People in the mountains yearn for the sea, and children by the sea fall in love with mountains.
In the summer twilight, as the hosts of Jinjiang people, we devoted all our enthusiasm and accompanied the guests from Tingjiang to surf in Jinsha Bay.
We have long been used to the vastness of the sea, but we are infatuated with Hakkas from mountainous areas. I seem to be infected by the excitement of watching them take off their shoes and step on the sand waves from a distance.
The ingenious poetry dinner ended in the enthusiastic guessing of the guests, and those carefully compiled riddles were collected by the guests as treasures.
When we set out from Jinjiang to Changting, my heart was still fluctuating on that night of constant laughter.
Sitting on the bus, the clear and clean sky outside the window immediately attracted me deeply.
The sky in Changting is particularly high, and clouds cover nearly half of the sky, so that every time I look up, I always have the illusion of blue clouds during the day. Who can say not? In Jinjiang, you will always see blue sky and white clouds. Clouds are very disciplined, no matter how they change, they will not block the elegance of the sky. But here, you can often see a large cloud floating in the wind, which just steals the limelight from the sky.
Blue sky and white clouds, this is my first impression here.
Walking into Tingjiang National Wetland Park, the huge Yangmei at the gate became the object of our scrambling to take pictures. This is a bayberry tree that is more than two people tall. Isn't the red pimple all over our body our favorite waxberry meat? That thin green hat looks attractive and delicious on your head. Unfortunately, you can only look at it from a distance, but you can't taste it.
China Yangmei Museum is located here. Walking into the museum, you can learn about the morphological characteristics, growing environment, historical origin and distribution of Myrica rubra in China from beginning to end. A wide variety of bayberry has opened our eyes. I have seen many bayberries in southern Fujian, and I know there are black bayberries and white bayberries here. Myrica rubra with different sizes and colors can be seen in detail here. It's a pity that we came at a bad time, so we can only look at the red bayberry in the picture to quench our thirst.
Why is Yangmei especially popular here? It turns out that this is related to its growing environment and Changting's unique geographical environment. Sanzhou used to be a barren mountain. The roots of Myrica rubra can attract and utilize natural ammonia to grow in the barren mountain, and Myrica rubra can also improve the fertility of forest soil. In addition, Myrica rubra can also be planted as a fire forest belt.
Looking at the planted bayberry as a pioneer tree, I can't help but admire the knowledge of Changting people. Unity is strength, dare to teach Changting a new day. Looking at this profound museum, my love for Yangmei has increased a little.
After leaving the museum, we sat in sightseeing bus and visited the wetland park here.
Along the way, clear water and blue sky, green trees and green leaves can be seen everywhere, and leisurely wild ducks roam freely on the water. We were all very excited when we came to the lotus field.
The hot sun didn't stop us from enjoying the lotus. When we got off sightseeing bus, we flew happily into the lotus. Lotus leaf field, rolling crystal dew. Lotus petals, competing to open, fully open, like a little girl's charming smile; There are half-opened, like shy kannika nimtragol, half-covered and half-covered, which makes people feel swaying; Are there any open, small and lovely flowers and bones?
From this endless lotus pond, I am still wanting more. When a smooth and beautiful landscape painting caught my eye, I stopped and looked at it stupidly, with admiration in my eyes.
The curved stone bridge is reflected on the clear water, and the green grass on both sides is gentle. Under the blue sky and white clouds, dazzling bayberry is embedded in it. At this time, if there is a Jiangnan woman standing by the bridge with an oiled paper umbrella and smiling back, how beautiful the picture will be!
Although the trip is short, it makes me reluctant to part with this wetland park. Thinking about how the people of Changting transformed a "flaming mountain" into a "flower and fruit mountain" step by step, I couldn't help but want to sing a song. I want to praise the hardworking, brave and resourceful Hakkas with the most beautiful songs!
