2003.10.24 Friday clear lack of people trapped car, a great feel sleep dawn. 7:00 is the phone rang alarm time, pulled me from sleep. Yi Gulu to get up, quick wash is completed, to go out looking for breakfast food.
Out the hotel door to a crossroads, a temporary food stalls are busy with the business. I have found a seat to sit down, take a look at early species and found that porridge, there are rice rolls, egg and so on. I order a "medicinal herbs pork porridge," and then asked for a two eggs, a few mouthfuls of the Xia Du. Finished foot the bill, as long as 1.5 yuan, really inexpensive.
7:30, carrying a bicycle down the stairs, bid farewell to the guys hotel began Sheung.
Through the streets, turn on the national highway. Southward along the national highway, dozens of minutes later, the ride on the junction of Foshan and Zhongshan to River as the boundary, a bridge connected. I rushed into the bridge, the bridge under the bridge across the road to see a welcome card "Zhongshan City People's welcomes you."
Under the bridge is the Dongfeng Town, Zhongshan City. Although only one of the fence, Shunde, Shunde, but here stripped of noise, more of a quiet village. Roadside village still retains some of the old house, a roadside field where some of the women are crafts. Was riding, the streets are the middle group of people attracted my attention. I saw a group of men and women are gathered in the flower bed in the middle of the road quarantine zone, in the middle put a small table, the table seems to put a number of offerings, some of whom were prayed, not knowing which way is to worship the gods?
After a Dongfeng town, dozens of minutes later to Xiaolan. Although the town is called "Siu Lam" style to a little bit not "small." The other did not say just "Siu Lam Station" of the scale, more than a number of cities and counties of the station.
Xiaolan Town, country houses in the highway on the roof, I also discovered there was "Siu Lam ship" large-scale billboards, really do not know if the ship or just a production ship production parts? If the production of the ship, which can be Zhengou Xiaolan cattle.
Xiaolan Town car ride, I Fangmanjusu, parking on the roadside in a village a short break. Backpack out from the recording pen button to play "Chinese folk music," while listening to music carts Sheung.
Also riding for an hour, had come to the outskirts of Zhongshan City. Behind the feeling more and more heavy, and then stopped his car off his backpack, the backpack of books, etc. Some of the items transferred to the satchel, the lightly armed Sheung.
9:45. I already went to Sun Yat-sen coach station. From 105 State Road and turn left, you come to the Shanxi Road - Fu Road. Fuhua Road 1 into the feel is very comfortable feeling. Just now on the road all the way the bike exhaust smoke, especially riding on the bridge at the junction of Zhongshan, Foshan, was just a seriously overloaded truck sprayed the immense Black, now see is a clean roads and eyeful The green, sucked the clean oxygen, Zhongshan City, exceptionally good first impression.
Fu Road, is not the characteristics of its six-lane wide, but in contrast to its small car under the loose. The huge Avenue, only a few more car in the running, I could not help but join the ranks of Mercedes-Benz.
Fu Road, eastbound along the way, they entered the Zhongshan city. The urban area is very clean, hardly any litter on the ground, the street on both sides of the building also quite clean and relaxed. Zhongshan buses are new styles, clean and spacious, through the bus glass, small passenger car, there are seats. Can not help but sigh: Zhongshan people living comfortable!
After a few traffic lights appeared in front of a bridge. The bridge is very modest at first glance, saw the introduction of legislation bridge card, only to find the characteristics of this bridge. The original bridge is a bridge, a specific time of day the bridge will be lifted! No wonder the bridge is a steel plate, the bridge two have a big column, cable pulling each side of the bridge. During the day down the bridge at night on the lifting bridge. This bridge is only seen on television, with capabilities similar to Tower Bridge, the domestic never seen a similar bridge. Today, I actually did not expect to see in Zhongshan is really lucky!
Over the bridge, head to see "Welcome to the Walking Street" signs. Big foot blocks stood Monument: "Sun Yat-sen Road Pedestrian Street of cultural tourism." Stone next to a bronze sculpture of Sun Yat-sen was about to get on rickshaw. From the blocks look inside to see, walking Jie Liangbian are Lingnan arcaded buildings, occasional spire of Western architectural highlights.
