Hello, tourists, I'm from Hangzhou Travel Agency, and I'm your tour guide today. My name is * * * *, and you can call me Xiao *. Please take a look at me now and remember me, because there are so many of you, it is difficult for me to remember so many of you alone, and I can't remember them at once, but it is easy for you to remember me alone. Why must you remember me? Because I am your meal ticket, boat ticket and boat ticket. You can't go anywhere today without me. So remember me.
Today, we came to Hangzhou. As the saying goes, there are Suzhou and Hangzhou above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. Hangzhou is the capital of Zhejiang Province, with an urban area of 3,068 square kilometers and a population of 3.8 million. As can be seen from this picture, Hangzhou is not big and has a small population, but it is famous. Why? Among the top ten tourist cities in China, Hangzhou ranks first. In 2007, there was a national talent show, which was neither super girl nor happy boy. Does anyone know what it is? In this draft, Beijing lost to Hangzhou, which ranked first, eighth and ninth in Shanghai, and Hangzhou was chosen as the happiest city in China.
Although Hangzhou is the happiest city, this place is not good. Why? Unlike Shanxi, where there are coal mines and underground stones can be sold for money, and Guangdong, which is close to the sea and has developed shipping, it was chosen as a reform and opening-up city and a small fishing village, and now it has become a metropolis. But there is a good saying, relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to draft. Although there is no coal mine or sea, Hangzhou has beautiful natural scenery, and as one of the seven ancient capitals of China, Hangzhou has profound cultural connotations. With these resources, Hangzhou has become the most famous tourist city in China.
Tourism is a pillar industry in Hangzhou, and 70% of Hangzhou people are engaged in tourism-related work. This year's financial crisis has reduced the number of tourists. In order to attract foreigners to Hangzhou, the Hangzhou municipal government issued 65.438+0.5 billion tourist vouchers, which were distributed to many provinces and also to compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. As a famous tourist city, Hangzhou is known as the capital of leisure and happiness. People in Hangzhou enjoy life very much. When you go to the park, you will find that there are many people in other parks on weekends, and most of them are elderly people. However, there are many people in parks in Hangzhou on weekends and off-weekends. There are not only old people but also many young people playing in the parks.
Hangzhou people will not give up leisure for work, nor will they be busy every day. They spend the money they earn. Restaurants in Hangzhou are full every day, especially on weekends. You should call in advance to reserve a seat, or there will be no seats. Many people don't go home to cook when they get married. They all eat out, make friends or stay with their families. Every time they eat, they change their style. Often when a person finds a new restaurant, he invites a group of friends to dinner. But now people are used to eating big fish and big meat, but they think green vegetables are delicious, and so do people in Hangzhou. Therefore, the farmhouse business in the suburbs of Hangzhou is very good. Hangzhou people drive to the suburbs whenever they have time, where they can eat authentic farm dishes. Many people go early in the morning, sit there all day, have lunch and go home after dinner. Where is the most famous farmhouse in Hangzhou? Everyone in Hangzhou knows that there are several tea houses near the West Lake, and all the dishes are fried with tea. The most famous dish is Fried Shrimp with Longjing, which the beloved Premier Zhou Enlai used to entertain foreign guests. People in Hangzhou can eat and play. What do people in Hangzhou like to play best? Playing cards. To what extent do you love? There are many chess and card rooms on the streets of Hangzhou, all of which are open 24 hours a day. They can play in it without eating or drinking. No one believes me when I say this, but all the players feel the same way.
People in Hangzhou love to eat, play and spend money. Many people in Hangzhou don't have a passbook. They have no money, but their consumption concept is advanced. When they have money, they will spend it. In the 1980s, people had money to buy televisions and washing machines, and in the 1990s, they had money to buy cars. Now the conditions are good, cars and household appliances are available, and stocks are worthless in the face of the financial crisis. How to spend the money? There is a saying in Shenyang that life is short, one day you close your eyes and the rest of your life you close your eyes. What is the most painful thing in life? People are dead, and the money has not been spent. People are in heaven and money is in the bank. Therefore, people should be kind to themselves and enjoy the hard-earned money, otherwise the money earned will belong to others.
