Welcome to Xiangshan City!
Xiangshan City is an interesting place to visit. It is a small beautiful town with many old buildings.
Take a walk through the centre of the town on Main Street. Look first at the Xiangshan City Hotel. It is on the corner of Main Street and Park Avenue. It is about 150 years old. There is an interesting old building across from the hotel. It was an old post office. Now it is a store for books and videos. There are many places to eat on Main Street. You can have lunch or dinner in one of these places. There is a park between Main Street and Bridge Street. You can sit on a bench (长凳) in the park. It is nice and quiet, and you can enjoy the trees and flowers.
You can also take a walk down Park Avenue and look at the old buildings and interesting stores on this street.
