Lets say i would like to visit Ningbo on early Octobor. What type of activities are available?

It is the National Day Holiday in China during early October from Oct. 1 ~7. You may find some celebrations there at that time. You can taste the typical local dishes there. The famous dishes include Bingtang Jiayu (Steamed Turtle in Crystal Sugar Soup), Braised Eel , Bean Curd Skin Roll with Yellow Croaker. Others like Fried Eel, Braised Yellow Croaker with Pickled Potherb Mustard, and Fish with Seaweed are also made with the bounty of the sea. It is cool and comfortable with a temperature of about 15~23C during that time.
