I waited six-member delegation in June 2001 16-17 to Chengde travel.
June 16 as early as 7:20 in Beijing Station on K709, arrive at 11:18 Chengde railway station, along the way are soliciting's constant lobbying, several of us less experienced people to participate in the railway organization's mission, each 30 yuan, including fare and tour guides (later known summer resort guide only). We immediately got off the train was pulled inside the yurts Mountain Resort Village, after some bargaining, each of 80 live in B packages, the equivalent of air-conditioned, television and independent bathroom cottage standard room, only the supply of hot water at a fixed time , rather than the train in terms of a 24-hour hot water. May be wet and long uninhabited because inside, there are shares of enzymes flavor, need to open the package at the top of the window ventilation. Slightly appropriate rest, finishing, we go behind the restaurant, the price of food is slightly expensive, but the amount of great taste in general, I remember very good to eat string pheasants, about 50 yuan one.
13:00, we began a summer resort of travel, tour guides took us cursory looked circle, it has also been buying a bit of Chengde specialty Montenegro jade pillow, a comb-like products, did not taste too much time on One mood. Villa inside the building there was a clear royal style, there are imitating southern gardens where the venue easy to King, if the time in this long-lived, in the early summer morning, in the small Road within walking distance, free to go to; or in the evening When boating on the lake, watching the sunset slowly falling; or in the light rain started falling, the board Yanyu Lou, watching the rain on the little ripples in the lake, I do not know whether there would be inexplicable moving. But time is too short, I am even unable to breakdown within the beauty of Villa, it at the urging of tour guides in at 4 points out the main entrance of the Villa of Korea.
Originally planned to go straight to visit other places, but our car is yet to come, enough to wait 50 minutes, as we prepare to fight car go, our van finally emerged. Driver would like to take us to the City God Temple, was that we refused, then went to Chengde, a must-called the Shuang Tashan. Chengde road passing through a prison, watching high the original walls, can not help but wonder why the prison away from the urban area so close. Line for half an hour, arriving Shuang Tashan, this mountain is Danxia landforms, two peaks stand like a wall, seen from afar as the two clubs, the mountains have a Liao Dynasty pagoda built, of which one has completely collapsed, and the other also erect a . In the 98 years to build a ladder, when archaeologists can be mounted close view of tower style, but the effect on the overall landscape, seen from afar like more of a hill. From a distance, Shuang Tashan like homemade, but look at it was found near the sand is extremely strong composition, actually looks somewhat like concrete. Gap between the stays of many Xiaogun, saying "stick backing," can be bought bless waist stays straight after a good body health, family health. Climbed the ladder to see tower, is made by piling up bricks, crumbling appearance, which enshrined an old man, is said to Wang Tai Sin, concrete deeds unknown. As for who is built and how to build, and on no to cicadas, known as the "eternal mystery." There are many pigeons in the tower and settled down, free to live, really envy them, and we are so demanding to see the scenery, they can easily close. In the tower can be seen near the Cliff stone, we can see Luan River, such as the jade belt in general.
Left Shuang Tashan, the sky dimming, the driver suggested that we should not eat, directly to Kuixinglou Building, this time being there are some Taoist activities. So nonstop Road in Kuixinglou Building to spend 10 yuan requested a tour guide, explaining the way to the top of the building, buildings have an old Taoist priest, reportedly telling a very accurate, at least 100 yuan for each charge, went to many astrologers. Kuixinglou Building built on mountains, is a Taoist temple dedicated to Kuixing is a pilgrimage place for students, from 97 onwards, in a prepared stone will be carved on the entrance examination every year liberal arts champion's name, it is the family line feeling. At night, Kuixinglou Building 10000 par, building shine, very eye-catching. Here is also a night to enjoy the best place in Chengde city, looking at the foot of the little lights, listening to tour guides talk about the story, as if back in ancient times. Unfortunately, thick cloud cover at night, have not seen the little bit of the stars.
