My husband and I visited LUGU lake in China two years ago. I liked it very much.
It's a beautiful small town in Yunan province,in Southwestern China. The town is next to a big blue lake and bush. The air is clean and fresh. In that season,many birds fly from the north and stay there. We saw a lot of colours all around. It was fantastic,expecially when the was shining.
When we arrived there it was already dark. People were holding a party on the grounds. Youngs boy and girls wore traditional clothes,dancing and singing. They sang folk songs loudly. There were many stars in the sky. It was cold,but everybody felt very warm and excited.We joined them and enjoyed it until midnight.
On the second day. We got up early. We went for a long walk through the forest.Next, the villagers paddled us to am island in centre of the lake. We visited a local resident's home. He told us many things about their lives here which were different from ours. I felt very surprised,because they lived in matriarchy. Then we took some photos with their family. We had lunch together. We ate some fish,meat and vegetables and drank some wine. It was green food which was rare in the city. The food was fresh and healthy. The wine was made from a kind of wheat. It tasted fantastic. Some people got drunk. I wish I could stay there for longer next time.
It's my favourite place. It was a great holiday. We'll always remember it.
I have taken part in an activity like this before one day last June, my classmants and I cooked somefood, brought it to school and sold it for raising funds. The money was donated to the cancer research institute. Although everybody was very tired when finished this task. We felt very happy.
