We set off from Shenzhen and got on the Guangzhou-Shenzhen high-speed train in the early morning. After arriving in Guangzhou, we took the subway at Xilang Station and changed to Guangfo Line to reach Foshan. Although the subway is a bit congested, it can avoid long-term traffic jams during rush hours.
Tips: It is suggested to buy Lingnantong Yangcheng Pass Card at Guangzhou Metro Station. The fare is 50 yuan, including 32 yuan's top-up amount, which saves the time of queuing for tickets. This card can be used not only by bus and subway, but also in 265,438+0 cities in Guangdong Province, which is very convenient!
Plans can't keep up with changes. Although I have made all kinds of established plans before I leave, I still can't stand being hungry. As a senior foodie, how can you wronged your stomach? When I was about to arrive at Zumiao subway station, I searched for Foshan's food on my mobile phone and found that the nearest food store was actually a 300-year-old store-Dexinzhai, so I decided to get off at Pujun North Road Station with my companions and take us to Dexinzhai after leaving Exit C of the subway.
It's already noon 12: 30. Although the shop is small, the windows are bright and clean. I have ordered delicious food on the subway. Before I got the menu, I ordered pig's trotters and ribs with sauce. In addition, under the recommendation of the waiter, I ordered a delicious meal and an old fire soup.
Cantonese people's eating habit is to drink soup first, which is just the opposite of our northerners' habit, so 10 yuan's old fire soup came first. Soup is made of ribs, corn, carrots and other ingredients. The soup is rich and mellow, and the temperature is just right. After eating a bowl of old fire soup, the taste buds open instantly.
Dexinzhai's signature food is naturally tied pig's trotters, which is a traditional Foshan food with the same name as blind cake and bamboo queen chicken. There is also a name for tying pig's feet, which is handy. According to legend, during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, there was a "Guan Guan Pavilion" by the Fenjiang River in Foshan for officials to rest. There is a butcher shop in Deji near Guanting. One night, Deji finished his business and was about to close. Suddenly, several officials came and said that an official was going to eat here, and asked Deji to prepare immediately. Yade, the shopkeeper, pickled the leftover meat, pig's trotters and the like with salt water or soaked them in vinegar, and made several dishes with his heart, which was appreciated. The official looked up at the roadside and said, "Ah, this is the only way. I ate pig's trotters today, which is handy. Ok, just call your shop Xinzhai.
After listening to the story, how handy is the pig's trotters after bone removal and reprocessing? Pick up a slice and dip it in two different flavors. Fat but not greasy. No wonder officials are full of praise.
The taste of ribs and sauce is no less relaxed. I thought it was just ordinary ribs. When I took the first bite, I sighed from my heart. How can there be such delicious ribs, but they are not stuffed at all? The meaty mixed sauce lingers in my mouth, and the meat is particularly crisp. The companion said that you can suck and eat, and the word "suck" is also used properly. After careful tasting, the ribs are neither too sweet nor too salty, and a special sauce flavor lingers between the lips and teeth for a long time.
After eating two vegetarian dishes, it's time to have a vegetarian dish for a change. This delicious vegetarian dish is made of edible fungi, yuba, carrots, celery and other seasonal vegetables. Moderately salty and refreshing, it is a perfect ending for the taste of this delicious vegetarian dish.
Price: handy 38 Yuan De Xin Yipin Zhai 30 yuan sauce ribs 40 yuan old fire soup 10 yuan.
On the way to the ancestral temple, I found the Guangdong Cantonese Opera Museum. Although I didn't have much interest in Cantonese opera, I also went in to visit it. The museum tells about the development of Guangdong Cantonese Opera and its famous Cantonese Opera. Interested friends can visit for free with their ID cards (closed on Monday).
