Did not want to go to Zhouzhuang (as early as four years ago, I even felt by the Zhouzhuang is not very good, maybe because at that time I did not know how to how to appreciate the bar), but there is a dedicated friend of the foreigner (IK ) would like to use the weekend to experience the following "rural" atmosphere (original words of copy).
Task because there are receiving foreign dignitaries in the body, so forced landing Ctrip for information, with a view to complete everything. In the public Internet friends highly recommended, I chose the Museum starting Saturday at noon from the upper body, mind at ease and Fontaine Shuangqiao stay a night ride 9 am the next morning's swim 4 Hui Hu.
July 28 at noon on our way poison sent Dongzhuang bus station, orderly tricycle Hou Kung Fu has been a long time, looked very good Ojisan (Japanese: uncle) that will carry us to only 5 minutes away but asking price 5 yuan of maple Dan Shuangqiaoshan Resort. The arrangements in place, we began to contend with the hot summer day trips.
In the resort there is a path leading to the side door, Shen hall, where there is a way for one person only passed, both sides of the walls of houses had fallen off fade, at the foot of rugged stone Taiwan taste quite a long way, so inevitably IK as a few back to Film - killer, is also quite lamented to say is it depends on something. (Sometimes the Japanese nostalgia for the Chinese people better than poor)
Alley in a flourishing population, tourists, hawkers, villagers mixed, selling sound, noisy sound of one after another. Hustle and bustle of Zhouzhuang as four years ago. IK row upon row of shops on both sides of indifference, (because it is not a woman's sake bar), while the second floor windows of the Office of the Shen quite tempted. When visiting the most scenic spots, the almost dusk. (In fact, we stroll slowly, because they do not rush the car back to Shanghai the same day, otherwise, do cursory Side walk around without 2.5 hours.) Convergence time, the sun a little and decided to play by boat. Shen is the ticket office opposite the hall is also on board at the afternoon due to the many visitors, the vessels will be filled with rivers, as a long narrow section of the ship parking lot. Fortunately, we went to the time, visitors have been few, and the cool breeze, which felt cool. We rented a boat, 60 yuan, I heard that you can visit 25 minutes. Subsequently, however, looked at his watch 20 minutes not to! That is 1.5 per person per one minute!
Grinder is a Obasan (Japanese: Aunt), wearing uniforms: long-sleeved blue cloth coat (although its texture is far from exclusive blue cloth shop in Shanghai compared to). Although the day did live, as her last day, guests, she is very warm when you introduce some Zhouzhuang situation. IK, after the discovery of the Japanese, but also told us last month, there is a Japanese guests from her to buy something there, spent 1,000 yuan, your Road is what the material world? Was originally a scull! ? (I am just wondering how can he / she carry it all the way back to Japan!?)
Zhouzhuang see the scenery from the ship also has other interesting and sunset the sun spilled over the river through the green leaves, is very good-looking. Looked Obasan skilled grinder gesture, with Yi Gu approached a test impulse, so in Obasan's help, passed an addiction. Obasan did not expect the initiative to invite IK also a test run, but did not expect that the IK actually embarrassed themselves, in my instigation, ultimately had a bit field. Disembarkation place in the west of Shuangqiaoshan time is 6:30, because lunch hastily resolved, Luk Luk intestinal muscle is within walking distance of us walked down to a small hotel in the north Shuangqiao. In a small square table Linhe seated, the friendly boss sent her daughter a thin handwriting Menu. Because the Japanese bad greasy food, so no point of the famous, the streets were the Manzo Tibang. The boss daughter's suggestion, we have a point of a local fish (sorry, the name has been forgotten, just remember the high price of 40 yuan), the Qing mix cucumber, fried screws, fans wait for minced meat pot. Can still taste, that is a little more salt, the local beer, the taste is very light Zhouzhuang, was almost think it is a fresh water. It is worth mentioning is the boss's enthusiasm and care, specially under the small table in the guest's point of mosquito coils, opened at the side of the fan. Slightly Unfortunately, the way a few people come to make Sales & Promotion, not Chang Qu, and is to ask the play the guitar, not pull erhu, and is to ask the show-dancing, and it is some annoying, did not expect commercial awareness has penetrated into the every corner of a small village.
When we were outside a small hotel, the sky was dark, individual wooden doors have been gradually closed, just a few small shops are still painstakingly built up with the hope a little more Sales Volume. After the fond, or onto the hundred steps, 1000 steps as well, so we stroll freely in the river on both sides. Suddenly heard a burst standard American English came from the front, the three foreigners are the face of approaching (and later learned that the arrival of tourists from New York), asked the hotel how to go from here? Careless foreigners original name of the hotel did not even pay attention to, adding a little anyway, Zhouzhuang, the total find on. (Later met by their peers before we find out, is a hotel close to the whole Temple.) So, IK and I had to admire the American style of doing things.
Zhouzhuang is the evening of their own, while the rare visitor who is viewing. Wu Nong flavored soft language from the Shenyang Office Restaurant Pingtan rains, looking at the tea room entertain themselves, and a look peaceful people, excitedly while sipping tea, while listening to the Pingtan, and perhaps this is the essence of life bar.
Zhouzhuang is a beautiful morning, from the room looked out the window in the South Lake scenery is pleasant. Alley has absolutely no noise and noise during the day, everything was so natural and quiet, IK said that he wanted to see this is Zhouzhuang, the Song Dynasty architectural style, harmonious small bridges, quiet, pleasant atmosphere,
With the coach's time to start, we Zhouzhuang Sound and quiet to stay behind, but also to all the good memories and impressions remain in the memories of the! I was about to ask IK willing to live here, he said: "I really want to drink a cup of coffee!" I can not help but smile Yaran, yes, long live the people in the city have been accustomed to its own set of life, and Zhouzhuang Water Village for us this is just a good clip, a immersive feelings and try to just!
