Day 1: Artsy vintage + food night market blast
📍Hechai 1972 (Intersection of Jinzhai Road and Tiantangzhai Road, Baohe District, Hefei)
- A cultural and creative park transformed from a prison, super photogenic! Graffiti walls, vintage streets, art exhibitions, every shot is a masterpiece
- Best lighting suggested between 3-4 PM, wearing light-colored clothes makes you stand out more
