Enjoy the wind and moon of the water village and realize the charm of Taihu Lake

Wuxi, an ancient cultural city in the south of the Yangtze River with a long history, is a famous land of fish and rice and a rich place. It has been known as Little Shanghai since the 1940s. Taihu Lake is the third largest freshwater lake in China, with an area of 2250 square kilometers. Wuxi is located on the shore of Taihu Lake with beautiful scenery. It is famous for its numerous natural and cultural landscapes and is known as the Pearl of Taihu Lake.

More than a decade ago, I came to Wuxi to participate in the national art quality class competition for primary and secondary schools. Because the meeting had a tight agenda and did not want to leave wonderful learning opportunities, I did not take the time to visit the scenic spot of Taihu Lake, which is full of water villages and customs.

Since he retired last year and moved to Shanghai, it has become a long-cherished wish to visit Wuxi. Moreover, it is not far from Shanghai to Wuxi, the spring weather is surprisingly good after the New year, it is sunny for several weeks in a row, and the Spring Festival tourism season has just passed, which is a great opportunity for travel. On the weekend at the end of February, my son once again drove our family of three generations and six people to start a self-driving tour in Wuxi. When they went out for a spring outing, their grandchildren cheered and couldn't help themselves. Along the way, accompanied by their laughter, we soon arrived at our planned first stop, Yuantouzhu.

Although the scenic spot is not as overcrowded as it was during the year, it is not easy to find a parking space in the parking lot. Like us, there are quite a lot of self-driving trips for families and families. Although we come from different places, but from the happy faces, we can strongly feel a common goal, seize the opportunity, get close to nature, and embrace spring.

In order to have a good time, after we stopped the car, the top priority was to fill our stomach and take off our winter clothes. go to the battle-front without any burden. Yuantouzhu is located on the coast of Taihu Lake in the southwest suburb of Wuxi. Looking south, Taihu Lake has the style of Qingdao seaside, and northward Taihu Lake has the bright scenery of Hangzhou West Lake. The natural scenery of this real mountain and water is supplemented by ingenious artificial embellishment, making it the most ideal tourist attraction for watching Taihu Lake. No wonder the poet Guo Moruo made a wonderful place in Taihu Lake after visiting Taihu Lake. Yuantouzhu attracts writers of all ages and countless Chinese and foreign tourists with its boundless wind and moon, which is not high in mountains and not deep in water, as well as the magical changes in the morning, middle and evening, sunny and rainy scenery, and the 04:00 scenery of spring flowers and autumn months, summer lotus and winter snow. Among them, there are many landscapes, such as Chushan Yinxiu, Luding Yinghui, Zhuzhu Chuntao, Hengyun Villa, Guangfu Temple, Taihu Xiandao, Jiangnan Orchid Garden, Sino-Japanese Cherry Blossom Friendship Forest and so on. The scenery of the head is beautiful and natural.

Climb high and look far, with a panoramic view of the surrounding scenery. Bathed in the cold spring breeze, looking at the lake, I seem to see the beautiful scenery sung through the ages. The sunrise flowers are red and the river is as green as blue in spring. Occasionally a few sailboats sailed by, reminiscent of the scenery of going to Yangzhou in the bright spring.

Taihu Lake Fairy Island, showing the ancient Taoist culture and mythological color, divided into Dongtian Fudi and Tiandu Xianfu and other scenic spots, there are simple and dignified Huixian Bridge, Huixianqiao north of Xiya Mountain, for the Dongtian Fudi tourist area, stands a carefully carved Taihu Xiandao archway, marble relief shadow wall jade survey back to Luan map. There are Huaguo Mountain, Water Curtain Cave and Performing Arts specially for monkeys to perch and perform, and they are also decorated with the birth of divine monkeys, Qi Tian Sengya Flag and Huaguo Mountain stone stele, recreating the scenes in the famous classical novel Journey to the West. The main peak is Xianfu, the capital of heaven, with temples of Wenchang, Guandi and Mazu, and 60 Hua Jia Yuan Chen corridors on both sides. Lingxiao Palace, with seven layers and four corners, has a statue of the Jade Emperor. Dajue Bay, Immortal Cave, is a collection of Chinese Buddhist and Taoist grotto art. Other attractions include offering sacrifices to the rooftop, the Moon Temple, the Yuanyang Pavilion and many other scenic spots.

