D2, 2020.8.1 Kunming Guandu Ancient Town Qianwang Street

After breakfast, take a taxi to Guandu Ancient Town

Guandu Ancient Town with a long history is located in the southeastern suburb of Kunming. It is one of the famous historical and cultural ancient towns in Kunming. There are many cultural relics here. Within an area of ​​less than 1.5 square kilometers, there are Wushan Mountains, Six temples, seven pavilions, eight temples and many other landscapes

The "Miaozhan Temple", the first of the six temples in Guandu, was built from the Yuan Dynasty to the 27th year of the Yuan Dynasty (1290), and was completed in 1295. It was later collapsed due to flooding, and was relocated to the center of the current ancient town in 1325.

There are two 13-story solid square brick pagodas with dense eaves in the east and west in the temple, with a height of 13.6 meters. It was first built in the Yuanzhen period, and the earthquake in the 13th year of Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty (1833), the west tower was destroyed, and only the east tower remained. The West Tower was rebuilt in 2002

There is a Gallo on each side of the top of the tower, commonly known as "Golden Rooster", so it is also called "Golden Rooster Pagoda".

Among the religious buildings in Guandu Ancient Town, the most famous and eye-catching one is the Vajra Throne Pagoda in front of Miaozhan Temple, a national key cultural relic protection unit.

The King Kong Pagoda was built in the second year of Mingshun (AD 1458), and the damaged part was repaired due to the earthquake in the thirty-fifth year of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (AD 1696). In 2001, the overall lifting and maintenance of the tower body soaked in groundwater was carried out, and the lifting was 2.6 meters above the original site

The Vajra Throne Pagoda is built of sand and stone as a whole. It consists of two parts: the base and the tower body. The base is square, and the bottom spans the sky. On the base, five towers rise. A main tower with a height of 16 meters is built in the center, and small towers with a height of 8.84 meters are built at the four corners. The main tower is magnificent and the small tower is exquisite. Both the main tower and the small tower are composed of Xumizuo, tower body, tower neck and tower brake, but they have different styles and styles. The big and small pagodas are in harmony with each other, like mushrooms springing up, competing to break through the ground. The image is light and pretty, with a flying beauty.

Guandu is the landing place of Tibetan Buddhism in Kunming. The stone pagoda of Miaozhan Temple has left a deep imprint of Tibetan Buddhism, which is clearly reflected in the Lama pagoda-style pagoda. The Vajra Pagoda is the only one in the whole country. It is of great significance to study the architectural art of Tantric Buddhism after the Yuan Dynasty.

Fafa Temple was first built in the Song Dynasty, and has been rebuilt and rebuilt many times. The existing main hall was rebuilt in the early Qing Dynasty. Sitting north and facing south, the temple has three entrances, consisting of wing rooms and side halls. The main hall has a single eaves resting on the top of the mountain. The scale of the building is small, but the frame is high. The biggest feature of the hall is the 45-degree wing-shaped arches of the bucket arches. The top of the column is decorated with wood-carved unicorns, and the corners of the beams are carved in the shape of a phoenix bird, which is vivid in shape.

other ancient buildings

The new Yunnan Provincial Museum is located on the south side of Guandu Ancient Town. It was officially completed and opened on May 18, 2015. The building of the new museum is inspired by the "one seal" of traditional houses in Yunnan, and its shape is derived from the weathered landform features of the stone forest.

At the entrance of the museum stands the "Doc Garuda" (replica), one of the treasures of the museum.

The "Garuda Dapeng" was unearthed from the Qianxun Pagoda of Chongsheng Temple in Dali. Its head is decorated with a feather crest, its two claws are sharp, and there is a hollow flame-shaped backlight inserted between its tail and body. The whole vessel is gilded, and decorated with 5 crystal beads, which is precious and elegant.

