"There is a particularly interesting scenic spot not far ahead, let me take you to see it. Chen Wan'an said with a smile in the car.

This is a long time after Chen Wan'an drove out of the Sand Lake Meiyu Villa, Chen Wan'an has been on the road in the direction of the goal.

The most important thing today is to set foot on Zhongwei Route 66.

In the evening, it will go directly to Shapotou.

So the goal is clear.

It's just that on the way, Chen Wan'an became interested in an upcoming scenic spot.

Of course, mainly because you will be passing through here.

One hundred and eight towers of Bronze Gorge.

Ningxia Qingtongxia One Hundred and Eight Pagodas are the only large-scale towers seen in ancient Chinese pagoda architecture.

Located at the mouth of the last gorge in the upper reaches of the Yellow River in central Ningxia, there is a group of well-arranged, extremely regular towers.

"In fact, this Qingtongxia One Hundred and Eight Towers is a bit special in my opinion, if we don't go to it, we will miss such a tower group with great historical value and cultural heritage, after all, the tower group is still very rare in China, but if you go here, there is actually nothing particularly interesting, so it is equivalent to the kind of landmark building that many cities have, there is nothing fun to go, and it is a pity not to go. Chen Wan'an said with a smile.

Lin Qingchen nodded and asked, "Then let's go and have a look, maybe there will be some windfalls." ”

Chen Wan'an nodded and said: "We are naturally going to go, but our goal this time is to find a more experiential travel route, after all, it is to make an interesting route for your ultimate goal in Ningxia, Zhenbeibao Film and Television City, so it may be a very boring attraction for many tourists, basically most of the existing routes will have this attraction, but there is no intention to go, it is a pity not to go, it is such an existence." ”

In fact, there are such attractions in many places in the country.

Most cities will have such historical remnants, and have special significance of scenic spots, here has the most unique architectural features, but unless you are a student of architecture or extremely interested in history people will feel infinite fun here, most people are passing by.

At most, I listened to the introduction of the tour guide and gained some new knowledge.

This is why many people say that it is not interesting after traveling, and it may really be as literal as it sounds, not interesting.

However, it has to be said that one hundred and eight pagodas are one of the existing large ancient pagodas in our country, and the pagoda is from top to bottom according to the mountain, according to one, three, three, five, five, seven, nine, eleven, thirteen, fifteen? Seventeen? The odd number of nineteen is arranged in twelve rows, for a total of one hundred and eight? Can it be said that it is a large group of towers that form an equilateral triangle? Among these one hundred and eight towers, except for the first tower at the top, which is larger? The rest are small towers.

When Chen Wan'an and Lin Qingchen stood under this huge group of towers, looking up at this layered incoming? When this is a very regular triangular tower mountain-like building? In fact, there are still a lot of Buddha nature and historical vicissitudes coming to us.

It's a desolate trip.

The tower is built according to the mountain, in a top-down order, and the two sides are still desolate mountains.

The mountain is dotted with only a few green trees, and more of a raised sense of barrenness.

The adobe bricks that built the tower seem to carry a sense of history? It was ruthlessly swept by time again and again.

Rundown? Stale and serious.

"It's actually a bit interesting here, at least standing under this pagoda, I can still feel a little bit of the so-called Buddhism's free fate, maybe it's because it's a pagoda after all. Lin Qingchen raised his head and looked at Tashan and said.

Chen Wan'an smiled and said, "Of course, Buddhism believes that people have one hundred and eight kinds of afflictions? So in order to get rid of the many troubles in life, good men and women have to bring one hundred and eight beads? Recite the sutra one hundred and eight times, and it is said that the number of people who come here can get rid of a kind of trouble? If you can count all the towers in one go, you can get rid of the troubles of life......"

Lin Qingchen is in the morning? He nodded and said, "Really?" Annoyed? It's better to have less, Chen Goodnight, you'd better not lie to me, so many towers are easy to count messy, since you said that the Buddha said it, then I will believe it, after all, monks don't speak. ”

Chen Wan'an hurriedly stopped Lin Qingchen and said, "Actually, the Buddha also said that everything depends on ......."

......

