Sanmao is a literary symbol of an era. On the evening of April 19, 2019, we set off for Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province for a trip to Sanmao Culture.


The island is in the sea, fishing boats travel, murals and fishing villages, Putuo Fanyin, and the east pole sunrise. This is the previous impression of Zhoushan, but this time we follow Sanmao's footsteps to find roots and get closer to the inner world of a legendary woman.


Arriving in Hangzhou at 5 a.m., it was still early before the assembly time, so I went to the Dadou Historical District for a tour.



[Hangzhou Dadou Historical District, the ancient fish market and rice market, transformed into a leisure and art street]



This was once the central area of the "Shili Yinhu Villa". It has the famous tax gate Beixin Pass in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the government-run granary Fuyi Warehouse, the famous temple Xiangji Temple, etc. It is an important market, trade and warehousing center in the north of Hangzhou.

This was once the county capital of Renhe County in the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. It still retains a large number of buildings in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. It is one of the historical neighborhoods of the old city that Hangzhou is now displaying to the outside world.

Dadou Road originated in the Song Dynasty and developed into an important market in the north of Hangzhou in the Ming Dynasty. During the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, it was the main entrance for Gongbu to and from the city.

Dadou Road Historical District is born on the basis of "Lake Villa". It is located between Daguan Bridge and Jiangzhang Bridge on the east bank of the canal. It is separated by a canal from the noisy urban area. From north to south, there are Shahe Lane, Renhe Cangbei Lane, Renhe Cangnan Lane, Xiangji Temple Lane and other traditional streets and alleys, which are both market and elegant.

Facing the morning light and breeze, Fulong entered from the archway at the intersection of Dadou Road. History unsealed its old saying box. When Hangzhou's past began to lay out, the noisy world fell silent...

The block is not long and runs north-south. The road is paved with stone slabs, and each stone slab tells a story. The riverside is tall and neat fir trees and low willows. There are some benches and hydrophilic platforms along the coast. An old man sits alone by the riverside. The old man is full of the smell of real fireworks. On the bank is an ancient neighborhood with white walls, black tiles, wooden doors and wooden windows. It is full of ancient flavor. It is one of the representatives of Hangzhou's exquisite and slow life.

Here, it used to be the rice market, fish market, paper market and fruit market in Laodizi Hangzhou. Today, Mishi Lane and Maiyu Bridge have become the names of an era, and after being demolished, they have become antique buildings.


Walking among historical buildings such as Fuyicang, National Factory Silk Reserve Warehouse, and Silk Wharf, it is like walking into a bound book. In a trance, you can still hear the heavy footsteps of dock porters.

The National Factory Silk Reserve Warehouse has a new mission and has been transformed into a five-star Cheverly Hotel. It no longer stores silk and only accepts guests.


There are hundreds of jellyfish lights hanging above the corridor of the hotel, with modern elements embedded in them without any sense of disobedience. Citizens and tourists like to visit them very much.

When you hear the name "Hou Shengjia", you know that it has a great background. When Qianlong went to Jiangnan, he came to Dadou Road many times. Local officials and people welcomed him along the river. This is the place where Qianlong berthed. It consists of water pavilions, archways, corridors, pick-up booths, Qianlong royal pen stone carvings, etc.

Tradition and creativity are surging here. The old Hangzhou dialect is engraved on the wall, with Hangzhou dialects such as "Sazi 'er" and "Mulao Lao" written on the wall. There are explanations in a side note, and every effort is made to protect and promote the unique cultural heritage of old Hangzhou.

Walking in the streets and alleys and listening to the sound of footsteps on the bluestone slab will remind people of its historical storms. Even though the surroundings are changing rapidly, the Grand Canal will always retain its calm style and not compete for it.

Compared with the hustle and bustle of the city, this place is like another world. There are no endless tourists from the West Lake, no pilgrims from Lingyin Temple, and no bustling diners from Hefang Street. Some are just lazy, secretly hiding Hangzhou's thousand-year history and Jiangnan customs.

