After the performance, the three of them couldn't calm down for a long time. They were deeply shocked by the performance and had a deeper understanding of Guilin's culture.

"This performance is really great, and it gave me a deeper understanding and love for Guilin." Zhang Yuedong said with emotion.

Lin Yifei also said: "Yes, Guilin not only has beautiful mountains and rivers, but also has rich cultural heritage. This trip was really worth it!"

Li Xiao smiled and said, "Yes, the beauty of Guilin is not only in its natural scenery, but also in its humanistic style. We must feel the charm of this city well and leave more beautiful memories."

On the last day in Guilin, the three of them came to the local specialty market and prepared to buy some specialty products and take them back for their relatives and friends.

The specialty market is very lively, with a wide variety of specialties, which is dazzling. There are Guilin rice noodles, Guilin Sanhua wine, Guilin fermented tofu, Lipu taro, Yangshuo kumquats, Yongfu Luohan fruit and other food products, as well as Zhuangjin, Yangshuo painted fans, Guilin chicken blood jade and other handicrafts.

"Wow, there are so many specialties here. What should we buy?" Zhang Yuedong looked at the specialties in the market and was a little at a loss.

Lin Yifei thought for a while and said, "I think Guilin rice noodles and Guilin Sanhua wine are good. These are both the characteristics of Guilin. Take them back for your friends to try."

Zhang Yuedong nodded in agreement: "Okay, then let's buy a few more packets of Guilin rice noodles and a few bottles of Guilin Sanhua wine."

Li Xiao picked up a piece of braised brocade and carefully admired it: "I think braised brocade is also very good. It is a traditional handicraft of the Zhuang people of Guilin. It has exquisite patterns, bright colors, and is very valuable for collection."

Lin Yifei and Zhang Yuedong also came over and looked at Zhuang Jin and praised them: "It's really beautiful, the patterns and colors are very unique."

So they selected a few pieces of braised brocade and prepared to take them back to give to female friends. Then, they came to the stall of Yangshuo Painting Fan. Yangshuo Painting Fan is famous for its exquisite production craftsmanship and unique artistic style. The fan surface is painted with various patterns such as Guilin landscapes, flowers, birds, insects and fish, which are lifelike.

"These painting fans are so beautiful. I want to buy a few more and give them to my colleagues when I go back." Zhang Yuedong picked up a painting fan and couldn't let it go.

Lin Yifei also chose a few: "These painting fans can not only be used as decorations, but also as souvenirs, which is very meaningful."

Li Xiaoze smiled and said, "Yangshuo Painting Fan is a business card of Guilin. It perfectly combines the landscape and scenery of Guilin with traditional Chinese culture, which is worth collecting."

In addition to Zhuangjin and Yangshuo Painting Fans, they also bought some delicious specialties such as Guilin fermented tofu, Lipu taro, Yongfu Luohan Fruit. These specialties are not only delicious, but also have certain nutritional value. They are good products for relatives and friends.

During the process of purchasing specialties, they also chatted with the stall owners and learned about the production methods and the stories behind them. The stall owners were hospitality and not only introduced the characteristics of the specialties in detail, but also shared some interesting stories about life in Guilin, which gave them a deeper understanding of the city.

"This time I came to Guilin, not only did I enjoy the beautiful scenery, taste delicious food, but I also bought so many specialties. I was really rewarding!" Zhang Yuedong said happily.

Lin Yifei also smiled and said, "Yes, Guilin is really an unforgettable place. We will come again next time we have the chance."

Li Xiao nodded in agreement: "Yes, Guilin has far more charm than these, and there are many places worth exploring. This trip is just the beginning, and we will go to more places in the future to experience different customs and cultures."

With a lot of harvest and beautiful memories, the three left Guilin. They knew that this trip to Guilin would become an unforgettable experience in their lives, and the beautiful landscape and unique culture of Guilin will remain in their hearts forever.

Farewell to the picturesque Guilin, the three of them rushed to the next stop - Qingdao. As soon as they arrived in Qingdao, the sea breeze that blew towards them carried the unique salty and humid atmosphere of the sea, which made them instantly excited.

"This is Qingdao. I feel the smell of the sea is filled with the air." Zhang Yuedong took a deep breath, his face full of intoxication.

