Hefei is not so big city to have great places to see, but, anyway, there are some spots, that one can enjoy. One of them is Shu Shan Mountain (蜀山), situated in the western part of Hefei. The mountain has the Television Tower on the top and can be seen from far away places. You can get there by taxi (around 25 Yuan) ot by bus (any bus, which goes to the end of Chang Jiang Lu 长江路 or Huang Shan Lu 黄山路)The place is crowded on weekends and holidays, mostly younger people go there, because you have to make a long and difficult way up the mountain, climb thousand of steep stairs. You get the top when you are out of breathe and power, and feel you can't make any more step upwards. A beautiful scenery of modern Hefei opens up to your eyes from the very top and you can make a deep breathe of the stairs conqueror. )))
If you feel too bored and life seems to be too quiet, go to Walk Street 步行街, you will find your hotel room a piece of paradise then))) The Walk Street is a kind of shopping place with supermarkets of cheap clothes on both sides of the street. Parkson Central Place is a small iceland where you can feel that Europe hasn't disappeared yet. Here you can find a KFC, McDonald's and a very nice Korean Restaurant inside.
