Qixing Lake (Qixingtan) on Summer

As I mentioned earlier in my post about Qixing Lake ( Qixingtan ), I got an impressive view in this place that I feel so much relaxation in going here. This is my third time visiting this place because I really love this scenic area. But this time, there are many people who visited because it was summer and the weather is really good. There are group of friends, families and foreigners walking, staying in the seashore and some are picnicking. It was really feel good in here. The air was fresh, so you can take a deep breath for you to relieve some stress. The scenic view was beautiful as ever.

A family that flocks together will stay forever
You can see them,, it's a group of family walking together and some of them are biking which Qixingtan is designated for biking purposes. It's good to bring your family here and have some talk while enjoying the environment.

But there is one thing we always keep going back in this place. It is where you can find one of the best ice cream vendor. Every time we went here together with my friends we always go and buy this delicious ice cream that comes with different flavors. Said to say I cannot inform you the details about this ice cream booth because actually i did not know that someday I will make a blog site for my travel stories. I just took a random shots. Maybe I will write it for my next visit.
Chocolate Vs. Mango Flavor
We are already satisfied going here in Qixingtan by tasting this mouth melting delicious food. There is a deck where you can viewed the sea while enjoying with your favorite flavored ice cream.