"In fact, the structure of each tower here is generally similar from a distance, under a closer look, the tower body of each layer is slightly different, this one hundred and eight towers are established in the Western Xia, after several repairs of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, in 63 years, because of the construction of the Qingtongxia Hydropower Plant, the original ruins of an ancient temple and two covered bowl brick towers have also been demolished. Chen Wan'an began to act as a tour guide.

Lin Qingchen listened and nodded.

"Of course, later the cultural relics department cleaned up two Juan Cai line Buddha and brick Buddha statues, Buddhist scripture fragments, as well as stone carvings and other Western Xia cultural relics, which attracted attention, in 88 years the relevant departments of the tower area building was comprehensively repaired, and cleaned up the unearthed pottery Tiangong, Tasha and other Xixia cultural relics, these historical relics and relics can be said to have witnessed the tower area around the Buddhist Esoteric sect of the exuberant incense. Chen Wan'an looked at the ruined towers in the distance and said.

"Of course, as I just said, this place may be more attractive to people who like history and architecture, and it is a special experience to walk through here and feel the history and the past, you will not leave anything, it will not change anything, everyone is fine, but it has nothing to do with each other. ”

Chen Wan'an smiled and put down the camera.

For this, Chen Wan'an decided to give up the camera, but left a deep memory in his mind.

"Let's go. ”

The two men who got back into the car began to move on towards their destination.

The One Hundred and Eight Towers of Bronze Gorge are just a small episode.

Even for Chen Goodnight, it is a place that can be visited or not on this trip, just like the previous thought, whether it is the axis of China and Argentina or the South Gate Square, this is a very distinctive scenic spot in Yinchuan.

But I don't have to go.

The South Gate Square is a geographical business card of Yinchuan, and it is also a very old square, which is said to have been built by Zhu Di in Lingzhou in the Ming Dynasty, and Tiananmen Square was built almost at the same time, and it looks like Tiananmen Square from a distance, so it has the reputation of small Tiananmen.

Although it is only a small model compared to Tiananmen Square in the capital, the red bricks and blue tiles still look very majestic and solemn.

In Yinchuan, in addition to Nanshan Square, Lanshan Park is also a very famous place.

There is a larger square here, the square in front of the mountain, and there are two peaks behind the square, that is, Lanshan, and the mountain is verdant.

Between the two mountains, there are wide steps, hundreds of stone steps, from low to top, wide and magnificent, at the end of the stone steps, at the top of the high mountain, is another square called the summit platform.

On one side of the platform, a tall arch is Lianheng, and the screen-like Roman building resembles the Colosseum in ancient Rome.

This is the amphitheater in Lanshan Park, and the main shape is in the style of imitating the ancient Roman Colosseum.

Of course, on the other side of Lanshan is the West Lake of Yuehai Wetland, with vast waters and beautiful scenery, and it is also the largest ecological wetland in Yinchuan with the most complete landform.

When the sun sets, on the summit platform, it is said that the afterglow of the sunset passes through the wetlands and through the gaps in the fan-shaped arches of the ancient Roman buildings, which is very beautiful.

It's a pity that Chen Wan'an didn't choose to go here in the end, but went straight on the road.

This is Chen Wan'an's character.

When he came to Yinchuan, what Chen Wan'an wanted to experience was the style of the great northwest, and of course, Yinchuan also had the reputation of being plugged into the small Jiangnan.

This is also a point for many people to increase their knowledge, in addition to the barren northwest style of Ningxia, there is also the charm of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

But Chen Wan'an didn't even experience the real Jiangnan water town, so how could he experience the Jiangnan taste of Yinchuan first!

may want to compare, Chen Wan'an prefers this feeling of driving on the road and exploring the unknown.

The current road has reached the most beautiful highway that I am fascinated by.

A rural road from Zhongwei to the ancient village of North Long Beach.

Because you have to pass through the rolling valleys and pass by the Yellow River, there are places where the straight roads stretch into the distance and there is no end in sight.

This feeling is the most special.

There are no bends, the whole process is straight, and there is no end in sight.

What kind of road is this?

There are no cars on the road, no one on the roadside, all the way forward, straight to the sky.

It is precisely because of the transmission of this feeling that it will be known as the No. 66 road of Zhongwei.

It has attracted countless self-driving enthusiasts.

It also attracts a large number of Internet celebrities, men and women, who lie in the middle of the road to check in and take pictures.

......