Was about to visit a nearby line of carts progress, an avenue of security stopped me: vehicular entry! Is doubt, the blocks to see signs that read announcement: 8 am to 11 points, 3 pm to 5 o'clock in the evening from 7 am to 9 am ... ... to prohibit passage of vehicles. I see! Out cell phone to see a little more time before 10 o'clock and decided to first go to see Hing middle - a symbol of the landscape, Zhongshan Road.
In the old city where the streets turn more than a dozen curved, eyes suddenly see the light, Hing middle up. Two rows of palm trees straight road neatly lined up in the middle of a boundless at the end. Palm trees are three lanes on each side, and then the tree next to the tree-lined bike paths, bike lanes and then yes, then the tree is a tree-lined sidewalks, then yes sidewalks, Avenue of the most parks and flower beds next to the street lawn, the whole middle-hing, has been covered by trees, cycling in which the feeling of entering the green world. Xing middle of the southern tip of a small slope, hill slope, a ten-storey building overlooking the front-hing middle, Qiyubufan. See map, the original of the building is the main academic building, Zhongshan University. Zhongshan University really have a good place.
So beautiful, so I have a little intoxicated. On the sidewalk, I found a seat to sit down and quietly enjoy the scenery, Zhongshan people on the street.
10:40, and almost ready to go to West of the Sun Yat-sen. For more viewing Zhongshan face of the city, and my current along the Bo Yuan Road, National Road, the national road cycling, and so I went to Sun Yat-sen Road pedestrian street Dong Jiekou when only a thin 11-point away from the 2 minutes.
I stopped and waited in blocks of 2 minutes, 11 o'clock came, the security began to be released. I find it a pleasure to enter the pedestrian street carts, and slowly to appreciate both sides of the buildings and the street crowd. Just my attired and line head and those around them vary greatly along the way pedestrians are watching me, I have become a pedestrian street in one scene!
Walk inside the store selling mostly clothes, bags and so on, rarely sell travel goods, showing that the majority of customers still mainly local people. Culture and Tourism Walking Street, are now largely cater to the needs of the public's business just one street.
There are two scenic walking on the street left me with a relatively deep impression: one is the "temple under the" arch next to the building wall murals, painted before the Liberation of the city streets on a busy scene; another is " temple down "arch opposite the large trees are two artists sketching the scene to the two girls, drawing a lot of pedestrians to watch paintings hanging racks" Mao Zedong "," Sun Yat-sen, "and others, drawing quite a bit quite similar, become a pedestrian street of the "living culture." Zhongshan is a reflection of the city's history and culture; another is reflected in Zhongshan city's modern humanistic culture. As for the construction and pedestrian street trend of marketing and I personally think that the lack of local characteristics and the lack of internal culture.
Cultural tourism visit all Sun Wen Road Pedestrian Street, Zhongshan city worth a visit for all to read the. So starting straight cuihengcun - Sun Yat-sen's hometown.
Through the Civil Rights Road, Minsheng Road, Zhongshan Road hooked. Speeding along the road in Zhongshan, Zhongshan, at 12 o'clock to four. Stomach has been singing the empty city, just see on the street a fast food restaurant, decided to solve the problem of food and clothing to say.
Swallowed with a big meal, cattle drink of two bowls of potato soup, full-body strength is back. The owner asked to clear the road cuihengcun, 12:30 resumed.
Through the alley, after starting 6 Bay Road, turn left into the fraternity way. Overhead sun is hot in the afternoon hours on the road the pedestrian traffic especially scarce. Along the fraternity six roads, wide roads almost I was the only one car, if at night and you still do a bit of terror. I am the way Jishi, while in Zhongshan city in the memories of the way through the interesting name: Dr. Sun Yat-West Road, Sun Yat-sen Road, Shun Wendong Road; Zhongshan Road, Road, 3 Road, four; love all the way, Road, 3 Road, four-, five-, six-way; Citizens Road, Minsheng Road, National Road; there Xing middle and so on, many roads with the name of Sun Yat-sen related to culture in Zhongshan City, Zhongshan, had indeed been fully reflected.
