One nearby feature to visit would be one of those curious arc-shaped wind tails behind light-toned boulders (apparently, at the HiRISE resolution images of the landing site). My initial thought was that these were simply barchan dunes, but they may not be that.
Yes indeed, but not forgetting also the backshell + the heatshield (both located at southwest), if the Chinese engineers want to make an full technical assessment of the behaviour of their components during EDL (very much like the technical visit made during the Opportunity mission).
This kind of technical visit is not recommended for the Perseverance mission which must avoid the contamination of the suite of instruments that seek the traces of past life.
But the Chinese have not the same scientific constraints
...and such visits would provide spectacular images they will like to share worldwide to impress people about their mastering of difficult space exploration techniques
