Don't buy anything from the stores around there, it's probably fake, I was at the nike store and was just about to pay then I looked at the shoe and thought it looked a bit weird, so I googled nike stores near me and there were no stores near me, so I asked the staff if it was real and it wasn't. When I went to adidas, they said it was real but obviously it was all fake.

Tianning Temple (天寧寺) is an important building in Jiangsu Province. It attracts visitor for the majestic structure and long history building: 1. The structure feature: this 13-storey octagon shaped temple is 153.7 meter height, which is the highest pagoda in China and in the world. There is an elevator for visitor to the top floor. You have to prepare the money. 2. The history feature: There are about 500 Arhat (羅漢) statues embedded in the both sides of the wall. The artistic level is very high and rare, which is seen as the treasure of the temple. I recommend visitor can go to the Hongmei Park (紅梅公園) after temple trip. You can stroll in this beautiful park and discover different view for the Tianning Temple.

Tianning Temple in Shanghai is a truly sacred and peaceful place filled with positive energy. The moment you step inside, you can feel a deep sense of calm and spiritual connection. The temple’s architecture and chanting create a serene atmosphere for prayer and reflection. It’s a wonderful place to offer incense, meditate, and experience the compassion and blessings of the Buddhas. A meaningful destination for anyone seeking peace of mind and spiritual growth.

Sean M — Google review
(Translated by Google) If you have the opportunity, or the need, to try an Italian restaurant in Changzhou, I recommend the Monkey King. What can I say... whatever course is well made, the owner's "philosophy" is immediately noticeable: quality first and foremost. What is striking is the absolute precision in the dosage of flavors and choice of products in the preparations, in reality, it does not seem like being in Changzhou but in a good restaurant in Italy. You immediately notice that the "perceived sensations"... are the result of good culinary preparation and great dedication on the part of the Chef in the refinement of Italian products for the courses. These choices made allow the customer to ... "find themselves" at home. The menu allows a varied choice: many types of Pizza, Pasta, Risotto, Soups, types of Meat, Cheese, etc..etc. Good selection of wines on offer. The staff always welcomes you with a sincere smile. In my opinion, the Monkey King is a valid choice for an evening of good Italian cuisine. (Original) Se avete modo, oppure l’esigenza, di provare un Ristorane Italiano a Changzhou, consiglio il Monkey King. Che dire.. qualunque portata, risulta di buona fattura, si avverte immediatamente la “filosofia” del proprietario: la qualità innanzitutto. Quello che colpisce è l'assoluta precisione nel dosaggio dei gusti e scelta dei prodotti nelle preparazioni, in realtà, non sembra di essere a Changzhou ma, in un buon ristorante in Italia. Si avverte subito che le “sensazioni percepite”… sono frutto di una buona preparazione culinaria e grande dedizione da parte dello Chef nella ricercatezza dei prodotti Italiani per le portate. Tali scelte intraprese, permettono al cliente di ….. “ritrovarsi” a casa. Il menù, consente una variegata scelta: molti tipi di Pizza, Pasta, Risotti, Zuppe, tipi di Carne, Formaggi, etc..etc. Buona la selezione dei vini proposti. Il personale, ti accoglie sempre con un sorriso sincero. Secondo me, il Monkey King, risulta una valida scelta per una serata all’insegna della buona cucina Italiana.

With an owner hailing from Italy, you can truly savor the essence of traditional Italian cuisine, especially their mouthwatering pizzas that stand out as some of the best around. The restaurant also offers refreshing German draft beer to complement your meal perfectly.
It was good. A little wait, but the food was delicious. They should open more around.- it was full packed and the staff was very helpful.-
Christopher C — Google review
It's changed and now and called Candle's. The menu has four pizzas (honestly it tasted like a frozen pizza), quesadillas, German sausages, and steak. It definitely seems mostly focused on being "German". They do have several German beers. It's mostly treated like a bar by the locals and there's lots of smoking in the dining room

Lovely restaurant with very good Italian style pizzas. The owner is italian and you can taste that. Also German draft beer is available. When your finished, you get a free shot, try the limoncello, which is very nice.

Istanbul Turkey Coffee Restaurant is a delightful spot that offers an authentic taste of Halal Turkish cuisine. Recently, I had the pleasure of dining there with local friends, and we were all impressed by the delicious flavors and generous portion sizes. The ambiance is beautiful, complemented by friendly staff who make you feel right at home. While prices are on the higher side, the quality of dishes like yellow lentil soup and doner plates makes it worthwhile.
Beautiful restaurant. Friendly staff and really excellent food. Would recommend the yellow lentil soup, doner plates and sharing plates. Also excellent coffee!
