Shuyang, a university student taking up Journalism, said she chose to send me this card because she read that the Philippines has no winter. She'd like for me to see the lovely snow-covered pine trees of Mt. Huang (Huangshan).
Huangshan, which literally translates to yellow mountain, is a UNESCO world heritage site located in the Anhui Province in eastern China. Due to its enchanting beauty, the mountain has become a frequent subject of traditional Chinese artwork, paintings, and literature. The great Tang dynasty poet, Li Bai, was so mesmerized by its alluring charm that he was naturally prompted to write a poem about his magical experience in the mountains.
Oh, how I'd love to see and experience the magic of the China's famous yellow mountain one day! Perhaps I, too, shall be inspired to write a lovely poem about Mt. Huang.
Xie xie, Shuyang! Congratulations on your upcoming graduation!
Wishing you happy journeys...
