Xiaoxian's daughter's daily life

Hey, friends, let's just say something a little, I'm Kui, one of my favorite names: Sister Kui Kui ~ a little fairy born in the 1995 generation. She now lives in Yangzhou. She likes to climb mountains, read books on rainy days, and likes to eat and drink. I like to appreciate everyone and things that really exist, and of course, I love the travel that everyone expects.

In the past three years, I have been to many places, but I only left photos with memories. From today on, I will share the beauty I have encountered with all my friends who want to travel in the form of words, pictures, music, etc., due to changes in my work, my travel will be updated from time to time, and all my friends are very welcome to share with me the interesting things during your trip.

Of course, not only my story will be included in the tour, but also the dry goods of the scenic spots will be shared. Hurry up and sit on a small bench and listen carefully.

Okay, let's get back to business, this is my first travel book, so let's start with the city where I am now in-Yangzhou.

The reason for coming to the city of Yangzhou is purely the word fried rice. A small rice bucket that loves fried rice is really a unique style. I want to add here, in fact, I spent 38 yuan to eat authentic Yangzhou fried rice. It was full of color, aroma, and flavor, and it was really exquisite. Unfortunately, the students 'living expenses were limited, and I have never eaten it for the second time so far.

At that time, the annual card was 100 yuan to play at all 10 Yangzhou attractions. Now I think about it, it's really great value. But now there are also activities such as joint ticketing, which is also very cost-effective.

When talking about Yangzhou's attractions, such as Slender West Lake, Heyuan, Geyuan, Dongguan Street, Daming Temple, Yangzhou Eight Eccentrics Memorial Hall, Zhuyi Bay, Phoenix Island, Marco Polo Flower World, etc., you must be proud here. You have visited all the attractions, and some of the attractions have been more than once ~

The origin of Slender West Lake

When it comes to Yangzhou, March and April are the charm of Slender West Lake. There are hundreds of flowers in the garden, and there are really an endless stream of guests coming to visit. This is about Slender West Lake. Let me popularize the allusions of Slender West Lake in Yangzhou:

During the Qianlong period, Wang Hang, a poet from Qiantang, Zhejiang Province, came to Baozhou Lake for a tour. He compared it with the West Lake in his hometown and said that if Hangzhou West Lake was the beautiful beauty of the Tang Dynasty, Yang Guifei, then Yangzhou West Lake was the beautiful beauty of the Han Dynasty. Zhao Feiyan, light and slender, one with a myriad of appearance, the other delicate and exquisite.

As a result, poetry became popular and he wrote such a poem,"Ode to the River of Protection": The willow trees continued to pick up the remnants, and the geese 'teeth' red bridges drew pictures. It is also a pot of gold, so it should be called Slender West Lake.

What does this poem mean? The first two sentences praise the beautiful scenery here, while the third sentence reverses the comparison with the West Lake, which is a place that requires money (in ancient times, the West Lake was known as selling gold pots, that is, a place to spend money). The fourth sentence says that this place is not as big as the West Lake, so it ends with the image of "thin".

From then on, Yangzhou West Lake was known as Slender West Lake and became famous all over the world.

Enjoy a relaxing day

The first time I went there was it during the Qingming Festival, which corresponded to the saying,"There was a lot of rain during the Qingming Festival." Although it was rainy season, it couldn't stop the influx of tourists to take a look at the scenery of Slender West Lake.

It didn't rain when I first went there, so I didn't have any fun playing alone. I just enjoyed the beautiful scenery, walked around, and listened to the allusions of Slender West Lake. It was quite pleasant.

The flowers in Slender West Lake are really lovely. The Qingming Festival is a time when flowers bloom, and the album still retains some beautiful pictures that are consciously too beautiful.
