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.”

Autumn in northwest China holds the most exquisite romance in the world. Every year from September to October, the 20-day golden poplar viewing period passes in a flash. This 7-day, 6-night off-the-beaten-path photography route brings together five major landscapes: poplars, desert, Danxia landforms, snow-capped mountains, and grasslands. The trip starts and ends in Lanzhou, with small groups of 3–7 people traveling in style. Comfortable 5-, 7-, or 9-seat vehicles accompany the journey, avoiding crowded buses. The entire trip is purely for sightseeing with no shopping stops, allowing plenty of free time for photography. The route connects four secret poplar forests: poplars reflected in the clear waters by Jinta, with gentle streams and small bridges offering a soothing atmosphere; the soft water and sand of Ruoshui’s Golden Sand Bay showing tender beauty; Ejina poplar forest, the filming location of "Hero," where reflections at Erdao Bridge and the heroic forest at Sidao Bridge create perfect photo spots; and the strange forest with gnarled dead trees, revealing a thousand years of history under the sunset and starry sky. More than just poplars, the journey holds many surprises. Head to the Badain Jaran Desert to witness the rare sight of sand dunes coexisting with blue lakes. Experience sandboarding and camel riding to fully immerse yourself in desert culture. At dawn, visit Juyan Lake to see the sunrise dye the water red, with seagulls flying over the reeds, capturing a watercolor-like sunrise scene. Explore the Pingshan Lake Grand Canyon, where layers of red rock rise dramatically, rivaling the Colorado Canyon. Finish with a visit to Binggou River, where the Qilian snow mountains, primeval forest, and green meadows form a healing landscape painting, fulfilling the dream of mountains, sea, and grasslands. Accommodation is fully upgraded, with the first night at a four-star hotel in Lanzhou and the rest in carefully selected local standard rooms. Free 24-hour airport transfers in Lanzhou are included for double travelers. The trip includes 6 breakfasts, all attraction tickets, and shuttle buses along the route at one price. Core sites like Badain Jaran, Juyan Lake, and the poplar forests require no extra fees. Exclusive desert poplar forest tickets are also included, along with an outdoor headscarf, daily bottled water, and travel accident insurance. The 7-day pace is relaxed and well balanced, with long drives broken up reasonably. No rushing or ticking off check-ins. Chase sunrises in the early morning, watch sunsets at dusk, capture silhouettes of the strange forest under the stars, and stroll through golden forests by day. Both photography enthusiasts and leisure travelers will find their perfect scenery. Multiple group departures are available in September and October 2026, with only slight price adjustments during the National Day holiday. Miss it, and you’ll have to wait another year. Three thousand years of poplars await a season of gold, deserts, canyons, and lakes await your arrival. Take advantage of the perfect autumn light to embark on this northwest feast of fall colors, collecting the desert’s golden glow and the Gobi’s starry sky.

The blend of rain and fall colors at Multnomah Falls creates a surreal, almost dreamlike feeling. #waterfalls #pacificnorthwest #pnw #beautifuldestinations #waterfalllovers #nature #pnwphotography #pnwexplored

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing. This hidden gem away from the crowds offers perfect shots for your social feed.

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!

Chimney Rock State Park gave me one of my favorite combinations of mountains and fall foliage. The rocky cliffs immediately caught my attention, but the colorful forests around them were just as impressive. From the viewpoints, I could see autumn colors spreading across the surrounding landscape, creating a beautiful contrast with the stone formations. The trails and viewpoints made it easy to find different perspectives throughout the visit. I would definitely recommend visiting in the fall if you enjoy photography because the scenery offers plenty of dramatic compositions. #fallcolors #fallcolors

Beside the bustling coastline of Kuwait City stands a palace of light and shadow floating above the blue Persian Gulf—the Kuwait Hyatt Hotel. It is not just a place to stay but a living work of art, weaving the vast poetic desert and the profound dreams of the ocean into every inch of its space. 🏙️ Environment and Stunning Views The hotel is like a crystal embedded in the city skyline, towering on the Golden Coast of the Al Bahar district. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a never-repeating three-dimensional painting: by day, the azure bay sways with yachts and sails, and the distant city silhouette sparkles under the blazing sun; at nightfall, the window reveals a galaxy of countless lights and shimmering bay waves, with the Kuwait Towers standing quietly like diamond lighthouses guarding the city’s romance. The sound of the tide is an eternal accompaniment, and when sipping on the terrace, it feels as if you can touch the wind from the bay, carrying salt grains and freedom. 🏛️ Unique Design Aesthetics The architecture itself is a visual epic. Crafted by a renowned architect, its smooth curved exterior resembles a frozen moment of a wave or a modern fortress rising from the desert. Entering the lobby with its soaring height of several tens of meters, light and shadow take center stage—the giant glass curtain wall pours in daylight, intertwining with over a thousand custom crystal lamps on the dome, creating different spectrums between day and night. The interior is inspired by the "dialogue between ocean and desert," featuring mother-of-pearl inlaid walls, sand-colored marble floors, wave-patterned metal screens, and even the scent of ebony and agarwood in the air, quietly telling the dual soul of this land. 🛌 Guest Rooms: A Cloud-Top Retreat The guest rooms are sanctuaries suspended between sea and sky. Beneath minimalist lines lies ultimate luxury: Egyptian cotton bedding cradles dreams like clouds, and a smart control system adjusts the space to the most comfortable setting with one touch. The most captivating feature is the floor-to-ceiling window that runs through the room—whether soaking in the bathtub by the window watching the sunset sink below the horizon or curled up on the sofa witnessing the city lights turn on one by one, it feels like owning a vast, eternally flowing painting. The bathroom walls are inlaid with glass tiles crafted by local artists, mimicking wave patterns that shimmer softly under the light. 🍽️ Dining: A Culinary Journey Along the Silk Road The hotel’s four restaurants and lounges offer a taste pilgrimage across cultures. · Olea: The Mediterranean restaurant is like a sky garden, with olive tree shadows swaying. The signature seafood tower is filled with the day’s freshest catch, and the olive oil drips evoke a rare verdant poetry in Kuwait. · Bazaar: An immersive market restaurant filled with the aroma of Middle Eastern spices. Freshly baked Arabic bread and slow-cooked lamb are reinterpreted over open kitchen flames, reviving ancient recipes. · The Lounge: Afternoon tea time features silverware holding saffron desserts and date mousse, with the bay outside as an endless landscape painting. · Sky Lounge: At night, neon flows beneath your feet, the signature cocktail "Desert Rose" blooms in the glass, and jazz music flows like water over the starlit terrace. Here, time softens. You can stroll along the coastal promenade, watching white sails glide across the golden sunset; or swim in the rooftop infinity pool, your body immersed in water while your gaze dances with the skyline and seabirds. The Kuwait Hyatt Hotel offers not just a night’s rest but a sensory awakening—letting the bay’s wind pass through your hair, the city’s light reflect in your eyes, and the passion and tranquility of this ancient land deeply etched into the folds of every traveler’s memory.

