and book popular tours in advance. 🏀 Check the Miami HEAT schedule if you want to catch a game. 🦁 Check safari admission and animal-viewing rules before visiting. ⏰ Day 4 is ambitious: Lion Country Safari is inland, while Palm Beach is farther north. Allow plenty of driving time, and don’t miss your flight trying to squeeze in one more stop! One more thing: if you’re visiting during peak season, give yourself extra time for traffic, parking, and those “wait, let’s take one more photo” moments. 🤭 Miami gives you the energy. Key West gives you the escape. The road between them gives you the memories. 💙 And honestly? That sounds like a pretty good way to spend four days in America. 🇺🇸🌴 #miami #keywest #floridaroadtrip #miamitravel #keywestflorida #southbeachmiami #wynwoodwalls #littlehavana #sevenmilebridge #southernmostpoint #floridakeys #evergladesnationalparkrk #lioncountrysafari #palmbeachflorida #travelusa #usaroadtrip

Background: The following is about my travel experience during the off-season in November, please don’t argue!!! This special forces one-day trip originated because my family went to Cinque Terre in September, but due to lack of experience, they only visited 1.5 villages and left in a hurry, which was very regrettable. So they kept recommending to me, "You have to go! It’s so beautiful! You should stay a few more days!" Such feelings! That’s when I remembered, isn’t this the Lonely Planet cover!! So I took an early train there. On the way, I felt something was off because the sky was full of dark clouds, destined to be a cloudy day!!! Sure enough, about 80% of this place’s beauty comes from full sunshine and bright sun☀️☀️☀️☀️. Without it, it’s quite dull... But the good thing is, the trains are very punctual with no delays, and the pass price dropped from 27 euros to 14.8 euros (if you don’t visit more than 3 villages, please buy a one-way ticket, which also dropped to about 2 euros). Cinque Terre is commonly abbreviated by village numbers according to geography: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I finally decided on the route 5-4-1-2. Village 5 Monterosso al Mare is the only village with a relatively large beach, suitable for swimming and sunbathing. In autumn and winter, no one swims, but I saw a surprise like a Turner painting ੧ᐛ੭ I really liked it! Village 4 Vernazza has a natural harbor and castle, but without the blessing of a big sunny day, the wall colors are actually not vivid at all, quite ordinary. Village 3 Corniglia is the only one not directly by the sea, located on a hilltop, requiring climbing stairs, relatively quiet. My goal was to see the sea, so I gave it up directly. Village 2 Manarola is the classic postcard angle, with magnificent coastline views, very suitable for photography. I also saw people carrying long lenses preparing to shoot the sunset🌇. Like me, we waited until sunset, but everything was different from what we imagined because the clouds covered the sun, and we didn’t capture anything. Not giving up, I and another couple changed positions to try to shoot the buildings sparkling with lights at night, but it was also fruitless. Village 1 Riomaggiore You can see how lively it is in the peak season, but now in the off-season many shops are closed or under renovation. I feel tourists like me wandering around are very few. On the bright side, it’s quite suitable for selfies🤳 because there’s no one on the road, no need to worry about disturbing others. All the above pictures have been skillfully edited and color-corrected by me to be somewhat viewable. In reality, the naked eye sees them as much darker, so I share them as a reference. If you go in autumn or winter, you really need luck✌︎' ֊' Maybe it’s not worth waking up early for once🌞 (the last roar of a late riser!)

#mytripvlog Beautiful fall color around Dillon Dam

New York is great, but I won’t go a second time 💔|A regular traveler’s honest guide to what to avoid I have to admit, New York’s vibe is truly unique. The Manhattan skyline, the Statue of Liberty at dusk, Central Park’s autumn sunsets, the timeless masterpieces at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, street art, Broadway lights—seeing the hustle and romance of this world-class city in person is truly breathtaking. But after experiencing a solo trip firsthand, the exhaustion, hidden costs, and safety concerns add up. No matter how stunning the sights, it’s hard to want to go back. Keep this honest guide to what to avoid handy! ✨ —— 📢 Honest advice to reconsider, set your expectations early 1. Prices are generally high, and tipping is everywhere Restaurants expect 15%–20% tips by default. You also need to tip for coffee, takeout, and hotel housekeeping. Simple meals on the street start at 120 yuan per person, and full meals are over 300 yuan per person. Accommodation is expensive—basic hotels in Manhattan start at 1,000 yuan per night with small rooms. 2. The city is crowded and chaotic, which is physically draining Manhattan is extremely dense and crowded. Most attractions require walking and subway transfers, often walking tens of thousands of steps daily. Trash and homeless people are common on the streets, very different from the polished scenes in movies and TV shows. 3. The subway is old and unsafe The century-old subway system is outdated, with no air conditioning and strong odors. Late-night cars have a mixed crowd, so keep valuables close. Avoid traveling alone during early morning hours. 4. Many hidden fees and traps Observation decks, boat tours, and museums charge separately. Popular combo tickets are expensive. Street performers charge for photos, public restrooms and luggage storage usually require payment. 5. Huge differences between neighborhoods Uptown Manhattan is prosperous and clean. Brooklyn and some remote areas are chaotic. Avoid walking alone late at night. · — 📝 Essential travel info ✅ Visa: US B1/B2 tourist visa, apply in advance. Have round-trip tickets and hotel bookings ready for inspection ✅ Currency: US dollars. Most malls and restaurants accept credit cards. Carry some cash for emergencies ✅ Best travel time: April–June, September–November for comfortable temperatures. Summers are hot and rainy, winters are very cold ✅ Must-haves: portable anti-theft bag, comfortable walking shoes, power adapter, mask (subway ventilation is poor) · — 🗓 Classic 5-day relaxed itinerary (no boot camp) Day 1 Downtown Manhattan landmarks Statue of Liberty boat tour (buy tickets online in advance) → Wall Street bull → Walk Brooklyn Bridge, capture Manhattan skyline sunset in the evening Day 2 Midtown core shopping district Choose either Empire State Building or Top of the Rock observation deck → Times Square → Broadway show (buy tickets online in advance for better prices) Day 3 Artsy slow day Spend the day wandering Central Park → Metropolitan Museum of Art, allow half a day or more to explore slowly, watch the park sunset in the evening Day 4 Off-the-beaten-path route High Line Park → Chelsea art district → Flatiron Building, experience the city’s popular elevated walkway Day 5 Shopping and rest Shop along Fifth Avenue or visit a lesser-known Jersey City viewpoint to avoid city crowds, then rest before heading home · — 🍽 Food guide, save money and avoid pitfalls 🔶 Affordable must-tries: Shake Shack burgers, New York pizza, bagel breakfast. Local chains offer the best value 🔶 Special experiences: Michelin-starred Manhattan restaurants and trendy steakhouses are overpriced. Regular tourists don’t need to rush to these 💡 Money-saving tips 1. Buy water and snacks at supermarkets; convenience stores near attractions charge double 2. Choose pickup when ordering food to avoid delivery tips 3. Chinatown offers great value Chinese food with flavors familiar to Chinese travelers, much cheaper than Western food ⚠️ Important pitfalls to avoid (learned the hard way) 1️⃣ Safety first: carry your backpack in front, watch your phone and wallet in the subway and crowded areas. Don’t engage with overly friendly strangers on the street or accept gifts—they will demand tips later. 2️⃣ Buy tickets online in advance: lines are long and prices are higher on site. Book Statue of Liberty tours, observation decks, and museums on official websites ahead of time. 3️⃣ Remember tipping rules: restaurant bills don’t include tips; you need to add them separately. Leave $1–2 per day for hotel housekeeping. 4️⃣ Transportation: use the subway for short trips. For longer distances, use ride-hailing apps—they cost half as much as hailing taxis on the street. Avoid driving if unfamiliar with the area; parking is very expensive. 5️⃣ Accommodation tips: if on a budget, stay in New Jersey or Long Island suburbs with subway access to Manhattan. You can save half on housing costs but expect longer commutes. Avoid remote neighborhoods. 💰 5-day per person budget reference (excluding international flights) · Comfortable trip: 6,500–10,000 yuan (city hotels + classic attractions + several full meals) · Budget trip: 4,000–5,500 yuan (suburban lodging, public transport, affordable meals) ✨ Final honest words New York is a city of extremes, where top-tier luxury and gritty street life coexist. It’s worth visiting once to see a world-class city firsthand. But if you prefer clean, tidy, stress-free vacations and dislike high tipping and crowded environments, New York probably won’t match your travel style. Adjust your expectations before you go.

#mytripvlog Historic Holy Trinity Episcopal Church was formed in the living room of the founder of the City of Covina, J.S. Phillips, on Trinity Sunday in 1887. It turned 135 years old this year, designed by artchtector Fr. Alfred Fletcher. Steeped in liturgical traditions, it also embraces progressive values. The blue and red cart in the front of the church is a full-size replica of the one that hauled big stones from the riverbed to build the church in 1910. Address: 100 N 3rd Ave, Covina, CA 91723

