The first day: (the beginning of the second, 2001/1/25 light rain in the afternoon to evening in the snow)
At 3:10 am, we are riding the 5054 second train left Shanghai station at last, to Nanjing, the direction of Feishi away. Due to the spring peak, this group of special trains crowded, the corridors jammed with people who only buy standing tickets. Carriage bustling, smoke flavor, and a foot odor filled the whole car. The original thought of the car can be to sleep for a while, to see this, but also had to forget. Only with me The fine hairs of a dog is like piglets Side, a quarter of an hour after the last car on the time to sleep ... ...
Morning 7:40 am, the train pulls into the Nanjing Railway Station, the train, cold wind to blow against our faces, I do not actually shrink from his neck, punched a chill. Fortunately, Nanjing is relatively easy to adapt to the cold, and soon I was off the hook. First, buy a map, according to friends from accommodation we offer advice, I have a dog with fine hairs After some discussions, has decided to go straight to the Nanjing Aeronautical Institute Guest House.
Under the car to the Ming Palace, we saw the original Ming Palace has been fully destroyed, only in this piece of vacant land at intervals of a distance can see a hotel, but also reminiscent of the former palace of the basic model. Others have all been replaced by a lawn. Opposite the National Palace Museum in the Ming-wu Gate Park, the park deserted, the ticket people who disappeared, the garden only a few braved the rain at the old man Granny physical activity. Park destroyed most of the monuments are also listed out in full, and only a large gate standing there. I do not know before the Emperor often said, "pull-wu Gate beheading" Is that the door does? Anyway, I still left a shadow in front of the city.
To the Southern Guest House, did not expect all closed down, and even personal video at all. And I decided to immediately enact a dog fine hairs off, heading straight for the second residential point, the Plum Garden restaurant in Plum Village, I learned that the Air Force is also a guest house. Along the way, pedestrians rarely, the world a thin drizzle, while the roads to the iron stores are also all-generals door. Along the way, we asked a number of pedestrians, and then walk a certain amount of road, time to 11:30 time-sharing, we are nothing (ate rice to the store had not found), even as we despair, it was told the Plum Garden restaurant I go. There a question, the standard room 170 yuan / per room, wow, really scary, I fainted on the spot. So we checked into the hotel not far from the Plum Garden in the north hotel, standard room 45 yuan / per room, but no heating, but the rooms spacious, bright, and fairly clean.
Accommodation were available, we decided to hurry to go out to play food (breakfast), fill their bellies. With great difficulty to find a shop at the junction, and under the surface the existence of a broken rag in flavor, but now we have not too much care, and breath to drink his shirt. Then we have the effort to ask the owner why the street shops do not open the door, people rarely, the whole of Nanjing as a ghost town, did not think the owner said that because of Chinese New Year, but also raining, so people do not come out, shop does not door啦. Days! Once again, I collapsed.
That afternoon, we came very close to the presidential palace from the residence. The beginning of the presidential palace built in the Ming and said Han Palace. Jiang Qing Dynasty Governor's Office for two. Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in 1853 to build a heavenly palace in this. 1912 to January 1, Sun Yat-sen in this term Republican president. Chiang Kai-shek in 1927 to set up the National Government. When the war here has been reduced to the Japanese and puppet regime authorities, but after 1946 the National Government and the Presidential Palace complex. April 23, 1949, the PLA occupied the presidential palace. We are here Zouleyizao, where in addition to presentation of the history of you stay on the presidential palace masters of the biographies and the size of its building at the time, as well as Hong's residence and the Chiang Kai-shek's government offices, meetings and other House. In particular, the National government offices, it is a combination of Chinese and Western architectural styles, the looks that is western architectural styles, there are Chinese classical solemnity, looks heavy, but not stiff. Xu at the presidential palace and a park named after the garden, is said to be the second South Park, it can be seen later, can only be disappointing.
