Green? Prose-Looking at Autumn in Erdaobaihe River

Speaking of Erdaobaihe, many people may not know where it is. If Changbai Mountain is mentioned, more people may know it.

Erdaobaihe is the first gateway at the northern foot of Changbai Mountain and a small town near the northern part of Changbai Mountain. Dragon in the east, Dunhua in the north, baishan city in the west, Changbai Mountain and Korea in the south. In the south of Antu County, Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture, Changbai Mountain can be reached in less than 20 minutes by car.

Taking advantage of the crisp autumn, I drove 200 kilometers with my wife and children, and arrived at Erdaobaihe Town via Longjing and Helong.

The speed along National Highway 334 is not as fast as that in expressway, and the speed is often limited. So, stop and go along the way and enjoy the endless autumn scenery in the northeast.

The northeast national highway in autumn is a kind of enjoyment on the road. In particular, this two-section expressway is free, and there are not many vehicles on the national highway. You can drive leisurely and look at the yellow leaves floating on both sides, or you can look at the rivers winding along the national highway. You can even stop at a colorful place to take some photos.

Perhaps it is influenced by the topography of Changbai Mountain range, and the national highway is also ups and downs. However, this increases the fun of driving around the corner to see the autumn scenery. Like a screen, extending to the end of the bend, people can't help but want to take a deep look.

Driving to the junction of He Long and Erdaobai River is the magical world of the famous tourist area. Because the weather is good, I can't see its magic, which makes people feel lighter and less domineering than its name.

Passing by the old Lake Rick, we didn't get off, just watched from a distance. Because the trees blocked it, we didn't even see its corner, but we did see a river flashing in the forest, shuttling between green, yellow and red.

We take it for granted that this is an outflow from Old Lake Rick or is about to flow in. After all, driving in the mountains, surrounded by big trees, is difficult to tell the direction. Follow the river, and then enter the pioneer forest farm. Trees become more lush and the temperature drops gradually.

Fortunately, the weather is fine, the sky is blue, and there are a few white clouds floating. There are road signs in front of the windshield, and the signs are obvious. On both sides of the road, one or two maple trees are hidden in the semi-yellow mottle, suddenly revealing the red color of the trees, which makes the meaning of autumn more intense.

Sunlight spilled into the car through the cracks in the leaves. Obviously, the temperature outside has become lower. Because the window is closed and the air conditioner is turned on, the sunshine is unusually warm.

Passing through several gas stations and construction sites, I saw some aesthetic fatigue in the trees on both sides. Navigation took us to the office building of Erdaohe Town Government, and then said goodbye to us happily.

At first glance, three and a half hours passed, but in the sparsely populated town government, my wife and I were dumbfounded. Is this Erdaobaihe River? Is there not even a place to eat around the town government? Isn't it said that Erdaobaihe has as many as 32 scenic spots? Where is it?

With a series of questions, we began to ask for directions. Fortunately, Changbai Mountain Tourism Consulting Service Center is nearby, so under their guidance, we drove along the highway and came to the town center. This town really feels like a fake town, comparable to a small city, at least it should be the size of a county-level city (although the population has not reached, the area is really large).

There are various levels of hotels here, ranging from five-star to two-star, as well as family standard rooms or ethnic homestays. As long as you are willing, there is always accommodation that meets your requirements. Finding a parking space at this time can show that the more expensive the hotel is, the more people there are. After all, it is safe and comfortable for rich people to travel. And we found a place where we can park, which is close to all the scenic spots in the town and cost-effective. After all, we are not rich.

As soon as I settled down, I saw someone riding a big red horse in the street and walking slowly along the road. That big horse is half white and half black. A closer look shows that all the riders are beautiful women wearing black hats, riding boots and white gloves. Everyone wears sunglasses, which hides their good looks. In the shadow of the blue sky and yellow leaves, the red dress with a horse is really eye-catching. In order to attract tourists, this Erdaohe town seems to have made great efforts.

After eating in the network celebrity street, the sky gradually darkened. I have to say that after the autumnal equinox, the days become very short. Before five o'clock, the street lamp was on, and the temperature outside was as low as single digits. Occasionally, a small wind blows, which makes people feel a little cold.

The area of Changbaishan Meirensong International Sculpture Park in this town is really large. With the singing of KTV in the distance, my wife and I took two babies and went straight to that scenic spot in the dark. There are all kinds of sculptures in this scenic spot, including the physical Huluwa brothers, the Ma Benteng with white lines, and even more abstract sculptures, which I can't name.

These sculptures are hidden among beautiful pine trees, red pine needles fall to the ground, and the path winds up from these pine needles until a small lake appears not far ahead. The lake reflects the yellow masson pine opposite, and there are some unfinished glow, which is beautiful. Such a free park, no matter its design or its scenery, is unforgettable.

Along the road of the park, in the twilight and in the cool autumn, I unconsciously became another scenic spot covered bridge of Erdaobai River. The white light in the distance meanders along the covered bridge, extending from one end of the road to the other, slowly ascending, then turning around and continuing to ascend, reaching a sightseeing platform with a glass bottom. This sightseeing platform is made of steel, swaying slightly in the night wind, with transparent glass under its feet. It really takes some courage to stand on it.

If you really look at the scenery of these two white rivers wholeheartedly, you will be instantly attracted by the surrounding night, especially the fading but struggling glimmer of the horizon. It is such a scene that people can remember more autumn memories. Invisibly, the autumn colors of Erdaobaihe River are more meaningful and valuable.

