There is probably no season more worth traveling than the present. The autumn is crisp, neither cold nor hot, and the weather is too good. Every cloud on the horizon seems to be waving to you, as if to say: Come on, the beautiful scenery is waiting for you.

I also went for a walk around. It was Jiande, located in the upper reaches of the Qiantang River. There is an ancient song about Jiande in Meng Haoran's famous poem "Staying in Jiande River": The wild sky is vast and the trees are low, and the river is clear and the moon is close to you. Here is the beautiful intersection of the "Three Rivers" of Xin 'an River, Fuchun River and Lanjiang River, the 1700-year-old Yanzhou Ancient Mansion, and the "Sandu Fishing Village" with mountains and rivers, which is different from other places. The fruit color is green, sweet and refreshing, and the Qiliangels known as the "Little Three Gorges". Yes, the famous famous painting "Fuchun Mountain Residence" is based on the scenery of Qiliangfan, depicting the beautiful scenery of early autumn on both sides of the Fuchun River. It vividly expresses the vast green mountains and clear waters, and is known as one of China's top ten famous paintings handed down from generation to generation.

01 Sailing in Seven Miles

The green mountains and canyons on both sides of the Qiliyangfan Scenic Area are picturesque, dotted with many cultural relics. It is characterized by "green mountains, clear water, leisurely history and leisurely scenery". It is the essence of the scenery of the Fuchun River. It is also known as China's three famous river canyon-type scenic spots together with the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River and Guilin Li River.

Take a cruise ship at Yaowu Wharf to visit the Qili Yangfan Scenic Area. The cruise ship in the scenic area looks like a private yacht. The first floor is a private cabin and the second floor is an open-air deck. When you go there, it was a sunny day and white clouds are blooming. Standing on the deck, you can admire the poetic mountains on both sides of the strait.

It is pleasing to the eye, relaxed and happy, and truly "people are swimming in paintings on the blue waves."

The first scenic spot to land was Zixu's Wild Crossing. As its name suggests, it is related to Wu Zixu, the famous general of Chu. It is said that in order to escape the pursuit of King Ping of Chu, Wu Zixu passed through here. A boatman Gong Gong not only helped Wu Zixu cross the river, but also cut his neck to express his intention not to reveal Wu Zixu's traces to the pursuers. To commemorate this historical story, posterity named this place "Zixu Yedu" and carved it on the stone wall of the ferry for future generations to worship.

Nowadays, Zixu Yedu can be called half a children's playground. It has climbing nets, slides and other facilities for children to play. It is a happy garden for children.

As soon as Yuan Bao and his children landed, they went straight to the subject, climbing up and down, happily at a loss.

In addition to Japanese-style lanterns and Chinese-style fish ornaments, which can be used as excellent concave background walls, the single mountain swing and double soft cable swing located on the shore are popular Internet celebrity projects for Zixu's wild outing.

It is exciting enough to slowly rise to a high place and swing to the river. It reduces the horror of a cliff swing, and adds more leisure to floating on the river.

The second attraction to ashore is Hulufei Waterfall, where you can take a retro train to the restaurant in the scenic area.

The small train with beautiful and retro shapes is simply the favorite of children of Yuan Bao's age. When they see the small train, they run away, and together with the little boy they encounter, the two of them are like excited birds chirping.

In addition to retro trains, the scenic area also has an Internet celebrity Bird's Nest. A transparent swing can check in, and a landscape can be seen with a casual shot, as if embracing the whole world.

A real warrior, dare to challenge the shouting fountain and see how powerful your voice is.

The environment in the scenic area is very good, with dense forests. Walking on the dotted fallen leaves is like stepping into the autumn scenery.

The roadside stream is gurgling, and you can experience the ecological rafting of Hulu Gorge in summer.

Tourists who come here must check in are also the gourd waterfalls, which can be called the symbol of the scenic spot. The water outlet of the waterfalls forms a gourd waterfalls with small upper parts and large lower parts.

The waterfall gushed out like white beads hanging in the sky, forming a 200-meter-long valley stream. It naturally formed two large holes connected from the top to the bottom, and connected from the top to the bottom. It looked like a huge gourd and was spectacular.

Such a majestic waterfall in the south of the Yangtze River is very rare, and tourists have taken photos here.

When you go back to the dock, you can take a classic car. The green body is retro and eye-catching, and it is very handsome.

Tips: There are restaurants in the Hulufei Waterfall Scenic Area. Tourists can eat in the Hulufei Waterfall Scenic Area. It takes about 4 hours for a cruise ship + tour of the scenic area.

