One of the most exciting colors in the Great Rift Valley in East Africa is the Valley of the Valley, a canyon in the cliffs that twists and turns and travels strangely between the mountains. It is said that it was once a tributary lake in prehistoric times, with obvious traces of water erosion. From the grassland area to the canyon area, the narrow and steep road is no longer suitable for cycling, we parked the vehicle and began to hike. We follow the navigation without a guide, follow the tourists' voices and maps to find directions. After the forest has a gentle slope, to hit a valley, a bit familiar, this is like the African version of the American Antelope Valley, although there is no exquisite femininity of the Antelope Valley, but there are similarities. Going on, the canyon is getting wider and wider, and the narrowest part of the canyon is only allowed to pass by one person. The widest place is less than ten meters. In a gentle slope of four or five meters, you need to climb with a long rope to continue to travel. We learn to walk in front of the tourists. I volunteered to be the first one. I thought it was very simple. I didn't expect the power to be offset from the direction of the rope. I was careful to take it. The rope was placed between the feet. I put my hands on the climb and reached the top. This kind of adventure. pleasure. Swim in the rift, the rocky peaks on both sides are full of chronology, strange rocks, gullies, and if returned to 30 million years ago, human beings are nothing but prey in the Great Rift Valley.

Our animal tour comes to Kenya's Hell's Gate National Park, a relatively small fresh wildlife sanctuary. In Africa, many national parks need to sit in a protective car to watch wild animals, and not to have further contact with animals. And here is the only national park in Kenya that can walk or ride. There are almost no lions, leopards and other meat-eaters, but many herbivores can be seen. We also capture monkeys who love cookies. For the carnivores of the King of Africa, if you can see that it is luck, we can't see that we are going to visit the parks in Namibia, and we can also get in touch with them, an African fierce punch. Although I can't see the "Africa brother" - the lion and the "two brothers of Africa" - the leopard, but can be intimately contacted by the tame wild animals, no longer the kindness of the teacher Zhao Zhongxiang on TV. Discourse. When you see the animals you like, stop and watch them quietly. Look cool and go on the road again to find the next target. This free and friendly nature of Safari is a rare African experience.
