Chapter 212: A Land of Idyllic Beauty
The return journey was much slower than their trip to the Taiyin Mountain Range.
Inspired by Han Jiaojiao’s love for natural scenery during their time in the mountains, Han Yi deliberately sought out routes with good views. After all, they were not in a rush, and returning to the base a day or two late was no problem.
The trip covered nearly one thousand five hundred kilometers. To take in the scenery, the newly planned route added an extra five hundred kilometers, but this route indeed passed through numerous tourist areas.
Among them, the most famous was the ruins of Ancient Yujing City.
It was said that this ancient city was one of the four best-preserved ancient cities in the world. There were nearly a hundred palaces and almost ten thousand houses, with magnificent architecture and bright and spacious courtyards. Statues of auspicious and mystical creatures, lifelike in appearance, could be seen everywhere.
Having gone through two dynasties and modern restorations, the city was abundant in greenery. Complemented by artificial hills and traditional Chinese buildings, such as pavilions, towers, and terraces, and planted with green pines, cypresses, peonies, and hydrangeas, the colors reflected each other, creating a serene and tranquil beauty.
If one climbed up to the city gates and looked down upon the entire Ancient Yujing City, the grandeur and magnificent landscape would be even more breathtaking!
Han Jiaojiao was absolutely in love, her fatigue swept away. She excitedly toured around while holding onto Han Yi’s hand.
