Chapter 68: Chengdu Tour (3)

2019.11.11

"It's 6:52!" Peng Peng's voice woke me up. Following our plan last night, we set off at seven o'clock this morning.

At 7:09, we went out and took the subway to Xipu and transferred to the bullet train to Lidui Park. Follow the online guide to buy breakfast along the way. We couldn't buy anything, two people were cold and hungry in the cold morning wind. On the train, Peng Peng shouted: "Let's solve our stomach first!" "But there is no breakfast for sale on this train, and there is no hot water to provide, so I can only go to Dujiangyan.

At 8:49, we arrived at Lidui Park Station, and the exit station is Dujiangyan City. Find a small noodle shop to fill your stomach first. Then go to Lidui Park.

The three most important parts in Dujiangyan are the fish mouth, the flying sand weir and the treasure bottle mouth. Yuzui divides the Min River into the inner river and the outer river, the inner river is used for irrigation, and the outer river is used for flood drainage.

Flying sand weirs are used for sand discharge.

The mouth of the treasure bottle serves the purpose of controlling the amount of water intake.

Enter the scenic area from the main gate (Lidui Park) to the Cultural Exhibition Hall and Fulong Temple.

On the left side of Fulongguan is the flying sand weir and the return area. Listening to the huge sound of the inland water, I felt very shocked in my heart, and Peng Peng has not yet entered the state, his mind is still stuck in the Sanxingdui Museum yesterday, constantly analyzing and speculating with me about the source of Sanxingdui culture. My train of thought was constantly interrupted, and I didn't know if our route was wrong, so I said to Peng Peng: "Let's discuss it on the way back to Chengdu, okay?" Now calm down and appreciate the great water conservancy project of Dujiangyan! ”

"I don't feel the greatness of it, do I? Besides, if I don't tell you what I think, what if I forget my thoughts later? ”

"Let's talk as we go!" I'll talk to you too, see who can lead whom?

From Feishayan further west, cross the bridge, walk to the herringbone embankment, and go all the way north to the famous fish mouth. There are two routes to Yuzui, one along the Neijiang River and the other along the Waijiang River, and we chose to follow the route along the Neijiang River. Along the way, we listened to the explanation of Dujiangyan water conservancy design in our mobile phones, enjoyed the scenery along the coast, and arrived at the Yuzui Scenic Area.

The ancients used wisdom to create a giant diverter similar to the mouth of a fish, "fish" in the middle of the river, the water from both sides, the water of the Minjiang River is divided into two, the water of the Neijiang River is used to irrigate farmland, to solve the long-term scourge of the Chengdu Plain drought and flood problem, so that the Chengdu Plain has become a "country of abundance".

Floods and water conservancy are separated by one word, and ice and fire are two heavens. How to turn from a disadvantage to an advantage requires the creative wisdom of people. Just like our Tang Baobao, it is useless to emphasize their vulnerability, it will always be an inevitable existence. How to take advantage of the situation and turn from weakness to advantage requires our parents to observe carefully for a long time, think deeply, and develop the potential wisdom of children. I thought as I walked.

The spectacular fish mouth attracted Peng Peng's strong interest, and he stared at the fish mouth again and again, reluctant to leave. "Mom, look at that whirlpool, what does it look like?"

"I think of the Sutuan Green Pond in the article 'Three Gorges' that is very appropriate." Peng Peng's associative ability is bursting.

"I can feel the shock of this water conservancy project!" Peng Peng's thinking has finally returned to today's trajectory.

We then crossed the Anlan Bridge and climbed up to the Qinyan Tower to watch the panoramic view of the entire Dujiangyan. Pengpeng was completely conquered by the spectacular Dujiangyan.

After returning to Chengdu, we went to the graffiti wall, and Peng Peng said, "I want to paint too, how can I paint it too?" ”

I saw a wall that hadn't been graffiti yet: "I'll paint this one!" ”

The Yulin Road Tavern is a place that Peng Peng really wants to visit. His favorite song "Chengdu" mentions this place. It wasn't time for the doors to open when we went, and many people were waiting in long lines.

We finally sat in the tavern, drinking drinks, Peng Peng sang the song "Chengdu" excitedly.

We went on another trip to see the night view of the "Nine Eyes Bridge" written in the guide. On the way, I asked Peng Peng, "How does it feel at the bar?" ”

"It embodies the slow life of Chengdu."

I didn't have this experience, probably because I just accompanied Peng Peng to check in there, and I didn't feel comfortable at all in a crowded and small space.

The taxi driver dropped us off at the Nine Eyes Bridge, which simply didn't have the beauty we saw on the Raiders. We looked up and down the bridge. I took the picture on my phone and asked the assistant police officer on the side of the road, and he told me that the picture was of a nearby covered bridge and showed us how to walk to see it.

When we saw the magnificent covered bridge, Peng Peng was very happy, and the night view of the covered bridge from far and near was like a beautiful and unattainable dream, which was more and more real in front of our eyes. Approaching the bridge, there are singers singing beautiful songs on the side of the road, and the magnetic singing voice seems to penetrate our souls, and the tune has been rippling in our hearts......
