The Spring Festival in 2020 was particularly early, so I made an appointment with friends in advance. There were two families in total. I rented a Datong G10 for seven people to ride in a car. I decided to set off from Shanghai for a walk and play during the Spring Festival and finally went to Hengyang, Hunan for an 11-day round trip, stopping and stopping.
Everything went smoothly, except that pneumonia broke out in Wuhan before the New Year. I was a little uneasy, but I didn't feel very serious. I left on time early on the 23rd on New Year's Eve.
The weather is bad, it's a little rainy, I like the Spring Festival highway. There are no big cars, and there are not many small cars on New Year's Eve. Today's target is Quzhou, Zhejiang. Two families and two children are chatting and laughing, all the way to the G60 highway and the rest area for lunch. Many people have begun to put on masks, and their mobile phones are constantly reporting the epidemic in Wuhan, which seems to be out of control. Everything went smoothly on the road. Long You got off the highway and required a body temperature test. It was estimated that the equipment was prepared in a hurry, so he directly put on the earwarmer. The accuracy was enough. He randomly checked the drivers. It seems that things have changed a little.
Lai Longyou wanted to see Jiang Xiyan, so he drove in the village and followed the navigation to the river. The ancient weir here is located in Houtianpu Village, lower reaches of Lingshan Port, Longyou County, Zhejiang Province. This place was included in the World Irrigation Engineering Heritage List in 2018. There are no tickets here, there are already some developments around, and there are no tourists on New Year's Eve. Feel free to take a look. The Jiangxiyan Project consists of five parts: upper weir, sand bar, lower weir, flood collection and sand sluice and canal head branch sluice. The entire hub is connected by sandbars in the river, connected to Jiangyan on the upper side and Xiyan on the lower side, forming a dam about 630 meters long and slightly resembling a right-angle shape. The bold idea of using sand bars and dams on the river course and superb weir-building skills are a major feature of Jiangxi Weir and are very rare in the history of water control in China.
The dam made of square rocks is very tangible. Although each rock has been soaked by the river for more than 600 years, its veins are still clear and neat and beautiful. When the upstream river passes through the dam, the originally rapid river obviously slows down and becomes elegant and sluggish. The entire railing dam is constructed with pine wood to build frames one by one, and then rocks are filled into the frames. Pine wood has very good water erosion resistance. It will not rot in water for thousands of years and will be used for a long time. An ancient weir that is more than 600 years old has been silently playing its role for hundreds of years, nourishing the irrigation area and benefiting the people. It is well worth a visit.
Leave Jiang Xiyan and drive to Jiangshan City and stay in Junlan. Jiangshan International Resort Hotel is preparing to visit Jianglang Mountain the next day. There are very few New Year's Eve restaurants, and all the restaurants in the hotel are booked. We can only eat our own New Year's Eve dinner. All kinds of food are very rich. It is very comfortable to look at the night view of the riverside outside the balcony.
The next day, the rain was heavy, and the epidemic in Wuhan became more serious. My friend couldn't stand it and wanted to go back early. We unanimously decided to finish visiting Jianglang Mountain today, return home tomorrow and cancel the follow-up itinerary. The breakfast at the hotel is good. After breakfast, we set off for Jianglang Mountain and took half an hour to go directly to the scenic area. Due to New Year's Eve, there were no tourists in the scenic area, and the staff also got off work early. We could only casually walk around Jianglang Mountain and go to the best photography spot. -Tianbanjiang Lang, regrettably shrouded in clouds, we could only visit here to have a general view. We decided to visit Jianglang Mountain again early the next day.