The open and tidy streets give people a sense of comfort. The area of each snack bar is much larger than that of Hefang Street. There is no need to worry about crowded people. The delicious food of all kinds is fragrant for ten miles, attracting the appetite of people coming and going.

The wind in the old alley never blows slowly, the low walls, the ancient houses, the glory of the year has been worn away by time, and the old things have imprinted the feelings of the people of old Hangzhou.

Walking deep into the alley, all the life of old Hangzhou people remains. Some walk in the alley, and some chat with old friends in teahouses. The days are gentle and amazing.

Meeting was fate. Fulongjun waited for half an hour, but the two flower girls did not see either.

Dadou Road Food Street is the most prosperous section of the "Shili Yinhu Villa" in history. There are restaurants such as cafes, teahouses, Jiangnanyi Restaurant and other restaurants in the neighborhood. It is literary and artistic and full of atmosphere. Every store seems to have a unique temperament.

When you are tired from walking, go in and sit down, have a cup of coffee or sip a cup of Longjing, and empty yourself with a plate of fragrant soft and glutinous tea.


There are many well-known restaurants and time-honored restaurants. You don't need to be nervous about picking one and sitting down. You can also enjoy the scenery while eating.


Handmade shops and flower shops quietly wait for customers and do not solicit customers, retaining the elegant demeanor of a thousand-year-old Jiangnan water town.

"The small ones are hidden in the mountains, and the big ones are hidden in the city." Most of the temples I have seen are in the deep mountains and dense forests, but Xiangji Temple is an exception. The rebuilt Xiangji Temple is located in the busy urban area. The lush forests around the temple have never been seen. The quiet ancient road leading to the meditation room has never been seen. What's more, Xiangji Temple serves the Great Sage Jinnaruo King Bodhisattva, the god of food among the population of Hangzhou-the "Kitchen Servant Bodhisattva". It is the only temple in China that worships the Kitchen King. It is a place where the god of food appears. Every year, the Vegetarian Festival will be staged in the square outside Xiangji Temple as scheduled...

Wang Wei's "Crossing Xiangji Temple" has made many people aware of it: if you don't know Xiangji Temple, you will enter Yunfeng for miles. There is no man's path in ancient trees, but there is a bell in the mountains. The sound of the spring smokes dangerous rocks, and the sun is cold and green pine trees. In the dusk, the empty pond is winding, and the dragon makes poison.

Today's Dadou Road is more inclined to petty bourgeoisie life. Lang Lang's new studio, Lang Lang Hangzhou Art World, is here. Since then, it has brought "the best piano music in the world" to the canal coast. Walking here, it is a high probability that you will meet the world's top music masters.


Take the bus from Hangzhou at 8 o'clock and arrive in Dinghai at 12 o'clock. As a city with one of the best air quality in the country, there is little smog here, only waves, seafood and slightly salty sea breeze.

When staying at Zhoushan New Overseas Chinese Hotel, San Mao once stayed at this hotel.

The hotel is a group of buildings. In addition to the main building, there is also an annex building with a more high-end decoration. This building is called Overseas Chinese Garden.

There is a cafe in the backyard of the hotel. It seems that it is not cheap, so I dare not enter it.

This building is a treasure place for women to make money and a place for men to lose money.

Returning to the hotel from the Zhoushan Hall of Fame, I passed the side door of Zuyin Temple, and I flashed in. Among the more than 10 members of the team, only I and two other people entered. Is it disrespectful to pass by and not enter?

Although it is in the city, it is quiet.

At 2 p.m., I visited the Opium War Ruins Park.


[The tragic battlefield of the past: Dinghai Opium War Ruins Park]


As one of the main battlefields of the First Opium War, Dinghai was once filled with the smoke of war, and many loyal and brave heroes emerged.

The Opium War of aggression against China launched by the British government began in Dinghai. The two Dinghai defense wars played an important role in China's modern history of resisting foreign aggression.

