The Ming Dynasty Gaofang, a typical old Huizhou residential house, features not only pink walls and black tiles, but also horse heads and upturned corners. The gatehouse is exquisite, and many wooden components, such as eaves, rafters, wall tiles, and hanging lotus columns, have been replaced with brick and stone carvings. From then on, the pink walls became lively and vivid, creating a three-dimensional hollow relief. The current plaque has moved into Duoyun Academy, which truly fits the scholarly family, Hanlin Mansion, Dafu Mansion, lush bamboo and pine trees, and purple energy coming from the east. We are moved by our own academy, Duoyun Academy, where there is a golden house in the book and a beautiful face in the book.
Our entrance is highly ceremonial, with code and card swiping precise to the individual. The first hall we enter distinguishes the entrance and exit, and we activate the Cloud Reading mode from the right side.
On the right side, it is completely transparent. There is no room separation in the traditional sense. The carved beams and painted rafters that cannot be moved are in the middle. Most of the books and a few ink treasures are displayed here, including reading materials for the general public, open shelves, and niche audiences, displayed through niche windows.
Ping and I unconsciously arrived at the turning point of the academy. Seeing tea and coffee being sold, we guessed that this should be the third entrance hall of the ancient courtyard. What about the second entrance? We need to place an order before we can see you back.
We couldn't get around the hurdle, so we ordered latte and Americano before crossing the high hurdle and entering a courtyard. Continuing forward, we reached the tea room caf é. There are already drinks, food, and tea breaks for men and women in the central position C. We chose a position on the right, far away from the doorway, to sit and enjoy the aroma of coffee.
Idle, looking up at the location, this should be the second entrance of the tall house. Between the two courtyards, the one in the front is called Songshi Realm, and the one behind is Shuiyun Township. Apart from Bixing, the meaning behind it is not difficult to guess that it is the ancient Songjiang Cloud Realm.
Thinking of Wang who hasn't arrived yet ying、ting、lan, I casually glanced and Lan replied, 'It's stuck on the entrance road.'. And Ting casually said: I've slept in and just set off. Haha, I've slept, dreamed, been here, time has passed.
From now on, it's time for reading. One of the things I read is' Hockney's Pictures'; Secondly, 'This is China'. With ease, I felt a fresh and highly decorative atmosphere emanating from Hockney. A cup of bitter coffee brought sweetness after bitterness, and my eyes were filled with the bright and clean colors of Hockney. Sometimes I thought of Gauguin, and sometimes I thought of Van Gogh.
At this moment, the buzzing of Wang WeChat came: We (Wang, Ying, Lan) have arrived. I subconsciously checked the time, 10:40, and we have been sitting at Duoyun Academy for an hour now.
Drinking tea and tea, the seats instantly became crowded. With the addition of tea and snacks, tea cups, teapots, and a sea of tea, as well as tea lotus and tea leakage, the entire tea table was immediately filled. My book needs to be moved.
Wang warmed the cup and woke up to brew tea. The tea cup immediately filled with the fragrance of tea. After taking a sip, the bitterness separated, and the bitterness was indeed still there, but the bitterness was reduced. Some people even drank the sweet fragrance of osmanthus.
The Ting, who arrived the latest, was full of confidence because there were people inside and the waiter couldn't stop them at all.
11: 45. We left the Duoyun Academy, where the gate tower of the Ming Dynasty high house once again became our focus. The same scene moved us twice. Duoyun Academy truly impressed you!
The next attraction is not explicitly stated in the guide, and everyone has decided to go with the flow. Whatever you encounter, you get what you get. Today is a hot day, so we need to take it easy, go ahead with ease, and go light.
To the north, after the flourishing clouds and the magnificent memorial archway, there is a long bridge. The scenery is not on the bridge. We left a picture of the east of the bridge.
As for the scenery in the west of the bridge, we still have to walk for a while. After crossing two small bridges in succession, the brick red Guangfulin Archaeological Site Exhibition Hall appeared in front of us. It was like a collection of numerous jars and pots, with a volume of 7788 square meters, which attracted us to pay for a visit. It felt like we had been enchanted.
While walking, Wang became a popular science educator in archaeology. The roots of Shanghai, Qingpu and Songjiang each hold their own views, Songze culture, and Guangfulin culture. In terms of their age, Songze culture is even earlier in the Shanghai area, connected to the Majiabang culture and the Liangzhu culture; And the Guangfulin culture is just a node between the Liangzhu culture and the Maqiao culture. Nowadays, Songjiang has taken over and developed it, which can be considered as grasping the roots.
Knowledge has increased, they are all treasures, such as jade cong, jade bracelet, stone plow, and stone fan. Wang's footnote: Jade Cong, with an inner circle and an outer circle, connects heaven and earth. And Shifan, on the other hand, refers to stone tool molds, yin molds, and yang molds, which may be the earliest origin of the term 'model'. The location of Room 12, intuitively, should be a ground level building, not a semi subterranean building.
Seeing his temperament, Wang privately taught Lan one by one, the so-called geological age, the so-called Chinese era.
The entire exhibition hall, we entered at 12:15 and left at 12:45, benefited greatly from half an hour of archaeological enlightenment. We got it from this trick and it's worth it!
