In April, in the world, at the beginning of April in the Gregorian calendar, I came to Yangzhou, which I have been longing for a long time. I really saw and experienced it. So far, the most beautiful beautiful scenery I have seen has also reached the beautiful Yangzhou gardens.
In fact, I didn't want to write travel notes because I wanted to be lazy. But after chatting with my friends, I felt that writing travel notes can also exercise my mind. Ah, in order to make myself stupid, I'd better hit the keyboard. In the process of writing travel notes, I looked through the photos again and checked the Internet again. I felt that I was reminiscing about visiting again and felt very happy.
This time, I want to change the writing method instead of writing a running account, and summarize it from the three main aspects of travel, food, and feelings.
1. Tour (in order of tour)
1. He Yuan. A typical example of Yangzhou's residential garden, the first garden in the late Qing Dynasty, also known as "Jixiao Villa", is the back garden of He Zhiyu's residence. main feature
1) 1500-meter complex corridor. Walking on the second-floor corridor and admiring the ancient trees and water-heart pavilions in front of the century-old Jade Embroidery Building, it gives full play to the beauty of Chinese garden art and the beauty of extending in all directions. It is known as the prototype of China's overpass. The corridors, commonly known as the Strangers by Yangzhou people, are really an all-round three-dimensional landscape
2) The isolated copy of stone waves stacked with stones. The existing lake stone rockery basically maintains its original appearance. The mountain starts from the east and winds to the northwest corner. The main peak contains a stone chamber (not open now). The "moon in the water" and the western mountain walls reflected in the "flowers in the mirror" are cleverly conceived and amazing.
3) Mounted rockery, with slippery steps next to the mountain, connected to the study on the second floor, implying that "Book Mountain has frequent roads as a path."
The He family attaches great importance to the education of their children and has left a family tradition of emphasizing learning and teaching, and inheriting poetry and etiquette. What impressed me most is
1] The two sons of He Zhi's second son, He Shenghuan, brothers Shizhen and Shimei, studied abroad to obtain doctoral degrees after graduating from college, and founded Chizhi University in Shanghai in 1924.
2] Wang Chengshu, a female hero in the Chinese scientific community, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, an engineering physicist, the academic founder of my country's nuclear isotope separation science, and a female hero who made outstanding contributions to the explosion of the first atomic bomb, is the owner of He Garden. great-granddaughter.
3] Another scientific elite is He Zuoxiu, a physicist and academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
4] There is also a descendant of the He family who used to be a doctor in a hospital in Shanghai. I am so sorry, but I have forgotten his name.
5] There are also many descendants of the He family who are also well-known figures who have made outstanding contributions in their own fields,
Therefore, the historical culture and family culture contained in this garden are also worth experiencing by each of us.
4) The building of Xichun Hall, which dates back more than 400 years, is purely Chinese-style and is a place where the host receives guests. It is difficult to see large pieces of glass that are rare in house buildings in the Qing Dynasty, but large fans can be used here. Its economic strength quite amazes us.
5) He family motto. It is not like the common family precepts of a few words that we have, which have as many as eleven, and each one is more than 100 words. It clarifies the methods and principles of doing things in great detail and has a very strong operability. Therefore, He's family precepts have been officially listed on the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and have become an important reference for the code of conduct for leading cadres in the new era. Because it was displayed in the He's ancestral hall, I didn't take pictures. I once wanted to ask at the tourist service center if they were for sale. Because the entrance and exit were separate, I later forgot about it!