Out of the presidential palace, we came to the Qingliangshan car is said here, the many monuments, but we reached the mountains, the mountains and deserted, the so-called monuments are also really can not find anything. And that famous sweeping leaves hung upstairs only pieces of Gong Xian's painting, I quickly called the fine hairs to help identify what the dog had no idea that he said it was all imitation. Oh, really disappointing. Peak Office, there are several ward, which are on display are some of stone, each stone has a name, but most of all appeared to imply that far-fetched. Daoshi fossils on display at the edge seem to have some good-looking, are some of paleontology, fossils and dinosaur eggs, there are many of them I have never seen before. However, if fossil-away in order to see if again some worth, I would rather go to the Nanjing Institute of Geology, it was at the edge of Xuanwu Lake and jimingsi is China's most extensive set of collections research collections on display with the science of at a paleontological museum specimens of one. Unfortunately, the tight schedule, did not go into.
As a full day of rolling rain, coupled with night slept on the train into a spaced throughout the day. So we decided to go to the Confucius Temple, where you can rest, you can eat and drink, I think I will soon be recovered.
Ride to the Confucius Temple, Street, both sides are a classic two-story building, is lively in the dealings to attract visitors that the city deserted and formed a strong contrast. Looking at this particular rooms had only heard the name of eateries, fine hairs of dogs and I can not help feeling a bit agitated, quickly came to the odd-Fang Ge. There are packages supply, the supply of each set of packages Qinhuai snacks. We want a set of 20 yuan, and had a number of children, Miss came, each with a small-sample are filled with, each plate mounted on one or two snacks, and looked very elegant, can eat only in general. Qi Fang said that the characteristics of Ge is a duck crisp fried snacks and assorted Cai Bao, but the lady said they do not know. I think this is the most important is that they just want to forward to every kind of want to do, yet his features were lost, and will develop into such a strange creature.
Next, we went to Jiangnan Gongyuan. Jiangnan Gongyuan roads built in the Southern Song Dynasty four years (1168), is the largest test sites in ancient China. Heard of peak periods, No. 20644 homes, there is someone to deliver meals, there Liao tower can monitor test is very strict. But when we went to see, only a few test homes, and perhaps others have been requisitioned for the Confucius Temple of the bar. Gongyuan there are still dedicated a room, introduced at that time the size of the examination room, candidates of the meals (if very hard, it is difficult to eat, no wonder when it should be called the decade Hanchuang! In this case, if the words of my high school lifts , perhaps the bar should go crazy.), scholar's cap and gowns, while not anything special, but also to the imperial examination system was an understanding of bar. Heard that the original there are many bookstores around the Confucius Temple and Imperial House called the name of the class, many candidates have come here to buy books and to discuss mining mouth it.
To go look inside is the Confucius Temple flower and bird market. Confucius Temple is said to flower and bird markets have a long history, especially its goldfish to grow up particularly well. A visit here this time, fruit-deserved reputation, where you can raise some goldfish to a lot and it is flexible, while in Shanghai, If this is the goldfish, have been shown to the old state, not blind, that is, tail off, no longer is a pure late response, as if got Alzheimer's disease-like. The fine hairs are concerned about dog stone, one to here, you head buried in a box it is only after reading this, then look at that, kicking up clouds of small business owners to heart itch too, want to buy stone to him. Of course, the poor is my problem, I did not chance to look at that, had to an umbrella for him.
Suddenly, we heard a little girl in a store, said the outside to snow, hail, and I would like to have Goucan, and how this person can开这种玩笑it! Did not expect to see one outside, and indeed have already played a feather out of the snow, the beginning of the snow is also sandwiched a little rain, but all the snow on the Buduoyikuai. For me this long to live in Shanghai, girls, can see the snow, really should be happy to do ah, but now I really can not be happy, because my face has been frozen. This time, I firmly do not intend to buy another dog to accompany fine wool stone, and he had to settle me bleeding in the tea room for Xiao Xie. Tea room full of piles of people playing cards, but added my tea have become Han Wu. However, here, although the environment is not the best, tea is not the best, but compared to the outside environment, or do not have some cave heavens, I should certainly be content with啦! Oh, did not expect, Nanjing trip to be ruined in this way, my heart birth slightest remorse for ... ...
Drunk tea, we are ready to leave the Confucius Temple, and thought of the future may never chance to Confucius Temple, and we still have a little heart to accept defeat, braving heavy snow took some pictures before leaving.
