If you want to get some traveling suggestions. I think a lot of places you can visit, like Chengdu,where are Panda’s hometown and have many delicious spicy foods.Xiamen,it’s a beautiful city by sea; Xi’an,where are one of the ancient city in China and also have a lot of good food; and harbin，every winter, a lot of travelers will visit here, at that time, there like ice city, so colorful. But I just learn their and I have never been there. Maybe one day, I will travel go there. Now, as a person live in Shanghai, I suggest that you can have a trip in Chongming Island as your reaxld day.

Xiamen is a beautiful city by the sea. Xi’An is one of the ancient cities in China and also has a lot of good food. Harbin is a place that is visited by a lot of travelers during the winter, when they build a colorful ice city, but I’ve just heard about it and have never been there. Maybe one day, I will go there.  Chongming Island  is a great place for people who live in Shanghai and want to have a relaxed day.