Canada 🍁 is great, but I won't go again because it's too grueling ✨ I just returned from an in-depth trip to Canada! Honestly, I'm speaking from the heart 😭 The mountains and rivers here are truly breathtaking; the Rockies, lakes, and Maple Road are all picture-perfect! But the travel experience was truly exhausting, time-consuming, expensive, and incredibly troublesome. It's beautiful but not fun, once is enough! ✈️ Transportation tips 💨 The biggest challenge for traveling in Canada: vast land and sparse population, making travel extremely difficult! International direct flights take a very long time, long-haul flights are super tiring, and jet lag is unbearable 😩 Inter-city distances are extremely far! Vancouver, Toronto, and Banff are thousands of kilometers apart. Inter-city flight tickets are expensive, and travel time is spent enduring the journey. Zero public transportation freedom for city travel ❌ Bus services are extremely infrequent, with waits starting at over ten minutes. Remote scenic spots are mostly inaccessible by direct public transport. ✅ The only solution: you must drive! However, mountain roads have many curves, mountainous areas often have no signal, gas stations are sparse, and roads are dark and deserted after nightfall, which is a direct deterrent for new drivers! Without a car, you can't move an inch; driving keeps you tense the whole time, directly halving your travel happiness! 🏞️ Real experience of attractions 🌿 Objectively speaking! Canada's natural scenery is truly irreplaceable 🍃 The lakes in Banff National Park are crystal clear and blue, with snow-capped mountains reflecting on the surface, creating an ethereal scene; Maple Road is full of autumn vibes; Niagara Falls is magnificent and stunning, curing all visual fatigue. Few crowds, pristine scenery, perfect ecological environment. Every photo is a blockbuster without filters, and the air quality is excellent. But there are too many downsides to count! Prices are ridiculously high 💸. Food, accommodation, and parking are all overpriced, and niche attractions have many hidden fees. Mosquitoes are rampant in forest areas during summer, biting through clothes, making outdoor hiking a terrible experience; the weather is unpredictable, with sudden showers and strong winds at any time. Distances between attractions are too far, with most of the day spent traveling, losing the relaxed feeling of a trip due to a "special forces" style rush. Very low commercialization also means poor facilities, few supplies, and few rest areas, making the entire trip feel like making do. 🍁 Authentic Canadian cuisine 🤤 The online rumors about a food desert are true! The overall taste is rather bland, heavy on oil and salt, suitable for a taste but not for eating much 😮‍💨 🦞 Canadian lobster: firm, sweet, and fresh meat, a must-eat main dish, with decent value for money. 🍖 Maple bacon: a local specialty, a unique sweet and savory taste, worth trying. 🥩 AAA-grade steak: firm and tender meat, rich aroma from charcoal grilling. 🥣 Poutine: fries with cheese curds and gravy, calorie-dense, easily gets greasy if you eat too much. 💡 Real experience: very few local food options! After exploring streets and alleys, I ended up relying on Chinese and Korean food to survive. It's really hard to eat like this for a long trip! 💡 Heartfelt travel tips 📝 1. You must drive the entire trip! Practice mountain roads in advance, download full offline maps, as no signal in mountainous areas is common. 2. Fill up the gas tank immediately when it's half full! Gas stations are extremely far apart on rural roads, don't gamble on remaining fuel. 3. For summer travel, prepare strong mosquito repellent, long-sleeved shirts and pants. Mosquitoes in forest areas are highly toxic and dense. 4. The temperature difference between day and night is huge, always carry a jacket. Bring an umbrella for unpredictable weather. 5. Book accommodation and parking in advance. Housing near scenic spots is tight, and parking fees are expensive. 6. When hiking in the wilderness, don't take unofficial paths. Follow park rules and pay attention to outdoor safety. Undeniably, Canada boasts world-class beautiful mountains and rivers 🍁 Pristine lakes, majestic snow-capped mountains, and endless maple leaves are both healing and stunning. But the extremely high costs, long travel times, inadequate facilities, and monotonous food are truly energy-draining! It's suitable for experienced travelers who seek extreme scenery, have ample budget, and are good at driving. For average tourists, a second visit is not recommended. Seeing the stunning scenery once is already fulfilling and leaves no regrets!

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

Green Mountain National Forest Guide | Experience Vermont’s Autumn Fairytale Green Mountain National Forest, located in Santa Ana, is the most famous destination for viewing autumn leaves in Vermont, USA. Every October, the entire park along Route 100 transforms into a brilliant tapestry of red, orange, and yellow forests, dotted with farms and small villages, creating a unique pastoral landscape. Renowned for being the “world’s most vibrant autumn,” you can immerse yourself in this romantic seasonal atmosphere whether by driving, cycling, or hiking. · *Recommended Route** It is suggested to start from the park entrance (R9GG+84V El Salvador) and follow Route 100 deeper into the forest. Along the way, visit local farms to take photos; some offer apple picking and pumpkin patches, which are great for families. The drive takes about 2 hours, with frequent stops at scenic overlooks. Entering the park between 8:00 AM and 9:00 AM is recommended to catch the sunlight hitting the red leaves at their most spectacular. · *Must-Do Activities & Photo Spots** 1.

. Hello, this is Ziwen, always on the road traveling~ . It turns out you don’t have to go far to Africa to feel like you’re at the end of the world; this island gave me that feeling… . The house is built on the cliff’s curve closest to the sea, like the last comma the continent wrote to the ocean. Open the door to see the sea, and the 180-degree floor-to-ceiling windows bring the glassy sea into every turn inside the room. . In the afternoon, walking through the cliff garden and sitting by the edge watching the sea, I suddenly understood what “the ends of the earth” means—not a geographical distance, but a quiet place where your heart can drift away without rushing back. . Before sunset, dive into the heated infinity pool. The water temperature is just like a warm embrace, your body suspended at the boundary between land and sea. Watch the sunset slowly spread over the horizon, the sky turning from fiery orange to deep purple, and the wind carries an indescribable tenderness from afar. . It turns out the Cape of Good Hope isn’t on any map. It’s in the moment when the sea laps at your toes, in the second the cliff catches the setting sun. . [Half-day Island Tour Guide] · Dishui Danping Right below the hotel, the volcanic rock cliff drips water year-round, and at sunset the whole sea turns into flowing molten gold. Recommended to wear a light-colored long dress; the backlit silhouette is poetic. . · Nanwan Catholic Church A century-old building made of coral stone, with stained glass patterns blooming like flowers on the ground in the afternoon. Few people early Monday to Friday mornings. . · Muya Cliff (informal spot, be cautious) A wild cliff known only to locals, at dusk it feels like standing at the world’s end.

Day 1 — Times Square + Midtown Kick off your NYC trip in the heart of Midtown! Hit up the neon-lit Times Square (W 42nd St & Broadway)—this spot is Insta-famous for a reason. Wander toward Bryant Park (6th Ave & W 42nd St), which is the perf chill zone, and swing by the iconic Grand Central Terminal (89 E 42nd St) for some jaw-dropping architecture. Around sunset, hit the Empire State Building (350 5th Ave)—the skyline views are next level Pro tip: All these spots are super close, and the 42nd St subway (A/C/E, 1/2/3, N/Q/R/W, 7, and S trains) keeps you connected if you need a ride. Loop back to Times Square after dark when the city really glows! Day 2 — Statue of Liberty + Lower Manhattan Start your day early with the ferry to Liberty Island (Ferry departs from Battery Park, 8:30am–4:30pm) to snap pics with Lady Liberty. Don’t miss Ellis Island—the museum is sooo fascinating! Ferry info: Subway to South Ferry (1 Line) or Bowling Green (4/5 Line) makes it hassle-free. Back on land, walk through Wall Street (the OG stock market vibes), check out the somber 9/11 Memorial (180 Greenwich St), and explore One World Trade Center for epic views. Lower Manhattan is full of history and legendary sights, so get those walking shoes ready! Day 3 — Central Park + The Met Go green with a morning stroll through Central Park (spanning from 59th–110th St, 6am–1am)—Trip.com says it’s THE most popular NYC spot. Take the subway to 59th St/Columbus Circle (A/B/C/D/1 trains). When noon hits, step inside The Metropolitan Museum of Art (1000 5th Ave, open Sun-Thurs 10am–5pm, Fri+Sat til 9pm), where you can vibe with world-class art and culture. Afterwards, walk down Fifth Avenue—window shopping here is ✨a vibe✨. Day 4 — Brooklyn Bridge + DUMBO Wake up and walk the Brooklyn Bridge (Pedestrian entrance at Park Row & Centre St)—morning light = best photos!

Chill by the Brooklyn waterfront, grab bites from local coffee shops, and when the day wraps up, head back to Manhattan for shopping, a Broadway show, or another epic sunset viewpoint.

After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

I've been longing for this white horse for a long time! When I was in school, I saw my senior's graduation photo and thought that if I had the chance, I would definitely take a photo sitting on a horse's back. More than a year after graduation! I finally got the chance! I got on! Took the photo! No more regrets about USC! It's really impossible to get on with just one person helping. At least one more person is needed! One side needs the photographer to hold my hand, and the other side needs my husband to support my leg to get up (big thanks to these two helpers). Beautiful photos like this are made this way! “As long as I’m not embarrassed, the embarrassed ones are others.”

#fallcolors My visit to Brookline in autumn felt like stepping into a beautiful painting. The streets were lined with trees glowing in shades of golden yellow, fiery orange, and deep red, while the crisp fall air added an unmistakable New England charm. 🍁✨ I loved walking through the peaceful neighborhoods, surrounded by colorful leaves, beautiful homes, and quiet tree-lined streets. Every turn seemed to bring another picture-perfect autumn scene, from leaves scattered across the sidewalks to sunlight filtering through the changing canopy. There was something wonderfully cozy about experiencing Brookline during fall—the slower pace, the cool breeze, and the vibrant colors transforming the familiar landscape. A simple autumn walk, but one filled with beautiful memories. 🍂❤️ #brooklyn #england #fallcolors #Brookline #Massachusetts #BrooklineMA #NewEngland #AutumnInNewEngland #FallFoliage #AutumnColors #MassachusettsFall #NewEnglandFall #USATravel #AutumnVibes #TravelMemories #NatureLovers #Wanderlust #fallcolors #autumnfoliage

