In Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, most people who like to drive cars know Siming Mountain in Ningbo, where there is a provincial road S2 13 running through the mountains.
It starts from Yuyao to Xikou Town, Fenghua, Ningbo in the north, with a total length of 64 kilometers and a drop of 100 meters to 1000 meters. The scenery is pleasing to the eye, changing with the alternation of four seasons, and it is a temple-level existence in the eyes of drivers.
Xinjiang is not as barren as Tibet. Villages along the way have clean accommodation. The food cooked by the farmhouse is delicious. If you are tired from running, you can always find a place to have a rest and then compete with the corner.
This whole straight line is relatively flat and wide, and you can enjoy the mountains and rivers along the way with a relaxed mood; There are also particularly steep back bends and challenging hairpin bends, which increase the fun and excitement of running mountains.
It's just that the normal highway can't give full play to the advantages of Citroen's chassis, and the winding and narrow mountain road is the suitable venue for PSA to play itself.
The most powerful theory
Siming Mountain is a mountain, but it is more than just a mountain. There are many national 4A-level and 5A-level scenic spots in the territory, such as Siming Lake, Shilin Ancient Village, Danshan Chishui and Siming Mountain National Forest Park, which are all refreshing natural scenery.
However, the scenic spot is famous and there are many tourists and social vehicles. To this end, Rutting Jun chose Luting, a small village that few people pay attention to. This is a small village with incomplete development and relatively little traffic.
It takes about three or three and a half hours to get there from Shanghai along the expressway. My personal suggestion is to take Shanghai-Kunming and Changtai, and finally take the Hangzhou Bay Ring Expressway and enter Yuyao from the west.
This is the deer pavilion that entered from the foot of the mountain along 0 12 county road. This road is more interesting than the other side, with countless bends, and it is not a five-line hairpin bend, but an N-line hairpin bend.
Usually, after this turn back, there will be another sharp turn 50 meters ahead. Although there were no cameras along the way, there were almost no cars. Even so, there is no chance to fully open the throttle, and I dare not step on it.
This road is not wide, only two cars are allowed to pass side by side, and there is no street lamp. When running, it really feels like the initials d.
▲ The mountain road is like a snake.
In these narrow places, three or four seconds may not be effective, and high horsepower may not be able to exert its advantages. More importantly, the control of the automobile chassis on the body.
What metaphysics is chassis kung fu?
Simply put, there are some cars that you dare to drive to death, because you can feel the support and road information of the whole car. When you turn a corner, the car will tell you that the suspension can support the car body and the tires can support the ground. You know exactly what to do next.
Some cars get tired when they step on the accelerator and brake slightly. The most direct suspension can't be pulled, and the body shakes like a big ship. Moreover, you know nothing about tire grip and have no idea about vehicle dynamics, so naturally you dare not step on the accelerator.
This feeling is like playing Boss in a game. One is that you have a bottom in your heart, and the more you fight, the smoother you get. Finally, you successfully passed the customs. The next time you play, you will start to think about how to get through customs quickly and without injury.
The second kind is purely a lack of heart, and there is no law of Boss's position. If I beat it, I will fight with my eyes open, but I won't be in the mood to fight next time.
It's not just the curve that reflects the chassis kung fu. The straight line of this road is angular and undulating continuously. A car that is too soft, whether it is stepping on the accelerator or braking, will definitely move a lot, which is not conducive to handling.
It was already dark when I went up the mountain. Even with the high beam on, the visibility in the mountains is very low. Fortunately, C5 Aircross gave me enough confidence, and I didn't feel burdened when running. This is not only interesting, but also safe.
After running this section of 0 12 county road, the destination Luting Village is already welcoming me-all kinds of rain modes can be switched at will, which should be a warm welcome, haha.
▲ I happened to meet Grain Rain, and it has been raining heavily and drizzling.
Chuchuzhong village
Luting is a township under the jurisdiction of Yuyao City, Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province, China. It is located in the southeast of Siming Mountain and adjacent to Ningbo City in the east. With a total area of 70.45 square kilometers, it governs 12 administrative villages with a permanent population of about 20,000.
Although the area is very large, the residents here are scattered in every corner of the mountain like Tibet in Xinjiang. Most of them live in old people's homes and may not have been out of the mountains several times in their lives.
