I have written about my experience on the high-speed rail no less than a hundred times since 2023, and I can’t think of anything else to say about it. I have already taken the high-speed rail in 2025, which means it is very convenient.

It’s very cool. It’s different from what I expected. I was surprised when I entered the scene. The pictures are very strong and the children can run and jump happily to try out various possible reactions to the pictures!
