Brief introduction of Xiangxi border town

Teacher Shen Congwen's article Border Town has promoted the development of tourism in Fenghuang Ancient City. As we all know, the border town written by Shen Congwen is not the place of Fenghuang Ancient City, but a small town called Tea Cave at the junction of Guizhou, Chongqing and Hunan.

The border town Phoenix written by Shen Congwen more than 70 years ago was a border town that resisted Miao rebellion from Tang Dynasty to Ming and Qing Dynasties. So the famous South Great Wall Castle near Fenghuang has Alaying and Huangsi Bridge. Therefore, Xiangxi, which is close to Guizhou, has become a veritable border town of the Central Plains Empire, and has been stationed here for generations.

At the junction of Xiushan Tujia and Miao Autonomous County in Chongqing and Huayuan County in Hunan, there is a small town called Tea Cave, which lives by water.

Drunk, I parked my car next to the hotel near Garden River, found several rooms by the river, opened the window and saw lonely Cui Cui and her dog in the square on the other side of the river in the distance. The city is very calm. From the old teacher Shen Congwen's pen, she should be an ancient and quiet border town. Come in person, I feel a little unwilling to be lonely now. Residential buildings and local clothes still have some local characteristics, but the commercial border town lacks the original simplicity and tranquility.

Bian Cheng, formerly known as Tea Cave, is located at the junction of Hunan, Guizhou and Chongqing provinces and has the reputation of "one foot in three provinces". The masterpiece Border Town by Shen Congwen, a master of literature, combines beautiful scenery, kind customs and simple human feelings in a tea cave, drawing an idyllic border town, attracting countless people to come here, thus driving the local tourism industry.

In 2005, Chadong was officially renamed as Border Town. Tujia, Miao and Han are the majority, with strong ethnic customs.

Fortunately, it is not the tourist season. You don't need crowds and noise. If you slow down, you can feel the tranquility of the border town. Spend 40 yuan money to find a boatman and swim to "Three Provinces with One Foot", Red Army Ferry, Cui Cui Island and other places in one hour.

I can't help but think of what Shen Congwen wrote in his book: From Sichuan to Hunan, there is an official road leading directly to the East. This road is near the Xiangxi border. When I arrived at a small mountain town called Tea Cave, there was a stream. There is a small white tower by the stream, and a family lives under it. There is only an old man, a girl and a yellow dog in this family. "The novel begins with this extremely simple and moving style, and it shows us a quiet and simple rural scene in western Hunan.

On the Live Performance of Border Town

Border Town is the world's first live forest performance adapted from a famous literary work. Based on the romantic love stories of Cui Cui, Nuosong and Tianbao, this paper tells the sad love of three people who have never pursued and their life and death. I have shown my friends 10 many times. It feels different every time. The closer you get to the stage, the more you can feel the professionalism and dedication of the dancers. They don't slack off because of a fixed performance every day. They will always devote themselves to it and try to describe it forever. It is precisely because of such a group of people that groups of tourists have a newer and deeper understanding of the Phoenix, the border town and the feelings between people. Follow the music, follow the story, this performance is worth the ticket price!

Every year on the 10th day of the fifth lunar month, it is a border town fair. You can feel it in the morning. You can buy local corn Baba in the market, wrapped in corn leaves, and it tastes a bit like corn flour steamed bread.

One foot in three provinces

Tea Hongqiao (near Chongqing) has a triangle pavilion under the west bridge. There is a monument in front of the pavilion, which says, "One foot touches three provinces, and three provinces smell chickens crow." This is the intersection of Chongqing, Hunan and Guizhou provinces.

Sambugu i.

Now it has developed into a resort hotel, next to the pier of Hong 'an Ancient Town. Because this island is located on the Qingshui River, the first three provincial governments can't manage it, so people here can't solve any problems, so they all come to settle on this island.
