    Also, the accommodation was super noisy with terrible soundproofing. Definitely steer clear of Yilan Fanghua Guesthouse.

        Yeah, it gets pretty windy and dusty this season. To be honest, the spring winds in Beijing can be the worst. When guests book for the Qingming Festival, I always give them a heads-up. The best time to visit Shidu is actually after April 20th.

            What all did you do? And where did you get your tickets?

              The place we went to didn't require tickets; we were just there to enjoy the views.

                So Shidu caught some flak from you because of the wind, huh?

                      It's not quite the right season yet. I reckon in another couple of weeks, the experience will be much better than it is now.

                                Oh, by the way, you can haggle for horseback riding. You should be able to get a ride for 15 or 20. Whatever you do, don't pay 50 and get ripped off!
