It’s a great and rustic place to relax and enjoy a retreat away from bustling places. Soft music in the background as you walk along the streets. There’s also an uncle who sits by his house playing the er-hu. Everywhere is within walking distance. Stay beside the river in many of their ‘ming-su’ or local guest houses. It’s so surreal. Don’t expect 5-star quality but it’s clean and comfortable with the necessary amenities.
