Dapo pond gave me a fun experienced here in Chishang where mostly people whose paddling the boat, you could hear them saying “yi, er,san” and “fighting” as an indication that they are having a hard time paddling the boat. Even so, this activity is exciting as it'll give you a different experience. From this activity, it allows you to cut the lotus flowers and bring it with you.
Moreover, there’s a place that you can able to catch a fish or a frog, it's your choice to decide which one you wanted to catch. This was my first time to experience to catch a frog.
This is the famous thing to do here in Chishang. If you wanted to have an exotic food, you should try to give it a visit. It was my first time to eat a fried frog. The taste has a resemblance to a fried chicken but way tastier. Addition to that, you can catch a fish or frog whilst eating.
