Asian Tour (1) [Author: Abies]
Gold E-chuan Trinidad Jiangling half-day tour is also
There are three days away from the National Day in 2002, I began to rush Fengming companions, such as march-like journey. In order to finally see a rise in the water before the Three Gorges, our plan is to first take a train to Wuhan from Wuhan to Yichang way, take the water ferry ride from Yichang to Chongqing, and then take the long-distance bus to Chengdu, with the prior agreement of the tour rendezvous ; October 1 to ensure a smooth traveling Southwest Sichuan is known as "The Last Shangri-La" in Inagi Aden. As my companion prepared fully booked already call these days accommodation and tickets, we are calm and orderly and efficiently to complete all plans.
Although the time constraints, we do not forget the first day of that half-day Wuchang inside tour were widely known since the ancient poetry of the Yellow Crane Tower and the 1911 Revolution had just changed its name to the museum's "E Army Dudufu." Yellow Crane Tower is located in the south bank of the shore of the Yangtze River, snakes and mountain top (a small slope only). Before and after "air swallowing Yunmeng", "Chutian monastery is surrounded by" and a plaque. That every day, with overcast, standing on top of Yuanwang river Enpa Yellow Crane Tower, in addition to straight Wuhan Ebashi and can be faintly identified in the Yangtze River water, is mixed scattered eyeful of the new building and old buildings, not quite sure where there Hanyang tree, Where is the Parrot Island. Better than 6 years ago, I had a boat on the river even more excited when you see the house. Downstairs a couplet Daoshi quite magnificent: Shuangqi west, the clouds disperse to shake heaven and earth; the drain, the waves washed past and present depression. I can not help but secretly Chant it several times.
During a visit to "E Army Dudufu," we just met a guide is to explain the historical origins of a director, and we listened for a while to follow up immediately. This allows us to know Li to "riding a tiger," the story. While the 1911 Revolution had caused a sensation, localized in the Wuchang Uprising of history there are still some "pull the banner, do tiger" elements. Although the brave rebels then seized power, it seems that their own commander rank is small, hard-fu public, so obstinately muddle-headed neutral Li pulled out the original commander (which is a brigade?) Be placed under house arrest in the tiger Account of closed-door hard think of it three days later that "the worth Wu Nai" manner as the Governor of the Revolutionary Army, Hubei army. Undergone a number of Rapid Change, he naturally been carried to the "Republic of China president," the throne. This "E Army Dudufu" preserve the architectural structure of the original year (except for a small portion of the roof had been destroyed Japanese), European style, graceful. After so many years building the surface is also bright and clean as new, I was surprised.
I do not know what the water taste, Changsha, Wuchang fish is simply extremely delicious. This is what I and Fengming out after the 1911 Revolution Museum, a small shop nearby to enjoy lunch consensus. A delicious steamed Wuchang fish tender and succulent, plump extremely quickly became a skeleton. This is my current trips the three delicious eating fish (Wuchang, Hubei, Chongqing, boiled fish, fish without scales Litang) one. It let me know: Wuchang Wuchang fish, or to go to eat. Chiba lunch, hurriedly boarded a bus sent to Yichang to nearly dusk when Yichang. And so on to find the phone agreed CTS hair too l Miss won the first class the next day sent to Chongqing, hydrofoil ferry the spacecraft was then arranged into the hostels of the room, the sky is already dark.
On this evening I've never been to the small town of Riverside and I decided to look around here Fengming famous Gezhouba. The air is very Relax, I have found our services of the hotels including the young lady, female passenger buses, including, where beauty is everywhere. (This feeling was back when the taxi driver were right. He said, out of Yichang beauty since ancient times. Wang Zhaojun is this part of the people.) In the night we met Gezhouba locks. See lock them released water is very spectacular. My companion had not seen, and I have seen on board once, but the end a little "does not know the true face-off vessel, just because the body in this boat."
The result of patient waiting, we see a lock where seven or eight ship Guozha Sheung Shui, the whole process. I thought that could see river water into the gate like Surprisingly, until the water level has been elevated, at the foot dam at the bottom bore a voice on the slate, that the lower the little people on board within a few minutes closer to our altitude, realized that the dam at the end of drainage is very effective, can not see a little boat over rapids.
