Yu Shan (于山) Scenic Area in Fuzhou, China

ByCat 30 July 202029 July 2020

Yu Shan (于山) Scenic Area in central Fuzhou, China is named after the Yu Yue historical tribe. This quaint spot has several temples and pavillions as well as viewpoints overlooking different parts of Fuzhou. I really enjoyed visiting this little oasis nestled in the city proper.

Happy travels!

ByCat 4 August 2015

You know when you’re getting close to Capitol Reef National Park when all the landscape changes from pale yellow to deep red and orange hues.

ByCat 1 October 201626 June 2020

Some say that if they ever attended this school, they would study in this hall every day. The high ceilings and antique style are reminiscent of the Great Hall featured in the Harry Potter movies and other libraries at prominent universities in England. To the students of the University of Washington, this is the Graduate…

Southwest Road Trip: Day 7: Arches National Park – Windows Section
ByCat 10 August 2015

After an exhausting day at Capitol Reef, Canyonlands, and spending the day hiking both Landscape Arch and Delicate Arch, we decided that it would be well worth the lack of sleep to catch a sunrise hike at the Windows section before heading back to Las Vegas.