The three mountains of Xiandao are strange to see alone and win by small. if the green snail is placed in the jade plate, the trees are verdant, the mountain path is deep, and the landscape is open. The poem "Taihu Lake" in the poem stele of Wen Zhengming:

In the vertical and horizontal mirror of the island, the hibiscus is soaked in purple on a wet silver plate.

Who can store 30,000 hectares of chest, I want to visit 70 peaks.

Days far Hongtao turn over the sun and moon, spring cold country hidden fish dragon.

Mid-stream is like smelling chickens and dogs, where can I follow her?

We went to Xiandao on a large cruise ship, and in order to win a favorable position to watch Taihu Lake, we had to squeeze into the crowd and climb to the top of the ladder, when the fence space was already full. the scoundrel had no choice but to squeeze the grandchildren into the railing with all the available space. With the hustle and bustle, I suddenly saw hundreds of lake gulls chirping and flying over the lake above the tourists and around the ship, and some of them even flew over our heads. Tourists have used their mobile phones to record this rare moment.

We walk while playing, walking through the bamboo forest, through the trees, climbing the buildings, down the stone steps, enjoying the flowers and plants, enjoying the beautiful scenery, and enjoying the gifts and rewards of nature. The two grandchildren are like a fish in water, full of curiosity and surprise about everything in front of them. they jump and play, go-and-go, attract birds, fish and insects from time to time, and are infatuated by pavilions and pavilions. When chasing butterflies, squatting down to play with sandy leaves, climbing branches, and taking pictures with them, they often show all kinds of PS or grimace, which makes you laugh. My two-and-a-half-year-old grandson has to be hugged by his grandmother when he goes downstairs for a walk at home, but now he walks like us for five or six hours in a row. According to his son, the pedometer he wore recorded that he had walked nearly 20,000 steps throughout the afternoon, which would be inconceivable if the number of steps of the child was converted. In the face of this situation, I can not help but let this old educator have a trace of reverie and vision, whether our classroom can be open to nature and beautiful things as much as possible. Because every child has inexhaustible potential.

When we came out of the Yuantouzhu scenic spot, it was already dusk, and as we were exhausted, we had to make a non-stop journey to the city to find the Wuxi Junyi Penglai boutique hotel that we booked online two days ago to settle down. Then look for an antique street in Wuxi and take a stroll around the simple and modern Nanchang Street after dinner.

Nanchang Street is an old street in Wuxi, located in the center of Nanchang District, Wuxi City, with a total length of 5. 6 kilometers, of which is located in the Qingming Bridge historical and cultural district of a pedestrian street, from the canal Guyi archway to Qingming Bridge. The fame of Nanchang Street began with the construction of the Post Road in the 10th century AD. From the Song Dynasty to the Ming, Qing and the Republic of China, Nanchang Street has been full of shops and vendors for more than a thousand years, which is a lively and prosperous place in Wuxi. Now it has been transformed into a characteristic commercial street, which not only retains the traces of history, but also adds a modern atmosphere. Green brick rubble, slate road, small attic, the night falls temporarily standing on the Qingming Bridge overlooking, the river on both sides of the lanterns hanging high, reflection in the river, mottled flickering, listening to Yue opera lovers sing a song, do not have a Jiangnan rhyme.

Hungry, we found a restaurant with a unique flavor, with exquisite European decoration, simple and elegant decoration. All kinds of chandeliers, potted plants, ornaments and wall hangings are properly placed and suspended. It makes people feel relaxed and happy. The dishes were ordered, and soon all the delicious dishes were in place. After a hungry meal, everyone still refused to leave. Perhaps out of professional habits, I marveled at the authentic western decoration style of the restaurant, quickly pulled out my mobile phone greedily to capture all kinds of angles, and fixed different pictures.

Out of the restaurant, we are integrated into the surging crowd, the street is as bright as day, a variety of shops stalls small goods, folk crafts, snacks dazzling. All kinds of folk tricks, juggling attracts many tourists and children. You see, grandson Ding Ding squeezed into a sugar carving stand and watched the sugar spoon in the hands of the old artist rise and close, and a galloping sugar horse jumped on the shelf.

