Six months, actually once again came to Linzi, this is a very common inland city, looked up to see a roadside marker, was actually a number of ancient name: Heng Road, Guan Zhong Road, Yan Ying Road, Tai Road, Wenshao Road ... ... invariably reveals the former glory - ancient capital of Qi.
Linzi is the last off last winter, there is a deserted after the snow, half a day, hastily visited the martyrdom Qi Ma Hang and museums, which is familiar to two local attractions:
Xun Ma Hang - in between the old village of terraced rice paddies, traffic inconvenience, asking directions N times arrive, a small courtyard, furnished very clean and tidy. Exhibition hall inside the pit, there is a complete horse martyrdom remains 106, the completion of the discovery of the site. Owner of the tomb is the Qi Jinggong (ball and socket), life and horses, national strength, the tomb in all of martyrdom for more than 600 horses. Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses is said to be a ratio, but its popularity is far less.
Qi Museum of History - Building like a city, Hanque door is quite distinctive. Exquisite furnishings museum, heritage variety, of course, tours of the must dos. Surprise is this: Linzi through the North Xin culture, Dawenkou Culture, Longshan Culture, after the establishment of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Jiang Shang Feng Qi, was to create a "vast wind" of the Qi culture, than I thought it would be long.
This time again, time is too early to call on Jiang Tai-gong Temple before it:
A bit run-down of the arch. Cinei empty No, only the purple vines open excellent, lively throughout the garden. The yard there is a fan-shaped pavilion stairs, climb, startled a group of birds ... ... great-grandfather's statue is very simple, the walls are paintings stories, including the great-grandfather fishing:) backyard is a great-grandfather's grave attire, surrounded by green trees, grass green color, quiet you can hear the wind singing.
Qi, great-grandfather's fiefdoms, ginger, the old name, and has since extended out 46 names, including the Confucius family name, so next to the Confucius Temple ancestors. Heard that not long ago Ching Ming Festival, and South Korea have come to worship groups, mostly descendants the surname Jiang.
Go out, the next to the Gods Palace has been converted into an entertainment center photo, business seems to have failed booming.
A taxi to the ancient chariot Museum, suburban, surrounded by farmland, and only repair a very impressive museum, displaying the evolution of ancient Chinese chariot history, artifacts and informative, showrooms also very ambitious, gorgeous must have a somewhat unexpected. Perhaps the most interesting of course, the ancient chariot was unearthed, it seems that year traveling martyrdom are common, and horses estimated to be stunned or drunk after the burial, and neatly arranged, there is no signs of struggle. Museums around the green well, out is noon, very hot, and then I had 31 degrees of the ~ ~ ~ ~ flower beds inside the peony in full bloom, but lost in the hot sun Shui Ling, Danian: (
And there were no buses outside the museum, take a long long way to the side of the road waiting for a train, both sides are farmland, load carts roaring, three motorcycles pulled over the goods, the differences between the drivers look at me, strange Some will be here ~~~~~~~~` how fast 20 minutes, and did not see a taxi, even sitting one of the car are almost invisible, I alone stand in the roadside dust, feeling has been almost completely sun dried , an abandoned desolation rise in my heart ... ...
Has finally come to a Pakistani, etc., inquire about how to get to the Confucius Wenshao Department, conductor I do not know, asked: "What do you do? Go there to do?" - Enough to create misunderstandings! Explained that a half-day, the driver seemed to finally realized: "You are to travel! May be nothing there!" Location is very clear that he did not tell me off at a fork in the road, changing to continue to inquire about 28 road car. So at the roadside waiting for a train, continue to be dry, depressed: (on the 28 road, the driver has the same cross-examined me again, and then parked in a village crossroads, next to the sign: Confucius Wenshao at the north. The driver told me that the no through road bus, and went a long way off once again asked: "Do you still go to it?" And then I surprise people in a car while under the sympathetic eyes of the car! in the end how far? asked roadside car repair The Master, master very surprised: "You go there to do? a breaking yard, unoccupied, nothing!" sound out nothing to offer, head to see a manned taxi, not Guannameduo, and do not want to Roadside longer be air-dried, was determined to reach out stopped the driver to send me to Wenshao office. the driver was surprised, but a nod to the passengers, or so I went to the back seat of vehicles in the village of terraced rice paddies where the shuttle, stopping at next to a plaster, both strange asked me to come here to do - Well, I came here on the so unusual Mody?
Is just a small hospital, 10 of several square meters, the face of the wall lettering: "Confucius Wenshao Office" Shao tone, elegance of sound, smell of Confucius, in March I do not know meat. I am in the desolate courtyard hear Shao sound, only the mottled sunlight midday, only the trees faintly ups and downs of birds, and only leaves a broken foot ring ... ...
By the roadside waiting for a long time, same old tactics, the three men stopped a taxi, the three Shandong guy a look of surprise, but still promised to send me to a stone hall, to continue shuttle between the village and stopped at a open ground. Hall door closed, can not open? One passenger said that no problem, call me opened the door and saw an old man stuck his head under the door opened and learned that I would like to visit, the first lock of a big German shepherds, come open the door ticket sales. Small yard, Ziteng Hua opened downtown. A man pacing, see stone of Canbei, Mumen, Buddha ... ... the tomb, the grave keeper outside the beast, who is almost high, a bit shabby, I find the ferocious in helping to pass through the neck felt vaguely Department has dense cold, it is necessary is not a bright midday sun, such as dilapidated courtyard inside the Huang Yuan Liao Zhai. An independent central courtyard statues were coated high red cloth, only the head of the statue is caught outside, a bit weird funny. Do not want to stay here a long time, left quietly. Not have a car, walking in the village, the tall plane trees scattered in others, full of lavender may open a tung blossom, and the light aroma in the air released into the atmosphere - Farewell, Qi city!
Postscript: Qi Ling Qi is the ancient town, in the Linzi Countryside (city 20 minutes by car), spots a lot, mostly scattered in the village of terraced rice paddies, the traffic is very inconvenient, and no overall planning and advocacy, as the tomb of three with disabilities (two peach kill three a disability allusions), constant public and Taiwan, not easy to find, did not go. When every one step Zhouzhuang are being packaged to sell for money, when former glory Qi Linzi been forgotten among the terraced rice paddies, I went to the place where many locals have never been or even heard of ... ... do not know The silence in the end means.
Still fascinated by this piece of land on the profound historical, toil a good impression, Tian Ji's horse ... ... the many allusions in this place who are interested can look at: http://www.qidu.net/Article_Show2.asp?ArticleID=448
