Spring is here, the flowers are blooming in the community yard, and my heart is also restless. The trip that you want to go is actually very simple. Choose a direction-south, select a few points-Yuantouzhu Cherry Blossom, Hengdian Cinema, Jingdezhen, string them together on the map, and choose the passing point based on the physical strength I can bear while driving. I usually control it within 4 hours. In this way, I made a simple road book, drove my big Buick, took my son, and sang songs all the way south.

Make a simple road book with the theme: Yuantouzhu Cherry Blossom Festival on March 21, shooting in Hanfu in Suzhou, Shaoxing, and Hengdian, Huizhou Rape Flowers, Jingdezhen China.

The fun of free travel is changing. I can adjust my plans at any time depending on my mood. I usually study where to go tomorrow the night before, make strategies for the next day, and reserve attractions on the public account in advance.

First stop: Yangzhou

Maybe he was too excited, and it rained drizzle all the way to Yangzhou.

Stay at the Hampton Inn Yangzhou Slender West Lake, next to Food Day and a small Dongyuan restaurant.

For dinner, we had Yangzhou specialties: boiled dried shredded silk, braised lion head, Yangzhou fried rice, tomato beef noodles, seaweed soup

What a light seaweed soup.

I went downstairs to pick up my things. When I opened the elevator, a robot scared me. It was very curious and said: Will he attack people? My son laughed bitterly and laughed at me: How did it attack you? Get out of your stomach and shoot you? Or does your stomach open and pinch you? Or was there a bomb in his stomach? Or should I use my big belly to support you?... You just kick him away and it's over. Maybe I've watched too many science fiction movies, and playing with robots along the way has become a great pleasure.

It was the cherry blossom season, so I chose Jianzhen Avenue in Yangzhou to enjoy cherry blossoms. I accidentally encountered Yangzhou Lecture Hall and visited Slender West Lake and Heyuan.

Yangzhou where it rained is called Jiangnan

There is a magnificent building at the end of Cherry Blossom Avenue. It is very deserted due to the rain and no one is there. I went to the reception room and asked about it and said it is Jianzhen Library. I can visit it. I have always preferred quiet places, so I took my son into the library yard. This is a Buddhist cultural library, full of Zen, and there is a Buddhist hall in the courtyard.

When we entered the library hall, our shoes were wet because of the rain, so we didn't go in. We chatted with two beautiful staff members and learned that this was the Yangzhou Lecture Hall. There are two lectures in China. There are hundreds of lectures in the north. It is on TV, and the south is the Yangzhou Lecture Hall. There are many masters from all walks of life: Master Xingyun, Mo Yan, Yi Zhongtian, February Yuehe and other celebrities. Free lectures are held here to promote traditional Chinese culture, twice a month. There are free buses to the lecture hall at the train station, and you can listen to the application site on the public account. When I traveled in 21 years, I still looked forward to listening to a lecture by Master Xingyun. When I wrote travel notes in 23 years, Master Xingyun had passed away. This is impermanence.

I picked two books, and my little sister gave me a kraft paper bag. I was very happy.

There are also several scenic spots near Jianzhen Avenue, such as Daming Temple, Tangcheng Ruins, Songjiacheng Sports and Leisure Park, Shugang Xifeng Park, etc. I photographed the Daming Temple Tower in the distance.

The first time my brother served as a soldier in Yangzhou in 1993 and traveled to Slender West Lake with his parents. He had no memory. The second time, when my son was four years old, he went to Yangzhou to camp with his fellow travelers. The Slender West Lake was very beautiful and picturesque. It rained a little this time, so I parked my car on the roadside at the entrance of Yangzhou University, entered the park from Nandaemun, and left the park from Xidaemun. I wanted to ride a shared battery bike, but my son was not 18 years old and couldn't apply. I took a taxi and drove back to the South Gate. A friendly reminder: You must conserve your physical strength during long-distance travel.

This is the west gate of Slender West Lake. My four-year-old son fell in front of the door and scratched his hand. He took photos here.

It rained all the way, and I was holding an umbrella. When I arrived at the ticket office, the rain stopped, the clouds opened and the building was bright. Thank God for making up for my beautiful scenery.

This is the spring willows on Changdi. I love this tender green very much and is full of vitality.

In the distance is the soul of Slender West Lake-Wuting Bridge

This is Diaoyutai. From these round holes, you can take pictures of the White Pagoda and Wuting Bridge in the distance, a masterpiece of landscape art.

