Features: This book is prose, yet not entirely prose; it is popular science, yet not entirely popular science; it is a travelogue, yet not entirely a travelogue. To be precise, it is an attempt to combine prose, popular science, and travelogue. It is precisely this attempt that showcases its vitality, drawing readers into the multi-faceted grandeur, magnificence, and beauty of Gaoligongshan. In the "Magnificent" section, articles such as "Emerging from the Sky," "Kingdom of Plants," "Animal Paradise," and "Nujiang Grand Canyon" present the lush charm and magical scenes of Gaoligongshan's landscapes, plants, flowers, trees, birds, and animals. In the "Legend" section, works like "The Distant Ancient Post Road," "The Unforgettable Smoke of War," "Tracing the Footprints of the Burmese City," and "Plant Hunters and Others" take readers into the cultural landscape of Gaoligongshan, allowing them to appreciate the vicissitudes of history. In the "Mysterious" section, articles such as "The Green Fairy," "The Garden of Birds," and "Why Are Flowers So Red" attempt to explore the infinite mysteries of nature from the beauty of the mountains and rivers, using the lens of knowledge to peer into the wonders of nature.