It's already lunchtime, but we're completely focused and still walking on the path of searching for scenery. The third scene that followed, although we didn't put in much effort and didn't take long, was our deliberate act. We pretended to be in Kyoto, but the Fulin Pagoda was mistakenly seen as the three story pagoda of Kiyomizu Temple; The corridor of Sanyuan Palace looks like the Thirty Three Halls, Ha Ri. In fact, we also want to pretend to be in Chang'an, pretending to be in Yiluo, but during the Tang Dynasty, there were too many wooden buildings that were different from brick and stone, making it difficult to survive until now. The road to Yiluo for ten years is long, and the absence of Chang'an is worrying!
Knowledge tip: Pagodas can be classified into tower style, dense eave style, lama style, diamond throne style, and tomb tower style according to their types; According to building materials, they can be divided into wood, brick and stone, metal, glass, etc. The number of floors in a tower is usually very particular, mostly in singular form, and the numbers on each floor have different meanings. The 7 layers represent 7 treasures: gold, silver, glass, clams, agate, pearls, and roses. The 13th layer represents the thirteen sects in China, and 13 is an auspicious number in Buddhism. The 13th layer represents the perfection of merit and virtue. As the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven level pagoda, which refers to a seven story tower. The graphic design of the tower mainly includes square and octagonal shapes, as well as hexagonal, twelve cornered, and circular shapes. It is generally composed of an underground palace, a base, a tower body, and a treasure temple.
The Fulin Pagoda, a triple pagoda with its spire pointing directly to the sky, is the most outstanding scenery in Guangfulin. The entire pagoda is calm and elegant, implicit and down-to-earth. The pagoda has three layers, symbolizing the three realms, the multitude of people, and the endless sea of suffering. As practitioners and enlightened beings, we only wait for the day when we reach the golden stone and open it up with sincerity. At that time, we have already walked from the kingdom of necessity to the kingdom of freedom in the middle. Quietly thinking about it, experiencing pain and happiness is not a waste of joy. Haha, we can really laugh out loud. Our realm is not high, we can't go far, we're still in the Three Realms.
At this moment, my phone beeps: Do you need a seat for Xidi steak? No, I have to rush to the dining appointment at Lushan Renri Restaurant (Songjiang Impression City). After going through hardships and hardships, we still have not given up our love for a luxurious life!
Where is Ying? The family bucket of six people, with only Ying missing, is probably still in the San Yuan Palace. Lan left behind his own affairs to search for it. To be honest, Ying likes to take photos, but in the end, we rarely get to see her sample photos. It's really amazing?!
13: 00, we finally gathered enough people to leave. Take a photo and leave some thoughts. Goodbye Guangfulin!
We thought of ordering a table, but we never expected to book a parking spot. After a long journey, three cars that took advantage of the opportunity were parked in different positions in Songjiang Impression City, east, west, north, and south. However, this time it was Ting and Lan who rushed ahead, followed by Wang and Ying, and Ping and I. They only arrived after 13:50 to take their seats.
The family banquet began here. Lan was confident and ordered the exquisite four person package provided by the shop, which was highly cost-effective and suitable for groups! That's a pleasant decision, to place an order from the four person package and add two hot stir fries. My drink is cola, and the rest is oolong tea for self drinking.
By the way, I also paid attention to the tableware on the dining table. Japanese tableware is always exquisite and has a suitable hand feel. Sushi chopsticks, flavor plates, plates, and bowl shaped utensils are all made of ceramics, except for wooden chopsticks. I have previously seen another way to write bowls, which is to use a bowl made entirely of wood. This skin friendly bowl gives it an extraordinary appearance, sensibility, and even spirituality. It is truly a great utensil for both men and women in food and drink.
The waiter served the dishes in sequence, but I forgot the order and only remembered two orgasms.
One is the climax of satisfying the appetite, with live sea bream, sashimi, and red wine foie gras. The softest part of the taste is the red wine foie gras, which melts in the mouth. In addition to a light wine flavor, what cannot be melted is the strong milk aroma that surpasses the cheese flavor. Gourmet Wang's review: Good taste, but red wine foie gras, not whole pieces, are all scraps, collected from small pieces to create a delicious taste. The hardest part of the taste is the sashimi of the shiitake fish. Apart from the snow and frost feeling of the fish seeds, the rest is hard. Yellowtail fish is delicious, salmon is plump, and there are also tuna, sea bream, peony shrimp, and Arctic shellfish. Comment from Little Gourmet Lan: As for salmon, if you want to love, you need to love your belly. In the future, when lunch arrived, in addition to ice cream, it really added a lot of belly pressure, which was a bit difficult, but Lan and I still took on the contract.
Another climax was the overflowing childlike wonder of Wagyu's birthday pot. It was already early on the pot, and we called the waiter to add another fire. Wagyu arrived late, and after a moment of confusion, Wagyu, like mushrooms, tofu, konjac, and baby bok choy, had all become cooked. It was already 15:40, and the waiter had mostly rested. At this time, eating and drinking were no longer important. The only remaining dishes were snapper, a whole live fish made into sashimi, and everyone couldn't see waste. They put raw snapper in the pot as cooking material, but Wang was the one to pick the head. Ying, ping, and ting shouted and cheered, while Lan watched coldly. I, on the other hand, was seeking help. With the permission of the waiter, this fish can really be cooked! Others laugh at me for being too crazy, but I laugh at others for not being able to see through it. Our childlike innocence is not old, and our curiosity comes just in time.
