We visited the museum for free because the museum issues 6,000 free tickets a day. (3,000 tickets in the morning and 3,000 tickets in the afternoon). Then we went to a restaurant and had Yangrou Paomo. We did lots of things in the city, from sightseeing to boating. At the end of each day, we felt we had no energy at all. But the next morning it seemed that everything was fresh again.
All the hotels we lived in were fantastic. Maple Hotel had the best service and it is my favorite. It was next to a park and we could listen to the birds singing in the early morning.
