It is the first museum in China to display the "Golden Bricks of the Imperial Kiln", designed by renowned architect Liu Jiakun.

The knowledge on the book is not so vivid as the field visit, here is also one of the recommended places for children to study, interesting not boring, but also long knowledge.

Here is the original production of royal kiln gold brick kiln site, covers an area of 38,875 square meters. The west side of the exhibition hall still retains a two-hole conjoined kiln site, which is still firing gold bricks, and the production memory of the gold bricks of the imperial kiln in 2006 has been included in the first batch of national intangible heritage protection list.

The ground in the center of the hall is made of gold bricks, a total of 49 pieces, specially invited professional craftsmen with ancient methods, spent half a month to lay.

Each booth, a dazzling array of equipment demonstration, showing the whole process of the production of a brick, starting from the soil, but also through mud, billet, drying, roasting and other 29 processes, lasting 22 months, nearly 700 days and nights, and finally to succeed.

The whole exhibition hall is paved with soil, close to the origin of the gold bricks. From taking soil to mud, and then making billets, it takes more than 20 processes before and after, lasting more than seven months.

Although it is a museum, the interior structure is integrated with modern design, which attracts many young people to take photos.

A large wooden water tanker stands in the middle, it is through the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal running water tanker, the BRICS completed the space transfer from Suzhou Xiangcheng to Beijing. In order to prevent the bullion from being bumped during transportation, each bullion would be wrapped around the straw rope nine times, which also represented the emperor's ninety-fifth honor.

On both sides of the brick matrix are the places where the gold bricks are used, they are the Forbidden City Hall, the royal altar Temple, the palace Palace, the emperor's tomb, the Taixue Jinjiang and the Regent's House.

This is the hot spot, from the top down, pick up the steps down.

The strawberry garden is contracted by a girl surnamed Lin. The strawberry garden is very large and there are many activities suitable for children.

Digging sweet potatoes is not an easy task, it requires skill and physical strength, and digging your own sweet potatoes is especially delicious.

Not only the children, but also the adults feed the lambs, and it is very rare to experience rural life.

There is also a large meadow in the strawberry garden, where children are playing happily and adults are taking beautiful photos among the flowers.

Taihu Lake wetland is also a free park, here quietly looking at the lake, as if to Erhai Lake.

Suzhou is a slow life of the city, we come here must feel the slow pace, to Taihu Lake to drink coffee is a good choice.

This cafe has a bourgeois atmosphere, not many people, the quiet environment is very like.

It had been cloudy and rainy all day, and at dusk there was a sunset.

How can an unmissable beauty let it slip away

Suzhou food is similar to Shanghai food, so I am used to it. This time, the dishes are all local dishes, which are not normally eaten, and everyone is enjoying it. Yilu Daohua (farmer's stove) dishes are recommended, old tofu, rice fragrant bundled meat, steamed white fish, dried bamboo shoots, whitebait eggs, local chicken soup, farmer's happy dishes to eat is fresh.

Fried eel paste is one of my favorite dishes. It is difficult to make by yourself and requires a lot of hot oil to cook.

One of the three white in Taihu Lake, whitebait must try.

On the first day, I had a noodle crab, not big but very fat, and the next day there were hairy crabs waiting for me. I was looking forward to it.

As the first homestay here, the ink House is decorated in a style I like. Small fresh natural wind, decoration according to the four-star hotel hardware standards to build.

As soon as I entered the door, there were white clouds floating in the sky

I chose a suite on the third floor with a living room where I could take a tea break.

This is the lounge area on the first floor of the hotel

Now the homestays are doing very well, and the hardware and software are also moving closer to the star hotels.

A foodie journey of hairy crabs in Yangcheng Lake, Lotus Island

I always thought that Lotus Island only eat hairy crabs restaurant, it seems that I was wrong.

Take a boat to the island, Lotus Island half-day tour began.

Lotus Island is also a village and many local villagers live here. With the natural resources of hairy crabs in Yangcheng Lake, Lotus Island has been built into a leisure and entertainment resort island.

The sunflower garden on the island is perfect for photos, with beautiful flowers smiling at us.

Yi Yuan is also a place with strong water town customs, water town customs museum, water town marriage customs can go to understand.