6:50 the next morning, we boarded a Sichuan enables us to quickly advance the hydrofoil craft. To more than 1,300 years, Chongqing Waterway. Travel nearly 12 hours. Be described as "a thousand miles Jiangling half-day also." Can also visit the Three Gorges scenery along the way, it really pleasant. We both entered the Funakura to put away luggage, almost did not stay in their seats on the forward flank of the observation Funakura mouth, desire to occupy the best viewing position. This spacecraft is sealed around the warehouse. Although the connections between air, but there are walls Dangzhao, nothing can not see. After the warehouse at the end of the only places where the deck is sound of water hammer Yang, splashed. Only flanking this window can also use a little limited field of vision view the real world. North Korea speech Yichang hazy sun, crossed bridges water and cast nets of boats, the spacecraft fast driving on the wide river surface, along the way and enjoyed a landscape scroll, the air moist and comfortable, feel especially comfortable. Cross-strait strange and beautiful rock, beautiful mountains and rivers; green hidden in the mountain, chic ancient building; river between the passenger, the size of the tugs, all views have been one after another, thrown, no time to fine-identified; can be described as "cross-strait ape sound fruitless searching , light boat passed thousand layers of mountains. "
Photography is very difficult, as long as his head a little stuck window, and hears the wind kick into gear the sound of the wind anxious face, eyes can not be blown wide open. Chill harder and harder to stand for a long time.
Few guests the same boat as we do, they are mostly smoke when gathered here. But there are exceptions: Some people hold the camera very quickly came to the window, look at King's people gather more. I asked Fengming, just to see what scene it? She said that seeing huanglinmiao, the Three Gorges dam are also met. "Three Gorges Dam?" I secretly surprised, I have always focused on the right side of the river, how can a little bit not seen it? In my experience, 6 years ago, it should not arrived yet - indeed, the fact that she saw only a modest hill on what slogans. In front of the channel on the opposite side of the river before the dam into a neat extension. Poly people are beginning to pay attention to the front view, hand-held cameras to begin shooting people. This is sandouping the Three Gorges construction site. Spacecraft flying close to the embankment, from rock and gravel piled embankment site looks like the foundation and materials in stock market. Soon it finally appeared in front of the end of the curved stone wall stands tall, thick stone walls Congjiang the unexpected into the sky, the spacecraft suddenly this turns, around the walls, leaving behind its majestic tall The silhouette; and an even higher into the walls of the giant lock is also an instant vision of a positive close. "More Xijiang Li Shek Pik, truncated Wushan cloud and rain." - Predictions become a reality right there in front! I asked Fengming: "and you just said, 'dam' like than how?" She laughs: "That's What kind of dam ah, is simply a small fence."
Because no one talks, I do not know when to pass by Xiling Gorge of the "art of war sword", "Ma bovine lung" Gap, Xiangxi, Zigui Zhaojun's hometown of Qu Yuan, and did not see a little shadow, a ship passed witch inattentive Gap. Wushan Goddess Peak 12 Peak is only showing some of the tall and proud. A depression on the smooth stone walls engraved the "Kong Ming monument" flashing by. (Legend of Kong Ming had written here, "heavy rock peaks Wu Gorge," the sixth.) Turned hill angle, the light scattering Hui, shuttling between the layers of mountains, really very good-looking. My companion praised the unique atmosphere from here; I also like Wushan broad, beautiful, nature reveals a bit of mystery. The Qutangxia of Kuimen is another style - doing my A crowded feeling Duolu hegemony born. Kuimen I missed the last boat scene, while the current carefully waiting for, but which allow closer look: I saw a dark wall, pressure wall straight over, Fengming address him with the words above are often billed as looked, it was " Kuimen the world hung lightly over the vessel "and other characters, just to be clear to gallop while the ship has already passed.
A short span of three and a half hours on the boat had Baidicheng put an end to the Three Gorges tour. The remaining water is the side of a break while browsing, hurry hurry. Sometimes ship some of the shallow waves. Along more than a simple local and citrus, and a great mountain with many palm growth. Be able to see much of a special scene, we see man-made hill Fengdu "big Kido," the White Crane Ridge and Wujiang Fuling bustling mountain shore. Yi Chuang storage lap, staring Taotao endless river, it is thought volt reverie. Under the sunset evening hours, the red light and shadow in the river surface fluctuations, flow; river, boat, or an oasis of middle of the river from time to time in its shrouded under the waves with the bright beautiful evening scene composed of a Road. Fengming frantically to catch the sunset at this time, the footprints of a Jumbo抢拍sunset "chao." Wanted to so fast the speed of light is also dark, but no matter how good results can shoot, never thought that we were staying the night in Chongqing, Xian House Hotel will be under the floor, a wedding photography, these chao are digital printing was also, as she threw a wedding Like beautiful scene in, I was surprised to see how more than okay.
Dusk arrived in Chongqing, carrying a bulging backpack abandoned boat landing. Simple Bang Bang Army to see us, and we would like to cotton have not been successful. Stay overnight in the early evening light bright mountain, in a small alleys where they eat an authentic boiled hemp has fragrant fish. (Which proved, boiled fish, or to go to Chongqing to eat.)
Our hotel in the mountain heart of the city. Here are my relatives-di-tert, but look at the late hour the next day to be anxious to hurry, they abandoned the "late-night visit." A night without words.
September 30 morning, we drove luxury bus from Chongqing, and drove 5 hours to Chengdu, on time and completed a three-day mission.