The Yunnan Provincial Museum has a collection of more than 200,000 cultural relics. There are currently 6 basic and different types of special exhibitions, including "Yunnan History and Civilization", which are arranged on the first to third floors, with more than 1,000 cultural relics on display. It presents the natural history of Yunnan, human evolution, the Neolithic Age, the ancient Yunnan Bronze Civilization, Nanzhao Dali Kingdom, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties to modern Yunnan history

We focused on visiting the Neolithic Ancient Yunnan Exhibition Hall on the 2nd floor and the Warring States Bronze Civilization Exhibition Hall. Unfortunately, the Nanzhao Dali Kingdom Exhibition Hall on the 3rd floor was closed, and we missed the chance to see the "Garuda" style

"Chicken-Shaped Pottery Pot" (Yuan Da 566)

It is made of sandy gray pottery, stamped with dotted and lined lines on the body, and decorated with plastic breast patterns on the back and tail. This pot is shaped like a rooster with its head up and its tail up. It is exquisitely made and ingeniously conceived. Representative pottery.

"Three Terracotta Copper Lamps" (Western Han Dynasty)

The vessel is 42 centimeters high and was unearthed in Heimai Well, Gejiu City. It looks like a naked male figurine sitting on his knees, with his hands stretched out, and a lamp panel on his head and hands. The terracotta lamp is composed of four parts. The arms and head can be separated from the torso. The seams are neat, the shape is accurate, and the lines are smooth. Although the terracotta lamp is a Han-style theme, the image of kneeling terracotta figures has obvious local ethnic characteristics, and it is a cultural relic that combines Han culture and local culture.

"Bull and Tiger Bronze Case" (Warring States Period)

It was unearthed in Lijiashan ancient tombs in Jiangchuan County in 1972. The case, also known as "Zu", is a ritual vessel for placing meat sacrifices in ancient China. The cattle and tiger case is used to sacrifice cattle and animals, which is the most important sacrifice in ancient sacrifices. Because cattle are the first of the "three animals" sacrificed, tigers have a high status in Dian culture. They often stand on the top of the copper pillars worshiped by Dian people and are objects of worship.

The Warring States Ox and Tiger Bronze Case is a masterpiece of Yunnan bronze culture and art, and it is also the treasure of the Yunnan Provincial Museum. The main body of the utensil is a big cow, standing upright, with its horns flying up, its back naturally falling into the case, and the tail is decorated with a scaled-down tiger, which is climbing and biting the tail of the cow with its mouth open; Only standing calves.

The big cow and the little tiger are molded and formed at one time, while the little cow is cast separately and then welded under the belly of the big cow. As a sacrificial vessel of the Dian Kingdom, the Niuhu Bronze Table has reached a very high level in terms of mechanics and aesthetics, and is almost perfect.

"Bronze Four Bulls and Gilt Knights" Shell Repository (Western Han Dynasty)

Unearthed from Tomb No. 10, Shizhaishan, Jinning County, it is a treasure among the ancient Dian bronzes in the collection. Tiger-shaped ears are decorated on both sides of the shell holder, and there are four running cows and a knight riding a tall horse on the cover. The shape of the utensil is vivid and the style is distinctive.

The shell container is a unique bronze ware of Dian Kingdom, which has strong local characteristics and national style. The reason why Shizhaishan Bronze Culture is famous far and wide has a lot to do with the unearthed many exquisite shell storage vessels. The shell container is mainly used to hold the currency-shells, and also has high artistic aesthetic value. The cover of the shell container is decorated with many three-dimensional statues, including figures and animals, using the technique of separate casting and welding.

After the visit, we went back to the hotel for a short rest, and then we came to Qianwang Street in the center of Kunming

Qianwang Street is located in the old street of Kunming. It is named after Wang Chi (known as "Qian Wang"), the founder of Yunnan's financial industry and national industry in the late Qing Dynasty, opened the "Tongqingfeng Bank" here. Qianwang Street is only 400 meters short, but it gathers cultural relics protection units such as "Ma's Courtyard", "Fuchunheng Company", "Fu's House".

Ma’s Courtyard, Ma’s House, the first mayor of Kunming, is the most well-preserved classic building of the Bai people’s dwellings in the urban area of ​​Kunming.

The Ma Family Courtyard was built in 1923, facing south from north, with a total area of ​​1146 square meters.

