Features: "Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles" was the pursuit of ancient scholars in their quest for knowledge and self-cultivation. In the 21st century, "ten thousand books" and "ten thousand miles" are no longer rare or difficult to attain, but the challenge lies in reading books that are truly useful and traveling paths that are not in vain. China is a vast country with abundant tourism resources, and exploring China is a common passion and pursuit for descendants of the Yellow River. Therefore, "Ctrip's Journey Through China" was republished under the anticipation of countless travel enthusiasts and netizens, undoubtedly playing a positive role in helping domestic travelers avoid unnecessary detours and appreciate more beautiful scenery. Unique entry points, scenic spot introductions, travel guides, precautions, little-known facts, tips, and budget planning for trips are all presented in the book, forming its distinctive practical structure. It is particularly noteworthy that the book carries recommendations from thousands of "travelers" (often referred to as "luyou") for hidden gems across the country, many of which may have been previously unknown. Thus, avid travelers can see how to explore, food lovers can discover where to dine, photography enthusiasts can find scenic spots with photo references, and backpackers can locate like-minded companions. These valuable experiences of learning by doing are the result of Ctrip Travel Network's six years of operation in its travel community, as well as the collective efforts of numerous travel enthusiasts over time. Naturally, these should be shared with society and readers to further promote their value.