2. Geyuan, a private garden of Yangzhou salt merchants 'residence in the Qing Dynasty. In the 23rd year of Jiaqing (1818 AD), Huang Zhiyun, the chief salt merchant of Lianghuai River, created the Geyuan on the former site of Shouzhi Garden in the Ming Dynasty. The demolition cost was 1.8 billion yuan. It was built since the owner of the park was 28 years old and took 20 years. In the garden, 1/3 of the bamboo houses, 1/3 of the stone houses, and 1/3 of the living houses. It is famous for planting green bamboos everywhere, and it is famous for its rockery in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
1)There are also several types of bamboo, filial piety bamboo (clusters), filial piety bamboo with flowers (It is a variety of filial piety bamboo. It is clustered, with new stalks light red and old stalks golden yellow, with irregular green vertical stripes, like jasper among gold;) Bamboo with middle variation, bamboo with middle variation, jade bamboo with gold (The pole is upright, bright yellow, with green vertical stripes, and the internodes are cylindrical) Tortoise shell bamboo (the knots of the bamboo pole are like turtle shell and dragon scales, with uneven shapes, hard and rough. Compared with other graceful and handsome bamboos, it is less fragile and elegant, but more strong and resolute). When I came back to write my travel notes and looked at the photos, I found that there was a sign for the bamboo in the garden. At that time, there were many people, so I followed the tour guide, but I didn't pay attention: (
2)The four-season rockery is named after the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and is composed of bamboo shoots, lake stones, yellowstone, and suitable stones. It integrates the garden rules with landscape painting principles. It is praised by Mr. Chen Congzhou, the master of the garden, as "domestic isolated cases each have distinctive characteristics, and are equipped with plants from different seasons, allowing the garden owner to enjoy the distinctive landscape of the four seasons in this garden, look at the photos, and view the scenery inaccurately.
The Winter Mountain Stone is very characteristic, making people feel that the snow has not yet disappeared. There is also a clever design that there are three plum blossoms in the courtyard, which will bloom in turn in winter, making this small courtyard less lonely in winter and more colorful embellishment.
3)There were originally 5 buildings, but now only 3 buildings are left. The patterns on the tiles on the main courtyards of these three buildings are very distinctive. They are ""+"deer? "," Fu "+" bat "," Shou "+" peach ", this kind of concept is really quite impressive.
3. Slender West Lake has been a scenic spot since the Six Dynasties. A lake garden with "two embankments of flowers and willows all leaning against the water, all the way to the mountains" has been formed during the Kangxi and Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. The beauty of Slender West Lake is mainly in its winding and winding. Compared with Xizi Lake in Hangzhou, it is a graceful young woman who is as plump and beautiful as a slender and beautiful lady. Slender West Lake is characterized by "thinness". The lake surface is sometimes wide and sometimes narrow, with sparse trees on both sides of the river, and the garden buildings are simple and colorful. During the boat ride, the scenery is constantly changing. It is really easy to move forward. Looking back, there is another scene. It is absolutely a person swimming in painting. The words that had been silent in my mind for a long time suddenly burst out like a carp jumping out of the water,"Flowers are red and willows are green, colorful, dazzling, amazing, worthwhile, spring-colored ceiling" What else? I just hate that I don't have ink in my stomach at this time.
I marvel at why the ancients said,"Fireworks fall under Yangzhou in March"? Because Yangzhou is the most beautiful and colorful at this time, as a northern person, I call it "Wang Laolu has entered the Grand View Garden." It's really eye-opening.
