What's interesting about Yancheng Dongtai? What must-see attractions are there in Dongtai, Yancheng?

Every trip is not only to adjust one's living conditions, but also to see the beauty left in the world in one's lifetime. It seems that these beautiful exquisiteness and local differences have made me re-recognize the beauty of the world. This time I'm going to Dongtai, a place I've never been to but I'm longing for. The places I want to go this time are Xixi Scenic Area and Anfeng Ancient Town.

Huanghai National Forest Park Huanghai National Forest Park is located in Dongtai Coastal Economic Zone, formerly known as Dongtai Forest Farm. The Yellow Sea Forest Park in Dongtai, Yancheng in May is like a surreal picture, full of trees and vitality. Whether walking in the forest or driving in the forest, the morning light is weak and everything is silent, as if time is still here. It is far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, wandering in the green hills and enjoying the fragrance of nature.

On that day, the temperature was 5℃ lower than that in the urban area, and the average number of negative ions could reach 3500 /cm3. The negative ion displayed on the LED screen of the scenic spot that day was 40 18 /cm3. I believe many friends, like me, have no idea about the number of negative ions. It's obvious by comparing here. The tour guide said that the number of negative ions in Shanghai's residential areas is normally between 400 and 500, but here it is as much as 10. Negative ions are called "air vitamins" in the medical field, which can strengthen the functions of cerebral cortex and mental activities, invigorate the spirit and improve the quality of sleep.

Before entering the scenic spot, I was attracted by the shady trees on both sides of the road.

There are two kinds of means of transportation provided by the scenic spot, the battery sightseeing bus and the multi-person bicycle. These two kinds of terrestrial carbon-friendly vehicles are also in line with the overall temperament of the "green oxygen bar" in the park. At the same time, visitors can choose according to their own needs. This time we took a battery trip first, and then took a detailed bicycle trip after lunch. Battery sightseeing can completely relax yourself. With the breeze, you can stay in the forest, capture the beautiful scenery with your mobile phone, close your eyes and empty your eyes, and your distractions will vanish instantly. It is more fun for many people to go sightseeing by bike and enjoy the cooperation of their friends. You are responsible for pedaling, I am responsible for steering, and I want to stop when I meet the beautiful scenery, which invisibly shortens the distance between laughter and laughter.

There are also many wooden houses, wooden bridges, leisure stations and other buildings in the park, which are often excellent places to take pictures. Surrounded by trees, flowers and streams, wherever we go, our party will stop and go, and the shutter will never stop.

The beautiful Yellow Sea forest is full of trees and vitality. The morning light is hazy, and everything is silent, as if time is still here.

Speaking of taking pictures, I believe everyone has noticed the Metasequoia promenade above. The existing Metasequoia Corridor in the park is about 10km, which is a good place for couples to walk and take photos, where they can fly themselves.

Like the Metasequoia Corridor, there is also an aerial plank road, but the difference is that this plank road is built in mid-air, which gives people a completely different feeling. Although there is no thrilling glass plank road that has emerged in recent years, slow-paced walking is the correct way to open it here! At the same time, the barbed wire guardrails on both sides also ensure the safety of pedestrians.

There are plants and animals, and there is a bird garden next to the plank road in the air. There are horses, peacocks and other small animals suitable for free range in the area surrounded by barbed wire, and clever birds such as parrots and myna can also be seen in the cage outside the net. If you get close, they may even take the initiative to say hello to you!

What should I do if I come to such a relaxed and romantic place and don't want to leave? The scenic spot has its own good planning. Not far from the transfer center, there are two wooden houses. There are tables and benches under the wooden house, where you can have tea and chat. Although the wooden house looks small, it is fully equipped. The best design is the transparent skylight on the roof. At night, you can lie in bed and bite your ear and count the stars, and feel the truest and most dreamy romance of nature.

Anfeng Ancient Town There are many ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River, but there are not many ancient towns with profound cultural heritage. On the bus to Anfeng Ancient Town, we got off at an extremely ordinary street corner and arrived at our destination without warning. It's absolutely romantic to talk about the past and the present and describe your feelings when you step on the stone road that has experienced vicissitudes.

