April 30 at 21:57 am, bound for the direction of the 2589 meeting of Jinzhou car time starting from the Beijing Railway Station. Thought can be blown to the wind the next morning after working continuously for nine days of fatigue seems to have lost a lot. 2589/90 is the Jinzhou Railway Bureau, the car, on-line post saying that this truck slow ticket expensive, but relatively clean. Telling the truth, Qu Letang toilet before going to bed a friend came back and said, rarely clean.
5:30 pm in the dawn of the morning out of Xingcheng station head-Yuan Chonghuan majestic statue greeted us. Immediately a taxi to compete for outbound tourists, we bought a Chang Xingcheng, maps, and then talk about a good price and a Jetta, the car to the beach. Xingcheng on the map of the city's main traffic routes across the city's two roads, one called the Coastal Road, one on the Marina South, we have taken the South. Driver enthusiastically recommended to us a place to live, and indicated that they could have been contained to the hotel to take a look. We would like to go for the statement together in the afternoon to reconsider the question of housing, it stopped this topic. Car was later found that this is a necessary fight answer, it is estimated the local hotel to the taxi commission extraordinary good, every time the driver will always recommend hotel to us.
Car to the Chrysanthemum female sculptures, saw the sea. Time less than 6:00, beach, Sheung Shui, quietly lined pulley, sea waves Linlin vague shapes born of the sun, calm and warm. The beginning of the shore weeping willow green, street clean and tidy, with feeling: good comfortable one bay, could not resist picking up a camera took a few pictures. Since the scheme is a good morning to the Chrysanthemum Island, we are not far along the road towards the pier.
A ship is docked at the pier, while the ticket windows still tightly shut, read: fare 40 yuan, 7:00 sail. Since can not buy a ticket, can not wait for the window on to the pier under construction next to the local walk. Obviously, this is the extension terminal to cater for more tourists. Basket Satchel of the local women there are still many, hey, they are heading for the ship's direction, can not buy a ticket can also be on board? We followed came alongside the boat, and sure enough, standing there, only buried in shipping management staff to help you on board, do not accept tickets. Q's, reads: Today the island has important activities, boat free of charge. We are happy on the floor of the boat, find out really nice Labor Day. This is a known Goyang on the 1st of the ship, up and down a total of three, would be able to placement supports 500. People seem to sit inside the cabin are local residents, mostly middle-aged, have brought home with a mouth. Some people still holding the hands of a number of dazzling red list in the view, we borrowed one: major events in fact refer to the island's largest new site Yonggungsa Temple foundation, for the local people believe in Buddhism, in terms of, and this is important than the Labor Day event. We can not help but silently uttered, "Amitabha," the light of His Honor James. Next to an aunt also said that boat is not only free, tickets are free on the island today, but also free of charge to do cars on the island tour. How a cool Zile De!
Eat a built-in breakfast, around 7:10 and started the boat. Bow stern deck jammed with people, everyone on board in the steady march of the face could not conceal the excitement, so I felt a bit like riding on the Titanic. Annotated on the map: Chrysanthemum Island, 9 km offshore area of 13.5 square kilometers, is the largest island in the Bohai Bay. Liao and Jin is the Buddhist holy places from the era, monuments many landing mountains along the road to tour Yonggungsa Temple, tang holes, wells and other famous octagonal glass.
40 minutes after the boat landed. May come under the boat, near the pier fishermen were fishing in the sea to get up early to pack utensils, in addition to other major networks, many of cylindrical piles of small cages, one question only know that it is a special tool to catch crabs. Follow the crowd has been moving forward, on the island minibus. Cars along the roads around the island to open to the area, the bodhi tree at the entrance next to a halt. Several spots on the island are mostly Buddhist disciples incense Wishing place, young people do not share of sincerity, all could not wait to rush towards the sea. Water really clean, hit the rocks at the shore from a small white spray. The hills behind the bushes just tell the green, looks like a girl does not like dressing Zhizhuo. We have a covered Lvtai the formation of reefs to sit down and feel the genial sun and sea breeze Xuxu Di. Also some cold water cool, with a swimsuit and I did not dare to water a try. But added that few children roll up their trousers, in the shallow rock crevices grasp find small crabs. One of the local women selling souvenirs and disappeared when pointed at a distance is a black dots: Look, it is the sea pig, and must have Baiba Shi jin it!