People in Hangzhou love to play, so the pace of life is slow. Let me know in advance when you meet something big. Don't worry, take your time. Take your time is their mantra. It is said that we southerners are gentle, which can be seen from here. Then it's the same for us to travel. Take your time when you encounter something. It's the tourist season. It is inevitable to queue up for dinner, to queue up for doors and to queue up for boats. When you are waiting in line at a scenic spot or restaurant, I hope you don't worry and take your time.
What I just said is the first pillar industry in Hangzhou-tourism. What is the second pillar industry in Hangzhou? Hangzhou is known as the hometown of silk and tea. People who have never been to Hangzhou have also heard of this sentence. The second pillar industry in Hangzhou is agriculture, planting mulberry, raising silkworms, making silk and planting fried tea. It is said that Jiangnan is a land of plenty, but farmers in Hangzhou do not grow rice or fish. Why? Hangzhou has a total area of 3068 square kilometers, 70% of which is mountainous, 20% is plain and 10% is water. Therefore, when we describe the topography of Hangzhou, there is a saying that there are seven mountains and one water field. Most of Hangzhou is a mountainous area, which is not suitable for farming. In addition, Hangzhou is located in the southeast coast and is vulnerable to typhoons. Every summer, after typhoons and rainstorms, farmers plant rice. So farmers in Hangzhou don't farm.
What do farmers eat without farming? As the saying goes, God never shuts one door but he opens another. After repeated practice of working people in past dynasties, it is found that Hangzhou is very suitable for planting mulberry, sericulture and tea trees. Because trees are not easily damaged by typhoons, and silkworm rearing and tea frying can be carried out indoors. Sericulture and silk weaving in Hangzhou have a long history, and silk appeared as early as 4,700 years ago in Liangzhu culture. During the Southern Song Dynasty, Hangzhou, as the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, reached the golden age of economic and cultural development, the silk industry reached its peak, and Hangzhou became the national silk center. The famous Silk Road in history began in Hangzhou. At present, Hangzhou is still the famous Silk Capital of China. In 2003, Hangzhou was listed as one of the "Six Silk Capitals in China" by China Silk Association. At the 2008 Olympic Games, the cheongsam worn by the hostesses was made of Hangzhou silk.
Tea is the second largest crop in Hangzhou, which has been cultivated since ancient times. Cha Sheng Lu Yu wrote in the Book of Tea that Tianzhu Temple in Hangzhou produces tea. Hangzhou, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, entered a glorious period. It not only invented many kinds of tea and new methods of frying tea, but also spread tea culture abroad by learning Zen from eminent monks in Japan and South Korea in the Song Dynasty. The tea ceremony in Japan is very famous, which was quoted from China at that time.
In the Qing Dynasty, Longjing tea became a tribute to the court. Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty was a romantic genius, and he liked beautiful women very much. There are beautiful women in Hangzhou, so he often goes to Jiangnan, and every time he visits them anonymously, it is much more convenient to talk to beautiful women. He visited Jiangnan six times and went to Longjing Village for tea four times. It is said that when he went to Longjing Village for the first time, he was very happy to see tea pickers all over the mountains, so he became interested and wanted to pick bamboo baskets with them. I don't know. The weather is not very good. As soon as he entered the tea garden, it began to rain. He ran to a tea farmer to take shelter from the rain. When the tea farmer saw the man in silk and satin, he knew that he was either rich or rich.
Silk is high-grade silk. In ancient times, being able to wear silk indicated that this person had either money or status, just like the rich people now wear international brand-name clothes and carry brand-name bags. As soon as the family saw that the man hiding from the rain was your son, they warmly let him into the house and took out the newly brewed Longjing tea for him to drink. However, Emperor Qianlong frowned when he took a sip of tea, and even more angry when he took a sip, saying, What kind of tea is this? It's tasteless. As we all know, northerners like to drink scented tea and black tea, which have strong fragrance, but the taste of West Lake Longjing tea is very weak, so he can't get used to it. Gan Long took two sips of tea, then put down his glass and left. But after a few steps, he found a sweet smell in his throat, which was very moist, so he went back to pick up the tea he had just finished and drank it.