Here we understand the mystery of Yangcheng Lake formation, crab catching tools, etc., a more comprehensive understanding of Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs. Now the people who stay on the island to raise crabs are all indigenous people, and there are no cars or motorcycles on the island, and they can only walk or drive a small motor boat.

There are many crab farms on the island, you can choose any one. This season is the best time to eat hairy crabs, and the crabs are at their fattest. Many people prefer female crabs, but I like male crabs because I like crab paste.

Crab is cold, not easy to eat much. Hairy crabs and rice wine is a perfect match, eating two of them at a meal is still ok, after all, hairy crabs can only be eaten one or two months a year, and the food of the farmhouse is as delicious and down-to-earth as the food cooked at home.

Suzhou only some chicken head rice appeared on the table, chicken head rice fried lotus root slices is very refreshing.

The homemade glutinous rice cake in the village is very good

Historical tour of Feng Menglong Village

Feng Menglong Village is located in Huangdai High-tech Zone, originally was an ordinary small village, but such an ordinary village has a great character, he is a great folk literature master in Chinese history - Feng Menglong. In his honor, the village was renamed Feng Menglong Village.

Entering the village, a large piece of powder came into view. This is not the same as the countryside I have been to, it is more of a book and feelings.

Walking into Feng Menglong Memorial Hall and former residence, Deze origin, memory of ancient thought today, there is Feng Menglong's life as an official, for the people, for the deeds.

Feng Menglong Academy with white walls and black tiles, let you understand his past.

The design of the academy is also very novel, not only simple, but also combines modern style design.

This is a delicate village, the scene in the Peach flower source is probably like this.

The sweet scent of flowers fills the air

As the sun went down, the quiet village became more beautiful.

Two days in Feng Menglong Village in the Mingya six zao family dinner, the owner of the farmhouse is particularly warm, the food is very good.

All the dishes were very delicious. Not only I, but also my friends from other cities enjoyed them.

Fried fried shrimps with chicken head, highly recommended, see other table guests also ordered this dish.

We wandered in the village and learned that there was a harvest festival of Chinese farmers here tomorrow, ready to gather together a lively, but also experience the joy of harvest, chose the Spring Lake hotel not far from the village.

The hotel is very large, presumably Feng Menglong Village tourism has done very well.

Growing up in the city, I've never been to a harvest festival. So wake up early and get ready to head to the village for the Suzhou Chinese Farmers Harvest Festival.

Unlike yesterday's quiet village, today's village is particularly lively, with dance teams rehearsing before the performance.

The villagers had already sat down one by one to wait for the opening of the harvest festival

The annual "Autumn Equinox" will hold the Chinese farmers' Harvest Festival, which mobilizes the enthusiasm and initiative of farmers, and enhances the sense of happiness and gain.

There are also villagers' own agricultural commodities to buy, ecological rice, hairy crabs, rose grapes, full of villagers' hard work.

The cute "Dream Dragon King" IP image appeared

This year is the 70th anniversary of the founding of China, after the autumn equinox is the National Day, the harvest is also a gift to the motherland. All parts of the country are at this time to welcome the harvest, the harvest is full. The show is colorful, but also let me open my eyes, the performance is quite good.

The villagers are full of smiles and participate in this festival that is related to them.

Suzhou Pingtan and rock in one, a special kind of music in Feng Menglong village.

Some of the dance teams were spontaneously organized by the villagers, and I saw how they loved the land and the good life.

The fun is not only that, kiwi fruit is also one of the specialties here, personally pick some to take back.

Found a good place, we entered the Feng Menglong farming culture Park.

Feng Menglong Farming Culture Park covers an area of 37,000 square meters. With the theme of "Visiting Feng Menglong Village, entering Feng Menglong's world", it has set up projects such as Sanyan flower garden, water wheel array, Grandma's house, farm fun field, and four hours farming gallery, showing the farming culture and rural life in Feng Menglong's literary works.

Based on the story of Feng Menglong's novel "Selling Oil Lang Monopolizing Huakui", the Selling Oil Lang Oil Workshop is built as a prototype, allowing people to regain nostalgia in a relaxed interaction.

The vegetables in the smart greenhouse can be viewed or purchased. Feng Menglong Village is now the new countryside, it can be a cultural heritage, but also poetic.

The short three-day trip to Suzhou came to an end soon, but the beautiful Xiangcheng has been deeply imprinted in my mind, it is a place worth remembering.