In the evening, I entered the park again. There were light shows with different themes at different times and during different time periods in the park. We saw two and they were not bad. In the night, we walked under the white tower. According to legend, in 1784, Emperor Qianlong visited Yangzhou Slender West Lake by boat for the sixth time. When I saw the scenery around Wuting Bridge from the water, I couldn't help but say with regret: "It's a pity that a white tower is missing, otherwise it would look very similar to the spring shade of Qiongdao in the North Sea." The speaker was indifferent to the listener, and the wealthy Yangzhou salt merchants immediately spent 100,000 taels of silver to buy a pattern of the Beihai White Pagoda with the eunuch. That night, they built a white pagoda with white salt bags. This is the story of "building a tower overnight" that has been passed down in Yangzhou to this day. (No wonder we saw the white pagoda when we visited the park during the day, and we thought of the white pagoda in the Beihai.) Different from the thick and steady white pagoda in the Beihai, the white pagoda is well-proportioned and stands in jade pavilions. It is in harmony with the Wuting Bridge around you
4. Daming Temple, not far from the north gate of Slender West Lake, is Daming Temple. It was first built during the Ming Dynasty of Emperor Xiaowu of the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties (457-464) and got its name. Over the past 1500 years, the name of the temple has changed many times. In 1980, in order to welcome Master Jianzhen's return to China to tour the exhibition, it was renamed "Daming Temple". On the west side of the main hall is the famous Pingshan Hall, which was built when Ouyang Xiu, a great scholar of the Northern Song Dynasty, was appointed prefect of Yangzhou. The flowers and trees in front of the hall are lush, and the courtyard is quiet. Looking across the railing and overlooking the mountains in the south of the Yangtze River, just in line with the line of sight."From the distant mountains, we are level with this hall", so it is called "Pingshan Hall". What attracts us in Daming Temple is that Jianzhen was the abbot of Daming Temple before he traveled east to Japan. Starting from the first year of Tianbao of the Tang Dynasty (742), it has lasted for more than ten years and experienced hardships until the successful sixth eastward crossing. It introduced my country's Buddhism, medicine, language and literature, architecture, sculpture, calligraphy, printing, etc. to Japan, contributing to the development of China and Japan. Cultural exchanges between China and Japan have made important contributions. 2) Qiling Spirit Tower: In the first year of Renshou in the Sui Dynasty (601), Emperor Yang Jian issued an edict to celebrate his birthday and build 30 towers across the country to support Buddha bones. The temple built a "Qiling Spirit Tower", which was nine-story tall and magnificent. It was praised as "the most powerful and unique in China", so the temple was also called "Qiling Temple". The Qiling Tower has been destroyed and rebuilt several times. The one we see now was drilled and rebuilt on August 27, 1993. Climbing the tower can see the whole picture of Yangzhou. It is worth visiting.
Due to time, I couldn't go to the Cheng Jianzhen Memorial Hall, which found another good reason to go to Yangzhou next time: )
5. Hanling Garden: Also known as the Han Guangling King Tomb Museum, it is the No. 1 Western Han Dynasty tomb excavated in Shenju Mountain, Gaoyou Huxi New District, Gaoyou City in 1979. The area of wood and purple is 18 times larger than that of the Han tomb in Mawangdui, Hunan Province. It represents the highest ceremonial funeral in ancient times,"Yellow Intestinal Pieces"(although it was the King of Guangling, it was the scale of the emperor's burial system) and fragments of gold strands and jade clothes were unearthed. Preliminary research has been made that the owner of the tomb is the tomb of Liu Xu, King of Guangling of the Western Han Dynasty, and his wife buried in the same tomb in a different cave. Liu Xu, the fourth son of Emperor Wu Liu Che, was tall and physically strong. He liked to play and was able to lift a tripod. He fought with bears, wild boars and other wild beasts with his bare hands. There was no law in his behavior and he ultimately failed to become the heir to the throne. During the reign of Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xu covet the throne and made witches curse him. When Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne, Liu Xu resumed a private letter with Liu Yanshou, the king of Chu. In the fourth year of Wufeng (54 years ago), Liu Xu committed suicide due to cursing Emperor Xuan and abolished the fief. It is said that he lived to the age of 79?
