曉曉英: Ma Gong's summer is simply a paradise for urban holiday shopping. It is recommended to be a hotel in Yucheng, because downstairs is Shenghengchang Duty Free Shop, 20% off of the housing project, really good to buy! Magong's seafood is cheap and delicious, the local snacks are really much, Huazhiwan is a must eat, and Ahua rib surface, really miss that taste! There is also Magong's Yawei B&B, which is really cheap and clean, and the boss and wife are super good. Ruihao National Art Museum is also decades of old technology, so miss the hand of the proprietress ah!

曉曉英: Wuhu is really a great place, it is suitable for busy city people to relax and eat seafood on vacation. The scenery is beautiful and the pace is slow. It feels like going home. Today I went to Shetou Mountain, the scenery there is really good, there is no tourists at all, I feel good and wasteful, Shetou Mountain is beautiful, everyone has time to see it!
