Fay: Oh, come on Jerry, you must be kidding.

Jerry: Yeah, I'm just pulling your leg. Actually, I'm intend to go to Guizhou Province.

Fay: Really? Why would you go there? It's not a very popular place.

Jerry: Exactly! It's not very popular, so it won't be too crowded. I enjoyed my trip to the Great Wall, but there were so many people.

Fay: I'm sure Guizhou won't be so crowded. But may be it‟s too hot in the summer?

Jerry: No, according to one of my students, it's very cool in the summer. He said it is "natural air conditioner".

Fay: Well, that sounds good. is there anything worth seeing in Guizhou?

Jerry: Sure! For one thing, there's the beautiful natural scenery. I'm sure you've heard of the Huang Guo Shu Waterfalls. There's also the Malinghe valley which is said to be surprisingly beautiful.

Fay: Yes, I have heard of Huang Guo Shu Pubu, There are mountains everywhere in Guizhou, even in the capital city Guiyang.But if you just climb mountains and hills, you‟ll get bored.

Jerry: Come on Fay, there's lots of things to do. I can go hiking in Qian Ling Park in Guiyang, and I know you've heard of Zunyi, a very historical city. It's where Mao Ze Dong became the leader of the Red Army.

Fay: when you describe it like that, it sounds really interesting! I'm sure you'll have fun, but let me give you some advice. Be sure to hold on to your wallet AND your heart!