Of course, in the United States, there is a history of Route 66, and you can see cornfields, Indian reservations, and endless deserts as far as the eye can see.

In the vast loess, cacti are scattered in it, which is full of western cowboy style.

And Zhongwei's Route 66 also has a unique scenery in the northwest.

The topography of Zhongwei is very complex and changeable, the landform in the south belongs to the loess hills and ravines, the north is low mountains and deserts, the Weining Plain in the alluvial plain of the Yellow River in the middle is the benefit of the Yellow River irrigation, the land is fertile, and the products are abundant.

Chen Wan'an's car drove on the road leading to the ancient village, and with the rapid rolling wheels, Chen Wan'an could deeply feel that his body and mind had temporarily left all the taste of modern society.

Left the forest of steel and concrete, and left all the iron cages that imprisoned souls.

Chen Goodnight: Unlimited freedom.

Lin Qingchen rolled down the window a little, and a large amount of wind poured in, blowing Lin Qingchen's hair away.

Lin Qingchen shouted at the wind outside the window indifferently.

It's a pity that the wind is too strong, and as soon as I open my mouth, the wind fills my mouth.

But the feeling of wanting to vent is vividly embodied.

The view from the window is really beautiful.

The two of them can be said to have completely fallen into the magnificent Yellow River and surrounded by mountains, as if they had traveled to an ancient and silent era.

The road ahead sometimes rises and falls, sometimes straight forward, sometimes uphill, sometimes downhill, as if it extends to the end of the horizon.

Chen Wan'an glanced at the navigation.

Sure enough, there was no cell phone signal.

In Chen Goodnight's field of vision, the road ahead is really straight and like a fantasy.

On both sides of the road are low, colorful hills.

There is not a trace of people on the straight road, there is not a trace of life.

There are no electronic devices that can stay here.

Chen Wan'an clenched the steering wheel with both hands, and the accelerator stepped on the bottom.

This feeling of galloping is finally present.

A lot of people have driven a car, and a lot of people have driven a fast car.

But the only way to experience this absolute indomitable is on this path.

There's no need to dodge any vehicles, there's nothing to turn, nothing to pay attention to, just an infinite dash.

It was also at this time that the Cruiser under Chen's seat reflected its perfect performance.

This pleasure is not felt everywhere.

No matter how you move forward, there is still a straight road ahead of you.

After a long time, the hallucinations came.

Isn't it that I have been running wildly on this endless road?

Chen Goodnight is really cool.

The thrill of driving is perfectly displayed at this moment.

There is no single path that allows you to move forward with great impunity.

Here, there is no concept of speed, the scenery on both sides of the window has moved back rapidly, and it is not clear at all, but the vision ahead has not changed much, and the distance of instant progress is obviously a lot, but it is not visible at all on this road.

Comfortable!

Chen Wan'an didn't know how long he had been driving so fast, anyway, he had enough of it and pulled over.

Lin Qingchen was a little puzzled, why did he stop before he had experienced enough of the happiness of rapid driving?

Chen Wan'an smiled slightly, unbuckled his seat belt, and then took out the SLR from the back seat.

"Let's go, let's get out of the car. Chen Wan'an said with a smile.

Although it is reluctant to drive the thrill, Chen Wan'an also has to remember his identity.

A professional travel photographer is there to capture these good times.

"You shoot it yourself, do you want me to hold it for a while?" Lin Qingchen asked with a smile.

"Well, don't make trouble, you still have to be a model for me!" Chen Wan'an was full of black lines.

Obviously, Lin Qingchen was also attracted by this straight road.

Driving here is really like driving on an alien planet.

The surrounding mountains are all rare colors and states.

Isn't this Lin Qingchen going to drive a section by himself and come back to find himself?

"Aren't you taking pictures?" asked Lin Qingchen curiously.

Chen Wan'an smiled and said: "It's right to take pictures, but there is more important thing is that this is known as the holy place for Internet celebrities to take photos and check in, just because it is not necessary to take photos here!"

"What does it mean to not be killed?" Lin Qingchen asked curiously.

"Because the effect here is so beautiful, if I let you lie or sit in the middle of the road and shoot you, and the car from behind is speeding at 266 speeds, do you say you have time to get up and run away, or do you have time to brake and stop after spotting you?
