Before I went to see the introduction, it was also an ancient town with distinctive features. However, after driving more than an hour in Chengdu, I felt that it was far from being introduced. Like most ancient towns, rivers, old streets, shops, teahouses... but as a half-day pastime, it is enough. When I was tired, I sat down by the river to drink tea and see the tourists who were playing in the water. It was quite pleasant.