Unearthed in the tomb is a "yellow sausage inscription" made of golden nanmu, which represents higher-level etiquette in the Han Dynasty. The yellow sausage here is made of a 90-cm long cube of golden nanmu with a slanting length of 70-80 cm on the bottom. Make a hole in the middle and put in the yellow-heart cypress. After more than 2000 years, the cypress has rotted. But we can also see that "yellow sausage" is cypress with yellow heart;"title" refers to the header, that is, the end of the wood; and "chi" is a structure formed by integrating and piecing together points inward, that is, using wood instead of bricks and placed on the periphery of the coffin. It is an important part of the emperor's tomb, along with the jade clothes, the coffin palace, the toilet room, and the outer coffin, while other relatives of the emperor and senior officials and ministers can only enjoy it after special gifts from the emperor. The tenon and tenon process is an extremely exquisite invention. This method of connecting members makes the traditional Chinese wooden structure a special flexible structure that transcends contemporary architectural bent frames, frames or rigid frames. It not only can withstand large loads, but also allows it to produce a certain amount of deformation, and under earthquake load, the deformation offsets a certain amount of seismic energy and reduces the seismic response of the structure. The size of each wooden component in the tomb of Liu Xu and his wife is different. The grooves and grooves on all sides are arranged in an orderly manner. Some have as many as 15 grooves and grooves on one side. After splicing, the gaps are tight and even the thinnest blade cannot be inserted. It is really amazing. The questions are closely linked and stacked layer upon layer. It is firm and fine, like a Rubik's Cube. If you place it incorrectly, you cannot recover it. The structure of the falcons and masts is very particular. The entire wooden coffin is not connected by a single nail, but is connected by the falcons and masts, reflecting the craftsmanship of the Han Dynasty. So far, among the more than ten tombs of the same type that have appeared in the country, the tomb of King Liu Xu and his wife of Guangling of the Han Dynasty is the largest in scale, the most complex in structure, the most sophisticated in materials, the most well-made and the most completely preserved "yellow intestines" type wooden coffin tomb (ceiling level)
What impressed me the most about the unearthed cultural relics, in addition to the fragments of gold strands and jade clothes, bathing clogs and complete sets of bathing sets, and three toothless wooden figurines of old men with grinning teeth, are national first-class cultural relics-the Western Han Dynasty·---Lianmu ground copper wheels, two objects used to promote coffins and coffins, and the other is in the Nanjing Museum. Although each has only three wheels, it can withstand a coffin weighing 1000KG or 2000KG.
When it was discovered and excavated in 1979, the tomb had been stolen, so not many cultural relics remained. The tomb raiders made holes in the top of the tomb very accurately and directly hit the coffin board. It can be seen that the tomb raiders were very sophisticated. What is regrettable is that the tomb raiders also left two large sections of simple wood from when they were lowered into the tomb. The shapes of sections were cut out with an axe, which can be used as ladders. These two sections of wood have been in the tomb for thousands of years, and now they have become cultural relics. Oh, it seems to be nanmu as well.
Before going there, I made a guide and took a rough look at what the tomb looked like from the pictures. After going to the scene and watching it on the spot, I was still shocked. I didn't expect the size of the yellow sausage question to be so huge. (The photo really can't show it.) On the outer circle of the coffin, it's similar to a functional area. There is an area where a chef was also buried. It can be seen how much the owner at that time loved eating.
6. Zhenjiang--Jinshan Temple was named "Zexin Temple" in the Tang Dynasty,"Longyou Temple" during the Zhenzong period of the Northern Song Dynasty, and "Jiangtian Temple" during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty 。It was built during the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It is a famous Zen temple in China. Jinshan Temple in the folklore "The Legend of the White Snake" refers to it. It is listed as one of the four famous temples in China, along with Putuo Temple, Wenshu Temple and Daming Temple. In the Tang Dynasty, there was a Zen master named Fahai who opened the mountain to gain gold and rebuilt the ancient temple, so he changed its name to Jinshan Temple. The architectural pattern of Jinshan Temple breaks the architectural tradition of most temples in China facing north to south and divided into three roads. Instead, it sits on the mountain, with the gate opening west and facing the Yangtze River.
1) The Daxiong Hall was destroyed in a fire in 1948. The rebuilt Daxiong Hall in 1990 not only maintains the original architectural characteristics, but you can see the dragon dragon on the pillars here, and there are also nine dragons behind the Third Buddha.
2) Cishou Tower is about 36 meters high and has a brick-and-wood structure with seven levels and eight sides. It stands on multiple towers and temples and is the symbol of Jinshan. The earliest Cishou Pagoda was built during the Qi and Liang period of the Southern Dynasties. There were originally two towers, with the north and south facing each other, and later collapsed. It was restored during the Yuanfu period of Song Zhezong (1098 - 1100) and was rebuilt into an octagonal seven-story tower. In the third year of Longqing of the Ming Dynasty (1569), Zen Master Liao rebuilt it; today's Cishou Tower was built in the 26th year of Guangxu (1900).