The courtyard is a two-storey wooden building connected in four directions, with a 200-square-meter bluestone patio in the middle, with exquisite craftsmanship of carved beams and painted columns, which is a classic building of Bai people's houses

The former site of "Fuchunheng Company", built in 1924, has a broad and magnificent main gate in the form of a character of eight, and the original brick carvings and figure statues have been destroyed. It's a pity that the gate is closed and it is impossible to visit inside. Fuchunheng Company was founded in the second year of Guangxu (1876) by Jiang Zonghan, the general soldier of Qing Tengyue. Mainly engaged in silk, jewelry, medicinal materials, native products, etc., and concurrently engaged in bank exchange business. In 1928, the head office was moved to the main house, and it closed down in 1937.

Fu's house, built in 1931, was named because the original owner was Fu Taizhi, a ham businessman.

The total area of ​​the house is 375 square meters, facing south from the north, presenting a pattern of "three rooms, four ears and eight feet upside down", which is a typical "one seal" dwelling. The flower shop under the eaves, the head-holding beams, the vertical columns and the lattice door all have gilded wood carvings with exquisite craftsmanship.

There are pavilions with single eaves and four corners with pointed roofs on the east and west terraces of the three floors, and ceramic vase railings are set on the top of the pavilions and the screen walls.

Among the modern residential buildings in Kunming, Fu's House is a unique one. On an area of ​​only 170 square meters, the builder integrated classical and modern, traditional and Western styles, houses and pavilions, imaginative and harmonious. Build skills. In 2006, due to the needs of overall protection and construction, it moved 30 meters west from the original site.

And I fell in love with this small and exquisite house in an instant, so I ordered a pot of tea and sat quietly on the terrace on the third floor for a while.

Sitting until the lights come on, the Fu’s house in the night presents another kind of beauty

Tongqingfeng bank founded by Qian Wang "Wang Chi"

Wang Chi (1836-1903), born in the Eighteenth Village of Maitreya (now Hongxi Town), is the fourth eldest, known as the "Fourth King in Southern Yunnan". When he was young, he ran a caravan, engaged in the trade of tea, tobacco leaves, fur, etc., and later opened the "Tian Shunxiang" ticket office in Chongqing, which gradually spread to 15 major provinces and cities in China, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, France, and the United Kingdom. Kunming (now No. 108 Qianwang Street) established the "Tongqingfeng" ticket number, and set "Tongqingfeng" as the national general number, and the others as semicolons, according to the statistics of the British "Times". At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, Wang Chi ranked fourth among the top ten richest people in the world, and was honored as the "King of Money" by the people.

Because of his contributions to the country, the people and commerce, he was awarded the official title of "Three Generations and One Product" in 1893. He was the only one-pin red-top businessman in the late Qing Dynasty and even the feudal society of China.

D3, 2020.8.2 Kunming - Maitreya - Jianshui Ancient City

After breakfast, head to Maitreya, drive for about 2 hours to arrive at Maitreya "Oriental Charm Scenic Spot", which is an art town integrating leisure vacation and ecological sightseeing.

The buildings in the scenic area are mainly made of locally produced red bricks, which are very design sense. It is said that there is not even a draft of the internal buildings of the scenic spot, so you can move as you like. Such a seemingly disorderly building was designed by a "strange man" who was born in Maitreya. He mixed three local cultures into it. Cultural buildings and symbiotic cultural buildings.

It should be said that this place is more suitable for online celebrity check-in and travel photography

This small rice noodle shop does not look good, but the local chicken rice noodles are really delicious. The local chicken is very fragrant and the soup is also very delicious.

After lunch, proceed to Jianshui Ancient City.

The earliest railway built by China itself, the smallest railway in history, the slowest railway, the longest railway, and the only private railway in Chinese history. These records record the most proud and exciting period in the history of Yunnan railways. According to legend, this railway named Gebishi has created many miracles and records.

In May 1915, the construction of the Gebishi Railway started. A hundred years later, in 2015, on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the opening of the Gebishi Railway, a demonstration project for the protection, development and utilization of the Yunnan meter-gauge railway jointly developed by the Kunming Railway Bureau and Jianshui- -The small train in Jianshui Ancient City started running on May 1 on the meter-gauge railway after the reconstruction of the line between Jianshuidong and Tuanshan on the Gebishi Railway.