If you ask me what the perfect Florida road trip looks like… imagine turquoise water, pastel Art Deco buildings, Cuban coffee, a convertible cruising along an endless ocean bridge, and sunsets that make you forget to check your phone. 🌅🚗 Welcome to Miami + Key West — where city vibes meet tropical island life! 📍 DAY 1 — Hello, Miami! 🏖️ First stop: Lincoln Road for a little shopping, cute cafés, and people-watching. Then head to South Beach, kick off your shoes, and let the Atlantic Ocean say hello. 🌊 The pastel Art Deco buildings, swaying palm trees, colorful lifeguard towers, and golden-hour beach views? Honestly, your camera roll is about to be FULL. 📸 🍹 Must-try: Cuban sandwiches, fresh seafood, and a refreshing mojito. 📍 DAY 2 — Art, Culture & City Adventures 🎨 Miami has so much more than beaches! 🎨 Wynwood Walls — giant murals, bold colors, and street art everywhere. Every corner feels like a different photo shoot. 🇨🇺 Little Havana — Cuban coffee, cigar shops, Latin music, and lively streets. Grab a cafecito and soak up the atmosphere. 🏛️ Freedom Tower — a landmark with a fascinating history. 🏀 Kaseya Center — home of the Miami HEAT. Even if there’s no game, the arena exterior is worth a quick photo stop. 🛥️ Biscayne Bay Cruise — see Miami’s skyline from the water and enjoy those gorgeous waterfront views. 🐊 Everglades Airboat Tour — swap skyscrapers for wild wetlands and keep your eyes open for alligators! Fair warning: Miami’s personality changes every few kilometres. One minute you’re surrounded by murals, the next you’re cruising past luxury yachts or exploring a Cuban neighbourhood. 😂 📍 DAY 3 — The Ultimate Florida Keys Road Trip 🚗💙 This is the day I’d be most excited about! Hit U.S. Route 1 and drive south towards Key West. The journey itself is part of the adventure — ocean views, little islands, roadside stops, and endless shades of blue. 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — one of the most iconic stretches of road in the Florida Keys. Driving across the ocean feels almost unreal. 📍 Key West Southernmost Point — stop at the famous colourful buoy marking the southernmost point of the continental USA. Yes, it’s touristy. Yes, you’re taking the photo anyway. 😂📸 🚶 Duval Street — explore colourful shops, cafés, historic streets, and the island’s laid-back atmosphere. 🍰 Key lime pie — tangy, creamy, and absolutely worth the calories. 🦞 Fresh seafood — because a Florida Keys trip without seafood would be a crime against your taste buds. 🌅 Finish the day by the ocean and watch the sunset. No rushing, no complicated plans — just warm air, sea breezes, and that island feeling. 📍 DAY 4 — Beaches, Wildlife & Palm Beach 🌴 Start with Fort Lauderdale Beach, where the coastline feels a little more relaxed. Take a stroll along the beach, enjoy the sea breeze, and grab some breakfast before heading north. 🦁 Lion Country Safari — a drive-through wildlife adventure where you can see lions, giraffes, zebras, and other animals. Keep your camera ready, but always follow the park’s wildlife safety rules! 🌺 Palm Beach Island — explore the elegant streets around Worth Avenue, admire the Mediterranean-style architecture, and enjoy the boutiques and beautiful coastal scenery. ✈️ Then it’s time to head to the airport and say goodbye to Florida. Four days might not be enough to see absolutely everything, but it’s enough to experience a little bit of everything: beaches, art, wildlife, city life, island roads, and unforgettable sunsets. 📸 IG PHOTO SPOTS YOU NEED TO SAVE ✨ South Beach — pastel Art Deco buildings and palm-lined streets 🎨 Wynwood Walls — colourful murals and street-style shots 🇨🇺 Little Havana — vintage cars, Cuban cafés, and street scenes 🏀 Kaseya Center — Miami HEAT arena exterior 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — turquoise water stretching into the distance 📍 Southernmost Point — the classic Key West photo 🦁 Lion Country Safari — incredible wildlife encounters 🌅 Key West sunset — the perfect golden-hour finale 💡 A few road-trip tips before you go: 🚗 Renting a car makes the Miami–Key West journey much easier. ☀️ Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and comfortable walking shoes. 🎟️ Check opening hours and book popular tours in advance. 🏀 Check the Miami HEAT schedule if you want to catch a game. 🦁 Check safari admission and animal-viewing rules before visiting. ⏰ Day 4 is ambitious: Lion Country Safari is inland, while Palm Beach is farther north. Allow plenty of driving time, and don’t miss your flight trying to squeeze in one more stop! One more thing: if you’re visiting during peak season, give yourself extra time for traffic, parking, and those “wait, let’s take one more photo” moments. 🤭 Miami gives you the energy. Key West gives you the escape. The road between them gives you the memories. 💙 And honestly? That sounds like a pretty good way to spend four days in America. 🇺🇸🌴 #miami #keywest #floridaroadtrip #miamitravel #keywestflorida #southbeachmiami #wynwoodwalls #littlehavana #sevenmilebridge #southernmostpoint #floridakeys #evergladesnationalparkrk #lioncountrysafari #palmbeachflorida #travelusa #usaroadtrip

Background: The following is about my travel experience during the off-season in November, please don’t argue!!! This special forces one-day trip originated because my family went to Cinque Terre in September, but due to lack of experience, they only visited 1.5 villages and left in a hurry, which was very regrettable. So they kept recommending to me, "You have to go! It’s so beautiful! You should stay a few more days!" Such feelings! That’s when I remembered, isn’t this the Lonely Planet cover!! So I took an early train there. On the way, I felt something was off because the sky was full of dark clouds, destined to be a cloudy day!!! Sure enough, about 80% of this place’s beauty comes from full sunshine and bright sun☀️☀️☀️☀️. Without it, it’s quite dull... But the good thing is, the trains are very punctual with no delays, and the pass price dropped from 27 euros to 14.8 euros (if you don’t visit more than 3 villages, please buy a one-way ticket, which also dropped to about 2 euros). Cinque Terre is commonly abbreviated by village numbers according to geography: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I finally decided on the route 5-4-1-2. Village 5 Monterosso al Mare is the only village with a relatively large beach, suitable for swimming and sunbathing. In autumn and winter, no one swims, but I saw a surprise like a Turner painting ੧ᐛ੭ I really liked it! Village 4 Vernazza has a natural harbor and castle, but without the blessing of a big sunny day, the wall colors are actually not vivid at all, quite ordinary. Village 3 Corniglia is the only one not directly by the sea, located on a hilltop, requiring climbing stairs, relatively quiet. My goal was to see the sea, so I gave it up directly. Village 2 Manarola is the classic postcard angle, with magnificent coastline views, very suitable for photography. I also saw people carrying long lenses preparing to shoot the sunset🌇. Like me, we waited until sunset, but everything was different from what we imagined because the clouds covered the sun, and we didn’t capture anything. Not giving up, I and another couple changed positions to try to shoot the buildings sparkling with lights at night, but it was also fruitless. Village 1 Riomaggiore You can see how lively it is in the peak season, but now in the off-season many shops are closed or under renovation. I feel tourists like me wandering around are very few. On the bright side, it’s quite suitable for selfies🤳 because there’s no one on the road, no need to worry about disturbing others. All the above pictures have been skillfully edited and color-corrected by me to be somewhat viewable. In reality, the naked eye sees them as much darker, so I share them as a reference. If you go in autumn or winter, you really need luck✌︎' ֊' Maybe it’s not worth waking up early for once🌞 (the last roar of a late riser!)

#mytripvlog Beautiful fall color around Dillon Dam

New York is great, but I won’t go a second time 💔|A regular traveler’s honest guide to what to avoid I have to admit, New York’s vibe is truly unique. The Manhattan skyline, the Statue of Liberty at dusk, Central Park’s autumn sunsets, the timeless masterpieces at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, street art, Broadway lights—seeing the hustle and romance of this world-class city in person is truly breathtaking. But after experiencing a solo trip firsthand, the exhaustion, hidden costs, and safety concerns add up. No matter how stunning the sights, it’s hard to want to go back. Keep this honest guide to what to avoid handy! ✨ —— 📢 Honest advice to reconsider, set your expectations early 1. Prices are generally high, and tipping is everywhere Restaurants expect 15%–20% tips by default. You also need to tip for coffee, takeout, and hotel housekeeping. Simple meals on the street start at 120 yuan per person, and full meals are over 300 yuan per person. Accommodation is expensive—basic hotels in Manhattan start at 1,000 yuan per night with small rooms. 2. The city is crowded and chaotic, which is physically draining Manhattan is extremely dense and crowded. Most attractions require walking and subway transfers, often walking tens of thousands of steps daily. Trash and homeless people are common on the streets, very different from the polished scenes in movies and TV shows. 3. The subway is old and unsafe The century-old subway system is outdated, with no air conditioning and strong odors. Late-night cars have a mixed crowd, so keep valuables close. Avoid traveling alone during early morning hours. 4. Many hidden fees and traps Observation decks, boat tours, and museums charge separately. Popular combo tickets are expensive. Street performers charge for photos, public restrooms and luggage storage usually require payment. 5. Huge differences between neighborhoods Uptown Manhattan is prosperous and clean. Brooklyn and some remote areas are chaotic. Avoid walking alone late at night. · — 📝 Essential travel info ✅ Visa: US B1/B2 tourist visa, apply in advance. Have round-trip tickets and hotel bookings ready for inspection ✅ Currency: US dollars. Most malls and restaurants accept credit cards. Carry some cash for emergencies ✅ Best travel time: April–June, September–November for comfortable temperatures.

Local chains offer the best value 🔶 Special experiences: Michelin-starred Manhattan restaurants and trendy steakhouses are overpriced. Regular tourists don’t need to rush to these 💡 Money-saving tips 1. Buy water and snacks at supermarkets; convenience stores near attractions charge double 2. Choose pickup when ordering food to avoid delivery tips 3. Chinatown offers great value Chinese food with flavors familiar to Chinese travelers, much cheaper than Western food ⚠️ Important pitfalls to avoid (learned the hard way) 1️⃣ Safety first: carry your backpack in front, watch your phone and wallet in the subway and crowded areas. Don’t engage with overly friendly strangers on the street or accept gifts—they will demand tips later. 2️⃣ Buy tickets online in advance: lines are long and prices are higher on site. Book Statue of Liberty tours, observation decks, and museums on official websites ahead of time. 3️⃣ Remember tipping rules: restaurant bills don’t include tips; you need to add them separately. Leave $1–2 per day for hotel housekeeping. 4️⃣ Transportation: use the subway for short trips. For longer distances, use ride-hailing apps—they cost half as much as hailing taxis on the street. Avoid driving if unfamiliar with the area; parking is very expensive. 5️⃣ Accommodation tips: if on a budget, stay in New Jersey or Long Island suburbs with subway access to Manhattan. You can save half on housing costs but expect longer commutes. Avoid remote neighborhoods. 💰 5-day per person budget reference (excluding international flights) · Comfortable trip: 6,500–10,000 yuan (city hotels + classic attractions + several full meals) · Budget trip: 4,000–5,500 yuan (suburban lodging, public transport, affordable meals) ✨ Final honest words New York is a city of extremes, where top-tier luxury and gritty street life coexist. It’s worth visiting once to see a world-class city firsthand. But if you prefer clean, tidy, stress-free vacations and dislike high tipping and crowded environments, New York probably won’t match your travel style. Adjust your expectations before you go.

