White Emperor City in the rain
Baidi City is located on Baidi Mountain at the mouth of Qutang Gorge in Fengjie County, Chongqing. Before the construction of the Three Gorges Dam, the White Emperor Mountain leans against the high gorge at its back, faces the Yangtze River in front, and is surrounded by water on three sides, and the momentum is very majestic.
After the Three Gorges Dam was completed and impounded, due to the elevation of the river, Baidi Mountain became a natural island surrounded by rivers on all sides, although cruise ships passed through
"Qutang Gorge" passes by the side of Baidi Mountain, but because the Baidi Mountain Wharf can only dock small boats, tourists on the Yangtze River who want to visit the Baidi City can only go ashore and take a car to the shore close to the Baidi City, and walk to the Baidi Mountain through the antique covered bridge.
However, due to the light rain, Zhao Cui and Ma Xiaoliang put on umbrellas and watched the scenery in the rain! Today's White Emperor City, in a broad sense, refers to the White Emperor Temple, which contains Ming Liang Palace, Wuhou Temple, Stargazing Pavilion and other Ming and Qing Dynasty buildings.

Wuhou Temple for Zhuge Liang's ancestors and grandchildren three generations of statues. The stargazing pavilion in front of the ancestral hall is said to be the place where Zhuge Liang watched the stars at night.
The left and right sides of Mingliang Hall and Wuhou Temple are hidden with famous monuments of various generations. There are also cultural relics exhibition room and poetry and history hall in the temple, which display the unearthed cultural relics since the Neolithic Age and the calligraphy and painting of ancient and modern masters.
These ancient buildings and cultural relics make the White Emperor City even more colorful. In the White Emperor Temple, there are many poems and inscriptions and cultural relics of the past dynasties.
Among them, there are the famous Bashu willow leaf bronze sword in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the relics of the hanging coffin in Qutangxia in the Han and Jin dynasties, and 73 calligraphy and painting inscriptions, pottery and bronze cash trees since the Sui and Tang dynasties, and more than 1,000 pieces of cultural relics in the past dynasties, and more than 100 paintings and calligraphy of ancient and modern masters
"Bamboo leaf stele" poetry and painting are one, with a unique style;

In the East Stele Forest, the "Phoenix Stele" and "Bamboo Leaf Stele" are the most eye-catching. The White Emperor City is not big, soon to finish shopping, and then take the ferry to play, here is also Qutang Pass, but also an important pass of the ancient East into Shu Road, since the Qin and Han dynasties is also a necessary place, because the water is turbulent, roaring and rushing, people are frightened, known
"Changing the world's heroes" is called! Baidi City belongs to Fengjie, not far from Chongqing downtown, but it is said that the best way is to take a cruise, not only to visit Baidi City, but also to visit the entire Three Gorges!
Zhao Cui especially wanted to take a boat, so she simply separated, Zhao Cui took a boat, Ma Xiaoliang drove, and then went to Chongqing to meet!
Zhao Cui thought about it and agreed, but after buying the ticket and waiting for the time of the boat, Ma Xiaoliang drove off, after all, he had to arrive before the cruise ship arrived at Chaotianmen Wharf in Chongqing!
However, Zhao Cui was worried about Ma Xiaoliang's safety, so she drove slower on the way, anyway, the cruise ship was slow! About an hour later, the cruise ship sailed all the way up the river, and the beautiful scenery along the way was endless, and there was the cry of apes!
Along the way, it was extremely beautiful, Zhao Cui stood at the stern of the boat, constantly taking pictures, and habitually called
"Little Pony", it turned out that there was no one next to him, remembering that Ma Xiaoliang was driving to Chongqing at the moment, and suddenly felt that such a scenery could not be appreciated, what a pity!
However, she turned on the monitoring of the RV and saw that the scenery outside the RV was equally charming, with green mountains and green waters all the way, Ma Xiaoliang was driving while listening to music, so comfortable!
When Zhao Cui's cruise ship came to Chaotianmen Wharf, he saw his RV from a distance, pulled the door and sat in, and found that Ma Xiaoliang had been sleeping for a while!
