My hometown——Ninghai

? People often say, "There are many good things outside, but they are not as good as my hometown." Indeed, my hometown, Ninghai, is also very beautiful and rich.

? We have many famous scenic spots in Ninghai: such as Tianmingshan Hot Spring in Nanxi Village, Shenzhen, which has nearly 10,000 acres of forest resources. The mountain flowers are blooming in spring, the summer is refreshing and pleasant, the fields are filled with sweet-scented osmanthus in autumn, and you can catch wild game in winter. It’s like a fairyland on earth. Its hot spring water is colorless, tasteless, odorless, slightly delicate, and can be called the best water quality in the world. I took a dip last time and I almost didn’t want to get up. It was so comfortable! Therefore, there is an endless stream of tourists coming to visit. It is indeed the most famous hot spring in China. There are also the East Zhejiang Grand Canyon, East China Sea Yunding, Qiantong Ancient Town, etc. Countless. My favorite is the Stone Village in Xujiashan. The people in that village are all named Xu. There is not a single house in the village with reinforced concrete. They are all made of wood and stone. We often go there for leisure vacations and experience mountain village life.

? The scenery in Ninghai is good, but there is one thing even better. That's something that people praise repeatedly when it comes to mentioning it. Yes, that's Ninghai's specialty. The specialties of Ninghai include: green mochi, baked potatoes, Changjie razor clams, Wanghai tea, yellow blue crabs, native chicken, white loquats, etc. There are too many to mention. If I were to tell them all, I would probably kill someone. However, although each place in Ninghai has its own merits, there is one thing that is most perfect when everyone comes together: Ninghai’s seafood. Since Ninghai is located close to the sea, seafood is available all year round. Over time, the habit of eating seafood has been developed. Our family now feels uncomfortable without eating seafood for a day. Dad often goes out to sea to play and fish. Every time there would be news that he had caught another fish. Then he brought a lot back for us to eat. There are yellow croakers, razor clams, prawns, moray eels, and many more that I can’t even name. When I travel, I often think about my hometown. Of course, it’s the yellow croaker noodles from my hometown. I will never forget this smell.

? Ninghai is still a treasure land of Feng Shui. Every time natural disasters such as typhoons and earthquakes never come to our Ninghai, it is very strange.

? "At the dusk of March in Guichou, I left the west gate from Ninghai. The clouds dispersed and the sun was bright. People were happy with the mountains and the scenery." This is the first sentence in the opening chapter of "Xu Xiake's Travels". Since then, Ninghai has become the birthplace of China Tourism Day. On April 10, 2011, the State Council approved May 19 every year as "China Tourism Day". ?

? Our Ninghai is the hometown of many celebrities, such as Rou Shi, Pan Tianshou, Fang Xiaoru, Lu Yuanzhi and so on. Ninghai is really a place of outstanding people! I love my hometown, Ninghai!
