A Trip to Tibet (Speaking English)

Last June my friend and I traveled to Tibet for our graduation trip. Tibet is known as the nearest place to heaven because of its high altitude, and is also called the last piece of pure land in the world. When we got there, we were shocked by<s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">e</s> the scenery and culture there.

We did a lot of things in Tibet. We went to many famous scenic spots, temples, and palaces, like three hol<s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">l</s>y lakes, Jolchang Temple and Postala palace. Tibetan food is also very attractive and unique, roast sheep and beef are very gender(?? 這句話是性別的意思), <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">sweet</s> and the barley wine is sweet. The most interesting thing there was that one afternoon I was sitting in a chair on the street and waiting for the local people's pilgrimage. I just couldn't help but wonder how<s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"> can</s> these people donate<s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">s</s> all of their wealth to temples instead of using it to improve their lives. I did't figure it out; maybe that is the mystery of Tibet<s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">e</s> and the greatness of religion.

I felt very happy and exicited when I saw the magnificent natural landscapes and artificial architecture<s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">s</s>. I was also deeply attracted by the mysteriousness of their religious culture, which makes me feel very calm and peaceful.
