It restarts your childlike curiosity about everything in the world. Before that, I think the best time is on the road. All non-daily feelings are fresh, exciting, thrilling and impressive. But as long as you are interested in observing nature, you can get fresh experiences every day without traveling far. Ordinary walks near home may also bring surprises. The natural world is so vast. There are always some beautiful things and wonderful details in plants, animals, rocks, soil, clouds... You have never noticed them. In other words, nature provides endless possibilities for aesthetics and exploration. As Thoreau, the pioneer of American nature literature, said: \"Most natural phenomena... are beyond our lifetime. The beauty of nature we can see is only the part we are willing to appreciate, exactly... People can only see what they care about.\" Becoming a natural observer means that you will never be bored.

In spring, the mountain wildflowers bloom, with alpine ash, wild roses, Japanese spirea, viburnum, pyracantha and various grass flowers blooming along the way. On the hillside during the tea break, azaleas bloom deep in the forest. As summer approaches, insects become active and occasionally surprise people.
