And the price is very reasonable! · 📍Dongjiang Lake Pu Su Guoliu Located near Dongjiang Lake, it's very close to Chenzhou attractions, which is especially convenient · 🚪Room I stayed in the Kepler - Starry Sky Glass Room, which is clean and spacious.

Standing there, you can take great photos 📷 casually. There are many warm details on the walls, especially the handwriting left by previous guests which really touched me 👇🏻 · 💯Service We were hosted by the landlady. She is really, really nice and responsive to requests. She would proactively introduce us to delicious places nearby and spots to avoid.
