Jiangnan sketches of the two: the details of Zhenjiang
Of Zhenjiang, I has always entertained a special feeling, because for the first time five years ago, settled in the south, that is, a night of misty rain came to Zhenjiang, and that time, I spent 24 hours, but was diverted to Changzhou. But it is less than 24 hours of Zhenjiang that trip made me remember the details of the Zhenjiang - through the window, Kanlou light rain outside the drift of the Metasequoia, that is the first time I saw Metasequoia, tall, tall and straight, in the trace of a pretty spring rain. I also came to Zhenjiang one seems to be called Riverside Village, the fair trade market to see if those vendors hawking. Perhaps because of all initial contact, it's a deep impression, though past five years, but still echoes in my mind.
March 28, could have chosen to ride car, but I finally chose the train, the train did not expect delays - this seems to be Chinese characteristics, not late not called a train - and finally to the Zhenjiang, it is already approaching 20:00 a. A short 40-minute train trip, a neighbor's Anhui Province were 50 away, while drinking while about the differences and the local people's good or bad, but toward the opposite a woman talking about Shanghai in Shanghai's "stingy", The woman enough to create misunderstandings, everyone had no choice but follow the big laugh. Speaking of corruption, Anhui, gas should not fight a guy come to the police station said a good for nothing. See that they are working in Shanghai or Wenzhou, Anhui, as a labor-exporting province, indeed the construction of the country has made tremendous contributions to their own and thus also gradually become rich together, but maybe no one will know the bitterness of migrant workers, right? What happened to them how cruel, and we imagine it?
In Zhenjiang Jingjiang Hotel before noon, a slide shoe had shown up at the spot a dollar once, and Chengdu, a price. I was sitting on an early teen-year-old boy in front, side edge, and his shoe-shining accosted and found that adolescents from Henan Zhoukou home, have three children, he is the boss left home in Zhenjiang has been more than six months. When I asked him if he was arrested chased out of date, he said quietly, "grasp it," just things confiscated, people are not how, but he said, "hated those urban management." In Chengdu, I once made the same question to a shoe of the young woman, she answered that yes, "was arrested over", but also detained a few days, "not to the meat." Cat and mouse game, in every corner of our cities are staged, Zhenjiang is no exception. Write here, think of Yu there is the latest one April 1, "Southern Weekend" on the article entitled "Why let the city challenges humanity," he said, is the ban on begging, and for them to pass their days by shoeshine people, do they not so? People of the city from the standpoint of their own in order to "city" on the right edge of the crowd to drive away, and should not be a civilized society should move bar.
I am trying to find the mark of five years ago, but really looking for when it found that to restore the copy is almost impossible. Zhenjiang streets everywhere just Tulv of the Indus, Metasequoia it, I've got no one had seen, which may be the same as I did not like last time into the roadway where relevant, it may and I come up from as early as the bar for a month.
Zhenjiang known as hills, which means the three mountains were lying in Jinshan and North Gushan, are located in the north of the city next to the Yangtze River and its Neijiang. I first select the center of the city by the big city, North Road, 4-way car port terminal shan park directly. Said to be lying in a matter of fact, only the Yangtze River Neijiang on a small island, 25 yuan ticket includes round-trip about 10 minutes from the ferry. In the ferry, I met one of the Zhenjiang city to buy food at a restaurant purchases peninjau workers, pushing the bicycle Ins and Outs are a variety of vegetables. Approaching 40-year-old man appeared, he let me guess the age, I said 28, 9 bar, he smiled and told me his 32-year-old. His home in Lianyungang, say may be the local dialect, and I need to be carefully distinguished in order to understand, but he simply could not speak Mandarin. Men have three children of kids do not fine? When I heard my question, his words were full of the local government some people's anger - "Now the cadres are corrupt," I was surprised that he would say these words, he said, to a fine they hiding, and now, children and his wife were home, he himself came to Zhenjiang for someone else to buy food. When he learned that I am from the northeast, he said, "Revitalizing the Northeast Well, Hu said the." I once again surprised at his reaction and vision, but think carefully about the China of today no longer closed in the past, namely that in the information age has also been on the 1st or even thousands of miles in 1:00, but added my surprise was even more surprised by the bar to let others .