#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

If you ask me what the must-see attraction in Muscat is, I would without hesitation recommend the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque. Its impact is not just about being "big" or "beautiful," but the solemnity, purity, and breathtaking power when the first morning light falls on the white marble. 🌅 01|Morning Encounter: The First Stunning Sight of the Grand Mosque The moment you step into the mosque’s outer courtyard, all drowsiness instantly disappears. The Grand Mosque is the largest mosque in Oman and the fifth largest in the world. The morning light slants over the smooth arches, intricately carved stone pillars, and spacious courtyard, bathing the entire building in a soft golden glow, so peaceful you dare not speak loudly. Standing at the entrance for those few seconds, you will understand the true meaning of "magnificent." 🧕 02|Must-Know Before Entering: The Strictest Dress Code The dress code here is definitely one of the strictest in Oman: Men and women must wear "long sleeves + long pants/long skirts." Short sleeves + scarf covering arms = not compliant (officially not accepted). If you dress incorrectly, you can rent an abaya/robe outside the entrance and be ready in minutes. Tip: 📌 For better photos, it’s recommended to wear dark or earth-toned long skirts, which harmonize well with the marble background. ✨ 03|Main Prayer Hall: Look Up for Awe Entering the main prayer hall is one of the most "wow" moments of this Muscat trip. ✧ Giant Crystal Chandelier The mosque’s treasure, custom-made in Germany, embedded with thousands of Swarovski crystals. When lit, the entire hall looks like it’s gently illuminated by the Milky Way. ✧ 40-Meter Diameter Huge Dome One of the largest domes in the Middle East. The geometric patterns inside the dome are orderly and intricate, like a three-dimensional Islamic art scroll. ✧ Carved Walls and Carpet Details Whether you look up or down, every inch is worth stopping to admire. 🌤️ 04|Don’t Miss the Outer Corridor: Charming Light and Reflections Many visitors leave quickly after seeing the main prayer hall, but what truly excites photographers is the outer corridor and courtyard. The carved window lattices filter sunlight, casting patterns on the ground and walls, perfect for capturing delicate shadow patterns; And don’t miss the clean, flat courtyard floor reflections—I crouched in a secluded corner for half an hour to capture the mosque’s reflection because the ground was so clean the entire mosque was perfectly mirrored. That shot is rare and unforgettable in my memory. 📍 05|Visiting Hours and Tips To make your experience perfect, remember these: ⏰ Opening Hours Closed on Fridays Open 8:00–11:00 on other days (morning only) 📌 Best to enter between 8:00–9:00 for the softest light and fewest people. 💰 Admission Free 📸 Photo Tips Shoot arches and corridors against the light for the most beautiful shadows Courtyard floor reflections are great for reflection shots (shooting from a low angle enhances the mirror effect) Avoid noon when the light is too harsh 🕌 06|The Grand Mosque, the Soul of Muscat It is not only Oman’s most magnificent mosque but also the place where Muscat’s spirit is most concentrated. Here, you can see the pinnacle of Arabic architecture, the most healing morning light and shadows, and feel a calm and profound sense unique to Muscat. If you come to Oman and can only visit one landmark— It must be the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque.

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.

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.”

Photography Tips: Use a wide-angle lens for panoramic canyon shots and a telephoto lens to compress rock layers; wear bright red, orange, or yellow clothing to contrast with the earth-yellow and orange-red rock walls for striking photos. 2.

Autumn in northwest China holds the most exquisite romance in the world. Every year from September to October, the 20-day golden poplar viewing period passes in a flash. This 7-day, 6-night off-the-beaten-path photography route brings together five major landscapes: poplars, desert, Danxia landforms, snow-capped mountains, and grasslands. The trip starts and ends in Lanzhou, with small groups of 3–7 people traveling in style. Comfortable 5-, 7-, or 9-seat vehicles accompany the journey, avoiding crowded buses. The entire trip is purely for sightseeing with no shopping stops, allowing plenty of free time for photography. The route connects four secret poplar forests: poplars reflected in the clear waters by Jinta, with gentle streams and small bridges offering a soothing atmosphere; the soft water and sand of Ruoshui’s Golden Sand Bay showing tender beauty; Ejina poplar forest, the filming location of "Hero," where reflections at Erdao Bridge and the heroic forest at Sidao Bridge create perfect photo spots; and the strange forest with gnarled dead trees, revealing a thousand years of history under the sunset and starry sky. More than just poplars, the journey holds many surprises. Head to the Badain Jaran Desert to witness the rare sight of sand dunes coexisting with blue lakes. Experience sandboarding and camel riding to fully immerse yourself in desert culture. At dawn, visit Juyan Lake to see the sunrise dye the water red, with seagulls flying over the reeds, capturing a watercolor-like sunrise scene. Explore the Pingshan Lake Grand Canyon, where layers of red rock rise dramatically, rivaling the Colorado Canyon. Finish with a visit to Binggou River, where the Qilian snow mountains, primeval forest, and green meadows form a healing landscape painting, fulfilling the dream of mountains, sea, and grasslands. Accommodation is fully upgraded, with the first night at a four-star hotel in Lanzhou and the rest in carefully selected local standard rooms. Free 24-hour airport transfers in Lanzhou are included for double travelers. The trip includes 6 breakfasts, all attraction tickets, and shuttle buses along the route at one price. Core sites like Badain Jaran, Juyan Lake, and the poplar forests require no extra fees. Exclusive desert poplar forest tickets are also included, along with an outdoor headscarf, daily bottled water, and travel accident insurance. The 7-day pace is relaxed and well balanced, with long drives broken up reasonably. No rushing or ticking off check-ins. Chase sunrises in the early morning, watch sunsets at dusk, capture silhouettes of the strange forest under the stars, and stroll through golden forests by day. Both photography enthusiasts and leisure travelers will find their perfect scenery. Multiple group departures are available in September and October 2026, with only slight price adjustments during the National Day holiday. Miss it, and you’ll have to wait another year. Three thousand years of poplars await a season of gold, deserts, canyons, and lakes await your arrival. Take advantage of the perfect autumn light to embark on this northwest feast of fall colors, collecting the desert’s golden glow and the Gobi’s starry sky.

The blend of rain and fall colors at Multnomah Falls creates a surreal, almost dreamlike feeling. #waterfalls #pacificnorthwest #pnw #beautifuldestinations #waterfalllovers #nature #pnwphotography #pnwexplored

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing. This hidden gem away from the crowds offers perfect shots for your social feed.

#mytripvlog When people take a road trip, traveling between Los Angeles and Las Vegas along Interstate 15, the colorful installation art will catch travelers' eyes when passing through desert landscapes. About 10 miles south of Las Vegas, the Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone decided on the location to present his large-scale public art to brighten the Mojave desert day and night.

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!

Chimney Rock State Park gave me one of my favorite combinations of mountains and fall foliage. The rocky cliffs immediately caught my attention, but the colorful forests around them were just as impressive. From the viewpoints, I could see autumn colors spreading across the surrounding landscape, creating a beautiful contrast with the stone formations. The trails and viewpoints made it easy to find different perspectives throughout the visit. I would definitely recommend visiting in the fall if you enjoy photography because the scenery offers plenty of dramatic compositions. #fallcolors #fallcolors

Beside the bustling coastline of Kuwait City stands a palace of light and shadow floating above the blue Persian Gulf—the Kuwait Hyatt Hotel. It is not just a place to stay but a living work of art, weaving the vast poetic desert and the profound dreams of the ocean into every inch of its space. 🏙️ Environment and Stunning Views The hotel is like a crystal embedded in the city skyline, towering on the Golden Coast of the Al Bahar district. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a never-repeating three-dimensional painting: by day, the azure bay sways with yachts and sails, and the distant city silhouette sparkles under the blazing sun; at nightfall, the window reveals a galaxy of countless lights and shimmering bay waves, with the Kuwait Towers standing quietly like diamond lighthouses guarding the city’s romance. The sound of the tide is an eternal accompaniment, and when sipping on the terrace, it feels as if you can touch the wind from the bay, carrying salt grains and freedom. 🏛️ Unique Design Aesthetics The architecture itself is a visual epic. Crafted by a renowned architect, its smooth curved exterior resembles a frozen moment of a wave or a modern fortress rising from the desert. Entering the lobby with its soaring height of several tens of meters, light and shadow take center stage—the giant glass curtain wall pours in daylight, intertwining with over a thousand custom crystal lamps on the dome, creating different spectrums between day and night. The interior is inspired by the "dialogue between ocean and desert," featuring mother-of-pearl inlaid walls, sand-colored marble floors, wave-patterned metal screens, and even the scent of ebony and agarwood in the air, quietly telling the dual soul of this land. 🛌 Guest Rooms: A Cloud-Top Retreat The guest rooms are sanctuaries suspended between sea and sky. Beneath minimalist lines lies ultimate luxury: Egyptian cotton bedding cradles dreams like clouds, and a smart control system adjusts the space to the most comfortable setting with one touch. The most captivating feature is the floor-to-ceiling window that runs through the room—whether soaking in the bathtub by the window watching the sunset sink below the horizon or curled up on the sofa witnessing the city lights turn on one by one, it feels like owning a vast, eternally flowing painting. The bathroom walls are inlaid with glass tiles crafted by local artists, mimicking wave patterns that shimmer softly under the light. 🍽️ Dining: A Culinary Journey Along the Silk Road The hotel’s four restaurants and lounges offer a taste pilgrimage across cultures. · Olea: The Mediterranean restaurant is like a sky garden, with olive tree shadows swaying. The signature seafood tower is filled with the day’s freshest catch, and the olive oil drips evoke a rare verdant poetry in Kuwait. · Bazaar: An immersive market restaurant filled with the aroma of Middle Eastern spices. Freshly baked Arabic bread and slow-cooked lamb are reinterpreted over open kitchen flames, reviving ancient recipes. · The Lounge: Afternoon tea time features silverware holding saffron desserts and date mousse, with the bay outside as an endless landscape painting. · Sky Lounge: At night, neon flows beneath your feet, the signature cocktail "Desert Rose" blooms in the glass, and jazz music flows like water over the starlit terrace. Here, time softens. You can stroll along the coastal promenade, watching white sails glide across the golden sunset; or swim in the rooftop infinity pool, your body immersed in water while your gaze dances with the skyline and seabirds. The Kuwait Hyatt Hotel offers not just a night’s rest but a sensory awakening—letting the bay’s wind pass through your hair, the city’s light reflect in your eyes, and the passion and tranquility of this ancient land deeply etched into the folds of every traveler’s memory.