Paying the bill, the waiter smiled at Alipay's charges. We were too full for this meal!
Eating too much can cause trouble, so we made an appointment to exercise and swim at the hotel.
Shimao Intercontinental Hotel
The hotel we booked, Shimao Intercontinental, also known as Shenkeng Hotel, is a big internet celebrity. It is open all year round, allowing many non hotel guests to enjoy the hotel's facilities and services, such as Cantonese cuisine at Caifenglou and afternoon tea at Yunjian Jiufeng.
We don't care, even if it's a pit, we have to get in! Our fleet of three cars, Wang's car, arrived early, while the remaining two were blocked. A long queue formed on the inner lane, and my car was next to Ting. Lan, who was beside me, was anxious and uploaded the hotel reservation form, reminding him to plug in if possible and take a detour. This trick is quite effective. Simple things are not complicated. We entered this deep pit like swimming fish at 16:50.
Wang and Lan checked in at the lobby, while the rest waited in the nearby long corridor. While enjoying the water curtain show in the lobby, we also felt the various disdainful looks from the men and women during the tea break. We were hindering them! After the water curtain show is over, our check-in has also been completed.
We have officially entered the pit, the deep pit of Shimao Intercontinental, it is really a pit, not just an empty name. The check-in time is too tight and European, and it can only be done after 3:00 pm, with no possibility of early check-in. The hotel gate was blocked by many non resident vehicles, forcing us to illegally enter. After finally getting into the hotel and checking in, the last few dozen steps were stuck at the elevator entrance. Despite the large size of the hotel, with fifteen underground floors and G and UG, even during peak dining hours, there were only four elevators in operation at most. We gentlemen respectfully entered our respective garnet themed rooms, Ting and Lan 621, Ping and I 627, Wang and Ying worked hard, and the agreed upon room 628 is still being cleaned up.
Our Room 627: The room is neat and the facilities are average. Although it is a high-end room, it does not have the expected sense of luxury. The room is equipped with an intelligent small degree system that can control curtains, air conditioning, and music through voice control. Moving onto the terrace, we can sit down or chat freely. As the sun sets, the cliff across from us showcases a lively oil painting of Hengshan Waterfall scenery. From it, we can interpret red, orange, yellow, and green, as well as wind, rain, and neon lights.
Today is the hottest October 3rd in meteorology, and after the heat, you have to go back to your room to enjoy the comfort of air conditioning. Good news from Lan's WeChat: The drinks in the fridge are free! Good news! What a Fido Dido, sparkling and refreshing, let's spread it to each other!
As for the bathroom, to be honest, I personally don't like rectangular washbasins. The water is too shallow, and even on hot days, I can't fully enjoy washing my face.
After taking a shower, Ping and I rested for a while. Around 18:00, Wang outside the door asked about swimming, and I broke the appointment. Shimao Intercontinental offers a wide range of sports activities, including rock climbing, paddleboarding, go karting, fitness, swimming, and Wang chose swimming.
In the future, Ping and I will descend to the 14th floor of the Earth's Center observation platform, which is also a stage for light, shadow, water curtain, and drone performances. At first, there were only a few sporadic people, but when Ting, Lan, and Ying joined, people suddenly became enthusiastic.
Taking photos is necessary. At this moment, Wang is flapping in the swimming pool shown in the picture, with a strong sense of immersion in the image. Afterwards, Wang said he swam 10 laps in one breath, amazing, my king! Continue tomorrow!
19: 30. The water curtain light and shadow show started on time. In the dazzling sound and light performance, I almost called a deer a horse. With my eyes fixed, I snapped out of my senses and saw that it was a deer. Suddenly, it was just a divine deer, the love of the children. They were running around and the children were overjoyed. As adults, sentimentality gives way to rationality, so we lose this imaginative and immersive experience. Keeping a distance may be our last stubbornness.
The subsequent drone performance, with geometric patterns changing in the air, is said to be a group exercise and square dance of forty-two drones. Can you take us to play together? I can contribute a DJI to share.
Of course, this is just a joke. It's already close to 20:00, and the top priority should be to manage our dinner. I uploaded the 6-person group meal at Caifeng Building on WeChat, and everyone agreed that they were powerless because the dishes were too rich, and they were afraid that their stomachs wouldn't be able to hold them. The final decision is still to have a drink at Caifeng Building on the UG level.
