The first person in human history to travel around the world on foot
His name was Pan Dengming, the first person in human history to travel around the world on foot. Holding the belief of "wiping away the shame of the 'Sick Man of East Asia' and seeking glory for the world," he left China in the summer of 1930 and returned to Shanghai in 1937, taking a total of eight years. He visited over 40 countries and met with heads of state and notable figures from more than 20 nations. He paid homage to the poet Rabindranath Tagore, was received by Mahatma Gandhi, had Hitler paint his portrait, and was given a gold medal personally by Roosevelt... In 1937, to support the war of resistance, he generously donated the $100,000 given to him by overseas Chinese for his travels to aid the cause.

Driving a Chevrolet Captiva on the Sichuan-Tibet Highway — A Story from the Spring of 2013
In March 2013, during the blooming season of spring, a long-held aspiration kept welling up in my heart — driving my Chevrolet Captiva into Tibet. On March 24th, after some basic preparations, I set off from Chengdu and finally embarked on this distant journey. After four days of trekking, I arrived in Lhasa on the evening of March 27th. Aside from a five-hour traffic jam on the Tongmai section between Bomi and Linzhi, everything went very smoothly. Since I had already read plenty of so-called travel guides about the Sichuan-Tibet Highway (Route 318) online, I won’t go into unnecessary detail. Instead, I’ll briefly summarize the performance of my trusty Captiva before diving into the photos. However, as I was solo — driving, photographing, and rushing all at once — I was utterly swamped, so the number and quality of photos are limited. My apologies for that.
May Day Holiday Trip — 4-Day Road Trip to the Beautiful Lugu Lake
Day 1 Chengdu–Xichang (Approximately 440 km, about 6 hours) Meet at 6:30 AM (yes, it’s early, but as the organizer, I only ask one thing: if you say you’re coming, be on time and keep your word. We don’t want to keep everyone waiting… which might ruin the mood before we even start. Plus, the Chengya Expressway tends to get jam-packed during the holiday, so an early departure helps!)
