At the turn from spring to summer, it is the best time to call up your family members or some friends to go camping. Counting stars, immersing yourselves in the breeze, drinking and chatting with each other—what a wonderful day!

Camping beside the river could be the most romantic. Imagine walking with the one you love along the river, or sitting beside the campfire in the calm moonlight—what a lovely journey!