Caifeng Tower is not something that can be entered simply by entering. We have to wait until the yellow flowers have cooled down, at 20:20, before the receptionist will lead us into the table. One person can order a meal, or a dish or rice. Soon, when the truffle sauce is baked, the vegetable heart, Wuliangye tender bean sprouts, roast bran, bamboo shoots and chicken soup Maqiao tofu, Caifenglou New Year cake Braised pork belly in brown sauce, Maotaro salted pork vegetable rice, Niusong Fried Rice are all put together into a table, but I don't know who ordered one more. Wang, Ying, and I each have a beer, while Ping, Ting, and Lan have tea. In this meal, we had the scorching bitterness of truffles, the strong smell of jade liquid of bean sprouts, the beany unfashionable smell of Maqiao tofu, and the fat but not greasy Braised pork belly in brown rice cake. Finally, we dried the wine, drank the tea, packed the Braised pork belly, and booked dinner for tomorrow. Most importantly, Wang paid the meal fee into the room card.
Let's make an appointment for a buffet breakfast at 8:30 in the Ming Dynasty. From now on, everyone will go back to their accommodation and rest! Ping and I have really rested, and there may still be some who cannot rest. We speculate about their current state, whether it's fitness, writing, watching TV shows, or making money.
On Tuesday, Wang got up early and Ping and I rushed to an evening gathering. Wang had two small bowls of Century egg Congee+some Aozao noodles. At 8:00, he had already finished the buffet breakfast. He was walking on the geocentric viewing platform in the deep pit, and Wang thought it was me. Actually, our Liming is quiet and peaceful. At this moment, Ping and I are still sleeping in our dreams, making Wang think about it like this and wake up. Ting was puzzled and couldn't figure it out: it's very unusual, this is not the original style! Has the wind direction changed? Is there a northwest wind? Has it cooled down?
8: At 30, Ping and I were queuing up at the G-level Source Coffee Restaurant, waiting for the self-service breakfast table arrangement. The surroundings were filled with decadent and sophisticated faces. Shao Qing, the table has been reserved. Not far away, I saw Ting and Lan eating. They greeted each other and went their separate ways. Ying only came from the restaurant to assist at 9:00.
The little sister in the camera is beautiful and lifeless, calm and composed. We envy and envy her, that hatred!
Calm down and do what we should do. Let's eat. Seeing this is not as good as telling. First, we have Chinese food, Century egg Congee+Pickled vegetables+Spring rolls+deep-fried dough sticks. After tasting it, I feel good! Continuing with Western cuisine, Kesong+oat milk+coffee, it can be considered an additional meal, and the sense of happiness is overflowing! Do you have Japanese meals? Natto+sun eggs, average, better than nothing!
Finally, with the fruit platter, we also completed our respective buffet breakfasts.
9: 45. We have made an appointment for afternoon tea at Cloud Nine Peaks on the G floor, which is the most representative of the ceremony of Shenkeng Hotel. It is not an option, but a must-have bonus! And set off at 11:00 to climb Sheshan.
There is still time, we will look for the deep secret of the hotel on the G floor, a glass walkway, a suspension cableway, and a ferris wheel. We have seen the beginning of the glass walkway, but not the end.
Xisheshan
Today is the Double Ninth Festival, and the weather is not very good. It's cool with occasional light rain. Our focus is to climb high on the ninth day of the Double Ninth Festival and reach the West Sheshan Mountain. 11: At 00, we departed on time and arrived at the Sheshan parking lot within a short distance. It took us an hour to arrive, and during the National Day holiday, the Double Ninth Festival was celebrated, with crowds of tourists. This is the scene we had already anticipated.
Sheshan distinguishes between east and west Sheshan. Our trip is to West Sheshan, which is towering at 98.8 meters. The main building is the Catholic Church on the top of the mountain, which can be easily reached by the naked eye. We followed the crowd and detoured around the east gate, entering through the north gate on the Outer Qingsong Highway. Health code, travel code, location code, layer by layer increase, after temperature measurement, there is also a visual inspection level. When we relax, a lot of time and energy are not a problem, they can all be used as consumables to be consumed.
Ascending the stairs, Ping is assisted by a hiking stick, while the rest relies solely on foot strength. Wang walks in front, while I walk behind, with Ying, Ping, Ting, and Lan connected in between. As I walk, a faint sound of a warning enters my ear canal. Do you experience auditory hallucinations? I asked Ping, and I heard that it's really accurate! Following the sound, the mother holding hands with the little girl on the side smiled and said, 'Oh, hey, this is a great Chinese voice, voiced by Xiao Du.'.
Wang stopped at the Xiudao Pagoda, which is a scenic spot in the Middle Way. The Xiudao Pagoda, along with the Xiuhua Temple it relies on, is a millennium old pagoda with seven levels of floating slaughter. Its craftsmanship far surpasses the Fulin Pagoda we see in Guangfulin; The temple has long been reduced to an empty shell, only a bell tower. The couplet in front of the door reads: "Enter the world, cultivate the Tao with wood and stone, recite, benefit the world, and enjoy the scenery of clouds and waters. It is catchy, but has a flowing sentiment.
