preface

Some people say that Chengdu is a city built for mahjong, and people play mahjong almost 24 hours a day. Others say that Chengdu is a city built for tea, and various teahouses have a booming business. In fact, Chengdu is still a city born for delicious food. The restaurants and restaurants all over the streets are always crowded.

As an Internet celebrity city, Chengdu has too many beautiful scenery that makes people linger, but if you don't come to Chengdu to taste the delicious food, you must leave regrets. In our journey from Chengdu-Kangding, food was one of the protagonists.

Be a "Chengdu eater"

Our trip to Chengdu had no obvious travel routes and was purely for a relaxing vacation.

Because of the delicious food, I chose to stay near Zhimin Road for the past two days. There are three restaurants with very good tastes and unique decoration styles.

When I came to Chengdu last year, I tasted the delicious food produced by Chengdu diners. This time, because I was on the way, I chose Zhimin Road Store, which is next to the roadside and fishers.

It is worthy of being an Internet celebrity food brand in Chengdu, and its business is as hot as ever.

This Chengdu restaurant is open on the second floor, but there is a reception desk on the first floor.

The design of the restaurant is simple but elegant, and its style is traditional Chengdu flavor. Dining here has a unique atmosphere.

There are many diners in the restaurant, and the staff kindly help them put the two tables together. I choose a table against the wall and enjoy a freehand dinner under moderate light and dark lighting.

I tasted abalone noodles last time and left a good impression. This time, I didn't order too many dishes. I only ordered old Chengdu sugar and oil fruits, special grilled fish slices (home-cooked pickled pepper flavor), naked tuos and heartless babies (room temperature). These dishes are all very good and are a perfect match with herbal tea. Of course, if you like to drink, some beer is also good.

The grilled fish slices are tender and smooth. In addition to being soft on the entrance, they also maintain the original sweetness of fresh fish. Pickled peppers play a role in enhancing the flavor and are a little spicy, but just right and will not overshadow the guests.

The Heartless Girl's display was very special. After the camera was finished, her mobile phone couldn't help but click a few pictures. This dish, like grilled fish slices, is a little spicy, but it is very refreshing. It is particularly interesting to eat in Chengdu.

Naked Tuotuo shrimp is one of my favorite dishes. The oil for soaking the shrimp is added by the staff on site. This dish is not spicy, but the oil is very fragrant. The shrimp is refreshing and sweet after being cooked, and the aroma lasts in the throat for a long time.

Eat a mala tang on the roadside

Malatang on the roadside has a very down-to-earth name, reminding people of the scene of tasting snacks on the roadside when they were a child.

Prior to this, a friend in Chengdu told me that Zhimin Road Store needed to queue for a long time to enter the restaurant. After a personal test on site, it was indeed the case.

The decoration of Malatang on the roadside is simple, with a strong street style of the 1970s and 1970s. The sentence "Let some people get rich first" is particularly contemporary.

There is a small table and a few small stools, chatting and smiling while enjoying the mala hot buffet. The years are peaceful.

The side dish area is self-service and you can pick it up as needed. There are many varieties of vegetables and meat in the entire side dish area.

I ordered several signature dishes, namely crispy meat, furious rabbit waist and hairy brain flower. Malatang wants a classic pot, which is slightly spicy and the bottom of the pot is relatively refreshing. It is not the type with heavy oil and heavy taste. It can better highlight the fresh taste of the ingredients.

The store is very considerate and matches it with the original soup plate, which mainly contains garlic and pepper. You can also mix soy sauce and vinegar according to your preferences.

It is recommended to cook a large skewer of meat together to make it more enjoyable.

Angry rabbit waist is one of the famous dishes in the store. Rabbit waist and pepper are served together in advance, making it delicious and delicious in the mouth.

Mao brain flowers: slightly spicy, coriander, peppers and other seasonings blend with brain flowers. With a bite, the fragrance fills the throat and lasts for a long time.

Falling in love with fish husband fish zai

The decoration of Yufu Yuzai Cobblestone Fish Hot Pot Zhimin Road Store is more inclined to the style of Jianghu cuisine in Sichuan and Chongqing. The specialty here is fish hot pot, which is very popular. We also decided to eat in this store after reading the good reviews online.

Because I lived in the countryside when I was a child, the atmosphere in the store was very familiar and friendly. Maybe young people today may not know what coir raincoats are. These objects and bamboo hats were the main tools in rural areas in the past, and fishermen used them more widely. Walking into the fisherman fish is like walking into a fisherman's family.

It happened to be meal time and the restaurant was full of diners, but although it was lively, they would not interfere with each other. This atmosphere was very good.