Even if you walk through the archway, you will enter the scenic spot. The first entrance is Anfeng Ancient Street, which was built in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

This is a really alive ancient town, which makes people seem to have crossed into the Ming and Qing dynasties at once, which is not easy in the current environment where scenic spots advocate commercial interests. There are no similar tourist souvenirs and vulgar chicken chops and milk tea shops in the shops on the street. There are also some traditional handicraft shops, such as old-fashioned barber shops and handmade shoe stores, which have gradually disappeared.

The most famous food shop here has to recommend-Ben Dajie Cao Luobing. My sister who makes cakes is Ben Youwei, and she has made 30 cakes.

A few years. When baking, the whole old street smells of grass and falling ice. Our group split the two cakes cut by the elder sister in an instant. Caoluo cakes are sweet and salty, 4 yuan with fresh meat, 2.5 yuan with white sugar and 3 yuan with oil residue. As a post-80s generation, when I was a child, I was no stranger to this kind of baked sesame seed cake in the stove, but it was the first time for Long Hudou to eat it, and it tasted sweet and salty. As for the taste, how about it? Then you have to taste it yourself before you come to a conclusion! This is a sesame seed cake broadcast on CCTV.

A "free tea" sticker on the picture also shows that this elder sister is really warm-hearted.

Bao Lou, Wu Ancestral Hall, Fan Zhongyan Theme Pavilion, Reading Room, Ge's former residence and other provincial and municipal cultural relics protection units in the block show the profound cultural heritage of the ancient town. These places have exquisite diamond carvings, wood carvings and exquisite architectural layout. With the explanation, I was fascinated by the development here and the wisdom of the ancients. They also gave the best certification to the salt merchant culture with rich connotations.

There are incredible traditional craft exhibition halls such as hair embroidery and sketching on the street. As the name implies, hair embroidery is a kind of handicraft with hair as raw material, combining painting and embroidery, which originated in the first year of Tang Dynasty. Straw painting is to collect high-quality straw, first flatten it by hand, then make paste with adhesive, then cut the paste with production tools, paste it on the drawing board for painting, then burn the color on the picture with soldering iron as required, and finally put it into the picture frame to become a decorative painting.

There is also a red exhibition hall on the street.

There is also a big stage in the west section of the ancient street, and there is a Feng Yanshi next to the stage. Salt Division was one of the local administrative organs of the ancient imperial court in China, and it was mainly engaged in salt tax in Qing Dynasty. For example, the stove, the beach, and the sea salt tax are called stoves. The object of collection is the salt field where the salt division is located. In addition, it is also responsible for collecting taxes from the salt transportation department. 19 10, the institution was abolished after the demise of the Qing dynasty.

There is also a water system gossip website, named after the distribution of the earth's water system in an eight-array diagram. It began in the training ground and ancient battlefield excavated by Xue Dong in the middle of Zhenguan in Tang Dynasty. There are 289 long and short ditches and 240 squares, with a total area of over 2 square kilometers. Gossip contains gods and is a well-known auspicious place. Later, it was buried because of digging rivers and repairing canals to level the fields, but spots can still be seen in Dagang Group 1. According to the tour guide, this water area is the famous Chuanchang River. It used to be the main entrance and exit of Anfeng Salt, and now it also carries the function of transporting ships.

Located at the southernmost tip of Anfeng ancient town, Dabei 'an was built in Yongzheng period, where Zheng Banqiao, one of the Eight Eccentrics in Yangzhou, once lived and studied. What we are seeing now is what it looks like after reconstruction.

Xixi tourism and cultural scenic spot Xixi, Xixi scenic spot takes experience, leisure and childlike interest as the main line, and holds a series of activities, which can be combined with tickets or played alone. The first visit to Yong Dong Seven Fairy Cultural Park includes 24 scenic spots, including Dong Xiaoxian Temple, Ancient Stage, Tianxian Teahouse, Shili Pavilion, Old Sophora Tree, Phoenix Pool and Silk Well. The overall orientation is Han-Tang style, focusing on the two themes of filial piety culture and love legend, fully excavating the historical and cultural origins of Dongtai city, and striving to highlight the local characteristics of Xixi ancient town.

