One-day tour of Ya 'an

Ya 'an is a city full of vitality and historical precipitation. It became the center of the 2008 earthquake, and the scale of urban damage was very large, but it has been rebuilt now. Let's share with you a one-day tour guide for Ya 'an tourism.

When I first arrived in Ya 'an City, Sichuan Province, I was shocked by the terrain of Ya 'an City. The buildings in the whole city are built on the mountain. The north, west and south of the city are towering mountains. I have long heard that Ya 'an is a rainy city. Warm and humid air from the south gathers over Ya 'an for many years, giving Ya 'an rainy weather all year round. My first arrival didn't make God particularly merciful. It's drizzling at night, and when you go out in the morning,

Ya 'an, the former capital of Xikang Province, was founded after Xikang Province was abolished and merged into Sichuan. 1955. In 2000, the State Council approved the revocation of Ya 'an area and the establishment of Ya 'an as a prefecture-level city. Located in the western edge of Sichuan Basin, Ya 'an is known as the "throat of western Sichuan", "gateway to Tibet" and "ethnic corridor".

Ya 'an is located in the southwest of Sichuan, and Erlang Mountain borders Tibet. The production of Mengding tea is known as the birthplace of China tea culture, and the famous tea-horse ancient road in southwest China is here. Ya 'an is located at the intersection of Han and Tibetan cultures, with profound historical background, beautiful mountains and rivers and good ecology. It is a natural oxygen bar.

The unique geographical location and climatic conditions have created three distinctive landscapes in Ya 'an: "Elegant Rain", "Elegant Fish" and "Elegant Girl", also known as Ya 'an Sanya. ?

According to Shu Zhi, "Yazhou has Zhougong Mountain. According to legend, Kong Ming dreamed that Duke Zhou was here, because the temple was built as Wenxian Temple, named Duke Zhou Mountain. " Because Ya 'an is located in the mountainous area, it is difficult to see the bright sunshine because it is shrouded in clouds all the year round. It rains 300 times a year, so it is called "Rain City".

There is a folklore in Ya 'an: In those days, Nu Wa made colorful stones to make up for the leak in the sky, and led seven stars to sew a cloud garment. Just as the great cause of mending the sky was about to be completed, I suddenly heard that there was another big hole in the sky in Ya 'an in the west.

She couldn't take a rest, so she rode the Condor to Ya 'an and continued to mend the sky. Just as she was preparing to fill the "loophole" over Ya 'an, other places were also anxious. In desperation, Nu Wa rushed to Taiwan Province Island and Hainan Island with stones, and Ya 'an became a "fish that slipped through the net".

The data show that Ya 'an has a subtropical monsoon humid climate, with an annual average temperature of14.1℃ ~17.9℃. The city has high humidity and little sunshine, and the average annual rainfall is about 1800 mm, which is the area with the most rainfall in Sichuan. ?

Du Fu, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote the poem "Dive into the night with the wind, moisten things quietly", which is about the rainy night in Ya 'an. A local poet said that the rainy night in Ya 'an moistens the growth of everything in spring and makes people feel the beginning of grass growing and warblers flying. In summer, eliminate the heat and bring people cool air; In autumn, the dust is washed away, showing that the sky is high and the clouds are light, and the forest is dyed, giving people a feeling of "elegance". Therefore, it is called "Yayu" by local people. Yayu is the first of the three wonders, and it is possible to experience Yayu fluttering in any season. Yayu is also very considerate, and generally chooses to go down the mountain at night, which is fine but not wet and full of poetry. The rain in Ya 'an is not only good rain, but also gentle, not angry, not crazy, not horizontal, not impetuous, slightly leisurely, gentle, drizzly, falling on trees and lush trees; Sprinkle it on the crops, and the crops bow like cheese; Falling in the young man's arms and chest, the young man is full of energy and high spirits; Sprinkle it on the girl's face, and the girl will be as charming as Haitang after taking a shower. Only the rain here can be called "elegant". Clouds are like fog, like veils, and there seems to be nothing. Warm air is mixed with a lot of negative oxygen ions. Walking in this rain, enjoying the rain, or listening carefully to the dense scene of rain falling on the foothills, flowers and rivers of Duke Zhou, no matter how anxious you become. ?

