After eating, they headed to Jinli Ancient Street. There were many shops on both sides of the ancient street, and red lanterns hung high. There were not only various special snacks, but also traditional handicrafts. Zhang Yue stopped in front of a sugar painting stall.
Watching the artist draw exquisite patterns with syrup, I exclaimed: "This sugar painting is so beautiful, I feel like I can't bear to eat it."
Li Xiao was selecting Shu embroidery products at the side: "This Shu embroidery has delicate stitching, exquisite patterns, and is of great artistic value."
Lin Fei was interested in those small face-changing masks in Sichuan Opera. He put them on his face and teased Zhang Yue: "Watch me change my face, isn't it awesome?"
As night fell, they came to Kuanzhai Alley. The night in Kuanzhai Alley was very lively, with melodious music coming from the bars and street performers performing various performances. Zhang Yue took Li Xiao and Lin Fei into a teahouse and ordered a pot of tea.
Covering a bowl of tea, he said: "It is really pleasant to drink tea, watch performances and experience the slow life in this old teahouse in Chengdu."
They sat on bamboo chairs and watched the tea art performance and Sichuan opera face-changing on the stage. Li Xiao said to Zhang Yue: "The tea culture and opera culture in Chengdu are very unique and can make people relax physically and mentally."
Lin Fei took a sip of tea and frowned: "This tea is a bit bitter, but it's still not as good as Coke."
Zhang Yue rolled her eyes at him: "You know Coke, this tea needs to be tasted slowly to taste."
The next day, they went to the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding. As soon as they entered the base, they saw those naive giant pandas. Some were eating bamboo leisurely, and some were sleeping soundly in the trees. Zhang Yue looked like a child.
They all screamed: "It's so cute. This giant panda is so cute."
Li Xiao said with a smile: "This is Chengdu's national treasure, and it is loved all over the world."
Lin Fei kept taking pictures: "I want to take pictures of all these cute guys and use them as wallpaper."
They visited the panda delivery room, panda villa, etc. at the base, and learned about the living habits and breeding situation of giant pandas. Zhang Yue also bought a bunch of panda dolls and stationery at the panda souvenir shop: "Bring these back to the children, they will definitely
I’ll be very happy.”
As their trip in Chengdu came to an end, they were about to embark on a new journey. At the station, Zhang Yue reluctantly said: "Chengdu is such a good place, with lots of delicious food and profound cultural heritage. I really want to stay a few more days."
"
Li Xiao said: "Every city has its unique charm, and there are still many places we have not visited."
Lin Fei said with great expectation: "How exciting will the next stop be?" Continue to Chapter 4: Trip to Dali
The train slowly pulled into Dali Station. Li Xiao, Zhang Yue and Lin Fei stepped out of the carriage and were embraced by the clear sky and bright sunshine of Dali.
"Wow, the sky in Dali is so blue. I feel so close to the clouds." Zhang Yue raised her head, her eyes full of joy.
Lin Fei stretched out his arms and took a deep breath of fresh air: "This air is filled with the smell of freedom, I like it."
Li Xiao said with a smile: "Then let's go to Erhai Lake first and feel the beauty of Dali."
They rented a car and drove along the shore of Erhai Lake. The water of Erhai Lake was sparkling, shining like countless fine diamonds under the sunlight. Zhang Yue sat in the passenger seat and stuck his head out of the window excitedly: "
This Erhai Lake is so beautiful, like a huge mirror."
Li Xiao drove the car intently and responded: "Yes, the scenery around Erhai Lake is also very charming, and the Cangshan Mountains are accompanied by it. It is a perfect match."
Lin Fei kept taking pictures in the back row, muttering: "This scenery, if you take any photo, it will be a blockbuster."
The car reached a sea of flowers, where colorful flowers were blooming. Zhang Yue couldn't wait to jump out of the car, rushed into the sea of flowers, and spun around: "Come quickly, it's like a fairy tale world here."
Li Xiao and Lin Fei also got off the car and walked into the sea of flowers. Zhang Yue picked off a small flower, gently pinned it in her hair, and asked Li Xiao with a smile: "Does it look good?"
Li Xiao looked at her with gentle eyes: "You are beautiful, you are as beautiful as this sea of flowers."
Lin Fei was making vomiting gestures at the side: "Can you two stop being so disgusting? I'm getting goosebumps."
After leaving the sea of flowers, they came to Xizhou Ancient Town. There are many ancient Bai buildings preserved in the ancient town, with green tiles and white walls, cornices and brackets. Zhang Yue curiously walked through the alleys, looking at the murals and exquisite wood carvings on the walls.
Said to Li Xiao: "These buildings are so unique, and the artistic creativity of the Bai people is really strong."
