A Mysterious Hot-air Balloon Tour

刘子愉

Egypt is an ancient country. Last summer holiday，I visited it and explored the famous place Luxor（卢克索），the birthplace of Egyptian civilization（文明）. I took a hot-air balloon tour and unveiled the mystery of Egypt.

We drove to the starting point of the balloon shortly after the dawn（黎明） of the day. In the distance，I felt excited. The whole balloon was like a big ball full of gas. The balloon was hanging over 1000 meters high，and the whole of Luxor was in sight. We saw the majestic Pharaohs（法老）tomb，the eye-opening（令人驚奇的） Karnak temple（卡纳克神庙）and the tender green sugarcane（甘蔗）field.

This trip to Egypt still keeps fresh and vivid in my memory. I want to be a traveler in the future and visit all kinds of beautiful sceneries of different countries.
