The commercial street of Liuxiao Road is very large, both sides of the road are. Eat, wear and use, everything is covered. It really takes half a day to get around the commercial street of Liuxiao Road. We mainly come to visit the cosmetics shop on Liuxiao Road. After a few steps, we choose Matsumoto Qing as our cosmetics shop. Entering the pharmacy is really falling into the rice jar, skin care, hair care, daily necessities, medicines, all-round, full range. By the way, the cards here are much cheaper than the cereals I bought in the big supermarket. It's really a good deal. It's the right thing to buy.
