This small city, there are stars, there are blue seas, there are cooking smoke, there are Dan cliffs facing the wind, there are fantastic wonders, there is the life you yearn for, it is calm and simple, slow and melodious.
Surrounded by mountains and seas, there are often fascinating stratosic fog crossings
Fishermen go to sea, fisherwomen weave nets, and are rich and healthy
Every winter, thousands of gulls gather, wander the blue sea, and soar freely
The small city has a rich heritage and many monuments, including the Ming Loft Terrace with a history of more than 900 years, and the ancient castle built by the Ming Dynasty.
On Sundays, bells ring throughout the city, and there is a Church of Christ. The history can be traced back to the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty, where the famous American female missionary Muradi preached.
As early as 1840, the folk popular shuttle lace, after a long time, the skills were almost lost, and now the cultural relics of the small town have once again shone.
With a century-old history of viticulture, the town has achieved more than 40 varieties suitable for making high-end wines, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Riesling, Merlot, French Orchid, etc., and enjoys the reputation of one of the seven major grape coasts in the world.
Modern prose everyone Yang Shuo described it this way: "This is an ancient city nestled in the mountains and the sea, the city is not large, but the scenery is unique. In particular, the soaring pavilion on the cliff of Danya Mountain in the north of the city is more imposing. You lean on the pavilion and look at the vast and clear blue scenery of the sea and sky, you can really wash all your internal organs clean..."
This small city is called Penglai. Penglai, as the name of the sacred mountain, began in the Warring States period, and as a place name, began in the Western Han Dynasty. Penglai is the Immortal Realm. The rise of the ancient emperor seeking immortals and the blessing of the story of the eight immortals crossing the sea have made the small city shrouded in the aura of the immortal world. Qin Xian Yu Boya was on Penglai Xian Island, contemplating the mountains and seas, teaching nature, and getting inspiration from the landscape and water here, and achieving the famous song "Narcissus Exercise". A generation of literary heroes Su Dongpo, Judeng Prefecture Taishou, although in a hurry for five days, they had to see the wonders of the sea market, and wrote down "The clouds and seas in the east are empty and empty, and the immortals are haunted by the sky", which is a "sea market poem" that has been sung for thousands of years.
Penglai is mortal. The people here are pure and the people are warm. Warm and rough dialects, festivals and wedding drums, sea fishermen's carnival, delicious Penglai noodles, rich and mellow grape wine... No matter how ethereal The Penglai of the Immortal Realm is, all this in front of you is so vivid and vivid, and the city is moist.
I have a small city in my heart, living with memories, full of stories, and its name is Hometown.
