Mudu ancient town has a long history. It is said that Fu Cha, the king of Wu, wanted to win the favor of four ancient beauties. When he was building a big building, wood drifted here, and an amazing number of wood blocked the river port under Lingshan, so he named this place "Mudu". After hearing this introduction, he had to sigh with emotion. Since ancient times, emperors have been affectionate, and heroes are sad about beauty!
There is an archway at the entrance of Mudu. This archway is not small. It says "blowing sound", which is absolutely cursive. At first, I couldn't understand the word. Just nearby, a tour group came and listened to the tour guide. It is said that Kangxi and Qianlong visited Mudu ancient town several times. This ancient town has really been favored by emperors of all ages, and it is not too much to use the word blowing.
There is a stream on the street of Mudu ancient town, named Xiangxi River. There is an ancient bridge in Ming Dynasty on Xiangxi River, named Yong 'an Bridge. The name of this river is related to. It is because Shi lives in Guanwa Palace, not far from Lingshan, and washes his face with a lot of spices every day, so this river has always been very fragrant, so it was named Xiangxi River.
The acquisition of this name also makes people think. It is not easy to please an ancient emperor, and there is still a feeling of hatred between the country and the family. I can't help feeling a little sad for Shi, one of the four beauties in ancient times.
Mudu ancient town, like those in the south of the Yangtze River, has small bridges and weeping willows. Walking here makes people feel trance.
The bustling shops and shouts around, as well as the voices of tourists bargaining, have brought people back to the present and made people feel the vitality here.
I like the vitality of Mudu ancient town. Everyone has a quiet and comfortable face, and the store has a kind and kind smile. No matter whether tourists buy goods or not, even if they just take a look, the store is quietly greeting and has no impatience.
Some people say that the ancient town should remain the same, or the old style. It is necessary to continue to present rickety and dilapidated shacks and potholes and muddy stone roads, so that the ancient town will have the taste of an ancient town, but I don't think so. I think an ancient town needs to be protected. First of all, people in ancient towns need to improve their quality of life. It is not safe to continue living in houses that are about to collapse. Moreover, the development of these shops in the ancient town not only increased the income of the people in the ancient town, but also attracted more people.
The goods sold in those stores also have some characteristics, such as homemade sweet-scented osmanthus candy, homemade fruit wine and wine, and some silk, including baby toys, as well as farm dishes and other specialties, including small tea rooms and bars.
It's actually quite good. In addition to looking at the small bridges and flowing water in the ancient town, understanding the history and culture of the ancient town has also added a lot of interest. It's not good to buy some special products as handwritten letters. It is not good to get something to eat and drink a cup of tea when you are tired of shopping, or it is also a pleasant thing to stay here for a few days and feel the peace in the morning and evening.
The ancient town of Mudu does not charge admission fees, but there are several ancient garden-style courtyards, such as Yan Jia Garden, Yin Hong Mountain House, Gusong Garden and No.2 Mansion, which all charge fees, and the fees are not low. Because of the time, we have to rush by, but we can't go in to explore its wonderful. Looking forward to the next exploration.
