Those times that belonged to Chengdu were just the right time to encounter the Overseas Chinese Town Cultural Tourism Festival.
One of the most fashionable international electronic music festivals,
A trip to the ancient town with a movie feel,
Enter Hakka culture, enter street art, enter niche music...
Chengdu, come with me to find it, okay?
[Blog Town, every building is intangible cultural heritage]
Everyone knows that Hakka earth buildings are mainly concentrated in Fujian, but few people know that in Longquanyi in Chengdu, there is an ancient town called Luodai Ancient Town, which also has an earth building here.
Legend has it that Luodai got its name after the jade belt of Liu Chan, the late ruler of the Shu Han Dynasty, fell into the Bajiao Well next to the town. There are more than 20,000 Hakka residents in the town, accounting for 90% of the town's population; therefore, it is known as the first Hakka town in western China.
Luodai is called "the world's Luodai, the eternal Hakka" by the world. The positioning of "Hakka under the World" has also been established.
Every time I went to Luodai before, I just walked around the old streets. This time I specially came to Luodai's blog town. The essence of Hakka culture is also concentrated here. Blog Town was completed and opened in 2012 and passed the application for "Intangible Cultural Heritage" in 2013. Each building is a rare intangible cultural heritage.
Blog Town takes the five major migrations of Hakka people as clues, extracts the essence of the world's towns, selects the excellent elements of Chinese architecture, and brings together Fujian, Hui, Jin, Sichuan, and Shanghai style buildings in one town.
Tulou is located in the blog town.
The so-called earthen building is a building made of unroasted soil mixed with sandy clay and clayey sand in a certain proportion, and rammed with sandwich panels to form walls (a few of them are made of adobe bricks), columns, beams, etc. The structure is all made of wood.
And does this earthen building remind you of a scene from a movie?
This is actually the Luodai Hakka Culture Museum. It takes the historical development context of Hakka people's migration to Sichuan as the main line. Through five units: Origin Chapter, Migration Chapter, Entrepreneurship Chapter, Integration Chapter, and Achievements Chapter, it reproduces the Hakka people's pioneering and enterprising spirit and unique cultural charm. In the tulou, you can also enjoy intangible heritage such as New Year pictures, clay sculptures, bamboo weaving, and sachet.
Hakka is a stable and unique branch of the Han nation. Over the course of more than a thousand years of trek, the Hakka people have formed their own unique history, culture and spirit, and have grown into a relatively independent Hakka people with distinctive characteristics that have a continuous relationship with the Han people in the Central Plains. In order to distinguish them from the local indigenous people, they were called "Hakka", and later followed each other and became the self-proclaimed name of the local Han people.
A history of the Hakka people is a pioneering epic intertwined with blood, tears and sweat. Looking at this tulou, I think of the famous symphony poem "The Echoes of the Tulou". The ancestors of the Hakka people originally lived in the Yellow River Basin. During the war and war years, they migrated south from the distant Central Plains, traveled through the Jianghuai and Huaihe areas, and came to the Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi border areas to build their own homes. Then, they set out from here and headed west., south, burst into all the places to be developed in the world, entering deserts and leaving behind prosperity.
Three hundred years ago, when Tianfu was in ruins and was in urgent need of development, the enterprising Hakka people marched into Bashu without hesitation despite the dangers of mountains and rivers. Here, they moved reclamation into industry, lived and multiplied, and made "other places their hometown", showed their talents in rebuilding Sichuan, wrote a new glorious chapter in the history of the Chinese nation's pioneering history, and deeply engraved their footprints on the land of Bashu.
The Bashu Hakka originated from the immigration movement of "Huguang filling Sichuan" in the early Qing Dynasty. At that time, not only Hakka people, but also immigrants from other provinces and regions moved to Sichuan. Compared with Sichuan indigenous people, immigrants are all foreign nationals. In Sichuan, Hakka origin is not equal to Hakka. Only Hakka immigrants and their descendants who migrated from the border areas of Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi since the early Qing Dynasty were specially designated as Sichuan Hakka.