Canada 🍁 is great, but I won't go again because it's too grueling ✨ I just returned from an in-depth trip to Canada! Honestly, I'm speaking from the heart 😭 The mountains and rivers here are truly breathtaking; the Rockies, lakes, and Maple Road are all picture-perfect! But the travel experience was truly exhausting, time-consuming, expensive, and incredibly troublesome. It's beautiful but not fun, once is enough! ✈️ Transportation tips 💨 The biggest challenge for traveling in Canada: vast land and sparse population, making travel extremely difficult! International direct flights take a very long time, long-haul flights are super tiring, and jet lag is unbearable 😩 Inter-city distances are extremely far! Vancouver, Toronto, and Banff are thousands of kilometers apart. Inter-city flight tickets are expensive, and travel time is spent enduring the journey. Zero public transportation freedom for city travel ❌ Bus services are extremely infrequent, with waits starting at over ten minutes. Remote scenic spots are mostly inaccessible by direct public transport. ✅ The only solution: you must drive! However, mountain roads have many curves, mountainous areas often have no signal, gas stations are sparse, and roads are dark and deserted after nightfall, which is a direct deterrent for new drivers! Without a car, you can't move an inch; driving keeps you tense the whole time, directly halving your travel happiness! 🏞️ Real experience of attractions 🌿 Objectively speaking! Canada's natural scenery is truly irreplaceable 🍃 The lakes in Banff National Park are crystal clear and blue, with snow-capped mountains reflecting on the surface, creating an ethereal scene; Maple Road is full of autumn vibes; Niagara Falls is magnificent and stunning, curing all visual fatigue. Few crowds, pristine scenery, perfect ecological environment. Every photo is a blockbuster without filters, and the air quality is excellent. But there are too many downsides to count! Prices are ridiculously high 💸. Food, accommodation, and parking are all overpriced, and niche attractions have many hidden fees. Mosquitoes are rampant in forest areas during summer, biting through clothes, making outdoor hiking a terrible experience; the weather is unpredictable, with sudden showers and strong winds at any time. Distances between attractions are too far, with most of the day spent traveling, losing the relaxed feeling of a trip due to a "special forces" style rush. Very low commercialization also means poor facilities, few supplies, and few rest areas, making the entire trip feel like making do. 🍁 Authentic Canadian cuisine 🤤 The online rumors about a food desert are true! The overall taste is rather bland, heavy on oil and salt, suitable for a taste but not for eating much 😮‍💨 🦞 Canadian lobster: firm, sweet, and fresh meat, a must-eat main dish, with decent value for money. 🍖 Maple bacon: a local specialty, a unique sweet and savory taste, worth trying. 🥩 AAA-grade steak: firm and tender meat, rich aroma from charcoal grilling. 🥣 Poutine: fries with cheese curds and gravy, calorie-dense, easily gets greasy if you eat too much. 💡 Real experience: very few local food options! After exploring streets and alleys, I ended up relying on Chinese and Korean food to survive. It's really hard to eat like this for a long trip! 💡 Heartfelt travel tips 📝 1. You must drive the entire trip! Practice mountain roads in advance, download full offline maps, as no signal in mountainous areas is common. 2. Fill up the gas tank immediately when it's half full! Gas stations are extremely far apart on rural roads, don't gamble on remaining fuel. 3. For summer travel, prepare strong mosquito repellent, long-sleeved shirts and pants. Mosquitoes in forest areas are highly toxic and dense. 4. The temperature difference between day and night is huge, always carry a jacket. Bring an umbrella for unpredictable weather. 5. Book accommodation and parking in advance. Housing near scenic spots is tight, and parking fees are expensive. 6. When hiking in the wilderness, don't take unofficial paths. Follow park rules and pay attention to outdoor safety. Undeniably, Canada boasts world-class beautiful mountains and rivers 🍁 Pristine lakes, majestic snow-capped mountains, and endless maple leaves are both healing and stunning. But the extremely high costs, long travel times, inadequate facilities, and monotonous food are truly energy-draining! It's suitable for experienced travelers who seek extreme scenery, have ample budget, and are good at driving. For average tourists, a second visit is not recommended. Seeing the stunning scenery once is already fulfilling and leaves no regrets!

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

. Hello, this is Ziwen, always on the road traveling~ . It turns out you don’t have to go far to Africa to feel like you’re at the end of the world; this island gave me that feeling… . The house is built on the cliff’s curve closest to the sea, like the last comma the continent wrote to the ocean. Open the door to see the sea, and the 180-degree floor-to-ceiling windows bring the glassy sea into every turn inside the room. . In the afternoon, walking through the cliff garden and sitting by the edge watching the sea, I suddenly understood what “the ends of the earth” means—not a geographical distance, but a quiet place where your heart can drift away without rushing back. . Before sunset, dive into the heated infinity pool. The water temperature is just like a warm embrace, your body suspended at the boundary between land and sea. Watch the sunset slowly spread over the horizon, the sky turning from fiery orange to deep purple, and the wind carries an indescribable tenderness from afar. . It turns out the Cape of Good Hope isn’t on any map. It’s in the moment when the sea laps at your toes, in the second the cliff catches the setting sun. . [Half-day Island Tour Guide] · Dishui Danping Right below the hotel, the volcanic rock cliff drips water year-round, and at sunset the whole sea turns into flowing molten gold. Recommended to wear a light-colored long dress; the backlit silhouette is poetic. . · Nanwan Catholic Church A century-old building made of coral stone, with stained glass patterns blooming like flowers on the ground in the afternoon. Few people early Monday to Friday mornings. . · Muya Cliff (informal spot, be cautious) A wild cliff known only to locals, at dusk it feels like standing at the world’s end. Wear non-slip shoes and go with companions. . · Shiluokou Beach The clearest part of the glassy sea, where you can see the shadows of underwater coral under the afternoon sun. .

After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

I've been longing for this white horse for a long time! When I was in school, I saw my senior's graduation photo and thought that if I had the chance, I would definitely take a photo sitting on a horse's back. More than a year after graduation! I finally got the chance! I got on! Took the photo! No more regrets about USC! It's really impossible to get on with just one person helping. At least one more person is needed! One side needs the photographer to hold my hand, and the other side needs my husband to support my leg to get up (big thanks to these two helpers). Beautiful photos like this are made this way! “As long as I’m not embarrassed, the embarrassed ones are others.”

#fallcolors My visit to Brookline in autumn felt like stepping into a beautiful painting. The streets were lined with trees glowing in shades of golden yellow, fiery orange, and deep red, while the crisp fall air added an unmistakable New England charm. 🍁✨ I loved walking through the peaceful neighborhoods, surrounded by colorful leaves, beautiful homes, and quiet tree-lined streets. Every turn seemed to bring another picture-perfect autumn scene, from leaves scattered across the sidewalks to sunlight filtering through the changing canopy. There was something wonderfully cozy about experiencing Brookline during fall—the slower pace, the cool breeze, and the vibrant colors transforming the familiar landscape. A simple autumn walk, but one filled with beautiful memories. 🍂❤️ #brooklyn #england #fallcolors #Brookline #Massachusetts #BrooklineMA #NewEngland #AutumnInNewEngland #FallFoliage #AutumnColors #MassachusettsFall #NewEnglandFall #USATravel #AutumnVibes #TravelMemories #NatureLovers #Wanderlust #fallcolors #autumnfoliage

If you ask me what the perfect Florida road trip looks like… imagine turquoise water, pastel Art Deco buildings, Cuban coffee, a convertible cruising along an endless ocean bridge, and sunsets that make you forget to check your phone. 🌅🚗 Welcome to Miami + Key West — where city vibes meet tropical island life! 📍 DAY 1 — Hello, Miami! 🏖️ First stop: Lincoln Road for a little shopping, cute cafés, and people-watching. Then head to South Beach, kick off your shoes, and let the Atlantic Ocean say hello. 🌊 The pastel Art Deco buildings, swaying palm trees, colorful lifeguard towers, and golden-hour beach views? Honestly, your camera roll is about to be FULL. 📸 🍹 Must-try: Cuban sandwiches, fresh seafood, and a refreshing mojito. 📍 DAY 2 — Art, Culture & City Adventures 🎨 Miami has so much more than beaches! 🎨 Wynwood Walls — giant murals, bold colors, and street art everywhere. Every corner feels like a different photo shoot. 🇨🇺 Little Havana — Cuban coffee, cigar shops, Latin music, and lively streets. Grab a cafecito and soak up the atmosphere. 🏛️ Freedom Tower — a landmark with a fascinating history. 🏀 Kaseya Center — home of the Miami HEAT. Even if there’s no game, the arena exterior is worth a quick photo stop. 🛥️ Biscayne Bay Cruise — see Miami’s skyline from the water and enjoy those gorgeous waterfront views. 🐊 Everglades Airboat Tour — swap skyscrapers for wild wetlands and keep your eyes open for alligators! Fair warning: Miami’s personality changes every few kilometres. One minute you’re surrounded by murals, the next you’re cruising past luxury yachts or exploring a Cuban neighbourhood. 😂 📍 DAY 3 — The Ultimate Florida Keys Road Trip 🚗💙 This is the day I’d be most excited about! Hit U.S. Route 1 and drive south towards Key West. The journey itself is part of the adventure — ocean views, little islands, roadside stops, and endless shades of blue. 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — one of the most iconic stretches of road in the Florida Keys. Driving across the ocean feels almost unreal. 📍 Key West Southernmost Point — stop at the famous colourful buoy marking the southernmost point of the continental USA. Yes, it’s touristy. Yes, you’re taking the photo anyway. 😂📸 🚶 Duval Street — explore colourful shops, cafés, historic streets, and the island’s laid-back atmosphere. 🍰 Key lime pie — tangy, creamy, and absolutely worth the calories. 🦞 Fresh seafood — because a Florida Keys trip without seafood would be a crime against your taste buds. 🌅 Finish the day by the ocean and watch the sunset. No rushing, no complicated plans — just warm air, sea breezes, and that island feeling. 📍 DAY 4 — Beaches, Wildlife & Palm Beach 🌴 Start with Fort Lauderdale Beach, where the coastline feels a little more relaxed. Take a stroll along the beach, enjoy the sea breeze, and grab some breakfast before heading north. 🦁 Lion Country Safari — a drive-through wildlife adventure where you can see lions, giraffes, zebras, and other animals. Keep your camera ready, but always follow the park’s wildlife safety rules! 🌺 Palm Beach Island — explore the elegant streets around Worth Avenue, admire the Mediterranean-style architecture, and enjoy the boutiques and beautiful coastal scenery. ✈️ Then it’s time to head to the airport and say goodbye to Florida. Four days might not be enough to see absolutely everything, but it’s enough to experience a little bit of everything: beaches, art, wildlife, city life, island roads, and unforgettable sunsets. 📸 IG PHOTO SPOTS YOU NEED TO SAVE ✨ South Beach — pastel Art Deco buildings and palm-lined streets 🎨 Wynwood Walls — colourful murals and street-style shots 🇨🇺 Little Havana — vintage cars, Cuban cafés, and street scenes 🏀 Kaseya Center — Miami HEAT arena exterior 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — turquoise water stretching into the distance 📍 Southernmost Point — the classic Key West photo 🦁 Lion Country Safari — incredible wildlife encounters 🌅 Key West sunset — the perfect golden-hour finale 💡 A few road-trip tips before you go: 🚗 Renting a car makes the Miami–Key West journey much easier. ☀️ Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and comfortable walking shoes. 🎟️ Check opening hours and book popular tours in advance. 🏀 Check the Miami HEAT schedule if you want to catch a game. 🦁 Check safari admission and animal-viewing rules before visiting. ⏰ Day 4 is ambitious: Lion Country Safari is inland, while Palm Beach is farther north. Allow plenty of driving time, and don’t miss your flight trying to squeeze in one more stop! One more thing: if you’re visiting during peak season, give yourself extra time for traffic, parking, and those “wait, let’s take one more photo” moments. 🤭 Miami gives you the energy. Key West gives you the escape. The road between them gives you the memories. 💙 And honestly? That sounds like a pretty good way to spend four days in America. 🇺🇸🌴 #miami #keywest #floridaroadtrip #miamitravel #keywestflorida #southbeachmiami #wynwoodwalls #littlehavana #sevenmilebridge #southernmostpoint #floridakeys #evergladesnationalparkrk #lioncountrysafari #palmbeachflorida #travelusa #usaroadtrip