The Jianshui Ancient City Train has four stations, namely Lin'an Station, Shuanglongqiao Station, Xianghuiqiao Station and Tuanshan Station, which pass through Lin'an Town and Xizhuang Town respectively. There are many historical, cultural and scenic spots in these two tourist towns. connected by a rail.

According to the original plan, we should take the small train to the ancient town of Tuanshan tomorrow. Unexpectedly, we were temporarily notified that the line will be overhauled tomorrow, and the small train will not run. We can only plan ahead of time and experience this ancient station before the station gets off work. So I lost the opportunity to take the small train, sorry~

old platform

The last train has come in

The Jianshui Seventeen-Arch Bridge, commonly known as the Shuanglong Bridge, spans the junction of the Lujiang River and the Tachong River. This ancient bridge was built in the Qing Dynasty, with a total of 17 holes connected. There are three-story pavilions on the bridge, which looks ancient and very style.

Shuanglong Bridge is a multi-hole multi-arch bridge with the largest scale and the highest artistic value among ancient bridges in Yunnan. It inherits the characteristics of bridge architectural style in my country, integrates bridge construction science and plastic arts, and embodies the superb technology and wisdom of the people in southern Yunnan. , is a masterpiece of ancient bridges in our country and occupies an important position in the history of ancient bridges in our country.

D4, 2020.8.3 Jianshui Ancient City-Tuanshan Ancient Town-Puzhehei

Jianshui City was first built as an earthen city during the Nanzhao period, and was expanded into a brick city in the 20th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1387). In 1994, Jianshui was approved by the State Council as the third batch of famous historical and cultural cities in China. After 12 centuries of construction, Jianshui has preserved more than 50 ancient buildings and is known as the "Museum of Ancient Architecture" and "Museum of Folk Houses".

Zhujia Garden is located in the middle section of Hanlin Street in the center of Jianshui ancient city. It was built in the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. It was the home and ancestral hall built by the local gentry Zhu Weiqing brothers in the late Qing Dynasty.

Zhu's Garden covers an area of ​​more than 20,000 square meters, of which the house covers an area of ​​more than 5,000 square meters. The main building is in a "three vertical and four horizontal" layout. , The layout is exquisite.

The whole group of buildings is exquisite and elegant with bucket ridges and cornices, carved beams and painted buildings. The layout of courtyard halls is reasonable, and the spatial landscape is rich in layers and endlessly changing, forming a labyrinthine building complex.

The Zhujia Garden has 214 houses with 42 large and small patios, and it enjoys the title of "Grand View Garden in Southern Yunnan".

After the visit, drive to Tuanshan Village.

Tuanshan, which means "a land of gold and silver" in Yi language, is 13 kilometers away from Jianshui County. The village is built on a sloping land, backed by stretching green hills, and is a village inhabited by members of the Zhang surname.

According to Zhang's genealogy records, during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Fu, the ancestor of the Zhang surname, entered Yunnan through trade from Poyang County, Raozhou Prefecture, Jiangxi. . After settling down, Zhang Fu worked hard and worked hard, leaving behind the family motto of "Hundred Endurance" for future generations. The members of the Zhang clan follow the "Hundred Endurance Family Tradition" as their criterion, they are eager to learn and make progress, live and work in peace and contentment, and produce talents in large numbers.

During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, with the prosperity of the Gejiu tin industry, the descendants of the Zhang family left their hometown and started their factory career along the "Lin'an Avenue". After completing the primitive accumulation of capital, they immediately formed the "Tianjichang" firm and expanded their business to Kunming, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Haiphong in Vietnam have become one of the famous business names in southern Yunnan. After earning a lot of money, Tuanshan people formed horse teams one after another, carried stacks of silver back to their hometowns, built exquisite luxury houses, and injected infinite vitality into the ancient villages.

Tuanshan Village currently has 16 traditional dwellings, 4 village gates, 3 temples, and 1 ancestral hall, covering a total area of ​​18,384 square meters.

