After entering the scenic area, you can choose to take the cable car 🚠, which can not only save energy but also enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery along the way.

Standing on the bridge, you are surrounded by continuous mountains and misty clouds, as if you are in a fairyland. The South Sky Bridge spans between cliffs, with a deep abyss at the foot, which is thrilling and exciting.

The macaron-colored houses are scattered on the hillside in an orderly manner, and any shot can produce a blockbuster movie.

The soft and glutinous cake skin is wrapped with a variety of rich fillings, including braised pork, fried dough sticks, shredded potatoes, tofu puffs, etc. You can mix and match them according to your taste. One bite and you’ll feel full of happiness. I recommend going to [specific store name]. Their embedded cakes are rich in ingredients and delicious, and are loved by local people. Biscuit roll 🌯 Similar to spring rolls, but richer than spring rolls. Various ingredients are rolled into the thin dough, including bean sprouts, vermicelli, shredded eggs, shrimps, pork belly, etc., and then fried until the skin is golden and crispy. Take a bite, it’s crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the aroma of various ingredients spreads in your mouth, leaving you with an endless aftertaste.
