Abstract

Travel writing in the Republic of China is not only the textual support of the investigators' walking experience and perception, but also the social and cultural patterns of the Republic of China interspersed in it as an important component of the text. In the context of the specific era, based on the identity and perspective of the investigators, concrete social and humanistic characteristics, frontiers and national images are embedded in the text to weave the frontier landscape. The presentation of various narratives, images and epistemology not only provided a detailed ethnographic reference for the people to broaden the horizons of frontier knowledge at that time, but was also an important type of materials for studying frontier society during the Republic of China, and its value needs to be explored.