"The blood of 5,000 heroes was shed in those six days. This battle hurt every Chinese heart." This couplet at the entrance of the Zhoushan Opium War Ruins Park records the story of Ge Yunfei, Wang Xipeng and Zheng Guohong, who led more than 5000 soldiers in September 1841, fighting against the British invasion of warships, fighting bloody battles with the enemy for six days and nights, and finally martyred the country. This battle was the longest and most intense and tragic battle against the British invasion in modern history of China.

Several scarred and incomplete red granite stone pillars erected at the gate of the ruins park symbolize the indomitable and unyielding integrity of the Chinese nation.

The mountain peak where the ruins park is located is called Xiaofeng Ridge. It is an ancient battlefield site during the Opium War. It winds up the stone steps of the park. The Opium War Memorial Hall, Sanzhong Temple, Dingyuan Ancient Battery and the Tomb of the Dead Soldiers are all located here. The red smell spreads throughout this mountain, and the entire park looks solemn and solemn.

Not long after climbing the "Martyrs Qi Yang Monument" on Xiaofeng Ridge, I saw rows of black stone tablets standing in the mountain depression, solemnly inlaid on the mountain wall. When closer and closer, you will find that the stele is carved out of granite, and the inscriptions are dotted with gold characters. This is the "Hundred Generals Inscription Monument" of the founding generals. The inscription is strong and powerful, and the words reveal the unique temperament of the soldiers.

Continue to climb the stairs, trees on both sides are prosperous, and the woods in the mountains are well protected.

Qingshan was fortunate to have buried loyal bones. The ancient tombs of anti-British soldiers who died in the war are buried with 11 caves in the Qing army who died heroically in the second defense of Dinghai. Although the tombs have been eroded by more than 150 years of wind and rain, the inscription "Order: Tomb of fallen soldiers" is still very clear.

Continue to climb to the top of the mountain. On top of the mountain is the Memorial Sculpture Square of the Three Commanders. There is a monument in the center of the square, consisting of three 21-meter-high stainless steel swords.

In front of the monument is a statue of the Three Commanders, carved out of red granite, more than 6 meters high, leaning against a sword in the wind, looking firm and looking at Dinghai City, symbolizing the lofty righteousness of defending the country's country to the death.

The Opium War Memorial Hall and Sanzhong Temple were on another hill, and we turned and walked there.

There is an Ao Gu Pavilion on the road, built on the ridge between Xiaofeng Ridge and Zhushan. This pavilion was specially built to praise the national integrity of the martyrs such as the Third Commanders of Dinghai who sacrificed their lives for the country in the Dinghai Defense War.

Come to the Opium War Memorial Hall, which is located on the top of the mountain and faces the East China Sea. The memorial hall displays historical relics, pictures, etc. of the two Dinghai defense wars, inspiring future generations to not forget the national humiliation and work hard.

Behind the memorial hall is Sanzhong Temple, which was built in 1846 under the decree of Emperor Daoguang to commemorate Ge Yunfei, the commander of Dinghai Town, Zheng Guohong, the commander of Chuzhou Town, and Wang Xipeng, the commander of Shouchun Town, who led the army to resist tenaciously and died heroically.

The current Sanzhong Temple was completely relocated from No. 17, Hechang Lane, Dinghai in March 1997. The relocated Sanzhong Temple faces north to south and consists of a front hall, a main hall, east and west wing rooms, etc. On the basis of the original, a culture and history room and a calligraphy and painting room have been added.

Across the front hall, there is a courtyard. In the center of the courtyard, a stone tablet stands on which is engraved with the edict of Emperor Daoguang to reward the three commanders and the fallen soldiers.

Portraits and relics of the Three Commanders are displayed in the literature and history room, and calligraphy and painting works about the First Opium War, the Three Commanders, etc. are displayed in the calligraphy and painting room.

