Chapter 364: The Most Beautiful April Day
The street signs in Athens are too difficult to recognize, the road is like a maze, and the B&B is about 800 meters in front of Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, and Xueluo and Liu Jingshu have walked around it N laps, but they still can't find it. Many Indians in Athens www.biquge.info are still so unenthusiastic about helping, and when they enter the mobile phone store opened by Indians, they haven't opened their mouths yet, and they directly split their heads and said: I don't know anything.
At this time, it was already dark, and the security of the area where Xueluo and Liu Jingshu stayed was not good, and they saw a lot of drug addicts walking around, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu had to ask the clerk of a small container store, who was Indian, although they enthusiastically showed Xueluo and Liu Jingshu the way, but also pointed to the opposite road. In the end, fortunately, I met enthusiastic locals to help Xueluo and Liu Jingshu call the store.
Xueluo and Liu Jingshu finally found it, and found that they were on the opposite side, and they were also drunk. Go out at ten o'clock and take the free subway to the Acropolis. Someone said that he heard that the Acropolis is not closed, and other attractions will close early. So Xue Luo and Liu Jingshu went to the museum first, then took a small train to tour around the city, then had lunch slowly, and began to go shopping in the afternoon.
Visit the sights you saw before taking the small train. It wasn't until 8 o'clock that I walked to the Acropolis and found that it was closed. At this time, Xueluo realized that the attraction that someone said closed very early did not need to be entered at all, and could only be seen outside the iron fence, but the Acropolis was too late to go up. I only left Athens for one day, and I didn't go to the Acropolis, all kinds of regrets, I knew that I would go to the Acropolis first.
I knew that I wouldn't be shopping for clothes. After a circle around the Acropolis, reluctantly, he finally went around to the exit and stared at it from a distance, but didn't the snow fall come after all, and did he see it? At that moment, I was still satisfied. I went back in the evening to pack my things, and tomorrow I was leaving Greece and leaving for Spain.
This parting was far away, and it felt like a dream, but before I came here, I had never even seen such a beautiful scene in my dreams. There is a kind of persistence that is called a dream.
"If a person lives according to his heart, he will either become a madman or a legend!" Xueluo always thought that he was a madman, but fortunately, no matter what he looked like in the eyes of others, at least in his heart, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu were achieving their own legend step by step. Come to Barcelona and marvel at its architecture as the snow falls.
It is all Xueluo and Liu Jingshu's first understanding of Europe. Living in a building with a history of more than 120 years, taking the old antique elevator seen in the movie, sitting on the balcony at night, and quietly feeling the feelings of Europe, this is the Europe that Xueluo and Liu Jingshu have imagined thousands of times. For Snowfall, all the images of Spain are Gaudí's cities.
His passion for all things architecture was to see his miracles. Other people's photos can only show the most one-sided scenery, so all the past, the snow can only look at incomplete photos, Gaudí's city in the eyes of others. But this time, Xueluo walked through La Pedrera, Casa Batlló, and Park Güell, all of which were designed to be related to nature, which is a kind of tolerance.
A freedom, a liberation from the depths of the soul. Xueluo can finally stand at the foot of the Sagrada Familia and look up at it at a 45-degree angle, the birth and death of Jesus, and the cycle is endless. Suddenly, I felt that it was good to have faith, and what a blessing it was to have faith. Xueluo has no faith, but she uses all the beliefs in her life to chase her dreams.
Chase this endless wandering. Spain is also home to some of the most popular delicacies: paella and cuttlefish rice, and fruit market vendors display their fruit and vegetable drinks paranoidly by color. The Europe that Snowfall loves is its colours. On July 7, 2015, we transferred to the subway from the airport and arrived at this hotel.
It felt very, very far away when I was dragging two large boxes, but when I walked down the street, I felt very close. Because Xueluo and Liu Jingshu estimated that the time was too short and they spent too much time on the road, there was no one when they arrived at this family hotel, so Xueluo and Liu Jingshu had to call the landlord again to help open the door. The landlord was very nice.
At a glance, he knew that he was the kind of person who was particularly shrewd and good at being a person, and he told Xueluo and Liu Jingshu in detail about Barcelona's attractions, food, precautions, and how to use the things in the room. The price of this hotel is not cheap, but when Xueluo and Liu Jingshu entered the room, they were amazed by all kinds of surprises, it was too good value.