Nakamura is one of the villages, with an area of only 8.2 square kilometers and a total population of about 2,000. This is not a small village. According to the Travel Notes of Siming Mountain in the late Ming Dynasty, Nakamura can be traced back to the early Tang Dynasty and has a history of thousands of years.
▲ Primitive water town
There are several theories about the origin of Nakamura's name:
First of all, it is not far from Feng Ping Rock in the center of Siming Mountain, or the distance from Yuyao, Ningbo and Fenghua is equal, so it is called Nakamura.
Secondly, it is related to the balance between the two most popular surnames Gong and Zheng. It is said that the former lived first, but the latter has a large population. Zheng didn't want Gong's surname to be Gong Village, and finally negotiated to name it after Nakamura, taking the golden mean.
It was almost 8 o'clock when we arrived. Find the "Yuyao Mountain Sisters" hotel booked online. Traveling in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai is a bit good. There is no need to worry about backward infrastructure and no signal. High-voltage lines and cables will be built for you directly in the mountains.
The hotels here are all integrated with food and accommodation. Upstairs is accommodation, downstairs is eating, and the main food is native chicken, fish and bamboo shoots. Due to the original ecological reasons, I can't communicate with my boss.
They live in the mountains, speak local dialects close to Shanghai dialect, and can't speak Mandarin at all. I only know "Allah" and "Allah", and the scene was once very embarrassing.
The boss smiled and finally ordered boiled chicken and braised bamboo shoots with the help of a young man. These things are very cheap, only selling for tens of dollars. But the taste of this shop is average, the chicken skin is not crisp, and the chicken is not very strong.
Too much soy sauce cooked by braised bamboo shoots is too salty, which takes away the sweetness of bamboo shoots and is undoubtedly good. If the taste is lighter, you can get a higher score.
▲ White-cut chicken
▲ Braised bamboo shoots that burn like braised pork.
After eating and drinking, I walked around the village for a while at night. The air in the mountains is very comfortable. I can't wait to take a few more breaths to remind my head of this cool feeling.
Unlike the over-commercialized water town or Yunnan, there are basically no people here, no pubs in line, no endless folk songs, only the sound of gurgling streams and occasional insects.
▲ Nakamura Covered Bridge was built in the early 1970s.
(early) morning
When the morning sun shines into the mountain through the Woods, the whole picture of Nakamura is fully displayed in front of you.
In the middle of the village, there is a Luxiao River, which originates from Donggang Mountain and Jinling area. There is no pollution at all, and it is green. You can see the stone under it from any angle.
The forest coverage rate is over 85%. The mountains are surrounded by virgin forests, and the ecological environment is well protected. According to villagers, wild boar will steal food from time to time.
Nakamura is arranged in a strip along the Daxi River. In addition to these hotels and restaurants in the front row, there are still traditional houses with stone piles and wooden wedges in the back, which is a typical representative of ancient villages in eastern Zhejiang.
Interestingly, almost every family planted green onions in front of their doors. When they withered, no one picked them for cooking. It may be a beautiful symbol here.
Nakamura does have the visual sense of Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Garden. This side of the stream is the house where people live, and the other side is the vegetable field at the foot of the mountain. It is rare for people to live in harmony with the environment. This is the life scene of "leisurely seeing Nanshan".
As an unknown tourist area, Nakamura has only a few small scenic spots, the most famous of which is Baiyun Bridge. On the west side of the bridge, the upper part is "Singing for profit at the boundary of lingering sound, Erjiu and Sanjing", and the lower part is "Village (Village) and Gong Zhengqing's Millennium in An Lan".
On the east side of the bridge, there are also a pair of bridges, "White water crosses Yao Hong Road to connect the north and south, and the cloud village leaves the moon to draw echoes". On the outside of the arch slab at the top of the bridge, the words "Baiyun Bridge" are engraved on the right side, indicating that it was built in 1890.
However, there is no awareness of cultural relics protection here, perhaps because its popularity is too low. This 130-year-old ancient bridge is allowed to visit at will.
About 50 meters upstream of Baiyun Bridge, there is a fairy temple, which is the public temple in Nakamura. The local residents worship White King, but they don't know who this White King is.
