After a day's rest, Shuanglang set out at 8 o'clock in the morning, aiming at the ancient town of Xizhou, which was the hardest part of the trip. Everyone's feet were swollen, and it became a
hard job to put on shoes. Our goddess simply walked forward with her shoes shining
in both hands.
after a long trek all morning, I finally crossed Shangguan
and began to turn to the other side of Erhai Lake. Xizhou is in sight.
I had lunch at a farmer's restaurant at noon, and I didn't rest
. I continued to travel along the Dali Line, which was the most
boring and the worst road.
However, what we didn't expect was that it just happened to catch up with the blooming season of the flowers in Renliyi, which we passed through, and we were really
excited, and the hard work along the way was also reduced
.
This should be regarded as the most exciting moment
since the departure of Shuanglang Ancient Town. Rape flowers in Xizhou originally began to bloom in February
.
After five o'clock in the afternoon, I finally arrived at Xizhou Ancient Town. Everyone
was exhausted, but I still couldn't restrain this
joy. I felt like I was at home, and finally I could
catch my breath.
Accommodation is very easy to find. When you enter the ancient town, you will find a
very affordable inn. Check in, take a shower, and then
sleep comfortably, which should be
the most solemn happiness at that time!
Many foreign tourists know the ancient town of Xizhou, mostly because
it is the famous "Xizhou Baba". In fact, Xizhou,
is one of the important birthplaces of Dali Bai people. As early as the period of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, Xizhou became the political, economic and cultural center of Liuzhao, and it was also a military town in Dali in history.
During Nanzhao State in Tang Dynasty, it was the
national capital of Dali Bai people twice.
Xizhou is also the
hometown of Duan Siping, the first emperor of Dali. Bai people, known as Jews in China, are very
good at business. The Yan family, the head of the four families in Xizhou, has a
business all over Yunnan, which plays an important role in the whole Yunnan region. However, Xizhou people attach great importance to their younger brother's education, and they pay equal attention to literature and business. "One scholar is three, and
four people are on the same list" means Xizhou people.
Xizhou, which was called "Historical City" and "Dali City" in ancient times, was called Xizhou in the Ming Dynasty
and has been used ever since. Since ancient times, there have been many talents in Xizhou. The "mother of IVF" in China is
Xizhou. The historical origin of Xizhou to Dali and Bai people
Is it a "Ba Ba" that can choke? !
Xizhou Baba:
Xizhou Baba, known as the oriental pizza, is baked with two layers of carbon
, the upper layer is fierce and the lower layer is slow, which requires
dozens of square meters of open space, and it is basically baked in ashes
and the baked Baba is not extinguished.
? Xizhou crispy Baba is a kind of cheap food with folk beauty. No matter what the sugar and meat are, it is 1 yuan each. It is
difficult to copy and can't be carried. It must be baked now
and eaten within less than 15 minutes
. Otherwise, the taste and taste will be
poor.
? There are many Baba shops in Sifang Street, Xizhou Ancient Town, but
only three of them are the most outstanding: "Squire Yang Ji" next to the natural kitchen,
Baba by Yang Xibao and Baba by Alin. Remember: when you buy Xizhou
Baba, you must bake it now. Secondly, the appearance of the baked Baba
must be broken.
Huang chicken in the natural kitchen:
The natural kitchen is also the location of "Let's Love" filmed by Ruby Lin and Ren Zhong.
the most authentic braised chicken should be Yongping braised chicken,
but the braised chicken in the "natural kitchen" of Xizhou ancient town is also unique, especially the bait pieces mixed and fried together, which are salty and delicious, making people's index fingers move.
In addition, you must try the hot bean jelly of Xizhou, which is sweet and
smooth, but never greasy. Look how devoted our teammates are to eating
.
The most long-standing and inheritable delicacies are often the simplest
things, and making the simplest food delicious
is a unique skill in itself, which often carries the cultural precipitation of a people
or a region, but you have to patiently find and dig for such a beautiful
taste, otherwise you will only
enter Baoshan and return empty. Looking for him in the crowd, suddenly looking back, delicious food is often in the dim light!
Yanjia Courtyard in Xizhou Ancient Town:
The "Qiaojia Courtyard" in Shanxi is magnificent, boastful
and large-scale. After reading it, you will immediately think of the once-famous Shanxi coal boss.
But when you walk into the "Yanjia Courtyard", you will feel that the owner
is extremely low-key. The yard covers a small area, and each
room is small and exquisite, and there is no luxury. Compared with the "Qiao Courtyard", its scale
can only be described in two words: shabby! It is rare for a wealthy businessman who claimed to be tens of billions (with assets amounting to several billion RMB) in the Republic of China, with semicolons all over China, even overseas, to be so self-restrained.
Yan Zizhen, the head of four families in Xizhou, is the posthumous son of Yang
Ji, who lost his father when he was young. His mother made a living by selling cotton yarn to
Yan's family, and he sold water to supplement his family. Later, she married Yan's family with her mother
and changed her name to Zizhen.
Yan Zizhen is hard-working and has a good business mind.
Later, she founded Yongchangxiang
with Peng Yongchang, a businessman from Jiangxi Province. The business grew bigger and bigger, and she took control of the whole Sichuan-Yunnan
area and expanded overseas, becoming the first of the four wealthy businessmen in Xizhou.
? Yan Zizhen is a patriotic national capitalist. Jiang
Zheng Chenggong also wrote an inscription for him, and the chairman of Shanxi Province, Long
Yun, personally wrote an inscription for him.
Personally, it should be Xizhou, not the ancient city of Dali, that truly represents Dali culture. Come to Dali
If you don't stay in Xizhou for two days, you will never be able to read
Dali.
