🌟Hanfu Museum
From CNY 58 for a costume and styling experience. I was mesmerized!
There are many clothes and props to borrow for photos, but remember to book in advance. The nearby buildings make great photo backgrounds.
There are also makeup and costume packages and travel photography options ranging from tens to hundreds of yuan. The parent-child series is great for families.
🌟Parent-child Non-powered Park
Dozens of non-powered play facilities for kids. The kids will love it! It's easy to take the kids out for a walk.
🌟Every Saturday and holiday, there are fire pot performances, Vulcan parades, and fireworks and bonfire parties. Visitors from all over the world come to experience these wonderful and passionate activities. The relaxed and fun atmosphere is truly amazing.

Now let's talk about the attractions around the town.
🌟Guoen Temple, free admission (15-minute drive, 2-hour visit)
The elders will love it. It has a 1,300-year history. Take a slow walk up to see the wishing tree, prayer wheels, Gratitude Tower, and other attractions.
🌟Wenchang Bridge + East Street, Temple Street (15-minute drive, 1-hour visit) Wenchang Bridge is best visited at night. The atmosphere is great when the lights are on, and many locals sing there.
Temple Street has old arcade-style buildings. Great for photos during the day. East Street has many dried fruit shops and local specialties. Clearly marked prices. Worth a visit.