Referring to other kings' temples and local traditions in Zhejiang, "White King" is probably the "Dongyue Emperor", that is, the "Taishan God", which has several functions pursued by working people, such as dominating life and death, consolidating the country and people, and promoting to a higher position and making a fortune.
According to the above introduction, Xiansheng Temple was built in the Southern Song Dynasty, and the ancient stage in the temple is the oldest existing stage in Ningbo. Unfortunately, I was repairing it on the day I arrived and missed the opportunity to shake hands with history.
Actually, Nakamura is very small. You can basically read it in an hour and a half. People who come here usually go south and then take a winding mountain road to Bailu Village.
White deer has no white deer.
This road is no less fun than the aforementioned 0 12 county road. It takes about 20 minutes to drive at 12 km, and the average speed is only 35 km/h. With the increase of altitude in the latter part, more and more dense fog added excitement to driving.
On the other hand, these places are all related to "deer". Huang Zongxi wrote in the Annals of Siming Mountain that Kong You, a hermit in Nanliang, saved a deer with an arrow and simply built a pavilion to treat the deer. This is the "deer pavilion".
Luddin was brilliant for a while. By the early 1990s, it was already one of the most developed towns in Yuyao. At that time, Lvting Industrial had an annual output value of 23 billion yuan and owned Zhejiang TV Factory, the largest enterprise in Yuyao at that time.
Only later, the municipal government decided to move industrial enterprises to Yuyao. After the economic pillar of Luting was transferred in the 1990s, the development of this area entered a stagnant stage. Over the years, this area has been transformed into a tourist attraction by virtue of its innate advantages.
White deer is not small. Lion Peak observation deck at the top of the mountain is known as the most beautiful observation deck in Siming Mountain and one of the top ten observation decks in Ningbo.
This observation deck is located at the commanding height surrounded by mountains. Standing on it, there is quite a sense of shock that "other mountains are dwarfed under the sky". . If you come here in autumn, you will definitely see more colors, such as yellow, green and red, just like a color palette knocking over the world.
Another part of the observation deck is the glass plank road, which looks short, but when you stand on it and look at your feet, you are still a little worried about the unstable quality.
In addition to overlooking, you can also go deep into the mountains and have a close contact with nature. Nakamura and Bailu are connected by a national fitness trail with a length of 10 km, which is divided into five levels, each with different scenery.
The first floor is a stream, the second floor is a secondary forest, the third floor is mainly set in bamboo forests and tea gardens, the fourth floor is farmhouse music scattered in the mountains, and the last floor is azaleas.
Because of the time and weather, I finally chose to run away from the mountain. At this time, it is only about 1 1: 30, and I am ready to go back to Nakamura for dinner.
This time, I didn't consider the "mountain girl" I ate last time, but there were several stores that really bothered me about this difficult choice for some time. According to experience, in such places, sometimes restaurants with local names are the most authentic and delicious.
Therefore, I eliminated the well-known "I was lucky to meet Xiao" shop and chose a crowded "inn". It turns out that I didn't make a mistake.
Just as I was ordering, my uncle brought a plate of steaming, fragrant boiled chicken. I didn't even think about it, so I ordered one right away, and then I ordered boiled fat fish.
Until now, I am still interested in going to this store to eat chicken and fish again. Crispy white-cut chicken will become delicious as long as it is dipped in soy sauce. Besides, this kind of fish is tender, the soup is white, even the head of the fish is chewed clean, and there are no swim bladder and fish eyes. The price is also very real, but it is more than 100 yuan anyway.
The cost of this two-day and one-night trip is less than that of 250 yuan, but the driving pleasure, scenery and food you enjoy are worth at least 65,438+0,000 yuan, because all the scenic spots in Nakamura and Bailu are free.
Siming Mountain is like a treasure house, which contains more than just big scenic spots. These small villages are worth exploring and excavating. They retain the original ecological environment and content, which is unknown to most people, but they leave a good impression on network celebrities far higher than scenic spots.
I don't know anything about the scenic spots among online celebrities, but this is a place I have been to once and want to come again.
In a sense, these villages happen to be the same as French cars, and not many people outside know about them, but after a deep contact, it is hard to forget this unique and disappearing charm.
