On the eastern edge of the main part of the city is the Mihe River. The area along the river is a big and quite lovely park.

As I approached the river for the first time I saw something I had not seen before: several vendors selling fishing poles, nets, and fish traps. Often in China one will see vendors, selling food, kites, pinwheels, balloons. Walking along the river there were lots of folks, even families out fishing.