The general building was built in the thirty-first year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty (1905).

The owner Zhang He's father died when he was very young, and his mother raised him. When he was 6 years old, his mother sent him to an old mine to work for his cousin. After growing up, Zhang He has a forthright personality, is fair, and is very good at helping people resolve disputes. He has a high reputation in Lin'an and Gejiu. Later, Zhang He made great contributions to suppressing the bandits in the "Xinhai Lin'an" Uprising, and was appointed by Cai E, the governor of Yunnan, as "the leader and inspector of the Fourth Battalion of the National Army" and awarded the "General" plaque on the gate of Zhang's mansion. It is the origin of "general number".

Beautiful carvings on the lintel

The lion carved on the left of Figure 1 means "thinking left" and the elephant carved on the right of Figure 2 means "thinking right".

In picture 2, there is a horse carved under the elephant, and in picture 1, there are two lifelike monkeys carved under the lion, which means "immediately seal the prince".

The house is already very dilapidated, but the ancient and exquisite wood carvings, carefully painted beams, columns and brackets, through the thick dust, can still imagine the prosperity of the past

Gilded five blessings (bats) coming to the door

Walking in the alleys of the ancient Tuanshan Village, time seems to have stopped

The Zhang Family Garden was first built in the 31st year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty (1905), covering an area of ​​3495 square meters. It consists of Zhaimen, the first courtyard, the third courtyard, garden ancestral halls and bunkers. There are 21 large and small patios and 119 rooms. It is a group of castle-style private gardens, and it is another large-scale residential building second only to Zhu's Garden in Jianshui County.

The house builders Zhang Guoyi and Zhang Guomin drove horses to make a living in their early years, and later became rich by mining and doing business in Gejiu. They sent money back to their hometowns to build three houses and garden ancestral halls, and then repaired garden rockeries and courtyard walls, and built another house. , forming a group of residential buildings with "a village within a village".

After the founding of New China, the old houses of the big families in Tuanshan were distributed to the poor, so not all ancient houses can be visited. The famous Zhangjia Garden, we also mainly visited the Garden Ancestral Hall

Through the circular porch, there's a hole inside

The garden ancestral hall was first built in the 31st year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty (1905). It is a group of garden-style buildings. The "stilted buildings" on both sides face each other from left to right, and the "beauty leaning" is placed along the corridor, which is a place where you can enjoy the cool, calm your mind, and cultivate yourself. There is a pond under it, and the lotus flowers are in full bloom.

The beams of the ancestral hall are decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, which are solemn and elegant. The themes are wonderful stories such as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin

Looking at the wood carvings on this beam, it not only shows the level of craftsmen at that time, but also shows the wealth of the Zhang family back then.

At the bottom of the colonnade, there are four stone lions around, echoing the round shape of the pier, so it is called "Lion Rolling Hydrangea". The shape of the stone lions is vivid and lifelike.

Beizhai Gate of Tuanshan Village--Suocui Building 

The gate of the village is condescending and connected to the main road in the village. There are lookout posts and gun holes on the upper and lower floors, which are easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is a fortification in the north of Tuanshan Village.

Liuyuan, built in the early period of the Republic of China, covers an area of ​​487 square meters, with a construction area of ​​567 square meters, including 2 patios and 17 houses. After liberation, it was used as the village office and office, and is now renamed "Liuyuan".

There are three old objects in Liuyuan that are worth seeing, a wall clock, a transformer, and a sink dug out of a whole stone.

Zhang's ancestral hall was built in the forty-eighth year of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty (1783)

At the entrance, there is engraved Zhang's ancestral motto "Don't say anything short of others, don't talk about your own strengths; don't talk about the kindness you give, and never forget the kindness you receive." These principles of life are not outdated even in modern times.