3) The ancient Fahai Cave, also known as Fahai Cave and Peigong Cave, is located on the cliff on the lower west side of Cishou Tower. It is said that it was the place where Monk Fahai, the founder of Jinshan Temple, went to Jinshan to cultivate hard. There is now a statue of Fahai in the cave, and the horizontal line of the entrance is "Ancient Fahai Cave"

In the third year of Longqing of the Ming Dynasty (1569), Zen Master Liao rebuilt it; today's Cishou Tower was built in the 26th year of Guangxu (1900).
7. Zhenjiang Museum. The exhibitions inside are special exhibitions, such as gold and silver ware exhibitions, ceramics exhibitions, etc. I spent 20 tickets to buy the exhibition at the former site of the British Consulate and gave a patriotic education. In 1858, the Sino-British Treaty of Tianjin established that Zhenjiang would be opened to the outside world as a trading port. In 1861, the British Concession in Zhenjiang was officially established. In the same year, a consular office, warehouse and terminal were established. After that, it directly affected Zhenjiang for nearly 70 years, during which conflicts, struggles and compromises were rife. Until March 24, 1927, Zhenjiang commercial leader Lu Xiaobo led a business group to arm and, with the support of the Zhenjiang people, took over the British Concession.
Zhenjiang City is a famous national historical and cultural city. It was called "Zhufang" in the Spring and Autumn Period,"Guyang" in the Warring States Period,"Dantu" in the Qin Dynasty, and "Jingkou" in the Three Kingdoms. The Southern Song Dynasty established "South Xuzhou" in Jingkou, and changed to "Runzhou" after the unification of the Sui Dynasty. Zhenjiang has been named from the Northern Song Dynasty to the present. During the Republic of China, it was the capital of Jiangsu Province and the only intersection of the Yangtze River and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. With the development of land transportation, water transportation gradually declined and disappeared, making this famous city with a long history much inferior to Yangzhou and Nanjing. It is amazing, the changes of the times.
8. Xijindu Ancient Street. Xijindu carries more than 1300 years of historical relics since the Tang Dynasty. It is not only called a "living history", but also a historical and cultural expo area in Zhenjiang.
1) A glance at the thousand-year-old scenic spot, from the Three Kingdoms Period to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, a short section of road in different dynasties in China. (Because of the rain, it's not easy to shoot)
2) The Ancient Pagoda of Crossing the Street, also known as the Zhaoguan Stone Pagoda, was built in 1311 from the Yuan Dynasty to the fourth year of the University of China. The lower half of the tower is built with block stones to form four stone pillars, and the top is covered with blocks to form a frame-shaped pedestal. The reason for this design is mainly because of its special location. Xijin Ancient Tower actually lies horizontally in the middle of the small street. Therefore, it is also called a street crossing tower. The tower is dedicated to gods, and people can pass under the tower. This design is really too practical.
3) It happened to be drizzling on the day I went, and I was walking on the wet, thousand-year-old street. I thought about how leisurely the ancients walked on this street, or were they in a hurry?
9. Zhenjiang-Beigu Mountain is one of the three scenic spots in Zhenjiang (the other two are Jinshan (Sibao Mountain) and Jiaoshan (Shanbao Temple). Beigu Mountain is named Beigu Mountain because it is adjacent to the Yangtze River in the north and has a dangerous and solid situation. Emperor Wu of the Liang Dynasty once wrote the book "The Most Mountain in the World" to praise its success. It has the best spot in Zhenjiang City, and you can have a full view of Zhenjiang by climbing it together. During the Three Kingdoms period, the story of "Liu Bei from Ganlu Temple Recruiting a Marriage" occurred in Ganlu Temple on Beigu Mountain. We visited together the ruins where Liu Bei recruited for marriage. 1) Stone carvings of "The No. 1 Mountain in the World": It is said that during the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Bei came to Wu to recruit for marriage. Sun Quan accompanied Liu Bei to watch the river scenery after the banquet. Liu Bei saw Beigu Mountain standing on the riverside and stretching east to the east. It was endless and majestic. He couldn't help but praise: "Beigu Mountain is really the No. 1 Mountain in the world!" Later, during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, when Emperor Wu of the Liang Dynasty climbed Beigu Mountain, he saw that the scenery of Beigu Mountain was extremely spectacular. He wrote the six big characters "The No. 1 Mountain in the World" with great enthusiasm and left them on the mountain, but unfortunately there was no way to find them. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Wu Ju, governor of Runzhou (Zhenjiang) and famous calligrapher, rewrote these six characters. During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, Zhenjiang Prefecture sentenced Cheng Kangzhuang to copy Le Shi. From then on, Beigu Mountain has been officially known as the "largest country in the world". There is Ganlu Temple on the top of the northern peak of Beigu Mountain.
