Chapter 35 Fashion study tour + tour = tourism?

A trip + travel = travel? In the past, the word "travel" and the word "you" were always used alone, embodying the sorrow of leaving home. "Mountain Xiao traveler goes, the sky is high and autumn is sad." "Floating clouds cover the day, and wanderers don't care about it."It is really indescribably desolate to be alone, hidden in the boundless nature. On the other hand, Zhuangzi "swimmed on the moats and beams", and Li Bai "loved to travel to famous mountains all his life", and the word "you" gives people a sense of freedom and ease.

Perhaps, the interweaving of these two kinds of experience is the real situation of life.We are far away from home, relatives, business, and everything we are used to every day. We are surrounded by strange things and feel lost.This "loss" makes us sad, but at the same time it gives us a sense of relief, because we find that the lost things are not what we need, and we cling to them in the past, but lost more valuable things.In the blending with nature, the narrow nostalgia was purified.Boarding and roaming deepen our understanding of life: we are homeless, but we have eternal destination.

 I don’t know when the words “travel” and “you” came together.As a result, modern people are no longer sad or carefree, but just complete one of their busy affairs -- "travel" with peace of mind and haste. So, please allow me to say: I am a traveler, a wanderer, but I am not a "tourist". 2 Modern Tourism  Tourism is a product of modern commercial civilization.In this year when "all people are businessmen" and price increases are common, perhaps I have no right to complain that tourism has also been incorporated into the commercial track and has become one of the most expensive consumptions.Sadly, people spend their money and still don't get real enjoyment.

Usually in a hurry to make money, save enough money, go on a trip! However, the tourist places all over the world are not full of shouts to attract customers, fake and adventurous entertainment facilities, and crowds of people who join in the fun? Poorly spent all the money amidst the noise , dragged his tired body home, and re-entered the hasty money-making activities. All meaning resides in the process.However, modern civilization is a civilization that is eager for quick success and instant benefit. It only seeks the result and despises the process.People hold tourist maps in their hands, carry cameras on their shoulders, follow the maps, search for the places indicated on the maps, click a few times on a certain peak or a certain pavilion, leave evidence of "visit here", and then leave contentedly .

 Whenever I see group tours holding small flags, crowds, and pinching the clock, I feel stupid.Modern people are not spiritual enough to face nature alone.In the squeeze between people, nature disappears. Yes, we have tourism.But where is the quiet intoxication? Where is the real spiritual pleasure? Where is the communion with nature? Three Celebrities and Scenic Spots The famous are not necessarily good, and the unknown are not necessarily bad.As with people, so with nature.  People are afraid of being famous, and scenery is also afraid of being famous.Once a person becomes famous, he no longer belongs to himself, and admirers come to visit him one after another, which makes him lose his peace of mind and the joy of sitting opposite his second or third close friends.Once the scenery is famous, it will be reduced to the mortal world, and the tourists will gather, making it lose the tranquil environment and the comfort of being appreciated by a true bosom friend.

When the world flocks to celebrities and places of interest one after another, I only love sneaking into back alleys and looking for unknown people and landscapes. 1988.10