The ancestral hall is simple in shape, and it is a place for members of the Zhang clan to discuss affairs and regularly worship their ancestors. In the past, major events in the village or mediation of disputes were carried out in the ancestral hall

The former supply and marketing cooperative, today's canteen

Huangen Mansion was first built in the late Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty and completed in the first year of Xuantong (1909). Because the mother of Zhang Shuyuan, the builder of the house, "helped the orphans to be established, the children and grandchildren will help each other, and the five generations live together", it is deeply respected by the villagers and established by the court. Feng'anren allowed him to set up a square and enter the temple, and sealed the plaque of "Huang En Jing Biao", hence the name.

The house is composed of two large courtyards, 6 small courtyards, and a two-entry courtyard with six aisles. There are 37 rooms, which is a typical representative of the layout of two-entry courtyards in Tuanshan folk houses.

The courtyard is spacious and open, the halls are exquisitely decorated, and the wood carvings on the doors and windows of Huang En Mansion, although covered with dust from more than a hundred years, are still exquisite. Carved relief, knife technique is precise, skillful, delicate, lifelike image, profound meaning.

Window carvings of bats, flower vases, bergamot, peaches, and the characters "Fu" and "Shou" imply that five blessings are coming to the door, that all directions are blessed, and that four seasons are safe, good fortune and longevity. There are also stories of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meeting on the magpie bridge and the Tang monk learning Buddhist scriptures.

Xiucai Mansion was first built in the late Qing Dynasty and completed in the 33rd year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu (1907). Because the houses Zhang Guijin and Zhang Guiming took the Lin'an Prefecture School Examination in their early years, they were awarded "Gongsheng" and "Xiangsheng" respectively, and were called "Gongsheng" by the villagers. "Great scholar" and "Second scholar", hence the name.

Later, the two brothers abandoned Confucianism to do business, ran the mining industry, organized the "Tianjichang" firm, made a lot of profits, and returned to the village to build houses. The calligraphy and paintings in the courtyard are all from the hands of famous southern Yunnan masters such as Wang Chuishu, Wang Xianbin, Tan Jingxuan, and Wang Kemin.

Due to time constraints, Sima Di did not visit inside.

After finishing the tour of Tuanshan folk houses, I am full of emotions. This is an edification of ancient architectural aesthetics and a different kind of traditional Chinese culture experience. It cultivates sentiment and enhances cultural self-confidence. It is really rewarding.

After eating a bowl of rice noodles at the entrance of Tuanshan Village, we set off for Puzhehei. It was already evening when we arrived in Puzhehei, so we checked into the hotel first.

The environment of the homestay is good

Lotus fish, very delicious

D5, 2020.8.4 Puzhehei 

Puzhehei is located in Qiubei County, Wenshan Zhuang and Miao Autonomous Prefecture. In 2013, "Where Are We Going, Dad" was filmed here and became well-known to everyone.

Woke up early, although the weather conditions are not good, but because it is the rainy season in Yunnan, the weather is unstable, with heavy rain for a while, and bright sun for a while, so we decided to go to Qinglong Mountain, looking forward to the panoramic sunrise of Puzhehei.

Qinglong Mountain is one of the peaks in the Puzhehei Scenic Area. It can overlook the Puzhehei Scenic Area. The mountain is not too high, but I am still out of breath. On the viewing platform at the top of the mountain, many people have already occupied the favorable terrain, and finally found a place to set up a tripod. The Puzhehei in the morning light is quiet and beautiful

The clouds are still thick, and there is only a hint of red in the sky

After a while, the sky started to turn gray and it began to rain lightly. The sunrise was over, let’s go down the mountain~

Puzhehei Lake is a freshwater lake with plateau corrosion structure. "Puzhehei" is a Yi language, meaning "a pond full of fish and shrimp".

The TV series "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" became popular here. The karst landform is just like the landscape of Guilin. Watching the mountains and rivers on both sides, the mountains and rivers on both sides are reflected on the calm lake, as if you are in a painting.

In Puzhehei in August, the lotus is in full bloom. In the afternoon, we took a bamboo raft to enter the depths of the lotus and went boating on the lake.