Lin Yifei also smiled and nodded: "Yes, it is worthy of being a coastal city. The sea breeze alone is fascinating enough."

Li Xiao looked at the city in front of him and was full of expectations: "There are so many fun places in Qingdao, so we must have enough fun this time."

They first came to Qingdao's iconic attractions - the Pier Bridge. The pier was crowded and bustling. The bridge stretched to the depths of the sea, as if it was a passage to the sea.

"Wow, this pier is so long, I feel like I can't see it at a glance." Zhang Yuedong exclaimed.

Lin Yifei looked at Huilan Pavilion in the distance and said, "The end of the pier is Huilan Pavilion. I heard that standing on the pavilion allows you to enjoy the beautiful sea view."

Li Xiao walked and introduced: "The pier is a symbol of Qingdao. It was built in 1892 and has a long history. It was originally built as a military wharf, but later it gradually became an important tourist attraction in Qingdao."

The three of them walked slowly along the trestle. The sea breeze gently blew on their faces, and the waves slapped the cornerstone of the trestle and made a pleasant sound. Standing on the trestle, they looked at the sea from afar, with the sea and sky all the same, boundless, making people feel particularly open.

"Look, there are so many seagulls!" Zhang Yuedong suddenly pointed to the sea and shouted. He saw a group of seagulls flying around the sea, sometimes diving, sometimes flapping their wings and flying high. Their figures looked particularly agile against the blue sky and blue sea.

Lin Yifei quickly took out his camera and wanted to record this beautiful moment: "These seagulls are so cute, I want to take a few more photos."

Li Xiao smiled and said, "In Qingdao, seagulls are a beautiful landscape. They fly to Qingdao from Siberia every year to spend the winter, which adds a lot of vitality to the city."

After a while, they arrived at Huilan Pavilion. Huilan Pavilion is a double-layer octagonal pavilion with red columns and green tiles, carved beams and painted roofs, full of classical charm. There are many people in the pavilion, and everyone is enjoying the surrounding sea view.

"Standing on this pavilion, I feel like the sea is right in front of me. This feeling is great!" Zhang Yuedong said excitedly.

Lin Yifei nodded in agreement: "Yes, this scenery is so beautiful. Qingdao's pier and Huilan Pavilion are indeed well-known."

Li Xiao looked at the sea in the distance and sighed: "This place can not only enjoy the beautiful sea view, but also feel the history and culture of Qingdao. The pier is like a bond connecting the past and the present."

After leaving the pier, they went to Badaguan. Badaguan is a famous scenic spot in Qingdao. It brings together many buildings of different styles and is known as the "World National Architecture Expo".

As soon as they walked into Badaguan, they were attracted by the unique architectural style here. Villas were arranged in an orderly manner on both sides of the street, with red tiles and green trees, which complemented each other.

"These buildings are so beautiful, each of them has its own characteristics." Zhang Yuedong couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at the surrounding buildings.

Lin Yifei also said: "Yes, the buildings here combine multiple styles, including architectural styles from Germany, Britain, France, Russia and other countries, making people feel like they are in a small European town."

Li Xiao introduced: "The buildings at Badaguan are not only beautiful in appearance, but also have many stories behind them. Most of these buildings were consulates, official residences and villas in Qingdao at that time. They witnessed the historical changes of Qingdao and had high historical and cultural value."

They walked along the streets and admired these beautiful buildings. Every time they walked to a building, Li Xiao would tell them the history and characteristics of the building. On Shaoguan Road, they saw a German-style building, which adopts brick and stone structures, with a flat facade, emphasizing the use of symmetry and horizontal and vertical lines, showing the rigor and solemnity of German-style buildings.

"This German-style building looks so strong, and it feels like it still stands tall after years of baptism." Zhang Yuedong said.

Lin Yifei nodded in agreement: "Yes, the quality of German-style buildings has always been very famous. The design and construction of this building are very meticulous, reflecting the Germans' rigorous attitude towards architecture."

Li Xiao smiled and said, "This building not only has a solid appearance, but also has exquisite interior decoration. Its doors, windows, stairs and other details are handled very well, showing the exquisite craftsmanship of German architecture."

At Badaguan, they also saw many British, French, Russian and other styles. British buildings mostly use red bricks and sloping roofs, with rich and diverse facades and pay attention to detailed decoration; French buildings are full of romantic and elegant atmosphere, with gorgeous exteriors and exquisite interior decoration; Russian buildings have a rich Eastern European style, bright colors and unique shapes.

