Picturesque Three Gorges Family

At 7: 45, six of us got on the bus numbered 2 18 at the entrance of Xiangjiang No.1 hotel and went to the Three Gorges family. The Three Gorges family is located in the most fantastic and magnificent Xiling Gorge in the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, between the Three Gorges Dam and Gezhouba Dam, and it is the only remaining area in the Three Gorges that maintains the original features of the Three Gorges. The car drove all the way along the river bank. As the saying goes, relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to draft. Along the way, what I saw most were all kinds of strange stone halls, and all kinds of stones were displayed and sold by the roadside. Unconsciously, the bus came to the tourist center of Guanyin Ferry on the riverside, and the Three Gorges family was in Jiang Nanan. We boarded the No.7 ship of the Three Gorges Family and came to the Three Gorges Family Scenic Area.

The first scenic spot we visited was Longjinxi. The tour guide told us the origin of Longjin River. I looked back at the cliff on the north bank of the river. Indeed, a banded stone ridge winds down from the top of the mountain like a dragon. The tour guide continued, looking at the direction of the faucet, it seemed that he jumped into this Qingxi and went back to his nest to rest, hence the name Longjinxi. Because of this legend, Longjinxi is a bit more mysterious.

We walked along the stone road by the stream, where the bamboo forest is lush, the stream is green and the mountains are reflected in the water. We were intoxicated and stopped to take pictures. At this moment, a beautiful little sailboat appeared in front of us. A girl in Tujia clothes stood there with an umbrella bow, as if waiting for her lover to come home. What a beautiful picture! I heard tourists calling for new learning to call beauty: Yao Mei! Everyone was amused and shouted "Sister Yao". In the bamboo forest, a row of diaojiao buildings were built downstream. They stood beside the mountains and water, half ashore and half in the water. On the big stone in front of the diaojiao building by the stream, several girls in the mountains beat their clothes and sang warm and touching love songs. They rapped on the slate with sticks, making a crisp and pleasant sound, as if playing a deep love song. I was infected by this picture and couldn't help recording it on my mobile phone. Walking in a quiet valley, surrounded by bamboo forests and corresponding folk songs, unconsciously, people will have a poetic feeling of "stepping into a paradise and not knowing where to return"

The tour guide told us that there was a performance of "crying marriage" ahead, and briefly explained the custom of "crying marriage" of Tujia people. According to the information on the internet, crying marriage is a unique custom of Tujia nationality and a prelude to Tujia wedding. They think that "no crying is not lively, no crying is not beautiful". Brides usually start crying one month before marriage, and some start crying two or three days before marriage or the day before. While buying her dowry, her family poured out their feelings of parting. A girl who can cry won't cry for a month, but her ancestors, her parents, her brothers and sisters, her matchmaker and herself will cry. The form of crying is to replace crying with songs, and to replace crying with songs. Lyrics have traditional patterns, and clever girls improvise. Tujia girls pour out their feelings in the form of "crying".

We took a few quick steps and found a seat to watch the performance. The performance was performed on a quaint diaojiao building. Tujia girls are beautiful and "cry" euphemistically, which makes us feel an exotic wedding process.

At the end of the stream is Huanglong Waterfall. Huanglong Waterfall is not big, and the water is pouring down from the smooth stone. We take pictures separately. Then I sat in a chair and ate some fruit snacks, and then I took a boat back to another scenic spot-Bawangzhai.

Bawangzhai is an antique bungalow with a strong charm.

The guide showed us the stone statue first. According to the "Donghu County Records", there are huge stones in the south of the Yangtze River, such as Paipai Raft, hence the name Shipai, from which the name Shipai came. Stone token, near the mountain peak, stands upright at its end, and its stone surface is as smooth as an axe. From a distance, it looks like a hanging token. Legend has it that the stone tablet was carved by Dayu with an axe when he was in charge of water control, and it is also said that it is the sacred card of the Jade Emperor who came to the world, which has the merit of protecting the country and benefiting the people. The Yangtze River suddenly turned right here 1 10 degrees, forming a natural war graben, standing at the sharp corner of the Yangtze River, which was a battleground for military strategists in past dynasties. This is also the place where the famous Shipai Defence War took place during the Anti-Japanese War.

We continued to climb and reached the top of the mountain. Look at these three strange stones standing on the top of the mountain, which is more real? The tour guide said that this stone is very similar to the image of Tang Priest and his disciples in The Journey to the West. Whenever the sun sets, the sunset glow sets off the peak, and it looks like a figure on the screen of the lamp shadow from a distance, hence the name "the lamp shadow stone". The most famous lamp shadow stone is the sand monk stone, which is known as "the first stone in the Yangtze River". It stands at the top of the cliff, mushroom-shaped, weighing more than 100 tons, with a load-bearing section of only over 200 square centimeters at the bottom, with an average weight of nearly half a ton per square centimeter, making it a wonder of the world.

After going down the mountain, we went to the performance square to watch a Pakistani folk performance.

After the performance, we applied for another 30 minutes to walk freely. On our way to Bagong, there are also distinctive styles on both sides: craftsman's production, batik workshop, music workshop, Nanqu performance, local specialties and so on, which makes me dizzying. Because of the time, I couldn't visit the Ba Palace, which is a pity for me.

At 3: 30, we went to the return passage, and I looked at Jiang Nanan again. The dark brown wall columns of Bawangzhai are set off halfway up the mountain, which are antique. We need to cruise to the No.2 pump. It's a long way. I walked on the passage, the river was breezy, and it was very comfortable. My eyes have never left the river bank, and those houses with blue tiles and white bodies by the river will make me think.

Unconsciously came to the No.2 pump, and I walked into the boarding passage, waiting for boarding.

Goodbye, the dreamlike dragon enters the stream; Goodbye, unique overlord village; Goodbye, picturesque Three Gorges family!