Riding a big half an hour, and finally to a fast food shop owner said, "to the Po-ai Road you can see" "in Zhongshan City Chinese schools," He does have a gas station next to. However, the shop owner's too far away from the concept of point, from six-way intersection love to have at least 10 km from here, ah.
East, there are only a road, presumably to cuihengcun must go down this road. Fei Shi from the gas station and I had, but a few minutes to the Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway. From the highway to cross and jumped over several bridges, through several bridge opening, dozens of minutes later to the southern town of Lang.
To my surprise, the southern town of Lang surprise, "Zhongshan Industrial Park"! Where a full range Zhongshan city, 20 km away, do not see a small range of radiation, Zhongshan City, getting bigger to.
After a South Lang, after more than 10 minutes to cuihengcun boundaries. The name of the roadside in front of a factory or shop have a "Tsuiheng" word, you can feel the atmosphere of the hometown of Sun Yat-sen. It is the highest temperature of the day, I turn into a roadside shop for a bottle of ice tea to cool down first, and also began to calm down, inexplicable excitement.
Out of the shop a few steps away, the roadside there a gate, you look closely, the original is the mountain city - Zhongshan, China Central Television Film & Television Productions. However, this film-based visibility and awareness of Wuxi movie is quite different, and even smaller than the South China Sea Film & Television Productions.
Down the mountain are the downhill, I have almost no energetically on is the Sun Yat-sen's former residence, now the former residence of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall. Outlet on the wall far away to see the four characters written by Sun Yat-sen, "Things for the People."
Memorial Hall behind the village is cuihengcun. Memorial Hall, next to a small, Shek Mun, a letter to "cuihengcun" three characters, outside of the two stone lions on each squat. Entrance to the village is very quiet, can not see a silhouette, and Sun Yat-sen's former residence in sharp contrast. I gently cycling through the Shek Mun, Sun Yat-sen was born and raised into place.
The village's buildings are mostly two-story old brick house, is not the Lingnan region of traditional arcaded buildings, and similar to my home, Zhejiang buildings. The quiet village in particular, I am cycling through a few alleys, almost did not see anyone, and everyone had closed the door, and only under the eaves hanging clothes flapping in the wind to prove the existence of the owner. Probably the main people are busy farming the fields go, right?
Do not intend to cruise, we found a small village there is a Western-style villa, is a Gothic-style windows. Probably no longer live in the walls have been sparse, a small front garden is also covered with weeds. Villa has been estimated that this building nearly a hundred of it, do not know What is the relationship with the Sun Yat-sen? Might also like Sun Yat-sen lived in a small, right?
Villa next to as many as a preserved ancient buildings, but also the door closed. Wooden plaque hanging on the wall with the words "key cultural relics protection units, Guangdong Province, Yang Yin House," that the owner is also a great person. Nevertheless, I search my head is not too little knowledge of history, how search is also not "Yang Yin" is the name. But as he's home can be included in the key cultural relics protection units, Guangdong Province, the ranks of progenitor certainly not a small ah. I really do not know what kind of people Yang Yin yes.
Yang Yin doorstep spacious courtyard would be delighted, but also very clean. I have the car leaning Yang Yin house walls, I sat on the threshold of the door of Yang Yin to eat apples. Breeze came, fatigue Dunxiao.
Closed to 2:30, which set out. Yang Yin bid farewell to home, I have a way out of the village from another. The roadside to see Dr. Sun Yat-mentioned book, "Tsuiheng school", the students are on the playground physical education.
Climbed over a hill, through a village, appeared in front of the border checkpoints: Zhuhai Special Economic Zone under the gate checkpoints. From the bicycle and pedestrian lanes through, but I have no one to check the border pass. Look at road crossings there, all the inspection units have been removed, only a few armed police checks back and forth at random, they probably have no interest nor the time to check like me to go the non-motor Road anyone.
Turned out to be the starting former colleague put it, to the Zhuhai border card can not run because it basically does not check, even if did not do and just being found, it does not matter, we can immediately spend the money 2 do a scene. In this way, the frontier inspection station exists in name only. Turn a thought, the frontier inspection station there is simply no need for special economic zones will now pay close attention to creating attractive, with an open attitude to attract people, but absolutely should not be obstacles to restrictions on the inflow.