The test results of relevant departments show that Yayu is rich in negative oxygen ions, and bathing in Yayu can make people's tired body and mind suddenly excited. Due to frequent bathing, local people are healthy and live a long life. According to historical records, in the Tang Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, there were nine longevity families living under one roof. During the reign of Emperor Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Kangxi presented the "First Family in China" gold plaque to the Chen family in Changshoushan, Bifengxia. ?

To my surprise, on the roadside beside Qingyi River, I saw a local resident who was going to sell Yayu. There are not many truly wild Ayurvedas, and most of them that can be sold now are raised artificially. As one of the three outstanding men in Ya 'an, Yayu has a long-standing reputation, which was recorded in writing as early as 1700 years ago. Zuo Si, a writer in the Western Jin Dynasty, said in Shu Du Fu that "Jiayu is from point C". Ya 'an was once the jurisdiction of Hanjia County, so Zuo Si called it "Jiayu", and since the Tang Dynasty, it was renamed "Ice Fish". Poet Du Fu praised "You Mei is the place where fish know C".

According to legend, the elegant fish was melted by the sword left by the goddess of heaven when it entered the water, so the paradise bone of the elegant fish looks like a sword. It is also said that there is a "sword" hidden in the skull of Yayu, which was born after Su Qin left various countries during the Warring States Period and died afterwards. His sword slipped into the river and was collected by the elegant fish, so that it became an "anti-counterfeiting mark" to reward the elegant fish in the future: if there is a sword, it is true, and if there is no sword, it is false. Elegant fish live in rapids, feed on fresh aquatic organisms, and the meat is tender and delicious. Pure and elegant fish, with graceful and slender figure, thin and bright scales, tight and tender meat, smooth taste, rich nutrition and not greasy after eating for a long time. ?

Sichuan produces beautiful women, and Ya 'an is no exception. However, the beauty of women in Ya 'an is unique. One side of the soil and water supports the other side, and Ya 'an women live in a place where Tibetans and Hans live together. Ya' an women combine the characteristics of Tibetan and Chinese languages, and their appearance is softer than that of Tibetan women, and they have a little more three-dimensional sense than that of Han women. They are slim and enchanting, healthier and more sunny than Tibetan women.

"Elegant Girl" has the aura of elegant rain and the tranquility of elegant tea, giving people a feeling of charm. Elegant girl, because of the moist of elegant rain and the nutrition of elegant fish, is not only beautiful and pure, but also gentle, elegant and kind, like a lotus flower in the bath or a rose with dew. The young girls here are as white as snow, gentle in character and easy and elegant in communicating with others. Most of the songs they sing are lyrical and elegant, such as Yingying singing, the girls in the flower season are watery and graceful, and the beautiful girls in the rainy season are graceful, smiling like closing the moon, with their heads down and their lips pursed, while most of the beautiful women in Ya 'an are graceful, charming and legendary. Ya 'an is rich with elegant fish, colorful with elegant rain and charming with elegant women. * * * jointly formed the unique "elegant" humanistic characteristics of Ya 'an. ?

Before I came to Ya 'an, I watched a documentary about Ya 'an on CCTV, knowing that Ya 'an is not only a famous Sanya, but also a place where China's national treasure giant panda was found. 1869, the first giant panda in China was found in Ya 'an, which shocked China and foreign countries. The giant panda is also known as the living fossil of animals in the world. Since then, Ya 'an has started to go to the world and has gradually become familiar and understood by the world.

The giant panda has also become the golden signboard of Ya 'an. It is understood that, especially since liberation, since 1955, Ya 'an has sent out 136 live giant pandas. The first living giant panda to go abroad and the first living giant panda to go abroad as a "national gift" came from Ya 'an. Today, Ya 'an has the largest panda population in China.

