Beautiful prose on travel notes to Qingyan Ancient Town in Guizhou

Original title: Qingyan Time

Stop everything and share time quietly. Qingyan is such a place.

Many people chose to stay and share the tranquility of Qingyan in the light moonlight. As a result, Qingyan was not quiet during the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2017. We arrived relatively late because we couldn't find a comfortable place to stay in the ancient town. A few guest rooms temporarily converted from offices at a place outside the town called the Guyun Mengcheng Hotel accommodated us.

The beige lights reflect the vicissitudes and mystery of the ancient town. We walked up the stairs paved with bluestones, and sometimes there were alleys branching out to the surrounding area, with red lanterns like shy faces, exuding mysterious temptation. Of course, there was no feeling of fear at all. Instead, there is a sense of intimacy that spans time and space. Young men and women in groups of three or three walked past us. In addition to laughter, there was also the sound of eating, which made the night become passionate.

Whether it is the shops along the street, or the houses hidden in the depths, as well as churches, temples, city pavilions, thick city walls, and of course the lotus pond, they are all extraordinarily rich because of the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Romantic poetry. The moonlight shines on the lotus pond outside the south gate, and some withered lotus leaves become more haggard, like Lin Daiyu among the buried flowers. At the east gate, the full moon and the turret talk to each other, as if they are recording an affectionate exchange of history and times. Entering the winding city wall from the west gate, you can reach out to the vast sky, and the ancient town under the stars is as quiet as a sleeping Buddha.

When the moonlight was blurry, I had a drink in a small shop. The boss and sisters were very happy to see us drinking well. He recommended the local "Zhuangyuan Pig's Trotter" to help us drink. That kind of unprecedented joyful atmosphere can only be presented tonight. Drinking wine to admire the moon, and then eating local special rice cakes as moon cakes is a unique feeling. The Mid-Autumn Festival night in Qingyan is exceptionally pleasant and cheerful.

Although the time in Qingyan begins at night, we never want to let go of the beauty of the morning. At six o'clock in the morning, when everything here was just beginning to sprout, we had already rushed to the city wall. The city wall is very high and steep, going straight up and down in some places. We know from the introduction that this was once a military town. In many battles throughout the ages, this place has stood firm and impregnable. Standing at the highest point, watching the sun gushing out, you can have a panoramic view of Qingyan Ancient Town. There is already a curl of green smoke, slowly rising into the sky like a bird that has just woken up. But for Qingyan who was sleeping the whole time, he seemed so boring. We cheered and took photos in front of an old tree, trying to break the tranquility. We want to show our presence, but it’s still a little small. There were a few stupid young men standing on the edge of the highest point of the city wall, shouting boring swear words, but there was no response from the ancient town. We know that in the history of more than 600 years, Qingyan has always survived and struggled with its inherent personality, and has been admired by the world with its fortitude and mystery.

A place called Banmu Pond is still somewhat poetic. In a secluded place, with only half an acre of land, the lotus pond, pavilions, pavilions and gardens are built with exquisite elegance, making people feel beautiful and lingering. The alley in the morning light was so quiet that it was life-like. It's the kind of emotion that people can't bear to leave. Especially those of us who are over fifty years old, we often recall the past with true feelings. On the way to find the former residence of the number one scholar, I met two women, an old man and a young man. They were holding an exquisite puppy, walking very leisurely, and completely integrated into the life here. We asked them, and they laughed because they were also outsiders and came here to look for the former residence of the No. 1 Scholar. Their calmness allowed us to get to know Qingyan again.

Qingyan is like this, there is nothing strange about it, and there is nothing that makes people feel uncomfortable. Everything here feels familiar like your past, but also like your future destination and a place worth placing your trust in. Here, everyone can find your love and beautiful memories. You can sing, you can hum, or you can be alone and meditate. Everything is done casually and to your heart's content. Time in Qingyan is just a dream, a dream like moonlight forever.