Close to 11 o'clock, sat Return vehicle back gathering place for restaurant near the pier. Looked for a shop looks clean, the door slipped a row of children big tub open them the kinds of seafood: fish, shrimp, clams, Han Zi, there is no single crab. Heard of the island's flower chrysanthemum shell crab taste uncommon, this time just to eat another crab season, this meal can not afford Without it. Young handsome boss said to go to the pier on the crab to buy, store, to processing, and a pound a money processing fees. So we went to Pier 20 buy a pound of 22 crabs Eurya back. Also in the shop asked for a with a big white clams, lentils, and half a catty climbing a Fried shrimp dumplings (Liaoning accent read zhi, softly), put the crab boss to avoid the processing fees. To help us pick the crabs that the locals seem pretty good, holding all of which are mission umbilical crab, opened a shell full of rich roe. We have buried ourselves hard to eat, a time table had crab mess. This is Gordon seafood meal Commission spent a total of less than 60 yuan, the United States walked out of eating the perfect shop. After dinner later remembered forgetting to wash hands with two hands full of crab flavor riding on a return of the ship.
The island also has something called a small seafood sea melon seeds. Had just landed on the island is full of adults and children selling sea melon seeds voice. Selling of children each holding a small basin, bowls of water, a deep color of the small finger as big as a small conch. This is called the sea melon seeds are wondering how to eat something, you see the next one is selling women in bowls of water, picked up a bundle of Yaner bottle Gail to the tip of a melon seeds into the sea where a break with both hands Yan Er, smb lost, and she took up and put a suction mouth, "Zi" is heard, that the "Gua Ziren," went into her mouth. Wow we eat at the same time of her decision: absolutely not eat it to buy seeds of the sea.
Xingcheng to the Chrysanthemum Island round-trip tickets are sold, as long as you are daisy on the island, on the return of the ship is casual ride. Back to Xingcheng coast found that no one gets up in the sea is now calm excitement up, visitors walked colorful playing in the sea water pulley. Double and triple bicycle rental business, nice, the coast road is full of excitement, yelling Ji Zhaoju girl. We chose a hotel called the Sea Palace to settle down, in order to be able to watch the sunrise the next day lying in bed, it is the luxury suites to their waterfront. Here for understanding between the standard so that those of us accustomed to 24-hour hot water that some people are not used at night is that they know the bath water stored in the roof of the hot spring water, Dao Shi Ting hot water is a small block of stone resting in the following Probably be able to chisel point drips slowly traces out of a bath is a fee of something fresh. Self-comfort can not be too picky, and there are separate toilet room here is very luxurious, and we do not accept, then you had to go to town to live, that's how it can see the sunrise at sea?
To lay down their bags, Xile Lian, already too late to cast some sunscreen, after tanning, each holding a lollipop came to the beach. Play a half-hour of water pulley, and then sat on the beach picking up shells, play sand, a daze, until the tide rose to feet. Dark sky down to eat dinner time is up.
Which restaurants are unacceptable and are looking around to see when he heard the sound of percussion music. Mother looked, see one chatting up a small stage in front of the hotel, a long-haired, plump brawny stature is using a very Hong Kong-flavored voice greeting to the crowd "Ladies and gentlemen, Good evening", hotel dropped to the red banner with the words "Jiuzhou Paradise theatrical show," the words, the stage next to a clear sign: "Three Musketeers band", obviously referring to the accompaniment of that three gentlemen of the. Meals can also look at performance, that is it. This meal we have a point of a north-east Luandun, a Beijing Sauce wire, a homemade Geda Tang, actually spent 60 yuan. A Beijing Sauce wire on the 25 yuan, in Beijing, enough to buy both the. Cried his mouth really expensive, psychological kinda America: to enjoy the three male and female singers sang eight songs, the value of. Incidentally, the Jiuzhou park can stay, we asked this: standard room 100 yuan a bed, but no independent bathroom.
Dinner, go back to a simple wash, always thinking about tomorrow, to watch the sunrise early awakening, sleep down the 9:00 bell.
5 o'clock wake up, and opened a curtain out of view, sea, and days are gray. Yesterday, as large sunny days, cloudy day today it? Sunrise appears to see, and simply Mengtoudashui. Lai has always been to the 7:30, getting up one to see: rain. The morning to the ancient city, just the rain nostalgia. Eating breakfast first night back to Beijing Railway Station to buy tickets and was told that sleeping has been sold out, first bought a two-free-seat ticket on the train then.