The tea farmer was very surprised. He didn't know why Gan Long went and came back, so he asked him, Son, you just said my tea is tasteless, so we will come back to drink it. Gan Long said that although tea is tasteless, it has an endless aftertaste. Qianlong's words summed up the characteristics of Longjing tea, which was tasteless and memorable. So Longjing tea needs to be tasted slowly. These characteristics of Longjing tea are consistent with the eating habits of Hangzhou people. People in Hangzhou like light taste and don't put much oil and salt in cooking. People who have just come to Hangzhou can't get used to it, but after a long time, they will find that this eating habit is very good for their health. Since Emperor Qianlong said this, West Lake Longjing tea has been presented to the palace as tribute tea every year. Now, the same is true. As one of the top ten famous teas in China, West Lake Longjing Tea is presented to the State Council as a state banquet tea every year to entertain foreign guests and state leaders.
Just now I introduced two pillar industries in Hangzhou, tourism and agriculture, namely mulberry planting and tea planting. Now, I will introduce our education in Hangzhou to you. Hangzhou has Zhejiang University, the third largest university in China, next only to Peking University and Tsinghua. However, many foreign students come to Hangzhou to study not for the fame of Zhejiang University, but for the environment of Hangzhou. As a tourist city, Hangzhou has a beautiful environment and good air quality. When we sit in the car, we can look out of the window. The roads are very clean, and our cleaners are on duty 24 hours a day. Several campuses of Zhejiang University are near the West Lake, which is the best and most beautiful place in Hangzhou. One side of the soil and water support one side, while southerners advocate reading, thinking that there is Yan Ruyu in the book and a golden house in the book, so there are talents in Jiangnan, and Jiangnan people like reading and dancing. Hangzhou likes literati, so it gave the best scenery to literati. For example, Song Wan Academy, where Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai studied in ancient times, is also very beautiful. It is located near the West Lake. Standing on the mountain, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the West Lake. The same is true of Zhejiang University now, which is close to the West Lake and has a very good environment.
It's good to go to school in Hangzhou, so how about finding a job in Hangzhou? Unlike Suzhou, Hangzhou has industrial parks. Many Fortune 500 companies set up companies in Suzhou, such as Samsung, Panasonic, Motorola and Sony. It can provide many jobs, and unlike many factories in Guangdong, it is not easy to find a job in Hangzhou. The pillar industries in Hangzhou are tourism, agriculture, mulberry planting, sericulture and tea. 80% of the jobs that Hangzhou can provide to foreigners are service industries. Because Hangzhou develops tourism and the catering and entertainment industries are developed, these enterprises also need a large number of employees. But how many college students are willing to work in the service industry after graduation? Everyone wants to enter a foreign company, or take an examination of civil servants, enter a government unit and hold an iron rice bowl. It is impossible for agriculture to provide jobs for foreigners, because planting mulberry, sericulture and tea is a craft, which has not been spread abroad. Fathers educate their sons and daughters and pass them on from generation to generation. Then some people will ask, if this family grows tea, there is no son at home, only a daughter, and the skill of frying tea cannot be passed on to her daughter. Then recruit a son-in-law and don't underestimate this door-to-door son-in-law. It is a blessing to be the door-to-door son-in-law of tea farmers, because these tea farmers are very rich. In Song Dynasty, Zhang Yu wrote a poem describing the life of silkworm farmers. It's written like this. Yesterday, he went to town and came back with tears on his face. Luo Qi is not a sericulture farmer. He wrote about the life of silkworm farmers in the Song Dynasty. Up to now, the situation has completely changed, and he is led by the nose by the production party.
Each of them lives in a villa, at least they have a car at home. When you become a door-to-door son-in-law, the property will be yours. However, they also have high requirements for their son-in-law. They will definitely stir-fry tea. Longjing tea is fried with their palms. The temperature of the wok is at least 80, and gloves should not be worn on your hands. This requires real skills, or their hands will turn into braised pork. Therefore, if you are not married, don't want to stay in Hangzhou as a door-to-door son-in-law, and hurry home to coax your girlfriend. This place in Hangzhou is only suitable for eating, drinking and having fun. If you want to have fun, enjoy life and relax here, if you want to find a job here, forget it. One month 1000 yuan for a single room in downtown Hangzhou, 500 yuan, a suburb of Hangzhou. The salary in Hangzhou is low, up to 3.4 thousand a month, and all you earn is salary. Where can I enjoy it? You'd better take this opportunity to enjoy yourself.