After a frontier inspection station, wide roads suddenly became a muddy path. Not think so, this is the special economic zones roads?! Incredible. Compared to Foshan, Zhongshan Road, Zhuhai, the way may be Zhengou "special,".
The road is very narrow and bumpy, there are bus accessible. A bus driver to drive more than my thumb when extended his appreciation to me, and I waved back to warm.
When a bus stop to another card, I stopped the bike and bus routes to see the situation. So I am pleased that the 10 bus's first stop is the next grid border station, terminal exactly Gongbei. I followed the 10-way car on the list.
Ride Jinding town, the road began to open up. Zhuhai Special Economic Zone's image slowly appear.
Passed a bus stop, but also a bus station in Zhuhai city has been ... ... the distance getting closer. After the Zhuhai International Circuit, the road side is a wide Lingdingyang. Going forward, Beijing Normal University, Zhuhai Campus, Zhuhai, South China University of Technology Campus, Zhuhai, Zhongshan University campus come one after another. After a Tangjia the town after the fork in the road on the side of the road signs read, "Qiao", on the other side is already written in the "urban" of.
4 o'clock, I went to the outskirts of Zhuhai city. Fork in the road in turn branch into two paths: a path close to the waterfront, is a couple Road, and the other a road is Meihua Road, 10 bus left the road and then follow the road until the Gongbei welcome. Couples road is a symbol of domestic well-known in Zhuhai road, today I rode a full bar. So I ride couples Rd.
Couples on the road all the way are the "World Economic Development Declaration series of activities: Zhuhai Declaration" billboards. Through the thick roadside trees, a modern coastal city unfolding ahead.
Couples are paved with long enough, I rode for half an hour before to a woman like a fish in Zhuhai. Zhuhai fish woman built on the land a prominent rock in the distance looked graceful figure, appearance is ambiguous. Women taking pictures with the fish after I turned caltrop Tsui ride to the beach soon. Beach behind is that the Zhuhai International Conference Center, last month, the notorious Japanese tour group visiting prostitutes incident took place here.
Turn right onto Stone Flower Road, then turn left into the Wing Wan Road, then go to a couple on the South. End of the road turn right, suddenly jumped out of a magnificent building - Gongbei up.
This is my first time abroad, although the destination is Macau, the hearts can not help a bit agitated, there is a little bit uneasy. Into the departure hall, take exit registration cards filled Chang, and then wait in line exit. I am a "Knight" line first attracted the attention of many people. I am pretending to be cool state ignored, in fact I am afraid the attention caused by border control officers, to me extra time to check.
Slowly followed the queues move, more than half an hour later, finally my turn. I try to install very calm and quietly hand it over to my passport and exit registration cards. Only a cursory inspection of the inspectors, they picked up the seal built a way, I cross the border! And Lianren Dai car, lucky ah.
With a large group of people who cross the border, most of them people from Macau, a small number of Mainland visitors, walked the long corridor. Corridor to the right, separated by a tall barbed-wire man, is to enter Macao Zhuhai corridor. Macao, with a large group of people swarmed through it, probably go to Zhuhai to buy food for you?
Corridor to make an inspection at another window, here is to check the health. I fill out the health card, a one-time pass smoothly. There is a small episode, when I receive health checks, a few inspectors looked at me and whispered another bike, but fortunately, the final release. Well, I finally closed out, and my colleagues before the speculation and the worries I had scotched, I have to prove you can ride with real action to be cleared. Thank goodness.
Out the border gate of the building, face descend quickly is exotic Macau: Taxis are black body white top, billboards on the word is traditional or Portuguese, the street is only two lanes on both sides of the street the building has several 10 floor, really become a city street canyon! This is the Macau of the! Although only a few steps away from Zhuhai and Macao, everything is so different!
Coarse to gnaw it, I can not help an extra careful. The sky has been dark down, more time is 6:00, Macau street lights and neon lights are all lit up. It is rush hour, the streets are all cars and light motorcycles. I was surprised that the car was left running in Macau! No wonder the cars are in the right side of the driver's seat!
