A 28-year-old man from Anhui became popular recently. His video about taking a bus trip to Harbin Ice-Snow World got a lot of attention online. He said he wanted to try a slow trip because he hoped to enjoy the scenery along the way and feel the real life in different places. So he chose to travel by bus instead of high-speed train or plane. This special journey surprised many people around him.
The whole trip took him 68 days. He passed 25 cities along the way, which made him see different local customs. Among all the places he visited, Mount Tai and the Palace Museum left the deepest impression on him. Climbing Mount Tai made him feel small in front of nature, and visiting the Palace Museum let him know more about Chinese history. The total cost of the trip was about 13,000 yuan. He said the Harbin Ice-Snow World was much more shocking when he saw it in person than in online videos.
During the trip, he met many kind people. Once, he was stuck at a station because of heavy rain, and a stranger gave him hot soup. Another time, a bus driver showed him around Tianjin Eye after knowing his plan.
He thought this bus trip was very meaningful. It let him see beautiful scenery that he couldn’t see by high-speed train or plane. He also felt the warmth of the world through the kindness of strangers.
