男子骑车带84岁母亲游西藏

54-year-old Song Jianhui and his 84-year-old mother arrived safely at their home in southwest China's Sichuan Province on July 1 after a 17-day trip that saw them traveling 5,000 kilometers to Tibet Autonomous Region by a motorcycle. 

Song from Leshan, Sichuan Province, loves outdoor sports, and is especially good at swimming and motorcycling. 

One day in early June, he asked his mother if there was a place she wanted to go, and his mother answered, "I’d love to go to Tibet."

After making preparations, they left their home on June 16, and arrived in Lhasa on the afternoon of June 21. 

"Mum was very happy and excited about stepping on this pure land," said Song. 

During their two-day stay in Lhasa, they visited famous sites such as Jokhang Monastery and the Potala Palace.

"It was beautiful! Beautiful scenery, with good air quality too!" the mother said. Even the amazing motorcycle trip had ended, the mother was still as excited as a child, said Song. 

"What else would make me happier than seeing my mother so happy?" 

"I love to travel everywhere on a motorcycle," said the mother. Next, she wants to visit northeast China.
