This is my first visit to Chongqing, which used to be the political center of the Republic of China and is now a municipality directly under the Central Government. Mountain city, where GPS will fail; Hometown of boiled fish, hairy blood and hot pot.
From Jiangbei Airport, the airport line 1 goes all the way to Jiefang North Business Circle, a landmark in Chongqing, and the bus finally stops on Banpo. We climbed the hill and saw Jiefang North. In Chongqing, I feel that I have been going uphill and downhill, and the stone steps in the alley are scattered. This is the taste of the mountain city, and the world seems to have an extra dimension. Jie Fangbei used to be a tall and magnificent building, but now it looks small and elegant against the surrounding commercial skyscrapers. The white and yellow light is soft and close. The evening breeze in April is soft and refreshing, and there are many people strolling in Little Square before the liberation of the North. Our group was already hungry, so we went into a rice noodle shop and ate a bowl of rice noodles with pickled fish, which was very delicious and still has an endless aftertaste.
The next day we went to Ciqikou, an ancient town with Bayu culture. Because it's a holiday, there are so many people here that we can't walk. There are a lot of bloodshot hair, pig's trotters, hot pot bottom materials, tofu pudding and tea houses along the way. The Sichuan sound is full of ears and the rural flavor is strong. Stepping into the streets of the ancient town, snack bars can be seen everywhere, spinning, making sugar, mixing dough, making glutinous rice and making twists, as well as jewelry stores and handicraft shops, which are full of creativity and excitement. But homogenization is very serious. For example, there are many homes in Mahua, Chen Changyin, so it is enough to walk through one street. I'm not interested in shopping except my favorite brown sugar Bazin, so I turned around and walked out. I found a place to drink a bowl of tea and watch Sichuan opera change its face, but the level is very amateur and I don't like it very much. You must choose a good restaurant and listen to it next time.
In the evening, I came to Hongyadong, the legendary realistic version of Spirited Away, which really made me ecstatic!
The night view of Hongya Cave is very beautiful. The Diaojiao Building in Sichuan and Chongqing is on the edge of the cliff, which is layered and staggered, standing by the mountain, hidden in the green forest, and can't see the bottom of the cliff in the jungle. Hold up a narrow red lantern, bright yellow light, set off the wooden house as brightly lit, lively but not noisy, quiet but not lonely. The Yangtze River flows in front of the cliff, and the riverside is green, adding a bit of agility. The slender Qiansimen Bridge spans the river, bringing a modern and tough geometric component. On the other side, the glittering and translucent glass house-Chongqing Grand Theatre faces each other across the river, with lights at the mouth of Jiangbei. This is exactly the same as Spirited Away's dream, which makes people feel very excited.
There are many antique stone carvings in Hongya Cave, and there is a night market on the lower floor. I went to a stone shop, gambled on a half-opened jade and made a bracelet with very beautiful color, which felt like a beautiful gift from this dreamy place.
What's even more amazing is that starting from Hongya Cave, walk several hundred meters up the river, go through the parking lot in an alley, take the elevator to the top floor and return to Jie Fangbei directly. It turns out that Hongyadong and Jie Fangbei are very close, just at different heights of a mountain. Let me have a feeling of space crossing. Surprise.
Chongqing high-speed train takes 2 hours to Chengdu.
Kuanzhai Lane is a famous blue brick residence in Qing Dynasty, which has a beautiful and elegant atmosphere. Now it has become a commercial street, which is not good enough. Only a few buildings can show the leisure of life at that time. There are old turtles and small goldfish in the pool that enters the door. There is a small stone bridge and two open quadrangles on the pool, and there is a touch of red flowers by the window sill door. It is really comfortable. The giant panda statue in Kuanzhai Lane is the children's favorite. The children all ran, kissed, scratched their tails and hugged. There is also a bronze man standing in the street. He didn't ask you to take pictures. He really thought it was a dummy. He was shocked when he heard a voice.
Wuhou Temple and Jinli are in the same place. I went to the exclusive sale of the book, and I felt sad at that time, looking for traces of the past.
Where is the temple of the famous Prime Minister? In a deep pine forest near the Silk City, the green grass in spring stained the steps, and the oriole was summoned for the third time, which aggravated his state affairs. He gave his sincerity to two generations, but before he could conquer, he died and the heroes cried their coats.
