I decided to bring my children here when I got off Putuo and there was still some time before my flight. The half-price discount was very cost-effective. The venue is not big but the movement line is very reasonable. I played in it for an entire afternoon and the children were reluctant to leave until it closed. It was great.

The sea water is really clear and blue. You can sit in the B&B and listen to the sound of the waves and watch the sea all day. I recommend this B&B that can only be reached by climbing a mountain. Although the journey is a bit difficult, the scenery is invincible and the cost performance is very high. You must go to the uninhabited village once