Standing on the top of the mountain, overlooking the vast sea, and bird's eye view of the entire city of Dinghai, the history of humiliation has turned over, and we no longer regard the sea and border as dung.

The focus of this trip-Sanmao's ancestral home root-seeking culture has finally come on stage.



[Walking San Mao did not go far. She came to Dinghai, Zhoushan]



This is Dinghai, the place where Sanmao's soul is lingering.

"Every time I miss you, a grain of sand falls from the sky, forming the Sahara." Everyone is familiar with the story of writer San Mao, but did you know that San Mao's hometown is in Dinghai, Zhoushan City, Zhejiang Province, facing the famous Putuo Mountain and Zhujiajian across the sea?

In 1989, Sanmao embarked on her journey to find roots in Dinghai, Zhoushan. Sanmao is thinking about her hometown, and her hometown will always commemorate Sanmao. A special Sanmao exhibition area has been set up in the Zhoushan Hall of Fame.

As her fans, we watched every exhibit in Sanmao exhibition area in detail in the Hall of Fame. I think every Wenqing has more or less memories of Sanmao in his mind.


San Mao is a wanderer, but not the San Mao in "The Wandering Story of San Mao". This San Mao is a famous Chinese female writer, traveler, and one of the most influential women in China for sixty years. She is not beautiful but tall. A strange woman with long hair draped around her shoulders and travels around the world with books and pens.

This San Mao has nothing to do with San Mao in "The Wandering Story of San Mao". San Mao has the surname Chen and his name is Maoping. However, when she was a child, she found the word Mao difficult to write, so she simply removed the word "Mao" in the middle and called it Chen Ping.

The first comic book Chen Ping read was "The Wandering Story of San Mao". She liked this comic book very much and recognized the comic author Zhang Leping as her godfather, and also took herself the pseudonym "San Mao".

Sanmao has been pursuing all her life. She has left home, walked, wandered, and wrote. She has continued to pursue and improve herself.

The next stop we came to the Sanmao Memorial Hall, which houses Liuyong Cultural Square. As soon as we walked into the memorial hall, we saw Sanmao from various periods: Sanmao who was studying around the world, Sanmao who was in love with Jose, Sanmao who returned to his hometown...

This picture is based on the most classic photos taken by Sanmao when he returned to his hometown of Dinghai. However, the pictures have been shown, and Sanmao is not so beautiful.

This is a unique woman, walking away alone in the vast Sahara Desert.

Climbing to the second floor, there are two theme areas: "The rainy season is no longer coming" and "The story of the Sahara". Most visitors will hold the reins of fake camels here and imagine themselves riding in the desert with San Mao.

Mao Fan was talking about her experience during the visit. Although I didn't listen to Fulong in detail, I could guess from her expression that coming here fulfilled her wish.

After visiting the memorial hall, we went to the Sanmao Book Bar next door, which also sold other books.

There are two layers in the book bar. Each book has its own history and temperature. Every line of words is a footprint of her life. We feel the powerful power that San Mao injected into her words.

Tonight's dinner was served earlier because we had to attend an important event in the evening. We arrived at the "Thousand Island Seafood Food Court at 5 o'clock
"Let's eat.

This is a veritable seafood kingdom, with stalls lined up, fresh seafood placed at the door, white crabs, prawns, octopus, pomfret... all kinds of seafood that can be called by name or not. Boiled or stir-fried, simple fisherman's local method, taste better than hotels. Taking advantage of the last wave of fishing floods at the end of April, coming to Dinghai to eat plum fish and carp is really a kind of enjoyment in life, and you can eat well enough.

The food court has two floors, and we chose the one upstairs, where we can have an unbeatable sea view.

Eat delicious food under the beautiful scenery, don't be too happy.

At 6:30 after dinner, he attended the second "Sanmao Prose Award" award ceremony. The "Sanmao Prose Award" is one of the important literary awards of the Zhejiang Province Writers Association.

Some scenes about Sanmao were produced at the award ceremony, and the guests did not forget to leave a mark here.