The ancient city from the train station very close to a bus three stations are on the up. Xingcheng ancient city built in the Ming dynasty, has been 574 years ago, the entire city was square, surrounded by the city has four gates, gate tower on four corners, each with battery. Perimeter wall 3274 meters, Bottom width 6.5 meters Dingkuan 5 meters, 10 meters high. Across the street was the city cross the intersection, the intersection is the Drum Tower. Buy a ticket to board the walls, the more rain the more dense the next. The wall is very wide, looked around at the top, thick in Western Liaoning plain lined residential areas, in the rain so quiet and occasionally someone's backyard in a gorgeous lilac trees to open up, which gave a hint of black on the roof of bright colors interspersed . West stood on the wall, looking at the courtyard below one of the ivy bloom Zhengwang, suddenly found that the door was squatting with a big house dogs are staring at us with eyes to see. I have never seen such a big dog: back in black, abdomen black and yellow and white, stood up and came one meters high. That dog's eyes gentle, friendly, let me think about the wisdom of the old man. Go east wall also seen when a dog, but it saw the wall, some people catch up with barking up under the foot of the wall, I really did not cultured. The ancient city is famous in the history of warfare, and Yuan Chonghuan Qing generals to fight on here, playing the victory called the "Ning victory." Street 2 Zushi Shihfang but for two brothers to follow the Yuan generals Jiangong Zu Dashou the great amusement of their ancestors built. In the wall looking down from above also found a "week Jia Dazhai" is a very big Zhaizi Chou Cheng-chih, county, heritage conservation, down to visit after the unsuccessful: It may be masters of fear be interrupted, the street closed all doors and windows locked.
At noon in the street one is called "Daoxiang snacks" in the store to eat the Kaifeng clyster package, taste really good. The other asked for a two stir-fries, spent a total of 20. We are both anxious to fights for the bill. Leisurely meal went to see the hidden alleys of the Confucian Temple, reading out a watch until 3:30. Rain is still, the point not seen a small car is 10 o'clock at night, and how to kill the remaining time: go to Hot Springs? Go to the first mountain? Then see the side of the road cake shops, two lift knee to look inside to go: eat a tea talk. This shop is not only tables and chairs looks clean, and my very good friend of Petty actually wanted to go to the non-sweetened coffee. Each destroyed a piece of cake, we asked people how to get to the store the first hill. The enthusiasm of local people once again moves us, not only said how to get, also the approximate price of a taxi is also fully advertised and decided to brave the rain to go in the first mountain.
Rain slippery hill, the driver promised to take us to the foot of the mountain, but he let us in less than a small gate crossing out of the car, but also told that can only come from a muddy path to climb. The first foot of the mountain is a spring, we were blinded beauty, there is no more like to walk up the hill. The more walking at the foot of the more heavy, and shoes covered with thick mud, looked up in front of an arch on the left screamed "First Mountain," the word arch under a rain washed with the asphalt road. So Taihushangdang: harm we have made a profit of mud feet. Yamashita large tracts of orchards with different levels of the mountains rich in vegetation, shrubs, tree layer upon layer upon layer, the air was incredibly fresh. Because of the rain from the clouds and misty hillside at since, down see the true face of the Peak. Hill Road, only two of us, Jingde scary, so climb up the first pavilion and photographs, we will for home. Spring Hill at the foot of the mountains do not lose, draw us to walk 20 minutes to go a big way.
Xingcheng left before the dinner we decided to maximize the corrupt one: the most high-end local Shuidiaogetou eat. Friend suggested to try new means of transport, so we take 3 per person to spend a money power to the Shuidiaogetou. This location on the map in terms precisely the Tang Quan Temple, where it could go look for what monuments. Hot Springs Village villa vacation residence is said to have Chang Tso-lin, to explore the past, just to see the ins and outs on the Tang Quan Temple, enthusiastic local residents told that the villa had been built when the temple had been removed. We follow the pointing of his time to find Tang Quan Temple and found that this unique building has become a salvage station.
Sitting in the lobby Shuidiaogetou immediately give birth to a very familiar feeling in the hotel: a brilliant chandelier, all kinds of beautiful plants, Ruoyouruowu music. Miss am proud to tell us: Xingcheng no more advanced than the place here. We point out in Wan Chai deep-fried squid, Fengdu Acacia feathers, boiled nest melon flower, buckwheat cake sauerkraut dumplings and gold, but also a bottle of local beer, a big chrysanthemum. Because he agreed to give us a half copies, this sumptuous dinner but we were not spending too much silver.
Time is too early to go out this want to ride the bus to the train station, a question and found out after 6:00 pm there will be no buses, and had a taxi. 21:56 on the opening back to Beijing's 2590 times, was fortunate enough to make up to a sleeper ticket, sleep to Beijing, this trip marked by a perfect end.
Summary: Xingcheng the northern part of the first green Mountain National Forest Park, the east sea, the ancient city of the west. Spring and Autumn see the mountains, summer swimming, is worth visiting the city. During the more than 51 visitors, we see a calm and warm in late spring scenery. Local development is still at an early stage, the city customs are pure and honest, and you will feel more close to nature. From Beijing in the past, if the cost is not high, we have two people to eat very luxurious accommodation, and spent a total of only 1,200 yuan.
