A Weekend Trip

On Saturday morning, my family and I drove to the West Jiuhua Mountain scenic spot, which is a 4-a level scenic spot in Dabie mountain, and also the nearest mountain to my city.

It is about 200 kilometers from here and the whole trip takes about two and a half hours.

When we arrived there, it was almost lunchtime. We booked a hotel first, then ate lunch at a small restaurant that was at the entrance of the hotel. It's worth mentioning that we booked the Starry Bubble House this time.

After lunch, we returned to the hotel and had an afternoon nap. I felt it was very hot inside the bubble house although I had already turned on the air conditioner.

I guess the reason is that the bubble house is really like a greenhouse, so it is easier to collect heat. However, it will be very comfortable if you sleep in it during winter.

The bubble house is made of transparent plastic. Inside it, there are several pieces of slidable sunshade curtains. At night, I can open the curtain at the ceiling and see stars throughout the ceiling.

At around 3 pm that afternoon, we visited Longjingxidi, which is also a 4-a scenic spot. It's not far from the hotel. On the spot, there are many unknown trees, bushes, streams, waterfalls and canyons. The mountain paths are very steep, sometimes the paths allow only one person to go through.

We returned from this place at around 6 pm. They provide tourist small train service for people to go into or out of the spot, but tourists have to pay for it.

Next morning, we left the hotel and visited a mountain peak. What attracted us to visit the mountain is that there was a big tea pot sculpture on the peak when we drove through there the previous afternoon.

When we got there, we climbed up the mountain and we finally got on the peak. The air on the peak was fresh and cool. Looking around from the peak, I could see very far away and the views were very beautiful. The mountain was a tea mountain - it was full of tea trees planted by the local peasants.

We stayed at the mountain peak for about thirty minutes and we took some pictures. Then we went down the mountain and drove home.

Corrections

On Saturday morning, my family and I drove to the West Jiuhua Mountain scenic spot, which is a [4-a level] scenic spot [in] Dabie mountain, and also the nearest mountain to my city.

Is “Jihua Mountain” the name of a mountain, or just part of the name of a scenic spot on Dabie mountain? One mountain cannot be “in” another mountain. It could be “in the foothills of” a larger mountain, or it could be “in” a mountain range (山脈).

I don’t know what “4-a level” means. It sounds like a four-story building, but knowing China, I suppose it refers to some sort of ranking or rating system, right.

It is about 200 kilometers from here and the whole trip takes, about two and a half hours. by car.

“The whole trip” could mean round-trip (來回).

When we arrived there, it was almost lunchtime.

We booked a hotel first, then ate lunch at a small restaurant that was at the entrance of the hotel.

It's worth mentioning that we booked the Starry Bubble House this time.

Is that a bathhouse? If not, say, “The hotel was called the Starry Bubble House,” or just add the name of the hotel to the previous sentence: “We booked a hotel first, the Starry Bubble House, then ate….”

After lunch, we returned to the hotel and had an afternoon nap.

I felt it was very hot inside the bubble house although I had already turned on the air conditioner.

Ah, I see bubble house must’ve been the name of your hotel.

I guess the reason is that the bubble house is really like a greenhouse, so it is easier to collect heat.heats up easily.

However, it willould be very comfortable if you were to sleep in it during winter.

suggestion: …it would be very comfortable to sleep in in winter

The bubble house is made of transparent plastic.

At night, I canould open the curtain at the ceiling and see stars throughout the ceiling.

Present tense isn’t right, since you’d already left the place when you wrote this.

At around 3 pm that afternoon, we visited Longjingxidi, which is also a 4-a scenic spot.

OK, “4-a” must be some sort of ranking system. How does it work? Who decides the ranking of each spot?

It's not far from the hotel.

The West Jiuhua Mountain is a part of the Dabie mountain. Dabie mountain is the general name of the mountain. It has many different peaks and each peak has their own name and people also call them xxx mountain.

The Chinese government at different administrative levels has a department called the Cultural and Tourism Bureau. It ranks scenic spots from 1-a to 5-a. 5-a is the top.

It's worth mentioning that we booked the Starry Bubble House this time.

The name of the hotel is the Gushi County Egret Lake Homestay. It has at least three different types of rooms and the Starry Bubble House is one of the three.

The name of the hotel is The Gushi County Egret Lake Homestay. But it is in fact not a Homestay, but a hotel in the name of Homestay.

Every scenic spot is ranked by the national bureau of cultural and tourism.

I would at least change “in” to “on”: on Dabie Mountain