There are several aquariums in the store, where you can see fresh fish swimming around. The fish customers eat are all live fish taken out of the aquariums.

The dining session of the fisherman fish is very ceremonial. The staff will stew a pot first, put a few hot stones in it, then pour in the fish pieces, put a tall hat on the mouth of the pot, and finally pour in the secret pot. The bottom of the pot, if you are not used to eating the bottom of the red soup, you can choose the bottom of the clear soup. The most distinctive thing is that the staff will shout "The stone comes, good luck" when serving the pot, which means that the diners have a good luck and bring people a good mood.

What we want is the bottom of red soup, which is very spicy and sour.

The hot fish is tender and fresh.

The secret tomato is a little sour and sweet, and has an excellent taste. The little girl next door said that it tasted like her first love.

Having eaten small tomatoes so many times, I feel that this family can rank among the top three.

It was a wise move to order sour plum soup. The sour plum soup in the store is packaged on-site and made before ordering. The sour and sweet sour plum soup just solves the spicy and greasy taste of the fish hot pot, which is a perfect match.

Fishing gathering originating in Thailand

The Jiyu Thai hot pot I tasted was in Tai Koo Li, so it was convenient to come and eat after shopping. The store is right on the side of the road and is very easy to find.

It is said that Jiyu originated in Thailand, and only returned to China to open a chain store after its successful operation.

There is a leisure waiting area at the entrance of the fishing market. Customers waiting for the waiting table can take their own drinks and snacks such as popcorn to enjoy, and there is no limit.

The waiting area is very spacious and can accommodate dozens of people. This design makes people feel considerate and sincerely adds to the good impression.

The store adopts a simple and atmospheric design style, with green plants in the main color of beige white, giving people the feeling of being in a tropical garden.

In addition to the lobby and stairs, the patio design is also very touching. In the store, the green everywhere gives people a feeling of vitality. Eating in this casual space allows you to truly relax and enjoy the happiness brought by delicious food attentively.

What we asked for was a Thai coconut citronella pot, and the staff took the initiative to pour coconut water for us and reminded us that we could call them to come and help at any time.

The colorful bubbles of grapefruit from Jiyu are great, giving people a strong tropical flavor and a beautiful appearance.

I ordered a set meal for two with seafood platters, vegetable platters and other ingredients.

There are many categories of seafood, including oysters, scallops, etc., and vegetables include corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, mushroom, okra, etc. The ingredients here are full and fresh.

The staff took the initiative to help us with the dishes. The most touching thing was the shrimp peeling process. In a short time, they skillfully helped us peel the shrimp and served them to us. I have eaten in many places, but there are not many restaurants with similar services.

The fresh ingredients retain the umami and sweetness of the ingredients after being cooked in the pot. These two flavors are combined with the fragrance of coconut juice. The aroma is overflowing before it is out of the pot, and the lips and teeth remain fragrant after entering the mouth.

There are several seasonings in the store: signature lemon mint, classic traditional Thai style, secret Sichuan-scented millet spicy, Sichuan-scented dry dishes, spicy seafood, and strong flavor peanut butter. Each of them tastes great. In order to try, I placed an order.

Exchanging dips, the feeling expands the breadth of taste enjoyment.

The dish costs only 6 yuan per dish. If there are many people, I recommend trying every dish.

Netizens especially recommended the signature shrimp curry. This dish combines the flavors of curry and shrimp and has a unique taste. I couldn't help but ask for another plate.

Jiyu's tropical yellow, lava fried pearl eggs and fried chicken chops are also very good.

You must also try Jiyu's desserts. There are many varieties and they feel better than those made in outside dessert shops.

Come on, let's get together

Before returning to Guangzhou, I chose Deji Stewed Kebabs (Oak Forest Store) for dinner. Because I had a flight after 8 p.m., it arrived around 5 o'clock, and the store had just entered afternoon business hours.

Because they arrived early, there were relatively few customers, and it was said that there were often crowds after six o'clock.

The decoration of the store adopts a simple open-plan design, and the lobby is spacious and bright. There are small tables suitable for a single person or two people to chat privately, and long tables suitable for multiple people to have dinner together.

I especially like to soak chicken feet in Douyin. It tastes crispy and is said to be an Internet celebrity snack.

The impression that kebabs gave me in the past was that oil smoke was flying all over the sky, and the taste could be smelled hundreds of meters away, which caused a bit of pollution to the environment. Deji uses environmentally friendly braising and roasting, which makes me very impressed.

The staff put a layer of tin foil on the baking box, which can be roasted while eating. It feels perfect when paired with sour plum soup and draft beer!

