My dream when I started reading historical books have always been to travel to those places with rich history. Now that I am working here in China as a teacher, I told myself that someday I'll go to those UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE sites here in China. Thanks trip.com for the convenience of booking my hotel, airlines, and fast trains to these wonderful destinations. Trip.com have made my travel goals a lot more easier. 👏🎉❤️
