The meaning of ' sightseeing ' in Chinese character

I like Kanji (Chinese character) very much.
Chinese character was developed 3500 years ago in China.
In the 5th-6th century, it came to Japan. It's really nice of you to come!

Chinese character represents an idea or thing rather than the sound of a word.
For example, 'I'm busy' = 忙しい= いそがしい = isogashii
It means 'lose'+'heart,mind'.
Another example, 'sightseeing' = 観光 =　かんこう = kankou　
It means 'see'+'light'.
Sightseeing means that the activity of visiting famous or interesting places. In a word, we see some places in a new (better, different) light. Everyone wants to see 'light'.

Seeing Chinese character, we can inspire the imagination anytime, anywhere.