Down the Kuixinglou Building was already 9:00, and Zuo Juhui hotel, bath, after dinner, but many restaurants are no longer operating, so that taxi driver to find a moment to "Dongpo Fanzhuang." This dish is very good,东坡肉I think it is best to eat, even more than Hangzhou "Louwai Lou" and is also delicious venison is more general, some bite still. We eat bread to eat a meal, spend about 160 yuan. A taxi back to hotel to rest the end of the first day of the journey.
The first two days early in the morning, because yurts glass top, resulting in very bright inside, so it is early awake until 5:00, wake-up companion to go hiking to see the walls. Along the mountain in a thick morning mist in the straight, morning exercises along the way there are many elderly people, walking briskly, I walk up the hill panting, I really regret not enhance physical exercise. What impressed me most is the mountain mulberry, red sweet and sour taste buds purple sweet exception, I have never eaten such a delicious mulberry, walking, eating, extremely cool. Snow can be seen along the way, Nanshan, Seifu Green Lantau and North-occipital peaks such as attractions, arrived after the ancient Ju-ting, that is on the walls of Villa to go back. Walls of about 2-3 meters wide, seen from afar as the Great Wall, close look at is not. Villa in the walls within the terms of scenery, Man Shan green, some went so far as the southern mountains, and think that the emperor truly is likely to select areas of the palace will be doing here. Villa outside the Eight Outer Temples in the mist in the increasingly mysterious. Downhill is a good go, unconsciously, had come to the foot, and gradually dispersed the fog. Visited our neighborhood's Eisuke Temple Luhe tower, has no room lake tour, and had to go home. Unfortunately, plants do not see the deer in the deer, but the way back saw a small deer, with large flashing eyes, very beautiful.
After breakfast, go to Puning Temple. Temple incense very wang, many people, Mahayana's Genei, for the world's largest wooden Buddha, Bodhisattva Guanyin Qianshouqianyan, therefore, also known as the big temple. The latter part of the temple there are some Tibetan style.
Later, went to Putuo Zongcheng Temple, is the Outer Eight Temples the largest of a lamin sum, also known as small Potala Palace. Relieved against the blue sky and clouds, red Taiwan appeared extremely magnificent. Into the house and found by the three components, one of the group of four three-floor, flat as a "back" type, two are located in the Center Hall 10000 France owned by a third, the top four in Group F, Pavilion Hall. There are countless deserving to be filmed during the scenery, but more people need to seize the moment and angle.
Potala Palace out of childhood, our journey will be over. The well-known hotels in the United States wanted to Chengde meal, but was taken to a relationship between the driver households restaurant, told us to wait for him to help buy the train tickets,既来之,则安之, we also had to feast on this, buckwheat noodles dumplings delicious, really wanted to bring some white buckwheat noodles back to Beijing, but afraid that they are doing well, had to give up the idea. Chengde bought some large flat almonds and almond milk and the like to take home.
In the end, did not give us tickets, but to bring our vehicle replacement ticket. Because the replacement ticket than the empty car, you can account for a good place to sleep, is also considered to be very good, and 16:40 pm, we arrived in Beijing.
In short, this line of play, and eat are relatively cool, but did not properly appreciate the Summer Resort, and only leave to a later opportunity. In addition, as summarized below NOTES:
1, if the time is not sufficient, there is no need to have wandered each of attractions and temples, rather than cursory better place to find unique feel for
2, not with the travel agencies, Chengde, a small place where a small public or a taxi ride is very convenient, but taxi 2 km starting from 5 yuan, inexpensive and free
3, it is best to live in the Mountain Resort, the quiet and comfortable, or to enjoy convenient, Villa There are many hotels and guest houses, off-season (7 months ago) Standard prices can look like McCain to 130-160 yuan
4, Summer Resort could be invited to a tour guide, as the local large, attractions and more in some places may not be able to understand where to play their own beauty, if the person intends to buy the book to see in advance to prepare is not bad. Other places do not need, and everywhere you can rub a guide to listen to explanations, and its contents are almost