See this Fuzhuang from Wuting Bridge, a small island in the water

Breeze blows by, and this copper bell makes a crisp sound. I miss my father a little

On the bright night of the twenty-four bridges, where did the jade man teach to play flute? This is the twenty-four bridges, named after the twenty-four ancient beauties who played flute.

Xichun Terrace

Chairman Mao wrote Du Mu's poems in calligraphy: The green mountains are vaguely and the water is far away, the grass in the south of the Yangtze River has not withered at the end of autumn, and the bright moon at the twenty-fourth bridge. Where can the jade man teach to play the flute?

After coming out of Slender West Lake, it was past 1 o'clock. I was hungry and tired. I was looking for a place to eat and wanted to taste the famous Lion House. Unfortunately, it closed at 1:30. The security guard said that if you walk not far down this street, you will reach He Yuan, where there are many places to eat at the entrance.

The beauty of He Garden is the beauty of gardens. I don't know how to appreciate this kind of stone, rockery, and small pavilion

He Yuan's beauty may require a more elegant person to appreciate, but a rough female man like me has never realized her beauty.

This old barber shop is a bit interesting. The guests are sitting on old-fashioned chairs in the movie "Kung Fu", and a master is shaving his head and is too embarrassed to enter and disturb him.

Let me complain: Yangzhou, a famous tourist city, closed at 1:30 and almost starved to death in Yangzhou. I had to navigate for Grandpa Ken to fill my stomach and leave Yangzhou without hesitation.

I like to visit the service area, the vegetable market, and the local supermarket. This service area is particularly good and sells a wide variety of wines.

Arrive in Wuxi in the evening and stay at Home Inn Boutique.

The hotel's shoe dryer is very easy to use, especially in Jiangnan when it rains. After returning home, I bought the same model. My son's white shoes cannot be exposed to the sun, and it is great to dry them in cold wind.

Take out the cup I bought and have a cup of tea

Order takeout and finish dinner in the room.

Second stop: Wuxi

When I arrived in Wuxi, I liked this city very much. The ancient canal was on the roadside, and there were still cargo ships passing through the river. It was not so noisy and prosperous.

Huishan Ancient Town is a quiet and beautiful town. Shun once cultivated here. There are Huishan Spring, the first mountain in the south of the Yangtze River, the second spring in the world, the second spring reflecting the moon, Jichang Garden in the Ming Dynasty, Zhou Dunyi's ancestral hall, etc., which makes people nostalgic for going back and forth.

From here, I became fascinated with making Short Video.

In the Ming Dynasty, the two emperors Kangxi and Qianlong visited the garden seven times, which was the Azalea Festival. There is a separate charge here. Tickets are not required for the entire Huishan Ancient Town.

The crabapple in Jiangnan is really beautiful. Do you know, do you know, they should be green, fat, red and thin?

Kissing the flying spring.

Regarding these two springs, the second spring in the world was determined by Lu Yu. It is said that there are four first springs in the world. The inscription of Baotu Spring in Jinan bears the inscription "First Spring", which means the first of the seventy-two springs. Emperor Qianlong went to the south of the Yangtze River and passed by Baotu Spring and replaced the water from the Jade Spring Belt in Beijing with Baotu Spring. There is also a saying that Qianlong sealed the first spring in the world. But there was only this one in the Second Spring. At that time, A Bingla's erhu repertoire had no name. When recording, A Bing named it Erquan Yinyue. Because the Cantonese opera had "Three Tanks Yinyue", it was changed to Erquan Yingyue. In fact, Erquan has a pavilion and cannot reflect the moon. The song does not express the beautiful scenery, but a tragic experience.

Erquan has dried up, and now there is tap water in it. The spring water in the ancient town makes tea. If it costs more, you don't have to drink it.

Although there is no spring water in Erquan now, the water for making tea should be local well water or tap water (it is also groundwater).

There are many famous ancestral halls in the ancient town.

Passing by this Zhou Fuzi Temple, I was confused at first, but when I entered, I realized that it was Zhou Dunyi, the author of "Love Lotus Theory".

Premier Zhou Enlai wrote the inscription of Ailian Hall.

The Chinese Clay Figurine Museum got off work very early, and it was impossible to enter at 4:30. I only took a photo in the lobby. If you want to visit together, try to come to the ancient town in the morning.

Start shopping in the supermarket at night to find food.
