October 5, 2021, leaving the ancient city of Pingyao and do not know where to go?
In fact, Pingyao is just over 500 kilometers away from Xi'an, and in one breath, I drove back. The only thing is that it's not easy to run so far, the highway is free, and it's such a good opportunity to just go back.
Just this rain, the whole world is wet. Later, the whole of Shanxi's cultural relics suffered different degrees of flooding. Shanxi compound more, more culture.
In October 2021, sustained high-intensity rainfall made more than 1700 immovable cultural relics in Shanxi suffered varying degrees of danger. Among them, county-level, registered cultural relics and other more serious damage. The article said that since the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, the central and provincial financial resources of Shanxi province for the maintenance and emergency protection of ancient buildings and cultural relics protection units amounted to 1.06 billion yuan. Although cultural relics protection funds have increased over the years, but more than 20,000 ancient buildings in Shanxi heritage, quite a drop in the bucket.
Cultural relics have become an invisible burden, left and right.
These are interjections, back to business. I took the map toward the direction of home, intuition is directly to Luoyang, Luoyang, the ancient city of graceful and elegant, now the construction of good. But the map shows that Luoyang ancient city around always blocked a mess, red. Thinking about grinding half a day, forget it, do not dare to take risks. However, where to go again?
Stare at Yuncheng, Yuncheng a strange city. The first thing you need to do is to get on a certain sound, now everyone is red, everyone is self media, a cell phone is a small universe, the ability to be super huge. The result is that the most popular in the past few days is the new Guijie Street in Yuncheng.
All kinds of videos of Guijie in Yuncheng are spreading out, official introduction, TV station I recommend, the beauty of the personal card, etc., to encourage people, like to go to this place. And the official show, some attractions during the National Day free of charge, free of charge.
Go, go to Yuncheng, just so firmly decided.
Who knows, all the good, all because of the non-stop rain, too much, the rain will be many originally scheduled activities wet, suspended, so that people have to sigh.
The central zone is crowded, dense city, just down the Yuncheng highway soon, began to drive slowly, the road is full of cars, the distance is not far, but walked for a long time.
To the Guijie neighborhood, but just can not find a place to park, turned a big circle, looked at the Guijie grand entrance, just no place to park, continue to go around in circles. The Internet said, Yancheng District Government can park in the courtyard, open to the community, free parking, but when I got here, the door has a blocking bar, the camera shines on my car, prompting me to invalid, not registered and so on. It seems that the information on the Internet is not accurate.
Fortunately, after a detour, we circled back to the north gate of Guijie Street.
At the northern end of the street, on a road with many potholes and in poor condition, we decided to stop. Many cars were parked next to the curb, and Yang and I were too timid to stop. We were too timid to pull over. Plus, there were police cars with their lights flashing and police officers on duty, so we were even more afraid to pull over. Inside that tangle ah, just so many cars parked. I'm not sure how much I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it.
Just quite good, a look up, there is a camera on top of the head, but also the heart. I just look at the opposite side of the car parked haphazardly, the police did not care, and then again, rainy days, it should be fine. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm sure I can.
The newly constructed Guijie gate is magnificent, tall and majestic, ancient, modern construction technology and the combination of ancient architectural style, seems to depict these things, roughly only these words, perhaps their level of competence is not good, will not be able to use more beautiful words to describe.
Gui Street is not as lively as in a video, three or two people, next to the store to sell, but not many customers visit, are from a distance to see two eyes. Perhaps because of the rain, many activities were canceled, and those who wanted to come moved back their footsteps. I wanted to eat here, but looking at the sides, there didn't seem to be any surprise food. It is also possible that the sparse crowd, affecting our excitement, feel that it seems to be very general.
Yuncheng Guijie, the name is carried from Beijing, design ideas, style is borrowed from the Xi'an Datang Night City. The Internet says Yuncheng here, is according to Xi'an Datang Night City to build the net red street, in the opening of the street before the publicity to "Hedong's night city" as the slogan.
