    "I believe it is worth watching the show once in your life, but I have to say there were too many people there with their phones on with their brightness to the fullest.

    "I haven't gone for many years. At the moment I went in, the tourist electric car seemed to be the motorcycle army of the Spring Festival. The vastness was very spectacular. There were more attractions and charges on both sides. The local ticket sellers chased the tourists and asked. Traffic is also blocked before. Fortunately, some places are indeed better than before, and there are many good places to take pictures and punch in. There are also a lot more farms to eat."

    "Xianggong Mountain said it was really worth climbing up. It’s not a long time for the elderly to eat, but the time is a little slower, but it’s also a minute to get to the top. The ancient love is also worth going to the young and old. It’s suitable for young people. It’s shocking. Overall it’s really OK. The venue is also very big."
