Is it difficult to describe the beauty of leisurely flowing water?

Suzhou-Hangzhou Canal is the southernmost part of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, with Wumen Bridge in Suzhou at its northern end and Chengong Bridge in Hangzhou at its southern end. The distance between the two bridges 15 1 km is also the busiest section of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal.

1930, an English photographer named Gregory visited the Suzhou-Hangzhou Canal by boat and photographed many canal scenery at that time. He also aimed the camera at the women working on the shore and recorded their busy figures with the camera. Accustomed to the traffic in big cities, I occasionally need to feel the warmth and coldness of Jiangnan water town. In Hangzhou, there is such a habitat for human souls. It is one of the top ten ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River, and is known as the Tangqi ancient town of "Ten Miles of Plum Blossom Fragrant Snow Sea".

A young girl is washing clothes in the canal. The little girl stood watching, and a child sat at the door watching the scenery and thinking about life.

The woman who works in the diaojiao building by the canal stopped the photographer's boat and handed the film to San continuous shooting Company. Tangqi Town is located in the north of Hangzhou, bordering Deqing County, Huzhou City, about 20 kilometers away from the urban area. The transportation is convenient, and you can go to Tangqi Town for a day trip on weekends. The famous Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal passes through the town and becomes the main waterway of Jiangsu, Shanghai, Jiaxing and lakes. Since ancient times, Tangqi has been the water gateway of Hangzhou.

Because it is a water town and the streets are built along the river, many stone bridges have been built in the ancient town. There are 36 stone bridges in the town. The ancient streets and rivers are connected by stone bridges, connecting the small buildings on both sides. The most iconic stone bridge is Guangji Bridge, which is a seven-hole stone bridge across the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. It has a long history and a huge momentum. Standing on the stone bridge, you can have a panoramic view of the whole ancient town, with pure blue sky overhead and the unique scenery of the water town in front of you. When the weather is fine, it is more enjoyable to stand on the bridge and watch the sunset. The sunset is slanting, the twilight is heavy, the golden red twilight is rendering the whole sky, and the glittering gold foil is stuck on the river, which is wonderful and intoxicating.