The original Guan Gong and Yuncheng is closely linked.
Writing here, I searched for information on the Internet, and found that I actually got Gui and Salted wrong, Gui reads gui, Salted reads gu. Yuncheng this place there is a lake, called Salt Lake, there is the Dead Sea of China said. Salted, is the salt pond. Salted Street is Salt Street. But it's just that Salt Street doesn't sell salt.
There is a Netflix skewer at the south entrance of Salted Street. A certain sound said, said it is a must card place, we make a fuss. It seems to be a lot of people in front of the name, the door is not someone to come, three by three.
I think盬街最终就像平常小店，融入到当地人的生活里去，然而兼有休闲娱乐功能，不一定要成为网红、知名景点。
Objectively speaking, the design of the Salted Street Center is exquisite, with the flavor of Xi'an's Tang Dynasty Night City, but some of the lighting, styling artistry is beyond Xi'an, and this is the hometown of the Duke of Guan, with the Yu Opera circulating, and must be passed through the former salt road. Small bridges and rivers with local customs. Just subject to the ground building restrictions, not as wide and large as the Great Tang Night City.
We saw Salted Street south seems to have a lot of small stores, roughly the old street. We both decided to take a walk.
Sure enough, it did not disappoint, just curious, there are several small stores on both sides of the big plate chicken signs, and it seems to be advertised as if it is very authentic, and it seems that every business is still good, are not like new stores.
I was curious, the big dish chicken is not a snack in Xinjiang. Later, then search online, the big dish chicken is really Yuncheng characteristics, Yuncheng people in Xinjiang on the basis of the big dish chicken, into the local smell, according to the local people's customary hobbies to transform the vitality, into a well-known, eat good, wide spread of the food.
The street is really lively, with big shopping malls, old markets, old food stores, and a lot of pedestrians despite the wet road. The biggest joy was that we found an old store, a local food. Dinner was ready, but we wanted to move on.
There is an unknown world ahead, maybe nothing, just a normal street, even cold, but how do you know if you do not go to see it. There is an old shopping mall, we went in, just remember a lot of people, very lively, but we can not buy anything, is not willing to become the weight in the hands.
Roadside, set up a lot of food stalls. I think, let the stalls of the city are warm city, although this small stalls have a lot of problems, after all, this is a kind of survival, way of life, chopped off, many people can only rely on hard labor. After all, buy snacks, or a craft it. Every day mobile stalls, perhaps behind the support of several people it, perhaps there are elderly parents, perhaps there is a key academic period of the child, perhaps there are hospitalized relatives in need of money, if the family has a mine, who would like to sleep in the wind, in the summer night, in the winter night, in the late night, wind and rain so blowing, drenched, is not just to finish the meal it.
The roadside stand sells roasted gluten, and I like to eat roasted gluten. I decided to taste the Shanxi Yuncheng roasted gluten how, and Xi'an flavor how different. Objectively speaking, the price is about the same, just the general flavor, not as much as the ingredients in Xi'an, maybe I chose this kebab stall is not right, but I feel that I do not want to open a new one, if the taste is not good, how can it last.
Across the street there is an old market, there are many stores open at night, we walked into, I think it's very interesting, just too late, hurried, I'm still ready to buy what the market mouth of the cake to come, was stopped by Yang.
Another big feature of Yuncheng is spicy hot, but also been improved. For example, this Zhang Ermao spicy skewer store, we were attracted to it when we passed by, inside the people streaming, go a wave to come a wave, I also went inside to examine a circle, the main spicy skewer, there are thin rice, cakes, marinated chicken wings, chicken legs and so on. So then come across what, we both do not have much excitement, the heart is on the mind.
Further on, the streetlights were a bit dark. We then retreated back, time is not early, there is a time to say goodbye. The street is very long, a lot, walk is not finished, a lot of road, can not think of all walk, always have to leave, respectively.
