Under the backdrop of the night, it has a unique flavor.
🎈Fenghui Ancient Town: connecting prosperity and tranquility
The charm of Fenghui Ancient Town lies in the deep leisure and ease. Here there is no hustle and bustle, no urging, only the quiet years. Walking and stopping on the winding green stone road, as if the fatigue and tiredness of the day all disappear, leaving only a pleasant healing time.