Li Xiao nodded in agreement: "These buildings are not only beautiful, but also contain the culture and history of the Bai people."
Lin Fei was attracted by a small shop selling crispy cakes. He bought a piece and took a bite: "Well, this cake is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It tastes good."
They walked into a Bai folk house and experienced the Bai's three-course tea. The first tea was "bitter tea". Zhang Yue took a sip and frowned: "Wow, it's so bitter."
Li Xiao explained with a smile: "This bitter tea means bitter first and then sweet, just like life."
After drinking the second "sweet tea", Zhang Yue's expression softened: "This sweet tea is delicious, sweet but not greasy."
Finally, there was the third course of "Aftertaste Tea". Lin Fei smacked his lips: "This tea has a faint aftertaste, which makes people have endless aftertaste."
After touring Xizhou Ancient Town, night fell and they arrived at Dali Ancient City. The ancient city was brightly lit and people were coming and going. The streets were lined with various specialty products, including ethnic costumes, handicrafts, special snacks, etc. Zhang
Yue stopped in front of a silver jewelry store and picked up a pair of exquisite silver earrings to try on: "These earrings are so beautiful, very ethnic style."
Li Xiao was on the side to give her advice: "It suits you very well. It looks very elegant when worn."
Lin Fei became interested in those grilled milk fans, bought one and handed it to Zhang Yue: "Try this, it is said to be a special delicacy of Dali."
Zhang Yue took a bite and said, "Well, this milk fan has a strong milk aroma and a very special taste."
They found a folk bar in the ancient city and sat down, listening to the singers playing and singing songs about Dali. Zhang Yue hummed along softly, with a happy smile on his face: "At night in Dali, listening to such songs,
I feel so relaxed.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Xiao looked at her and gently swayed her body according to the rhythm: "Yes, Dali has such magic power that can make people forget their worries."
Lin Fei took a sip of the beer in his hand: "This is life, if only it could always be like this."
The next day, they decided to go hiking on Cangshan Mountain. As they walked along the mountain road, the scenery of Cangshan Mountain gradually unfolded before their eyes. The trees on the mountain were lush and green, and the mountains were shrouded in clouds and mist. Although Zhang Yue was a little breathless after walking, he was still in high spirits: "This Cangshan Mountain
The scenery is really ever-changing, and there is a different scenery every step you take.”
Li Xiao held her hand and encouraged: "Come on, the scenery on the top of the mountain will definitely be more beautiful."
Lin Fei shouted from the front: "Hurry up, you two, don't fall behind."
After a lot of hard work, they finally reached the top of the mountain. Standing on the top of the mountain, overlooking Dali, the Erhai Lake was like a crescent moon embedded in the earth, and the ancient city of Dali and the surrounding villages were all in sight. Zhang Yue shouted excitedly: "Dali, I love you
you!"
Li Xiao and Lin Fei were also infected by her emotions and shouted together. On the top of Cangshan Mountain, their voices echoed in the valley, as if they were telling Dali their love and reluctance.
As the journey in Dali ended, they had to pack their bags and rush to the next city full of unknowns. At the station, Zhang Yue had a hint of melancholy in his eyes: "Dali is like a beautiful dream, I really don't want to wake up."
"
Li Xiao comforted: "Although the dream will end, the beautiful memories will remain in my heart forever."
Lin Fei said with great expectation: "I wonder what kind of adventures will be waiting for us at the next stop?" Continue to Chapter 5: Xi'an Exploration
Leaving the romance of Dali, Li Xiao and the others took a plane to the historic Xi'an.
As soon as I arrived in Xi'an, the ancient and heavy atmosphere hit my face. Zhang Yue said excitedly: "Xi'an, this is the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties. There must be traces of history everywhere."
Lin Fei couldn't hide his excitement: "Yes, I can't wait to see those famous monuments."
Li Xiao responded with a smile: "Then let's go to Qin Shihuang's Terracotta Warriors and Horses as our first stop."
When they came to Qin Shihuang's Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum, they were all deeply shocked when they looked at the grand terracotta warriors and horses. Zhang Yue's eyes widened and he exclaimed: "This is so spectacular! These terracotta warriors and horses are so lifelike, as if they have traveled through thousands of years.
Time still sticks to its post."
Li Xiao stared at the terracotta warriors and horses and said: "Yes, they are a miracle of the world. Each terracotta warriors and horses contain extremely high artistic value and historical information, and bear witness to the glory and power of the Qin Dynasty."
Lin Fei curiously approached the glass display case and carefully observed the details of the terracotta warriors and horses: "Look, the expressions and demeanor of these terracotta warriors and horses are all different. The skills of the ancients are really ingenious."