#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

If you ask me what the must-see attraction in Muscat is, I would without hesitation recommend the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque. Its impact is not just about being "big" or "beautiful," but the solemnity, purity, and breathtaking power when the first morning light falls on the white marble. 🌅 01|Morning Encounter: The First Stunning Sight of the Grand Mosque The moment you step into the mosque’s outer courtyard, all drowsiness instantly disappears. The Grand Mosque is the largest mosque in Oman and the fifth largest in the world. The morning light slants over the smooth arches, intricately carved stone pillars, and spacious courtyard, bathing the entire building in a soft golden glow, so peaceful you dare not speak loudly. Standing at the entrance for those few seconds, you will understand the true meaning of "magnificent." 🧕 02|Must-Know Before Entering: The Strictest Dress Code The dress code here is definitely one of the strictest in Oman: Men and women must wear "long sleeves + long pants/long skirts." Short sleeves + scarf covering arms = not compliant (officially not accepted). If you dress incorrectly, you can rent an abaya/robe outside the entrance and be ready in minutes. Tip: 📌 For better photos, it’s recommended to wear dark or earth-toned long skirts, which harmonize well with the marble background. ✨ 03|Main Prayer Hall: Look Up for Awe Entering the main prayer hall is one of the most "wow" moments of this Muscat trip. ✧ Giant Crystal Chandelier The mosque’s treasure, custom-made in Germany, embedded with thousands of Swarovski crystals. When lit, the entire hall looks like it’s gently illuminated by the Milky Way. ✧ 40-Meter Diameter Huge Dome One of the largest domes in the Middle East. The geometric patterns inside the dome are orderly and intricate, like a three-dimensional Islamic art scroll. ✧ Carved Walls and Carpet Details Whether you look up or down, every inch is worth stopping to admire. 🌤️ 04|Don’t Miss the Outer Corridor: Charming Light and Reflections Many visitors leave quickly after seeing the main prayer hall, but what truly excites photographers is the outer corridor and courtyard. The carved window lattices filter sunlight, casting patterns on the ground and walls, perfect for capturing delicate shadow patterns; And don’t miss the clean, flat courtyard floor reflections—I crouched in a secluded corner for half an hour to capture the mosque’s reflection because the ground was so clean the entire mosque was perfectly mirrored. That shot is rare and unforgettable in my memory. 📍 05|Visiting Hours and Tips To make your experience perfect, remember these: ⏰ Opening Hours Closed on Fridays Open 8:00–11:00 on other days (morning only) 📌 Best to enter between 8:00–9:00 for the softest light and fewest people. 💰 Admission Free 📸 Photo Tips Shoot arches and corridors against the light for the most beautiful shadows Courtyard floor reflections are great for reflection shots (shooting from a low angle enhances the mirror effect) Avoid noon when the light is too harsh 🕌 06|The Grand Mosque, the Soul of Muscat It is not only Oman’s most magnificent mosque but also the place where Muscat’s spirit is most concentrated. Here, you can see the pinnacle of Arabic architecture, the most healing morning light and shadows, and feel a calm and profound sense unique to Muscat. If you come to Oman and can only visit one landmark— It must be the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque.

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.

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.”

Autumn in northwest China holds the most exquisite romance in the world. Every year from September to October, the 20-day golden poplar viewing period passes in a flash. This 7-day, 6-night off-the-beaten-path photography route brings together five major landscapes: poplars, desert, Danxia landforms, snow-capped mountains, and grasslands. The trip starts and ends in Lanzhou, with small groups of 3–7 people traveling in style. Comfortable 5-, 7-, or 9-seat vehicles accompany the journey, avoiding crowded buses. The entire trip is purely for sightseeing with no shopping stops, allowing plenty of free time for photography. The route connects four secret poplar forests: poplars reflected in the clear waters by Jinta, with gentle streams and small bridges offering a soothing atmosphere; the soft water and sand of Ruoshui’s Golden Sand Bay showing tender beauty; Ejina poplar forest, the filming location of "Hero," where reflections at Erdao Bridge and the heroic forest at Sidao Bridge create perfect photo spots; and the strange forest with gnarled dead trees, revealing a thousand years of history under the sunset and starry sky. More than just poplars, the journey holds many surprises. Head to the Badain Jaran Desert to witness the rare sight of sand dunes coexisting with blue lakes. Experience sandboarding and camel riding to fully immerse yourself in desert culture. At dawn, visit Juyan Lake to see the sunrise dye the water red, with seagulls flying over the reeds, capturing a watercolor-like sunrise scene. Explore the Pingshan Lake Grand Canyon, where layers of red rock rise dramatically, rivaling the Colorado Canyon. Finish with a visit to Binggou River, where the Qilian snow mountains, primeval forest, and green meadows form a healing landscape painting, fulfilling the dream of mountains, sea, and grasslands. Accommodation is fully upgraded, with the first night at a four-star hotel in Lanzhou and the rest in carefully selected local standard rooms. Free 24-hour airport transfers in Lanzhou are included for double travelers. The trip includes 6 breakfasts, all attraction tickets, and shuttle buses along the route at one price. Core sites like Badain Jaran, Juyan Lake, and the poplar forests require no extra fees. Exclusive desert poplar forest tickets are also included, along with an outdoor headscarf, daily bottled water, and travel accident insurance. The 7-day pace is relaxed and well balanced, with long drives broken up reasonably. No rushing or ticking off check-ins. Chase sunrises in the early morning, watch sunsets at dusk, capture silhouettes of the strange forest under the stars, and stroll through golden forests by day. Both photography enthusiasts and leisure travelers will find their perfect scenery. Multiple group departures are available in September and October 2026, with only slight price adjustments during the National Day holiday. Miss it, and you’ll have to wait another year. Three thousand years of poplars await a season of gold, deserts, canyons, and lakes await your arrival. Take advantage of the perfect autumn light to embark on this northwest feast of fall colors, collecting the desert’s golden glow and the Gobi’s starry sky.

The blend of rain and fall colors at Multnomah Falls creates a surreal, almost dreamlike feeling. #waterfalls #pacificnorthwest #pnw #beautifuldestinations #waterfalllovers #nature #pnwphotography #pnwexplored

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing. This hidden gem away from the crowds offers perfect shots for your social feed.

#mytripvlog When people take a road trip, traveling between Los Angeles and Las Vegas along Interstate 15, the colorful installation art will catch travelers' eyes when passing through desert landscapes.

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!