Background: The following is about my travel experience during the off-season in November, please don’t argue!!! This special forces one-day trip originated because my family went to Cinque Terre in September, but due to lack of experience, they only visited 1.5 villages and left in a hurry, which was very regrettable. So they kept recommending to me, "You have to go! It’s so beautiful! You should stay a few more days!" Such feelings! That’s when I remembered, isn’t this the Lonely Planet cover!! So I took an early train there. On the way, I felt something was off because the sky was full of dark clouds, destined to be a cloudy day!!! Sure enough, about 80% of this place’s beauty comes from full sunshine and bright sun☀️☀️☀️☀️. Without it, it’s quite dull... But the good thing is, the trains are very punctual with no delays, and the pass price dropped from 27 euros to 14.8 euros (if you don’t visit more than 3 villages, please buy a one-way ticket, which also dropped to about 2 euros). Cinque Terre is commonly abbreviated by village numbers according to geography: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I finally decided on the route 5-4-1-2. Village 5 Monterosso al Mare is the only village with a relatively large beach, suitable for swimming and sunbathing. In autumn and winter, no one swims, but I saw a surprise like a Turner painting ੧ᐛ੭ I really liked it! Village 4 Vernazza has a natural harbor and castle, but without the blessing of a big sunny day, the wall colors are actually not vivid at all, quite ordinary. Village 3 Corniglia is the only one not directly by the sea, located on a hilltop, requiring climbing stairs, relatively quiet. My goal was to see the sea, so I gave it up directly. Village 2 Manarola is the classic postcard angle, with magnificent coastline views, very suitable for photography. I also saw people carrying long lenses preparing to shoot the sunset🌇. Like me, we waited until sunset, but everything was different from what we imagined because the clouds covered the sun, and we didn’t capture anything. Not giving up, I and another couple changed positions to try to shoot the buildings sparkling with lights at night, but it was also fruitless. Village 1 Riomaggiore You can see how lively it is in the peak season, but now in the off-season many shops are closed or under renovation. I feel tourists like me wandering around are very few. On the bright side, it’s quite suitable for selfies🤳 because there’s no one on the road, no need to worry about disturbing others. All the above pictures have been skillfully edited and color-corrected by me to be somewhat viewable. In reality, the naked eye sees them as much darker, so I share them as a reference. If you go in autumn or winter, you really need luck✌︎' ֊' Maybe it’s not worth waking up early for once🌞 (the last roar of a late riser!)

#mytripvlog Beautiful fall color around Dillon Dam

New York is great, but I won’t go a second time 💔|A regular traveler’s honest guide to what to avoid I have to admit, New York’s vibe is truly unique. The Manhattan skyline, the Statue of Liberty at dusk, Central Park’s autumn sunsets, the timeless masterpieces at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, street art, Broadway lights—seeing the hustle and romance of this world-class city in person is truly breathtaking. But after experiencing a solo trip firsthand, the exhaustion, hidden costs, and safety concerns add up. No matter how stunning the sights, it’s hard to want to go back. Keep this honest guide to what to avoid handy! ✨ —— 📢 Honest advice to reconsider, set your expectations early 1. Prices are generally high, and tipping is everywhere Restaurants expect 15%–20% tips by default. You also need to tip for coffee, takeout, and hotel housekeeping. Simple meals on the street start at 120 yuan per person, and full meals are over 300 yuan per person. Accommodation is expensive—basic hotels in Manhattan start at 1,000 yuan per night with small rooms. 2. The city is crowded and chaotic, which is physically draining Manhattan is extremely dense and crowded. Most attractions require walking and subway transfers, often walking tens of thousands of steps daily. Trash and homeless people are common on the streets, very different from the polished scenes in movies and TV shows. 3. The subway is old and unsafe The century-old subway system is outdated, with no air conditioning and strong odors. Late-night cars have a mixed crowd, so keep valuables close. Avoid traveling alone during early morning hours. 4. Many hidden fees and traps Observation decks, boat tours, and museums charge separately. Popular combo tickets are expensive. Street performers charge for photos, public restrooms and luggage storage usually require payment. 5. Huge differences between neighborhoods Uptown Manhattan is prosperous and clean. Brooklyn and some remote areas are chaotic. Avoid walking alone late at night. · — 📝 Essential travel info ✅ Visa: US B1/B2 tourist visa, apply in advance. Have round-trip tickets and hotel bookings ready for inspection ✅ Currency: US dollars. Most malls and restaurants accept credit cards. Carry some cash for emergencies ✅ Best travel time: April–June, September–November for comfortable temperatures. Summers are hot and rainy, winters are very cold ✅ Must-haves: portable anti-theft bag, comfortable walking shoes, power adapter, mask (subway ventilation is poor) · — 🗓 Classic 5-day relaxed itinerary (no boot camp) Day 1 Downtown Manhattan landmarks Statue of Liberty boat tour (buy tickets online in advance) → Wall Street bull → Walk Brooklyn Bridge, capture Manhattan skyline sunset in the evening Day 2 Midtown core shopping district Choose either Empire State Building or Top of the Rock observation deck → Times Square → Broadway show (buy tickets online in advance for better prices) Day 3 Artsy slow day Spend the day wandering Central Park → Metropolitan Museum of Art, allow half a day or more to explore slowly, watch the park sunset in the evening Day 4 Off-the-beaten-path route High Line Park → Chelsea art district → Flatiron Building, experience the city’s popular elevated walkway Day 5 Shopping and rest Shop along Fifth Avenue or visit a lesser-known Jersey City viewpoint to avoid city crowds, then rest before heading home · — 🍽 Food guide, save money and avoid pitfalls 🔶 Affordable must-tries: Shake Shack burgers, New York pizza, bagel breakfast. Local chains offer the best value 🔶 Special experiences: Michelin-starred Manhattan restaurants and trendy steakhouses are overpriced. Regular tourists don’t need to rush to these 💡 Money-saving tips 1. Buy water and snacks at supermarkets; convenience stores near attractions charge double 2. Choose pickup when ordering food to avoid delivery tips 3. Chinatown offers great value Chinese food with flavors familiar to Chinese travelers, much cheaper than Western food ⚠️ Important pitfalls to avoid (learned the hard way) 1️⃣ Safety first: carry your backpack in front, watch your phone and wallet in the subway and crowded areas. Don’t engage with overly friendly strangers on the street or accept gifts—they will demand tips later. 2️⃣ Buy tickets online in advance: lines are long and prices are higher on site. Book Statue of Liberty tours, observation decks, and museums on official websites ahead of time. 3️⃣ Remember tipping rules: restaurant bills don’t include tips; you need to add them separately. Leave $1–2 per day for hotel housekeeping. 4️⃣ Transportation: use the subway for short trips. For longer distances, use ride-hailing apps—they cost half as much as hailing taxis on the street. Avoid driving if unfamiliar with the area; parking is very expensive. 5️⃣ Accommodation tips: if on a budget, stay in New Jersey or Long Island suburbs with subway access to Manhattan. You can save half on housing costs but expect longer commutes. Avoid remote neighborhoods. 💰 5-day per person budget reference (excluding international flights) · Comfortable trip: 6,500–10,000 yuan (city hotels + classic attractions + several full meals) · Budget trip: 4,000–5,500 yuan (suburban lodging, public transport, affordable meals) ✨ Final honest words New York is a city of extremes, where top-tier luxury and gritty street life coexist. It’s worth visiting once to see a world-class city firsthand. But if you prefer clean, tidy, stress-free vacations and dislike high tipping and crowded environments, New York probably won’t match your travel style. Adjust your expectations before you go.

#mytripvlog Historic Holy Trinity Episcopal Church was formed in the living room of the founder of the City of Covina, J.S. Phillips, on Trinity Sunday in 1887. It turned 135 years old this year, designed by artchtector Fr. Alfred Fletcher. Steeped in liturgical traditions, it also embraces progressive values.

