Yesterday afternoon, my friends and I went to Wushan Temple Fair. There were all kinds of snacks in the fair, and we hardly miss chances of having delicious snacks.
I bought a bunch of roasted mutton from a merchant who came from Xinjiang. He kindly welcomed us to visit his hometown, and gave me a big one. All of us ate too much food like fried smelly tofu, wonton, cakes, roasted meat and so forth.
Besides food and drink, there were lots of groceries. We also met some merchants who came from India, Nepal, Italy, Pakistan, and so on. They could speak good Chinese.
In the end, we walked into Huichuntang, a famous traditional Chinese herbal medicine store which was set up in 1649. We sat down and had cups of fragrant herbal tea for free. In this store, they provide free tea everyday.