Chimney Rock State Park gave me one of my favorite combinations of mountains and fall foliage. The rocky cliffs immediately caught my attention, but the colorful forests around them were just as impressive. From the viewpoints, I could see autumn colors spreading across the surrounding landscape, creating a beautiful contrast with the stone formations. The trails and viewpoints made it easy to find different perspectives throughout the visit. I would definitely recommend visiting in the fall if you enjoy photography because the scenery offers plenty of dramatic compositions. #fallcolors #fallcolors

Beside the bustling coastline of Kuwait City stands a palace of light and shadow floating above the blue Persian Gulf—the Kuwait Hyatt Hotel. It is not just a place to stay but a living work of art, weaving the vast poetic desert and the profound dreams of the ocean into every inch of its space. 🏙️ Environment and Stunning Views The hotel is like a crystal embedded in the city skyline, towering on the Golden Coast of the Al Bahar district. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a never-repeating three-dimensional painting: by day, the azure bay sways with yachts and sails, and the distant city silhouette sparkles under the blazing sun; at nightfall, the window reveals a galaxy of countless lights and shimmering bay waves, with the Kuwait Towers standing quietly like diamond lighthouses guarding the city’s romance. The sound of the tide is an eternal accompaniment, and when sipping on the terrace, it feels as if you can touch the wind from the bay, carrying salt grains and freedom. 🏛️ Unique Design Aesthetics The architecture itself is a visual epic. Crafted by a renowned architect, its smooth curved exterior resembles a frozen moment of a wave or a modern fortress rising from the desert. Entering the lobby with its soaring height of several tens of meters, light and shadow take center stage—the giant glass curtain wall pours in daylight, intertwining with over a thousand custom crystal lamps on the dome, creating different spectrums between day and night. The interior is inspired by the "dialogue between ocean and desert," featuring mother-of-pearl inlaid walls, sand-colored marble floors, wave-patterned metal screens, and even the scent of ebony and agarwood in the air, quietly telling the dual soul of this land. 🛌 Guest Rooms: A Cloud-Top Retreat The guest rooms are sanctuaries suspended between sea and sky. Beneath minimalist lines lies ultimate luxury: Egyptian cotton bedding cradles dreams like clouds, and a smart control system adjusts the space to the most comfortable setting with one touch. The most captivating feature is the floor-to-ceiling window that runs through the room—whether soaking in the bathtub by the window watching the sunset sink below the horizon or curled up on the sofa witnessing the city lights turn on one by one, it feels like owning a vast, eternally flowing painting. The bathroom walls are inlaid with glass tiles crafted by local artists, mimicking wave patterns that shimmer softly under the light. 🍽️ Dining: A Culinary Journey Along the Silk Road The hotel’s four restaurants and lounges offer a taste pilgrimage across cultures. · Olea: The Mediterranean restaurant is like a sky garden, with olive tree shadows swaying. The signature seafood tower is filled with the day’s freshest catch, and the olive oil drips evoke a rare verdant poetry in Kuwait. · Bazaar: An immersive market restaurant filled with the aroma of Middle Eastern spices. Freshly baked Arabic bread and slow-cooked lamb are reinterpreted over open kitchen flames, reviving ancient recipes. · The Lounge: Afternoon tea time features silverware holding saffron desserts and date mousse, with the bay outside as an endless landscape painting. · Sky Lounge: At night, neon flows beneath your feet, the signature cocktail "Desert Rose" blooms in the glass, and jazz music flows like water over the starlit terrace. Here, time softens. You can stroll along the coastal promenade, watching white sails glide across the golden sunset; or swim in the rooftop infinity pool, your body immersed in water while your gaze dances with the skyline and seabirds. The Kuwait Hyatt Hotel offers not just a night’s rest but a sensory awakening—letting the bay’s wind pass through your hair, the city’s light reflect in your eyes, and the passion and tranquility of this ancient land deeply etched into the folds of every traveler’s memory.

#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

If you ask me what the must-see attraction in Muscat is, I would without hesitation recommend the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque. Its impact is not just about being "big" or "beautiful," but the solemnity, purity, and breathtaking power when the first morning light falls on the white marble. 🌅 01|Morning Encounter: The First Stunning Sight of the Grand Mosque The moment you step into the mosque’s outer courtyard, all drowsiness instantly disappears. The Grand Mosque is the largest mosque in Oman and the fifth largest in the world. The morning light slants over the smooth arches, intricately carved stone pillars, and spacious courtyard, bathing the entire building in a soft golden glow, so peaceful you dare not speak loudly. Standing at the entrance for those few seconds, you will understand the true meaning of "magnificent." 🧕 02|Must-Know Before Entering: The Strictest Dress Code The dress code here is definitely one of the strictest in Oman: Men and women must wear "long sleeves + long pants/long skirts." Short sleeves + scarf covering arms = not compliant (officially not accepted). If you dress incorrectly, you can rent an abaya/robe outside the entrance and be ready in minutes. Tip: 📌 For better photos, it’s recommended to wear dark or earth-toned long skirts, which harmonize well with the marble background. ✨ 03|Main Prayer Hall: Look Up for Awe Entering the main prayer hall is one of the most "wow" moments of this Muscat trip. ✧ Giant Crystal Chandelier The mosque’s treasure, custom-made in Germany, embedded with thousands of Swarovski crystals. When lit, the entire hall looks like it’s gently illuminated by the Milky Way. ✧ 40-Meter Diameter Huge Dome One of the largest domes in the Middle East. The geometric patterns inside the dome are orderly and intricate, like a three-dimensional Islamic art scroll. ✧ Carved Walls and Carpet Details Whether you look up or down, every inch is worth stopping to admire. 🌤️ 04|Don’t Miss the Outer Corridor: Charming Light and Reflections Many visitors leave quickly after seeing the main prayer hall, but what truly excites photographers is the outer corridor and courtyard. The carved window lattices filter sunlight, casting patterns on the ground and walls, perfect for capturing delicate shadow patterns; And don’t miss the clean, flat courtyard floor reflections—I crouched in a secluded corner for half an hour to capture the mosque’s reflection because the ground was so clean the entire mosque was perfectly mirrored. That shot is rare and unforgettable in my memory. 📍 05|Visiting Hours and Tips To make your experience perfect, remember these: ⏰ Opening Hours Closed on Fridays Open 8:00–11:00 on other days (morning only) 📌 Best to enter between 8:00–9:00 for the softest light and fewest people. 💰 Admission Free 📸 Photo Tips Shoot arches and corridors against the light for the most beautiful shadows Courtyard floor reflections are great for reflection shots (shooting from a low angle enhances the mirror effect) Avoid noon when the light is too harsh 🕌 06|The Grand Mosque, the Soul of Muscat It is not only Oman’s most magnificent mosque but also the place where Muscat’s spirit is most concentrated. Here, you can see the pinnacle of Arabic architecture, the most healing morning light and shadows, and feel a calm and profound sense unique to Muscat. If you come to Oman and can only visit one landmark— It must be the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque.

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.

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.”

