Recently, some citizens have been seen cycling in scenic areas and parks such as Xiaokang River, Nanhu Botanical Garden, and Phoenix Park in Gaomi City. With the growing environmental awareness among citizens, more and more people are choosing low-carbon travel options such as cycling and walking, as these methods are both economical and eco-friendly. As the dual holidays approach, many citizens have started planning their travel routes and modes for the holiday period. “Low-carbon local tourism” is gradually becoming a new leisure fashion.
Family cycling tours to scenic spots
“I have a car at home, but considering that driving out not only makes parking difficult but also consumes fuel. After thinking it over, our whole family decided to cycle instead, killing two birds with one stone by enjoying the trip and staying fit.” said Mr. Li, who lives in Kangzhuang Community, Liquan Subdistrict, Gaomi City. Since it was the weekend, he took his wife and children to visit various open scenic spots around Gaomi City. Unlike previous outings, the Li family’s mode of transport this time was exclusively bicycles.
According to Mr. Li, through the tour he noticed that Gaomi’s urban development has changed rapidly in recent years. The various scenic spots have become more and more beautiful, especially Phoenix Park, Xiaokang River, and Nanhu Botanical Garden, which are so captivating that they have become popular destinations for family outings on weekends and holidays.
Low-carbon local tourism becomes a trend
The reporter learned that, like Mr. Li, more and more Gaomi citizens are beginning to favor traveling by bicycle or on foot. Because this mode of travel is both economical and environmentally friendly, “low-carbon local tourism” is gradually becoming a new leisure fashion.
It is reported that scenic areas and parks such as Xiaokang River, Nanhu Botanical Garden, and Phoenix Park in Gaomi City have seen large numbers of visitors. Xiaokang River Scenic Area, thanks to its beautiful scenery and well-managed operations, has become a highly favored spot among tourists. Many locals accompany out-of-town relatives to enjoy the area, and many newlywed couples have strolled hand-in-hand along the river. At Nanhu Botanical Garden, many visitors take the opportunity to teach their children about plants and flowers while sightseeing. Additionally, Phoenix Park is mostly frequented by young parents with their children, where families enjoy rides on the Ferris wheel and watch animal performances, having a wonderful time together.
It is understood that in addition to several major theme parks, there are also more than 20 small parks and squares scattered across the streets of Gaomi City. These places have also become popular leisure spots for residents, who often head to the street squares after meals. “Taking a walk, chatting, listening to music, dancing—relaxing the mood and refreshing the spirit, all the day’s fatigue and worries disappear in no time,” said Ms. Li, a resident.
Go low-carbon even during the National Day holiday
“The National Day holiday is coming soon, and we don’t plan to travel far. We’re preparing to visit some scenic spots within Gaomi City with our child,” said Mr. Wang, a resident. Because traveling to other places takes too much time on the road and can be tiring, they decided against going far. The Wang family is also planning to cycle together as a family, opting for a low-carbon journey.
It is reported that to welcome visitors from all over, the management departments of Gaomi’s scenic areas are continuously improving service standards and striving to create landscape environments that citizens love. Meanwhile, staff from the Xiaokang River Management Office in Gaomi City also remind the public to pay attention to personal safety and take good care of their belongings during outings.
