My hometown is Laiyang, although this is just an ordinary town, but the Laiyang pears produced here are enough to make you dream and never tire of eating.

The peel of Laiyang pear is yellow-green, rough and with brown rust spots. The fruit-shaped head is thick and the tail is thin, and the calyx is concave. On the surface, it is not beautiful, but after peeling, it holds a thick and hard fruit stalk, just like a milky snow cake. Its meat is tender, juicy and sweet, and its taste is crisp and sweet. It has a unique flavor and is the top grade of pears. In addition, the sugar content of Laiyang pear is as high as 9.76%, which is 2 ~ 3% higher than that of ordinary pear, and it contains many nutrients such as organic acids and vitamins, so it is a delicious fresh fruit. It is listed as a royal tribute in history and has a long reputation in the north and south.

Laiyang pears have been planted in Laiyang for more than 400 years, mainly distributed on the banks of Qingshui River and the river beaches on the east bank of Xianhe River, especially in Hongtu Cliff, Qianhoufafang, Luergang, Xiaogezhuang, Zhaowangzhuang, and Daxiaotaozhang. Among them, there is an old pear king in Luer Port who is over 400 years old and still bears fruit every year. Whenever ten thousand mu recovers, pear blossoms are in full bloom, like a piece of white snow, which shines brightly and beautifully on mountains, countryside and cottages. In autumn, there is another scenery in the pear garden: the pear branches in the snake tray are fruitful and fragrant.

Laiyang pear is a sweet and fresh fruit, but it is not easy to preserve for a long time. Laiyang pear can be stored for more than 200 days by cold air storage.

Laiyang has not only delicious food, but also many interesting things.

One of the old "eight scenic spots" in Laiyang-Qizilianfeng is located in Gaogezhuang and Yangjun Town, 40 kilometers southeast of Laiyang City. The mountains here are continuous, the peaks are undulating, the valleys are lush, and the trees and wild flowers are fragrant. It is a fascinating place.

The Kangxi edition of Laiyang County Records records its victory: "There are seven mountains in the south of the county, with a big seam in the middle and seven seams beside it. If the child is natural, it is worth the clear sky and Wan Li. You can see it when you climb up, but when you see an isolated island through the clouds, the peaks cut jade, such as opening a picture scroll! "

According to legend, there was a "Tianhou Palace" on the top of the main peak of Qizishan in the Tang Dynasty, where a queen once lived, so it was called Niangniang Mountain. Next to the seven peaks are connected, next to the side, equal to each other, just like mother and son, affectionate and thought-provoking. Therefore, the ancients listed it as "Eight Scenes of Laiyang" and called it "Seven Peaks", which went down in history. The Republic of China edition of Laiyang County Records. According to legend, "Huangshan Mountain, Fangshan Mountain, Sanjia Mountain, Xianlong Mountain, Changling Mountain, Niangniang Mountain, Erqi Mountain and Jiuding Mountain are the giant peaks in the southeast, with seven sons as the peak and Niangniang Mountain as the main peak." Mountains compare with people, and people sympathize with mountains. Zhang Ruizheng, a scholar in the Qing Dynasty, has a poem praising: "Furong is as high as seven peaks and as broken as cotton." The land is near the sea, and it is late in the day and late in the autumn. "There is also a poem in Wanyou, a magistrate of Laiyang County in the Qing Dynasty:" The island is proud, and the peaks are waiting for dawn. "This is definitely a scene where clothes and music add Xiajin's emerald color at night. "

Today, the scenery of Niangniang Mountain is still fresh. Every time I step into the foot of the mountain and look up at the mountains, I see a series of peaks and petals, just like a mother and son snuggling together to talk, like a lotus flower out of water. If you climb to the top of the mountain, you can see the vast sea in the south of Shannan, with water and sky, and a little white sails. You suddenly feel broad-minded, your eyes shine, the north of the mountain is flat and fertile, and the roads are criss-crossing, interwoven into a colorful brocade. Bow your head, the clouds are misty, and the cliff is like a beautiful painting screen. Being there is refreshing. Because of a poem: "Win the even peak of seven sons, and cut hibiscus at the same height." The scenery is like towering rocks, and it is like a loving mother playing with her children. "
