After a day and a night of bumps, cars to Taiyuan. To find a good accommodation, the sky is already dark. Risking a few drops under the non-like under the rain, streaks of Ruoyouruowu facing the wind, came to a small hotel. Name to Ruyi, local small, it is very delicate, and we sat in the window a small table, watching the movement of scenery, enjoy the sumptuous food on the table, when, a few hour's drive brought about by 20 tired already vanished.
The next morning, eating breakfast heard of a place near the Chong Shansi is the unexpected excitement when one counting the days, the original was also like 15 time. Immediate temporary change of plan, first went to a nearby Chong Shansi. Did not walk a few steps, they saw much of a slip Huangwa red walls, while the nose to the constant smell of the incense smell that kind of thick, as if also speak to us of the grand mosque. Even so, can wait until the Terakado to see the temple that pile up Mojian look, we still greatly surprised. Small temple, incense is surprisingly Sheng, perhaps because worship the Goddess of Mercy's sake bar. But some strange, here not far from the Wutai Mountain, which is the Manjusri Bodhisattva's temple, why the thunder of the guests still far outweigh the masters?
Chong Shansi out, traveled to the jinci. Did not come before the imagination of more than one occasion been Jinci Ruin look. Therefore, when standing on a cross-shaped beam saw flying fish marsh Shengmu Dian, the mind is quite some excitement.
Sheng Mudian dedicated to the eup, ginger, she is the King Wu of Zhou Yu's mother, two sons-tert-three thousand years ago, tert-Ji Song-Yu's brother's a joke, so this piece of ancient land out of a multi-Jin. Two thousand years later, Song Renzong repair of this magnificent Shengmu Dian. Dian's 44 maid statue, that is, the Ruin of the first must. Listen close to a guide, this is a statue is the works of the Song Dynasty, carefully looked, 44 statues, there are 44 expressions, especially around the second statue of Our Lady is said that the expression of the two sides a-xi a sad, strange is a pity that from the outside can only see the expression of joy, it had to empty from the sad side of the imagination.
North Hall is the second Jinci must - "Cooper Qi years." One plant morphology such as the black dragon's Qiu Bo across the sky, leaning on another tree, cypress, the legend of the tree sideways was planted by the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the other one is his son, seeing his father old, will be fallen , he used his father's shoulders propped up the aging of the body. After several thousand years of ups and downs, backs son's child is still straight arm with his father, continued to perform with this father and son's feelings.
Back Sheng Mudian ago, along the marsh fly fish Liangnan line, not progressed very far when I heard a buzzing sound of the water, tight and walk along the stone steps down, through a channel. Front of a sudden a bright, hard on the old side of the spring has been. The old spring is difficult to Jinci third extinguished, and should also be the most famous one with no way out. "Jinci water, such as jade," "continuing success Cheongdam write Cuie." Clear spring water which gushed from a Cave, across a high rock Zhang Xu, diarrhea in under the lake, the stirred filled the mist. Pools surrounded by a white-marble bar surrounded by a low like the ship, called "non-line boat." Spring is hanging urn behind the mountain, "Shan Hai Jing" which said, "hanging urn of the mountain, Jin Yan of water out." Want to come and that is the legend of Liu's sitting urn suspended from this urn, come the words.
The face of three thousand years of cultural sedimentation and accumulation of unconsciously forget the time, straight play went to lunch before we left the jinci very fond memories. Back to the station, take on the long-distance truck bound for Pingyao, but also more than 100 kilometers away. Masaka sleep in the car, suddenly excited by his friends wake up, quickly rubbed its eyes and looked out the window. Not far away, quietly stands with thick ancient walls, this time I flew to Cloud Nine sleep already. Not wait until the car stopped, almost jumped out of the car, along the ancient city wall that has long been dry moat, right up to the north door. Outside the busy, very busy. Flow into the city along the north gate, the lift knee, went so far as if through the long river of time, straight into a two-hundred years ago.
Ticket number, Biaoju, pawnshops, Yamen, in the past, they've seen only in film and television scene in front of 11 come alive again. After another, in that shop in the walk through, and for a quite some flurried trance indistinct, muddy I do not know where you are, the year in Jinxi.
Cloud Jincheng After dinner, the sky has been dark. Once again walking in the same street, but it is another flavor of the. The shops on both sides already have hung up red lanterns will illuminate the original dark night extremely prosperous. Pingyao at night than during the day but also busy on the third. Gongchoujiaocuo store is not drunk endlessly; on the street is the people coming and going, busy. In this hustle and bustle of the night, we followed the flow of people bustling to experience this in a few hundred years ago, downtown.
In the ancient city of sleep a night, next morning, we have embarked on a city wall from the west gate. Compared to last night, sword Brisk walk to the guns-for-euphorbia, Qianyindichang into the Kangkaibeige; Happy made an armored cavalry turned rivers and lakes, winding means Qianrou and turned it into 100 steel smelting. At this time of the ancient city, less showtime Xu powder gas, a little more heroic love. Walking in the city's head, as if faintly see the dust in the sky that continue to stream out of the city's cavalry, the dart flag fluttering in the breeze.
Down the walls, outside the car went to the Shiji Li Shuang Lin Temple. Small temple, surrounded by a circle is not high but there is also the walls. The impression that the first time I saw the walls around the temple. I do not know because it filled the welter of catkins, or that slightest curl of cigarettes, the same walk in the walls at this time but my mind was very calm, all is not just a murderously.
Shuang Lin Temple out and earn it back to Taiyuan. The next day went to the station not far from the twin towers of the temple. There are two thirteen temple pagoda in each other, they have become a symbol of Taiyuan. Along the eastern head of Wenfeng Ta Climb the stairs and had gone through quite some effort. Up to the top of the tower, they find that the tower can only be Pingchuang afar. Read quite a while under the tower, carved along the corridor ahead. Temple towers planted Colorful peony. Unfortunately, come later in the day, most of Peony has wither. Want to come a time when in full bloom, will be yes Aromatic to the showground. Fortunately, there are clumps in full bloom, looked out from the camera's viewfinder box, human face into a peony form a contrast-hui, who knows the most is the color-yan, or smiling faces.
Sit home, car, since it can not help but miss the journey to four days and nights. Shanxi this ancient land occurred in the number of magnificent things, tert-Yu Tong Ye Ji closures, high-spirited of Li Shimin, a bit of shadow in front of us go past worthies. Looking back looked, actually some reluctant to part with them. Can hope to have the opportunity to come here to hang with the edge side of the bar around the attractions you again.
