At 11:30 a.m. on April 19, 2045, the female conductor on the bus that picked up tourists from Wangcheng Peony Garden told everyone with a microphone at the front of the bus: "You tourists have arrived at Wangcheng Peony Garden at the intersection in front of you, and after you get off the bus, turn right at the intersection and go west for 100 meters to the entrance of Wangcheng Peony Garden." Our bus stopped right on the north side of the junction, wishing you all a nice journey and goodbye. ”

The bus that picks up and drops off tourists stops 50 meters north of the intersection, and a car of people gets off one after another. Tian Xiaorui and my parents and I got off the bus with the passengers and followed the tourists towards the entrance of the Peony Garden in Wangcheng. The big walls of the Wangcheng Peony Garden are very high, and they are all antique large blue bricks. Tall trees are planted on both sides of the street, flowers and grass are planted underneath, and the ground is paved with concrete pavement bricks. Turn the corner and continue west, the north side of the sidewalk is an antique tourist souvenir shop, which is crowded inside and outside the store, and it feels like business is quite prosperous. But there is absolutely no such thing as a street stall or an out-of-store shop. Standing in front of the small square of the peony garden, my mother said, "It's time to have lunch, let's eat outside and then go in, or go into the garden first." My father said, "There must be food and drink in such a large peony garden, let's talk about it in the garden." I asked, "Xiaorui, what do you say?" Tian Xiaorui said: "It's not too late to eat after shopping, after all, we ate breakfast late." Xiaorui's statement, my mother said, "Okay, let's go to the garden first." ”

The four of them entered the Wangcheng Peony Garden from the herringbone electronic ticket machine, and turned north from the south side of the east. The eastern part of the area is an amusement park with playgrounds such as wooden horses for children to ride. According to other scenic spots, this should be a place to eat, drink and have fun, and after looking around in the scenic spot, I found that there is no catering service facility in the eastern scenic spot except for a few tall ancient trees to cover the sky and the sun. My father couldn't help but mutter, "Why is there no food stall in such a big garden?" Tian Xiaorui said: "It seems that many cultural tourism venues have canceled the temporary vendors in the past in order to maintain the original appearance of the scenic spot. My father said, "That's fine." The original appearance of the cultural relics is maintained to the greatest extent, which is the original flavor of the cultural relics. I said: "I just saw at the entrance of the scenic spot, here was once the ruins of the royal city in the Western Zhou Dynasty, with a total area of tens of thousands of square meters. This peony garden was built on the site of the Western Zhou Dynasty Wangcheng. ”

My mother pointed to a second-floor venue on the west side and said, "There is an exhibition of calligraphy and painting in the Central Plains Province going on over there, so let's go and visit it first." Xiaorui said, "If my aunt wants to go, let's take a look first." ”

Xiaorui and I accompanied our parents from the eastern recreation area to the central exhibition area of calligraphy, painting and art. Standing on the steps of the exhibition area, looking south, the south side is a stone paved road with holly trees planted on both sides of the road, which is directly entered from the main entrance. Separate the corridor from other scenic spots.

The four of them walked into the calligraphy and painting exhibition area on the first floor and found that the first floor of more than 1,000 square meters was divided into several small partitions, and there were many calligraphy and paintings hanging in each small partition. There are works by famous artists and works by less famous painters. Some of them are pasted into scrolls of calligraphy and painting, and there are also calligraphy and painting works that are written and painted first. After seeing the calligraphy and painting works, Tian Xiaorui said: "There are so few people who can still understand the art of calligraphy and painting, and there are really not many opportunities to see such beautiful calligraphy and painting works." I said, "See, most of the calligraphy and painting works here are peonies, flowers and birds, and they are exhibited here to sell flowers and birds." It's a rare and good place. Xiaorui said: "Well, it really complements each other." ”

After visiting the calligraphy and painting market, I walked up to the second floor and found that the second floor was relatively sparsely populated. The exhibition on the second floor is full of silk artworks. A large exhibition hall is divided into smaller platforms. There are all kinds of silk flower works on the platform, and after seeing these vivid silk flower works, my mother said, "It's so big." I realized that the silk flower is so beautiful, just like the real thing, you see the name is good...... Rich and noble, auspicious, Danfeng Chaoyang. Tian Xiaorui was also amazed when she saw it. See I don't speak. Tian Xiaorui asked: "Continue, what do you want." I said, "I can't believe it's true." My father also said, "I have never seen such beautiful silk flowers." ”

After watching the exhibition of calligraphy, painting and art, the four walked out of the pavilion of the exhibition from the west side. Standing on the platform on the west side and looking at the west and south sides, the whole west side and the south side are near patches of peony flowers, which are planted in the nursery, and the peony flowers in each area are separated by bamboo fences. In the upper part of the peony garden, in order to delay the flowering period and extend the opening time of the peony flowers in the peony garden, there is a black shade net on it, so that the flowering period of the early-blooming peony varieties is delayed by several days, and there is a time guarantee for more tourists.

