Suddenly a flock of white owl flew overhead, and the waiter quietly handed me a glass of Hakka yellow wine... At that moment, I understood what "stealing half a day's leisure" means. 📌 Essence shorthand version ✅ Three things you must do: take a picture under the waterfall, soak in a real hot spring, and eat a bearded chicken ✅ Money saving strategy: Stay in a B&B with breakfast and dinner ✅ Photography techniques: shoot clouds and fog in the morning, shoot bamboo sea in the evening ✅ Cultural Egg: Looking for the characteristic architecture of the Yao ethnic group