The judges carefully selected 13 outstanding works from more than 600 Chinese works around the world, and Jia Pingwa's work won the grand prize.

Ji Xing, host of CCTV's film and television drama channel, came from afar and enthusiastically presided over the award ceremony.

Sanmao's sister Chen Tianxin and younger brother Chen Jie made a special trip to Dinghai, Zhoushan to attend the award ceremony.

On April 21, at 8:30 a.m., we went to Xiaosha Tourist Area. We didn't come to play, we came to work.

Sanmao liked olive trees during his lifetime, so we planted them!

The famous song "Olive Tree" expresses her deep affection for her hometown and also affects the feelings of countless people.

The tree planting site was in the compound of the Xiaosha Subdistrict Office. Ye Xin, vice chairman of the Chinese Writers Association, and the winner of the Essay Award, each planted an olive tree, and I also shoveled a few shovels of soil.

"If there is an afterlife, be a tree and stand forever. There is no sad and happy posture, half is peaceful in the dust, half is flying in the wind; half is in the shade, and half is bathed in the sun." These are what San Mao wrote during his lifetime. Now, everyone is working together to plant a piece of greenery and in this special way, we remember the "little sand girl" of the people in our hometown.

After planting the trees, everyone went to visit Sanmao's ancestral home.

Sanmao's ancestral home is very inconspicuous. In a small alley, the house number is No. 60 Chenjia Village, Xiaosha Street. At that moment, I heard the sound of my own heartbeat.

Even though San Mao traveled thousands of mountains and rivers all her life, she never forgot her hometown Dinghai Xiaosha.


This courtyard was built by her grandfather in 1921 when he returned home from business in Nanjing to get rich. It has five ancestral halls, main houses, and wing rooms, one room in the north and south, and three rooms in the middle are connected. It was also considered a large family at that time.

When 46-year-old San Mao returned to her ancestral home, her old friend had long since passed away, and all kinds of feelings surged into her heart. She wrote down her feelings when she returned to her hometown in "The Interweaving of Sorrows and Joy":"I chose the softest leaf and leaf that I should not touch the most. Face it-my hometown, my roots." When Sanmao left her ancestral home, she took a ladle of well water and put it in a bottle and took it away. She wrote: "From then on, I will no longer be acclimatized to the environment wherever I go."

The ancestral home stood quietly, witnessing Sanmao's happy appearance riding a bicycle on the small road in Xiaosha countryside.

There are many relics and photos of San Mao from various periods on display in the ancestral home. These were sent by her brother. I really didn't expect that I could be so close to San Mao, so close that I could breathe under the same roof as her. Touch the bicycle she once rode.


In the small courtyard, the song "Olive Tree" written by San Mao was played on a loop. Every visitor consciously kept quiet and looked at San Mao's past in the room. I saw the only ornament on San Mao's wedding neck, the old African silver necklace "Blodette", the little porcelain people Adam and Eve that San Mao carefully packed and brought back to Taiwan after Jose's death, the Indian calico collected by San Mao, and the travel bag of San Mao. I saw the photo of the camel skull that "would not be given to anyone even if it was dead"(the authentic product has been moved to the Zhoushan City Museum).

There is a 40-minute video room for "Sanmao's Hometown Journey" in the north wing. It records all Sanmao's activities when he set foot on his native land, worshiping his ancestors, returning to his ancestral home and during his stay in Dinghai. People sat on the bench, watched carefully, missed it, and brought their hearts closer to Sanmao.

Sanmao's greatest achievement in her life is her works. There are various versions of Sanmao's works on display. She has visited 59 countries and regions to study, travel and live, and published 23 works with about 5 million words. Her works such as "The Story of Sahara" were translated into English, French, Japanese, and Spanish. In those years, the "Sanmao fever" became popular around the world.

"If your heart has no place to rest, you will be wandering wherever you go." She lived out herself and left countless stories and words, and her humorous and natural brushstrokes captured countless readers. Her legendary experiences and stories have left an unusual chapter for the world.

