A sudden whim to see CHENG Yang's Boasting and decided to let myself just a few days off. Hurriedly packed up and drove overnight to Guangxi.
Row switched cars three times, and finally saw the famous Nazuo Yongji bridge. The first to find accommodation, to lay down their luggage, wash away all the way to travel abroad. On the balcony, saw the green paddy fields, frame Boasting beautiful the river, as well as the river curved side of an ancient seat of the windmill, people relaxed and happy. Walks into the Dongzhai, left look right look, although it has developed into a scenic spot, visitors Quemo a few, I like a paradise of outsiders into and watch them leisurely, unhurried's doing their own things, it seems that life is not disturbed by the tourism industry. So much the better, I was able to see the real life of the Dong people.
CHENG Yang is actually a total of Dongzhai scenic eight stockade, some next to, a few are separated far away, I turned around only four or five. CHENG Yang Lin River meandering flow through the whole area, well above the cross was built several Boasting. Boasting a set of bridges, corridors, pavilions and three kinds of architectural styles in one, strong winds when it rains Dong China can also be on the bridge rain, hence the name Boasting. Dong China is usually through the Boasting between the two sides in the streams. Dong Jia's Diaojiaolou very simple, even some can be said that crude, are invariably the dark appearance, not luxury, but as part of their public buildings Boasting and Drum Tower are doing very fine, black deck with a few layer of silver cornices, a very bright eye-catching. In Zhaizhong can easily find Boasting as well as the Drum Tower. Perhaps because Boasting and the Drum Tower of the Dong people are Zhaizhong Juan Zijian the bar. Boasting on each block has a sign to write the names of all the bridges on the fund-raising, the number of informal, focusing on mind. It is worth mentioning that the entire Boasting no matter how long the bridge deck, all wood mortise lap up, did not use a nail, working is also very delicate. Can not help but sigh the Dong people's wisdom, as well as their unity. Drum Tower is the usual gathering of villagers and entertainment areas, although the built very high, there are three or four floors, can actually only on the ground floor, but also all wood, building a very refined.
Walking in Dongzhai, I found an eye well water everywhere, all with the concrete repair of the canopy cover was estimated to be afraid of rain pattering on the well water. Because the daily Dong-min of drinking water wells are here, you can see a lot of holding a vacuum bottle Dong China came to draw water. Wells clear bottomed out, picked up a wooden ladle scoop from Yipiao public water, pour in the hands of a taste, good sweet and cold well water, no wonder they drink out of a beautiful girl to the Dong Jia.
Walking around, I felt very honest here, and morals. As in many parts of stockade big walk and turned to walk away do not know how, whenever this time Dong China who enthusiastically tell you how to go. Even if you do not ask, just hovering around in the intersection, there will be democracy movement Dong tell you to go over there. Once I reached a lane foot forward is the paddy fields, there is no road feel, and want to go back, wooden legs hanging upstairs a mean old lady stuck his head forward, said one simple sentence Dong language, I guess is that you can move forward , I asked her in Mandarin can not move forward, and she nodded his head, appears to listen to not speak. So I continue to move forward stepping away. How far away do not run on the old lady down from the Diaojiaolou catch me, and said a few words interspersed blunt Dong Mandarin language, hear me very puzzled, not knowing the natural, you see that she said as he patted his right arm, carefully thought, guessed right away that I have been told not to turn left, asked her if she is not in Mandarin, and she nodded with a smile. I also laughed, he kept thanks. Communication originally simple! And the feeling is really very simple Dong China kind and helpful. This bustling city had already been hard to get hold of.
Local school after school, and a group of another group of children playing in the forest River swim, laughing and joking in a quiet village has been so angry. This scenario reminds me of my childhood, is the same carefree.
Back to the residence that evening sitting on the balcony of a small bamboo chair scenic point of view, all the most spectacular scenic Yongji bridge in front of the forest river meandering river hobble around I do not know what age a seat made of water tankers, water tankers do not care does not slowly turning, through a section of bamboo into the river toward the green paddy fields. All this really make people feel very relaxed, very pleasant. Unfortunately, the saying goes, do not see the night sky, the stars, I think there must have beautiful Star.
