40個超美的地方，值得一去

文章開頭就說了，一般外國人熟悉的都是北京、上海這些知名的地方。

Almost all of us are familiar with China's great man-made attractions: The Forbidden City in Beijing. The Terracotta Warriors of Xi'an. Shanghai's skyscraper forest in Pudong.
我們大多數人都對了不起的人工景觀比較熟悉。比如：北京紫禁城、西安兵馬俑、上海浦東林立的摩天大樓。

For a country of its massive size and varied geography, however, it's surprising how relatively few people outside China appreciate the extent of the country's other attractions, many of them natural wonders to rival any in the world.

令人驚訝的是，只有相對較少的一部分外國人懂得欣賞其他地方的景緻。對於這個幅員遼闊、地形多樣的國家來說，很多自然景觀都可匹敵世界上任何地方。