2) Ganlu Temple was built during the Ganlu Period of Eastern Wu (265-266), hence the name "Ganlu Temple". The temple inscription is Zhang Fei's own handwriting. In order to commemorate Zhenjiang's use as the capital of Wu so that people would never forget the historical facts of the confrontation of the Three Kingdoms, he moved the historical sites of the alliance between Liu and Sun during the Three Kingdoms period, the legends and relics of the marriage between Sun and Liu, to the mountain. From then on, Beigu Mountain has become a famous historical attraction in my country.
3) Legend has it that after Sun and Liu were married during the Three Kingdoms, his wife Sun followed Liu Bei to Jingzhou, but was deceived by Sun Quan and forcibly stayed in Jiangdong. The alliance between Sun and Liu broke down, the Yiling War, and Liu Bei was defeated. His wife Sun heard the rumor that Liu Bei died of illness in Baidi City. She was so sad that she climbed this pavilion, set up a memorial ceremony to watch the west, and then threw herself into the river. Therefore, the pavilion is also known as the "River Sacrifice Pavilion".
4) The ancient name is "Beigu Building", also known as "Chunqiu Building","Xiangson-in-law Building", and "Dressing Building". It is one of the "Three Famous Buildings of the Yangtze River" in ancient times, and is equally famous as the "Yueyang Tower" on the shores of Dongting Lake and the "Yellow Crane Tower" in Wuhan City. They are called the "Xiangson-in-law Building" and the "dressing building", which is related to the legend of Liu Bei's marriage recruitment from Wu. Old Qiao Guo came to urge Quan's mother Wu Guoda to go to the Duojing Building of Ganlu Temple to marry her husband. In fact, Liu Bei's recruitment to meet Sun Shangxiang in the Duojing Building was added by later generations based on the story of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Now you can have a panoramic view of Zhenjiang by climbing the Beigu Tower. Especially in the north, you can feel the tranquility and majesty of the Yangtze River in this bend.
2. Diet:
Yangzhou is well-known for its Sanchun: Fuchun, Yechun, and Gonghe Chun. There is also a store called "Jiangjiaqiao" with the keyword, which is also a frequent visit by local people. After comparing, we felt that the price of Gonghe Spring was the most people-friendly, especially the shrimp seed wonton. There is a big bowl of 18 pieces, which costs 8 yuan. The taste is really delicious. I am very picky about pork and have no opinion on it at all! Her family's bean-skinned buns and pine nuts and glutinous rice buns are also very delicious. They are not greasy at all. They taste very good. Next time we go on a trip, we will eat them!
Yao meat,(As for its pronunciation, whether it is shaking or Xiao, the three of us also discussed it.) Later, I learned that the locals called it "Xiao Rou". Although there is only one sound for it in the dictionary, I think it should be based on the sound that the locals call it. It is said that this meat is a characteristic of Zhenjiang, but we had already tasted it in Yangzhou first and later tasted it in Zhenjiang. In terms of taste, we couldn't tell the difference, and in terms of appearance, we couldn't see any difference. Ah, by the way, I can't tell that it's different from Beijing's crystal pork knuckle. If you have the opportunity, buy some crystal pork knuckles in Beijing and eat them again.
Dried crab roe shredded, well, the tofu skin inside is a little hard. The price is 35, which is relatively expensive, so Gonghe Chun's is not recommended. Later, I tried the dried crab roe shredded silk at the Yangzhou Banquet. The tofu skin is very good, tastes good, and it is perfect for lightning protection.