Ticket price: free of charge
Game time: 1-2 hours
Walking along the subway line, you can reach the ancestral temple, which was built in the Yuanfeng period of the Northern Song Dynasty and rebuilt in the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. By the early Qing Dynasty, it gradually became a temple building with complete system, rigorous structure and strong local characteristics. In the twenty-fifth year of Guangxu, the ancestral temple was overhauled, forming today's ancestral temple architecture. Foshan Ancestral Temple, Yuecheng Long Mu Temple, Zhaoqing Temple and Guangzhou Chenjia Temple are also called the Three Treasures of Lingnan Ancient Architecture. As can be seen from its status, the ancestral temple is a must-see place in Foshan.
The main hall of the ancestral hall is decorated with 70 pieces of 30 kinds of weapons, which is very spectacular. The ancestral temple is dedicated to the northern emperor, who is said to be the northern water god. Because there were many floods in the Pearl River Delta during the Tang and Song Dynasties, the people of Chancheng invited the Northern Emperor to sit in the Zen City to keep one side safe.
Bypassing the main hall, you can come to Huang Feihong Memorial Hall. There are two wonderful performances in Huang Feihong Memorial Hall, one is a lion dance performance, and the other is a martial arts performance.
There are three lion dances every day, one in the morning is10: 30-1:00, and the other two in the afternoon are14:15-14: 45 and/kloc-0 respectively.
The lion dance performance is divided into two parts, the first part is the welcome of lion dance to tourists, and the second part is plum blossom pile. Every lion has two people performing together, one dancing in the head and the other dancing in the tail. Performers dress up as lions under the sound of gongs and drums, and make various forms of lion interaction with tourists. At the same time, during the performance, the lion dancers need to use various moves to show the southern martial arts, especially the plum blossom pile, which shows the solid martial arts foundation of the performers and the high cooperation between the two sides. That's great!
After enjoying the lion dance performance, they came to Huang Feihong Memorial Hall, where tourists were sitting around waiting for the martial arts performance. In this martial arts performance, Huang Feihong's I-shaped Khufu Boxing, Tiger Crane Boxing, Wire Boxing and Five-Shaped Boxing were displayed. Performers' foreheads all reveal the heroic spirit of martial arts practitioners, and at the same time lament the profoundness of China's martial arts.
While I was still lamenting the wonderful lion dance and martial arts performances, I came to the IP Man Pavilion, where I collected and exhibited detailed information about IP Man and Wing Chun. In addition to my previous understanding of IP Man on the screen, I have a deeper understanding of this martial arts master and Wing Chun master.
After visiting the ancestral temple, I was deeply impressed by the kung fu of two martial arts experts!

It has long been heard that Shunde, Guangdong Province is famous for buffalo milk, so the sugar water in Foshan will incorporate milk elements, such as double skin milk and ginger milk. We found Minxin dessert shop in Lingnan Tiandi next to the ancestral temple. I ordered a pair of lotus seed double skin milk and original double skin milk, which were full of milk flavor. As a northerner, I am not satisfied with this rich milk flavor. It would be too greasy if it weren't for the clear fragrance of lotus seeds.
Although two pairs of double-skin milk are not too sweet, the rich milk taste is really greasy, and the price is more than twice as expensive as the Huiji sweet product that I met by chance later. If you don't like the smell of milk, then popular support is not a good choice.
Price: double skin milk 15 yuan, lotus seed double skin milk 17 yuan.
After coming out of Lingnan Tiandi, I stumbled upon a small shop, Huiji Dessert. I was going to eat something salty and spicy to dilute the sweetness, but I didn't expect to meet a dessert shop again.
Compared with Minxin dessert, Huiji dessert shop is full of popularity in the business circle. Perhaps this is the meaning of travel, and you will encounter an unexpected taste bud trip inadvertently. The store is not big, but the business is very hot and full. We ordered mango sago, tremella syrup and ginger with pork feet.