A recreational area displays famous figures from the ancient Songjiang region, among which the most famous is Lu Ji and Lu Yun from Yuchai Kungang. The earliest celebrities in my mind from Songjiang and even Shanghai were the people of Songze, Liangzhu, Guangfulin, and Maqiao. It was these ancient humans who created the brilliant Songze culture, Liangzhu culture, Guangfulin culture, and Maqiao culture. As for individuals, it dates back to the Western Jin Dynasty during the Three Kingdoms period. As for the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period, the Prince of Chunshen, Huang Xie, who was not originally from Shanghai, his fiefdom was changed from Huaibei to Wu, which connected him with Shanghai. Starting from the Three Kingdoms and the Western Jin Dynasty, the two continents were ignited by the flames of fire. Lu Zhi and Huang Daopo passed on the torch from generation to generation, giving rise to Xu Jie, Dong Qichang, Xu Guangqi, Xia Yunyi, Xia Wanchun and his son, Chen Zilong, Qian Daxin, and others shining like stars.
Continuing upwards is the Sheshan Astronomy Museum, an old observatory that closed due to the lack of darkness caused by excessive light stimulation. Its current function is dedicated to science popularization education. The Sheshan Observatory is a pioneer in the natural science system, and is the first of its kind in China.
During our tour, we had a discussion. Among the many ancient celebrities in Shanghai, Wang highly praised Xu Guangqi from Xujiahui. The reason why Xu Guangqi played a great role was that he surpassed the inevitable logic of the feudal empire and pointed out another possible path for China's development. He shifted from conservatism, introversion, and stubbornness to openness and flexible development. This was a soul level innovation. The most terrifying enemy of civilization is isolation. Although it was abandoned halfway, fortunately it was continued in the late Qing Dynasty, and thus began an era of constant awakening.
Xu Guangqi was a scholar, a Christian, and a pioneer beyond his time. Wang talked endlessly, and we were first stunned, followed by the enlightened enlightenment of entering the path of moral cultivation.
Xujiahui is the ancestral land of Xu Guangqi and Xu family. At that time, it was a remote and impoverished area. Xu was a pioneer in paving the way, and the Tianyao Bridge Road that connected Zhaojiabang was the overpass and smooth road that Xu family excavated to lead to heaven and light. When the key was opened, it was in our hands.
Why were early churches located in remote areas? Generally speaking, the degree of secularization in central urban areas is relatively high, and early missionary work could only reach marginalized areas that were not as mainstream. If you love tourism, there are too many churches in western China, most of which are built by missionaries. Wide planting does not necessarily mean low income. Most of them work part-time and have too many vests. In addition to preaching, they also work part-time in exploration and archaeology, adding the aura of naturalists and geographers to their bodies.
We have reached the highest level, the Sheshan Catholic Church, a miracle in a small place, also known as the Hall of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which is the most important pilgrimage site for Catholics in China. Today, there is no formal pilgrimage, so we can focus on it. We have visited Sheshan Catholic Church many times, but we have not gained as much experience as we do today, perhaps due to the commentary of Wang's Xu Guangqi. If three people walk together, there will be my teacher; if six people walk together, there will be my stars and sea.
At this moment, Ping's feet hurt and he let go. We all remember one name, Xu Guangqi.
Returning to the parking lot, it was already 1:00 pm. Looking back at Sheshan, the mountain was still in good condition; People, you've worked hard!
Ting's mobile phone searches for the next attraction, Shanghai Poly Cloud Theater, Songjiang Old Town, a distance of 10km, requiring a half-hour drive. The phone still has content, but there was a parking violation. Yesterday's Impression City, the earliest to enter the Japanese food store, all came at a cost. Do you still need to go to the Cloud Theater? Lan is resolute: go, of course go!
The Shanghai Poly Yunjian Theater, officially named Yunjian Hall Cultural and Art Center, covers the Songjiang District Cultural Center, Library, District Cultural Resource Distribution Center, Yunjian Theater, Yunjian Hall Art Exhibition Hall, and Small Theater. 14: 10. We parked our car in the underground parking garage of the Cultural and Art Center. As the way out was not visible from north to south, we followed the security guard through the unused library and broke through the door.
On one side is the Drunken White Pool entrance and exit of Metro Line 9, while the Yunjian Theater is located in an eastbound position. The buildings here are like a slowly opened pre Qin bamboo slips, thick, cultural, and nostalgic. Passing through the central artificial water pool, it's the Cloud Theater. Ting, Lan, and I only focus on the exterior; And Wang, Ying, and Ping entered the Cloud Theater to explore the subtleties inside, even though the ticket inspector shouted and the children's play started, they were not moved.
The plot of a children's drama with a sense of innocence, with a preference for the fun of pebbles sinking into water. The show is still on the way, but the security guards come to a living to stop it.
Our best show is the upcoming performances of "The Count of Wulong Mountain", "Thief Wants to Get You", "Guess How Much I Love You", and "A Dream of Floating Life" at Yunjian Theater. One of the shows is already quite good, with four coming out at once. Our character has exploded!
Why don't you go to lunch, Iron Man! Don't worry, this is our pre-set joke. The lunch matter will be resolved in the afternoon tea when we return to the Shimao Deep Pit.
Shimao Intercontinental Hotel
Leaving aside half an hour on the road, at 15:20, we were already sitting on the Cloud Nine Peaks on the G level of Shimao Intercontinental, enjoying the long-awaited afternoon tea. Black tea and coffee, we each take what we need. Remember that I am American, and the afternoon tea culture originated from England, so there should be more British elements. However, our afternoon tea is not British, without the embellishment of shiny silverware and the contrast of bone like English porcelain. The surrounding atmosphere is also not suitable for the occasion. The noisy and noisy guests are all waiting for check-in. We can only empathize with and understand the white eyes we experienced yesterday.