We all say that we will travel to Hangzhou, so what shall we see in Hangzhou? When we talk about seeing the city walls in Beijing, Beijing has a long history and is one of the seven ancient capitals in China. There are many royal buildings, such as the Forbidden City in Beijing, which is rated as the Great Wall of Wonders of the World. We went to Xi 'an to see the mausoleum. "Qin has been the capital of emperors since ancient times." Xi is also an ancient capital, which is even longer than Beijing. There is a saying, look at the history of 500 years and go to Beijing. Look at the history of 1000 years and go to Shaanxi loess. How many emperors are buried? According to statistics, there are 72 imperial tombs in Shaanxi. The most famous is the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shihuang Mausoleum. So I went to Xi 'an to see the tomb. When I arrived in Guilin, I saw the mountains. Guilin's landscape is the best in the world. The water of the Lijiang River is crystal clear, and the mountains on both sides of the river have different shapes and are beautiful.
Go to Shanghai to see the heads. Shanghai has the largest population density in China, with many people. When I went to Nanjing to see the stones, the rain flower stones in Nanjing were very beautiful and brightly colored, and they were very good as decorations. When I arrived in Suzhou, I saw the bridge. Suzhou has more than 500 rivers and more than 360 bridges. It's a real bridge. Known as Venice of the East. So today we are in Hangzhou. What will we see in Hangzhou? Let's guess. By the way, look at that girl. It is said that there are beautiful women in Jiangnan. Of course, you have to see beautiful women when you arrive in Hangzhou. Girls in Hangzhou are also classified. Those under 20 are called little girls, young and energetic, and those over 30 are called old girls. Most of these girls are married and become young women. Many people don't like watching it, but some people prefer it. There is a saying to describe them, and their charm still exists. Although I am old, I am very mature and have a unique style. Today, everyone has come from afar. Of course, I will show you our girl in Hangzhou.
2. Hangzhou Road Tour Guide Words
From one paradise on earth to another, the scenery we see is constantly changing. Although this change is not obvious. Remember when I was in Suzhou, I said that if Suzhou and Hangzhou were compared, Suzhou was a small jasper and Hangzhou was a good family? Then this beautiful family will show her beautiful charm one by one from now on.
In fact, in my impression, Hangzhou has always been such a city about a lake, with all kinds of touching legends and stories about the lake, among which romantic love stories account for the vast majority, such as Xu Xian and White Snake, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, Su Xiaoxiao and Ruan Yu. Although these loves are very touching, they are also very sad. Whether it's "Wait a Thousand Years, Wait a Time ~ ~" (singing) or "Liang Shanbo-Zhu Yingtai, romeo and Juliet, It's a Thousand Years of Love ~ ~" (singing), the two words of romance and love have been written for Hangzhou. At the same time, Hangzhou is also a very pleasant and enjoyable city. You see, almost all taxis running all over the street are Passat. High taste, right? Holidays are pleasing to the eye, and people in Hangzhou like to drive a private car to drink tea. No wonder some people say that the city of Hangzhou is like a cup of tea, and the people living in Hangzhou are the pieces of tea dancing in the cup. How poetic and romantic! So romantic city, the capital of love and leisure, is the definition of Hangzhou. Without the beautiful West Lake and so many romantic, love and leisure enjoyment, today's Hangzhou, a paradise on earth, may really be inferior.
