I wandered around Mount Langya

It's just an hour's drive from Nanjing, so I arrived in Chuzhou City in time for a meal, and then went for a walk in the mountains in the afternoon. I read 'The Record of the Drunken Old Man's Pavilion' in middle school, especially the first sentence: 'The mountains surround Chuzhou.' But I missed the event where reciting it would grant free entry, so I didn't go into the scenic spot and just took it as a spring outing. The air in the mountains was good, and as I walked along, just as Ouyang Xiu wrote, the path wound around the peaks, and gradually I heard the babbling of water. It was the afternoon, the sunlight was warm on my body, making me feel sleepy. We found a comfortable spot in a coffee shop by the Deep Show Lake, drank something, leaned back, and rested for a while. A gentle breeze was blowing, filled with the scent of flowers, very pleasant! I truly experienced the meaning of 'The old man's interest is not in the wine, but in the landscape between the mountains and rivers.' On the way back, I saw many citizens exercising and playing in the scenic area, recreating the scene described by Ouyang Xiu: 'Some carry loads and sing along the way, some rest under trees, the ones in front call out, the ones behind respond, stooping and helping each other, an endless stream of people from Chuzhou enjoying themselves.'
