The Peach Blossom Spring has a unique charm after the snowfall

Changde Peach Blossom Spring| Finally arrived at the fairyland in Tao Yuanming's writing. Changde is a popular tourist destination in Hunan. The Peach Blossom Spring is about 50km away from Changde city, about 1 hour by car, and it is a 5A scenic spot. The Peach Blossom Spring in Tao Yuanming's writing suddenly appeared vividly before my eyes. Admiring the literary talent and wisdom of the ancients, when I saw such beautiful scenery, I could only say 'it's so beautiful', but Tao Yuanming was able to depict this scene vividly in just a hundred words, timeless and undiminished, while also incorporating his own inner spiritual world. However, in this season, I did not see the 'fragrant grass and colorful fallen petals' of the peach blossom forest. Instead, there were fragrant osmanthus and chrysanthemums everywhere. On the Five Willow Lake, there were a few flat boats, with fishermen holding double oars, and a few birds standing on the boat. Although the 'Nanshan' in 'Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan' is Lushan, here, in order to commemorate him, Taoshan was also built into such a leisurely environment. Walking into the deep mountains, there were almost no people, breathing in the natural oxygen bar, it was too comfortable. My parents kept complaining, why there are no people in this 5A scenic spot even during the National Day. I retorted, isn't it good that there are no people, enjoying the beautiful scenery alone. The Yuanming Temple on the mountain records the life of Tao Yuanming, who refused to bow for five pecks of rice and resigned several times, chose to 'lie flat' in an environment where he could not realize his ambitions. From today's perspective, this spirit is really worth learning, he is truly the pioneer of anti-involution. In the end, he lived to be 62, which was already a long life at that time. Living happily and long, what else can one ask for. After wandering around the scenic spot for three hours, I really felt calm and content, and all my troubles disappeared. It's so beautiful~