Canada 🍁 is great, but I won't go again because it's too grueling ✨ I just returned from an in-depth trip to Canada! Honestly, I'm speaking from the heart 😭 The mountains and rivers here are truly breathtaking; the Rockies, lakes, and Maple Road are all picture-perfect! But the travel experience was truly exhausting, time-consuming, expensive, and incredibly troublesome. It's beautiful but not fun, once is enough! ✈️ Transportation tips 💨 The biggest challenge for traveling in Canada: vast land and sparse population, making travel extremely difficult! International direct flights take a very long time, long-haul flights are super tiring, and jet lag is unbearable 😩 Inter-city distances are extremely far! Vancouver, Toronto, and Banff are thousands of kilometers apart. Inter-city flight tickets are expensive, and travel time is spent enduring the journey. Zero public transportation freedom for city travel ❌ Bus services are extremely infrequent, with waits starting at over ten minutes. Remote scenic spots are mostly inaccessible by direct public transport. ✅ The only solution: you must drive! However, mountain roads have many curves, mountainous areas often have no signal, gas stations are sparse, and roads are dark and deserted after nightfall, which is a direct deterrent for new drivers! Without a car, you can't move an inch; driving keeps you tense the whole time, directly halving your travel happiness! 🏞️ Real experience of attractions 🌿 Objectively speaking! Canada's natural scenery is truly irreplaceable 🍃 The lakes in Banff National Park are crystal clear and blue, with snow-capped mountains reflecting on the surface, creating an ethereal scene; Maple Road is full of autumn vibes; Niagara Falls is magnificent and stunning, curing all visual fatigue. Few crowds, pristine scenery, perfect ecological environment. Every photo is a blockbuster without filters, and the air quality is excellent. But there are too many downsides to count! Prices are ridiculously high 💸. Food, accommodation, and parking are all overpriced, and niche attractions have many hidden fees. Mosquitoes are rampant in forest areas during summer, biting through clothes, making outdoor hiking a terrible experience; the weather is unpredictable, with sudden showers and strong winds at any time. Distances between attractions are too far, with most of the day spent traveling, losing the relaxed feeling of a trip due to a "special forces" style rush. Very low commercialization also means poor facilities, few supplies, and few rest areas, making the entire trip feel like making do. 🍁 Authentic Canadian cuisine 🤤 The online rumors about a food desert are true! The overall taste is rather bland, heavy on oil and salt, suitable for a taste but not for eating much 😮‍💨 🦞 Canadian lobster: firm, sweet, and fresh meat, a must-eat main dish, with decent value for money. 🍖 Maple bacon: a local specialty, a unique sweet and savory taste, worth trying. 🥩 AAA-grade steak: firm and tender meat, rich aroma from charcoal grilling. 🥣 Poutine: fries with cheese curds and gravy, calorie-dense, easily gets greasy if you eat too much. 💡 Real experience: very few local food options! After exploring streets and alleys, I ended up relying on Chinese and Korean food to survive. It's really hard to eat like this for a long trip! 💡 Heartfelt travel tips 📝 1. You must drive the entire trip! Practice mountain roads in advance, download full offline maps, as no signal in mountainous areas is common. 2. Fill up the gas tank immediately when it's half full! Gas stations are extremely far apart on rural roads, don't gamble on remaining fuel. 3. For summer travel, prepare strong mosquito repellent, long-sleeved shirts and pants. Mosquitoes in forest areas are highly toxic and dense. 4. The temperature difference between day and night is huge, always carry a jacket. Bring an umbrella for unpredictable weather. 5. Book accommodation and parking in advance. Housing near scenic spots is tight, and parking fees are expensive. 6. When hiking in the wilderness, don't take unofficial paths. Follow park rules and pay attention to outdoor safety. Undeniably, Canada boasts world-class beautiful mountains and rivers 🍁 Pristine lakes, majestic snow-capped mountains, and endless maple leaves are both healing and stunning. But the extremely high costs, long travel times, inadequate facilities, and monotonous food are truly energy-draining! It's suitable for experienced travelers who seek extreme scenery, have ample budget, and are good at driving. For average tourists, a second visit is not recommended. Seeing the stunning scenery once is already fulfilling and leaves no regrets!

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

. Hello, this is Ziwen, always on the road traveling~ . It turns out you don’t have to go far to Africa to feel like you’re at the end of the world; this island gave me that feeling… . The house is built on the cliff’s curve closest to the sea, like the last comma the continent wrote to the ocean. Open the door to see the sea, and the 180-degree floor-to-ceiling windows bring the glassy sea into every turn inside the room. . In the afternoon, walking through the cliff garden and sitting by the edge watching the sea, I suddenly understood what “the ends of the earth” means—not a geographical distance, but a quiet place where your heart can drift away without rushing back. . Before sunset, dive into the heated infinity pool. The water temperature is just like a warm embrace, your body suspended at the boundary between land and sea. Watch the sunset slowly spread over the horizon, the sky turning from fiery orange to deep purple, and the wind carries an indescribable tenderness from afar. . It turns out the Cape of Good Hope isn’t on any map. It’s in the moment when the sea laps at your toes, in the second the cliff catches the setting sun. . [Half-day Island Tour Guide] · Dishui Danping Right below the hotel, the volcanic rock cliff drips water year-round, and at sunset the whole sea turns into flowing molten gold. Recommended to wear a light-colored long dress; the backlit silhouette is poetic. . · Nanwan Catholic Church A century-old building made of coral stone, with stained glass patterns blooming like flowers on the ground in the afternoon. Few people early Monday to Friday mornings. . · Muya Cliff (informal spot, be cautious) A wild cliff known only to locals, at dusk it feels like standing at the world’s end. Wear non-slip shoes and go with companions. . · Shiluokou Beach The clearest part of the glassy sea, where you can see the shadows of underwater coral under the afternoon sun. .

After eight years, I finally got to attend a World Cup match in person again. Woke up at 6 AM, had three eggs, a corn cob, and a protein shake with milk, then drove eight hours straight to Kansas City to catch the first group stage match. Every bit of it was worth it! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Group stage opener: 3-0—another unforgettable historic night. Eight years ago, I saw you score the only goal for that World Cup. Eight years later, I witnessed your first hat-trick on the World Cup stage ⚽️⚽️⚽️. The Argentina team led by Scaloni is completely different from the one eight years ago, but what hasn’t changed is you 🐐👑. Here’s my KC match experience 👇 Today’s match, being the first World Cup game hosted in Kansas City, was a letdown in terms of on-site experience. In one word: bad. In two words: very bad. In three words: extremely bad! 😤😤😤 1. Got in line for security at 5 PM sharp, but it took a full 45 minutes to get through. 2. The fan experience activities at the venue were poorly organized. Despite the large open space, the activities felt like a hastily thrown-together amateur setup. For example, the photo booth for creating player cards had only one machine, resulting in a long line. On average, it took two minutes per person, so unless you were willing to wait two hours, you wouldn’t get your turn! Think twice before joining this line! The face-painting stations for national flags only had two counters. I waited over ten minutes without moving an inch—absolutely frustrating. 3. Avoid choosing non-popular park & ride pickup points❕❕❕ I picked the Independence Center shuttle point to get to the stadium. After the match, when trying to return, shuttles to this less popular point were scarce. Meanwhile, multiple empty buses were heading to the Plaza shuttle point. I had to wait for over ten buses before finally getting one to Independence Center! The organizers didn’t allow buses to adjust routes to accommodate stranded fans at less popular points. Watching others leave while I was stuck there, exhausted and starving, left me speechless 🙄. I was too tired to even complain 😅. In conclusion, I now fully understand why some media outlets rated KC as the worst host city before the tournament 🫪.

I've been longing for this white horse for a long time! When I was in school, I saw my senior's graduation photo and thought that if I had the chance, I would definitely take a photo sitting on a horse's back. More than a year after graduation! I finally got the chance! I got on! Took the photo! No more regrets about USC! It's really impossible to get on with just one person helping. At least one more person is needed! One side needs the photographer to hold my hand, and the other side needs my husband to support my leg to get up (big thanks to these two helpers). Beautiful photos like this are made this way! “As long as I’m not embarrassed, the embarrassed ones are others.”

#fallcolors My visit to Brookline in autumn felt like stepping into a beautiful painting. The streets were lined with trees glowing in shades of golden yellow, fiery orange, and deep red, while the crisp fall air added an unmistakable New England charm. 🍁✨ I loved walking through the peaceful neighborhoods, surrounded by colorful leaves, beautiful homes, and quiet tree-lined streets. Every turn seemed to bring another picture-perfect autumn scene, from leaves scattered across the sidewalks to sunlight filtering through the changing canopy. There was something wonderfully cozy about experiencing Brookline during fall—the slower pace, the cool breeze, and the vibrant colors transforming the familiar landscape. A simple autumn walk, but one filled with beautiful memories. 🍂❤️ #brooklyn #england #fallcolors #Brookline #Massachusetts #BrooklineMA #NewEngland #AutumnInNewEngland #FallFoliage #AutumnColors #MassachusettsFall #NewEnglandFall #USATravel #AutumnVibes #TravelMemories #NatureLovers #Wanderlust #fallcolors #autumnfoliage

