Get off the expressway, turn into the provincial highway, cross Conghua urban area, enter Guangcong first-class highway, 2 kilometers away from Conghua Hot Spring, and turn right in the direction of Shimen Forest Park according to the signs. In the field, a neat village road took us to the forest park. Taste delicious farm dishes and feel the hospitality of farmers. Under the introduction of the proprietress, we ordered steamed chicken with red onion, local roast duck, shredded pepper and cauliflower, and boiled keel with fish gall.
Sitting alone under the litchi tree, the breeze caressed my face, and the courtyard was quiet and familiar, as if I had returned to my childhood.
I believe this truth: the most beautiful scenery is on the road, you are not in a hurry. Control the speed below 70km and drive slowly on the village road. We put down the window and opened the skylight of the car that we had no chance to use in Guangzhou. At this time, we really experienced the advantages of the car skylight: the blue sky overhead and the breeze blowing into the car are very cool and sunny, which makes us feel refreshed after suffering from dust and exhaust gas in Guangzhou.
Conghua Xitou Village-a famous scenic spot in Xitou with natural scenery-Lions and elephants stay together. Conghua Liangkou Xitou Village has no famous mountains and rivers, nor does it have a prominent reputation. Only ancient buildings and simple villagers coexist quietly and uncontested. Even the fact that this is the source of Liuxi River is unknown to many people. Everything is vague and unknown. This is a place suitable for meditation. A country night, a cup of tea, a book and a leisurely mood are enough.
After more than two hours' drive, I finally arrived at Xitou Village, Liangkou, Conghua. The village is very small and unusually quiet, and only chickens and dogs can be heard. As soon as I entered the village entrance, I saw a green river with green hills and trees reflecting, which was quite quiet. This is the real source of Liuxi River, hence the name of Xitou Village.
At dusk, the continuous stone houses in the village look quite charming in the sunset. I like walking aimlessly in the village at dusk, looking at the yellow hair hanging in the village and enjoying myself; Watch the villagers work at sunrise and rest at sunset; Look at the smoke rising at dusk.
Now, every household here still uses firewood for heating and cooking. I like this completely unadorned life. There is no industry, no business and no tourism development, and even the cell phone signal is intermittent. Coming here, people don't know what happened today, just like going back to the countryside in the 1970s and 1980s.
Conghua Xitou Village, a historical building, has gone through nearly two centuries of ups and downs, and it is still quietly in the corner of the village. Although Kim may not be famous, the house has been abandoned for a long time. If we don't look at it harshly, it can still satisfy the simple psychology of urbanites looking for the past and asking for seclusion. Under the leadership of local villagers, we pushed open the big house built by a big family in this ancient village, and the buildings everywhere showed the wisdom and originality of our predecessors. In front of the house is a half-moon pond, which is mainly used for fire prevention. After passing through the inner hall, the outer hall and the patio, it is a defensive tower-Anning Building. The wall is about 1 m thick, and the corners and windows are made of granite, which is extremely strong. There is a water injection hole above the gate of the watchtower to defend against enemy fire. Anning building has four floors, with wells downstairs and granaries on the top floor, which can ensure that the watchtower has no water and food for two months.
The basic shape of the gold still exists, but after years, the gray carvings on its walls have gradually become mottled. At present, local agricultural tools, such as plows, harrows, wood grain blowers, stone mills, stone mortars, and the Eight Immortals Platform, etc. It is also displayed in its inner hall and outer hall, which is very Hakka-style.
Conghua Xitou Village-Peasant Cuisine Bamboo Rice The characteristic here is farm dishes, and Xitou produces a lot of bamboo, so bamboo rice has become a big sign. The chef told us that all the bamboo used in cooking bamboo tube rice has not been reused, so the steamed rice really has a smell of bamboo, which is different from the reuse in restaurants in the city. The so-called bamboo tube rice has gained a reputation. Another special dish that must be tasted is salted egg yolk tofu. There is no doubt that tofu is very good, tender and fragrant, and it melts in the mouth.