It is said that this white lotus is unique to Puzhehei

pastoral scenery

At sunset, under the leadership of the team leader, we came to a secret place to shoot the sunset. This is not a conventional shooting spot, there is no viewing platform, and there are no other tourists. On the distant mountains, the woods, lakes, and small islands in the lake are gradually lit up

Finally, the Huoshaoyun appeared in the sky, and the Huoshaoyun was reflected in the lake water, dyeing the lake water into a golden yellow, it was so beautiful

Today's day in Puzhehei was quite enjoyable, which was also due to a change in the itinerary. We originally planned to go to Bamei today, but because of the heavy rain during this period, the water level of the karst cave entering Bamei was too high and closed. We stayed in Puzhehei for two consecutive nights. It was this change that allowed us to have enough time in Puzhehei to play in depth and fully experience the beauty of Puzhehei. It can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. How can we know that it is not a blessing? Hehe~

D6, 2020.8.5 Puzhehei - Guangxi Ba

After breakfast, leave Puzhehei and go to Bama, Guangxi. Bama Yao Autonomous County in Guangxi is one of the five longevity towns in the world.

Today's drive is relatively long. After arriving in Bama, check in the hotel to rest, and then go to Bama Ming River to shoot the panoramic sunset.

Bama Ming River is located in Nashe Township, one of the sources of the Panyang River. Looking down from a height, it looks like a giant cursive "Ming" character inlaid in the vast fields. It is elegant and refined, which is amazing.

The Ming River has bred many birthday stars, and there are more than 80 elderly people over 100 years old along the bank, which is the source of life in Bama.

D7, 2020.8.6 Bama-Libo, Guizhou

Xiaoqikong Scenic Spot in Libo, Guizhou is located among the peaks more than 30 kilometers south of Libo County. The scenic spot has a total length of 7 kilometers. One of the most beautiful places in China.

Wolongtan is the outlet of the Wolong River, a karst underground river. It is named after the green water deep pool formed by the barrage, the rolling waterfall and the legendary Wolong. From the surface, it is only the source of the Wolong River. Later, it was introduced into the Xiangshui River due to damming to generate electricity, and became the total water source of the two rivers.

The water in the upper reaches looks very calm. In an instant, the green pool water pours down from the top of the dam like a silver bead curtain, hitting the boulders on the river bed and making a roaring sound, rushing to the distance, magnificent and beautiful.

Yuanyang Lake is a rare karst landform water forest area in the same latitude in the world. It consists of two large lakes and four small lakes connected in series to form a wonderful water network. The trees here are rooted in the stones in the water, and through the stones in the riverbed. There are stones, there are trees on the stones, and the trees are planted in the water. This wonderful scene of water, stones, and trees nestling together is breathtaking.

I remember the first time I came to go boating on Yuanyang Lake many years ago. I was rowed by the boatman and gave some brief introductions. This time it may be related to the epidemic. I have to do it all by myself. This is really difficult for us who lack exercise. , and for this reason, there are very few photos of Yuanyang Lake this time.

Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village is located in a typical river valley, with the crystal clear Baishui River passing through the village. For thousands of years, Xijiang Miao people have been farming here at sunrise and resting at sunset.

The buildings in the Miao Village are mainly wooden stilted buildings, which are of the bucket-shaped Xieshan roof structure.

In order to improve the feng shui conditions of the villages and to facilitate the life of the residents, most Miao villages have built Fengyu bridges near the villages to block the wind and store energy and shelter from the wind and rain. There used to be a wind and rain wooden bridge on the Xijiang River. Because it was a wooden structure, it was destroyed by floods after several repairs. In 2008, five Fengyu bridges were built in Xijiang, all of which were made of a mixed structure of cement and wood, which greatly enhanced the solidity and ability of resisting floods.

Today, these five wind and rain bridges have become a scenic spot of Xijiang Miao Village, and a popular place for tourists to take pictures

At around 10:00 in the morning, we left Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang and went to Guiyang. When we arrived in Guiyang, the trip was over, and the group members went back to their homes. And our itinerary is not over yet, when we arrived at Guiyang Airport, we directly got into a taxi and headed to Qingyan Ancient Town.

I got up early today, and a large number of tourists have not arrived at this time. At this time, the ancient town has lost its hustle and bustle and returned to a comfortable appearance.