After coming out of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum, their stomachs began to growl. So they walked into a mutton steamed bun shop. The store was filled with a strong aroma of mutton. Looking at the large bowl of steamed buns, Zhang Yue was a little overwhelmed:
"How do you eat this?"
Li Xiao smiled and demonstrated: "First break the buns into small pieces, and then give them to the master to cook."
While waiting for the steamed buns to be served, Lin Fei said: "The food culture in Xi'an is as long-standing as its history and culture. I can imagine people in ancient times sitting in a shop like this and enjoying the food."
After the steamed buns were served, Zhang Yue took a bite and gave a thumbs up: "Wow, this mutton is tender and tender, the steamed buns are full of soup, and the taste is rich and mellow, so delicious!"
After eating, they went to the ancient city wall. The three of them rented bicycles and rode on the city wall. Zhang Yue cheered while riding: "It feels great to ride on the ancient city wall! You can overlook the entire Xi'an city and feel its beauty."
Ancient and modern intertwined.”
Li Xiao said next to him: "This ancient city wall is like a guardian of history, silently witnessing the changes in Xi'an."
Lin Fei rode faster and shouted: "Come and chase me!"
In the evening, they came to Huimin Street. Huimin Street was very lively, and the aromas of various delicacies were intertwined. Zhang Yue was like a greedy little cat, shuttling in front of various food stalls. "This sesame sauce cold skin looks tempting, I want to eat it."
Serve!" "And this red willow barbecue, it must be delicious too!"
Li Xiao followed behind, smiling helplessly: "Slow down, don't overeat."
Lin Fei stopped in front of a stall selling persimmon cakes and bought a few to share with everyone: "This persimmon cake is soft, glutinous and sweet, with a unique flavor."
After shopping in Huimin Street, they went to watch a large-scale real-life historical dance drama "Song of Everlasting Sorrow". On the stage, the actors performed the love story of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Concubine Yang with beautiful dance postures and wonderful performances. Zhang Yue was fascinated by the show.
, eyes flashing with tears: "This dance drama is so beautiful, their love story is so poignant."
Li Xiao was also deeply moved: "This is not only a dance drama, but also a vivid presentation of history and culture."
Lin Fei sighed: "Xi'an's cultural heritage is so profound that any story can be interpreted so wonderfully."
The next day, they went to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Standing under the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Zhang Yue looked up at this ancient pagoda and said: "This Big Wild Goose Pagoda is a landmark building in Xi'an. It has gone through wind and rain, but it still stands."
Li Xiao introduced: "It was built to preserve the Buddhist scriptures and statues that Master Xuanzang brought back to Chang'an from Tianzhu via the Silk Road. It has extremely high religious and cultural significance."
Lin Fei walked around the Big Wild Goose Pagoda: "The structure of this building is very exquisite. The wisdom of the ancients is admirable."
Near the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Scenic Area, they also visited the Shaanxi History Museum. The collections in the museum are rich and diverse, ranging from stone tools from ancient times to bronzes from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, from tiles from the Qin and Han Dynasties to calligraphy and paintings from the Tang and Song Dynasties. Zhang Yue was dazzled: "
This place is simply a treasure house of history, and every cultural relic seems to tell a story of the past."
Li Xiao looked at the cultural relics carefully and said: "These cultural relics are an important window for us to understand history. Through them, we can travel through time and space and experience the lives and thoughts of the ancients."
Lin Fei kept taking pictures as souvenirs: "There are so many treasures, I want to take pictures of them all and study them carefully when I go back."
As their trip in Xi'an came to an end, they were filled with reluctance to leave this ancient city. At the station, Zhang Yue said softly: "Xi'an is like a heavy history book. I have just read a few pages. I really don't want to leave."
leave."
Li Xiao comforted: "We took away the beautiful memories, and we can come back to explore in depth if we have the opportunity in the future."
Lin Fei said with great expectation: "What kind of surprises will the next city bring us?" Continue to Chapter Six: Journey to Xiamen
After bidding farewell to Xi'an, which is rich in history, Li Xiao and the other three took a flight and headed to the coastal city of Xiamen.
The moment the plane landed and stepped out of the airport, the warm sea breeze caressed his face, carrying a faint smell of sea and fresh water vapor. Zhang Yue opened his arms excitedly and cheered: "Wow, Xiamen, we are here! This air
It smells like the sea."
Lin Fei took a deep breath, his face full of contentment: "Finally we have reached a place with the sea. I want to go to the beach to have fun."
Li Xiao smiled and suggested: "Then let's go to Gulangyu Island first, which is a business card of Xiamen."
