While in Shanghai, Suzhou Jin Ju-hour drive, but I have not visited for years, and this short trip will give up all of the city's attractions, because I admire and seek is that the Maple Leaf and Tin Ping Shan, Suzhou suburbs in the autumn scene.
When I boarded the train K290 (fare 15 yuan), enjoying the Friday that Yonglan sunlight, his eyes changed hands in the fast-speeding of the scenery outside the window, feeling has gradually away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Although the fall harvest season, but also gives a sad feeling, after all, is the golden leaf, is bleak autumn could be it, but it is my favorite, because you can go around all the sentiment, recalling the circumstances, remembering past , finishing mood, give yourself a nostalgic and decadent reasons. At the same time, there are too many good things that happen in autumn, especially in late autumn. First, Ju Huang Xie Fei; secondly, leaves Man Shan; the only two reasons to have enough time to put down Friday's work and escape the city, to their own leisure to enjoy a comfortable weekend.
Multi-9 o'clock arrived at Suzhou Railway Station, a friend A to them to stay, take a swim 3, go to the home of another friend's B concourse. B is a foreigner living in the new districts Mansion, now a Jiaoshu Jiang, formerly a foreign pharmaceutical company's senior management. In fact, he need not work, because like China, like Suzhou, leaving to give those local universities and training companies to teach students English. One Bedroom house located on the first floor, outside there is a large garden, there is a dog house. Hall very spacious, the warm sun has been most generous spilled on the carpet laid in the hall and sat on a rocking chair and enjoy the rich aroma of coffee. Hall B of the solid-wood furniture and some specially brought from Canada, very natural and simple. Walls were plastered with pictures of various sizes and some large companies, such as the training room posted such as the "solution" and other comic-style instruction, the protagonist of the cover photograph of his family to the local circle of friends.
D friends when we arrive, our departure time. B Liang Xianaotuo drove his car, (though not for his physique), carrying three passengers, we embarked Tin Ping Shan. Tin Ping Shan because of a time when Maple Leaf Festival, so normal 10 yuan to 18 yuan ticket price increases, it is recommended: in Suzhou locals can buy monthly tickets, only to be 10 yuan, equivalent to the usual daily tickets. 221 meters high in the scale should be the highest mountain in Suzhou, and overlooking the scenery of Suzhou urban and rural areas, including the Hill and not far from Lingyan Mudu next town. In fact, in the mountains do not see the red maple, in the door of a large place there are plenty of maple are red, the color of fallen leaves are very colorful, some dried yellow, light green, dark red, blue green and so on. There is one called the "Flying Daggers" The crew here filming a pity not meet PLMM. The process of climbing through a number of thin strip of sky, it took about 30 minutes and can be reached Peak, the road near the mountains are big rocks, sometimes hands and feet, with particular attention to the peak of a small sand and gravel more slippery. See a number of local students or young people in Suzhou, where random sat enjoying lunch or snacks to carry, the only pity is that they throwing discards, so that the Peak is not the net a bit.
When we made a Tin Ping Shan was already 13:00 hours. We plan to ship food dinner meal in the Taihu Lake. 2:00 arrived, we hunger intestinal Luk Luk. The blazing afternoon sun shone on the calm waters in the Taihu Lake, sparkling. Bridge approach on both sides of the hotel is very luxurious decoration, as passed at noon, so few diners little. We chose a restaurant in the final, point of the famous three white, of course, essential nutrient-rich Taihu Lake hairy crabs and eels. Autumn's warm sun injection restaurant, focusing on our table, is indeed a feast meal. And the rice wine, the crabs on the four two-tier, four of us to feast on a meal that corruption is very raising mouth, Yang Wei. 399 bill is everything, of course, the price through!. (Although very tasty, but indeed more expensive, a crab must oceans 50.)
2 hours of the meal so that some of our sleepy, 3:30, out of the restaurant, we drove to the Western Hills. The way it takes a lot, but the scenery along the way is also excellent on the road in the way to three bridges across the lake on top of the villas built near the lake and the district have their own characteristics, is estimated to be around the small resort of the rich home, or rent or purchase.