Qingyan Ancient Town has profound cultural and historical background. During the Anti-Japanese War, after Japan occupied Wuhan, the Guiyang Traffic Station of the Eighth Route Army received a group of anti-Japanese revolutionary families who were transferred to Guiyang via Guilin. They were Zhou Enlai's father, Deng Yingchao's mother, Bogu's grandmother and youngest daughter. And so on, there were more than 20 people including martyr Jiang Shilian. Later, the Japanese army carried out a large-scale air raid on Guiyang, and the Eighth Route Army Guiyang Station in Qingyan rented many residential houses to resettle the revolutionary family members.

This is the place where Zhou Enlai's father, Mr. Zhou Maochen, lived at that time. The owner of the house is a family surnamed Ding.

Back Street is actually an old stone masonry house, connecting the Temple of Fortune to the east and Ciyun Temple to the west, connecting Neinan Street and West Street in Qingyan Ancient Town. The alleys are undulating and winding, without losing the rural flavor and the characteristics of urban streets and alleys. They are a model of streets and alleys in ancient towns in Guizhou.

The streets and alleys are built with strip stones, block stones, lump stones and irregular stones with glutinous rice paste, tung oil and lime. The use of stone materials and masonry methods are varied, making the detailed texture of the stone alleys very rich and free. With the characteristics of rules, it seems quiet and long.

During the Anti-Japanese War, Li Kenong's family and Meng Qingshu's family lived in the courtyard of this street. The movie "Looking for Guns" also left countless wonderful shots for the back street.

Ciyun Temple was first built in the Kangxi period and rebuilt in the 12th year of Daoguang (1832). The door is closed, not open to the outside world

It was built by Hakka people in Jiangxi in the forty-three years of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty (1778), and rebuilt in the third year of Jiaqing (1796) and the 12th year of Daoguang (1832). The whole palace consists of the main hall, side hall, hatchback theater and living area to form a large building complex.

Under the eaves of the theatrical building, there is an original wooden pier (commonly known as a vertical flower column) with a wooden openwork "Double Lions Fighting for Heroes" arch, which is really rare in ancient buildings in Guizhou, and it is a rare ancient architectural masterpiece.

Among them are "Hongmen Banquet", "Han Xin's order of troops", "ambush from ten sides", "besieged on all sides" and so on.

During the War of Resistance Against Japan, National Zhejiang University moved westward to Qingyan, where it once ran a school, leaving behind unforgettable feelings. The true relationship between the ancient town and Zhejiang University has been recorded in history and has been passed down to this day.

Zhao Lilun Centennial Archway, just a few steps away from Guangding Gate, was built in the 23rd year of Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty (1843). The archway is 9.5 meters high and 9 meters wide. It is built with Qingyan's local stone "white cotton stone", which is white in color and timeless. There are stone lion guardposts on the north and south of the four pillars. The height of the lion is 1.5 meters. There is no foundation groove for the archway, and it stands directly on the ground with four rectangular plinths, which lasts for 100 years.

The main feature of this square is that the four pillars holding drum stones are not "holding drums" but "stone lions". The eight stone lions all face up with their tails up and their heads down, just like lions going down a mountain. The art master Liu Haisu thought these stone lions were rare. fine art. Generally, stone lions tend to be squatting, majestic but dull, but the stone lions on Zhao Lilun's Centennial Square, the male lion playing treasure and the female lion protecting the cubs, echo each other and form an interesting contrast.

Wenchang Pavilion, No. 143, East Street, was built in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty and rebuilt in the Qianlong period. It is a brick and wood structure. It was a place where scholars in the old days often went to study, gather and pay homage to Emperor Wenchang. currently closed

As a military fortress and a special geographical location, Qingyan Ancient Town has been built and expanded many times. The city walls are built with stones, the streets and alleys are paved with stones, and the surrounding walls are built on cliffs with huge stones. There are four gates in the east, west, south and north.

Walking on the long bluestone road, some shops on both sides of the street have already started business, and the number of tourists on the street has gradually begun to increase.

There is a kind of life called Qingyan, it should be a kind of slow life that only belongs to Qingyan
