My days in England

From February to June 2012, I worked at the China Daily's London bureau in the United Kingdom. During the four months, I found London to be a city one never gets bored with. It has a rich cultural heritage and fantastic attractions. It is also a city of contradictions, and it changes depending on the angle from which you view it. I tried my best to record what caught my eyes with my pen, and those beautiful moments will always be in my mind. There are many bridges over the Thames, the most famous of which is surely Tower Bridge. I enjoyed looking out at it. It's like an old man quietly watching London as it changes. London is justifiably famous for its parks, some of which are even a little wild, with deer grazing and foxes stalking the nearby streets at night. Bold squirrels expect food from passers-by. Some of the parks seem like a garden leading to the castle of Sleeping Beauty. But the gardens rarely sleep for long as people will relax on the grass or play on a sunny summer's day. Some of my most memorable moments were spent in the English countryside. When I close my eyes, I can still see the rolling hills with their green grass and scattered groups of sheep and cattle, and I can still feel the spring breeze and smell the sweet fresh air.