Wuhou Temple itself is actually very small, but the scale of the external ancillary buildings is several times larger. Of course, there is no Bai Sensen at the door, and there is no green grass on the reflective table. The main temple is dedicated to Wu Houxiang, flanked by his children and subordinates, and there are poems paid by the ancients on the wall. The imaginary temple of Wuhou should have traces of Wuhou's life, his joys and sorrows, and the feelings that the world admires or criticizes. Originally, he was invited to come down from the cottage, but when he died, he should live in a quiet and secluded place, accompanied by the aura of smoke in the mountains. But now many historical sites are more and more alike, and the supporting buildings are more magnificent than the main body, but they are still the same, and they can't complement each other with the main body, so they are helpless. Jinli, like Kuanzhai Lane, is also a cultural and creative street. But it is very close to nature, water system and Woods, and it is very scattered. My friend said that there are many bars in Kuanzhai Lane and Jinli, but I don't drink or bar. I don't know what it tastes like.
The next day, we drove to Dujiangyan. It takes about 1.5 hours to drive from Kuanzhai Lane to Dujiangyan, which is really worth seeing. Dujiangyan, known as the oldest water conservancy project still in use, makes people sigh that the simplest management method can last the longest. When you come to Dujiangyan, the first thing you see is the south bridge downstream of the bottle mouth, which is very beautiful and looks like a magnificent pavilion from a distance. When you look closer, you can see the carved beams and painted buildings, and the promenade on the bridge is picturesque and beautiful. The inland river under the bridge is the greenest river I have ever seen. It should really be a poem "The riverside is as green as blue". Just look at the water, the water is flowing happily, like a cheerful green belt, which is very pleasing to the eye and full of vitality. It is this inland river that gave birth to Bashu civilization and created a land of abundance. Walking through the South Bridge and eating fish in the seafood shop on the shore, people sit on the shore, but they seem to be sitting on a boat, and there is always a feeling of being on cloud nine. Fresh seafood is delicate, tender and fresh.
Enter the scenic spot from the main entrance of Dujiangyan, and go upstream from the downstream, followed by Baokou, Sha Fei Weir and Yu Zui. The bottle mouth is a waterway dug from the mountain, and the part leaving the mountain is called a pile, which has the function of controlling the water flow. We can check the bottle mouth directly from the observation deck above the pile. Walking along the ropeway, you can watch the flying sand weir at close range, which plays the role of discharging sand and discharging flood. In the dry season, it is a smooth road, and in the flood season, Neijiang floods are discharged into the outer river from here. Going up along the river bank, the Erwang Temple on the other side is hidden in the green hills. At the end of the road is a fish mouth. Yuzui is a diversion dam built in the middle of the river, which divides the turbulent Minjiang River into Waijiang River and Neijiang River. Flood discharge from the outer river and irrigation from the inner river. Looking from a distance, the Minjiang River winds forward, and the water mist fills the air, which is natural and awe-inspiring
When coming to Sichuan, the giant panda is a must-see for many foreign friends. Adult giant pandas are lazy and unwilling to move when sitting on the ground. Their legs are short and their ears are small, but they have a big and soft body surrounded by bamboo shoots. They wriggled and grabbed one, peeled off the shell with their mouths and munched on the fresh bamboo shoots inside. Can they eat? While eating, grinning stupidly, revealing a slow and leisurely satisfaction. Young giant pandas are more active, and some are hanging on old trees. It really worries people how to go down as long as they are stupid. Some people sit on the ground peeling bamboo shoots, others lie on their backs and kick their legs.
As the saying goes, "When you were young, you never left Sichuan." Chongqing is a distinctive city with conservative tranquility and upward vitality. The girls here have the clarity of a small jasper, and the people here may not be fashionable, but they insist on their own attitude towards life. Compared with Chongqing, Chengdu is softer and more open. People here like playing mahjong and drinking tea by the roadside. Vendors will stop to look at the cards and seem to forget that they have to do business. People don't want to jump out so ferocious and become the winner of the competition, but they have a tireless pursuit of life and are full of love. Slow, but not procrastinating. In this salty and suitable living condition, people become particularly friendly. If the car on the roadside is not parked well, it will block the road. Some uncles will teach them, but they can't do anything at all, so they will reverse the car. Pastry chefs on the roadside will chat and say, "Buy one for each flavor and share it with colleagues." Everything is light, sweet and moist.
I think that in the future, people who come out of such cities may have more souls than those who come out of first-tier cities.
