Is the car bumps along in a Quebec town, a place called the three settle down. Find what you want, there are three covered bridges in town, first of all go to the Liu family residence to the bridge. To the passing of the villagers asking him about "near the bridge ah" Everybody says that do not know. Finally, Liu HongNing crystal crafts factory of an old man pointing, and from the entrance to the village to enter an alley, walked the ridge curved Spin through the residential areas of Gary, Liu house bridge into our eyes. This is our twenties and thirties of these young people for the first time to see covered bridges, the bridge is very simple, wooden structure, quietly crossing over a stream on top of lush trees, the two sides, the bridge to cover up faster. Our hearts still stir. Bridge, built homes and two two-story house style rooms, the main bridge carved roof with two Zuta Caiyun the dragon, which inserted a wishful ball, side looked was Erlongxizhu-like, vivid. Although there is no modern bridge, the bridge magnificent momentum, but very practical and explicit sophisticated chic, the light touched the bridge, on a wooden pillars of the Ming Dynasty roots enough that we regret and some emotion.
Farewell Liu house bridge, sunset, when we came to not far from the residence of the Xue house bridge. This bridge is very interesting, long, cross-beam gradient large (enough to have 30 degrees) were struggling to climb away and rushed to the Yiliu Yan Wang Dan's light on, and just plain Nazuo Liu residence Bridge is the two different styles. Bridge has a century-camphor, under the bridge is also a kick up with the stream flow. See that we took pictures in contrast to 11 curious villagers wanted to come, did not expect them to come some day and night, even the names of all call did not come out of the bridge will be shot out of such a beautiful, but also out of the book, the more people are increasing in the last more than a month looking Youziyouwei, but also difficult to understand Wenzhou native dialect used to explore up.
Cursory to read the two bridges, perhaps because the road hard, one by one into a contented sleep.
The next day morning, a month was again a big rooster wake-up downstairs. Town started the morning excited. The air was filled with the smell of every household stove. We also mood flush on the floor of the CMB Yongqing Bridge rush to the north side of town. An hour's drive and enthusiasm of the Pakistani driver to drive straight to the bridge stopped, and pointing back to our direction. Bridge Bridge monument stood to introduce the history of the bridge and engraved with the donor list. A blink of an eye, netizens scattered in all directions to the bridge, and admired from all angles, filming with, stroked this ancient and beautiful covered bridges. Bridge streams murmur, distant hazy mountains and watched it, as if perception of the centuries it has been like waiting for me here. "Come see ah!" Netizens do not know when the bridge on the second floor of an old house, and we have always seen the ancient villages of the old house, like the house should also have a hundred years, and although some looked worn, but is very clean and tidy, you can smell the faint fragrance of camphor. Indeed, through the roof, here is the best angle to enjoy the scenery. Mountains, fields, streams, bridges, and sweeping views. House whose owner was an old lady, in turning the entire wall of a bunch of roses in the bud. See us and greeted her, she stopped in the hands of the living, smiled and said "Come drink water it." Side let us into the back room, the action quick and neat way to brew a tea. This gives us both surprised and flattered. Through the kitchen window lattice, we can see the courtyard planted with flowers, horses sings lotus, canna, Chunlan and so many hearts bloom cheerfully, inviting people love and affection look like. As if there are exceptional air quality and soil, what plants and seeds easily fall here, can be very long. Conceivable that mothers are some artistic accomplishments of people. "Grandma how old you are now?" "78." "Wow!" Netizens endless emotion, feeling that if the envy of their own homes grandmother grandmother if there is such a physique that how good tough. "My eldest son is 56啦, there are 20 teenage grandchildren about her." "How come you are a person who the people?" We asked. "They are out of business, and rarely come back." "Hello, lady luck ah." "Hey, that is, his wife to go early, left me a man." See out of my mother's eyes have some sadness. Wenzhou people have this kind of custom, small home business to go out to the old home old-age pension. Wenzhou in the eyes of most people is that the rich were the first to prosper. It does not know how much they paid hard work, and how many moving stories behind it. Taking advantage of all of us and her mother-chat, I am a man came to the door. Mother at the door lay down on the rest, a bamboo chair, Gordon see eyeful empty deceive the mountains and water, I found my thoughts blank. Unable to get past some of the thoughts and worries vanished, where nothing really. Perhaps this kind of life's living. City life for a long time will make people become numb, how can those of us educated people will Xiangshan village an old woman to a stranger of the passers-by to move stool Daobei Shui Zhang do? Think of the city you grab a seat on the bus let me ashamed endless shots.
More than half an hour later and the mother reluctant to part unless we want to come up with ten-dollar money to her mother for tea money, the money themselves felt in the present circumstances, how pale and weak. It was natural to give her mother refused. She sent us a long way, as if we are to go home she was a rare to see her child again brought a long journey. I think I will come back here to see the bridge, and his mother, I will bring a packet of Ginkgo biloba seeds, let it grow into a tree, always accompanied her.
Look at the bridge looking at one there is more than a taste, we decided to go further afield to see chartered. China and Pakistan to find the cars, the owner of a pair of middle-aged couple, asking price also went to 250 to 230. Line is the Ya-yang radon spring - sixi Town - Shinomura - go back to Hot Springs accommodation. Estimate is the owner of a big business, and to see if he is busy buying bottles of water and 5 fried puffed up with pride to the road. Car to radon spring, but because the 51 and found several of the hotels have is overcrowding. So we decided to live sixi town, to see if there can be counted is the world's most beautiful covered bridges.
From the sixi to Shinomura is not a good way to go, the driver also do not know, from time to time to get off the street. After the time of each village, the village has many large cock heads held high standing middle of the road, the driver sounded his horn straight hurry, they only go away if nothing had happened. Car in the mountains circling the way the scenery Shashi well, each saw a quiet pools, or rapids of the Falls, "Oh!" Manner soon as we all cried with one voice, I have seen drivers smiled Han Han up, sometimes more slowly open the car, for fear we miss the scenery.
In Shinomura, asked several members of the villagers at last found a text Hing Bridge. As before, though the book presentations and pictures have been familiar with the study, but also a bridge too see the real stir when "too beautiful," blurted out the praise. Wen-Xing Bridge momentum in the past by looking at several bridges on either side of the rain colored red paint, mottled, but in the backdrop of mountains, were particularly noticeable. But a natural one and the surrounding landscapes. Bridge is a wooden arcade bridge, not a nail, a number of wood will be able to structure such a strong and perfect. Had to admire the ingenious idea of our predecessors on the bridge and the aesthetics of nature.
Car back to town, we sixi to the owners of 250 yuan of money. Not only because of the way of hard work, and actively look for the bridge to take us constantly worrying way. Like most people here, they are enthusiastic, kind, hospitable. They wholeheartedly to pay labor, if we pay less, have felt ashamed to face and heart of.
The sixi Village Creek to join three of the ancient north-south crossing, and we broke to find the world's most beautiful covered bridges - North Stream Bridge. Bridge was built with the Kangxi reign. Bridge House scores, the median protuberance two overlapping nets, four-wing Gao Qiao Zhuang was Mirs wings. The whole bridge green glazed tile brick, richly ornamented, painted Danzhu. Bridge stone steps at the Millennium Guzhang one more. The deepening twilight, under the shade of a tree to avoid day, fragrance Mi Yuan, set off a particularly solemn and elegant bridges. It can be said, having read such a bridge, a lifetime of nothing to regret.
I finally found the eyes of the covered bridges, they are much higher than I expected. Look for the bridge process is interesting, and there encountered the villagers, like the bridge has a honest, good-nature, I found that once the bridge is also located at the beautiful lost soul.