When you come to Yangzhou, lion's head is a must-have. First of all, we tried the Shizi Lou's braised lion head, which is the big one with soy sauce color. It has a very strong visual impact. According to the introduction, it is 600g and it tastes good. The lion's head at the Yangzhou banquet is white, with a small piece of cabbage placed on it, which tastes soft and good. The two families are evenly divided. If we score them, I will give them a score of 4.9 out of 5 (another 0... 1 point, because I am afraid that their families will be proud: ))
Crystal shrimp, from Lion House, really looks like pink crystal. The color is still good. That's right, it's a little small, and it's a little shrimp that all three of us expected. The taste is quite rich.
Wensi Tofu Soup was also tasted at Zi Shizi Lou. It was served at one end. Wow, it was very eye-catching. Being able to cut tofu into such thin threads made us sincerely admire the chef's superb craftsmanship. Taste it-well, the taste is okay.
Salted goose, the taste is average. I feel that the local people like eating goose meat very much. VS Nanjing people eat duck meat.
Smoked fish tastes sweet, and the sweet and sour juice is mainly concentrated on the surface of the smoked fish. Student Li prefers this dish.
Let's focus on Yangzhou fried rice here. In Beijing, I ordered this rice in probably three restaurants. Later, I felt that the rice was very hard and I didn't like this dish more and more. So when I first arrived in Yangzhou, I really didn't want to order it. Later, because Xiao Zhao's classmate recommended this dish from Shizi Lou, we still ate Yangzhou fried rice locally. After eating it, alas, I was still a little disappointed and thought the rice was too hard. Experience before and after made us mistakenly believe that Yangzhou fried rice was so hard. It was not until we ate a few bites of Yangzhou fried rice in Yanli, Yangzhou due to the sharing of tables that we realized that there were soft Yangzhou fried rice too!
On the first day, I accidentally ate Jasmine yogurt from Yangzhou Internet celebrity, which was still 3.5 yuan per cup. This was also the only time I ate it during the tour, and I came across it for sale later, but the price was 5 or 6 yuan, so I really didn't want to buy it again. (It's a pity that I was worried about eating and not taking pictures at that time)
Here, I would also like to thank Xiao Zhao for not only inviting us to eat the above-mentioned Internet celebrity yogurt, but also inviting us to eat ice cream with large bamboo tubes. On the surface of the pen holder,"Yangzhou" is also written. It feels very local in Yangzhou, and I instantly feel like I have eaten a high-quality cold drink.
Later, when I came to Zhenjiang, I found the same ice cream in a large bamboo tube with the words "Zhenjiang" written on the surface... Therefore, it is best to develop tourism products that are found locally, and never be the same!
"Pack water in the morning". Here, I must mention the famous crab roe soup dumplings. Yechun, Gonghe Chun, and Jiangjiaqiao seem to taste the same. In terms of size, forgive me, I didn't taste any difference. As for prices, the cheapest is in Gongchun, and the most expensive is in Zhichun. After eating it 3 times, the taste was not much different, but it was still very fragrant. The only shortcoming was that it was too oily, so I had to choose carefully.
In Zhenjiang's pot lid noodles, I thought there was a pot lid inside when cooking noodles. I remember reading this in some travel notes. However, what we ate was the pot lid taken out after cooking in the morning, so when we ordered the noodles, we didn't see the lid lid! The taste of the noodles is average. It is said that this is a jumping noodle, and it is quite chewy to eat. Classmate Li and I were very surprised why the noodles were delicious even after the lid of the pot was boiled... Alas, consider it a good reason for mistakes.
3. Accommodation: Student Li chose Yangzhou City Yiyuan Hotel. It has a convenient location and good pillows and beds. (Because my neck is not uncomfortable, hehe)
Zhenjiang Shundi Sanhe Hotel, the location is not bad. The pillows are soft, but the combination of the pillows and bed did not affect my sleep for the night, and my neck was not uncomfortable. The hotel is slightly larger, but unfortunately the sink cannot be soundproofed outside, and the bathroom has a glass wall that allows light transmission. These will affect another person's sleep. I understand that classmate Li does not want to find a hotel with a glass bathroom. Because of this, I also had opinions on placing the sink outside the bathroom and felt deeply. Fortunately, our schedules are not much different. No impact. But this design of the hotel is really anti-human. Do people living in the same room have to work and rest the same?