We went straight to Zhang Ermao spicy string, his store has become a famous store, this is already several chain stores in one of the store. The store, observed for a while, eat what? See what people eat, what we eat. Wall posted AB package, we chose B package, a bowl of spicy hot, a small portion of spicy skewers, a baked cake, a bowl of rice soup (in fact, it is thin rice), spicy hot flavor, kebab is very strong, I feel that the taste is not that kind of amazing, but the usual taste in the lingering taste, that is, the aftertaste is very full of the residual fragrance of the raw materials, cooking did not drown out the natural color of the ingredients.
Of course, this taste, or eat a delicious, is this his family cake, really full of flavor. I grew up as a child eating noodles from Shaanxi people, really really surprised me. Shanxi people do not lose eating noodles masters, cakes how so fragrant, than I ate in Xi'an cakes are fragrant. Wheat aroma or what kind of aroma, in any case, that kind of aroma is deep into the spirit, let a person all over the body pleasure. Yang also marveled at how the cakes were so delicious. Finally, we both said in unison, "Let's buy another cake. So I stood in line to buy another pie, the cashier girl was a little surprised, why just buy a pie.
On the way back, there was a small stall, a tricycle, the owner was a little girl. The things on the cart were a delight. A large plate, which is full of soup, bubbling hot, pot with tofu skin and other such skewers. The pot was heated by a stove. I wondered, is this a family heirloom? The girl's dress looks also very fashionable, about 20 years old, is their own stall or for their parents, maybe it is a girl's camp! Hey, just by speculation, there can be countless answers.
The two of us couldn't help but buy 5 yuan of skewers, Yang said the flavor is not as good as Zhang Ermao. It is also a experience, happy flavor, the heart is satisfied.
Walking, there is an underground 1 yuan supermarket, loud speaker ads sell, we were attracted again. To be honest, inside things really affordable, just we can't use it for the time being, want to buy and don't want to buy, so tangled. But also shopped a lot of fun, just do not know what should buy.
We returned to Salted Street, the door of the theater is performing Feng Yang flower drums, an actress playing both the daughter and mother, the voice is crisp, really good, we have been hearing the end. What doll ah! Mom ah! What a doll doll ah! Mom, mom, mom! But it's fun, the sound penetration, pleasant sound can still recall.
And then back, we took a closer look at the Salted Street, the lights are on, Salted Street at night is very beautiful, tall and powerful Guan Gong deterrence of the four sides, the middle of the water stone bridge, carved flowers, salt transport history and so on the scene, one by one to show, it is worthwhile to slowly enjoy.
Next to a fast-food restaurant did not hear the name of the advertisement, chicken legs, chicken wings, what 10 yuan a few, attracting people to go inside. The two of us also went to join in the fun, bought three chicken legs, a bucket of drinks out, as if taking advantage of what is cheap.
Really want to go. When I was opening the car door, I accidentally looked to the side, there is a bakery. Hey, there is no good, since childhood, eat noodles, eat buns, wheat as the main food, almost never eat rice since childhood, this is called the beginning of the heart is not changed, is like the cake, hot cake just baked out, really fragrant ah!
I rushed in, the owner of the store is a man, is slowly and methodically do the cake, next to an acquaintance is accompanied by him to chat. The plate is next to the stove, the stove has a baking pan, baked cake special, not electric stove, is a carbon fire stove. His family's cakes have characteristics, each cake is like a bracelet model, the center hole, surrounded by the circle baked golden golden, there are other cakes. Just buy the round ring cake.
I hurried to take the car, we both hurried to bite, wow! Really, too delicious, too Mrs. delicious. Can not help but let people shout out.
I was thinking of spending another night in the service area, tomorrow morning to Shaanxi Tongguan paranoia a meat sandwich. The first thing I want to do is to get the money to pay for the food, but I don't want to have to pay for the food, so I have to pay for the food. It's better to go home early, let's go! Let's go! This National Day trip comes to an end, tomorrow back to Xi'an to see the streets of Xi'an.