52% of the core area of Sichuan giant panda habitat is in Ya 'an. 5. 12 After the Wenchuan earthquake, Bifengxia Giant Panda Protection Base in Ya 'an, China became the largest panda protection, research and breeding base in the world. ?

Qingyi River winds through Ya 'an city from west to east, and the bridge naturally becomes an indispensable link to communicate with residents on both sides of Qingyi River in Ya 'an. In addition, the rainy weather in Ya 'an has created a unique covered bridge culture in Ya 'an. Along the banks of Qingyi River, various bridges with unique shapes and styles in Yucheng District cross the river and connect the northern and southern urban areas. The elegant and beautiful urban leisure parks dotted with green trees on both sides of Qingyi River highlight this historical and cultural city.

Natural features and folk customs. The covered bridges on both sides of Qingyi River can be crossed by cars, and one of them is the largest covered bridge in the world-Yazhou Covered Bridge. ?

Under the guidance of local people, I walked eastward along the north bank of Qingyi River and found the largest covered bridge in the world. After about twenty minutes' walk from the hotel, the majestic figure of Yazhou Covered Bridge caught my eye. Although I have seen many covered bridges in Guangxi, I am still a little surprised to approach Yazhou Covered Bridge. This covered bridge is called the first covered bridge in the world, with a width of 22 meters and a length of 240 meters. The whole covered bridge is an antique building, with two floors as a whole and three floors locally. The bottom of the covered bridge can not only meet the traffic function on both sides of Qingyi River, but also establish a considerable commercial business area. There are all kinds of goods in the shops on the covered bridge, besides the necessities of daily life, there are many Tibetan and Qiang specialties and costumes. On the second and third floors of the covered bridge, multifunctional business rooms such as restaurants, teahouses, exhibitions, exhibitions and outdoor viewing can be opened. From the exhibition hall, we know that the total usable area of Yazhou Covered Bridge is 9028 square meters, the commercial usable area of commercial pedestrian street on the first floor is 2 100 square meters, and the commercial usable area of covered bridge on the second floor is 3934.92 square meters. Three-story commercial building area1231.5m2; Among them, the multifunctional hall covers an area of 105 1.2 square meters. Ya' an covered bridge organically combines urban construction exhibition hall, hydropower exhibition hall, historical and cultural exhibition hall, tourism exhibition hall and commercial buildings, fully demonstrating the local folk customs and local culture of Ya' an. ?

It is understood that the world's largest covered bridge started construction in June 2004 +065438+ 10, and was completed and opened to traffic in August 2005. Ya' an covered bridge is integrated with Ya' an Beer Street, Red Wall Inn, Ximen Tea Gallery, Qingyi River and other urban attractions. Together, * * * has built an antique romantic scene in Ya' an, attracting many tourists and snuggling up to the covered bridge in the embrace of green mountains and green waters, which makes tourists feel a visual impact and can't help but arouse it.

The poetry of "Sleeping in Apollo with Long Bridge, but not loving Eric" is even more memorable when strolling on the covered bridge in Yazhou.

On the downstream side of the covered bridge, there are guardrails and sidewalks. Granite relief of Ya 'an characteristic stone "China Red" is installed on the guardrail, and a flower pond with a width of 50 cm is built outside the upstream side crash guardrail. A granite relief of "China Red" was also installed on the guardrail. There are historical customs and patterns such as "Panda Hometown", "Yazhou Han Yun" and "Yazhou Style" on the relief. ?

Walk through Yazhou Covered Bridge and look back at it several times. In my heart, I not only admire the originality of the designers of Yazhou Covered Bridge, but also marvel that the builders have built such a magnificent building in such a short time. I stayed near Yazhou Covered Bridge for a long time, not because I promised to meet my clients, but because I expected to stay all morning.

Because time was running out, I quickly took a group of photos on the covered bridge with my mobile phone and then left in a hurry. ? Later, I went to Ya 'an on business twice. Every time I pass by Qingyi River, I can't help walking towards the largest covered bridge in Ya 'an. I can not only enjoy the scenery on both sides of the covered bridge, but also feel the peaceful life where Tibetans and Han people live in harmony?
