preface

In my impression, Ningbo will always be a bowl of warm glutinous rice balls in the Old Town God Temple. When I was a child, my father often took me to Ningbo, so when I grew up, with this growing memory, I always had a special kindness to this city. Transportation is now more convenient. Starting from Hangzhou, it takes an hour to reach Ningbo by high-speed train and two hours to drive by car. It is normal to go to Ningbo to enjoy a delicious food trip. Ningbo is very popular and has seafood. You can draw up different tourist routes at random every time.

shipu fishing port

After arriving in Shipu for dinner at noon, we first go to Shipu Fishing Port, also called Litang. It is a crescent-shaped closed harbor that runs northeast and southwest. In the fishing port, tens of thousands of fishing boats can be parked and tens of thousands of tons of sea ferries can be flown. The harbor is calm and calm. It is a famous haven on the southeast coast. It is also a good haven for fishing ports and commercial ports. It is one of the four major fishing ports in the country. The customs of the harbor have irresistible charm for those of us who grew up in reinforced concrete.

Shipu Ancient City

Shipu Ancient City next to the fishing port, I always visit it every time I come, giving it the original scenery of the old street. The ancient city of Shipu is built along the mountains and is surrounded by the mountains and the sea. It is known as "the city is on the port, and the mountains are in the city." This ancient city is different from the usual ancient towns in Jiangnan in that it is a mountain city. At one end of the ancient city is the sea and the other end is a mountain. There are winding roads unique to the mountain city and fishing port.

The ancient city of Shipu was built in the Ming Dynasty and has a history of more than 600 years. It is the key to the coastal defense of Zhejiang and the ocean. The city walls are built with the ups and downs of the mountains, and the city gates are shaped. Gaokong Port is the "important town of coastal defense". The main features of the ancient city of Shipu. There are more than 600 years of ancient city walls here; there are "cliff stone carvings" left by anti-Japanese soldiers and soldiers, and on the city walls surrounding the tower there is also a statue of Qi Jiguang, a famous anti-Japanese general!

It used to be a prosperous commercial street with more than 100 shops along the street. Several unique fire sealing walls were built for fire prevention and theft. There are many old houses on the back street. They have hundreds of years of history and have experienced ups and downs.

When visiting the ancient city, you can check in with tickets along the way to 14 scenic spots such as Hongzhang Silk Village, Yuansheng Qianzhuang, and Caixing Yanzhuang. These old houses have profound stories and are now given new connotations.

You can also try the snacks in the ancient city of Shipu. The local characteristics of shrimp skin and snow jelly are recommended. The entrance of the scenic area will cost 1-2 yuan. You can go straight up. After passing the tower, the price of the shops inside will be cheaper.

In fact, it is a good choice to buy some conch flower pots, cattail fans, and dried fish when driving by yourself. The ancient city has not a strong commercial flavor and the price is not expensive.

?? Recommended tour duration: 1.5-2 hours

Xiangshan film and television City

Xiangshan Film and Television City, where "The Bang of Nirvana","The Legend of Miyue" and "Three Lives of Ten Miles Peach Blossom" were filmed, is a place I have always wanted to come to. I especially like to visit film and television cities around the country, because film and television cities are good places to set up. Ah, after playing around in one go, the photos you can travel through ancient and modern times and travel around the world. It's worth it!

When visiting, remember to first understand the schedule of each live-action performance, because I think live-action performance is very valuable to appreciate. There was also a live-action performance of "Chen Zhen" in Republic of China when we came in the afternoon.

The special effects are quite exciting. Compared with the film and television version, the real-life version of the performance is too powerful.

There is a daily water-splashing festival in the ancient city of Dali. Enjoy the water-splashing festival with beautiful Dai girls and enjoy the coolness of summer.

Then go to Xiangyang City to visit a market and watch a monkey show. By the way, you can go to various venues to see the life of the actors inside and outside the scenes. In fact, it is not easy to perform costume dramas under high temperatures!

In Xiangshan Film and Television City, you can see familiar scenes everywhere.

