Whispering is a necessary courtesy when going abroad. Let us quietly enjoy this beautiful autumn night.

postscript
Because too many tourists flock to the small roads in Shiyuan, the people who live here are overwhelmed. Many corners posted "No Photography" and reminded tourists in four languages to visit the alleys and alleys quietly. We can be here. It’s also lucky to have completed the shooting before. If you go to each place during the spring cherry blossoms and autumn maples, remember to cooperate with the local announcements and don't disturb other residents. Just keep the beautiful scenery in your heart. (► News source)