This is the kind of old-fashioned house you see in a foreign movie, and the setting inside still retains the quaint style, and I like it very much. Huanxi walked around the hotel several times, seeing that it was almost past six o'clock, and he was really hungry, so he was ready to go out to find something to eat. Downstairs you can go down the spiral staircase or take the particularly old-fashioned elevator.
Because the time here is so short, I want to take the elevator several times every day when the snow falls. Almost every road in Barcelona is the same, so after walking for three days in a row, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu will still get lost, especially at night when they can't see the street signs and roadside buildings. From now on, Xueluo, the reputation of the road god, was ruined and he became a road idiot.
I came to Barcelona for Gaudí's artworks, and I planned for a few days, and I couldn't miss a single one. Today's targets are La Pedrera and Casa Batlló, tomorrow the Sagrada Familia and Park Güell. I can't remember when I fell in love with Gaudí's architecture, maybe I was fascinated by reading other people's travelogues many years ago.
With its bright colors and buildings mixed with natural elements, he has always been so god-like in Xueluo's heart. The most special thing about La Pedrera is the various anthropomorphic chimneys and vents on the roof, well, this is the understanding of Snow Fall. Although she listened to the explanation, Xueluo still likes to fantasize about it as her own.
Barcelona walked a few streets to the Casa Batlló, in fact, maybe Xueluo and Liu Jingshu had walked back and forth here several times, but they didn't notice, because only without looking up, it is a super beautiful European-style building. Snowfall loved the roof of La Pedrera and the look of Casa Batlló. After watching the anime, Snowfall liked this look even more.
Let your imagination run wild, the roof is a chameleon, the terrace outside each window is a pixie, the skeleton of a dragon can be seen on the second floor, and a sword is plunged into the heart of the dragon on the top, and the elves live happily ever after. That's right, Gaudí's architecture is so naked that it uses natural elements.
Walking on the street, I saw such a big fat lying on the ground, and Xueluo, who loves dogs, habitually stretched out his hand, but he didn't expect it to habitually put his hand up, until its owner called, and slipped away as soon as he got up.
People sell fruits, sell eggs, can sell to this level, sell the level of art, what else can you say? Park Güell and Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. After a few subway turns, and a long walk, I finally came to Park Güell. Several times, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu almost thought they were lost, and they went around and around and finally found that they had entered through the back door.
No wonder it's so biased. After the back door enters, there is a long hallway. Park Güell Park turns out to be the gate, it turns out that this is Park Güell, it turns out that this is also designed by Gaudí. I suddenly realized it and glared in my heart. I think back then, when Xueluo and Liu Jingshu went to the window of the world to see this, they didn't know anything, but now that they think about it, it will be fate.
Finally came to the Sagrada Familia, and it was the place where Xue Fall had been thinking about it for a long time. Walking around its perimeter for a long time, looking up at the carvings on the wall, the sleek and plump birth face, the rigid and stereotyped death side, the eyes could not leave it for a moment. Tickets for the Sagrada Familia need to be booked online in advance and entered according to the time slot.
Do you want to describe it as gorgeous? Doesn't seem right. Do you want to describe it as pretty? That doesn't seem right. The Sagrada Familia is solemn and sacred in the eyes of people of faith. But in the eyes of Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, Xueluo couldn't find a word to describe it, as if there were no words that could completely cover it, Xueluo could only say that it brought Xueluo a shock, and it lived in Xueluo's heart.
I prefer to shoot it from a long distance on this side of the pool, which is an angle that is easier for amateurs like Xueluo and Liu Jingshu to shoot, and it is too close to it, and it feels like it doesn't look good no matter how you shoot it. In the evening, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu went to see the magic fountain, crowded with people, and I had seen it in Xi'an before, although it can't be compared with this, but it seems that the point of interest is not on this.
After struggling for several days, I finally decided to run to buy an Apple 6 when I was leaving, and in the afternoon I was going to rent a car in Montpellier to start a road trip in Europe. Think of Greece and Spain as a toss-up, but there are some things that belong to dreams that cannot be compromised. It's an honor to meet you in my lifetime.
If you don't forget, there will be an echo, and if you don't forget your original intention, you can always do it. Xueluo can't even say why Xueluo loves it, but Xueluo just loves it, loves it deeply. If it all had to do with the castle on the lawn, then all the conjectures since then have been based on this picture. What Xueluo can't forget is that there is an abandoned factory in his hometown.
