Travel notes of guanshan pasture

Baoji at the end of July 2020, although cooler than in previous years, is dog days in summer and the temperature is still very high. So a group of people went to visit Guanshan Ranch.

At 2: 30 in the afternoon, we took a bus at the gate of the gymnasium. A dozen of us took a Kauste and went to Guanshan Ranch in Longxian County along expressway. The car came down from the intersection of Longxian Expressway and drove all the way along the sign. The road is tortuous along the way, and the vegetation on both sides is good. On one side of the road is a river. The river is small, but the water is clear. On the other side, there are green weeds and occasionally some trees. Look at the fruit hanging on it. It should be a walnut tree.

The car drove very fast and soon arrived at the scenic spot, but when I saw the blue sky, white clouds and green grass, I couldn't help but think back to going to the Guanjingshan Ranch, but because of the time, I couldn't remember the scene at that time. The group stayed at Guanshan Prairie Holiday Hotel, and it was still early, so they went out for a walk.

I heard that there was a lake not far from the hotel, so I went out of the hotel and left. After only three or five minutes' walk, you can see a bright green water surface. At this time, the sky is blue, white clouds stand in the air, and the white clouds are not high, as if they were on a hill not far away.

The lake is surrounded by green grass, which is different from the city lawn, spread out one by one, like a green carpet. There are herds of cattle on the grassland, which are huge and completely different from Qinchuan cattle that used to be common in my hometown. These cattle and sheep are grazing freely. Look at the blue sky and white clouds reflected on the lake and the dead trees on the shore. Of course, the largest area is still green.

Looking at the wide lake, what seems to be missing? Fortunately, I saw a sign by the lake and learned that the lake is located in Tiancheng Town, Longxian County. The name of the lake is Riyue Lake Waterlogging Pool. Speaking of waterlogging ponds, in my hometown of Weinan, almost every village has two or three waterlogging ponds. It can be said that the rural waterlogging pond is the rural water conservancy system. Of course, this Sun Moon Lake is obviously bigger and more beautiful than the waterlogged pool I have ever seen, especially its surrounding environment.

Walking leisurely in Guanshan pasture like this, I don't feel that the sky is dark, as the so-called mountain night comes early. We naturally eat and drink in the evening, and the atmosphere is particularly warm. We ate a few mouthfuls of cold dishes, but only watched hot dishes. We hardly know what roast whole sheep looks like. What a pity!

Taking advantage of the strong wine, everyone rushed out of the hotel and jumped around the fire and tourists. At this time, the flames were blazing, and the excited people shouted and jumped, breaking the silence in the mountains. The sky is blue, which is different from the night in the city. Everyone didn't go to bed until midnight.

The next morning, I got up and washed. With the sound of falling rain, the group left Guanshan Ranch and returned to that noisy and ordinary city. As the saying goes, the quiet landscape is what I love, and so is the messy earthly life.
