Walking In the Old Town - I enjoyed Very much walking on the old town having lunch with a Very amazing tour guide Mary in the 100 years old restaurant. So grateful seeing the Jade buddha and learning some cultures and a Beautiful You Garden. And Thank you so much for accommodating my last minute tour.
