China has a long history, and there are many ancient towns with profound cultural heritage in the vast land. Beijing is the political, economic and cultural center of the country. There are many tourist attractions in Beijing that cannot be missed, but many people do not know that Beijing also has a thousand-year-old town comparable to the Meijiang River. For example, Gubei Water Town in Miyun District, Liulihe Town in Fangshan District, Dongba Ancient Town in the eastern suburbs, Mafang Temple in the east, Wangsiying in Daliushu in the west, Dushan Lianhua Peak in the back, Qingshui River in front Lingshui Village, etc., etc. . . . However, Jiuduhe Town, located in the southwest of Huairou District, Beijing, is the one with the most cultural relics and historical sites and the most abundant and dense tourism resources.
In the Northern Wei Dynasty in 525 A.D., Jiuduhe Town was recorded, and it has a history of nearly 1,500 years. "There are mountains, waters, and the Great Wall, and red tourism accompanies it" is a distinctive feature of the tourism scenery of Jiuduhe Town. The 10.8-kilometer ancient Great Wall spans from east to west, with five entrances, three passes and one ancient city, which has become the Great North Gate of the capital in history. The two reservoirs of Huanghuacheng and Xishuiyu at the Great Wall Pass are arranged in two places, and a Huaijiu River is distributed throughout the town. When you come to Jiuduhe Town, you can not only appreciate the natural scenery of towering peaks and cliffs, but also go boating in the green mountains and beautiful waters of Xiaoxi Lake and Jintang Lake. Listen to the ancient bells of Yanshou Temple, climb up and take a look at the picturesque Great Wall, and go to the Yanqi Lake APEC Convention and Exhibition Center, which is only 20 kilometers away, to feel the sparks of the collision between modern civilization and primitive ecology. In addition, Miaoshang Village, the birthplace of the first party branch in Pingbei, known as "Xibaipo" in the suburbs of Beijing, remembers the revolutionary martyrs and receives revolutionary traditional education. Of course, the best experience in Jiuduhe is to walk into a B&B, eat a farm meal, stay in a farmyard for a few nights, and feel the simple and natural style of the garden-style petty bourgeoisie courtyard.
For example, the water source Jiudu in Jiuduhe Village is one of them that is very recommended. What makes you fall in love with it is not only the exquisite small courtyard, the white spiral staircase leading to the terrace on the second floor. Not only the front yard and backyard full of flowers and green plants, but also because there are highlights, feelings, and moving stories here...
The owner of the B&B is named Jing Jing, a mountain native born and raised here. Nine Degrees of Water Source was designed and reconstructed by herself by using old local houses. The yard is only 160 square meters in total, and it can be said that she takes care of it in a small and exquisite way, which makes people like it at the first glance.
In particular, the water system built with three pig troughs stacked on top of each other is the most special. When they came from the village, the villagers were all puzzled. When they saw that it could be used in such a way, they were so surprised that they were dumbfounded.
Entering the house, in addition to the simple decoration, what catches the eye is the uniquely shaped ornaments, such as Tengchong volcanic stone, Burmese mahogany, Populus euphratica bark, two-color thuja, etc. Without losing content. The owner said that these were all carried by her in human flesh, just to add more cultural color to the place.
Jing Jing hoped that the guests who came to the B&B could see the mountains and the scenery at any time, so she abandoned the original small windows of the old house and replaced them with oversized floor-to-ceiling windowsills. So, whether you are in a restaurant or a tea room, even in the kitchen you will feel as if you have melted into the beautiful nature.
Especially the guest rooms here, 2 double bed rooms, 1 tatami mat, are transparent and bright, warm and comfortable, and have independent bathrooms. Not to mention the complete supporting facilities, just the design of the floor-to-ceiling bay window can realize your wish to sleep until you wake up "naturally".
The spacious terrace will take you into a wide field of vision, where you can chat and play cards with friends, and feel at ease. Gazing at the Dayang Mountain standing in the distance, the clouds and mist covered the pines all over the mountain, filled with mystery and tranquility, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. When the sunset shines red on the sky, snuggle up with your lover on the rocking chair, watch the ever-changing sunset, and enjoy this rare half-day leisure!
The delicacies here are even more mouth-watering: oil chestnuts are used to nourish the kidneys, walnuts are used to strengthen the brain, and donkey meat is used to strengthen the body. Shown without reservation.
In spring, the back garden is full of purple lavender, in summer it is a lush green vegetable garden, in autumn the chrysanthemums are especially bright in the sun, and in winter there is snow covering the mountains. The change of seasons depicts different colors, and the only thing that remains the same is the secluded and secluded courtyard that is yearning for at Jiudu Shuiyuan.
One day, you want to breathe the fresh air, lazily lean against the afternoon sun, let time stop like this, and feel the abundance and beauty that the years have brought us alone. One day you want to bring the whole family and your non-discardable pets to enjoy a moment of happy time, or sip tea, or sip coffee, or enjoy delicious food, or watch the beautiful scenery outside the window, and listen to the call of the distant mountains...Water source The door of nine degrees will open for you at any time.