"The buildings at Badaguan are really eye-opening, and each building looks like a work of art." Zhang Yuedong sighed.

Lin Yifei also said: "Yes, the architectural styles here are diverse, which makes people feel the cultural charm of different countries. This time, it is worth visiting Badaguan."

Li Xiao smiled and said, "Badaguan not only has beautiful buildings, but also has beautiful natural environments. Here are green trees, lush flowers and plants, and fresh air. It is a very suitable place for leisurely strolls."

After a pleasant morning at Badaguan, the three decided to go to Laoshan. Located in the eastern part of Qingdao, Laoshan is the highest peak in China's coastline and has the reputation of "the number one mountain on the sea".

"Laoshan is a famous Taoist mountain. The natural scenery and Taoist culture there are very worth seeing." Li Xiao introduced while looking at the map.

Zhang Yuedong said excitedly: "It's so good. I've wanted to go and see it for a long time. I heard that the scenery of Laoshan is beautiful and there are many strange-shaped stones."

Lin Yifei was also full of expectations: "Yes, this time we must appreciate the charm of Laoshan."

They took the bus to the foot of Laoshan. As soon as they got off the bus, the scene in front of them was shocked. The peaks of Laoshan stood tall, surrounded by clouds and mist, like a scroll of ink painting.

"Wow, this is Laoshan, it's so beautiful!" Zhang Yuedong couldn't help but sigh.

Lin Yifei was also shocked by the beautiful scenery in front of him: "This is the magical craftsmanship of nature, it's so spectacular!"

Li Xiao smiled and said, "Let's go up the mountain quickly and experience the unique charm of Laoshan."

They began to climb Laoshan along the mountain path. Along the way, they admired the beautiful scenery around them, breathed the fresh air, and felt the tranquility and beauty of nature. The peaks of Laoshan are of different shapes, some are like camels, some are like lions, and some are like fairies, which makes people sigh at the magic of nature.

"Look, does that mountain look like a camel?" Zhang Yuedong shouted at the mountain peak in the distance.

Lin Yifei looked in the direction he pointed, and smiled and said, "It really looks like, the imagination of nature is really rich."

Li Xiao also nodded in agreement: "This is the peaks of Laoshan. Each one has its own unique shape, which makes people admire the magic of nature."

During the climbing process, they also saw many strange stones. Some of these stones looked like monkeys, some looked like turtles, and some looked like mushrooms. They were realistic in shape and vivid in life.

"These stones are so interesting, it feels like they have been carefully carved by nature." Zhang Yuedong said with a smile at a stone that looks like a monkey.

Lin Yifei also said: "Yes, these stones are a major feature of Laoshan. They not only add a mysterious color to Laoshan, but also give people a deeper understanding of the creativity of nature."

Li Xiao introduced: "Most of the stones in Laoshan are granite, which have formed various shapes after long-term weathering and erosion. These stones not only have ornamental value, but also have certain scientific research value."

In addition to natural scenery, Laoshan also has rich Taoist culture. There are many Taoist temples on the mountain, such as Taiqing Palace, Shangqing Palace, Mingxia Cave, etc. These Taoist temples have a long history and unique architectural style, which are important carriers of Taoist culture.

They first came to Taiqing Palace. Taiqing Palace is the oldest and largest Taoist temple in Laoshan, and it is also the ancestral courtyard of Taoism in Laoshan. When they walked into Taiqing Palace, a simple and elegant atmosphere came to their faces. The Taoist temple is lined with ancient trees, buildings are arranged in an orderly manner, and cigarettes are curling, making people feel the strong Taoist atmosphere.

"Taiqing Palace is so spectacular, and the buildings here are so distinctive." Zhang Yuedong looked at the building in front of him and exclaimed.

Lin Yifei nodded in agreement: "Yes, these buildings reflect the style and characteristics of traditional Chinese architecture and are very exquisite."

Li Xiao introduced: "The Taiqing Palace was first built in the Western Han Dynasty and has undergone many renovations and expansions to form its current scale. Many precious cultural relics and historical relics are preserved here, such as Longtouyu, Sanhuang Hall, Sanqing Hall, etc., which are all treasures of Taoist culture."
