Because of a dream, I came to a city|Hiking in the Wujiang Gallery

|Hiking in the Wujiang Gallery. Because of a dream, I came to a city, and this is by far the craziest decision I have made. What kind of magic does it possess that drove me all the way from the Spring City of Jinan, thousands of miles away, to this tranquil little town of the Wujiang Gallery—Wulong, Chongqing. I heard from a Beijinger that Wulong is not a place where a thousand people come only once, but a place worth a thousand visits for one person. Perhaps it is this mysterious magnetic field that attracts me to seek the long-lost self and soul... 🎶The water carries the stone bridge, the bridge town Changba Today, I will start exploring the first stop of Wulong, a city with mysterious attraction, and the internet-famous Changba of Wulong is my first choice. ⏯Departing from the main city, it takes an hour's drive to reach Changba Town. As the car drives on this paper-thin bridge, the howling wind beside my ears replaces the hustle and bustle of the city, and nature amplifies all my senses. I can't help but think that the road of life is often like this thrilling bridge, with unknown dangers ahead, and we have no choice but to bravely move forward. 📝Hiking is a person's practice, to see oneself, to see the world, to see all beings. ⏩I stretch out my hand as if I can touch the pulse of Wulong's magical karst canyon, and the whole world seems to be just me, empty and free. On the narrow walking plank road of the 'hanging water channel,' I don't have to pretend to fit in; I can walk very fast alone, or I can choose to go with the flow and walk with others. Walking and stopping🚶‍♀, the dangerous and stunning scenery hits me in the face. Looking up at the mountains⛰ at this moment, I feel integrated with the mountains and rivers, and to my surprise, even with my fear of heights, I can stand on a cliff 200 meters above the ground and look down at the mountains. I suddenly see the light: only by constantly daring to break through oneself can one harvest the most extraordinary scenery. Instead of looking up to others' brilliance, why not bravely climb🧗‍♀ your own journey! ➡After finishing the hanging water channel, I feel it's not enough. Standing on the century-old Yaozhan Iron Chain Bridge, every moment feels like meditation, extremely relaxed and satisfied. In front of the mountains🏔, canyons🌲, and streams🏞 of Wulong, I can take off all my disguises, remove the mask, let go of the pretense, and be my true self, with no one to stop me❕ Say goodbye to anxiety, step into the mountains and wilderness, the brave enjoy the world first❗The healing of adults often only requires a hike‼ Leave the tiredness in the mountains and rivers. From this moment on, I resolutely decide to continue staying in Wulong, to continue exploring more unknown and mysterious beauty of Wulong, to meet the more magnificent🆙 mountains and the free🆓 wind.
