Walking into Chengdu prose

20 1 1 year 65438+1October 25th, I was on duty on the Spring Festival travel rush peak Kelin L 17/ 18 train. The train departs from Beijing West Railway Station, after 34 hours of bumps, passing through 33 stations in 5 provinces, with a journey of 1800 kilometers. At 7 o'clock the next morning, I felt that it was just dawn, maybe it was cloudy, and the train had entered the south. Through the window, I can see that the winter scenery outside is very different from that in the north. The mountains are green and the ground is green. Houses passing through the countryside, smoke rising from the roof, ponds and ducks in front of the houses all show the characteristics of the south. The thin light fog sets off the ancient cities and villages, adding a bit of poetry and painting. City street buses are already running, and cyclists are on their way to work. At present, the train is half an hour late and arrives at Mianyang Railway Station at 8 o'clock. It's really much more comfortable to get off and feel the temperature here. I don't think you need to wear cotton-padded clothes to play in Chengdu.

At 9: 30, the train arrived at Chengdu Railway Station, and the gloomy weather made the excitement of coming to Chengdu slightly discounted. Due to a serious lack of sleep, everyone looks exhausted. Now that I'm in Chengdu, I still have to go out for a walk and see the city when I'm refreshed. I originally planned to go to Leshan and Emei, but I cancelled it because of the long distance and fear of insufficient time. We can only play in the city. Inquire at the newsstand not far away. It takes an hour to get to Wuhou Temple, and taking a taxi is not much faster than taking a bus. There may be unfair charges. So, five of our colleagues went straight to Wuhou Temple by bus. There are traffic jams and red lights in the city. As the newspaper seller said, it took nearly an hour to arrive.

It's raining in Mao Mao. It seems that there is no need to go to Taibei to watch the rain in winter, which is a common experience in southern China. The trees on both sides of the street are covered with small paper red lanterns, which are very eye-catching, adding a beautiful scenery to the city, because the Spring Festival is coming, and it also highlights the festive atmosphere. Next to Wuhou Temple, it is also a good place for tourists to relax-Jinli. The streets here are not wide, but its architectural style and rows of shops are antique and full of cultural charm, which not only attracts tourists from all over the country, but also makes many foreign tourists linger and admire. Every store in frontispiece is small, but the layout is exquisite, and the goods are dazzling, tasteful and ornamental. Very artistic, all kinds of brushes, silk, calligraphy and painting, handicrafts, etc., are pleasing to the eye everywhere. Sichuan snacks have everything, and they are delicious. They are really appetizing. Jinli is a street with Qiang culture and customs, with a constant stream of tourists. Therefore, commodity prices are also high, so that shopping around is also empty-handed. The biggest gain is that I took a lot of photos with my camera. The scenery is good, but the weather is not ideal. It is not known whether the characteristics of Chongqing, a foggy mountain city, have been extended to Chengdu, which is also Sichuan. Maybe the climatic conditions here are roughly the same. In Chengdu, I feel that no one can speak Mandarin, and listening to them is also a little knowledge. The first time I feel tired in my ears, it's hard to listen. From the TV advertisement on the bus and the Mandarin of the station name, I feel my ears are much relaxed.

From Jinli, I visited the Temple of Wuhou, which included Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, other officials and ministers of Shu Han, and Hui Ling. Covering an area of1.5000 square meters, with rich cultural heritage, it has been open for more than 1.78 years, enjoying the reputation of "Holy Land of the Three Kingdoms" and is a national first-class museum. In the temple, I visited Chen Wen Gallery, Military Commander Gallery, Han Zhaolie Temple, Wuhou Temple, Kongming Garden and Sanyi Temple. At this time, the song in the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was introduced to my ears: the Yangtze River rolled eastward, the waves scoured out heroes, success or failure was here, and many things in ancient and modern times were laughed off ... History will move on, good and evil, loyalty and treachery will be judged by future generations. History is like a calendar. Turning a page will open a new era.

Kuanzhai Lane, founded in Qing Dynasty, is one of the three historical and cultural protection zones in Chengdu. It is composed of three old-fashioned streets: wide lane, narrow lane and scenic lane, and the quadrangle community between them. It is the only witness to the architectural style of hutong in the north and south. Each alley has its own style, where you can touch the traces left by history and appreciate the most primitive way of life in Chengdu, some of which are quite exotic, attracting many foreigners to come here for beer, coffee, Chinese food and western food. Alleys are quiet, elegant and chic. About 500 thousand people visit here every month, and walking in these alleys will feel comfortable and enjoyable.

Before I knew it, I wandered into the afternoon 1, and my tiredness disappeared temporarily, but my stomach protested. Introduced by local people, I went to a hot pot restaurant in Kuanzhai Lane. The storefront is ugly and the conditions are simple, but the hot pot is authentic. It is said that it has been on TV. We ordered a slightly spicy one, and when we served it, we found that it was covered with a layer of red pepper, which contained tofu, pickled mustard tuber, fish, bullfrog and so on. Try it, hehe, it's much hotter than I expected. Even so, when you come to Sichuan, you still have to taste the spicy food. It tastes really good, which is really different from the hot pot in the north. In Chengdu and even Sichuan, there are almost no dishes without peppers, which is also the characteristic of Sichuan cuisine. I am surprised that pepper can stimulate appetite, and when it stimulates appetite, it will greatly increase appetite. However, tall and fat Sichuanese are rarely seen in the street.

When I first arrive in Chengdu, I always bring some local products home. Looking at the supermarket, I feel that the price is on the high side, which is similar to that in Beijing. Let's go to the market and buy it. The price is really much lower. I bought Sichuan-style bacon, spicy sauce, peppers, tribute oranges, blood oranges, etc., which can be described as a full load. The famous commercial street in Chengdu is called Chunxi Road, which is equivalent to Wangfujing in Beijing. Perhaps the festival is coming, and there are many tourists, either shopping or shopping. This modern commercial street doesn't appeal to me. I'd rather visit Jinli several times. I like the feeling of leisure, quietness and elegance. It is a good place to inspire people. If I like photography, I'm sure I can shoot some good works. The first time I came to Chengdu, I saw, played, ate and bought, and the harvest was full. I'm glad you came.

The train returns to Beijing at 0 o'clock in the evening, and I'm still on duty, so I have to take over for more than 10 hours. I really want to record this wonderful experience with my notes. Because of lack of sleep, I fell asleep after writing over and over again, and I was extremely tired. I've never lived this long. I only rested for less than 8 hours in more than 50 hours. Fortunately, there were almost no passengers on the return trip. I still mobilized the tired brain cells, insisted on writing this text and said to myself: thank you!
