Travels Zhujiajiao town had heard that many restaurants Zhujiajiao town, where "Jiangnan first restaurant," said to have 280 years of history, because when the Qing Emperor Qianlong's southern tour in this famous riverside tea. To this end, I am "51" before braving the intensifying of the "non-inflammatory" in insurance, early in the morning to spend half a day sightseeing in the ancient town of Zhujiajiao.
At 4 am to go out to the Western Bus Station Wuzhong sit Zhujiajiao 5:00 to go in the first shuttle, this time has been light, because it is cold, he drove very slowly. Stopping along the way pick-up, many of them are back bag, move "spear" the fish will. Car out of the outer ring is already overcrowded and most of which is to Qingpu Town, so the car take State Road 318, through the Qingpu New City, arriving passengers Qingpu Town, after even my inside were two passengers. 6:30, bus to terminal Zhujiajiao town, I found off Old Street, that the North Street and started wandering.
North Street, also known as "first-line Street", more than 400 years of history, is the best preserved Ming and Qing Dynasties South First Street building. For thousands of years, the cloth industry, the rice markets, wine is, restaurants, banking house, pawn, etc. converge changjie is town bustling commercial center, known as "Long Street three years, the shop 1000," the embryo of modern capitalism can be seen here. North Street, the river walk, visual straight-line distance does not exceed fifty or sixty meters, giving a treacherous winding paths of deep feeling. Narrow Street Department, Kuan Jin 2 meters, Kaixuan to grip, the immediate sky thin strip of sky, looking like "heaven seems to be endless edge", is typical of Ming and Qing Dynasty Ancient Street.
As early as the shop door shut most of row. Suddenly a pedestrian stepping on the stone road tick sound Youyuanerjin indole; Not far away, streets are emerging a briquette stove smoke, Xu is the owner did not properly sealed overnight; also have cleaners to clean the toilets are being placed back to the residents doorstep. Gaze, the look met the dream of "Jiangnan first tea house."
Restaurant is on the second floor. Going House to rely on imports of the wall is a huge platform close to the tiles, stocked with dozens of molded case of the vacuum bottle, water vapor around in large liters of boiling 4 weeks. The restaurants are voices, has long been a non-empty seats to sit. Boss to find a square stool, called a table nearby patrons scene from simply moving bits, let me sit down. I want a glass of the most expensive, the ternary green tea, cigarettes, lighters placed on the table, to be firmly secured, and then lit cigarette around the stitch through the smoke to observe the teahouse from the patrons and the use of the tea.
Look at the patrons. Rhetoric, the ear to listen, and Everywhere you looked up, and pull the ear grasping gills, and contemplative silence, and Zhengnao endless. My table: the left is the smoke gray Duijinzhongzhuang, nowadays a rare tie-climbing, wearing a Monochoria Wool Cap; opposite Waizhe is beige zipper-shirt, open skirts open inside the same black strip sweater; his left sat the card is the tunic, was suffused with a little Silky Zhongshan collar, it is wow is my side of the hat, tall chimneys, the wide hat, is Panama hat?
Another view of tea. Variety, it gives me such a glass cup, useful attached to a small Chazhong porcelain teapot, there are held enamel mug, there are grip loquat plaster bottle, there are holding warm cups, stainless steel travel mug, there are cover, no cover, and slender, the Unit, and own, and tea, and ... may be that is not seen with the Zi Shahu.
At this point there are women carrying a shoe box came, and constantly asked repeatedly invited the shoe, another woman came trafficking, also back a packet, but the magic come like a few electronic wall clock, electric shavers, lighters , calculator, belt, filled with a table.
Half-past eight, and one after another with patrons entering and leaving, but this is out and more into less, and I sat an hour or a. Get up with the boss to fight it out the door and say hello. At this time street-level has been excited, but not many foreign visitors, just a good time is shopping. I am looking for several characteristics, shop, hang around the bridge of Letting Them Go. Features shops, one Heng Ge Health dumplings shop, located in North Street, No. 308, there are a hundred years of history. -Headed lady, now 85-year-old, gray-haired, agile hands and feet. Chestnut Dumplings her every two dollars more expensive than other shops, but her dumplings to pick chestnuts and the finest of meat, cakes and sweet chestnut glutinous, meat fat and not greasy, tie tight, Component feet, so business is good, is obvious. Second, Han Dalong pickles shop, is also a centuries-old font, breakfast eat Paofan of Shanghai people are buying it in the bottles. Letting Them bridge is Zhujiajiao landmark, which was built in the Ming Dynasty Longqing five years, that in 1571, was one grudges against the alms of the power plot is built fifteen years, while Qiaotu built Fangsheng Chi, Letting Them Pavilion. Letting Them bridge is 72 meters long, wide and 5 meters, 7.4 meters high arch of the five-hole, which a long, such as belt, shaped like a rainbow, "First Jiangnan Bridge" well-deserved. I am making: a total of 60 bridges unilateral, pre-20 for each level of about 30 cm in a single block, after the 40 pairs for each level paved stone blocks.
North Street, stroll a few back and forth, thus fast 11 minutes, and I get on to the Pakistani town of Qingpu and then take to the city long-distance car, returned home on time 13:00.
April 30, 2003 grass in mind that May 12 be changed.