At our disorderly dining table, the waiters added fresh fruits and drinks. The three layers of Dim sum were not dressed, but they had to support the fallen Macaron from time to time. At 15:30, we officially opened our lunch. Wang, ting and lan were the fierce players in the afternoon tea hunt. Wang started from the bottom Ferrero style crisps, and ting and lan popularized the tea guide. Desserts and salty snacks were generally from salty to sweet.
So complicated, how could the remaining three novices have seen this situation before? They looked at each other and said, 'It's not British anymore. Eating recklessly is also eating!'!
Lan said about the crab meat tower, and the delicious sturgeon seeds. Wang pointed out that the hazelnut crisps were too crispy, while Ting felt that the maska balls were still silky smooth, and each bite brought happiness. Ping's Dim sum is too sweet and greasy. Ying stole the plate and pushed the last macaron to me.
Today at Jiufeng in Yunjian, our afternoon tea is different from others in that it takes the least amount of time. 16: 10. We bid farewell to Old Wang next door and went back to our rooms to rest.
After a full meal, we have to walk around. Ping and I digest on the terrace, watch the scenery, read books, and chat with Ying who lives next door. The idle books around me, such as' Beautiful Tuscany ', as we read and shared a thought in our bucket:
Idle, read a paragraph from 'Beautiful Tuscany': The world is getting smaller and we are becoming more and more similar. Can we maintain the footsteps of a thousand years ago? We have come to Tuscany. In Tuscany, our warmth is always present. In fact, we don't have to go so far. With the current Sheshan Shimao, we can feel the warmth and hospitality.
Dongdong, Dongdong, open the door. Ting and Lan hit the door: Venus or not? Is it Xifani? Just afternoon tea, even five-star Dim sum can't bear it! Then leave it there and wait until you remember before eating. Thank you! Sitting for a moment, Ting and Lan sent warmth to Wang and Ying in room 628 next door.
17: 30. Wang invited me to swim, but I couldn't break the appointment this time. I went down to the 14th floor swimming pool and registered for warm-up. Wang poured hot water and steamed it first; I soaked myself with cold water and went into the pool first. By the way, I asked other swimmers that the temperature of the pool water was 28 degrees. After thanking them, I leaned in and entered the pool.
The swimming pool is too small and shallow. After swimming 4 laps, Wang also entered the pool. Swimming another lap, I took my leave to rinse off, Wang continued.
18: At 00, passing by the gym, I saw Ying and Ting walking fast on the treadmill, while Lan was playing with her bike. I greeted them, and the little girl next to me gave way to the treadmill, saying that her exercise for today had ended. I'm really sorry, you saw me pretending to be fast walking on the treadmill.
Ying and Ting walked for over half an hour, and I persisted for 15 minutes. When we all finished exercising, Lan continued. The little girl just now looked envious and muttered, 'Little sister, you're amazing!'! Exercise addiction, exercise produces dopamine, exercise makes people more beautiful!
Is dinner still the 6-person group meal booked at Caifeng Building on UG floor last night? It was so hot that everyone thought about the Braised pork belly packed yesterday, and withdrew. Ting said that he would order takeout later.
After exercising, I went back to my accommodation to take care of it. Ping informed me that I had replied to the phone call about the group meal at Caifeng Building earlier.
It's already 19:30, and the hotel's light and shadow show has started again. This time I feel like I've cut corners a lot more than last night. It wasn't long before the show, and I only heard their voices and didn't see their shadows.
Under the Ting and Lan floors, someone set off handheld fireworks. We have pictures and the truth.
The takeout has been ordered! Ting made a slight gesture; The takeout has arrived, everyone. You can have a group meal in Room 621! Ting paused for a second time, which was very similar to the gathering of classmates during their student days. Our digestive gland secretion was delayed for an hour from head to stomach.
Eating dry noodles and rice, Ting chose two restaurants for takeout: Ha Ling Noodle Shop and Jiangnan New Zhejiang Cuisine Restaurant. Ha Ling's signature dish is WaWa Cai Beef Frog Noodles, as well as Tomato Beef Noodles and Fried Pork Chop; In Jiangnan, there are black truffle beef Fried Rice, garlic mashed broccoli, and home cooked broad beans. We enjoyed eating noodles and rice while admiring the light and shadow show, laughing and laughing. Looking at the dishes and thinking about them, the atmosphere was much more relaxed and relaxed than last night. We exchanged various worries during meals, Wang was afraid of being too full, Ying was afraid of not being spicy, Ping was afraid of being greasy, Lan was afraid of gaining weight, I was afraid of not being full, Ting summarized, it's difficult to reconcile everyone's opinions, they are not fuel-efficient lamps, you can handle it yourself in the future!