Dongzhai reply quiet night. On this day Zhouche exertion, and accompanied by gurgling sound of flowing water, creak sound of Ya Ya's water tankers as well as the nature of the frog turn called insects, into sweet sleep.
The next morning woke up at the sound of a bird, get out to the balcony for a breath of fresh air, hard-working and never tired to turn the waterwheel. And I have to leave here to go to see Dragon's Back terraced fields in Longsheng, which broke it. Always thinking that in the future must find time to be properly here, stay for a few days.
Dragon's Back terraced development of better, tourist facilities, better than CHENG Yang, visitors more than CHENG Yang, Zhuang people would say that Mandarin will be done, but it is why people feel has lost its original flavor. Ping Zhai Zhuang people feel there would be no CHENG Yang Dong people's honest. Boasting a stockade in front of there, but the family Boasting Zhuang noticeably more primitive.
Ping Zhai quickly from the starting to the seven stars the moon viewing platform (2 viewing platform), in the above looked down the hill, green terraced fields, it is spectacular. If it is even more beautiful in the spring, and had just planted, terraces on the sparkling, truly beautiful. Listen in to the side next to a tourist guide said that this hill was the moon, it is the stars next to some hills, form the landscape of the moon seven stars, but I think she meant to refer to still be hard to tell who is the moon, Who are the stars, He He. Next to a small stone along the path of the viewing platform, Kowloon, Fab Five (1, viewing platform), bypassing a mountain, you can see the whole picture Ping Village. In the high mountains was built according to mountains Zhuang Walled and built on the ground than on the Dongzhai, but also has attracted the kind of grace.
Fab Five in Kowloon scenery viewing platform seems a little less than seven stars the moon viewing platform is that beautiful people do not bother to even the scenic area to build, just put a brand casual, people can not help wondering whether this is to the destination. That time is too late as early Buzao Yue, hesitated a moment decided to go Dazhai Xiaozhai see, because it is said, where the scenery is beautiful, but have to go back and forth six hours. Walled regret the first set in peaceful place to live, otherwise we can go to Dazhai to go live, so I have plenty of time on some of the. Fortunately, the road landscape change is not large, I can concentrate hurry to get somewhere to go.
Thin stone along the road to the mountains, into the mountains have no visitors, and only encountered a few scattered firewood Sukita the Zhuang people through. Zhuang people in the mountains on the showing of the honest and passionate personality. Almost every walk beside me would say hello and asked if I want to go. I am also enthusiastic response of "Hello," and inquire about the still far away from Dazhai. Lane on both sides are terraced fields, perhaps because in the mountains of the reason, irrigation inconvenient, so our predecessors would come up with such cultivation ways in which landscapes naturally shed layers of the provincial irrigation of the trouble and fatigue.
Go for a long time finally see the shadow of the stockade, and excitement, in the foothills of the mountain streams where washed my face, cool, and good comfort. Look down from the height of the stockade, where a larger number of terraces, but also a mountain stream flowing through the foot, like a jade belt comic interludes in between the stockade and the terrace and feel more beautiful than the Ping Village, and indeed a worthwhile trip. However, not one will be happy, I learned from the mouth of the stockade Zhuang China is not the Dazhai, but at the viewing platform and Dazhai No. 1 between the sixth form. No wonder, I thought I really move very quickly and a half hours and left others finished a three-hour road Hehe. As a result, I have not had the momentum forward, but time is late, and think of the name of flashlights at night go back to that mountain is just a matter of terror cases, so go home. Come to see the road, when the Zhuang people, and they do not ask me how I Dazhai, and listening to too far I said, do not have time to go after, and that where the beautiful, but in fact is not too far away, saying that I am unfortunately and told me next time must go. I smiled to answer these kind Zhuang must go to the next fellow, but to go to Dazhai to live.
It seems faster than when you came back to, perhaps thinking downhill in the sun before the father back to see the sunset viewing platform on the 1st. Fortunately, finally one minute before the sun back to the viewing platform of the No. 1 and saw the sun and father one last time.