This small town has her charm, but the time is too short to get close. It was getting late, and she had to turn back to the hotel with the yawning of the little beast.

Fortunately, the sunrise time in the northeast is earlier. My wife and I agreed to get up early the next day, have a good look at the dense beauty pines around Erdaobaihe Town, and then go to other places while it is still early. After all, there are many mountain roads, so you should go home early before dawn.

At five o'clock in the morning, the sun slanted in through the gap in the curtain. The weather forecast says it will be cloudy today, but judging from this light, it should be fine. So, I curiously opened a corner of the curtain. The sun in the east is bright, but the clouds in the west are thick in You Lan. With years of experience in dealing with the weather, it seems that it will rain within two hours.

I was very happy at the moment, and I was a little depressed. I just hoped that I was inexperienced and misjudged. Watching his wife dress the little beast who got up early, Dabao also finished washing, thinking that he might be able to make it after breakfast. With two babies, the morning passed quickly, and an hour later, I went downstairs. After breakfast, it began to rain outside and the temperature dropped further.

My wife and children looked at the weather and were a little unwilling. The weather was fine yesterday, but it changed today. It was late yesterday, and it was dark before we started playing. Actually, I'm even more reluctant. I intend to go back to the south after I get married and have children at the end of the year. I have no time to come because of my busy work. I have time to come this time, but I can't come before the end of the year, because the weather is likely to change from raindrops to snowflakes, especially the national highway passing through Changbai Mountain. It may not be snowing. At this time, driving is already very dangerous.

I didn't discuss this with my wife. When I saw her with two children, walking towards Meirensong Park in the slight rain, I kept up with the pace. In fact, it is nothing more than watching the scenery again during the day. Looking at these beautiful pine trees in the autumn rain, my heart is also lonely.

Letting go is still a small animal, whether it rains or not, as long as there is a play, it will not affect the mood at all. Dabao, too, takes a mobile phone as a camera, taking one in the east and one in the west. It's just that the rain is mixed with the wind and it feels colder and colder. I'm afraid the little beast will get sick and catch a cold. After all, no one dares to heat up the children at this juncture, even the hospital. Even coaxed the cheerful little beast back, went to the supermarket to buy food on the way and used it to calm her down.

I checked out before nine o'clock in the morning. I'm really afraid that the way back will be blocked and it will snow heavily. It's dangerous to cross the mountain road without changing the snow tires. After all, the whole family is in the car. It's not about driving skills. It is better to avoid the dangers that can be avoided when going out.

With a little regret, I set up the navigation and drove back in the autumn rain.

When it comes to talking, the autumn scenery is full of eyes. This time, it is wrapped in autumn rain and winter snow, which is actually a different flavor.

After leaving Erdaobaihe Town, it began to rain heavily. Even though the wiper kept sweeping the water on the windshield, I still couldn't see the scenery clearly, so my wife and I made an appointment to go to Changbai Mountain Tianchi for a group tour on 20 14.

I may or may not have passed Erdaobaihe Town at that time. I don't remember exactly. We only remember that Dabao was as big as a small animal at that time, and was wet by the rain at the top of Tianchi Lake. However, Tianchi did not even see the shadow, all hidden in the clouds. Because I can't stand the changeable weather and low temperature, I regret returning in the heavy rain like today.

This time, it may be better. After all, Changbai Mountain didn't go because it was closed. Just to come to Erdaohe to see autumn scenery, even if I go back like this, I haven't been there last time, so it's not that hard to forget. The speed is not fast, and there seem to be more cars coming back than when they came. Maybe everyone wants to go together. Go back early and you won't be stuck in the traffic.

When the car entered the Pioneer Forest Farm, snowflakes began to float in the sky and landed on the windshield. Instead of falling like raindrops, they were scraped aside by the wiper, and traces of ice could be seen. Driving straight ahead, I can't tell the difference between the underworld and the old Lake Lake Lake. All I know is that when I came, both sides of the road were colorful, but now, they are all wrapped in silver, and what's more frightening is that there is a thin layer of fog.

The biggest advantage of driving and following a car is that you won't get lost in this silver world. Look at the car in front of you, it's a double flash, so I'll draw a gourd ladle. After all, there are many bends in the mountain road, so the car in front can't see the sign line on the ground. It's good to have position lamp to remind you. Keep the distance from the car in front, keep the same speed, and start to see the winter scenery this autumn.

Mist enveloped the forest, and the trees not covered by snowflakes shyly showed a little red, like a shy bride wearing a white scarf. A magical feeling arises spontaneously. Perhaps the tourist name of this underworld comes from this, but compared with the rime photos I saw from my friends in winter, it seems to be another feeling. This feeling belongs to late autumn, not winter. Because it is still smart, as if it were a fairy tale or fairy tale in the dreamland of rain, snow and fog.

If it weren't for the flashing lights all the way, but in this dreamland of stop for a minute, you might be obsessed with this scenery. Qiu Jingtu with winter elements seems to have entered another world and opened another door. In short, the unwillingness and regret of Erdaohe's rise disappeared under the snow.

After Erdaobaihe entered the border with Longdi, it was far away from the other side of the mountain, and the snowflakes in the sky gradually turned into raindrops, which were much smaller. I heard my wife give a long sigh. After all, it's not far from home after crossing the national highway with soft roadbed.