There is no bike paths, street almost see a bike. I hesitated not dare ride lane and began to push forward on the sidewalk. I soon discovered that I could not even very difficult to implement, due to the pedestrian and I reverse the line, I have taken the wrong road, and I should take the street on the left of the sidewalk, where is my way.
Sky growing dark, enter the Macau has more than 10 minutes, only moving a few hundred meters. I am an anxious and decided to takes numerous, and determinedly got on Road cycling, of course, go astray in the left lane by riding.
Macau strange road names, most of them come Portuguese transliteration of names, names of long and difficult to read. Street twists and turns, almost no positive things to or are in north-south streets. I had been in accordance with the road map to the South Riding, soon even I myself not quite sure where to ride on, and also confuse a specific direction. You want to look for signs to determine the position, half could not find where the road signs. Arbitrary riding a pass, I lost. See the intersection with the sale kiosks, decided to help women who reported selling.
Mandarin was about to exit, when suddenly remembered the people of Macao are basically only know how to understand Cantonese, Mandarin, Cantonese, so I switched, and regardless of whether the statement accurate, the tongue-twisting asked her about her current position and driving directions. She does not even know the location! Accurate to say that she can not find on the map where we stand! Fortunately, next to a buy a newspaper for women, appears to be some knowledgeable people, eager to come and help. Together on the map to find, finally found the current location of the original garden at the Yuexiu. She told me that as long as the major road along the Ya-Lim's visit to go straight, turn right into the store bird bais, Main Road, then south has been riding one can proceed to Avenida da Praia Grande. I immediately followed suit to "see the force" put away after the maps ready to go. She was also concerned, saying: "South Bay is very far away from here, oh." "A mere trifle, and I rode from Guangzhou, Macau, and this way be regarded as a drizzle."
Soon, I'll ride on the store bird bais, the southern end of Main Road. Macau is indeed very small, the map looks old and a long taxi many birds bais Main Road, the actual length of less than 1 km. Asked the passers-by through the puddles Mei Street, home spicy Church Street, John IV, Main Road, by Yan Huang Zi Grand street. Felt in next to the Metropole Hotel, and they still do not see the hotel signs. Asked passers-by, he seems very strange that I ask for directions, telling me that only go forward 10 meters turn left again on to the Kyoto Hotel. Oh, I was in the door edge, and really "did not know there is Kyoto" ah.
Walk 10 meters, turn left, Kyoto hotel is great for me flashing neon lights. Finally found the destination. Through the Avenida da Praia Grande, I bike to promote the Kyoto directly to the hotel lobby, the crowd gathered in the lobby to find Mr. Lin Yuxin - this seminar contact the Macau side, I finally find the organizations.
The hotel has no dedicated place to stop a bike, the door Tong guide me to bike to the middle of the road stopped under the trees. I parked the car and took on behalf of the luggage to the room, time is 7 o'clock. Hurry hurry washed my face, clothes do not change down to the restaurant directly.
Restaurant clamor to participate in the seminar representatives have been in attendance. Fortunately, dinner has not yet started, although the party than the scheduled time of 6:30 late for half an hour, I successfully catch the banquet. Really should be an old saying in China: "catch up early and drive better than the clever."
7:15. Welcome dinner started. First up is a pig - roasted suckling pig. Marveled at the sound of delegates, a dish taken down, but also dish up the last up the desserts and fruit. Down authentic Cantonese meal, guests are wine eat enough vegetables satisfaction brighter chat off from God, I began to tell the story of the way and win a lot of the audience.
After dinner, go shopping in the majority of delegates. I would return to the room a good cleaning of a hot bath, then soak all the way sweat pants hastened to wash the clothes.
More than 10 points, everything is settled, and Shenzhen's roommate was not back. I put on clean underwear, walked beside the seaside hotel Chuichui sea breeze and enjoy the enjoy the night view of Macau. Accidentally pulled out a cell phone, as many as the signal! Must be made over mobile signals in Zhuhai! Separated from the other side of a river is the town of Zhuhai, Wan Chai.
Call as far away as Beijing's girlfriend's phone, even talked at once. Simple talk me through the day and soon had more than a dozen minutes. Do not know if regarded as an international call? Should be considered in Zhuhai roaming phone, right? !