02 Yanzhou Ancient Prefecture

From Qiliyangfan Scenic Area, we went to Yanzhou Ancient Prefecture. Since the county was established during the Three Kingdoms period, it has a history of more than 1700 years. It has a long history as the seat of Yanzhou, Yanzhou Prefecture and Jiande County. In the era when water transportation was the main transportation, Yanzhou, which is now Meicheng, monopolized the scenery. There is even a saying saying: "There are two and a half plum blossoms in the world, one in Beijing, one in Nanjing, and the other half is in Yanzhou." The plum blossoms mentioned here are not plants, but plum-shaped battlements. In ancient times, at least in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, only the battlements of the city wall were qualified to be made into plum blossom shapes. As a state capital, the battlements were built into plum blossom shapes, which shows the status of Yanzhou Ancient Mansion.

The famous classical novels "Water Margin","The History of the Scholars","Official Records","Jin Ping Mei", etc. have all described the humanistic landscape of Meicheng. Today, the ancient interpretation is still there, and you can still see the prosperity of the thousand-year-old waterway and heavy port.

To go to Yanzhou Ancient Mansion, you must climb the city wall. The city wall was originally built by Zhou Ge, the governor of the Song Dynasty, and was last rebuilt in the early Ming Dynasty by Zhu Yuanzhang's brother-in-law Li Wenzhong.

Today, the city wall is towering, there is a majestic and tall pavilion above the gate, and a plaque with the word "Yanzhou" hangs in the center.

Standing on the city wall, you can overlook the beautiful mountains and rivers at the confluence of the Three Rivers, and the Nanfeng Tower in the distance, and feel the ancient charm and tranquility here.

The father and son had a good time on the city wall.

In addition, Jiande also has a famous greenway, starting from Gantan Town in the east and ending at Meicheng Yandongguan in the west. It has a total length of 18 kilometers. It is built along the river and is surrounded by mountains and rivers. The forest coverage rate is close to 90%. It is a veritable "greenway", there are three stations along the way. Tourists can rent bicycles and battery cars, replenish supplies or conduct tourism consultations, etc.

03 Sandou Fishing Village

"Looking at the ancient pagoda, touring the three rivers, and sailing seven miles to get the fishermen's homes drunk." Next, we went to Sandu Fishing Village, located at the intersection of the "Three Rivers", facing the ancient town of Meicheng across the river, like a paradise left behind from time, quietly Standing on the river.

For a long time, Sandu Fishing Village has been home to a special group of people-the "Nine Families".

The so-called "nine surnames" refer to the fishermen who wander on the Xin 'an River, Fuchun River and Lanjiang River all year round to make a living by fishing. They are the nine surnames of "Chen, Qian, Lin, Yuan, Sun, Ye, Xu, Li and He". It is said that the fishermen surnamed Jiu were originally Chen Youliang's generals. They came down along the river along the Yanzi River due to the defeat of Poyang Lake. Later, they were banished to live on the water by Zhu Yuanzhang. Since they were defeated, the local government strictly guarded them and were not allowed to land and live, participate in the imperial examinations, wear long robes and shoes, let alone intermarry with people on the shore, forming a relatively closed aquatic tribe for hundreds of years. From the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty and even the Republic of China, the fishermen here had a humble status and endured humiliation. It was not until after liberation, in 1969, when a dam was built on the Fuchun River, that the fishermen could land and settle down, study...

Today's Sandu Fishing Village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with forest of fruit trees, and the residents of green tiles are hidden among the green mountains and green groves. It is very quiet.

The traditional style of the fishing village remains unchanged, but the originally silent farmyard has become vibrant. The walls are painted with the four seasons of the fishing village. The koi carp rolling in the water have transformed into unique decorations, lighting up the entire fishing village.

04 Sandu tangerine

You must remember that a good year is the most orange-yellow and orange-green.

While continuing to drive along the Fuchun River and exploring the lakes and mountains, we also took Yuanbao to Sandu Town, Jiande. The town is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful and charming natural scenery, making it an ideal place for leisure, vacation and sightseeing. Sanjiangkou's unique climate and fertile soil are very suitable for orange growth, so there are orange forests all over the mountains and plains.

Green leaves are verdant, orange trees bend over with fruitful fruits, and round tangerines hang all over the branches, making people salivate.

Yuan Bao is very interested in picking oranges. He heard that he could pick oranges with his own hands, so he had long been eager to try and couldn't wait. When he was really in the tangerine forest of Sandu Town, Yuan Bao held a plastic basket in one hand and scissors in the other, transforming himself into a little picker."Kacha, it's a pleasure to pick oranges. Thanks to the gold ingot, we picked hundreds of oranges, large and small. Anyway, this year, we have eaten enough oranges. By the way, you can also experience strawberry picking in winter and early spring. Children also like it very much.

Tips: Pick 10 yuan per person when you enter the garden, and pick oranges 3 yuan per catty. Don't control the appearance of the oranges. Only those with hemp skin taste delicious.

The beautiful trip to Jiande in early autumn came to an end. The blue sky, white clouds, and dense forests and waterfalls brought home the tranquility of autumn days. It also brought home the aroma of oranges and the flavor of early autumn.