Down the ferry, that is a very long island, the so-called Jiaoshan it wants to. There is a mountain temple, the name Dinghui Temple. In the monastery a wall, a slogan during the Spring Festival has not come off, poster reads: "religion and socialist society." I have repeatedly pondering, or understand the essence of which, the monks asked around looking for cause and what is taboo for fear of committed, were dropped. Shan is a place with history, where fighting still has a year when the British fort, and several barrel quietly on display in there, from the side of the inscription, I know where fierce fighting had taken place was Jiaoshan to guard the main gateway of Zhenjiang, Zhenjiang, where people had to resist the British invasion, which quoted the words of Engels to the effect that "If the people can be as brave as the Zhenjiang, the aggressors will not do whatever they want." I have always been a lack of memory of historical anecdotes, so just remember the one about, only know that there had been a war, looking at those historical relic, can only look back to their own imagination about the flames of war once. Peninjau top of a tower, the climbing, I went to the back of the beach, walked near to know that this is a reed, the reed-off last year's crop was also cut into the existence of discrete lying down, and some shoots have been issued. Suddenly several more flap of the ring, I thought it was a snake appeared and quickly see that it is running only a few a few birds flew out from the bushes.
From Jiaoshan out of the limited time available, I chose the Jinshan, "Shuimanjinshan" story attracted me to have to see what happens. Jinshan does not seem to Jiaoshan large, expensive tickets than the latter doubled. Jinshan Behind White Snake mural sculpture, next to a hole in a letter to "Bailong Dong", indicates that which is said to have direct access to West Lake, Hangzhou. In which the Douzhuan after a lap left in a hurry, only to "this one Tour" bar, in addition, can do? The hands of a lot of visitors have bought incense, facing a variety of statues burned incense and bowed, expressing a kind of piety. Which I always do not have this habit of the past few years gone through a lot of monasteries, seen countless statues of Buddha, but do not burn incense precedent, because I do not know why, I do not know if the burning incense is the pursuit of what but with such a strange attitude to burn incense and kowtow, I worry that even more is the Buddha's irreverent, so, since they failed to escape convention, it was not to bar the desecration of shrines.
Jinshan did not give me too much of an impression - in addition to taking a few King took a few pictures - hand, from the city center 2-way car to take the road of Jinshan I have strong feelings about. The first bus across the road called the Great West Road, which is an antique road, narrow, and even some run-down, roads are thick on both sides of the Indus, near the downtown area are mostly selling curtain fabrics, but then that is more private homes or occasionally shop. The fate of this old house in the future would happen then? I am a bit worried about them actually faint. Or, Chengdu, and a similar Red Star Zhenjiang Great West Road, on both sides is also a Chinese parasol trees and old one, but the past of Red Star Road already gone, just four years of my life in order to transform the city name be removed, widened, Big West will also go the same path? Protection and development, as we are here always seem mutually exclusive, while we can not ignore the residents living in the old one where the idea. Reading April 2 of the Jinling Evening News, Nanjing, the root of the old South Gate East Gate in the West, and as newspaper reports said, the old West Gate, where in addition the history of nothing: the walk three lanes have a public side, three generations of 6 people crowded into 24 square-meter house, a former residence of celebrities living in households with out a big truth: "Even the best of the heritage not as a Liangshiyiting comfortable to me."
Zhenjiang is a city rich in history, accumulated bar, such as its street name: Dong Wu Road, Tai Road. Only, Zhenjiang I feel, more details are. Five years ago, are those high-income buildings Metasequoia, five years later, the old streets, ancient houses, is a fan of Jingkou hotel duck blood soup, soup packets, is a downtown shoeshine Henan juveniles, as well as in the Silver Island on for the hotel to buy food from Lianyungang ultrasonic father ......
Good-bye to details of the Zhenjiang, I have a boat north, the next stop, that is what they have infinite yearning of Yangzhou.