Eating takeout in a five-star hotel is the first time in my life. From initially wondering if takeout could go deep into the pit, to having enough to eat and drink, and achieving a single delivery order, we, who are both troublesome and afraid of things, experienced the joy of takeout: with a low threshold, we have multiple choices, such as ordering and blending dishes. Although it slightly lowers our taste and reduces the beauty of the presentation, it still allows us to stay away from the pain of washing and save precious time to do what we love. Why not enjoy it?!
This topic between us can also become a topic for those who are interested, conducting research to produce a report, and drafting a title that can also go viral, which is' After backstabbing, the way to get along with five-star hotels and takeaway food '.
If you're not dedicated yet and have the ability to go to the bar, then Ying and I have to go down to the Red Bar on the 14th floor. It's so abrupt, even a TV drama wouldn't dare to act like this! Sure? Ying and I are very certain! This really surprised a group of Wang, Ping, Ting, and Lan who ordered takeout together.
At the Red Bar, it was already 21:40 at night. Apart from the waiter, there were only three or four customers, including Ying and me. When asked about Ying, we had beer. We had a Heineken in hand, and the waiter filled the glass accordingly.
We were indoors, randomly choosing a position next to the window. Ying said she had never been to a bar before, and I occasionally did it. This was a place to relax and listen. There seemed to be many topics, but only one or two of them could be heard and remembered clearly. The family elders of the Seven Trigrams and Eight Trigrams were forgotten, and the children and daughters who fed back and licked the calf vaguely remembered, but this matter was related to privacy and not included in the text.
It seems that Heineken ordered another one, and the two drank separately. The bill was settled at 23:00, and Ying settled it on the room card.
On Wednesday, October 5th, Ping and I woke up naturally, finished grooming, and at 7:30, I posted a thank-you message on our family's WeChat circle:
Any passionate journey, seeing, hearing, thinking, feeling, seeing, and reaching is a soft extension and unrestrained indulgence of oneself, as long as it is not too forceful and takes into account each other's differences and similarities. Thoughts can run wild, but inner peace is like a mirror. Thank you to all the companions on this trip, and even more grateful to the initiator of this trip. Who is the initiator's name? Our wang, yes!
8: At 00, our buffet breakfast began. This time, we didn't split tables, we didn't have separate seats. The whole family had six buckets and sat around a large dining table. This was a highly ceremonial breakfast family banquet. Each of us felt the tight bond and care from our family, like a Cancer. This was affinity and cohesion. We shared joys and sorrows together, and we managed our own home well. This home is the foundation of our emotions.
After breakfast, we are free to move around and are expected to check out at 12:00. Today, our focus is on visiting the first place on the Pujiang River.
The Head of Pujiang River
12: At 00, we checked out on time, set up the route, and set up a fleet of three cars to depart towards the head of Pujiang, a recently popular tourist attraction in Songjiang. The Songjiang area of Shanghai, known as the root of ancient civilization in Shanghai, is also a geographical depression. Here, rivers crisscross and lakes are scattered. We took the Chenhua Road, Kungang Road, Songzheng Road, Sanxin Road, Minta Road, and Yingyi Road along the way, driving for 45 minutes. After a slight detour, we stopped at a rural alley and left our phone number. It is also about a 20 minute walk from the head of the Pujiang River.
Knowledge tip: In Shihudang Town, about ten kilometers away from Xiaokunshan Town, there is a scenic spot, the head of the Pujiang River, which is a national 3A level scenic spot. Xietang, Yuanxie Jing, and Hengliao Jing are the three major tributaries of the upper reaches of the Huangpu River. Among them, Hengliao Jing, a B-class inland waterway, runs through the entire town and can accommodate 500 ton ships. It runs east to the city center of Shanghai, south to Zhejiang, and north to Suzhou and Wuxi. There are two theories about the source of the Huangpu River: one is at an altitude of 1350 meters on Longwang Mountain in Anji County, Zhejiang Province; The second is Dianshan Lake in the the Taihu Lake Lake basin. In fact, the main stream of Huangpu River was formed in Songjiang, Shanghai. Two of the three major tributaries, the Yuanxie Jing and Xietang Rivers, winding from the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, converge in Dongxia Village, Shihudang Town, forming a delta, commonly known as a delta ferry, like a giant ship plunging into the center of the river. After the convergence of Yuanxie Jing and Xietang River, it grew into the Hengliao Jing, which is over 300 meters wide and is also known as the Huangpu River. This has become the starting point of the main stream of the Huangpu River, which is zero kilometers away from the Huangpu River and is now known as the head of the Huangpu River.
This hiking journey is crowded with people, and the scenery is not monotonous. In the forest of the natural oxygen bar, there are slow-moving trails and windmills that lead directly to the scenic area, which are made of paper; The climbing wall is mini, even for children. If you walk, the children will be happy, the mothers will be happy, and the families will be happy. In the middle of the road, the horses had to pass by. What was more important was the policemen on the back of the horse. On the side of the horse, the big ass corgi dog. The boss was unwilling and roared at the horse. What's your name? Watermelon! We, who enjoyed eating melons, have clear and full buttocks, big ears that stand out, what a cute watermelon!
On the right side of the offshore Yuanxie Jing, there are ships sailing from south to north all year round. We used our camera to zoom in on the distance to the head of the Pujiang River, which is very familiar and has no sense of unfamiliarity.