That night, we dragged our tired bodies and went to sleep with satisfaction and happiness.

The second day is to visit the CCTV film base "three Kingdoms City" and "Water margin City". Wuxi Film and Television Base has a large group of classical architecture, and the buildings in the three Kingdoms cities are vigorous and vigorous. The main scenic spots are Wu King Palace, Hou Palace, Ganlu Temple, Handing, Caoying Shuizhai, Wuying Shuizhai, Zhou Yu Commander Appointing Platform, etc.; the architecture in Shuihu City is skillful and gorgeous, and the main attractions are the Imperial Palace, Fan Tower, Qingming Shanghe Street, Imperial Street, Purple Stone Street, Shuipo Liangshan and so on. The architecture in Tang City is resplendent, and the main scenic spots are Imperial Garden, Chenxiang Pavilion, Huaqing Pool, Tang Palace and so on. In addition, there are Ming and Qing style architectural landscapes such as the old Beijing siheyuan and the old Shanghai street. These buildings are carefully examined and designed by experts, truly reproducing the architectural style under the historical background at that time. Some buildings, such as Ganlu Temple and Chenxiang Pavilion, have nowhere to be found. Only here can they be appreciated.

Outside the city of the three Kingdoms, the first thing you see is the gatehouse of the three Kingdoms. Flags fluttered above the gates of the scenic spots of the three Kingdoms, and two immortal beasts of the Han Dynasty, Tianlu and warding off evil spirits, stood in the square. The gatehouse was once an empty city plan designed by Zhuge Liang in the Romance of the three Kingdoms and retreated from the filming site of Sima Yi's hundreds of thousands of troops.

On the right side of Shing Gentou Avenue, there are dozens of military accounts, and the peach blossoms in the peach garden are in full bloom, which is the place where Liu Guanzhang's peach garden is in full bloom. On the hillside behind Taoyuan, a group of figures of the three Kingdoms are carved in groups of soldiers and horses, with both form and spirit, and then appear the famous and legendary historical figures. On the left side of the racecourse, the film and television equestrian stunt team that participated in the "Romance of the three Kingdoms" performed the three British battles of Lv Bu for tourists every day. The scene was grand and soul-stirring. More than 40 horses were also well-trained war horses. Tourists can also put on military uniforms and experience the heroic spirit of the heroes of chaos, jumping horses and giving advice to rivers and mountains.

There are dozens of large scenic spots in the city, such as Wu Wang Palace, Ganlu Temple, Caoying Watershed, Seven Star altars, beacon towers, and city towers in the style of the Han Dynasty, as well as more than 20 ancient warships and 5000 square meters of Chibi war arena and arena. We boarded the powerful Zhuge Liang command boat, stood on the bow, and experienced his calm look of holding a goose feather fan in his hand.

Shuihu City is the main location for the film film Outlaws of the Marsh. The city has a vast area and rich scenic spots, which are divided into four scenic spots: prefecture and county, Jingcheng district, Liangshan district and aquatic area. It vividly reproduces the style and folk customs of the ancient city of the Northern Song Dynasty. During the tour, I re-read the stories of Shuihu and influenced the film and television culture. It seemed that I had a feeling of being there. Throughout the panorama, what is coming is the natural simplicity.

In order to enable tourists to appreciate Taihu Lake and get close to Taihu Lake, the film and television base launched an ancient boat trip to Taihu Lake, which allows guests to take a boat in the middle of the lake, enjoy the beauty and charm of Taihu Lake and appreciate the elegance of the water villages in the south of the Yangtze River.

Although the trip is short, it has a long aftertaste. Spring, scenery and leisure are the motivation; weather, geography and human harmony are the conditions; pleasure, happiness and relaxation are the mood. More importantly, let us personally experience and feel the magical charm of nature and the broad and profound history of ancient civilization. This is my general summary of this trip to Wuxi. The ancients were right, read thousands of books, but also travel thousands of miles, will know the unity of action, broad-minded, profound knowledge.