The wind chimes that enter the door are really romantic. Listen to Xixi wind chimes and seek romantic love. The air here may be sweet. It is said that the park will hold a young men and women dating party in the afternoon that fits the theme of "520". I wish everyone who comes here can find their own romantic love.

The courtship information of unmarried men and women will be posted on the corridor below.

The old pagoda tree in fairy tales once played an important role, but now it is an out-and-out blessing tree.

After Yong Dong Seven Fairy Cultural Park, we took the battery sightseeing bus to Haichunta Garden across the street. Haichun Tower Garden is adjacent to Guyan River in the south, covering an area of about 300 mu. Taking Haichunxuan Pagoda, a national key cultural protection unit, and Taishan Huguo Temple, a key temple in Jiangsu Province as the core, it is divided into Buddha worship area, experience promotion area, Zhishanhui sea area, Cixiao culture area and Dade Bieyuan area, and scenic spots such as Zizhu Jingshe, Suzhaitang, Buddhist education and cultural center, Cixiao cultural center and Lotus Square will be built, and Buddhist culture will be combined with the three-phase culture and Cixiao culture to create Xixi Zen. Because of time, we only visited Chunxuan Tower, the first ancient pagoda in Jiangsu, which was built in the Tang Dynasty. It is a seven-story octagonal brick tower with dense eaves. The tower is 20.8 meters high and the bottom layer is 7.2 meters in diameter. In addition to the ground floor, there are 8 Buddha statues and niches on each floor, totaling 48. The tower is empty and there are no stairs to go up. Haichunxuan Tower has no foundation, but it is built on mud. After repeated earthquakes and floods, it still stands tall, which is a miracle in the architectural world. The top of the tower was originally copper gourd, made of "bonfire copper", which can change into seven colors according to different sunlight. Now it is a national key cultural relics protection unit.

Why did you end the trip of Haichunxuan Tower early that day, just to catch the "opening ceremony" of 10: 30? Rituals are everywhere and culture is precious. Worship the city god before opening the city is an important part of China's traditional ritual culture, and it is also an important embodiment of the vigorous development of Chinese civilization. The reappearance of this traditional etiquette in Xixi City is a historical review of Xixi's splendid civilization and a crossing experience for the audience. The day was also an empty lane, and local people and tourists surrounded the whole ceremony venue. The worship of Xixi City is different from other cities. For example, in addition to the city god in the middle, there are also Salt god in the east and western countries, all of which are unique to Xixi.

Food recommendation

He Lixia, east of the levee, is a typical land of plenty of fish and rice. There are many rivers and fresh water live fish, which are rich in wild crucian carp, eels, shrimp and fat crabs. The western region is close to the Yellow Sea and has a golden coastline of 85 kilometers. It is the only unpolluted seaside holy place on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean recognized by UNESCO and is rich in all kinds of seafood. So Dongtai people live two different salty lives. The food we have come into contact with these days is mainly fresh from rivers and lakes, supplemented by some common Huaiyang dishes, which are extremely delicious.

Dongtai fish soup noodles are made from wild crucian carp, eel bone, pig bone and other raw materials, and have the characteristics of high protein, low fat, rich in active calcium and various amino acids. After eating, it does not get angry or dry mouth, and is rich in nutrition, which conforms to the dietary health pursued by contemporary people. People often say that "eating a bowl of fish noodle soup is better than longevity". Dongtai explosive melon is named after its thin skin and high sweetness, and it cracks when a knife touches it. This kind of melon is also easy to crack, which is not convenient for long-distance transportation and storage, and can only be tasted on the spot.

Dongtai is the hometown of watermelon in China, and Dongtai watermelon is a national geographical indication trademark.

Accommodation recommendation

There are many accommodation options in Dongtai. Even on weekends and holidays, room resources are very rich. There are various types of hotels in the urban area, such as Dongtai International Hotel, Ganghui International Hotel, Dongtai People's Congress West Tianli Hotel and other high-end hotels. All season, Hanting, Home Inn and other well-known hotel chains; There are also wooden houses and special inns near the scenic spot. Our Four Seasons Hotel is located in the city center. As a high-end chain brand, the price of twin rooms per night is 189 yuan (quoted from Tongcheng), and it will remain unchanged on holidays. This price is very cost-effective compared with similar hotels in well-known tourist cities.
