Recently, a "Pet" icon was added to the railway ticket booking page, signaling a comprehensive upgrade to the train pet transportation service. Starting October 15, the railway department expanded the service pilot for the third time, extending the pet transportation service from 10 trains on the Beijing-Shanghai line to 50 trains nationwide, covering popular routes such as Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Nanjing, and Shenzhen. After successfully purchasing a ticket, passengers can make a reservation through the "Pet Transportation" portal on the booking page, where they can view available spots in real time and fill out the transportation information. This service not only allows pets to travel on the same train as their owners but also introduces an innovative "solo travel" option, allowing pets to be transported alone. Shippers need to make a reservation 2–5 days in advance by calling the customer support hotline and must arrive at the station early on the day of travel to complete the check-in procedures, submitting a valid ID and an Animal Quarantine Certificate. Currently, 40 high-speed rail stations across the country can handle pet transportation, ensuring a smooth process from online reservation to offline drop-off. The upgrade of the high-speed rail pet transportation service provides pet owners with a more convenient and worry-free travel option, meeting the growing demand for pet travel.

In Hangzhou, I experienced the romance of a light snow at West Lake. As snowflakes gently fell, I stood on the Broken Bridge and gazed into the distance. The willow trees of Su Causeway were covered in a thin layer of snow, as if draped in a soft white veil, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene. In the distance, Leifeng Pagoda was partially hidden in the mist, adding a touch of mystery and poetry. Unlike the vast, sweeping snowscapes of Shaanxi, the snow at West Lake is light and graceful, dancing like willow catkins in the wind. It falls on the lake's surface, instantly melting into the ripples; it settles on the branches, forming crystal-clear silver threads, making even the chill feel elegant. Strolling along the lake, every step is a blend of snow and water, a moment to feel this unique tranquility and beauty. Such a scene brings not only surprise but also a sense of relaxation and comfort. Come to West Lake in Hangzhou and experience for yourself this light and romantic snow that is "like willow catkins rising with the wind," and let your soul be purified and uplifted by the scenery

The coolness of autumn is always something to look forward to. When the autumn wind blows, the forests are ablaze with color. While osmanthus and chrysanthemums may not have the vibrancy of spring flowers, they possess a unique elegance. The autumn waters are long and the autumn days are vast, just as Liu Yuxi said: "Since ancient times, autumn has been associated with sorrow and loneliness, but I say autumn days are better than spring mornings." On these days of high skies and light clouds, the autumn colors of Hangzhou's West Lake are gradually deepening. Here are a few recommended spots to check out the stunning autumn scenery: In late November, you can visit Beishan Street and the Liuhe Pagoda on Zhijiang Road to experience the charm of early autumn. In early December, Meijiawu, Lingyin Road, and the night maples at Leifeng Tower will display the splendid colors of late autumn. By mid-December, the Tea Museum, Yanggong Dike, and the "Green Water and Lotus" scenic area are even more breathtaking, as a caramel-colored scroll painting of West Lake slowly unfolds. While strolling through these places, visitors can not only admire the beauty of the colorful forests but also feel a sense of tranquility and romance. Come to West Lake in Hangzhou, visit these autumn attractions, and encounter a romance that belongs to autumn