Ningbo old Bund

The most charming place at night in Ningbo must be the old Bund! You know what? The earliest Bund in China was not in Shanghai, but in Ningbo. Ningbo Old Bund is a port in Jiangbei District on the north bank of Sanjiangkou in Ningbo City. The port was opened in 1844. It is located in the center of Ningbo City, at the confluence of the Yongjiang River, Fenghua River and Yuyao River. It has been one of the most prosperous ports since the Tang and Song Dynasties and was once the earliest external port opening area among the "Five Ports Trade".

As a historical and cultural reserve, the Old Bund is a collective name for a block and is roughly divided into three blocks. In the middle is the main street, called Zhongma Road, and both sides of the street are full of Western-style buildings. There are many bars and restaurants open in Yangshan Lane and Erheng Street in the western district. The eastern district is Waima Road. This is a gathering area for the rich. Yachts are docked on the dock, and there are foreign shops and bars on the shore.

When you go to Ningbo's Old Bund during the day, you can visit historical buildings, which is more suitable for photography enthusiasts. The most charming time here should be at night. Now there are light shows along the river, and you can also take a yacht to experience a night tour of the Three Rivers. Standing on the yacht, the feeling of the river breeze is very comfortable. At this time, the bars in the alleys are also the busiest time. Basically, every household has a resident singer. The entire old Bund is shining with neon lights, giving it a unique style. This is the gathering place of Ningbo at night. It is young, romantic and full of vitality!

Tianyi Pavilion

Tianyi Pavilion, located in the urban area of Ningbo, is the oldest existing private library building in my country and one of the three oldest family libraries in the world. It was built during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty and was presided over by Fan Qin, the right assistant minister of the Ming Dynasty, who retired at that time. It covers an area of 26,000 square meters and has a history of more than 400 years.

The first statue you see inside Tianyi Pavilion is Fan Qin, the earliest builder of Tianyi Pavilion. It is said that Tianyi Pavilion got its name: Since it is a library building, what book paper is most afraid of is fire. Inspired by Zheng Xuan, a scholar of the Han Dynasty, who commented on the Book of Changes, that "the sky generates water, and the earth generates 60% of it." The book building was named "Tianyi Pavilion", which means "using water to make fire".

The brick carvings and walls in Tianyi Pavilion are of great appreciation value. There are also rockery and other stones used for decoration in courtyards and ponds. The stones used are all local Ningbo stones. Most Jiangnan gardens use Taihu Lake stones to decorate, and Fan Qin used Ningbo stones to decorate the courtyard at that time was a relatively frugal way.

The Tianyi Pavilion Library Building faces north to south. It is a two-story brick-and-wood structure with a hard hill-top multi-storey building. It has a height of 8.5 meters, a sloping roof and blue tiles. The first floor has six rooms wide and six rooms deep. Except for the stairwell, there is a large room on the second floor, separated by bookcases. A "Tianyi Pool" was built in front of the pavilion to Tongyue Lake. The garden has "blessing, wealth and longevity" as the overall shape, and rocks are piled up to form scenic spots such as "Nine Lions and One Elephant".

There are also many treasures "hidden" in Tianyi Pavilion, such as the "Wangong sedan chair" made in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. It is 3 meters high, 1.5 meters long, 0.95 meters wide, weighs about 200 kilograms, and requires eight people to carry it. This sedan chair is also a first-class sedan chair. The eaves of the sedan chair are composed of sixteen vermilion flower boards engraved with the stories of the characters. There are 317 characters in the entire sedan chair, which are lifelike. The entire sedan chair is made of carved wood, covered with red lacquer, and made of gold foil decals. It is resplendent. Due to its exquisite workmanship, it has the reputation of "the number one sedan chair in the world". It was owned by the Dechang Rental Shop in Ningbo at that time and was exclusively used by brides. Another example is the ancient stage of the Qin's branch temple. It was built from 1923 to 1925. It was built by the Qin people to sacrifice to their ancestors. The stage of the Qin's branch temple combines carvings, gold ornaments and paint, and it shines brightly. Its top is made up of thousands of carved tenons and tenons to form a dome-shaped caisson. Sixteen layers of Ruyi arches of different sizes form a spiral shape and rise step by step, interlocking with each other until the dome gathers, and covered with a "mirror" in the middle. It is firm and ingenious, which is the unique skill of small woodworkers in Ningbo.

