Speak of the Northeast, what’s your first impression?  

提起东北，你第一印象是什么呢？  

作为一个土生土长的南方人，我和我身边的小伙伴们，说起东北时，无不露出欣喜，向往的表情，信誓旦旦一定要去东北看看，蓝蓝的天，白白的雪。本来计划是想要冬天去看雪的，结果朋友结婚，这个季节就去了，虽然没有白白的雪，但是蓝蓝的天也很知足。跟我一起来看看吧。 

My friends and I were born and grew up in South of China, so every time we talk about the Northeast, all of us become very excited and wishing one day could visit that place, to see the blue sky and the white snow. I plan to visit there in winter, but plan changes because of a friend’s wedding ceremony. Although there’s no snow in this season, the blue sky is enough. Follow me, I will show you.  

朋友带我去的第一个地方是亚洲最大的露天煤矿，抚顺人称之为“大坑”，有一百多年的历史了，设置了东西两个观赏点，是免费参观的。因为时间比较紧，没有下去，只是站在矿坑的边缘，望下去，有一种惊异的感觉，下面因为很深，都看不到底，而另一端有一种烟雾缭绕的感觉，矿道层层叠叠，犹如梯田一般。无法想象这般雄伟奇观是当初人力所为。 

The first place we visit is the biggest open-cast coal in Asia; local people in Fushun call it “Big Pit”, it started from 1901, till now, it’s over 100 years. No entrance ticket needed for this place, and there are two perfect visiting spot. We do not go down the pit since we do not have tight schedule, but only stand in the side; we can feel the grand of it. The other side seems stand in the smog, and can never see the bottom, the mine tunnels are cross bedding, just like terrace. Can you imagine this magnificent landscape is made by humans? 

我们去的第二个地方就是有名的萨尔浒风景区了，“萨尔浒”是满语，翻译过来是“木橱”的意思，我想大致就是这里的森林很茂密，物产很丰富吧。以前也叫大伙房水库风景区，因为它就是一个水库，是沈阳，抚顺两大城市居民重要的饮用水源地，所以水库就通俗易懂了。这里真的很漂亮，蓝天白云，依山傍水，空气也格外清新。而且不用门票，是免费的哦！山上有一个通道是可以下去水库的，在那边拍照，好像有一种在海边的感觉呢。

The second place to go is the famous Sarhu Landscape, “Sarhu” is a language of Manchu, which means“Cupboard”, I think that means the trees and other natural products are rich here. In the past times, it also has another name “Dahuofang Reservoir”, because it indeed a reservoir, it is the important drinking water source for citizens in Shenyang and Fushun. It is really a holiday paradise, and no entrance ticket at all, you can enjoy the mountain, the water and the sky. There’s a path down to the side of reservoir, the pictures taken there look like in the seaside.   

从萨尔浒风景区回来已经是晚饭时间啦，我们去川婆婆吃的。最后一盘是送的红酒雪梨， 本来我是不爱吃梨的，但是这个红酒雪梨还蛮好吃的呢.  

It is super time when we finish our tour; we eat in “Chuanpopo” restaurant.  

晚上8点，我们去了月牙岛生态公园看音乐喷泉，抚顺人民还是很会生活的。

8 pm in the night, we go to the Natural Park of Crescent Island to enjoy the music fountain.
