When it comes to Dongfeng Bikeway, there is a picturesque spot where you will highly admire.
It is not a natural tourist attraction, but an attractive ice shop--200days with a white modern building.
If you ever ask me to pick a shop in the city that fits "love at first sight," then it has to be 200days without a doubt.
It is located at the place which is marked 1.1km on Dongfeng Bikeway.
How to visit this glamorous shop?
Riders are free to decide whether to start from Dongfeng Bikeway or Houfeng Bikeway.
Houfeng Bikeway is linked to Dongfeng Bikeway; thus, it's up to you to decide where to start.
Normally, visitors would take a train to Houli Train Station
Then, walk out of the station, you will see a Ji-Dian Bicycle Rental
After renting a bike, I strongly recommend you to have a cup of coffee at a nice cafe near the rental
It is also run by the boss of Ji-Dian Bicycle Rental
The cafe serves tasty coffee.
Having a cup of coffee, it's time to have a wonderful bike trip from the shop to Houfeng Bikeway.
If you ride on the Houfeng Bikeway, you must go through a famous tunnel,
called Number 9 Tunnel, which is narrow and dark but delightfully breezy
After riding through the tunnel, you will see a majestic 400-meter steel bridge,called Hualiang Steel Bridge
Crossing the steel bridge, take 10 more minutes ride and then you may see this small lovely landmark.
It means you need to get an U turn to ride on the Dongfeng Bikeway.
Keep riding about 5 to 10 minutes, you will arrive at 200 days ice shop.
In front of the shop is a rectangle pond.
If you are tired after a long bike ride, just lie on this recliner and enjoy the sun shine first
The shop signboard is made of wood and printed its name--200 days.
It is simple but a strong design presentation.
The shop provides outdoor seats with fashionable parasols and chairs next to the shop.
The boss is very considerate to provide two sinks with faucets so that customers
are able to wash hands after having their ice products
without having the feelings of being sticky on the hands.
Remember to raise your head to look at the sky when taking a seat outside the shop.
It may make you feel delighted after catching the sight of the fascinating blue sky.
While stepping into the shop, the first impression you may have is bright and clean.
The owner of the shop insisted on building it with big pieces of glass
so as to let the sun shine and light in.
With the boss' design by heart, the shop is filled with the elements of fashionable design,
including its bag and wet wipe
It is a kind of enjoy to consume in the shop,
for it provides the birght and attractive space for all the customers.
The price list of the square taro ice and popsicles shows all the customers on the screen on the wall.
It is nice to let the customers see the price of its products obviously.
When stepping into the shop, you will see the counter on your right hand side,
young but well-trained shop assistants always carry their smiles to serve all the customers.
The main products of 200 days
The shop provides 7 tastes of square taro ice and popsicle
Two square taro ice cost 25 dollars
Five for 60 dollars
Each popsicle cost 25 dollars
The square taro ice above we have tried are red bean taste , peanut taste and pineapple taste.
Each taste is delicious and worth tasting.
Chef J. and my friend tried three tastes which are milk, longan and pineapple in order (the picture above)
Both of us regard the longan one as the strongest flavor one which worth tasting.
In addition to taro ice products, the shop also provides coffee, coconut juice and mineral water.
If you would like to buy more to share with your family or friends,
the shop also provides the taro ice with Styrofoam box
for the purpose of preventing the ice from melting.
The shop is built with various amazing bevels which always draw customers' attention at their first sight.
It will be a wonderful design for the entire building.
