My hometown Changshu is a thousand-year-old city in the south of the Yangtze River. Although the solar term of heavy snow has passed and the north is already covered with snow, the most beautiful late autumn in Jiangnan has just appeared.
Late autumn is the most poetic season. Red, yellow and warm colors, coupled with the warm sunshine in early winter, always make people lament the shortness of time.
Looking for a night, I went to Shajiabang scenic spot, which is more than ten kilometers away from the city. It's better to miss the taste of Shajiabang braised chicken than to enjoy autumn.
Wandering around like this is a pleasure. Looking back, I met his eyes.
When you come here every season, you will find something new.
Whether it's a stroll in Hengjing Old Street, a cup of tea in Chunlai Teahouse, or a boat ride through the reed maze, you can do whatever you want.
You can also lament the hard-won life in the humor of the live-action drama "Ludang bonfire".
Shajiabang Scenic Area is located on the bank of Yangcheng Lake in Changshu City, Jiangsu Province, with convenient transportation and close to Shanghai and Suzhou.
It is a national 5A-level tourist attraction and one of the largest ecological wetlands in East China. Thousands of acres of reeds make you forget the hustle and bustle of the city and walk freely.
A hand-cranked boat passed slowly. The boatswain in blue calico drifted away singing boat songs.
In Shajiabang this season, there are red maple leaves and rows of golden ginkgo, and the reeds are half green and half yellow. Even the winding tree-lined paths are beautiful.
In Shajiabang, the wind is swaying and the heart is moving.
The reed flowers by the lake are swaying in the wind. I remember the last time I came here with my parents in summer, as if it were yesterday.
My eyes rested on those burning vines. What a warm life!
I like living in the scenic spot very much. There are two great homestays: Lu Hua Bay in the south of the Yangtze River and Jiuzhu B&B. The quality is very good and the decoration is very artistic in the south of the Yangtze River. And the whole 5A scenic spot can be booked at night, which is quite quiet.
When I met a ginkgo forest, the yellow leaves fell to the ground.
Among countless fallen leaves, I picked one and put it in a book when I got home. This encounter is like the fate of the world. How many people know how to cherish it?
Draw everything in your eyes. Unfortunately, the sun has gone.
Prosperity is gone, and leaves are everywhere. A season of elegance returns to dust. I like the sound of stepping on fallen leaves. What about you?
That afternoon, two people walked for a long time. But the main purpose is to buy a Shajiabang braised chicken in Hengjing Old Street. I chose a gooseberry that day, and it was 75 yuan for a big one. It was really a good deal.
According to local people, almost every household in Shajiabang has an iron pot handed down from generation to generation. Every winter and New Year's holiday, every family will kill their own chickens and ducks.
This chicken stew takes about eight hours. It smells delicious, tastes tender but not rotten, plump and full, and has a lingering fragrance.
Shajiabang is the largest of Yangcheng Lake 18 bays. The water quality here is excellent, and Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs are tender and delicious.
Starting from Hengjing Old Street, I went for a walk in Shaxilong Fishing Garden and bought some hairy crabs for dinner at night. The recent male crabs are all crab paste, all from My Sweetie, with no seasoning.
Summer goes to winter, and year after year, time swims in the promenade of the season.
I took another photo where I took the lotus in summer. The lotus in the pond has become a remnant lotus, looking forward to its full bloom next year.
But this residual lotus is also a beautiful painting in my eyes, like a person who bows his head and says nothing.
The entire Shajiabang scenic area covers an area of more than 6,000 mu. If you are new here, it is easy to get lost. Here you need to slow down, live and feel slowly.
There is also delicious food from Shajiabang. Crabs are at that time, and it is another year to miss them!
