Luckily, there are some outdoor activities which don't involve breaking sweat. River rafting Hot summer weather and cool water-what a perfect match! River rafting can be both scenic and exciting. When the raft follows a gentle stream, the views of the countryside or valley is like a traditional Chinese painting. And when you enter white water where the riverbed creates a natural roller coaster, you feel a rush of adrenaline(肾上腺素). Paddle your raft to the riverbank to have a picnic or barbecue which will taste best when you are starving. Where to find: River rafting trips are usually on offer in mountainous or valley regions such as the Three Gorges. Tips: Wear a helmet and life jacket at all times; bring enough sunscreen; and bring lots of water. Caving People say that the only naturally air-conditioned place in summer is a big cave. It is true. Cave tours featuring light shows are old hat. Now it's time to wear a lamp no your helmet like a mineworker to explore caves in darkness. Exploring unknown caverns and navigating underground rivers is what makes caving so thrilling. Plus, caving can be a very healthy sport, for the oxygen level is usually higher so basically you are having an oxygen spa as the bonus. |
