Spring Trip to Yuntai Mountain with All Staffs
Well, alas, in the afternoon of 30, March, we got to the destination-Yuntai Mountain, a national 5A Scenic Spot as well as a world geopark located in Henan Province (in the east of my city). Of course, it’s a quite beautiful and attractive natural-view site, which we are all looking forward to. After more than 6 hour bus drive and not so delicious lunch, we began to start out.
(Hah...take a photo together with all Xi'an egg staffs! Huh..where is me?! Have a guess?! )
Coz it’s still march, this great mountain hasn’t been covered with green, but the spring breath is on the way. True, as the name matches the reality, we saw tons of peaks, springs, and waterfalls….have to admit...It’s quite splendid!! ” whoa…whoa…”that’s the only word we can utter showing our enjoy and appreciation of such natural wonder. Of course, one more thing we kept doing was taking photos here and there as the guide introduced the story of each site. The following interesting scenes are what I'd love to share with u guys. Hope u like 
Scene 1: Shadowboxing performance per hour! And luckily we grasped that exact time and enjoyed a nice show. (wow, Chinese Kung Fu)
Scene 2: Anything special with the weird stone?! The character on it means “longevity”. As local ppl say, as long as u touch this stone, u will be blessed with a long, safe and peaceful life! 
I did do it, so longevity would belong to me...Ah
Quite similar with another scene named Long Life Spring. It’s said once u drink that spring, u will also be blessed with a long healthy life. So to continue this good wish, I bottled long life spring and took back for my family.
Scene 3: See…why are we washing our hands?! As Xiyan Pool story goes, washing hands in this pool, u will easily have access to those celebrated and distinguished universities as u wish. Besides, u will be able to manage a harmonious family and a promising career henceforward. Nice…isn’t it? (Now u can pick me out from so many ppl)
Scene 4: Be observed… what does it look like?! …..Monkey right?!
Scene 5: C’mon…ouch…the monkey was unwilling to pay any attention to us.
Scene 6: I can breathe the spring air, beautiful peach blossom!
Scene 7: As folklore says, this not so attractive stone stands for Chinese indomitable spirit. When u pass it by, feel its rich cultural symbolization with ur gentle touch.
Scene 8: Wow…we are in the bottom of this fantastic mountain. Cool…
…well..there are really lots of beautiful sceneries to viewsight. All the above are my favorites! Wish u like 2. OK…so much for this blog. I’d like to end it up with a quite famous poem concerning this great mountain. (Actually, Yuntai Mountain is also famous for that great poet whose poems always win universal praise. This poem named “Thinking of My Brother on Mountain-climbing Day” was right done in Yuntai Mountain).
Thinking of My Brother on Mountain-climbing Day by Wang Wei
Alone, a lonely stranger in a foreign land,
I pine for kinsfolk doubly on a holiday.
I know my brothers would, with dogwood spray in hand,
Climb the mountain and think of me so far away.
Ps: A dogwood spray carried on mountain-climbing day, that is, the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, was supposed to drive away evil spirits.
Have fun and enjoy it! Any feedbacks, be free to ask me! Well, u can also check this thread to see more sceneries:http://www.eggxpert.com/forums/thread/297218.aspx.
