With the deepening of the construction of "Beautiful China", tourism and photography have gradually become an important way to showcase China's natural scenery and cultural charm. This exhibition brings together outstanding photographic works from all over the country, and each photo is like a window, opening up a new understanding of the beauty of China. The photographers used their skills to capture every detail from the scenery of the northern country to the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, from the bustling city to the remote countryside. Whether it is majestic mountains and rivers, vast grasslands, ancient villages, or modern cities, they have all been frozen into eternal pictures by photographers.
