Speaking of Yangzhou, her beauty has always fascinated countless literati and scholars throughout the ages, different from the beauty of Suzhou and Hangzhou, she is exquisitely beautiful, beautiful through time and space, and her face is ageless. The ancient canal runs through the city, quietly flowing with the waves of history, telling people about the past and present lives of Yangzhou City, and a timeless memory of Jiangdu.
Some people say that a history of the development of the Yangzhou Canal is almost a history of the development of ancient Yangzhou. Yangzhou is closely related to the ancient canal, which feeds Yangzhou and is also the "root" and "soul" of the ancient river capital. The ancient canal not only connects the past merchant ships, but also records the historical changes of Yangzhou from ancient times to the present, the Tang Dynasty Jian Zhen Dongdu landed in Yangzhou, and the Qianlong Liuxia Jiangnan also stopped in Yangzhou many times. The Yoyo Ancient Canal has left countless popular poems - "The old man said the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, fireworks fell in Yangzhou in March", "The spring breeze and the south bank of the Green River, when will the bright moon shine on me", "The building boat snow Guazhou ferry at night, the iron horse glacier into the dream"...
The memory of the ancient canal is also the memory of Yangzhou, the lively and extraordinary water transport dock in ancient times, the beautiful spring sunrise on the shore, the amorous prince of "ten years and one dream", the eternal moment under the night of the spring river flower and moon - the tide of the spring river is even with the sea level, and the bright moon on the sea is born together! Along the canal tour, the boat pushes the waves, the scenery moves with the boat, enjoy the good time of this spring day, there is a way is "the sunrise river flowers are red than fire, the spring river water is as green as blue, can you not remember Jiangnan?" ”
Order a few plates of Fuchun Tea House's special refreshments - jade roasted wheat, double hemp shortbread, crab yellow steamed dumplings, mille-feuille oil cake, bite down, the tip of the tongue to step on the endless taste of Yangzhou food, as if to go to a gourmet feast, beautiful and wonderful! Far from the troubles of the world, although the ancient canal has gone far away from the bustling business travel of ancient times, it has now assumed the heavy responsibility of the south-to-north water diversion, and the memory of Jiangdu in the ancient canal is being given a new connotation, and it has new vitality and vitality with the times.
"Fireworks in Yangzhou in March", perhaps you will want to go to a visit to Slender West Lake, visit He Garden, eat the food of Dongguan Street, and the ancient canal that carries the style of Yangzhou for thousands of years is more worthy of your song and travel, to reverie the memory of jiangdu that belongs only to Yangzhou.