Geniuses are all partial subjects. People who are good at Chinese are often not very good at mathematics. This is true for Qiongyao, and so is Sanmao. In the second year of junior high school, the mathematics teacher scolded her in public as a fool and drew two circles around her eyes with a brush. The ink flowed down the eyes of her eyes and into San Mao's mouth. Her fragile and sensitive self-esteem was shattered. From then on, San Mao suffered from severe autism and had to suspend school. By chance, San Mao followed the young painter Gu Fusheng to learn painting. Gu Fusheng was an important figure at the turning point of Sanmao's life. He not only taught Sanmao to paint, but also encouraged her to write, and sent her debut novel to Bai Xianyong's "Modern Literature" for publication, thus guiding Sanmao out of her personal autistic world. Ten months after Sanmao learned painting, Gu Fusheng went to Paris. Before going abroad, he found Sanmao a new teacher, Han Xiangning. Han Xiangning later went to New York and found Sanmao a new teacher, Peng Wanchi. These three teachers are all Chinese artists."They are painters and educators. At the right time, they saved a man who was about to be lost to death."

In 1972, San Mao left for Spain again with emotional injuries and reunited with Jose, a Spaniard who was 8 years younger than her, whom she met six years ago. Jose asked Sanmao: "How much money do you want a husband who makes?" Sanmao: "If you don't like it, you won't marry a multimillionaire; if you like it, you won't marry a billionaire." Jose: "After all, you always want to marry rich people." Sanmao: "There are exceptions." Jose: "What if you follow me?" Sanmao: "Then forget the money as long as you eat enough." Jose: "Do you eat much?" Sanmao: "Not much, not much. You can eat less in the future."

In this way, Sanmao became Jose's wife.

But fate was always unfair to Sanmao. Jose was accidentally killed while conducting underwater engineering operations on the seabed. Sanmao suffered a severe blow. No matter how many works she wrote, she could not alleviate her longing for Jose. In the end, Sanmao committed suicide. The free and uninhibited San Mao had a brilliant dream, and then quietly left, leaving countless stories for future generations to legend.

In Sanmao's ancestral home, tourists have written more than 10 notebooks to Sanmao. People come here to find her story and find poetry and distance from her story.


Those who like Sanmao and Sanmao's works consume a lot of energy in this courtyard, and those who don't like them may walk out of the courtyard in 10 minutes.


The man is gone, and his fragrance will remain forever. Walking out of Sanmao's ancestral home, I looked back for my favorite Sanmao.

Yiyi said goodbye to Sanmao's ancestral home and went to Zhoushan Museum at ten o'clock, where there is a special exhibition commemorating Sanmao.

Before entering the museum, I was attracted by its appearance. The lines were too strong.

This special exhibition area is more standardized and comprehensive, focusing on displaying San Mao's life. It includes San Mao's calligraphy and painting works, original manuscripts of San Mao's works, San Mao's treasure collections, and a large number of personal photos of San Mao in different periods...

Sanmao's most cherished camel skull in his life is collected here. It is a love token given by Jose to Sanmao.

Here, you can read San Mao's classic works from various periods, or you can follow San Mao's footsteps through multimedia. From the European continent to the Sahara Desert, from the Atlantic islands to the Central and South American plateau, people can once again feel San Mao's unique personality charm.

No one would have imagined that Sanmao's journey to find her roots in Dinghai would become her farewell to her hometown. On January 4, 1991, Sanmao ended her life by hanging herself with stockings in the hospital toilet. She was only 48 years old.

Cover the exhibits and don't complain about the loss of life.

People wrote what they wanted to say to San Mao on the green leaves and stuck them on the tree shape on the wall to wish her well in heaven.

There is a desert with a few camels. In the sunset, the back of a man who "walked through the mortal world" disappeared from people's sight.



Our next scenic spot is Nandong Art Valley, which actually doesn't sell tickets.