Walking down the steps of the pavilion, it was noon at the moment, but most of the tourists came from afar, and everyone did not have time to have lunch to visit the peony garden. At the moment, there are many tourists, and visitors come and go in the passage of peony flowers, which can almost be described as shoulder to shoulder, and it is really not easy to find a suitable location for taking pictures. In front of the sea of peony flowers, I took a commemorative photo of my mother and Xiaorui, and my mother also took a group photo of me and Xiaorui, which was the first official photo of me and Tian Xiaorui. Xiaorui said: "Uncle, aunt, let me take a group photo of you too." "My father hugged my mother's waist, and the two of them naturally approached each other, and Tian Xiaorui took a commemorative photo for my parents. After filming, Xiaorui said: "Continue, you take pictures together." I quickly stood behind my mother, and Tian Xiaorui pressed the shutter again and took a picture of our family. I took out my phone, and after Xiaorui finished taking pictures, I used my phone to take a picture of Xiaorui. Xiaorui said, "Show me how well you shoot." I handed the phone to Tian Xiaorui, Tian Xiaorui took a look, pouted and said, "The effect is not good at all." I said, "Don't be afraid, you stand in front of the rich peony, and I'll take a new picture for you." Tian Xiaorui walked in front of the red rich peony flower, and the flower was blooming red. The bright red flowers and yellow stamens look rich and magnificent. Tian Xiaorui used the big red peony behind me as the background, and I shouted: "Call me eggplant." Tian Xiaorui smiled, and I took pictures of this sweet moment with my mobile phone.

Walking among the peony flowers, ten steps a kind of peony, the peony flowers are colorful, there are red, purple, ink, white as jade, white as snow, orange, apricot, golden. According to the propaganda materials, peony originated in the Nanshan area of the Qinling Mountains in China, during the Tang Dynasty, a large number of peony were artificially planted, introduced to the sunset city, and then cultivated through the dynasties, the sunset city peony became famous all over the world.

From the Peony Garden to the north, there is the water park in the Wangcheng Peony Scene Area, where we see adults with children, or young couples riding a surf boat together to slide down from a high place, splashing more than a foot high, the scene is really exciting. I said to Tian Xiaorui, "Let's go sit down too." Tian Xiaorui said: "I don't dare." ”

From the water park to the west to find the zoo, found that the west is separated by a lake area, there is a suspension bridge connecting the east and west sides, after the suspension bridge found that there is the real Western Zhou Dynasty Wangcheng ruins, there are a large number of pine cypress and other ancient trees in the open space of the Western Zhou Dynasty Wangcheng ruins, the ancient trees are also planted under the peony flowers, but the peony garden here has passed the flowering period, occasionally you can see one or two peony flowers that have not bloomed. Most of the others have been cut off the remaining flowers, and only the branches and leaves are still growing silently, waiting for the next year's prosperity.

In the northwest corner of the ruins of Wangcheng, we finally found the zoo, in the zoo we only saw a few birds, not lions, tigers, wolves and other wild animals, there are two dogs and bears lazy in the enclosure and do not come out. My father went to the zoo and exclaimed, "Fooled." ”

After visiting the zoo, I walked back the way I came, walking past the two tall palace gates at the gate of the Western Zhou ruins, and I snapped a photo of Xiaorui, my mother, and my father, who were walking down the high steps. After careful identification, I saw that the two buildings in front of the gate of the palace turned out to be ancient lighthouses.

After visiting this Wangcheng Peony Garden, we came out of the West Gate exit. My mother looked at her phone and said, "It's half past one, let's find a place to eat." I said, "Well, I'm hungry." ”

My father pointed to a Shaanxi noodle restaurant in Lunan and said, "I don't see any decent restaurants nearby, so let's go eat noodles at noon." My mother said to Xiaorui, "Girl, it seems that we can only settle for noon." Tian Xiaorui said: "I can eat anything." My mother asked, "Continue, what do you say?" I said, "To save time, let's have something nearby." My mother said, "Okay, then let's eat noodles." "The four of us were walking east along the main street as we planned our afternoon trip.

Rounding the intersection and finding the noodle shop from the south side of the road, my mother asked for four bowls of Shaanxi braised noodles, and added a braised egg to each bowl.

Don't look at the small noodle restaurant, because of the special geographical location, business is booming at the moment. One group of customers left, and the other waited in line.

After waiting for a short time, the waiter brought four bowls of Shaanxi braised noodles, and the four of us sat at a dining table to continue planning the next step, and finally decided not to go to Sanmenxia Reservoir, and went directly to Longmen to see the grottoes in the afternoon.

After lunch, we went to the bus stop to ask people about the bus to go to Longmen Grottoes, and a young woman on the side of the road told us: "Take No. 3 to the ruins of Sui and Tang Cities, get off and reverse No. 6 to go directly to Longmen Grottoes." I said, "Thank you." The other person said, "You're welcome." ”

At this time, bus No. 3 came from the west, and the young woman got on the bus with a few of us. Getting on the bus, the front of the bus was crowded, and we walked all the way to the back of the car, and found that although the back was looser, it was still full. Everyone had to stand, the bus started, and drove all the way to the east. (To be continued......)