Tingjiangnan has a long history, and there are many delicious foods in the Hakka capital. As a famous food city in Fujian Province, Changting is characterized by a wide variety and exquisite craftsmanship. In just three days in Changting, we have tasted its unique food many times.
A common dish in restaurants, "Bai Jian He", actually originated from here. It is indispensable in the dishes of lunch and dinner every day. Looking at this small river, I have little interest. People who have eaten are full of praise, which aroused my interest. Gently put a piece in your mouth, full of meat, tender and sweet. I didn't know it really lived up to its reputation until I tasted its delicious food.
Changting tofu has a strong taste and remains fragrant. Whether it's steamed tofu, tofu with white skin and fragrant meat, jiaozi, and Changting dried tofu with high content of protein, it's memorable.
Flexible and sweet Ciba, attractive and delicious rice fruit, cool and delicious fairy jelly, crispy and delicious "fried snow potato" make people drool.
Walking into Jichuan Gate of Changting Ancient City seems to have crossed into the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Walking on this independent old street near the river, even the pace becomes slow. Walking in the street, the shoemaker guarded the corner and repaired his shoes slowly. This traditional craft, in my impression, has long been submerged in the long river of time, but I didn't expect it to appear in the street of Changting.
Shuttle through the long alley, as if going back in time. How would I feel if I put on my dress now?
Climbing the stairs, we came to Zhaiqiubai College of Literature with beautiful scenery.
Zhai Qiubai College of Literature was established in June of 20xx, with Fujian as its foothold and facing the whole country as its development idea. As the literary creation and training base of Changting, it is used to carry out literary exchanges, cultivate literary talents, fund the publication and performance of works, and organize literary creation and collection activities.
As soon as I stepped into this towering courtyard, a strong literary atmosphere immediately surrounded me.
Entering a foreign land, we are no strangers. Maybe it's because the people here are too hospitable, or the power of literature is too strong. The elegant Yunxiang Pavilion has left a precious mark of the counterpart communication between Jinjiang and Changting.
After dinner that night, our party, led by Brother Tyumen, walked happily to Diantou Street.
The ancient city of Changting, shrouded in the night, became charming like a dignified and elegant evening dress.
See red lanterns again. This artistic symbol of Changting is hanging around here again. We stepped on the old masonry and met an old shop with a strong ancient flavor. Peng Ji Ginger Sugar, Zhang Shijian Ginger Sugar, Xixiang Hakka Restaurant, Hakka Yipin, Tingzhou Sister ... Many simple old shops all present the most primitive appearance.
The old shop under the light is dressed in various styles by the dim moonlight. Of course, it's not just the ginger candy made on the spot that attracts me. The crispy taste is still spinning on the tip of the tongue, and the footsteps are taken away by the old shop in front. To my surprise, every shop here keeps its original appearance. Square tables and benches, ancient props that can only be seen on TV, abound here.
Along the way, we stopped to look around. Even with such a hasty trip, I still have leisure to see the sewing worker who sews soles in the shop. Looking at her attentive expression, I couldn't help but stop and watch her step on the sewing machine round and round. After reading it for a while, I finally understand that the denser the sewing needle and thread, the stronger the sole.
When I suddenly came to my senses, the person in front had already gone far, and I quickly strode forward to recover. I saw an old Cycas tree in Gong Yuan's private house, which was about to arrive at the tower. In the green light, this Cycas tree looks even more radiant. I think there must be many unknown stories in it.
When our footsteps were getting heavier and heavier, the tower finally arrived. The tower at night is completely different from what you see during the day. After boarding the tower, I saw rows of red lanterns and hundreds of surnames hanging on the wall. On this special night, on this special rostrum, it is a rare fate to see my surname!
We walked all the way, watching, listening and talking, and unconsciously merged with Changting. ...
Changting returns to love Hakka. It's almost a month since I came back from Changting, but those ancient scenes still linger in my mind, especially the kind and solemn stone statue in Hakka Mother Square, which often appears in my dreams. Beautiful Changting, look forward to seeing you next time!