[In Nandong Art Valley, villagers have turned their lives into poems]



I have heard of Silicon Valley, so what is Art Valley?


Anyone who dares to call Yigu must have something inside.

Nandong Art Valley has a nice name. I have long heard that it is a fairy tale kingdom with beautiful mountains and clear waters. This trip was completely confirmed.

At first glance, the village was amazing. The outer wall of the farmhouse was covered with colorful graffiti, like a dreamy colored kingdom.

Nandong Art Valley is actually just a small mountain village on the island of Ganlan Town, Dinghai District, but don't underestimate it. It is surrounded by mountains and sea, with fresh air, simple folk customs, and island culture everywhere.

Walking through the uneven gravel roads of the small village, the large area of color areas on the farmhouse walls are unobtrusive. It is like walking into an art corridor. The paintings on the walls are different, including local people working in farming, festivals and folk customs, as well as characters in foreign anime, which are very vivid and lovely.

These masterpieces turned out to be the work of teachers and students of the art departments such as the China Academy of Art, Zhejiang University of Technology, Ningbo University and other teachers. They used the walls as painting paper and often came here to paint. Over time, every wall in the village was painted by them. It has become the largest folk mural village in Zhoushan. Don't despise it. The painting is so beautiful, the villagers are satisfied, and the tourists applaud it.

Walking in the village is like traveling in a painting. The village is now full of hats: Chinese drama base, national art college internship base, national primary and secondary education experience base, national middle-aged and elderly leisure and health base. Every weekend and holidays, many people in the city will come to the small fishing village to enjoy some leisure time.

Peasant paintings covered on the walls, green leather trains filled with stories, B & Bs of different styles... Nanyidong Valley has transformed from an unknown remote mountain village into a famous beautiful island mountain village.

Strolling through the Nandong Art Valley, the green mountains conceal it, and the Zhejiang-style farmyards with white walls, gray tiles, and flying eaves and arched arches form a Jiangnan rural painting.

There is a stream in the village. The source of the stream is Nandong Reservoir behind the mountain. The reservoir is surrounded by several mountains covered with trees. It is very eye-catching. I didn't climb the dam in Fulong this time.

There is a swimming pool under the reservoir dam, which was built by the owner of a B & B in the village. The water has not yet been discharged that day.


There is a lake under the swimming pool. The lake is in the center of the village and surrounded by flowers. Full score.

There is a fisherman's dock on the shore of the lake, where several traditional wooden fishing boats are docked. This is a permanent berth to restore the disappeared Zhoushan boat culture and fishing culture and tell the story of the fishermen's past.

The most interesting thing is the green-browed boat, which is said to be shaped to drive away water monsters.

Why is it called the "Green Eyebrow Boat"? Because the green bands on both sides of the bow are like the eyebrows on human eyes, they are called "green eyebrows".

In the quiet part of the village, there is a "Huachun Garden" farmhouse. The leader once visited it and has become famous since then.

The park is packed every day, and it is difficult for the store owner not to make a fortune. He counts the money until he is soft.

Sitting in the seat where the leader has sat and taking a picture is a must-have action for all visitors.

Seeing that people from the city are constantly coming, villagers vacated their houses and converted them into B & Bs, some of which were newly built. There are now 20 B & Bs in the village.


There are many high-end boutique hotels in the B & Bs. They are of traditional Chinese style, elegant and exquisite, and appropriately cater to the peaceful and leisurely paradise life that urbanites yearn for. They seem to take people away from this complex world, and can't help but sigh at this beautiful Nandong.

Outside the courtyard, there are distant mountains and green mountains, inside the courtyard is filled with flowers, and the house is clean and tidy.

Farmers who used to only fish and wield hoes can also open cafes and milk tea shops. You can drink your first cup of milk tea in autumn in Nandong.

It is said that the buildings in the old streets have long been favored by stars. Living in such a embrace of nature, even creation will have new inspiration.

