In the hot summer, how to escape the heat is indeed an unavoidable question for everyone.
I remember vividly the scene of swimming with my classmates in the outdoor swimming pool of the Harbin Institute of Technology Gymnasium.
Now look at myself in the photo, I look relaxed and content, very comfortable. There is an indescribable pleasure in being in the water.
The gymnasium of the school is right opposite the eighth house where we lived, and we pass by it many times every day. So I couldn't hold it any longer and wanted to go have a nice swim inside.
I am from the south and have always loved swimming. I always hope to spend those scorching days in the water.
In Northeast China, this is my first time to experience swimming, so it feels very fresh.
In the cool water, it is a bit cold and has a texture. This is the first time I feel the water. There was a burst of joy in my heart, after all, it was a comfortable swim against the water waves. Moreover, there are men, women, and children in the swimming pool. The sound of water splashing is constant, and everyone swims in their own swimming style. It is indeed a pleasure to be in it.
We were in the short pool area, fighting back and forth, chasing each other, and the water splashed Lao Gao. Sometimes there were bursts of laughter. We swim breaststroke for a while and freestyle for a while, alternating and switching as we please.
When you get tired from swimming, you change to the backstroke position. While resting, you look up at the sky. You don’t have to think about anything, just floating on the water. I saw tall and thick willow trees surrounding the swimming pool, clouds floating above my head, but the sky was so deep.

Suddenly I remembered what Zheng Banqiao, a man of the Qing Dynasty, said in "泜水": I am here to swim as much as I want, and the songs are nostalgic for the past. Although I can't "nostalgia for the past and present" like him, I can say that I am nostalgic now.
In the summer, the sunshine in Bingcheng is neither warm nor hot, just a bit tepid.
Unlike the summer sunshine in the south, it is very hot, especially around noon. Sometimes it is so hot that it makes people restless, and even reaches the point of being unbearably hot.
Sometimes, I really want to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
It can be said that the more at this time, the more I miss the cool and pleasant summer of Harbin. Spending summer in Harbin is really a unique enjoyment of life and a rare summer resort. In particular, Harbin has a unique charm of exotic style, European and Russian charm, delicious food and beautiful scenery.
Harbin is such a tourist city with unique personality, various styles and different tastes.
It is midsummer in the south today. I dug out old photos today and relived that old time. I felt particularly cordial and exuded the fragrance and warmth of lilacs , which made my imagination wander.
Yes, as someone who has been there, of course I miss the old campus very much, and I miss every bit of Harbin Institute of Technology , including the somewhat romantic swimming pool that once gave me a sense of fugue.
This is exactly what it is, the world is connected by a thread, and a photo connects the Ice City!
People, although they are in clear water, are extremely warm.
