It is the best combination of food and humanities. Several folk museums in Shawan are still worth punching in, especially the Left Gengtang, which is the cornerstone of Shawan's humanities. It is the Yinde accumulated by the first officials of Shawan to future generations, and it is also the inheritance of culture by future generations.