【Luodai cuisine】
We stayed in the tulou for a long time, slowly appreciating and understanding it. It was almost dark when I came out, and it was just dinnertime. At this time, some businesses in the ancient town are already ready to close. But don't worry, the must-eat specialty food street in the ancient town is still brightly lit.
One of Luodai delicacies:Sad jelly
There are two explanations for "sad jelly": one is the jelly made by Guangdong Hakka people who lived in Luodai Town who came from Huguang to Sichuan when they missed their hometown. They were sad because of missing them, so they got their name;
Second, it is named because the spicy rice in the seasoning is so powerful that people who eat it will be tearful.
Luodai Cuisine No. 2:Happy Ice Powder
Every time I eat sad jelly, I must add a bowl of happy ice powder to resolve it. Many homes in the ancient town sell ice powder, which tastes much the same. You can choose to add various ingredients such as glutinous rice, hawthorn, raisins, cantaloupe and rose honey to the ice powder.
Luodai Cuisine No. 3:Oiled goose from the Supply and Marketing Cooperative Restaurant
There are many houses in the ancient town that sell oily hot geese, but this one is especially famous. After paying, you need to use food stamps to pick up the geese, which is different. After tasting it personally, the taste was really great. The goose meat is tender and fragrant with endless aftertaste.
Other delicacies in Luodai:Hakka Jiudou Bowl, Wuhao Cake, Stone Mill Bean Pudding, Luodai Town Snack Li Swan Egg, as well as rose candy, ginger sugar, Zhangfei beef, stuffed tofu, salt stewed chicken, etc.
【Luodai Transportation】
Address: Luodai Town, Longquanyi District, Chengdu City
Self-driving: Luodai is 3.2 kilometers away from Longquan Station of Chengdu-Chongqing Expressway in the south. Chengdu-Luoyang, Longhong and Longxin Roads run through the entire territory. It only takes more than half an hour from Chengdu to Luodai, and you can make a round-trip within the same day.
Long-distance bus: Take No. 219 from Wugui Bridge in Chengdu to Luodai Central Station; take No. 850 from Longquan Bus Terminal to Luodai Central Station.
【Happy Valley, the common gene of "play" and "music"】
As soon as I arrived in Chengdu, I couldn't wait to come to Happy Valley with my best friend, just in time for the end of the EMP International Electronic Music Festival in Chengdu Happy Valley. This carnival ceremony, which spanned 66 days, was staged passionately in Chengdu Happy Valley.
In the past few days, Chengdu has been rainy, but Happy Valley has not stopped being happy because of it. As the EMP International Electronic Music Festival in Chengdu Happy Valley comes to an end, many people are unwilling to miss it even if it rains.
After lining up to enter the park, they naturally wanted to find something interesting. The Happy Valley Park is very large. If you want to play more entertainment projects, it will take almost a day. Whether it's thrilling or relaxing, you can find the right entertainment experience. The valley is composed of theme areas such as Sunshine Harbor, Happy Hour, Caribbean Cyclone, Bashu Mystery, Flying Island, Magic Castle, Leap over the Mediterranean, and Happy Light Year.
Screaming and exciting chapter:The roller coaster may be a must-play event for everyone who likes excitement. There are five major roller coasters here.
Flying over the Mediterranean: Mega roller coaster, which is characterized by circuitous tracks, large-angle lifting and circling, and unsuspecting stimulation and enjoyment.
Yunxiao Flying Dragon: This is a suspended roller coaster that allows people to fly into the sky with their feet. Under the blue sky and white clouds, or today's rainy weather, they sometimes sprint at high speed and sometimes spin in a roundabout manner. It is thrilling and endless aftertaste. Especially when the light rain shines on the face at the speed, it is just a feeling that cannot be expressed in words.
In addition, there are also Desert Rally, Western Regions Flying,. Flying dragons in the snowy region fly across the west, with a series of exciting projects such as crazy magic carpet, colorful bird, double heroes of heaven and earth, Disko, pendulum, energy storm, and ghost horror.
Cute parent-child chapter:It is said that Chengdu Happy Valley is famous for its excitement, but when you stroll through the park, you will find that more and more adults are bringing children to play. Special Envoy is the two themed areas of "Happy Light Year" and "Magic Castle", both of which are very suitable for parent-child play.