Ping Village is not a quiet night, apart from mountain spring water acoustic noise but also have a lot of visitors. However, because of the high terrain, you can see the beautiful Star. Long time did not see the stars twinkle in the night sky, and extremely happy! Took the bench in the shop before the store platform the stars, when suddenly a meteor across the excitement I forgot to make a wish, but stare at the beautiful Star hair silly, suddenly there is an indescribable impression. Seeing a fluttering fireflies, I have decided to take flashlight out to see fireflies. Firefly flying all the way, beautiful great. In a pool side, I saw a large group of fireflies gathered there. Some of V in the pool fixed, while others constantly flashing on the Yinghuo belly, feeling like stars in the sky falling in the pool. I looked up to see days, and then look at this side of the pool, actually a bit confused, I do not know what is the day, what is the tank. Folly out of the situation got out, I simply viewing platform along the road on the 2nd run uphill walk the stone path, reached the Village side, just where there are stone bench, it is estimated that gives the stars of the. I sat down and quietly watched the beautiful Star, unfortunately I can not tell those constellations, only identify the Galaxy. But enough, and I revel in the twinkling starlight, all of a sudden know that moving is a kind of moving people to tears.
Unfortunately, this holiday is limited, otherwise I would have covered the night sky for that the stars in the Dragon's Back to stay a few days. Frustration, the next day early in the morning I packed luggage, and reluctantly left the beautiful Walled Zhuang.
Excursus Gong Lue:
1. Transport:
CHENG Yang and Dragon's Back in northwest Guangxi, you can once Wanbian. I am from Guilin in Guangxi, starting, in Guilin, Sanjiang has direct access to the car (more than 4 hours), but the frequency of small, I have this relationship because of the time the first car to Longsheng (more than 2 hours) sub-bus to Sanjiang ( is also a more than two hours), so both sides of the cars are more compact and more time. Sanjiang to go to the section of the road (less than 10 minutes) to the Sanjiang the old bus station (you can also use tricycles to go), sit to the forest to the river and get off car CHENG Yang (half an hour).
CHENG Yang cut back in the car crossing the road in Sanjiang (about half an hour with a trip to a little patience, yo), went to the new station car ride to Longsheng. To sit in Longsheng Dragon's Back terraced fields that the coach, probably a half an hour on its way. This car door directly to the scenic spot. Come back is the door waiting for a train in the scenic, two-hour trip. Longsheng is a large station, in addition to three rivers and the Dragon's Back terraced fields, there are direct access to other attractions nearby Longsheng car. Finally sat down in Guilin, Longsheng bus-stop faster. This time we come back as tourists, but little more than a vehicle are planning to return to a direct transfer to the Guilin Longsheng, so the drivers to help us to contact another car, let us direct transfer at the halfway back to Guilin, no longer need to turned into Longsheng, saving a lot of time and trouble.
2. Diet:
As long as you do not find fault with these two places to eat all came easy, you can eat in the residence, along with the final checkout on the line, not expensive at all (both local consumption is not expensive). Of course, I think that here, it seems unlikely to find food for us especially for Cantonese.
3. Accommodation:
In CHENG Yang entered the hotel there are several scenic spots, the best is to select the river, and feels really good. Health conditions can also be, but some shops do not separate toilet. However, few people also do not care.
Dragon's Back stay even more convenient, and almost the entire Walled are hotel safe. While the sixth and Dazhai hamlet has a place to live, but many may not be safe. This is not an independent bathroom, but also, and stores shared.
4. Other:
Dongzhai Village can see Dong song and dance performances, reportedly quite good to read. Must be booked, but only to look at, the best performances were more flat fees, few people are not very cost-effective.
Dongzhai a total of eight, to be referred to the Department may take two days full time, if time is short and can endure only in the relatively tight near the stockade walk around. All roads lead to scenic spots in the road to Rome, it wants to lift knee to go, and then fail, they ask Dong fellow citizens, they are happy to help you. In the entrance there is a path up the mountain scenic area, there are two different locations in the Peak Pavilions, can see the whole CHENG Yang Dong Zhai. Of course, the highest point of the bare to see the best pull.
Longji big temperature difference between night pretty cool, I am now (in July) to wear long-sleeved evening feel.
The famous Dragon's Back of the moon Pavilion is currently being restored does not receive guests.
And then the other I have not thought Hehe. What is unknown to ask bar