Sugar water is unexpectedly sweet, not sweet at all. The ginger on pig's feet is actually delicious, which is different from what you eat at noon. Pork feet should be pickled with sweet vinegar and ginger, and the taste is refreshing, especially the sweet vinegar taste of marinade just suppresses the fatness of pig feet. Finally, I learned that Huiji dessert is an old shop frequented by Foshan citizens, with a history of more than 20 years, which can be described as a household name.
Price: Pork Feet Ginger 6.5 yuan Tremella Syrup 3.5 yuan Mango Simi 6 yuan
Today, after a one-day tour in Chancheng, we decided to take a bus to Fengjian Water Town in the evening. Because we couldn't find accommodation in Fengjian Water Town on the Internet, considering the holiday, we decided to stay in Xingtan Town at night and go to Fengjian Water Town the next morning. Fengjianshui Town is about an hour or two's drive from Foshan, and you can transfer to public transportation indoors.
Early in the morning, I took a bus to the rich and frugal water town known as Zhouzhuang in Lingnan. When I got off the bus, I stayed away from the noise of the city. Some of the villagers closed their eyes under the big tree, some chatted after dinner, and some entertained at the card table, which was peaceful and comfortable.
A waterway around the village, 10 kilometers, water and light meet the sky, blue waves rippling, winding, there is endless feeling. Fishing boats not only have the function of fishing, but also take tourists around in waterways that are neither wide nor narrow, but the price is surprisingly high. The price of a fishing boat is about 150 to 250. In short, in my opinion, it is really expensive.
Strolling along the Qingshiban Road in Hazama jade water town, although the degree of commercialization is not as strong as Zhouzhuang and Wuzhen, you can still find reconstruction and shop establishment everywhere. The ancient buildings in Lingnan have experienced historical vicissitudes, leaving only broken tiles and broken walls.
Speaking of the delicacies in Fengjianshui Town, Jun 'an's fried fish cakes, fried milk, sesame paste and steamed pigs are all local specialties, but some delicacies like Jun 'an's steamed pigs have not been enjoyed, so I have never tried to buy them. As for other snacks, the taste is good.
Price: 3 yuan fried milk with sesame sauce 10 yuan fried fish cake 10 yuan.
Ticket price: free of charge
Play time: 3-5 hours
Opening hours: all day
Tips: According to my tour, there are only three or four accommodations in Fengjianshui Town, which are fully booked during the holiday. If you don't have an appointment, it is recommended not to go at night. Fortunately, I decided the night before yesterday, otherwise I might have to sleep in the countryside.
Guangzhou Fangcun Bus Terminal opened a direct shuttle bus to Fengjian Water Town. Ticket price 25 yuan, departure time 9:00, return time 15:30.
After visiting the peak water town, I saw a lot of tourists and traffic jams on my way back. I remind you that the best morning to visit the peak water town on holidays is to feel the tranquility and peace of the water town.
I returned to Foshan from the peak water town and went to Nanfeng ancient stove. On the roadside in front of the scenic spot, I once again found a gourmet restaurant-Ji Feng Noodle Restaurant. After getting off the bus, I went directly to the noodle restaurant and ordered noodles with sea cucumber sauce and wonton beef brisket. Hot sauce with sea cucumber juice and a bowl of noodles can be described as the best in noodles. The breast meat is soft but not hard, and the wonton is thin and thick, which is very satisfying.
If you want to know the pottery culture with a long history in Shiwan, you need to go to Nanfeng ancient stove to appreciate and understand the pottery making technology. In the main building of Nanfeng ancient stove, you can clearly see the making process of pottery.
However, personally, I feel that the commercial atmosphere of Nanfeng ancient stove is too strong, and there are all kinds of pottery sellers everywhere, and the price is slightly expensive. Interested visitors can choose diy pottery when purchasing tickets and experience the making process of pottery by themselves.
Ticket price: 25 yuan
Play time: 2-3 hours
Opening hours: 08:00- 17:00.
Before ending the pleasant trip to Foshan, we decided to have another Huiji dessert. After all, as I said before writing, food is the most important thing for the people!
