Sunday morning, 7 o'clock got up. Called a taxi, telling the driver to "a train station to the source of Taihu Lake", 4 money into the (taxi prices starting at 4 yuan, a small town where, as long as in the city, Basically, no more than 4 million). just catch up with the 8:30 shuttle bus (16 Road).
Chu Liaocheng car a short while on the drive. Countryside on both sides of the highway from time to time to see a punta a punta bamboo, and more later, bamboo the more dense, and later discovered that the locals put the same kinds of bamboo as crops, was probably intended to bamboo bar (a large bamboo shoot is the local specialty oh). so you can see in the plains, the hill on the front of the house behind the house into a piece of bamboo, the closely-packed. In the bamboo huts are set off under the extraordinarily elegant, this way, I understand why the ancients said, "can not live without bamboo."
Scenic area in the valley. Car for quite some winding mountain road, both sides are the mountains. Here the mountains, unlike the northern mountains of vigorous vigorous, but there is another delicate and pretty, and Aura. Mountain is tall, tall trees and bamboo, ferns, next to a tree, without an inch of bare soil to see distant mountains, like the whole body covered with green fur. If it were not repair the road, this mountain, it really can not enter.
Finally to a scenic area at the entrance, only heard a buzzing sound of the water, it was found from the water like a lock in limitless scenic spots like where spewing out of the gate is already the Wu Buyi Lake, the 10 steps of a waterfall. Go look inside, flanked by tall, lush plants, the bottom is huge rocks, stones in the spring on the Pentium rumble down, in a place a little bit flat, they put together large and small lake, the water here quietly Da Zhaoxuan, from the cracks in the stone then quietly slipped away. I already can not wait to Tuo Lexie socks, wade into a crystal clear sokdam years, flooded into the knee, cool, soles of the feet is a smooth stone. There are shallow places where you can sit in an exposed surface of the stone, Chui Chui mountain breeze, listen to acoustic.
Along the way water is always around us with the Pentium. Yesterday, exquisite mountains, at times when the hidden springs and here the small unit compared to is simply juvenile. The Delicate lying mountains here, sokdam Longtan and compared, although both to the pure and clear, but the former is a broad serene, unfathomable, while the latter is a vibrant, crystal clear.
I do not know how many times along the way off shoes and socks, how long deep pool play before, and finally reached the valley where the more open, he saw hanging from a distant hilltop green white chain, said it is the real source of Taihu Lake, and then next to no way out (in fact, after that there are large areas of no development of the rolling hills all).
We climbed the top of big bang, there is also a sokdam, of course, in its upstream splashed water flow in, and from the downstream splashed out to go. Here the water, out of the water quality were good, since it is to the source, be sure to try this source of water, it is considered worthwhile. Ju Yipeng entrance, is really a sweet Qinglie used tea cooking, it must be the last choice, it is the city's tap water can not be compared.
Uphill climb most of the day, down just over an hour, we visited the foot of the sundries market, browsing, are to buy bamboo shoots, fungus, hazelnut, small walnut, and some can not tell the name of the dried fruit, have become so are particularly tasty, especially tasty than the city packaged, placed in supermarket tasty multi-sold (and may be hungry after climbing). We bought many, soon, finished.
There is another point forgot to say, the upper reaches of mountain hill sale of fresh bamboo shoots, strung together a bunch of put Guo li cook, really very tasty and the prices are expensive, as long as a bunch of money, I ate a lot, used to supplement physical strength, early adopters, or Jie Chan, is a good choice oh.
Back to the city five or six o'clock in the evening, we found a small restaurant to eat, they eat different good things, one is fried fern, fresh and wild, there is a faint aroma (not copper or parsley that Artemisia kinds of Chinese Medicine Smell the aroma a bit), and taste tender and delicious, and the Shanghai restaurant to make the taste is absolutely different. The other is the "mold food snail pot" and start thought it was molded dried vegetable,
Came, know that this is Shaoxing mold amaranth roots, Jiangsu and Zhejiang people should know: dazzling rough, stem and where are the juice is very fresh, there are shares of stinky tofu smell. Sp cabbages and snail, are to the fresh thing, coupled with Smelly taste, cook a pot, came alive again in a few dried red pepper, to reflect on the enjoyable taste, and a pot of red and green, looking at opened on the appetite.
For food and play, accessibility and consumption are low, so I am really a worthwhile trip. But do not think that's it, tomorrow we go, will be more impressed you are - that is, volcanic Big Valley.