However, Hangzhou is definitely not a simple city. Its characteristic is that the whole city is a free natural park, full of scenery and poems, silent poems and three-dimensional paintings. You can enjoy different scenery here in different seasons every year. For example, we can go to Su Causeway in spring, enjoy the wind and lotus in the opera house in summer, visit Pinghu and the autumn moon in autumn, and watch broken bridges and broken snow in winter. The charm of Hangzhou not only makes the guests here come from thousands of miles away, but also makes so many foreigners come here. Kyle Poirot, an Italian traveler in Yuan Dynasty, came to Hangzhou. Perhaps at that time, people in China regarded this old horse as a guest because there were few foreigners, so that he was moved to tell everyone that Hangzhou was "the most beautiful and luxurious city in the world". As the saying goes, Suzhou and Hangzhou are paradise on earth. But when describing these two cities. Kyle Poirot has another choice. His introduction to Suzhou took only one page, while his introduction to Hangzhou took 16 pages, describing Hangzhou as a "city in the air". However, the landscape we see now may be a little reluctant, and we may think that Ma Lao's words are too exaggerated, but Hangzhou in history is really so beautiful and luxurious. Especially in the Southern Song Dynasty, it was once the temporary capital of the imperial court. "The warm wind makes tourists drunk and makes Hangzhou a Zhangzhou." At that time, Hangzhou was a "southeast wind, a metropolis of Sanwu, and Qiantang was prosperous since ancient times." Now, although we can't see such a grand occasion from the city itself, we are still in Hangzhou. Every night, when the lights are on, there is a place in Hangzhou that can truly reproduce this bustling scene, allowing you to cross just visiting and go back to a thousand years ago to feel the real life of a paradise on earth. Do you know where Hangzhou is? Yes! It's Song Cheng, the largest theme scenic spot in Song Wenhua in China, "Give me one night and give you back a thousand years"! Briefly introduce the contents of Legend of Song Dynasty, and be careful not to say that it is a theme park in Song Wenhua. Will guests subconsciously find the park interesting? )-(This part should be vivid)
Because there are so many Chinese and foreign guests going to Song Cheng, there are no vacancies in the parking lot in Song Cheng every night. So it was also targeted by some small vendors in Hangzhou. Just getting off the bus, I haven't seen the word "Song Cheng" yet, and someone has surrounded me. Why? I want to sell you their "West Lake Longjing Tea" and "Silk Small Square Towel"! This West Lake Longjing can be called cheap here. West Lake Longjing Tea, which ranks first among the top ten green teas in China, actually sells only one can of 5 yuan. Isn't it exciting? Ok, buy it! But if someone buys it, it will be a big loss. The outer packaging of this Longjing tea is beautiful, but whoever buys it will find the mystery inside as soon as it is opened: the tea inside is divided into three layers. The first floor is passable authentic Longjing tea (but not West Lake Longjing, but Zhejiang Longjing), the second floor is tea that hotel guests have drunk and dried, and the bottom floor is willow leaves and Hollyleaf that can be seen everywhere by the West Lake. A small silk scarf is absolutely cheap. You can buy three for ten dollars and six for ten dollars. Are you excited? Stop acting! Why? Hehe, let me ask you a question first. Is this silk real or fake? Fake? No, I told you this is real silk, real silk. It's just not real silk, it's petroleum chemical fiber silk. What is petroleum chemical fiber? For example, the plastic bag we usually use is extracted from petroleum chemical fiber silk, so if anyone accidentally moves it, the direct consequence is that you have a plastic bag tied around your neck. And the effect it pursues is warm in winter and cool in summer. In winter, if you wear this small silk scarf, you want to look beautiful and turn around more, but what? The north wind is blowing, and my neck is cold (shivering). Hehe, so, we have to withstand the temptation. You can't resist the temptation, but you have to spend a little money and suffer a big loss!
Hangzhou is definitely a very enjoyable city. People live a petty-bourgeois life. Everyone saw it on the way to Hangzhou. Almost all the farmers' houses here are small villas, and each one is more beautiful than the other. What does this fully illustrate? Hangzhou people have money! Wear silk; Drink, drink Longjing; Even sleeping in a silk quilt! Where do you think Hangzhou people want to go besides Hangzhou? So for Hangzhou people, the best place in the world should be here! Moreover, Hangzhou is the most perfect city I have ever seen that combines life and consumption, and it is also a perfect city that combines artificial beauty with natural beauty. With the West Lake as the boundary, to the east of the West Lake is a completely modern city with many tall buildings. Real family is the symbol of China's entry into WTO, and it has entered this colorful world. The west of the West Lake is a paradise with high mountains and dense forests, which means that its birth is far from the busy world. This is Hangzhou. Even the great poet Bai Juyi said that "Jiang Nanyi is a paradise on earth"!
