Davenport Pier
I really did not expect to see such a magnificent sight in the United States!A big stone gate stands on the beach,Chain swingHanging on it, the waves rushed in.
In fact, at the beginning, the angle I looked at was here, above the cliff. It used to be a pier, but the piers left after the plank road was abandoned have become like this.
AndonlyThe long way to go is like this:
Must rely onPulled by a ropeTo get down...I wandered on the cliff for a long time, carefully observing how others went down, and found that it should be done, but I must proceed carefully.
It’s also difficult to get on the swing. This swing is still quite high. It’s probably a bit difficult to support it with my hands. I can only rely on my long legs. Another difficulty is that the waves are sometimes big enough.Drown people, Several people got wet.
thenFind a low tideWhen I went up quickly.It looks pretty simple, right? Come and see friends.So, if you want to go, you must be safe, andPrepare a suit.To be honest, it's pretty beautiful to take photos when there are no waves~
Just take some photos and rest and go up. You have to climb up like this. It feels easier than when you go down.
But this attraction requires some physical strength, please everyoneDo what you can, It’s no shame to just look down on the cliff, many people do.But there are still more awesome people, here is oneCliff walk tightrope, Tut tut!

There was an American drama called"Big Little Lies"(Big and small lie) It was shot at 17Miles. Starring by Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman and Shailene Woodley, although it is about housewives, the storyline and scenery are very beautiful, I recommend everyone to take a look~

Carmel Town
Although Highway One is winding along the coast, California’s beaches are mostly cliffs, black sand and rocks, and always have a strong fishy smell. However, Carmel’s beaches are completely different. It is said to be CaliforniaBest beachOne is the exquisite milky white beach, where you can see whales if you are lucky, and you can see the blue sky and white clouds if you are not lucky.
The sea is the end of the town. You can lie down on the street and take a stroll. Each store in Carmel Downtown is exquisite and distinctive, and every alley is quiet and pleasant.
There are many galleries here. It is said that Zhang Daqian has lived here for 32 years, But! The first time I went there, I asked the staff at the visitor center, but they didn’t know...so some friends who know Zhang Daqian’s former residence told me the address~
Recommend a French restaurant next to Carmel Plaza to everyone:Patisserie Boissiere Restaurant.
Eating is mediocre to the Chinese stomach, but desserts are realtoo deliciousNo, unlike American desserts, which are very sweet, this one is called Josephine, which is a bit like Napoleon.
The cool thing is that coffee is not American, and latte has no garnishes, but there are flowers on every table. Italian pride and romance are on the table.
The fireplace is also the place of warmth. The photos of the two locations illustrate usWent twice a day, The Plaza next door is also easy to visit.
Tour time: 1 hour-3 hours
Address: Mission Between Ocean and 7th, Carmel, CA93921
Bixby bridge
The real beauty starts from Carmel all the way south,The photos of Qianlu Bay are all in vain. becauseWhen it comes to Bixby Bridge, it is the bridge, and when it comes to Big Sur, the sea is the sea.
The bridge was opened in 1932. Since then, the residents of Big Sur can finally contact the outside world in winter
Standing on the bridge and looking down, I can't help but sigh the greatness of mankind.
The car can be parked on both sides of the highway, get off the car and walk on the bridge. I tried it, and I was shocked when I reached the first big solid pillar. Because the car was windy and the whole bridge was shaking, and I saw someone sitting on the bridge. While chatting and drinking coffee, the American people are so bold and interesting!
Tour time: half an hour
Address:Bixby Creek Bridge, CA-1, Monterey, CA93940
Big Sur
Enter Big Sur, infinite beauty and ecstasy. that'sUnparalleledThe coastline! Is there an illusion in Australia?
Take a photo with your feet on the edge of the cliff, the beach is indeed a bit cold!
There are many pastures around, and the cows are fat and hairy.
Continue to drive forward. I don’t remember why I entered a valley. There is a hotel calledRiver Inn.The backyard was a mountain stream, and the temperature immediately dropped, but the sun shone on the top of the mountain and reflected in the water, shimmering.
The ice cream truck in the forest is deeply loved by children.
Drinking beer is loved by adultssitChat in the stream, There is a dog to accompany, which is really pleasant.
Out of the valley.Suddenly, when it was sunset, I found an open space and sat on the trunk, drinking hot ginger tea, watching the sunset.
Here, my trip is generally over. Friends who came to the United States to play continue to move forward. We are going back to the Bay Area to prepare for work on Monday.
In fact, there isDanish Town.Purple beach(Pfeiffer Beach)They are all pretty good, especially the purple beach is not available in other places~
