    "The ticket booked on Trip.com this time is much cheaper than the scene. Although it is a high mountain flower sea at noon, it is still very hot. The flowers are very large, but there are not many varieties, it may be a seasonal problem. The ticket booked on Trip.com this time is much cheaper than the scene.