During this trip to Tianyi Pavilion, I conducted a live broadcast and was very lucky to meet this "Cultural and Cultural Volunteer Tour Guide". They took it their duty to spread Chinese history and culture and provided voluntary explanation services to tourists, but they had to run into each other. Oh, I was very lucky this time! Although I have been to Tianyi Pavilion many times, compared to this time, it used to be called a garden visit. This time I truly learned about Tianyi Pavilion's rich history and culture!

fangte Oriental painting

At the beginning of last year, my parents and children traveled to Wuhu and experienced the fourth phase of the local Fangte Oriental Divine Painting. At that time, they had a great time with the two children and deeply fell in love with this amusement park with many elements of "modern new technology". This is a high-tech equipment resources such as laser multimedia, three-dimensional special effects, miniature real-life shows, and new interpretations of folk traditional art through in-depth creativity. A new concept theme park that perfectly combines the essence of China's five thousand years of history and culture with the modern tourism industry.

There are all the traditional amusement projects in the Oriental Divine Painting Park, including the colorful kingdom and the charm of Jiuzhou that are full of childhood fun, entertaining and promoting Chinese culture. There are also thrilling and adrenaline-stimulating jungle dragons, polar express trains, and fairy island exploration and other tours are suitable for the old and old.

However, I think that the most worthy experience of Fangte's Oriental God Paintings is the beautiful experience presented by using high-tech stage expression art in major venues. The Cowherd and Weaving Girl, the Battle of Jinshan Temple, the Legend of Butterfly Transformation, Meng Jiangnu, Nuwa Butian, etc. are integrated into the stories of Oriental God Paintings. There are also Liyuan Travels, which allows all tourists to get on the train and go to all parts of the country to watch folk operas together. The soaring horizon of China and Disneyland is exactly the same, taking you to fly and tour Jiuzhou. This kind of playing experience is so exciting.

In the Fonte Oriental God Painting, there are also large-scale outdoor projects such as the Everyday Water-Splashing Festival that tie the people's plot and reflect the great integration of various ethnic groups.

Ningbo Food Recommendation: Tiantian Fishing Port

To eat seafood in Shipu, you don't need to find a big hotel. The best seafood may be at the street stalls. Fresh seafood caught in the sea does not require special cooking techniques. It's boiled, salt water, onion oil... The simpler the dishes, the more it retains the original flavor of the seafood. We found the "Tiantian Fishing Port" at the intersection with a wide house and a clean and tidy store. After entering, we found that the small seafood here were all laid on ice cubes, and other vegetables were placed in the freezer. Guests choose the spot immediately, and what they see is what they get.

Recommended Xiangshan specialty fish noodles, which is a delicious food made with mackerel as the main ingredient. It tastes tender, refreshing, delicious, and has a clean color. It is a famous dish in Shipu; braised miscellaneous fish is a combination of freshly caught fish and braised together. There are small yellow croakers, small pomfret, small hairtail, etc. on the plate. The braised fish is more delicious ~, but you can still clearly distinguish the different flavors of sea fish on the tip of your tongue;? Scallion oil razor clams and scallion oil clams are must-ordered at every table. At this time, the razor clams and scallion clams are very strong and are good dishes for wine. Once fried in the oil, it will be very fragrant when sprinkled with chopped green onion;? The name of Xiaolong Tang is very interesting. It turns out to be tofu fish roasted tofu. There seems to be small yellow croakers in it. The soup is clear and delicious. The tofu and fish are super tender and melt in the mouth;?

Ningbo Food Recommendation: Oyster Fin

Ningbo is now ranked first in the barbecue category, and there are also many chain branches, suitable for midnight snacks. The variety of craft beers is very rich, and the restaurant's environment is very literary. I especially recommend his family's dazzling array of craft beers and barbecues, especially seafood porridge. The porridge made with fresh green crabs and Argenting red shrimp is so delicious!

Accommodation recommendation: Meihao Hotel Ningbo

It is a very warm and lovely cartoon parent-child room. The fully transparent window at night is the night light show of Ningbo's most fashionable water street. The hotel restaurant offers a free tea break all day long and provides a self-service laundry. Good value for money and I have stayed here many times.

PostScript

Ningbo is a very "playful" city with a strong historical heritage. In addition, you can experience different sea customs near the sea. The circle between scenic spots and scenic spots is basically no more than an hour's drive; visiting Ningbo is a very good place to visit the past or visit the present.