With ease, the buildings appearing in the camera, in the foreground, are Shu Liuliu Yunta, also known as Fenshui Dragon King Temple, and Chunshen Hall. Looking back, it is the Xuanxingjing Bridge that spans across Yuanxiejing.
After passing the memorial archway of the first streamer of the Pujiang River, we officially entered the scenic spot. On both sides of the path, there are stone sculptures of ancient water control talents. I remember that Qian Qian Liu, Ren Renfa, Hai Rui, and Lin Zexu are rich.
A fork in the road connects the flower path and the plank path, and we are a bit hesitant, but the overall goal is still to clear the Flowing Tower and Chunshen Hall.
While walking, a long convoy of vehicles took a shortcut and parked at Chunshentang. It is said that the leader was conducting research and inspection along the way, and is currently on duty at the head of Pujiang.
Chunshen Hall, as the name suggests, is a memorial to Lord Chunshen Huang Xie. The plaque "Chunshen Hall" is located in the center, and the left and right lintels are inscribed with the words "Yongzhi Chulan" and "Cheng'en Haobo" respectively. As the most magnificent building on the Pujiang River, what we see is completely in the style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The architectural form is a single eaved pavilion roof with five ridges and four slopes, and the main ridge is extremely short, decorated with kisses on both sides. The roof of the palace is the highest level standard of Chinese architecture, only used for the royal and Confucian mansions. Chunshen Jun was a vassal of the King of Chu until his death, and the King of Chu was only a viscount granted by the Zhou royal family. Chunshen Jun's ability to enjoy the hospitality of the main hall at the top of the palace was clearly an act of usurpation, which could only exist in chaotic times of declining etiquette and music. Perhaps contemporary people, without the restrictions of standardized levels, are accustomed to unconventional operations. However, since it is a high imitation of fake and real, and the enshrined figures are ancient famous figures, we believe that the head of Pujiang is a bit excessive.
The interior of Chunshen Hall is a water culture exhibition hall, which tells the story of Shanghai's ancestors who drew, managed, and chose water to live, with a focus on showcasing the deeds of Chunshen Jun in dredging the Huangpu River. Large scale Huangxie Water Control Woodcarving, located in the center of the exhibition hall, with a left couplet and a right couplet: Knot of Peach Blossoms Regardless of Age, Morning Qi is Flat and Connected with Zhenze Clouds. Other listed items include restored Han Dynasty water wells, Tang Dynasty polder fields, Song Dynasty ancient ships, Yuan Dynasty water gates, and Qing Dynasty city scenery.
The Shuliuyun Pagoda stands at the forefront of the Sanjiao Ferry at the head of the Pujiang River. In addition to offering sacrifices to the Dragon King, the most important thing is the brightest light in the night, indicating the direction of navigation for ships heading north and south. Wang gestured for a group photo, with Lan, who was extremely fond of feathers, leading the way at the forefront. Who would have thought that the autumn glow is full of sorrow, and the misty waves of the forest and wild scenery are leisurely? Today is the day when the four seas are home, and the old fortress is desolate with reeds and reeds in autumn. Youth is strong, we are strong!
The whole family is gathered, the sound of eggplants stops, and nearby tourists help take photos.
There are two mother rivers in Shanghai, one is Su River, and the other is Pujiang River. Once we stood at the head of Garden Bridge of Shanghai. When we looked at the intersection of Su River and Pujiang River at this time and here, we could not help but feel the ups and downs in our hearts. On the one hand, we lament the passing of time, and on the other hand, we look forward to the grandeur of the great rivers and oceans.
Geographically speaking, the Su River has a longer body, and its name after confluence should follow the Su River. This should have only existed before the Ming Dynasty. After the Ming Dynasty, the Pujiang River, as a tributary, suddenly grew and became the main stream. With just one character difference, it quickly became the top stream, and the flow played the greatest role. This seems to be an arrangement from the heavens. The Su River only connects Shanghai's past, while the Pujiang River, which is the star of flow, anchors Shanghai's future.
History has had a great collision here, with the world trend surging forward. Those who follow it will prosper, while those who go against it will perish. The ancient empire's great ship is overwhelmed, and it has been defeated and reborn as a great nation. From then on, we have braved the wind and waves, ushering in a new era of China.
Many daydreams happen in an instant, and many inspirations appear in front of the head of Pujiang. Let us witness the witness of the ongoing growth of Pujiang, the progress of Shanghai, and the development of China.
Go back, along the side of the sloping pond, I joked with Lan: You live at the head of the Pujiang River, and you live at the tail of the Pujiang River. The poetry made Lan retort: opposing counterfeits and insisting on originality.
In the future, it's time to relax and take a break. This place hasn't reached Shenyuan Lake yet. In front of me, willows are leaning against the green pool water, and the Anlong Stone Bridge arches and twists, forcefully transforming it into a north-south lake.
Ting's phone rang, and I wanted to hold it down, but the sound kept ringing. It was a car transfer call, and Ting had to rush to handle it first. Wang had to wait for Ying and Lan, who were lagging behind. Our trip came to an end at the beginning of Pujiang, with a slight flaw, but it was a perfect ending!