I ordered roasted colored peppers, March melons, corn segments, pork skewers, mutton kebabs, mutton kebabs, mutton ribs, finger-sucking steaks, Dili cool meat, Dili roasted steamed buns, black pepper beef belly strips and black pepper calf steak. You can taste that the kebabs are all first-class meat, crisp, and fragrant.

This restaurant is very suitable for late nights. For dinner, you can eat slowly and drink slowly. Make friends and chat while chatting. It feels the most enjoyable.

The delicious dipping plates are divided into three compartments. The staff in the store told me that different saucers are used to dip different grilled meats. For example, the one for dipping the vegetables is the small compartment in the middle, and the two sides are dipped into kebabs.

Watching the spectacle of pandas climbing buildings on Chunxi Road

Every major city has Internet celebrity check-in spots. Chengdu has a lot of Internet celebrity spots. In addition to Kuanzhai Alley, People's Park, Jinli, and Chunxi Road, in the past, more locals and people living in Chengdu went to hang out. Now it has become a popular check-in spot for tourists because there is a giant panda here. It climbs buildings every day, and its position and posture remain unchanged.

Chunxi Road is actually not the name of a single road, but the general name of the streets south of Chengdu's Presidential Palace, west of Hongxing Road, north of East Street, Zhongxin Street, Nanxin Street and other streets. This is the most lively and prosperous place in Chengdu, with a large number of mid-to-high-end brands selling things including clothing, accessories, etc. There are also many well-known food chains, including some financial centers and office buildings.

Chunxi Road is known as the most distinctive commercial street in China because of its strong sense of design and the strong tone of the Internet.

Chunxi Road was completed in 1924 and has a history of nearly 100 years. It is what people call a century-old golden street.

Chunxi Road has always been very lively, but without the giant pandas climbing the stairs, it would not have become a world-famous street.

Panda Climbing Building is located on the outer wall of the International Financial Center on Hongxing Road Pedestrian Street in Chunxi Road Commercial District. Walking into the Chunxi Road business district, you can see the back of the panda climbing the stairs from afar. It looks cute and cute, making people feel childish. The appearance of this giant panda has filled the entire Chunxi Road business district with cartoon and vitality.

When looking at the pandas climbing stairs from different angles, their postures are different. If you want to see the front of the pandas, you must go to the Sky Garden of the International Financial Center. It has vast green spaces and resting areas. In addition to the giant pandas climbing stairs, there are many unique creations. sculpture.

The giant panda climbing the building is about 15 meters tall and weighs 13 tons. It is composed of nearly 4000 triangular members, which looks very realistic. This art work is currently the largest stainless steel panda installation in China.

Seeing the giant cute panda feels like watching an animated cartoon. It is no longer a Japanese patent to carry out cartoons to the end. Chunxi Road in Chengdu also uses its own creativity to fascinate tourists. Almost every tourist who comes to Chengdu has to check in here.

Kangding is a beautiful city

There are many cities in China, but have you ever heard of and visited a city that is famous around the world for a song?

This city is Kangding, the capital of Ganzi Prefecture in Sichuan Province. The song "Love Song of Kangding" was sung here, and this song was also broadcast into space with the "Voyager 2" spacecraft.

Kangding's average altitude is less than 2600 meters, which is relatively close to Lijiang, Yunnan. Since ancient times, it has been the throat of the western plateau region and the important town of the tea-horse ancient road. It is the economic, cultural center and transportation hub of the Kangba region. Kangding was once the capital of Xikang Province.

Kangding was the territory of the Qiang people in ancient times. The Qiang people were once nomadic people in the north and migrated all the way to what is now western Sichuan. Wang Zhihuan's "Liangzhou Ci":"Why should the Qiang flute blame the willow? The spring breeze never crosses the Yumen Pass" refers to the Qiang musical instrument.

Kangding is now a multi-ethnic city, with Tibetan compatriots having the largest population. The other ethnic groups are Han, Qiang, Hui, Yi, etc.

Kangding is a beautiful mountain city with a rising sun atmosphere. The city is surrounded by mountains. Even in midsummer, it is an autumn climate. You can wear short sleeves or long sleeves when going out. The comfortable climate makes us reluctant to leave, thinking that we will soon return to Lingnan, which is above 30 degrees Celsius, and I feel a little bit of a gap in my heart.

Kangding City is now busy with traffic, but the pace of life is much slower than that of first-tier and second-tier cities. Walking on the road, you can clearly feel the "slowness" of the local people. Their steps are light and calm, and their faces are written with "calm and peaceful".