Western Hills near the small road on both sides of the reeds sway in the breeze under the posture, as well as a small tribute golden orange flashes in the midst of citrus in the film, Shashi let us tempted. However, we arrived Shigong Hill, has been 16:30, after consultations, bought three tickets, 75 yuan, the four of us entered the door. (The first time that the original tickets can also bargain Ha ha!) A time when the sunset is red, the surface of the water of Taihu Lake has the shadow of the sunset and the afterglow, a little rafting floating in which it is picturesque raise the eyes. Not high Shigong Hill will soon be able to reach the top hill, I appreciate that side of the stairs while you can look back at the setting sun shines into this gradually under the yellowing of the trees, trails, deciduous, kiosk. Because few people, so intoxicating evening Shigong Hill markedly effective.
Leave Shigong Hill when the sky was dark, half-way we bought some oranges, some small, some fairly slightly sweet. Back to the B's home, people do not feel hungry, so Shenkan something, let us go, "exercise" the. Because there is a club, you can free some sports, we have chosen to ping-pong match, so a while ping ping pong pong, men and women against the Chinese and foreign combat, combined lot. In short, friendship first, competition second. In fact, we are almost level, belonged to the rookie class, Oh! Night we went out again, in Xinjiang, a noodle shop, eat some beef and a wide face, Nuanwei, also said that today the end of the day trip.
The next day in the morning the sun is still bright, warm spring sunlight, such as sprinkling ucc coffee glass table, slept a good sense of us, lazy couch seat inside and enjoy a papaya milk tea and皮蛋瘦肉粥. Really is no need to resort to consider when getting up, when starting, when returned, everything is so random, casual, arbitrary. See what the pedestrians, the pedestrian Saturday, the pace is relaxed, smiling face are similar.
Slightly due to B's car problems, so we first went to repair shop for inspection and repair. Suzhou people kindly, where the master and the B Bi Jiaoshu, so driving a sort of a small joke, cordial and friendly atmosphere also spread, carried on.
Etc. Once again, we ready when it is 11 o'clock, B recommendations to Shek Wu, where there is a top of the Hill Park, opposite the fact is that Shek Wu, but somehow, the Government seems to have its landfill, and not see the water, and and the opposite Wuyuechunqiu are becoming fewer because of tourists, but closed up shop. The top of the hill tickets 16 yuan, of course, we also Block, cable cars, 26 per issue. Can be directly up to the Tayuan, where there is a built in Sui Dynasty the top of the tower, all the way through is the old house, mottled wall, peeling off the walls, as well as wrapped around the walls of the leaves were described in its long and tirelessly history. The top of the tower has also been senile, like the one about the monk who passed away, hanging head together in prayer, written for the virtue of the wind.
The cable car trip up and down that I felt most freehand a way, because it overlooks the spread of a foot in your layers of multicolor autumn tree, row of trees to make dye, the color of the leaves were extreme, gathered around, laughing with.
Subsequently, we went to a town south: Mudu, although not as Zhouzhuang, Wuzhen so famous, but they belong to Jiangnan Water Village town, has a similar small bridge, flowing water, people, two thousand years of history, her with a unique style and strict family garden private garden makes me feel wealthy family in southern luxury and affluence.
Guangfu a collection of lamb is very famous, so our lunch out there to solve, as yesterday, we arrived in the dining room was already 13:30 pm, saying a joke so soon: "When we had finished our lunch, the sun was setting," Ha ha! A whole lamb Package 140 yuan, to send 2 snacks, such as cucumber, peanuts, but also a vegetable. Of course characters absolutely sheep, sheep every part, from the eye to the hoof, no drop. Soft lamb, there is no imaginary foul smell that kind of sheep, but now is a thick meat flavor, bustling, mutton soup, the first legs of venison with red sauce, as well as savory fried sheep raft! You can also come to a bar! Corruption is a typical dinner meal! So I half-day trip to Suzhou suburb of mutton in the books in the successful conclusion of the aftertaste!
