Spicy in Chongqing
This has long attracted just arrived in the provisional capital, it made me feel a different atmosphere. Under the boat, had to take a cable car up along the hillside, climbed 10 meters before the flat land. Period, I can only glanced at Chaotianmen hastily, like a wheel of the bow, lying at the intersection of the Jialing River and the Yangtze River.
Chongqing is the name of the stove out, and we are extremely well prepared mentally and did not want the day pretty cool, even the brother said we're lucky. Taxi sat on the road in Chongqing Shui 7 8 curved, jagged, that is my sense of direction rather good people can not figure out north and south, indeed, tasted the bitterness of the formidable mountain. Look carefully on the road, really does not a bicycle. We stayed in a hotel halfway up the mountain, the 14 floor, room no less than a high mountain road on the amount of a change in direction, but like in the 40 level. Looking at looking down, building layer upon layer of dense, high and low scattered, like the carpet on a cushion in the mountains near and far.
Ciqikou retain a little old town of Chongqing's shadow, like most of the same town in China, where white walls and gray tiles, stone path length. Walking see, people here live a very relaxed, you will not be forced to sell merchandise. To spend a few cents will be able to buy grass jelly, like a small snack, elimination heat thirst-quenching. What impressed me most was Maoxue Wang, washbasin full of a large basin in general, which has a large blood, meat and bamboo shoots, soup doused with spicy oil, Intuit delicious. The longest exposure is ciqikou primary schools, where artists gathered in the Anti-Japanese War, Samuel Chao Chung Ting is that the students here, we know more than half of the culture of celebrity has come here in times of war, incidentally recalled about the history of the war, visited for two hours before out. The afternoon, a cup of tea, a palm-leaf fan, a large shade, we sat around a circle, not far from the Jialing River in the flow.
In the evening, to the city center to go under in the Jiefangbei took Zhang to this one travel photos. Chongqing is also very pedestrian street Gaode scale, modern full, can be commercial street scene outside the contrast too big. Do as the Romans, though the summer heat, 81 Street, can not eat hot pot. Picture-hong TANG pot half was to begin also try shabu-hong TANG, until every pore is all because of the choking of the bitter and amplification, the mother will be completely become a decorative pot.
Chiba, in the pedestrian street "playing look", which is to a ship in Chongqing when the same young man to teach us, "playing the look" is a beautiful girl in the street in terms of meaning, according to him, no girls in Chongqing will blame you staring at her. "Hit hope" in a circle, nothing, perhaps south of the boys is also very introverted, less focus on bar. However, tall people are good, fear is where the unique climate and terrain making. 4 South girls sitting around, cheeky grievances, so I had with them said jokingly, etc., after the plateau had several heaven and give your look authentic Kham guy.
In Chongqing is only a short span of 24 hours, no complete impression, the next morning, we hurry to the start of the Dazu Rock Carvings. Ting miss the feeling of Chongqing, the war era, after all, been brilliant. Do not see people from Chongqing's hot character, but added in the way to go ciqikou a few enthusiastic members of the public take the initiative to guide our way, quite touching. And China, as elsewhere, Chongqing is in full swing to engage in construction work for the completion of Southwest's biggest city, go again.
Leisure Chengdu
"Land of Abundance" The reputation Ruleiguaner, located in southwest China's only land on the plain of the city, God seemed to especially love it. Since the construction of Dujiangyan Qin Shu-Shou-Bing since the Chengdu Plain Hanlaobaoshou, fish and rice fills the warehouses, many times in history to change China's destiny lay-Shih Rebellion Xuanzong this; Anti-Japanese War, where it is nourished rear anti-Japanese children. Chengdu, with a typical Chinese cultural prosperity, but it is close to the plateau snow-capped mountains, the southwest border areas, the unique geographical location Youji it into a special atmosphere. May be deep in the interior, a long time without war, hunger pain, wealthy south-west of reasons, Chengdu leisure well-known, so, longing for a long time Jinguancheng became an important stop on this trip, we are here rest, replenishment, and then on the plateau.
Auto gallop at high speeds, the haze of the clouds shrouded the earth, through the window, you can see still is rolling hills, more than a week ago, the feeling of the mountain have been from the excitement, emotion has become accustomed to numbness. As the road signs showing the closer away from Chengdu, the immediate field of vision is also increasingly open, and later, just like most of the south. Hearts know that we have thousands of kilometers away from home can be the scene where I have a feeling of home, Chengdu, were not seen for the more cordial.
Resident on the stadium in Sichuan near the monastery is surrounded by around, city of skyscrapers, the city's profile flat land spreading, until the ambiguity. When darkness fell, the lanterns are set with one of the city's downtown scene, China's "fourth city" so to show in my eyes.
To put before the Chengdu snacks checked a clear-cut, then went straight to Chunxi Road Unfortunately, this road has been transformed into a pedestrian street full of modern, all the snacks only focused on a snack in the city. Two or three days stay in Chengdu, we will basically be a famous snack of Chengdu, 11 taste, like the bell dumplings, dragon抄手, Lai glutinous rice balls, spicy tofu, and so I feel quite Hop appetite, as we had eaten Mapo Tofu twice, no less legendary spicy. We are about to leave Chengdu in the last one at noon, we went to the city famous "coarse grain King" self-service hot pot, voices, scenes of hot, though the heat of summer, more than a dozen vertical air conditioners simply can not resist to eat hot pot in Chengdu The hot climate, even the air is filled with bursts of spicy flavor. Walking in the streets of Chengdu, more people will see four table, in the roadside to eat something hot pot, listening to a taxi driver said, Chengdu people can eat as early in the evening three ton pot, so that those of us non-native had to amazement.
Chengdu in the country's well-known, is something that the Three Kingdoms era, until today, Shu Han Chengdu still preserved legacy. Because time is running out, many of the monuments in Chengdu, we chose the renowned Temple of Marquis. Temple of Marquis has not entirely to commemorate Zhuge Liang, and it is simply a three History Museum, exposure to which, in addition to a taste of Shu culture, to better understand the Chinese nation for thousands of years we promote the spirit, loyalty, filial piety, ritual, justice, wisdom and orthodoxy. Through these sites, these two thousand years ago the traditional concept of the ancients handed down from generation to generation to know about, is still deeply influenced the Chinese society. I did not care about the true historical story elements through it, I can see the history window, the first blood of our people are already inside bears the deep imprint. Whether it is wise, or shut down and that a group of military commanders who they left behind is to make us loyal to the country, harbor generous attempts, respect for wisdom, with these, is that enough.
Square at the center in Chengdu stands a huge Chairman Mao's image, which is surrounded by huge advertising and a lot of neon lights, commercial street, is lined with modern commercial buildings and stores, bustling during the flow of people walk through; in the lanes, alley entrance, the most common people to enjoy the shelter, playing cards, chat, audio, Jay Chou in singing, Funan River flowing quietly under the bridge in the city. This is what I saw in Chengdu cursory.
I have visited three cities in the west, Xi'an, Chongqing, Chengdu, on the downtown Chengdu, the Chengdu gave me the impression that the best. I am most envious of it, in Chengdu, not far around, there are many human and beauty of the scenery. Dujiangyan Irrigation with it, raise your head, you can see the snow-capped mountains on the floating white clouds, I am a little love this place. In the near future, I will definitely go back on this piece of land.
