The best holiday I've ever been on
Talking about holidays, the most vividly one is my mind is the experience in Chiengmai, which is an epic place to stay in Thailand.Two years ago, with 7 best friends, I went to Chiengmai for a whole week.
Instead of living in a luxury hotel, we choosed a cosy coffee shop to stay, which have several rooms on the second and third floor. Everday, the owner of this coffee shop cooked tasty breakfast for us, even it was not Thai style, but American. As the place is very near to the city center, it was convenient for us to go to anyplace of Chiengmai.
The seven days in Chiengmai are unforgettable and we experienced a lot different things in the Thai way. Everything was cheap and with great quality there. We went to the traditional Thai Spa to enjoy massage which is absolutely on the must-try list. There is a long history for Thai people to use spices, such as lemongrass, galangal, curry etc. Moreover, the tourist guide even lead us to the local market to experience local people's life and buy goods by using Thai language.
There is a traditional weekend night fair starting from Friday to Sunday, which is well organised and bustling with people and a great variety of souvenirs and snacks. When we spent almost two hours there eating and shopping, we were astonished by the great scale of the maket which seemed endless but so atractive to us.We are all big fans of Thai food, so the market is a food heaven for us! Eventhough we don't know the name of most of the food, but sharing with each other was an unforgettable memory for all of us.
We even tried the flying squirrels which is a famous jungle flight club where people can fly through the jungle by a ropeway and that is the most exciting thing I have ever tried! Apart from jungle flight, the night safari zoo was also epic in which the giraffe asked food from tourists by putting their head in the sightseeing bus.
After leaving Chiengmai, I always dreamed back to that miracle and fantasy world again. Truely hope to go back again!

Three of my favorate places in Shanghai
As I have been living in Shanghai for almost 10 years, I do have some favorate places to share. Rather than the tourist attractions, there are three relatively unknown ones I'd like to talk about and all of them are in Songjiang District, Southwest Shanghai.
If you enjoy eating tasty and cheap food, Wenhui Road is one of the best choices and my first recommendation. It's a straight business street across the Songjiang university town with a variety of coffee shops and resturants. Without using the Dianping, which is a famous chinese food recommendation app, you can always find a good place to enjoy a pleasant afternoon. There are also some famous ones, such as Miss Wang Coffee, Baoshifu ricecakes, Huang's pancakes and so on. Remember to share food with your friends, otherwise you won't have enough stomache to enjoy all of them.
As most people enjoy quite places with good views to relax on weekend, the second place I'd like to share is the way from songjiang university town to Yuehu sculpture park. It is convenient to get to there by bicycle and the view on the way is terrific! Along the 20 minutes riding, you can also tour around Sheshan which is the highest montain in Shanghai. Trees and flowers is cultivated everywhere, which makes this way the best jogging place. Admittedly, the tickets for Yuehu sculpture park is expensive. Nevertheless, it's totally worth going there if you have a tent to camp, and the one of the few parks which allow dogs to access.
The last but not least place I want to talk about in this article is the library in the university which I graduated from. The whole building is constructed in the shape of M, which stands for modern. When you entrance the front gate, the most shining and attractive thing must be the glass staircases linked all the floors from 2 to 5. Obviously, the freshmen always love to take photos on that stairs. Sometimes you can even see bride and bridegroom taking wedding pictures there as they all graduated from this university. Apart from the beautiful interrior designs, to be honest, there are always new and best selling books in each reading room. But to entrance the reading room, a student card is needed. Fortunately , I can still use mine even though I've graduated for a long time.
I have to say there are so many good places to visit apart from this three ones , but these are the ones always remain vividly in my mind. Hope to see you in Songjiang!