The opening of highways has greatly shortened the total traffic time between Kangding City and Chengdu and other cities. Today, it only takes more than three hours to drive from Chengdu, which is hundreds of meters above sea level, to Kangding City. Different temperature differences give people a feeling of traveling through.

I especially like Kangding. It is not ostentatious or impetuous, as if it is far away from the secular world and in the secular world.

Walking in the streets and alleys of Kangding City, the lyrics and tunes of "Kangding Love Song" always appear in my mind, and I will sing it out unconsciously.

Many hotels and landmark buildings in the small city are named after Kangding Love Song, Liucheng or Gesang Hua, which makes people feel even more intimate.

Early in the morning after the rain and the sun cleared, we wandered around the city casually and accidentally turned to Liucheng. A group of locals and people who looked like tourists were turning prayer tubes. This simple ceremony represents people's feelings for relatives and friends and a better life. yearning.

Kangding is not like a big city with tall buildings, but the quiet atmosphere is very comfortable to walk around. When walking through the streets, you can often see the mountains not far away surrounded by clouds and mist. The so-called "fairyland on earth" is so close to you.

Because the climate on the plateau is changeable, you can see different scenery in one day in Kangding City.

There are many good delicacies in this town. Yak meat hot pot and Matsutake chicken soup hot pot are very representative. My favorite is Matsutake chicken soup hot pot. Before putting green vegetables and other meat into the pot, drink a few bowls of chicken soup first. The aroma fills your throat and lasts for a long time. This feeling is wonderful.

Different small bridges span the small river, and different statues stand in the square in the center of the city. These statues represent Kangding's humanistic history and life culture.

There are not many major attractions in Kangding City, but it is worth staying for a few days. Its charm lies in the details of life. Due to its reputation at home and abroad, many foreigners have made a special trip to see the style of this mysterious city.

Mugecuo, this place becomes a paradise on earth

Gongga is known as the king of Shushan Mountain, and the Gongga Mountains are regarded as one of the most beautiful tourist belts in Sichuan. Mugecuo, located in the middle of the mountains, is 3780 meters above sea level. Local people habitually call this lake "Haizi". Mugecuo Lake is covered with stones, wild flowers and alpine vegetation. It is like a paradise in a movie blockbuster against the blue sky and white clouds. It makes people stop and admire it for a long time without wanting to leave.

Because of its distinctive characteristics, Mugecuo has also become the name of the scenic spot in a broad sense. This scenic spot is fully called Kangding Love Song (Mugecuo) Scenic Area. It is located in Kangding City, Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan Province, about 17 kilometers away from the urban area of Kangding. It takes about half an hour to drive from the entrance of the scenic spot to the lake area at an altitude of 3780 meters.

Mugecuo, also known as Yanren Sea and Dahaizi, is the core attraction of the scenic area and the largest alpine lake in northwest Sichuan. The maximum visibility is close to ten meters. The water source mainly comes from the melting snow of the Nuwa Snow Mountain. Mugeco is surrounded by forest meadows, majestic mountains and dozens of red, white, and black seas. Due to the high altitude and lake valley area, the weather changes countless times. Suddenly sunny, cloudy, and fog have become the norm. In the early morning, there is a better chance to enjoy the grand occasion of the mist locking the "sea". The whole picture is like a fairyland.

When the sun shines on the lake, blue sky and white clouds become the best embellishments. Looking at the stones of different sizes nearby and looking at the endless peaks in the distance, I suddenly feel the heroism of nature and the smallness of people, which naturally gives rise to awe.

Standing by the lake and listening to different versions of "Kangding Love Song", I especially want to sing loudly. The lyrical tone sings endless romantic feelings in the world and expresses the beautiful longing for love of young men and women.

There are lush forests around Mugeco. For me personally, there is no lack of oxygen, but I feel relaxed and happy.

It was already summer at this time, but the climate on the mountain was in both spring and autumn. Even under the sun, I didn't dare to stay in short sleeves for too long. After staying here for a long time, I feel a little uncomfortable returning to a big city above 30 degrees Celsius.

Wildflowers are growing vigorously by the lake. Flowers of different colors and greenery bring freshness and add some tenderness to the majestic mountains. This is a favorite photo resort for tourists. Whether it is landscape films or portrait photos, you can take an atmospheric but beautiful artistic conception. Walking through the grass is like Alice in Wonderland.

During the lake tour, I heard relevant legends about Mugeco, which added interest to the journey.

