Thousands of years ago, in the south of ancient China, there lived Shennong, a man who had an ox（牛）head and human body. Seeing that local people were suffering from disease, he built ladders and houses on a high mountain to store hundreds of medical plants. To remember him, people named the place shennongjia.
The legend（传说）makes Shennongjia in Hubei an inviting place for tourists. Traveling there is a unique experience, as you can see sceneries of the four seasons from different altitudes.“When the bottom of the mountain is summer, the top is spring and while the foothill is autumn, the top is covered with ice,” local people say of the special climate of Shennongjia.
Shennongjia is also home to 5,000 species of animals and plants. Many animals in danger live there, such as the golden monkey, the clouded leopard and the Asian black bear.
One interesting and mysterious thing about Shennongjia is its legend of wild men. Some people once claimed that they saw big prints or big-foot creatures. Yet so far, scientists haven’t proved it is true and some say they are just bears.
The beautiful place has recently received a new title. On July 17, 2016, Shennongjia Forestry District was added to United Nations World Heritage list as a natural site. China now has 50 world heritage sites （遗址）. Second only to Italy in the world.

My first flight to Dubai was fine. No one sat next to me so it was a quiet flight. When I arrived in Dubai, I had to get another flight to Shanghai. It was worse than the first one because I had to talk to a boring man and the food was terrible. The good thing was the film Spiderman 2. It was great. I was also glad to sit next to the window.
I met my cousins as soon as I arrived in Shanghai. I really like the two of my cousins, Lucky and Heather. When I first arrived, I didn’t know how to get into the city centre. Lucky and Heather took me around Shanghai. They are very helpful. We were safe on our own.
Shanghai is beautiful and has many modern buildings. There aren’t as many museums as in my hometown, London, but the restaurants are wonderful. I enjoy traditional Shanghai food very much, such as Red—Cooked Chicken.
Now I’m having a great time in Shanghai with my aunt Pat, my cousins and my new friends.