Autumn in northwest China holds the most exquisite romance in the world. Every year from September to October, the 20-day golden poplar viewing period passes in a flash. This 7-day, 6-night off-the-beaten-path photography route brings together five major landscapes: poplars, desert, Danxia landforms, snow-capped mountains, and grasslands. The trip starts and ends in Lanzhou, with small groups of 3–7 people traveling in style. Comfortable 5-, 7-, or 9-seat vehicles accompany the journey, avoiding crowded buses. The entire trip is purely for sightseeing with no shopping stops, allowing plenty of free time for photography. The route connects four secret poplar forests: poplars reflected in the clear waters by Jinta, with gentle streams and small bridges offering a soothing atmosphere; the soft water and sand of Ruoshui’s Golden Sand Bay showing tender beauty; Ejina poplar forest, the filming location of "Hero," where reflections at Erdao Bridge and the heroic forest at Sidao Bridge create perfect photo spots; and the strange forest with gnarled dead trees, revealing a thousand years of history under the sunset and starry sky. More than just poplars, the journey holds many surprises. Head to the Badain Jaran Desert to witness the rare sight of sand dunes coexisting with blue lakes. Experience sandboarding and camel riding to fully immerse yourself in desert culture. At dawn, visit Juyan Lake to see the sunrise dye the water red, with seagulls flying over the reeds, capturing a watercolor-like sunrise scene. Explore the Pingshan Lake Grand Canyon, where layers of red rock rise dramatically, rivaling the Colorado Canyon. Finish with a visit to Binggou River, where the Qilian snow mountains, primeval forest, and green meadows form a healing landscape painting, fulfilling the dream of mountains, sea, and grasslands. Accommodation is fully upgraded, with the first night at a four-star hotel in Lanzhou and the rest in carefully selected local standard rooms. Free 24-hour airport transfers in Lanzhou are included for double travelers. The trip includes 6 breakfasts, all attraction tickets, and shuttle buses along the route at one price. Core sites like Badain Jaran, Juyan Lake, and the poplar forests require no extra fees. Exclusive desert poplar forest tickets are also included, along with an outdoor headscarf, daily bottled water, and travel accident insurance. The 7-day pace is relaxed and well balanced, with long drives broken up reasonably. No rushing or ticking off check-ins. Chase sunrises in the early morning, watch sunsets at dusk, capture silhouettes of the strange forest under the stars, and stroll through golden forests by day. Both photography enthusiasts and leisure travelers will find their perfect scenery. Multiple group departures are available in September and October 2026, with only slight price adjustments during the National Day holiday. Miss it, and you’ll have to wait another year. Three thousand years of poplars await a season of gold, deserts, canyons, and lakes await your arrival. Take advantage of the perfect autumn light to embark on this northwest feast of fall colors, collecting the desert’s golden glow and the Gobi’s starry sky.

The blend of rain and fall colors at Multnomah Falls creates a surreal, almost dreamlike feeling. #waterfalls #pacificnorthwest #pnw #beautifuldestinations #waterfalllovers #nature #pnwphotography #pnwexplored

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing. This hidden gem away from the crowds offers perfect shots for your social feed.

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!

Chimney Rock State Park gave me one of my favorite combinations of mountains and fall foliage. The rocky cliffs immediately caught my attention, but the colorful forests around them were just as impressive. From the viewpoints, I could see autumn colors spreading across the surrounding landscape, creating a beautiful contrast with the stone formations. The trails and viewpoints made it easy to find different perspectives throughout the visit. I would definitely recommend visiting in the fall if you enjoy photography because the scenery offers plenty of dramatic compositions. #fallcolors #fallcolors

Beside the bustling coastline of Kuwait City stands a palace of light and shadow floating above the blue Persian Gulf—the Kuwait Hyatt Hotel. It is not just a place to stay but a living work of art, weaving the vast poetic desert and the profound dreams of the ocean into every inch of its space. 🏙️ Environment and Stunning Views The hotel is like a crystal embedded in the city skyline, towering on the Golden Coast of the Al Bahar district. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a never-repeating three-dimensional painting: by day, the azure bay sways with yachts and sails, and the distant city silhouette sparkles under the blazing sun; at nightfall, the window reveals a galaxy of countless lights and shimmering bay waves, with the Kuwait Towers standing quietly like diamond lighthouses guarding the city’s romance. The sound of the tide is an eternal accompaniment, and when sipping on the terrace, it feels as if you can touch the wind from the bay, carrying salt grains and freedom. 🏛️ Unique Design Aesthetics The architecture itself is a visual epic. Crafted by a renowned architect, its smooth curved exterior resembles a frozen moment of a wave or a modern fortress rising from the desert. Entering the lobby with its soaring height of several tens of meters, light and shadow take center stage—the giant glass curtain wall pours in daylight, intertwining with over a thousand custom crystal lamps on the dome, creating different spectrums between day and night. The interior is inspired by the "dialogue between ocean and desert," featuring mother-of-pearl inlaid walls, sand-colored marble floors, wave-patterned metal screens, and even the scent of ebony and agarwood in the air, quietly telling the dual soul of this land. 🛌 Guest Rooms: A Cloud-Top Retreat The guest rooms are sanctuaries suspended between sea and sky. Beneath minimalist lines lies ultimate luxury: Egyptian cotton bedding cradles dreams like clouds, and a smart control system adjusts the space to the most comfortable setting with one touch. The most captivating feature is the floor-to-ceiling window that runs through the room—whether soaking in the bathtub by the window watching the sunset sink below the horizon or curled up on the sofa witnessing the city lights turn on one by one, it feels like owning a vast, eternally flowing painting. The bathroom walls are inlaid with glass tiles crafted by local artists, mimicking wave patterns that shimmer softly under the light. 🍽️ Dining: A Culinary Journey Along the Silk Road The hotel’s four restaurants and lounges offer a taste pilgrimage across cultures. · Olea: The Mediterranean restaurant is like a sky garden, with olive tree shadows swaying. The signature seafood tower is filled with the day’s freshest catch, and the olive oil drips evoke a rare verdant poetry in Kuwait. · Bazaar: An immersive market restaurant filled with the aroma of Middle Eastern spices. Freshly baked Arabic bread and slow-cooked lamb are reinterpreted over open kitchen flames, reviving ancient recipes. · The Lounge: Afternoon tea time features silverware holding saffron desserts and date mousse, with the bay outside as an endless landscape painting. · Sky Lounge: At night, neon flows beneath your feet, the signature cocktail "Desert Rose" blooms in the glass, and jazz music flows like water over the starlit terrace. Here, time softens. You can stroll along the coastal promenade, watching white sails glide across the golden sunset; or swim in the rooftop infinity pool, your body immersed in water while your gaze dances with the skyline and seabirds. The Kuwait Hyatt Hotel offers not just a night’s rest but a sensory awakening—letting the bay’s wind pass through your hair, the city’s light reflect in your eyes, and the passion and tranquility of this ancient land deeply etched into the folds of every traveler’s memory.

#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

If you ask me what the must-see attraction in Muscat is, I would without hesitation recommend the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque. Its impact is not just about being "big" or "beautiful," but the solemnity, purity, and breathtaking power when the first morning light falls on the white marble. 🌅 01|Morning Encounter: The First Stunning Sight of the Grand Mosque The moment you step into the mosque’s outer courtyard, all drowsiness instantly disappears. The Grand Mosque is the largest mosque in Oman and the fifth largest in the world. The morning light slants over the smooth arches, intricately carved stone pillars, and spacious courtyard, bathing the entire building in a soft golden glow, so peaceful you dare not speak loudly. Standing at the entrance for those few seconds, you will understand the true meaning of "magnificent." 🧕 02|Must-Know Before Entering: The Strictest Dress Code The dress code here is definitely one of the strictest in Oman: Men and women must wear "long sleeves + long pants/long skirts." Short sleeves + scarf covering arms = not compliant (officially not accepted). If you dress incorrectly, you can rent an abaya/robe outside the entrance and be ready in minutes. Tip: 📌 For better photos, it’s recommended to wear dark or earth-toned long skirts, which harmonize well with the marble background. ✨ 03|Main Prayer Hall: Look Up for Awe Entering the main prayer hall is one of the most "wow" moments of this Muscat trip. ✧ Giant Crystal Chandelier The mosque’s treasure, custom-made in Germany, embedded with thousands of Swarovski crystals. When lit, the entire hall looks like it’s gently illuminated by the Milky Way. ✧ 40-Meter Diameter Huge Dome One of the largest domes in the Middle East. The geometric patterns inside the dome are orderly and intricate, like a three-dimensional Islamic art scroll. ✧ Carved Walls and Carpet Details Whether you look up or down, every inch is worth stopping to admire. 🌤️ 04|Don’t Miss the Outer Corridor: Charming Light and Reflections Many visitors leave quickly after seeing the main prayer hall, but what truly excites photographers is the outer corridor and courtyard. The carved window lattices filter sunlight, casting patterns on the ground and walls, perfect for capturing delicate shadow patterns; And don’t miss the clean, flat courtyard floor reflections—I crouched in a secluded corner for half an hour to capture the mosque’s reflection because the ground was so clean the entire mosque was perfectly mirrored. That shot is rare and unforgettable in my memory. 📍 05|Visiting Hours and Tips To make your experience perfect, remember these: ⏰ Opening Hours Closed on Fridays Open 8:00–11:00 on other days (morning only) 📌 Best to enter between 8:00–9:00 for the softest light and fewest people. 💰 Admission Free 📸 Photo Tips Shoot arches and corridors against the light for the most beautiful shadows Courtyard floor reflections are great for reflection shots (shooting from a low angle enhances the mirror effect) Avoid noon when the light is too harsh 🕌 06|The Grand Mosque, the Soul of Muscat It is not only Oman’s most magnificent mosque but also the place where Muscat’s spirit is most concentrated. Here, you can see the pinnacle of Arabic architecture, the most healing morning light and shadows, and feel a calm and profound sense unique to Muscat. If you come to Oman and can only visit one landmark— It must be the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque.

