🍜 must eat good food

2. Wujiang fish: Jiangkou Town is now killed and made, hot and sour appetizing, recommended "Yuelai Restaurant"
3. Dried croissants: intangible cultural heritage snacks, both spiced/spicy, can be used as a souvenir
4. Alpine waxy corn: There are roadside stalls, sweet and soft waxy, Fairy Mountain yogurt (15 yuan/cup, freshly made in pasture) is also worth trying
