A few days ago, my husband and I passed through the southwestern city Shippo. Heard that last Minhang District government has renovated this millennium mining town, the first phase of the project had been completed and opened in 2023 in the will in the future of this large from the Northern Song Dynasty remains under all the renovated historical buildings, as the Shanghai urban rivers and lakes, town, Lao Cai landscape features.
Our car is turning from the Qixin Puhuitang directly along the central streets, sir, give me half an hour, does this look enough, regardless. Off to see a new three-hole stone, allegedly built in the Ming Masanori Ishibashi years, originally built the five-hole when the stone bridge, the latter due to bridge both sides of the river narrows and Yan Qu hole, it becomes a three-hole bridge, This new stone bridge was spent last year in the original position, according to the reconstruction of the prototype is Puhuitang the most ambitious three-hole stone bridge - Tangqiao. Qibao both rivers and lakes, bridges, ranging from Sijing Qibao to the river, the stone bridge there are ten blocks.
To Tangqiao as the center, points north and south street, I naturally went Tangqiao, stay a moment on the bridge, north and south watch, gray tiles and white walls vermilion doors and windows, lined up. After a Puhuitang is the North Main Street, Tangqiao the shape of the restaurants are the first Song Pingtan came the sound of old people like to hear on the town Pingtan. 23 meters wide along the stone path to move around, to see the silk silk, handicrafts, fashion Tang suit, as well as bookstores, lettering shops, fan shops, this street is a shop based north. In a room to see an ancient textile machine, note that from the wall, when Shanghai's handwoven cloth, not only exported to North Korea, and traveled far away to London. 17th century English gentleman, to wear "Longhua sharp, Qibao tip" for fashion.
Walked the streets of Beijing University, the young Road Pedestrian Street, Everywhere tall door beams, "Qibao Old Street" four huge running script lying in golden light, in its "Behind the Song Remains" phase and India. Is opposite to boil for a short bell tower stands, tower there is a positive couplet: "sunset promenade shade of a thin, wind back to the shelf bell far", scroll reads is: "boil for a short to bell." This is the clock tower, listening to an old pond, that is to boil for a short exchange from the Po (floating) over, so called "boil for a short to bell."
Street to the right of the tree a stone and saw the engraved inscription, "Shippo legend." Because there is no time to read the full text is only part of a hurry here, from the 1008 Qibao in this name, the original seven Baby: boil for a short to Bell, Jade Lord, jade chopsticks, Golden Rooster, catalpa, flying Buddha , pitched seven books which treasure, derived from place names retained here Qibao town, of course, there are seven seven treasure legend, as I say, incomplete, and will know the Millennium catalpa still there, the last pitched a gem collection in the Shanghai Museum preserved.
Hurriedly through the North Main Street, once again came to pass Tangqiao Nanda street, the smell of the aroma from me hungry, has to noon the dinner, and the whole street full of snacks, I do not know Chishimehao, then a Also in the car waiting for me like Mr., they bought the famous Begonia Qibao cake, and so a while to eat together on board!
South Street is a street to eat, there are a lot of Qibao traditional snack, there are a variety of modern kebab. Shippo Shippo Daqu is wine, Qibao the most famous white-cut lamb, I do not eat lamb, so there is no feeling to it, there is a Qibao of Begonia cake. These three foods are Qibao specialty. I have always been on the snacks are not interested in, so although there are many famous Nanda street snacks, and some have their places to eat and pay attention to, I do not understand the Nothing.
Went to the tail of South Street and saw a store called Shippo bamboo, all of a variety of bamboo for daily use, I am like, in which carefully watched for a while. Back to Shippo plan also identified a carpentry shop, showing all of which are essential in the past when the girls married supplies, such as the size of the foot barrels, descendants barrels, big eater, textile machines, the amount of meters of the Big Dipper ah, etc., is made of a scaled-down , and as handicrafts for sale, I asked the price of 200 yuan each.
At this time I am almost back to the phone reminder, and I rushed to the car-step and two-step. One hour can not feel the town is absolutely true and meaning, however, Qibao town reminds me a lot of memories ... ...
Shippo was first heard in 1981, when because of the girlfriend who lives in the same dormitory Shippo, hospitality and invited me home to play his girlfriend. At the time Qibao relatively urban areas is the countryside, transport inconvenient, incumbent, a trip to a couple of cars 23 hours before that, so that even if a guest is a traveling.
Early in the morning to go out to her house is noon, girlfriend poverty at home, the father died from a result of work, she decided to replace factories. I remember her family also Pan raises pigs, and there stood a house, a lot of production tools, in front of a large Huangcan Can the rape, then it is time were newly settled, and I, and his girlfriend in a field full of rape walk it. Memory Qibao town, which is composed of several Shop stores, as well as some very old and very old houses are still lived. Qibao Even if I had first met.
(20 century), the mid-nineties, I heard that Qibao is already a very busy residential area, all kinds of large buying market, supermarkets everything, commodity floor blocks of where they stand, the famous Vanke City Garden, in the Qibao out into the limelight, that has an identity, but who live in the wealthy district. Attracted Qibao changes, a few years ago to buy a house, buy a house of my choice Qibao do one of the areas Shippo Qukan Fang Xing rushed to the road only half an hour, easily accessible, and Pakistan raise an arm to stop various line extending in all directions. Qibao has fundamentally changed, and displayed in front of me is a brand new look. After the result of taking into account the more distant from the parents finally gave up in the Shippo purchase, however, I feel it is Qibao have a good place.
Today's Qibao once again I am surprised, the road is more broad, green flowers spread throughout the Shippo region, commodity floor shape is both varied and colorful, that price makes speechless. In such a new and modern residential quarters to do with the integration of the Millennium town as a whole is really giving people a new sense of prosperity in the antique.
Well, think about the restaurants in town and sit Qibao Po exchange pond jog trot, the Northern Song Dynasty walls next to the old one stays for a while ah! Thought, the car already starting, and the Millennium town like a scene from my eyes, like passing.
