REFLECTION
After 3 months long journey, i learn a lot of cultural knowledge. One place identity is not originality from the place but the people and events, People create culture and history written down after era changes. We need to preserve the old architecture style and also the old days cultural activities for education purpose. New era people should respect and understand the history of every places they visit. Hoping to visit more place in the future and also preserve the cultural things as much as possible. Thank you.