Even the toilet is so pleasant, would you rather stay in it for a while longer?

The village's cultural auditorium is located in the center of the village. It has two floors. The first floor is the drama exhibition hall, which is an important part of the "China Nandong·Drama Valley", and the second floor is the memorial hall for leaders 'research and inspection activities in Zhoushan.

The auditorium is for everyone to visit, while the Mass Art Creation Center is for villagers and tourists to play. It is possible to create a group of new artistic stars here.

"Zhoushan has trains."

Do you believe it?

Everyone on earth knows that there are no trains in Zhoushan, but why is there a real train parachuted in in this remote mountain village?

It is not an ordinary train. It is a special train that transported scientists who developed the "two bombs and one satellite". Later, it was retired and dragged by the villagers to Nandong Village, thousands of miles away. It seems that the villagers have a special complex and yearning for trains. Blame the sea for this. The vast ocean makes Zhoushan the only prefecture-level city in Zhejiang Province that cannot access trains.


The old steam train lying on the side of the village square has a glorious history and is named the "Meritorious Service". It is the most eye-catching place and the most lively place in the village.

The eight-carriage green-skinned steam train has become an antique big thing. It is the iconic literary and artistic responsibility of Nandong Art Valley. It is like returning to the old times of the last century when horses and horses were slow.

The old-fashioned traffic lights have also been cloned, showing traces of mottled years, bringing memories to us in the high-speed rail era ~

If you want to go to Jiayuguan, don't take this bus.

Two carriages were converted into cafes, and the original seats were removed and replaced with tables and chairs with a literary accent.

Sitting in the cafe in the carriage and chatting is worth it.

The lighting inside is well laid out and very dreamy.

It's completely different if the broken copper and rotten iron are placed here, which is very impressive.

Sitting in the carriage and looking out, there is an idyllic scenery.


Along the long carriages, villagers set up a stall in each household, selling dried shrimps, oranges, baked potatoes and things not produced in the village.

Most of the people who set up stalls are the elderly and women. They don't have to travel far to get rich at home.

Tourists like to climb onto tall cars to take photos, which reminds people of the old days when they were far away from their hometown and traveled by train.

Sister, look at your skills. Are you from the Railway Military Engineering Team?

It is also quite pleasant to take a walk in the train square.


Although this is only an AAA scenic spot, it is not worse than a 5A scenic spot. The environment is very good, the air is very fresh, and man and nature are one. People around us love to come here for a day or two to experience slow life.


Finally, for something practical, take Bus No. 553 in Dinghai to get off at Xinjian Village Station, or take Bus No. 531 to get off at the Teaching Team Station, and walk 400 meters.


After finishing lunch at noon, I left at 2 o'clock and returned to Hangzhou. After arriving in Hangzhou, I looked for my mother.


I took the bus to the north gate of the Civic Center and came to Qianjiang New City to watch the fountain and light show. I was just in time for the 7:30, and there was also a 30-minute event at 8:30.

There is a "moon" in the east, which is the Hangzhou Grand Theater.

There is a "sun" to the west, which is the Intercontinental Hotel. The two buildings together have a nice name: Sun and Moon Shines Together.


Looking around, you can see high-rise buildings rising from the ground. It feels a little like Lujiazui, Shanghai. The night view of the modern city attracts many people to come for leisure, viewing and entertainment. People take photos and videos while watching, letting out bursts of exclamations and cheers. Let you feel the vitality of Hangzhou New City. The gorgeous light show attracts even more attention, and the huge avatar screen of the high-rise buildings presents a colorful image.

Go further on to the city balcony, where you can enjoy the Qiantang River up close, the light show and music fountain staged during the G20 Summit, making it a new Internet celebrity attraction in Hangzhou.

The underground is a very large urban complex. After that, I ordered curry pork chop rice in the underground complex, and then rushed to Metro Line 4 to Hangzhou East Railway Station. On May Day trip to Hangzhou and Zhoushan, goodbye.
