Today, most people focus more on the destination of travelling and what can be seen in the destination. Flight saves lots of time that we spent on the travelling from one place to another before. But are we really happy about it? Someone said that: Life is like travelling, you don’t have to care about where is the destination, what you see and experience and the mood you get from them during the travelling are more important than the destination. I don’t like to travel by flying because it shortens the most important part of a trip.
There was a Chinese idiom which can be translated to “Read ten thousand books, travel ten thousand miles” or “reading lots of books doesn’t beat travelling to all places”. Ancient Chinese saw travelling as a way of learning or an extension of reading books. During a travel, you can not only see the beautiful landscape but also learn by meeting all kinds of people and things.
Travel can be a way of escaping from the pressure of daily life temporarily. People may get energetic again about life after travelling. It is a good way of getting relaxed. Movement is one of the most important things of travel. I agree that if video travel offers infinite destinations without the expenditure of movement-the paradox of going without leaving-then tourism reverses the logic. Video travel has many advantages such as: elastic, low cost and time-saving. However, it cannot take place of traditional travel because people always seek authentic things. Video travel may stimulate people’s desire of going to the place rather than reduce it.
