a trip to Zhaoqing.

I always found Hiking and swimming are good. But if these two can mixed together, then It would be perfect good. And that's what I did last few days in DINGHU Mountain, lies in the suburb of Zhaoqing, a city about 90 minutes on bus from Guangzhou.
The steams there, the rocks &stones there, the little water falls there, and the exotic flowers and trees there...on your way up to the peak, those are always accompanying you, and making you feeling like in a fairyland!!
I with 5 other girls lived in the youth hostel in the mountain, the second day we arrived there, I got up very early to go swimming in a natural form pool about 10 minutes walk. Because it was so early in the morning, only a few cleaners there clean the pathway, and it's extremely quiet. The water is cool in the pool, but after a few minutes, you become warm, and besides the pool there is a small water falls, So, can you image how is it like you dunk yourself in water and listening to the bicker of water and the sound of birds..¡And also it's said that Dinghu Mountain is a best place to breathe anion.
On the top of the Mountain, there is a huge TING and several small TING , which is an kind of ancient cooking vessel. And on the 3/4 of the mountain there is a very old and large temple which almost 400 years old, and in the Temple there is a restaurant serves vegetable dishes , and it's absolutely good!! And also there is some kind of special tea from that mountain, which made by some purple leaves, but tastes like fruit tea. The Zongzi there is also very famous.
One day ,the other 5 girls decided go to Tixingyan, where I have ever been to, so I decided walking around the city myself, and a little but not quite surprised, I found a small Christian church there----I just walked and even passed the church, but suddenly an idea came to my mind, so I asked people passerby, 'is there a church nearby?' --and yes!!! the place I just passed, It is a church!!!(It's really small then if you don't pay attention, you can't notice it.) So I went into the church. and because it's only Friday noon, so almost no any people there, but only a worker of the church, so we had a nice talk through the afternoon.
It was soooooo nice staying in Dinghu mountain, so sometime in the future, when you get the chance to go there, and maybe you would see somebody cleaning the path of the mountain looks like it's me, don't hesitate to call out my name, because It probably is me!!
A wanna to be a cleaner in Dinghu Mountain's
