The least popular town I visited this year, I hope it becomes popular but I don’t want it to be too popular

The least popular town I visited this year, I hope it becomes popular but I don’t want it to be too popular As a travel blogger who doesn’t like to join in the crowds but likes taking photos, finding quiet, niche destinations with few people and beautiful scenery has always been something I enjoy doing. This time I came to Zhijiang, Xiangxi. Although I only stayed there for two days, it left me with many surprises and unexpected things. If I could only use one word to describe Zhijiang, I think that word would probably be the smell of fireworks. Here is the world's longest wind and rain bridge, but it is not closed off to charge admission or protected, but open to tourists and citizens for free. People are chatting, enjoying the cool air, walking their kids, and taking a stroll on the bridge. There are also a large number of businesses operating on the bridge. As the most popular place in the city, the prices of things on the bridge are surprisingly affordable, and almost all the customers are locals. The river flowing under the bridge is called Wushui, which may be the most beautiful river name I have ever heard. In the summer evenings, many people take cold showers in the river, while adults and children cool off, play, and dance in the square on the bank under the bridge. The tranquility and comfort of the small city are perfectly reflected at this moment.