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.

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.”

Departure City: About 3.5 hours drive from Albuquerque 2. Road Conditions: The last 10 miles are gravel and dirt roads, bumpy and full of potholes; a four-wheel drive or high-clearance off-road vehicle is required; regular cars are very likely to scrape the bottom 3. Travel Tips: Gas stations are scarce along the way; fill up the tank before departure; no public transportation available, self-driving only 4. Best Photography Times: 2 hours after sunrise and 1.5 hours before sunset for the most saturated rock colors; at night, you can shoot the desert Milky Way starry sky 🗺️ Three Core Routes 1. Badlands Overlook | 360° Danxia Panorama The highest point in the area, surrounded by colorful rock pillars in a ring. In the early morning, mist covers the iconic mushroom rocks, creating a full atmospheric vibe. Photography Tips: Use a wide-angle lens for panoramic canyon shots and a telephoto lens to compress rock layers; wear bright red, orange, or yellow clothing to contrast with the earth-yellow and orange-red rock walls for striking photos. 2. Fossil Valley Trail | Jurassic Archaeological Site The trail surface is scattered with numerous dinosaur bone fossils visible up close, but strict rules apply: · Maintain a 1.5-meter safe distance from fossils; no stepping on or climbing the rock layers · You may bring a small brush to clean off loose dirt for a simple archaeological experience; it is illegal to remove any fossils · The ground clay is soft; stay on existing trails and avoid stepping on soil slopes 3. 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.

Autumn in northwest China holds the most exquisite romance in the world. Every year from September to October, the 20-day golden poplar viewing period passes in a flash. This 7-day, 6-night off-the-beaten-path photography route brings together five major landscapes: poplars, desert, Danxia landforms, snow-capped mountains, and grasslands. The trip starts and ends in Lanzhou, with small groups of 3–7 people traveling in style. Comfortable 5-, 7-, or 9-seat vehicles accompany the journey, avoiding crowded buses. The entire trip is purely for sightseeing with no shopping stops, allowing plenty of free time for photography. The route connects four secret poplar forests: poplars reflected in the clear waters by Jinta, with gentle streams and small bridges offering a soothing atmosphere; the soft water and sand of Ruoshui’s Golden Sand Bay showing tender beauty; Ejina poplar forest, the filming location of "Hero," where reflections at Erdao Bridge and the heroic forest at Sidao Bridge create perfect photo spots; and the strange forest with gnarled dead trees, revealing a thousand years of history under the sunset and starry sky. More than just poplars, the journey holds many surprises. Head to the Badain Jaran Desert to witness the rare sight of sand dunes coexisting with blue lakes. Experience sandboarding and camel riding to fully immerse yourself in desert culture. At dawn, visit Juyan Lake to see the sunrise dye the water red, with seagulls flying over the reeds, capturing a watercolor-like sunrise scene. Explore the Pingshan Lake Grand Canyon, where layers of red rock rise dramatically, rivaling the Colorado Canyon. Finish with a visit to Binggou River, where the Qilian snow mountains, primeval forest, and green meadows form a healing landscape painting, fulfilling the dream of mountains, sea, and grasslands. Accommodation is fully upgraded, with the first night at a four-star hotel in Lanzhou and the rest in carefully selected local standard rooms. Free 24-hour airport transfers in Lanzhou are included for double travelers. The trip includes 6 breakfasts, all attraction tickets, and shuttle buses along the route at one price. Core sites like Badain Jaran, Juyan Lake, and the poplar forests require no extra fees. Exclusive desert poplar forest tickets are also included, along with an outdoor headscarf, daily bottled water, and travel accident insurance.

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing. This hidden gem away from the crowds offers perfect shots for your social feed.

#mytripvlog When people take a road trip, traveling between Los Angeles and Las Vegas along Interstate 15, the colorful installation art will catch travelers' eyes when passing through desert landscapes. About 10 miles south of Las Vegas, the Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone decided on the location to present his large-scale public art to brighten the Mojave desert day and night.

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!

Chimney Rock State Park gave me one of my favorite combinations of mountains and fall foliage. The rocky cliffs immediately caught my attention, but the colorful forests around them were just as impressive. From the viewpoints, I could see autumn colors spreading across the surrounding landscape, creating a beautiful contrast with the stone formations. The trails and viewpoints made it easy to find different perspectives throughout the visit. I would definitely recommend visiting in the fall if you enjoy photography because the scenery offers plenty of dramatic compositions. #fallcolors #fallcolors

Beside the bustling coastline of Kuwait City stands a palace of light and shadow floating above the blue Persian Gulf—the Kuwait Hyatt Hotel. It is not just a place to stay but a living work of art, weaving the vast poetic desert and the profound dreams of the ocean into every inch of its space. 🏙️ Environment and Stunning Views The hotel is like a crystal embedded in the city skyline, towering on the Golden Coast of the Al Bahar district. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a never-repeating three-dimensional painting: by day, the azure bay sways with yachts and sails, and the distant city silhouette sparkles under the blazing sun; at nightfall, the window reveals a galaxy of countless lights and shimmering bay waves, with the Kuwait Towers standing quietly like diamond lighthouses guarding the city’s romance. The sound of the tide is an eternal accompaniment, and when sipping on the terrace, it feels as if you can touch the wind from the bay, carrying salt grains and freedom. 🏛️ Unique Design Aesthetics The architecture itself is a visual epic. Crafted by a renowned architect, its smooth curved exterior resembles a frozen moment of a wave or a modern fortress rising from the desert. Entering the lobby with its soaring height of several tens of meters, light and shadow take center stage—the giant glass curtain wall pours in daylight, intertwining with over a thousand custom crystal lamps on the dome, creating different spectrums between day and night. The interior is inspired by the "dialogue between ocean and desert," featuring mother-of-pearl inlaid walls, sand-colored marble floors, wave-patterned metal screens, and even the scent of ebony and agarwood in the air, quietly telling the dual soul of this land. 🛌 Guest Rooms: A Cloud-Top Retreat The guest rooms are sanctuaries suspended between sea and sky. Beneath minimalist lines lies ultimate luxury: Egyptian cotton bedding cradles dreams like clouds, and a smart control system adjusts the space to the most comfortable setting with one touch. The most captivating feature is the floor-to-ceiling window that runs through the room—whether soaking in the bathtub by the window watching the sunset sink below the horizon or curled up on the sofa witnessing the city lights turn on one by one, it feels like owning a vast, eternally flowing painting. The bathroom walls are inlaid with glass tiles crafted by local artists, mimicking wave patterns that shimmer softly under the light. 🍽️ Dining: A Culinary Journey Along the Silk Road The hotel’s four restaurants and lounges offer a taste pilgrimage across cultures. · Olea: The Mediterranean restaurant is like a sky garden, with olive tree shadows swaying. The signature seafood tower is filled with the day’s freshest catch, and the olive oil drips evoke a rare verdant poetry in Kuwait. · Bazaar: An immersive market restaurant filled with the aroma of Middle Eastern spices. Freshly baked Arabic bread and slow-cooked lamb are reinterpreted over open kitchen flames, reviving ancient recipes. · The Lounge: Afternoon tea time features silverware holding saffron desserts and date mousse, with the bay outside as an endless landscape painting. · Sky Lounge: At night, neon flows beneath your feet, the signature cocktail "Desert Rose" blooms in the glass, and jazz music flows like water over the starlit terrace. Here, time softens. You can stroll along the coastal promenade, watching white sails glide across the golden sunset; or swim in the rooftop infinity pool, your body immersed in water while your gaze dances with the skyline and seabirds. The Kuwait Hyatt Hotel offers not just a night’s rest but a sensory awakening—letting the bay’s wind pass through your hair, the city’s light reflect in your eyes, and the passion and tranquility of this ancient land deeply etched into the folds of every traveler’s memory.

