本書作者、高中生張一幟從小生活在加拿大。當(dāng)他回到中國后，對中國的歷史文化產(chǎn)生了濃厚的興趣，與父母游遍中國，并將自己的見聞寫了下來，形成了一本有趣有趣的英文游記。
本書分為五個(gè)主題：歷代都城、五岳、四瀆、雄偉長城、京城春花，詳細(xì)描述了小作者曾經(jīng)到過的長城關(guān)口、名山大川、歷史名城等以及他所了解到的有關(guān)歷史故事和文化知識(shí)，包含大量精美的圖片。從黃帝時(shí)期的傳說中的都城到清朝的北京，作者都一一進(jìn)行了探訪，跟隨作者在古都中行走，讀者仿佛也看到了這些城市的前世今生。小作者還看到不同風(fēng)格的寺廟中先人留下的信仰痕跡，在五岳中仰望高山，看到儒道佛和諧的共存，沿著四瀆行走，感慨現(xiàn)今科技在河流兩岸留下的印跡。在北京的春天里，小作者感受到時(shí)光的流逝，也更加珍惜美好的當(dāng)下。
在小作者眼中，中國山川美麗壯觀、多姿多彩，中國文化博大精深、淵遠(yuǎn)流長。小作者希望能盡自己的努力，將他眼中的中國描寫出來，讓全世界更多的人看見中國、了解中國、愛上中國。
多元文化成長背景的Z世代青年用腳步丈量中國的名山大川、古都名城，用不一樣的視角帶你感受中華文化的源遠(yuǎn)流長和璀璨光華。
