Tourism is not exclusive to young people, and old people should also be close to nature. Especially for the elderly who have just retired, they don't have to be busy with work anymore, and they are a little uncomfortable when they are idle all of a sudden. Just plan a trip, find a few cities with convenient transportation and beautiful scenery, and start a good time for traveling.
Beijing Hutongs (Traditional Chinese Alleys)
Walk around the major hutongs in Beijing and experience the ancient culture of the time-honored capital city. Years always give people unforgettable experiences, maybe your past is inextricably linked with Beijing city. At the age of looking back, I like some old traditions and historical memories.
With a history of more than 800 years, the hutongs in Beijing have recorded countless ups and downs and passed down countless old stories. Walk sideways in the narrowest hutong, stroll in the widest hutong, walk around the hutong with the most turns, and take a look in the oldest hutong. It is not easy to preserve these hutongs to this day. After being there, it seems that you have returned to a long time ago. Listening to the sounds of selling candied haws, stinky tofu, and soy sauce in the hutongs is warm and sweet.
Pingyao Ancient City, Shanxi China
Live a slow life in the ancient city of Pingyao, Shanxi. Walking in this ancient city is like travelling through history. The road paved with slate is full of vicissitudes. South Street is a traditional commercial street with quaint shops lined on both sides.
The guys in the shops are carefully making all kinds of exquisite snacks, sit down and taste them carefully, the traditional flavor is still so attractive. Let's take a look at the earliest bank in China, Rishengchang Bank. One of the statues at the door collects money and the other keeps accounts, which vividly reproduces the prosperity of Shanxi's business at that time. The complete ancient city elements, the bustling crowd, seem to be unable to distinguish whether they are in modern or ancient times.
Picturesque Dali of Yunnan
Enjoy the unique beauty of Dali city. Life after retirement is no longer all about work, but to make it full of sunshine everywhere. Dali in Yunnan is famous for its beautiful scenery. You can see Cangshan Mountain, Erhai Lake, pure sky, green lake, beautiful ancient town, beautiful Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple, and fantastic Butterfly Spring. Every place here is so romantic. The more beautiful scenery I see, the more my heart is purified.
Yantai Seascape, Shandong
Enjoy the seaside scenery in Yantai, Shandong. Yantai is located in the northeast of Shandong Peninsula, across the sea from Dalian, and has a beautiful coastline and golden sandy beaches. Penglai Pavilion is the most famous scenic spot, known as the "Wonderland on Earth". The three immortal mountains in the sea, Penglai, Abbot, and Yingzhou are said to be the places where the gods live. Qin Shihuang once came here to look for the elixir of life because he believed that the gods here could make elixir. The magical legend of the Eight Immortals crossing the sea also happened here.
