A climbing experience with our team

We decided to climb Tiantang Peak in Guangzhou.  Tiantang Peak is the highest peak in Guangzhou with an altitude of 1210 meters.Tiantang in Chinese means heaven, it is a beautiful name which means this peak is the closest place to heaven.

We started at 8:00 clock in the morning by a car and arrive the foot of the mountain about 9:00 am. And it is the first time that I climb a mountain, and it is a challenge for me certainly, while good news is the weather that day is really good, no rain, with a little sun.

Mountain climbing means physical exertion. I almost have to rest for a long time after I climbed for a while. For a person who is climbing for the first time, you must not be reluctant. After all, the heart has been violently beating and will bring a heavy burden to it. When I climbed to more than half of the mountain, I realized that the water might not be enough, so I consciously saved water, but when I reached the top of the mountain, I still didn’t hold back, and I drank it. I am very grateful to the teammates for their relief, otherwise it would be too bad. Water shortage is really a very serious problem.

After reaching the top of the mountain, there are no green plants on the ground. They are all some yellow grass. But the sky is very basket, the wind is very big, very comfortable

When I went down the mountain, I found that my sweat was blown dry, but my face was able to touch the salt like sand. This feeling is very bad. I think next time I should remember to bring some functional drinks to supplement the nutrition. As the saying goes, going up the mountain is easy and it is difficult to go down the mountain. This time I really realized it. Because the hillside is still steep, I have been struggling to support some of the physical strength, but fortunately, I still insisted on completing the journey.
