(Close to Faraway): Can Google Maps Replace Travel? Ridiculous!
From birth, my son has always been described as resembling me. He's very much so, to the point where I feel embarrassed to deny it. But when it comes to having me praise his genetic influence, I find myself hesitant and tongue-tied. Let me tell you one thing,I wish I could have stepped into every corner of the world, and he, saying that with Google Maps tourism is already meaningless,
With Google Maps, tourism really has no meaning anymore?Seven's edited 'Close to Faraway,' the main piece is Anne's 'Flower Fades' (formerly Mount), which tells the story of two women who suffered setbacks in the realm of two genders and retreated gracefully. When reading 'Flower Fades' on the high-speed train to Nanjing, 'The Garden, so vast, empty and desolate,' I silently agreed, 'Seeing the street end is the Eight, the white lanterns swayed in the night,' just like the feelings of and when they first saw the Eight, it all came back…As for the thirty-three at the end of the article, we visited it twice, and we couldn't get in at the entrance. We lay on the fence, straining to look in, regretting that we couldn't get in at the thirty-three's fence, it felt like we were still lying on the thirty-three's fence…—Because we went to Kyoto twice, and almost walked across the entire Kyoto district thanks to a daily bus ticket of 500,Reading stories about Kyoto, there's a familiar, homely joy.
Seven's own 'Yellow Dusk Gatherer' also mentions many places we've been to,Like DuPont Circle in Washington. Even for a traveler like me who has only been to the Eastern United States, being able to take the subway to DuPont Circle is extraordinary. DuPont Circle is a famous gay community? I don't know, but I clearly remember when we sat in the heart garden, we were surprised by the men or women rushing past, and there were quite a few obviously strange people. Now, encountering Seven's detailed descriptions, the familiar joy of chatting comes back to me,
Reading other people's travel accounts, they describe places I have not been to. Reading is the biggest difference: those who have been can describe them in detail; those who haven't, they are looking at Western mirrors through the window. The difference is not a frame of Google Maps can fill it!
However, I like to watch,Especially Wang's 'East of the Hadson River, North of Venice,' this writer works in New York, and because her project in the Italian town of Venice north of the Hadson River, she often 'falls' into that foreign land, which may be impossible for a traveler to reach in their lifetime. She eats, drinks, and plays in her spare time, and she connects herself with a place through her writing, making it colorful,Yes,
Seven's edited 'Close to Faraway' is not just a collection of travel accounts, but rather a collection of emotional gathering. So, like Chen's 'Our Only Trip,' there isn't a specific destination, but the writing about the intimate and resentful relationship between him and his mother is very moving. It's also because the author uses the exotic land to shake off the apprehension of returning home, and the outpouring of words is irresistible,Chen's 'The Queen's Hand: Exploring Rajasthan, India' is an exception.
This is a travel account that we are familiar with, allowing readers to explore with the author's guidance, observe the scenery and understand the author's knowledge transmission and Jiangshan's point. Even when writing about the details of the king and queen's regret for the prince's defeat in battle, leading to their self-immolation, Chen's emotion is irrepressible, but it's always fleeting, unlike the writing of and , after the scenery receded, and the seven emotions and six desires were expressed in their writing,
So, when wondering why Chen's 'The Queen's Hand: Exploring Rajasthan, India' was included in this collection, I thought about Seven's purpose. In my opinion, reading any text is without boundaries of expression,
