Life is like a journey, keep it simple and just leave. If you don’t see the world, how can the world come to see you? Dear traveler, say goodbye and go experience the beautiful scenery.
Arrive in Cixi, get in a friend’s car, and officially set off for Minghe Ancient Town. It takes about 40 minutes to drive from Cixi. You can also take "297" or "293" directly from Yuyao North Railway Station. After arriving at Guanhaiwei, it only takes 5 minutes to take a taxi.
The first thing I saw when I arrived at Minghe Ancient Town was Baiyang Lake. This lake with sparkling water in the sun suddenly occupied 100% of my perspective. The lotus leaves floating on the lake are next to each other, enjoying the sunbath.
In the scorching heat, the sanitation uncle was washing his hands by the lake and took the opportunity to go down and feel the water of Baiyang Lake. Well, there is also the smell of lotus leaves in the warmth.The ancient town is surrounded by mountains and streets, and the river forms a town. There are temples beside the town, and fishermen and farmers live along the river. The origin of the name "Whooping Crane" is related to the famous local Yu family in the early Tang Dynasty. The grandson of Yu Shinan, the great calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty, Yu Jiugao, also known as Minghe, was highly regarded for his literary talent when he was a teenager.Entering Minghe Ancient Town, the first check-in point is Jinxian Temple. This thousand-year-old temple has been destroyed several times, but its style remains the same. The sound of bells and chanting in the temple spread to all directions and rippled in the lake waves.
Continue walking inside, crossing this corridor and bridge, and a new "food" world suddenly pops up.
"New Year Cake Dumplings", "Mouse Candy Balls", and "Ice Powder". The most recommended dish here is rice cake dumplings. The rice cake skin is very elastic, soft and glutinous. If you like salty food, you can try the plum-flavored one, and if you like sweet food, you can try the sesame-flavored one. There are many fillings to choose from! It’s a killer for carb lovers. Of course, there are more than just these snacks, just for sale, waiting for everyone to explore on their own.
Xiaowufang-the best lane in the world
It was built by Ye Tianlin, a giant pharmaceutical businessman in Minghe Country, for his six sons. The Ye family has a total of six rooms in the house, and the fifth-room house is the one that is relatively well-preserved.
This is the "Wufang Lane", the best lane in the world, with many twists and turns, and only one person can pass through it in a narrow space. Grandma was talking about something trivial, probably about daily trivial matters.
The grandma in front of me is already in her 90s. But he was still in good health and stayed with me to introduce me to the history of the Ye family. "Here, the grapes were just taken out of the refrigerator. These are small biscuits. You're welcome. Do you smoke? There are cigarettes here..." Grandma's kindness made me feel the beautiful qualities of the people in the ancient town.I came across a coffee shop hidden at the end of the alley at the corner. I opened the dilapidated wooden door and saw another scene inside. The cello was leaning against the stove and the mirror fell in the corner of the yard. The whole cabin is filled with the aroma of coffee beans, so take a rest here~
The old man holding a fan and enjoying the cool talk, the kitten with squinting eyes, and the sleeping Xiao Huang.On the old stone road, the old man riding the bicycle didn't know where he was going. In the distance, the shirtless old man had just fetched a bucket of clear water from the well. The people walking on this road turned the years into poetry.
Take a small boat and hold an oar, travel through the green mountains and green waters. The two banks are mottled by wind and waves and the drifting of eternal tenderness. The clear water carries the traces of the passing years and vicissitudes. Such a water town can really give a restless heart a moment of comfort and soul So in the midst of the hustle and bustle, come and take a break from the noise.