#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

If you ask me what the must-see attraction in Muscat is, I would without hesitation recommend the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque. Its impact is not just about being "big" or "beautiful," but the solemnity, purity, and breathtaking power when the first morning light falls on the white marble. 🌅 01|Morning Encounter: The First Stunning Sight of the Grand Mosque The moment you step into the mosque’s outer courtyard, all drowsiness instantly disappears. The Grand Mosque is the largest mosque in Oman and the fifth largest in the world. The morning light slants over the smooth arches, intricately carved stone pillars, and spacious courtyard, bathing the entire building in a soft golden glow, so peaceful you dare not speak loudly. Standing at the entrance for those few seconds, you will understand the true meaning of "magnificent." 🧕 02|Must-Know Before Entering: The Strictest Dress Code The dress code here is definitely one of the strictest in Oman: Men and women must wear "long sleeves + long pants/long skirts." Short sleeves + scarf covering arms = not compliant (officially not accepted). If you dress incorrectly, you can rent an abaya/robe outside the entrance and be ready in minutes. Tip: 📌 For better photos, it’s recommended to wear dark or earth-toned long skirts, which harmonize well with the marble background. ✨ 03|Main Prayer Hall: Look Up for Awe Entering the main prayer hall is one of the most "wow" moments of this Muscat trip. ✧ Giant Crystal Chandelier The mosque’s treasure, custom-made in Germany, embedded with thousands of Swarovski crystals. When lit, the entire hall looks like it’s gently illuminated by the Milky Way. ✧ 40-Meter Diameter Huge Dome One of the largest domes in the Middle East. The geometric patterns inside the dome are orderly and intricate, like a three-dimensional Islamic art scroll. ✧ Carved Walls and Carpet Details Whether you look up or down, every inch is worth stopping to admire. 🌤️ 04|Don’t Miss the Outer Corridor: Charming Light and Reflections Many visitors leave quickly after seeing the main prayer hall, but what truly excites photographers is the outer corridor and courtyard. The carved window lattices filter sunlight, casting patterns on the ground and walls, perfect for capturing delicate shadow patterns; And don’t miss the clean, flat courtyard floor reflections—I crouched in a secluded corner for half an hour to capture the mosque’s reflection because the ground was so clean the entire mosque was perfectly mirrored. That shot is rare and unforgettable in my memory. 📍 05|Visiting Hours and Tips To make your experience perfect, remember these: ⏰ Opening Hours Closed on Fridays Open 8:00–11:00 on other days (morning only) 📌 Best to enter between 8:00–9:00 for the softest light and fewest people. 💰 Admission Free 📸 Photo Tips Shoot arches and corridors against the light for the most beautiful shadows Courtyard floor reflections are great for reflection shots (shooting from a low angle enhances the mirror effect) Avoid noon when the light is too harsh 🕌 06|The Grand Mosque, the Soul of Muscat It is not only Oman’s most magnificent mosque but also the place where Muscat’s spirit is most concentrated. Here, you can see the pinnacle of Arabic architecture, the most healing morning light and shadows, and feel a calm and profound sense unique to Muscat. If you come to Oman and can only visit one landmark— It must be the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque.

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.

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.”

Departure City: About 3.5 hours drive from Albuquerque 2. Road Conditions: The last 10 miles are gravel and dirt roads, bumpy and full of potholes; a four-wheel drive or high-clearance off-road vehicle is required; regular cars are very likely to scrape the bottom 3. Travel Tips: Gas stations are scarce along the way; fill up the tank before departure; no public transportation available, self-driving only 4. Best Photography Times: 2 hours after sunrise and 1.5 hours before sunset for the most saturated rock colors; at night, you can shoot the desert Milky Way starry sky 🗺️ Three Core Routes 1. Badlands Overlook | 360° Danxia Panorama The highest point in the area, surrounded by colorful rock pillars in a ring. In the early morning, mist covers the iconic mushroom rocks, creating a full atmospheric vibe. Photography Tips: Use a wide-angle lens for panoramic canyon shots and a telephoto lens to compress rock layers; wear bright red, orange, or yellow clothing to contrast with the earth-yellow and orange-red rock walls for striking photos. 2. Fossil Valley Trail | Jurassic Archaeological Site The trail surface is scattered with numerous dinosaur bone fossils visible up close, but strict rules apply: · Maintain a 1.5-meter safe distance from fossils; no stepping on or climbing the rock layers · You may bring a small brush to clean off loose dirt for a simple archaeological experience; it is illegal to remove any fossils · The ground clay is soft; stay on existing trails and avoid stepping on soil slopes 3. 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.

Autumn in northwest China holds the most exquisite romance in the world. Every year from September to October, the 20-day golden poplar viewing period passes in a flash. This 7-day, 6-night off-the-beaten-path photography route brings together five major landscapes: poplars, desert, Danxia landforms, snow-capped mountains, and grasslands. The trip starts and ends in Lanzhou, with small groups of 3–7 people traveling in style. Comfortable 5-, 7-, or 9-seat vehicles accompany the journey, avoiding crowded buses. The entire trip is purely for sightseeing with no shopping stops, allowing plenty of free time for photography. The route connects four secret poplar forests: poplars reflected in the clear waters by Jinta, with gentle streams and small bridges offering a soothing atmosphere; the soft water and sand of Ruoshui’s Golden Sand Bay showing tender beauty; Ejina poplar forest, the filming location of "Hero," where reflections at Erdao Bridge and the heroic forest at Sidao Bridge create perfect photo spots; and the strange forest with gnarled dead trees, revealing a thousand years of history under the sunset and starry sky. More than just poplars, the journey holds many surprises. Head to the Badain Jaran Desert to witness the rare sight of sand dunes coexisting with blue lakes. Experience sandboarding and camel riding to fully immerse yourself in desert culture. At dawn, visit Juyan Lake to see the sunrise dye the water red, with seagulls flying over the reeds, capturing a watercolor-like sunrise scene. Explore the Pingshan Lake Grand Canyon, where layers of red rock rise dramatically, rivaling the Colorado Canyon. Finish with a visit to Binggou River, where the Qilian snow mountains, primeval forest, and green meadows form a healing landscape painting, fulfilling the dream of mountains, sea, and grasslands. Accommodation is fully upgraded, with the first night at a four-star hotel in Lanzhou and the rest in carefully selected local standard rooms. Free 24-hour airport transfers in Lanzhou are included for double travelers. The trip includes 6 breakfasts, all attraction tickets, and shuttle buses along the route at one price. Core sites like Badain Jaran, Juyan Lake, and the poplar forests require no extra fees. Exclusive desert poplar forest tickets are also included, along with an outdoor headscarf, daily bottled water, and travel accident insurance. The 7-day pace is relaxed and well balanced, with long drives broken up reasonably. No rushing or ticking off check-ins. Chase sunrises in the early morning, watch sunsets at dusk, capture silhouettes of the strange forest under the stars, and stroll through golden forests by day. Both photography enthusiasts and leisure travelers will find their perfect scenery. Multiple group departures are available in September and October 2026, with only slight price adjustments during the National Day holiday. Miss it, and you’ll have to wait another year. Three thousand years of poplars await a season of gold, deserts, canyons, and lakes await your arrival. Take advantage of the perfect autumn light to embark on this northwest feast of fall colors, collecting the desert’s golden glow and the Gobi’s starry sky.

