I still remember my trip to the mountains last year. When I got there, I saw tall trees and beautiful wild flowers. The birds were singing in the trees. The fresh air and the clear stream made me feel really relaxed.
There are many benefits of getting close to nature. It can help us relax and we can also learn about different plants and animals. So everyone should often go into nature. At the same time, we must protect the natural environment. Don't pick flowers or throw the litter everywhere.
Let's enjoy nature and protect it together!