My best friend and I walked towards the "Magic Castle" with innocence. From a distance, we could hear a commentator standing next to a Mexican straw hat hat explaining in Mandarin with Chengdu characteristics, making big friends and children laugh.
Here are 20 projects suitable for cute children to play: the KAKA car with a 120-meter childlike track, where adults and children can start racing together; there is also the mini jumping machine "Little Frog Jump", etc., which makes me feel cute.
Unfortunately, the weather is not in favor at the moment, and the rain is getting heavier and heavier.
However, there are fast food restaurants in Happy Hour, Magic Castle, Happy Lightyear and Feixing Island. In the Bashu restaurant bar in the charming area of Bashu, there are also tempting Sichuan delicacies: sad jelly, fat sausage noodles, dandan noodles, bowl chicken...
If you want to eat hamburgers and fried chicken, there is also McDonald's, right next to Crossing the Mediterranean. So we simply sat at McDonald's to shelter from the rain, ordered a cup of coffee and dessert, and waited for the electric syllables in the evening.
At this moment, a young man took the girl's hand and said,"It's okay. We'll come back to play when the sun is out. Tonight we'll go to the electronic syllabic first."
It is said that the Chengdu Happy Valley EMP International Electronic Music Festival has a strong guest lineup and a two-month uninterrupted carnival cycle, occupying a place in this year's Chinese music festival market. Although it was the last two days of the music festival when I arrived in Chengdu, I still couldn't help but come to experience the common genes and characteristics of "play" and "music", and listen to the self-expression of niche rock, folk songs, and HIPHOP music.
After experiencing the excitement of the roller coaster in Happy Valley, while the enthusiasm was still rising, I continued to enjoy the audience at the evening music festival with my friends. This combination is also a different feeling from other music festivals.
The EMP International Electronic Music Festival focuses on electronic music and invites first-class electronic musicians at home and abroad to join. No wonder the venue is still full despite the rain, attracting the integration of a large number of young groups. Like excitement and chasing fashion, the combination of EMP International Electronic Syllables and Chengdu Happy Valley keeps the popularity of tonight high.
Chengdu, a city where even rainy days cannot stop happiness, tonight, he held her hand tightly and shone with a ray of light...

I chose the one designed by He Muyang. He is the creator and producer of "Above the Moon", and his works include Xu Qianya's "South of Colorful Clouds".

【Wide and narrow alleys, nostalgia, sentiment and market】
The name of Kuanzhai Alley seems to be a simple attitude towards life. It is said that after measuring, the staff at that time would randomly label the wider alley as "wide alley", the narrower one was the "narrow alley", and the one with a well was the "well alley". Kuan Alley is a reproduction of life in old Chengdu. Local customs, customs, and folk customs are all in the Kuan Alley.
It is nostalgia.
There are many stylish restaurants, bars, cafes, etc. in the narrow alleys, integrating a Western atmosphere into the courtyard of old Chengdu. The settlement of Yenwen Qingren is a picture of slow life.
It is mood.
The Jing Alley is next to the narrow alley. In this alley, there are folk photo walls and a 500-meter-long brick cultural wall of past dynasties.
It is a reappearance of the market.
Transportation: Metro Line 4 is direct. Very convenient.
【Regarding accommodation and hanging in a tree, who will you meet?】
This city inn is located near Kuanzhai Alley. It is adjacent to landmark buildings such as Tianfu Square, People's Park, and Municipal Museum to the east, and to the west is adjacent to Dufu Cottage, Qintai Road, Qingyang Palace, Wuhou Temple, Jinli Bashu Folk Pedestrian Street and other scenic spots.
Walking into the inn, it carries the fragrance of tea and the faint fragrance of books. I especially like its design. The inn was designed by Mr. Zhu Zhikang, designer of Taikoo Lifang in Chengdu. It has been honored in well-known magazines such as British fashion design magazine Wallpaper and Italian design magazine Domus. It has also won many awards such as the "German IF Design Award".
Hang your mood on the branches in the lobby,
Maybe, who and who will meet again.
Tips:
1. The inn has a separate laundry room, which can wash a full bucket of clothes for 50 yuan.