The blend of rain and fall colors at Multnomah Falls creates a surreal, almost dreamlike feeling. #waterfalls #pacificnorthwest #pnw #beautifuldestinations #waterfalllovers #nature #pnwphotography #pnwexplored

Who would have thought that Northern California hides this healing Glass Beach? It used to be a century-old landfill, but after decades of ocean waves washing over it, the sharp broken glass has all been polished into smooth colorful stones, covering the entire coastline. Under the sunlight, it sparkles like a spilled candy jar 💎 📍Exact address: Fort Bragg, CA 95437 A 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco, heading north along Highway CA-1, the coastal scenery along the way is truly soothing. The best time to visit is between 3-5 PM when the soft light makes the glass stones look transparent and bright. Be sure to time your visit with low tide so that the large patches of colorful gems are fully exposed, creating a perfect atmosphere for photos. Two must-shoot spots to remember: a panoramic aerial view of Rainbow Beach with stunning color layers; and by the sea cave waiting for sunlight to refract through the waves, creating amazing light and shadow effects. Travel tips: The rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It’s windy by the sea, so bring a light jacket. Absolutely do not take any glass stones—leave them for others to enjoy. After checking out the beach, you can also plan nearby activities: ride the Skunk Train through the forest, visit the fairy-tale-like town of Mendocino. A full day trip without rushing. This hidden gem away from the crowds offers perfect shots for your social feed.

#mytripvlog When people take a road trip, traveling between Los Angeles and Las Vegas along Interstate 15, the colorful installation art will catch travelers' eyes when passing through desert landscapes.

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!

Chimney Rock State Park gave me one of my favorite combinations of mountains and fall foliage. The rocky cliffs immediately caught my attention, but the colorful forests around them were just as impressive. From the viewpoints, I could see autumn colors spreading across the surrounding landscape, creating a beautiful contrast with the stone formations. The trails and viewpoints made it easy to find different perspectives throughout the visit. I would definitely recommend visiting in the fall if you enjoy photography because the scenery offers plenty of dramatic compositions. #fallcolors #fallcolors

Beside the bustling coastline of Kuwait City stands a palace of light and shadow floating above the blue Persian Gulf—the Kuwait Hyatt Hotel. It is not just a place to stay but a living work of art, weaving the vast poetic desert and the profound dreams of the ocean into every inch of its space. 🏙️ Environment and Stunning Views The hotel is like a crystal embedded in the city skyline, towering on the Golden Coast of the Al Bahar district. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a never-repeating three-dimensional painting: by day, the azure bay sways with yachts and sails, and the distant city silhouette sparkles under the blazing sun; at nightfall, the window reveals a galaxy of countless lights and shimmering bay waves, with the Kuwait Towers standing quietly like diamond lighthouses guarding the city’s romance. The sound of the tide is an eternal accompaniment, and when sipping on the terrace, it feels as if you can touch the wind from the bay, carrying salt grains and freedom. 🏛️ Unique Design Aesthetics The architecture itself is a visual epic. Crafted by a renowned architect, its smooth curved exterior resembles a frozen moment of a wave or a modern fortress rising from the desert. Entering the lobby with its soaring height of several tens of meters, light and shadow take center stage—the giant glass curtain wall pours in daylight, intertwining with over a thousand custom crystal lamps on the dome, creating different spectrums between day and night. The interior is inspired by the "dialogue between ocean and desert," featuring mother-of-pearl inlaid walls, sand-colored marble floors, wave-patterned metal screens, and even the scent of ebony and agarwood in the air, quietly telling the dual soul of this land. 🛌 Guest Rooms: A Cloud-Top Retreat The guest rooms are sanctuaries suspended between sea and sky. Beneath minimalist lines lies ultimate luxury: Egyptian cotton bedding cradles dreams like clouds, and a smart control system adjusts the space to the most comfortable setting with one touch. The most captivating feature is the floor-to-ceiling window that runs through the room—whether soaking in the bathtub by the window watching the sunset sink below the horizon or curled up on the sofa witnessing the city lights turn on one by one, it feels like owning a vast, eternally flowing painting. The bathroom walls are inlaid with glass tiles crafted by local artists, mimicking wave patterns that shimmer softly under the light. 🍽️ Dining: A Culinary Journey Along the Silk Road The hotel’s four restaurants and lounges offer a taste pilgrimage across cultures. · Olea: The Mediterranean restaurant is like a sky garden, with olive tree shadows swaying. The signature seafood tower is filled with the day’s freshest catch, and the olive oil drips evoke a rare verdant poetry in Kuwait. · Bazaar: An immersive market restaurant filled with the aroma of Middle Eastern spices. Freshly baked Arabic bread and slow-cooked lamb are reinterpreted over open kitchen flames, reviving ancient recipes. · The Lounge: Afternoon tea time features silverware holding saffron desserts and date mousse, with the bay outside as an endless landscape painting. · Sky Lounge: At night, neon flows beneath your feet, the signature cocktail "Desert Rose" blooms in the glass, and jazz music flows like water over the starlit terrace. Here, time softens. You can stroll along the coastal promenade, watching white sails glide across the golden sunset; or swim in the rooftop infinity pool, your body immersed in water while your gaze dances with the skyline and seabirds. The Kuwait Hyatt Hotel offers not just a night’s rest but a sensory awakening—letting the bay’s wind pass through your hair, the city’s light reflect in your eyes, and the passion and tranquility of this ancient land deeply etched into the folds of every traveler’s memory.

#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

If you ask me what the must-see attraction in Muscat is, I would without hesitation recommend the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque. Its impact is not just about being "big" or "beautiful," but the solemnity, purity, and breathtaking power when the first morning light falls on the white marble. 🌅 01|Morning Encounter: The First Stunning Sight of the Grand Mosque The moment you step into the mosque’s outer courtyard, all drowsiness instantly disappears. The Grand Mosque is the largest mosque in Oman and the fifth largest in the world. The morning light slants over the smooth arches, intricately carved stone pillars, and spacious courtyard, bathing the entire building in a soft golden glow, so peaceful you dare not speak loudly. Standing at the entrance for those few seconds, you will understand the true meaning of "magnificent." 🧕 02|Must-Know Before Entering: The Strictest Dress Code The dress code here is definitely one of the strictest in Oman: Men and women must wear "long sleeves + long pants/long skirts." Short sleeves + scarf covering arms = not compliant (officially not accepted). If you dress incorrectly, you can rent an abaya/robe outside the entrance and be ready in minutes. Tip: 📌 For better photos, it’s recommended to wear dark or earth-toned long skirts, which harmonize well with the marble background. ✨ 03|Main Prayer Hall: Look Up for Awe Entering the main prayer hall is one of the most "wow" moments of this Muscat trip. ✧ Giant Crystal Chandelier The mosque’s treasure, custom-made in Germany, embedded with thousands of Swarovski crystals. When lit, the entire hall looks like it’s gently illuminated by the Milky Way. ✧ 40-Meter Diameter Huge Dome One of the largest domes in the Middle East. The geometric patterns inside the dome are orderly and intricate, like a three-dimensional Islamic art scroll. ✧ Carved Walls and Carpet Details Whether you look up or down, every inch is worth stopping to admire. 🌤️ 04|Don’t Miss the Outer Corridor: Charming Light and Reflections Many visitors leave quickly after seeing the main prayer hall, but what truly excites photographers is the outer corridor and courtyard. The carved window lattices filter sunlight, casting patterns on the ground and walls, perfect for capturing delicate shadow patterns; And don’t miss the clean, flat courtyard floor reflections—I crouched in a secluded corner for half an hour to capture the mosque’s reflection because the ground was so clean the entire mosque was perfectly mirrored. That shot is rare and unforgettable in my memory. 📍 05|Visiting Hours and Tips To make your experience perfect, remember these: ⏰ Opening Hours Closed on Fridays Open 8:00–11:00 on other days (morning only) 📌 Best to enter between 8:00–9:00 for the softest light and fewest people. 💰 Admission Free 📸 Photo Tips Shoot arches and corridors against the light for the most beautiful shadows Courtyard floor reflections are great for reflection shots (shooting from a low angle enhances the mirror effect) Avoid noon when the light is too harsh 🕌 06|The Grand Mosque, the Soul of Muscat It is not only Oman’s most magnificent mosque but also the place where Muscat’s spirit is most concentrated. Here, you can see the pinnacle of Arabic architecture, the most healing morning light and shadows, and feel a calm and profound sense unique to Muscat. If you come to Oman and can only visit one landmark— It must be the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque.

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.
