I remember when I was a child, I had to cross the Qingjiang River every time I went out to pay New Year greetings to my relatives.
At that time, there were only Qingjiang Sister Bridges on the Qingjiang River, but there were not so many bridges now, including the Dongmen Huangshi Bridge.
When we reached Wufeng Mountain on the opposite side, we relied on boatmen to ferry us across the river.
The wooden boat like a crescent moon floated on the clear water. We sat on the side of the boat, put our hands on the river to make waves, and listened to the boatman shouting "Hey, hey, hey,"
, watching their graceful rowing movements is really unforgettable.
I don't like visiting other people's houses at first, but because I can take the boat for free, I am eagerly looking forward to visiting relatives during the New Year.
There are quite a lot of people going back and forth every time. There are boat after boat of people, which is really lively.
However, when the bridge over the river was built, the wooden boats on the river disappeared, and so did the boatmen.
Later, because there were many factories on both sides of the river, such as paper mills, etc., and a lot of domestic garbage was discharged directly into the river, resulting in a lot of foam on the river, the clear river water turned into black water, emitting a strong stench
the taste of.
In recent years, with the establishment of sewage treatment plants and the government's great efforts in treatment, the water in Qingjiang River has become crystal clear again.
The last time I went to the Bund in Shanghai, I saw rows of garbage floating in the Huangpu River with the surging water. I also saw a turtle on the shore trying its best to climb ashore. Unfortunately, the river bank was too high and it couldn't escape from the darkness and filth.
swimming out of the river.
At that time, I thought that the rivers in such a luxurious metropolis were not as well managed as the rivers in our small cities. Our government promised to return the city to green mountains and green waters, and it has indeed done so.
The only regrettable thing is that the upstream river is dammed to store water for power generation. Therefore, during the dry season, the water in the Qingjiang River often stops flowing, causing the beautiful jade belt to suddenly disappear and leaving many fish and other river creatures stranded.
Death, the ecological environment on both sides of the river was destroyed.
The beauty of Enshi lies in its high-quality air, good environmental protection, large area of ??forest coverage, nourishment and surrounding Qingjiang River, unique natural environment, as well as its simple Tujia culture, customs, and various selenium-rich products.
and unique Tujia snacks.
Our hometown needs a beautiful ecological environment, and our rivers need to endlessly bring vivid and beautiful scenes to our lives.
In the morning, our family of three were walking along the Qingshui Corridor. My daughter suddenly became childlike and walked down the river along the stone stairs piled with fallen leaves. The river was very shallow and dry on both sides. The pebbles were exposed. We walked on the stones and looked at the river and the trees on both sides.
The scenery, it's really different from what we saw up there.
The river is crystal clear, reflecting the branches, tall buildings and long bridges on both sides.
We walked from under the Qingjiang Bridge to the Fengyu Bridge. The road was not long, but we walked slowly and carefully appreciated the clear river water under the warm winter sun, the blue sky, the flowing river water, and the sky and water.
Every time I see such a beautiful sight, I am moved and feel like I am back to those carefree days of my childhood.