I have always had a good impression on Hangzhou people, because Hangzhou people have always liked Shanghainese coming to Hangzhou. Why? Make contributions! If Shanghainese have relatives and friends for weddings, silk quilts, quilts, clothes and silk quilts in Hangzhou must be bought in Hangzhou, because they are much cheaper than those in Shanghai. Just take a round-trip train ticket from Shanghai to Hangzhou and calculate the cost. It is much cheaper to buy in Hangzhou than in Shanghai. Hehe, do you think Shanghainese are smart? That's not cleverness, it's life! Of course, this kind of Longjing and silk can't be bought by street vendors, but it's a pity to buy it, otherwise it would be a shame to give it away. West Lake Longjing tea and silk are the most famous specialties in Hangzhou, and they are also the first choice for giving each other gifts. What other famous specialties are there in Hangzhou? Say something casually: Paradise brand silk umbrella, king fan, scissors, Tianzhu brand chopsticks, Sancun lotus root starch, Tianmu mountain dried bamboo shoots (say this paragraph quickly) and so on. Do you think Hangzhou is a treasure of things? -If this paragraph is not a tour guide in Shanghai, you can learn from it and highlight the "shrewdness" of Shanghainese.
Besides, excellent people. Hangzhou people, like Suzhou people and Shanghai people, speak in the Wu language family and can understand each other. However, Hangzhou dialect has a unique pronunciation law, the most typical of which is an "er" sound. However, this "er" is not as heavy as the northeast dialect, and it is just an understatement (for example, dialects such as "Little Sister-in-law" and "Little Yaya"). This is a difference in speech. In the Yangtze River Delta region, in fact, there are many customs and habits in Hangzhou that are different from other places. Take marrying a little sister-in-law. Now you have to give gifts when you get married. For gifts, a red envelope is the best, 300 is not too little, and 500 is not too much. In addition to red envelopes, Hangzhou people have to prepare four kinds of wedding gifts. (For example: chopsticks, silk umbrella, tea, silk quilt. Expand it a little bit and tell me why you want to give these gifts. )
Different from the Wu culture accepted by Suzhou people, Hangzhou has accepted Yue culture since ancient times, because it was originally the territory of Gou Jian, the king of Yue, so the influence of Yue culture here is very far-reaching. Insert a story about Cantonese customs: Everyone will tell the story of Cinnamomum camphora. Today, although Hangzhou is no longer the "most beautiful and luxurious city" in the world described by Kyle Polo, it is still the second largest city in the Yangtze River Delta after Shanghai. How big is it? The city has a total area of 1650 square kilometers and a total population of nearly 7 million, including an urban area of 3,068 square kilometers and an urban population of about 4 million. It is also the political and cultural center of Zhejiang. The name of Hangzhou comes from Yuhang. When it comes to Yuhang, you may not be familiar with it, but as long as I say two people, everyone knows. Who is it? Yang Naiwu and Chinese cabbage, they are from Yuhang. The name of Hangzhou comes from the fact that Dayu abandoned the ship and landed more than 4000 years ago, and the word "Hangzhou" in Hangzhou means ship in ancient Chinese, so later generations called the place where Dayu landed as "Yuhang". In Hangzhou dialect, the pronunciation of "Yu" and "Yu" is the same, so later "Yuhang" became Yuhang. This can be said to be the first place in Hangzhou. Later, Hangzhou got the name Qiantang, so if you watch TV, for example, in Yang Naiwu and Chinese cabbage, you will see Qiantang County and Qiantang River, and even the West Lake used to be called Qiantang Lake. All these can explain the long history of Hangzhou. The long history has created the prosperity of Hangzhou, and now the prosperity of Hangzhou still depends on the whole city appearance and the girls in Hangzhou. There are some differences between Hangzhou girls and Suzhou girls. They are all beautiful women in Jiangnan. Suzhou girl is slim and compact, while Hangzhou girl is integrated with lakes and mountains. Anyway, PK, the only constant is their skin and silk clothes. "Buddha depends on gold, and people depend on clothes." Through silk clothing, you can imagine the affluence of people's lives and the perfection of consumption and life collocation I mentioned earlier. This is Hangzhou-a natural and beautiful city of history and humanities, a city of love, romance and leisure, and a paradise on earth that you really don't want to leave when you come!
