Walking to the end of the world - the moment that makes me feel the most insignificant as a human being

#globaltravel ##rocacabo Cabo da Roca (Cabo da Roca) is located on the Atlantic coast of Portugal and is the westernmost point on the European continent. - Before the Great Geographical Discovery, Europeans thought that the Atlantic Ocean beyond Cape Roca was the "end of the world." When you come here, looking at the endless sea, you can feel the romance of the ancients arriving at the ends of the earth. In the 15th century, this location became an important symbol for navigators, who used Cape Roca as a starting point for their sailing expeditions. 🌊 - There is a famous sentence written in Portuguese on the cross monument: AQUI.. ONDE A TERRA SE ACABA E O MAR COMEGA - The Chinese translation is "The land ends here and the sea begins here." At the end of the road is the sea. - We arrived at Cabo da Roca half an hour before sunset. Although the sky was gloomy and the wind was biting, I was lucky enough to see a glimmer of sunset. Looking at the boundless sea (the sea in Hong Kong is really not that endless), listening to the calm waves (the waves in Hong Kong are really not that calm), and blowing the wild and strong sea breeze... - I think of the former navigators who set out from this boundless sea to explore unknown places in the world, and I admire their fearless spirit. - Suddenly, I felt very small as a human being, and I felt a deep sense of peace, emotion, and comfort that I had never experienced before. - It feels so good to be alive~💨💨 - I hope to witness the complete sunset when I come next time, sit in the coffee shop of Cabo da Roca, drink hot coffee, and leisurely enjoy the magnificent scenery. - Photos/videos cannot capture the beauty of Cabo da Roca. If you have the chance in life, you must come here in person! ! 🥹🥹🥹
