Started to ride at 8.10am after taking some pictures of Chuanzhusi and the usual breakfast of porridge and steamed dumplings,weather was clear but the wind is chilling cold of 9C,gradually we were on the descent with some rolling slopes to pedal,hifi ming had another rear puncture while i waited for him in Sonpan. We decided to explore this very ancient town and also to getting some body rest,check and clean the bike.We found the Shunjiang Youth Guesthouse 順江青年旅館for 100Rmb. After lunch,we took a walk into the old quarter and climbed up to the temple to have a bird eye view of Sonpan located in a valley.