In the distant past, there was a young man named Tashi and a young woman named Zhuoma on the Tagong Grassland. The man was handsome and brave, and the woman was beautiful and kind. The two loved each other in the process of working. The leader of the tribe also took a fancy to Zhuoma. Under the whistleblower of a good friend, Tashi took Zhuoma frantically to the mountains and mountains and came to the coast of today's Mugecuo. He took root because he liked the environment here. Later, the two men's whereabouts were discovered by hunters. He mistakenly thought that Tashi and Zhuoma were savages, and Mugecuo's nickname Wild Man Sea spread from this.

Nowadays, Mugecuo is not only a paradise in paintings, but also a popular check-in resort for Kangding Love Song Scenic Area. Many tourists come thousands of miles to make vows, and many tourists also leave good wishes here.

You can see some stone piles shaped like building blocks by the lake. They vary in size. According to local people, these stone piles represent people's good wishes and are a way to pray for blessings. It seems that it is true that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Only by walking around can we broaden our horizons and broaden our horizons.

The charming seven-colored sea

The altitude of Kangding Love Song Scenic Area is between 2,600 and 3,780 meters. Different altitudes have different landscapes. Each scenic spot keeps us lingering for a long time. One of the scenic spots is called the Seven Color Sea. This scenic spot has lush vegetation and extremely high negative ion content. Feel relaxed and happy in it.

The Seven-Color Sea is a alpine lake located in the middle section of Kangding Love Song Scenic Area. The reason why it is called the Seven-Color Sea is because it presents rich and layered colors under different seasons and light. Summer is green of varying shades. Autumn is dreamlike colors such as red, yellow, orange and purple, and winter is a fairy tale world covered with ice and snow.

The seven-colored sea and water are the calmest in the morning and evening, reflecting the green mountains, white clouds and blue skies, like a dream paradise depicted by God with his imagination. Walking along the lake shore gives the feeling of a person swimming in a painting.

Standing on the shore and admiring the rolling mountains and clouds in the distance, I instantly forgot to say anything.

The beauty of the seven-colored sea cannot be expressed in simple words, and cameras and mobile phones can only record one-tenth of its beauty.

It would be a wonderful thing if all the beauty in the world were like the Seven-Colored Sea and fell into people's hands without being polished.

The seven-colored sea is inlaid between the Chongshan Mountains in a crescent shape. The water area is about 20 hectares and the deepest point is more than ten meters. The biggest feature of this lake is that it combines lake water and hot spring water.

The seven-colored sea and water are clear, and the colorful picture presented by reflecting the trees on the shore and blue sky and white clouds is no less than that of Jiuzhaigou.

It is said that water is the most beautiful scenery in the world, but without the lush vegetation around it, Qicehai would be an extremely ordinary woman.

I marvel at the extraordinary craftsmanship of nature that lifted the plateau and created such a rich variety of plants.

This world with an altitude of more than 3,000 meters is so beautiful that it is intoxicating and beautiful.

Water and wood depend on each other and the mountains are in the sky, and you forget your way back and don't feel the sun is getting dark.

Strange Hongshi Beach

Kangding Love Song Scenic Area has different elevations, and different elevations produce different deportments. In the middle and end of Dujuan Canyon, there is a red stone beach. The stones inside are all red, which is amazing!

These stones are of different sizes and shapes. They are scattered in a disorderly and orderly manner along the streams of the Dujuan Canyon. The surrounding areas are lush vegetation. Weeds and wild flowers grow tenaciously upward from the cracks in the stones. Different colors set off each other and form a beautiful watercolor painting feels like God accidentally knocked over a color ink cartridge and dyed it.

Why are the stones in Hongshitan red? Is it due to natural weathering? Or is it caused by the chemicals contained in the stone itself?

None of the above answers are.

It turns out that there is a kind of microorganism parasitic on the stones in Hongshitan. It is this filamentous algae microorganism that causes the stones to appear red.

Under normal circumstances, the stones in Hongshitan are dark red, but once the fog is heavy or washed away by rain, the stones will turn bright red. From a distance, they will look like a red sea. The scene is like a movie blockbuster. Shocking.

The microorganisms attached to red rocks have very high requirements on the environment, climate and altitude. They can only grow at an altitude of more than 3000 meters and the environment is not polluted.

Before entering Hongshitan, I saw a sign erected on the periphery, which read the words "Stones have life, please have mercy on your feet". This reminds me of the power of vigorous growth of life. Even if it is parasitic on stones, it will not lose the instinct to survive. This spirit is touching to a certain extent.

Of course, this touching is also because the "parasitic organisms" on the stone are harmless to humans and nature. If they are harmful substances, it is a different matter.

Hongshitan is a suitable place for taking photos. With the red stones as a backdrop, as long as the lens sense is good, you can always take atmospheric or beautiful portrait photos.
