What do you think people can learn from traveling?

There’s a lot to learn when traveling. First of all, if we go to some historical places like Beijing or Xi’an, we can obviously learn about the local history and culture. In addition, if we go to the countryside or visit some of the stunning mountains in my country, we can realize how beautiful China really is, and we can also find out about local legends and folklore. Finally, we can learn about ourselves too, because we can compare other people’s ideas to ours, and plus we have to make decisions as well to plan the trip. We definitely get to think a lot, and learn how to appreciate things back home too when we get back.