If you ask me what the perfect Florida road trip looks like… imagine turquoise water, pastel Art Deco buildings, Cuban coffee, a convertible cruising along an endless ocean bridge, and sunsets that make you forget to check your phone. 🌅🚗 Welcome to Miami + Key West — where city vibes meet tropical island life! 📍 DAY 1 — Hello, Miami! 🏖️ First stop: Lincoln Road for a little shopping, cute cafés, and people-watching. Then head to South Beach, kick off your shoes, and let the Atlantic Ocean say hello. 🌊 The pastel Art Deco buildings, swaying palm trees, colorful lifeguard towers, and golden-hour beach views? Honestly, your camera roll is about to be FULL. 📸 🍹 Must-try: Cuban sandwiches, fresh seafood, and a refreshing mojito. 📍 DAY 2 — Art, Culture & City Adventures 🎨 Miami has so much more than beaches! 🎨 Wynwood Walls — giant murals, bold colors, and street art everywhere. Every corner feels like a different photo shoot. 🇨🇺 Little Havana — Cuban coffee, cigar shops, Latin music, and lively streets. Grab a cafecito and soak up the atmosphere. 🏛️ Freedom Tower — a landmark with a fascinating history. 🏀 Kaseya Center — home of the Miami HEAT. Even if there’s no game, the arena exterior is worth a quick photo stop. 🛥️ Biscayne Bay Cruise — see Miami’s skyline from the water and enjoy those gorgeous waterfront views. 🐊 Everglades Airboat Tour — swap skyscrapers for wild wetlands and keep your eyes open for alligators! Fair warning: Miami’s personality changes every few kilometres. One minute you’re surrounded by murals, the next you’re cruising past luxury yachts or exploring a Cuban neighbourhood. 😂 📍 DAY 3 — The Ultimate Florida Keys Road Trip 🚗💙 This is the day I’d be most excited about! Hit U.S. Route 1 and drive south towards Key West. The journey itself is part of the adventure — ocean views, little islands, roadside stops, and endless shades of blue. 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — one of the most iconic stretches of road in the Florida Keys. Driving across the ocean feels almost unreal. 📍 Key West Southernmost Point — stop at the famous colourful buoy marking the southernmost point of the continental USA. Yes, it’s touristy. Yes, you’re taking the photo anyway. 😂📸 🚶 Duval Street — explore colourful shops, cafés, historic streets, and the island’s laid-back atmosphere. 🍰 Key lime pie — tangy, creamy, and absolutely worth the calories. 🦞 Fresh seafood — because a Florida Keys trip without seafood would be a crime against your taste buds. 🌅 Finish the day by the ocean and watch the sunset. No rushing, no complicated plans — just warm air, sea breezes, and that island feeling. 📍 DAY 4 — Beaches, Wildlife & Palm Beach 🌴 Start with Fort Lauderdale Beach, where the coastline feels a little more relaxed. Take a stroll along the beach, enjoy the sea breeze, and grab some breakfast before heading north. 🦁 Lion Country Safari — a drive-through wildlife adventure where you can see lions, giraffes, zebras, and other animals. Keep your camera ready, but always follow the park’s wildlife safety rules! 🌺 Palm Beach Island — explore the elegant streets around Worth Avenue, admire the Mediterranean-style architecture, and enjoy the boutiques and beautiful coastal scenery. ✈️ Then it’s time to head to the airport and say goodbye to Florida. Four days might not be enough to see absolutely everything, but it’s enough to experience a little bit of everything: beaches, art, wildlife, city life, island roads, and unforgettable sunsets. 📸 IG PHOTO SPOTS YOU NEED TO SAVE ✨ South Beach — pastel Art Deco buildings and palm-lined streets 🎨 Wynwood Walls — colourful murals and street-style shots 🇨🇺 Little Havana — vintage cars, Cuban cafés, and street scenes 🏀 Kaseya Center — Miami HEAT arena exterior 🌉 Seven Mile Bridge — turquoise water stretching into the distance 📍 Southernmost Point — the classic Key West photo 🦁 Lion Country Safari — incredible wildlife encounters 🌅 Key West sunset — the perfect golden-hour finale 💡 A few road-trip tips before you go: 🚗 Renting a car makes the Miami–Key West journey much easier. ☀️ Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and comfortable walking shoes. 🎟️ Check opening hours and book popular tours in advance. 🏀 Check the Miami HEAT schedule if you want to catch a game. 🦁 Check safari admission and animal-viewing rules before visiting. ⏰ Day 4 is ambitious: Lion Country Safari is inland, while Palm Beach is farther north. Allow plenty of driving time, and don’t miss your flight trying to squeeze in one more stop! One more thing: if you’re visiting during peak season, give yourself extra time for traffic, parking, and those “wait, let’s take one more photo” moments. 🤭 Miami gives you the energy. Key West gives you the escape. The road between them gives you the memories. 💙 And honestly? That sounds like a pretty good way to spend four days in America. 🇺🇸🌴 #miami #keywest #floridaroadtrip #miamitravel #keywestflorida #southbeachmiami #wynwoodwalls #littlehavana #sevenmilebridge #southernmostpoint #floridakeys #evergladesnationalparkrk #lioncountrysafari #palmbeachflorida #travelusa #usaroadtrip

Background: The following is about my travel experience during the off-season in November, please don’t argue!!! This special forces one-day trip originated because my family went to Cinque Terre in September, but due to lack of experience, they only visited 1.5 villages and left in a hurry, which was very regrettable. So they kept recommending to me, "You have to go! It’s so beautiful! You should stay a few more days!" Such feelings! That’s when I remembered, isn’t this the Lonely Planet cover!! So I took an early train there. On the way, I felt something was off because the sky was full of dark clouds, destined to be a cloudy day!!! Sure enough, about 80% of this place’s beauty comes from full sunshine and bright sun☀️☀️☀️☀️. Without it, it’s quite dull... But the good thing is, the trains are very punctual with no delays, and the pass price dropped from 27 euros to 14.8 euros (if you don’t visit more than 3 villages, please buy a one-way ticket, which also dropped to about 2 euros). Cinque Terre is commonly abbreviated by village numbers according to geography: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I finally decided on the route 5-4-1-2. Village 5 Monterosso al Mare is the only village with a relatively large beach, suitable for swimming and sunbathing. In autumn and winter, no one swims, but I saw a surprise like a Turner painting ੧ᐛ੭ I really liked it! Village 4 Vernazza has a natural harbor and castle, but without the blessing of a big sunny day, the wall colors are actually not vivid at all, quite ordinary. Village 3 Corniglia is the only one not directly by the sea, located on a hilltop, requiring climbing stairs, relatively quiet. My goal was to see the sea, so I gave it up directly. Village 2 Manarola is the classic postcard angle, with magnificent coastline views, very suitable for photography. I also saw people carrying long lenses preparing to shoot the sunset🌇. Like me, we waited until sunset, but everything was different from what we imagined because the clouds covered the sun, and we didn’t capture anything. Not giving up, I and another couple changed positions to try to shoot the buildings sparkling with lights at night, but it was also fruitless. Village 1 Riomaggiore You can see how lively it is in the peak season, but now in the off-season many shops are closed or under renovation. I feel tourists like me wandering around are very few. On the bright side, it’s quite suitable for selfies🤳 because there’s no one on the road, no need to worry about disturbing others. All the above pictures have been skillfully edited and color-corrected by me to be somewhat viewable. In reality, the naked eye sees them as much darker, so I share them as a reference. If you go in autumn or winter, you really need luck✌︎' ֊' Maybe it’s not worth waking up early for once🌞 (the last roar of a late riser!)

#mytripvlog Beautiful fall color around Dillon Dam

New York is great, but I won’t go a second time 💔|A regular traveler’s honest guide to what to avoid I have to admit, New York’s vibe is truly unique. The Manhattan skyline, the Statue of Liberty at dusk, Central Park’s autumn sunsets, the timeless masterpieces at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, street art, Broadway lights—seeing the hustle and romance of this world-class city in person is truly breathtaking. But after experiencing a solo trip firsthand, the exhaustion, hidden costs, and safety concerns add up. No matter how stunning the sights, it’s hard to want to go back. Keep this honest guide to what to avoid handy! ✨ —— 📢 Honest advice to reconsider, set your expectations early 1. Prices are generally high, and tipping is everywhere Restaurants expect 15%–20% tips by default. You also need to tip for coffee, takeout, and hotel housekeeping. Simple meals on the street start at 120 yuan per person, and full meals are over 300 yuan per person. Accommodation is expensive—basic hotels in Manhattan start at 1,000 yuan per night with small rooms. 2. The city is crowded and chaotic, which is physically draining Manhattan is extremely dense and crowded. Most attractions require walking and subway transfers, often walking tens of thousands of steps daily. Trash and homeless people are common on the streets, very different from the polished scenes in movies and TV shows. 3. The subway is old and unsafe The century-old subway system is outdated, with no air conditioning and strong odors. Late-night cars have a mixed crowd, so keep valuables close. Avoid traveling alone during early morning hours. 4. Many hidden fees and traps Observation decks, boat tours, and museums charge separately. Popular combo tickets are expensive. Street performers charge for photos, public restrooms and luggage storage usually require payment. 5. Huge differences between neighborhoods Uptown Manhattan is prosperous and clean. Brooklyn and some remote areas are chaotic. Avoid walking alone late at night. · — 📝 Essential travel info ✅ Visa: US B1/B2 tourist visa, apply in advance. Have round-trip tickets and hotel bookings ready for inspection ✅ Currency: US dollars. Most malls and restaurants accept credit cards. Carry some cash for emergencies ✅ Best travel time: April–June, September–November for comfortable temperatures. Summers are hot and rainy, winters are very cold ✅ Must-haves: portable anti-theft bag, comfortable walking shoes, power adapter, mask (subway ventilation is poor) · — 🗓 Classic 5-day relaxed itinerary (no boot camp) Day 1 Downtown Manhattan landmarks Statue of Liberty boat tour (buy tickets online in advance) → Wall Street bull → Walk Brooklyn Bridge, capture Manhattan skyline sunset in the evening Day 2 Midtown core shopping district Choose either Empire State Building or Top of the Rock observation deck → Times Square → Broadway show (buy tickets online in advance for better prices) Day 3 Artsy slow day Spend the day wandering Central Park → Metropolitan Museum of Art, allow half a day or more to explore slowly, watch the park sunset in the evening Day 4 Off-the-beaten-path route High Line Park → Chelsea art district → Flatiron Building, experience the city’s popular elevated walkway Day 5 Shopping and rest Shop along Fifth Avenue or visit a lesser-known Jersey City viewpoint to avoid city crowds, then rest before heading home · — 🍽 Food guide, save money and avoid pitfalls 🔶 Affordable must-tries: Shake Shack burgers, New York pizza, bagel breakfast. Local chains offer the best value 🔶 Special experiences: Michelin-starred Manhattan restaurants and trendy steakhouses are overpriced. Regular tourists don’t need to rush to these 💡 Money-saving tips 1. Buy water and snacks at supermarkets; convenience stores near attractions charge double 2. Choose pickup when ordering food to avoid delivery tips 3. Chinatown offers great value Chinese food with flavors familiar to Chinese travelers, much cheaper than Western food ⚠️ Important pitfalls to avoid (learned the hard way) 1️⃣ Safety first: carry your backpack in front, watch your phone and wallet in the subway and crowded areas. Don’t engage with overly friendly strangers on the street or accept gifts—they will demand tips later. 2️⃣ Buy tickets online in advance: lines are long and prices are higher on site. Book Statue of Liberty tours, observation decks, and museums on official websites ahead of time. 3️⃣ Remember tipping rules: restaurant bills don’t include tips; you need to add them separately. Leave $1–2 per day for hotel housekeeping. 4️⃣ Transportation: use the subway for short trips. For longer distances, use ride-hailing apps—they cost half as much as hailing taxis on the street. Avoid driving if unfamiliar with the area; parking is very expensive. 5️⃣ Accommodation tips: if on a budget, stay in New Jersey or Long Island suburbs with subway access to Manhattan. You can save half on housing costs but expect longer commutes. Avoid remote neighborhoods. 💰 5-day per person budget reference (excluding international flights) · Comfortable trip: 6,500–10,000 yuan (city hotels + classic attractions + several full meals) · Budget trip: 4,000–5,500 yuan (suburban lodging, public transport, affordable meals) ✨ Final honest words New York is a city of extremes, where top-tier luxury and gritty street life coexist. It’s worth visiting once to see a world-class city firsthand. But if you prefer clean, tidy, stress-free vacations and dislike high tipping and crowded environments, New York probably won’t match your travel style. Adjust your expectations before you go.

