Andrea: The best time to visit a \u519c\u5bb6\u9662 is during the summer or early autumn before it gets cold and all the fruit is in season. But, if you happen to come in the winter, this bed is a great amenity. It’s a traditio<\/em>nal Chinese “Kang” – bed stove. The bed itself is made of brick. Obviously with a small mattress on top of it you can sleep somewher comfortably. <\/span>

Andrea: Now the English word is just the same as the Chinese word, but make sure you use the sharp tone when saying it in Chinese, “Kang”.

<\/span><\/p>\n

Andrea: Many farms offer fruit picking. So depending on the season and the area, you can pick everything from apricots, cherries and vegetables. The Huairou District wher we are today is well-known for its chestnuts. It’s too late in the season for picking strawberries, but now in the summer, it’s the perfect time for picking cherries. \u6211\u4eec\u53bb\u6458\u6a31\u6843\u5427\uff01

Andrea: The red o<\/em>nes are the best. Well, now that we‘ve got enough cherries. Let’s go fishing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Andrea: Fishing here gives you a feeling of authenticity, without the frustration of waiting for hours without a bite. They have outfitted this part of the river with a fish farm to make sure that every visitor gets a satisfying fishing experience. Hey! They have caught one! I got it!<\/span><\/p>\n

Andrea: And for those who aren’t patient enough to wait, check out the farmer’s technique of electrocuting the fish. <\/span>