4. Travel: In Yangzhou, electric vehicles speeding across the streets come into view in groups. I definitely didn't use the adjective wrong, it means "speeding". Their speed is really too fast and their density is relatively high. Bicycles that can be seen everywhere on the streets of Beijing are hard to find here. In fact, there are no undulating mountain roads in Yangzhou, which is quite different from Dalian, but people rarely rely on bicycles to travel. We really don't understand it. We mainly rely on buses and taxis (online ride-hailing), as well as the No. 11 route on legs., Walking on the streets of Yangzhou, we were very scared, mainly because the speed of those electric cars was too fast. It is also because the roads on the streets for pedestrians are either too narrow or crowded by electric vehicles. In short, walking is scary. The feeling of travel is very bad.
When you arrive in Zhenjiang, you can see a few shared bicycles, but they are very few, not as many as those in Beijing. We still rely on public transportation, online ride-hailing, and Route 11 to move. Here, we feel that the streets are much wider and there are fewer electric vehicles. We are finally less scared. Ah, it's like people are resting at sunset here. It's past 7 o'clock and there are only the two of us on the street!
5. Leisure and enjoyment Since you come to Yangzhou, you must enjoy the life of the local people-Li's belief in reason. So, at the first stop for leisure and enjoyment, we experienced the "night water wrap"(although we felt it at noon, because there was no queue at that time)-Yangzhou Backwashing Museum (** Store) 198 set meal, the enjoyment process is:
1) Soak first-Soak in hot water,
2) Rub the back again (rub on both sides or on all sides, rub with a towel. It's more gentle, but it's still more like rubbing...),
3) Finally, the water wrap (that is, first take a hot wet towel and apply it to your back. After a while, take a water ladle and scoop hot water and pour it on the wet towel to wrap the skin properly).
After the above process, my God, it is really comfortable-especially in the water wrapping process. (Although I am a little weak due to my own reasons, I still like this way of relaxing and enjoying. It feels that Yangzhou people really know how to enjoy it. (Although I knew that this was an intangible cultural heritage back rubbing museum before I came here, when the taxi driver told us later that this was the ceiling of Yangzhou's back rubbing industry, he still said,"Wow!" The ground was amazed. Surprised, we accidentally touched the ceiling!) Ah, especially point out that when we check out, it's almost past 2 o'clock. Customers entering the store at this time have to wait until 11 o'clock at night!-- Uh-huh. Now think about it, this is the right treatment to come to the ceiling.(We are lucky, to reiterate, we didn't queue up, hehe)
The second stop for leisure and enjoyment was to go to Shuimolan Ting for a special trip to enjoy pedicure. On the basis of the 189 package, I added a pedicure, and the experience was good. (It is said that this store is also among the best in the field of pedicure! Feeling-Yangzhou people will really enjoy +1!
6. Brief summary: In the most beautiful season, I can see the most beautiful scenery, relax, taste delicious food, and have an understanding of life. These are all my gains this time.
In spring in Yangzhou, there are colorful colors waiting for you to appreciate, cleverly conceived gardens waiting for you to taste, delicious shrimp seeds waiting for you to feast on, ceiling-level tombs of the Western Han Dynasty to amaze you, and there are also leaders in the field of back pedicure waiting for you to enjoy!
Zhenjiang, this ancient city, has the mythical story of Xu Xian and Bai Niangzi flooding the golden mountain with water that makes us reminisce. There are the legends of Liu Bei recruiting relatives at the Ganlu Temple and Sun Shangxiang throwing herself into the river at the Jiangting Pavilion that makes us sigh. There are also stories about Xijin Ancient Ferry. Looking at the thousand-year road surface makes us sigh with emotion...
In short, this trip was really worthwhile!
Special thanks to students Xiao Li and Xiao Zhao, as well as all the travelers on the "Next Tour" for their rear support!
Looking forward to my next trip!!!