Outside the factory is a field with river flowing in front of the door. Xueluo's imagination is so rich, for three years of high school, every time he rides by, Xueluo can imagine it as a castle by a French lake. This dream about France may have been born in my heart so quietly. Or maybe France is the place that has to do with universities, the green years.
The good times of college are all in anticipation. When I came to France, I realized the dream of Xueluo and her college days. Flying from China to Paris, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu transferred to Athens as soon as they got out of the airport, so the first stop in France was to rent a car from Montpellier. I never wanted to go to Provence to see the most beautiful lavender, so I always said: if you have the opportunity to go to Hokkaido to see lavender.
But this time, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu just met the lavender flowering period not sooner or later, and the sea of lavender flowers that stretched for dozens of kilometers stunned Xueluo and Liu Jingshu's eyes. Springstown, Stone Town, Avignon, Eiz, Devence, even if there are many tourists.
Xueluo and Liu Jingshu can still find their own peace, which is the peace in their hearts, they don't need to please or be disturbed. The deep mint-green lake water was quietly embedded in the mountains and rivers like jasper, so among all the lakes she encountered later, Liu Jingshu had only one sentence: The Holy Cross Lake exploded completely.
It was an accident to meet Colmar, originally along the German Black Forest route to the north, next to the small town of Switzerland in the middle, so I wanted to enter, because of the Swiss entry tax, it was changed to Colmar, and it was found on the Internet by Liu Jingshu the night before. This is the story of the primary school textbook Dude.
There is also the prototype of the town written by Hayao Miyazaki, whom Xueluo loved so much, and Xueluo can only say: It is worth the trip, Colmar is more beautiful than its name. After all, they have been looking forward to it for so many years, so when they arrived at the crowded metropolis of Paris, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu were still full of joy. Xueluo and Liu Jingshu happily walked through the Champs-Élysées.
Happy in Versailles, the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the Sacred Heart Basilica to take commemorative photos of this visit, because this is the youth of Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, this is the memories of Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, this is the most beautiful life of Xueluo and Liu Jingshu. Everyone said that Xueluo and Liu Jingshu's 45-day trip was too long, but Xueluo really wanted to say it.
Forty-five days was too short, so short that I had to give up a lot of places I wanted to go. Even if I stayed in Paris for 4 days in the end, I still couldn't go to the long-awaited and dreamy French Disney where the snow fell, and Notre Dame Cathedral and the Pont Alexandre III were just a glimpse of the wedding dress. However, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu are still full of satisfaction in their hearts.
As soon as I arrived in Avignon last night, I was stopped by a relatively short, but handsome, super-charming police brother, and the town was in a theater festival, and foreign vehicles were not allowed to enter. I only glanced outside the city and went to find the B&B, which was not booked and was too far away. It was found in the grass and jungle that it was a two-person room designed by someone in an abandoned RV in the yard.
It's actually not bad. Early in the morning, I started a tour of the surrounding towns non-stop, thinking that I could return to the town of Avignon in the evening to have a look. The water of Quanshui Town, a French spring water town, is like the water of Jiuzhai, clear and transparent. French Spring Water TownFrench Spring Water Town looks at the postcard This hole is still very beautiful, but Xue Luo and Liu Jingshu climbed and climbed, climbed and climbed up, and instantly lost their hearts.
French Spring Town: French Spring Town: Leaving Spring Town, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu came to Stone Town. Originally, there was also a stone town in Sanibar, Tanzania, and Xueluo thought it was just a name. When I came here, Xueluo found that this is the real stone town, and the houses and roads are all made of stones. Although it is a tourist attraction, it is not crowded.
The inhabitants of the town still live as usual, and the ice cream in the town is cheap and delicious, 1 euro, 1 euro, only 1 euro, and the important thing is said three times. When they arrived in Europe, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu began to think about the Italian ice cream mentioned in their trip, but this was still in France. Doesn't care about three-seven-twenty-one at all, there is a little bit of a similar feeling.
As soon as you see ice cream, you can't hold it at all. French Stone Town, French Stone Town, French Stone Town, French Stone Town, look at this stone, full of the vicissitudes of time. What about the people of Stone Town, France, what about the people, this is a tourist attraction, please tell Xueluo, where are the tourists? Look at Xueluo and Liu Jingshu Longguo, where is not full of tourists.