#mytripvlog Historic Holy Trinity Episcopal Church was formed in the living room of the founder of the City of Covina, J.S. Phillips, on Trinity Sunday in 1887. It turned 135 years old this year, designed by artchtector Fr. Alfred Fletcher. Steeped in liturgical traditions, it also embraces progressive values. The blue and red cart in the front of the church is a full-size replica of the one that hauled big stones from the riverbed to build the church in 1910. Address: 100 N 3rd Ave, Covina, CA 91723

Canada 🍁 is great, but I won't go again because it's too grueling ✨ I just returned from an in-depth trip to Canada! Honestly, I'm speaking from the heart 😭 The mountains and rivers here are truly breathtaking; the Rockies, lakes, and Maple Road are all picture-perfect! But the travel experience was truly exhausting, time-consuming, expensive, and incredibly troublesome. It's beautiful but not fun, once is enough! ✈️ Transportation tips 💨 The biggest challenge for traveling in Canada: vast land and sparse population, making travel extremely difficult! International direct flights take a very long time, long-haul flights are super tiring, and jet lag is unbearable 😩 Inter-city distances are extremely far! Vancouver, Toronto, and Banff are thousands of kilometers apart. Inter-city flight tickets are expensive, and travel time is spent enduring the journey. Zero public transportation freedom for city travel ❌ Bus services are extremely infrequent, with waits starting at over ten minutes. Remote scenic spots are mostly inaccessible by direct public transport. ✅ The only solution: you must drive! However, mountain roads have many curves, mountainous areas often have no signal, gas stations are sparse, and roads are dark and deserted after nightfall, which is a direct deterrent for new drivers! Without a car, you can't move an inch; driving keeps you tense the whole time, directly halving your travel happiness! 🏞️ Real experience of attractions 🌿 Objectively speaking! Canada's natural scenery is truly irreplaceable 🍃 The lakes in Banff National Park are crystal clear and blue, with snow-capped mountains reflecting on the surface, creating an ethereal scene; Maple Road is full of autumn vibes; Niagara Falls is magnificent and stunning, curing all visual fatigue. Few crowds, pristine scenery, perfect ecological environment. Every photo is a blockbuster without filters, and the air quality is excellent. But there are too many downsides to count! Prices are ridiculously high 💸. Food, accommodation, and parking are all overpriced, and niche attractions have many hidden fees. Mosquitoes are rampant in forest areas during summer, biting through clothes, making outdoor hiking a terrible experience; the weather is unpredictable, with sudden showers and strong winds at any time. Distances between attractions are too far, with most of the day spent traveling, losing the relaxed feeling of a trip due to a "special forces" style rush. Very low commercialization also means poor facilities, few supplies, and few rest areas, making the entire trip feel like making do. 🍁 Authentic Canadian cuisine 🤤 The online rumors about a food desert are true! The overall taste is rather bland, heavy on oil and salt, suitable for a taste but not for eating much 😮‍💨 🦞 Canadian lobster: firm, sweet, and fresh meat, a must-eat main dish, with decent value for money. 🍖 Maple bacon: a local specialty, a unique sweet and savory taste, worth trying. 🥩 AAA-grade steak: firm and tender meat, rich aroma from charcoal grilling. 🥣 Poutine: fries with cheese curds and gravy, calorie-dense, easily gets greasy if you eat too much. 💡 Real experience: very few local food options! After exploring streets and alleys, I ended up relying on Chinese and Korean food to survive. It's really hard to eat like this for a long trip! 💡 Heartfelt travel tips 📝 1. You must drive the entire trip! Practice mountain roads in advance, download full offline maps, as no signal in mountainous areas is common. 2. Fill up the gas tank immediately when it's half full! Gas stations are extremely far apart on rural roads, don't gamble on remaining fuel. 3. For summer travel, prepare strong mosquito repellent, long-sleeved shirts and pants. Mosquitoes in forest areas are highly toxic and dense. 4. The temperature difference between day and night is huge, always carry a jacket. Bring an umbrella for unpredictable weather. 5. Book accommodation and parking in advance. Housing near scenic spots is tight, and parking fees are expensive. 6. When hiking in the wilderness, don't take unofficial paths. Follow park rules and pay attention to outdoor safety. Undeniably, Canada boasts world-class beautiful mountains and rivers 🍁 Pristine lakes, majestic snow-capped mountains, and endless maple leaves are both healing and stunning. But the extremely high costs, long travel times, inadequate facilities, and monotonous food are truly energy-draining! It's suitable for experienced travelers who seek extreme scenery, have ample budget, and are good at driving. For average tourists, a second visit is not recommended. Seeing the stunning scenery once is already fulfilling and leaves no regrets!

📍Universal Studios Hollywood 🗺️No backtracking route 💡 Map is in the last picture: ⚠️ There are many escalators between the lower and upper parks. Elevators are far apart and require a shuttle, so it’s recommended to travel light. One person can carry the child while the other handles the stroller on the escalator. 【Lower Park】(Recommended to visit first thing in the morning) 1. 🌟 Super Nintendo World: Mario Kart 🏎️ and live-action Mario. You can buy an interactive wristband. The Mario restaurant requires an app reservation in advance, but there is actually a side entrance where you can enter and order directly. 2. 🦕 Jurassic World: The Ride, very likely to get soaked in the front row, remember to bring a raincoat. 3. ⚰️ The Mummy: Not suitable for small children. 4. 🤖 Transformers: Great 5D effects, but strong visual impact that might scare little kids. 【Upper Park】(Leisurely visit in the afternoon) 5. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 The Simpsons: Various mini-games. 6. 🌟 Studio Tour: Take a bus 🚌 to see movie sets. Recommended to sit on the right window side for the best view! 7. 🪄 Harry Potter: The roller coaster and Forbidden Journey are thrilling, not suitable for young children, but there is child swap so parents can take turns riding. Must try the “Butterbeer,” which, despite the name, is a non-alcoholic sweet sparkling drink safe for kids. 8. 🐼 Kung Fu Panda: A short special effects movie with non-shaking seats available for parents holding children. 9&10.🐶 Minions / Secret Life of Pets: Cute style, kid-friendly. 11.🌊 WaterWorld Show: Stunning stunts. Seats are color-coded: blue for soaking wet, green for half wet, choose gray safe zone if with kids. 🚗 🅿️ Two tips to get $5 parking (save dozens of dollars) Method 1️⃣: Buy a same-day movie ticket at the CityWalk AMC theater via the AMC App ➡️ Tell the parking attendant you’re there for the movie, and parking fee instantly becomes $5 ➡️ Before the movie starts, cancel the ticket online in the app (with a $2-$3 handling fee). Total cost is under $8 for official parking. 👀 If there’s an issue with the ticket system, you must pay parking first, then buy a ticket on-site to get a parking rebate, and then cancel the movie ticket. Method 2️⃣: Navigate to 3913 Lankershim Blvd parking lot, $3 per day. Park and walk over the skybridge to take the free shuttle bus into the park. But theoretically, this is a subway station 🚉 parking lot, so there might be a risk of towing. Next time, I’ll share a detailed guide on the live-action Mario in Super Nintendo World.

Along the way, visit local farms to take photos; some offer apple picking and pumpkin patches, which are great for families. The drive takes about 2 hours, with frequent stops at scenic overlooks.

. Hello, this is Ziwen, always on the road traveling~ . It turns out you don’t have to go far to Africa to feel like you’re at the end of the world; this island gave me that feeling… . The house is built on the cliff’s curve closest to the sea, like the last comma the continent wrote to the ocean. Open the door to see the sea, and the 180-degree floor-to-ceiling windows bring the glassy sea into every turn inside the room. . In the afternoon, walking through the cliff garden and sitting by the edge watching the sea, I suddenly understood what “the ends of the earth” means—not a geographical distance, but a quiet place where your heart can drift away without rushing back. . Before sunset, dive into the heated infinity pool. The water temperature is just like a warm embrace, your body suspended at the boundary between land and sea. Watch the sunset slowly spread over the horizon, the sky turning from fiery orange to deep purple, and the wind carries an indescribable tenderness from afar. . It turns out the Cape of Good Hope isn’t on any map. It’s in the moment when the sea laps at your toes, in the second the cliff catches the setting sun. . [Half-day Island Tour Guide] · Dishui Danping Right below the hotel, the volcanic rock cliff drips water year-round, and at sunset the whole sea turns into flowing molten gold. Recommended to wear a light-colored long dress; the backlit silhouette is poetic. . · Nanwan Catholic Church A century-old building made of coral stone, with stained glass patterns blooming like flowers on the ground in the afternoon. Few people early Monday to Friday mornings. . · Muya Cliff (informal spot, be cautious) A wild cliff known only to locals, at dusk it feels like standing at the world’s end. Wear non-slip shoes and go with companions. . · Shiluokou Beach The clearest part of the glassy sea, where you can see the shadows of underwater coral under the afternoon sun. .