After leaving Jianglang Mountain, drive to Xianxia Pass first, and drive dozens of kilometers directly to the scenic spot. There are no tourists, the staff are resting, and the environment is good. Xianxia Pass is located at the junction of Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi provinces. In ancient times, it was called Guquan Mountain and Quanling Mountain, Jianmen Pass, Hangu Pass and Yanmen Pass, and was also called China's four major ancient passes. The east and west of Xianxia Pass are connected to high mountains, and there is a narrow road communicating between the north and south. It is the throat point for Xi'An County of ancient Quzhou Prefecture (modern Quzhou Prefecture, Zhejiang Province) to and from Jianzhou Prefecture (modern Jianou Prefecture, Fujian Province). Xianxia Pass is famous for its majesty and steepness. It is often called "the key to Zhejiang and Fujian, and the throat to Fujian." It has always been a battleground for military strategists. Xianxia Pass has four gates and a five-kilometer ancient road built of marble. It is the most completely preserved site of the Huangchao Uprising in the late Tang Dynasty in China. There are no tourists here, and the surrounding area is relatively desolate. The tour experience is also very good. It drizzles continuously, and people eat their own lunch in the parking lot at the entrance and watch the news in Wuhan.
After leaving Xianxia Pass, we continued south and headed straight to 2badu. We bought fireworks on the way. There were no staff, no tickets, and no tourists on New Year's Eve. There were only local residents in the clean ancient town. It was very comfortable to stroll around with the baby. 2badu Town is located on the border of Zhejiang, Fujian and Jiangxi provinces, with convenient transportation. National Highway 205 runs through the town. More than 1100 years ago, Huang Chao swung his sword south and opened up an ancient Xianxia Road in the mountains between Zhejiang and Fujian. From then on, the 28th capitals surrounded by passes and surrounded by mountains have become camps for generations. A battleground for military strategists. The thousand-year-old ancient road, which was originally mainly for military purposes, gradually became an important business route in the Qing Dynasty. Ships traveling up the Qiantang River loaded cloth and daily necessities from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to dock at Qinghu Wharf in Jiangshan, and then turned to land, carried by carriers with poles on their shoulders to Fujian and Jiangxi. Local specialties from Fujian and Jiangxi also have to be shipped to Qinghu and shipped to Jinqu, Shanghai and Hangzhou. As the first stop for passing cargo transit and a must-pass transportation hub, 2badu quickly became the most prosperous commercial port on the border of the three provinces. In its heyday, commercial shops, restaurants and inns were filled with the entire cobblestone street. People traveled daily and merchants stopped at night. They came from south to north every day, bustling and prosperous for hundreds of years. I bought snacks in the few open shops in the ancient town and had fun. Except for the lack of excitement, it was really nice to have fun on New Year's Eve.
After leaving 28du and returning to Jiangshan City, I successfully closed down all subsequent hotels today, and all original prices were refunded. Everything was to make way for Wuhan, and the epidemic became more and more serious. The hotel still has no place to eat, and we have enough food for us to have a special New Year's Eve dinner. Watching the Spring Festival Gala and smoking red envelopes is also lively.
On the first day of the first month of the Lunar Year of the Rat, it was still raining heavily. I had a good breakfast, packed my luggage, and went to Jianglang Mountain on the second day. Unfortunately, the door was locked. Due to the epidemic, all scenic spots in Zhejiang were closed. There was no opening schedule, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier. It was time to go home.
There weren't many buses on the road, and we rushed to the G60 all the way. There weren't many people in the rest area. Fortunately, there were food and drink. Passing through Zhuji, I got off the highway to find a place for the babies to set off fireworks. The temperature check at the intersection was strict, and everyone had to check it. I found a small road in the factory area, and the babies were so happy to set off fireworks, a joy that Shanghai couldn't experience.
I entered Shanghai after four o'clock, but the inspection was not very strict. There were police and epidemic prevention personnel at the crossing, but they were basically released directly. The external sign in front was also released. It seems that Shanghai's vigilance is not enough.
The 11-day trip was shortened to 3 days. It was a regrettable Spring Festival self-driving tour. Everything was for safety, and I couldn't go out when I returned to Shanghai. The epidemic was unexpectedly serious, and the holiday was extended to the 16th day of the first lunar month. I hope everything will get better as soon as possible. Next year, I will still take my baby to play and set off fireworks.
