If you are given a long holiday to travel.
The destination is Taiwan...
From Taipei to Tainan, Taitung,
Walk all the way along the coastline, all the way.
You may see such a situation.
Possibly, there will be such an adventure.
Accidentally breaking into a small town's seaside market or rock festival,
Was played by a group of middle-aged and elderly people out of the romance of flowers,
Moved;
Walk into the depths of the alley,
That family has been open for 60 years in Shantou Shacha hot pot,
The smell of the old days of generations wafts through here;
And the 80-year-old teacher Fu who has painted movie boards for most of his life,
Learn to paint on the streets;
Visit an old couple's dream garden cottage,
Understand what is the most beautiful destination in your life.
This scene,
From a recent Taiwanese slow variety show
- "The Adventures of old girls"
Douban's high score of 8.9 did not let it be widely concerned.
But the trip to Taiwan by three old girls has brutally healed countless people.
Yes.
The protagonist is the average age of 50 years old,
Quite surprisingly "girls" -
(From left to right) Golden Horse Actress Yang Guimei, Golden Horse Director Yan Yiwen, and Admiralty Zhong Xinling
Three iron girlfriends of Taiwan's performing arts industry got together,
Driving all the way across the sea in Taichung,
Ride the sun to catch the sunset,
Step on the waves to meet the sea breeze...
This life is like a small fire stew,
A little bit of it comes out.
At the same time, with the lens,
A little bit spread out Taiwan's fireworks in the human world,
Evokes memories from many people.
If this is a Taiwan travel guide,
Then don't go to bustling Taipei, don't go to the popular Kenting.
Light is a calm little fishing village,
Just strolling through the deep streets and alleys of Tainan,
It can make people see the persistence and beauty of life.
Kaohsiung. Small fishing port
An "art carnival" of a group of middle-aged people with slashes
It was like the three queens were excited when they set off.
Cheering to leave Taipei, he rushed south.
The old girls rushed directly to the southernmost point,
Kaohsiung.
This is the largest city in southern Taiwan.
Continue to the edge of the city,
They eventually arrived at a small fishing port, Oyster Liao.
This is the paradise of eating oysters in Zhong Xinling's eyes,
It is also the place where Yan Yiwen wants to look for a group of "slash" middle-aged people.
In the first seafood dinner facing the sea,
The legendary "slash middle-aged" people appeared one by one with humor.
Former President of the Oyster Liao Guozhong Parents Association, Big Brother Cai,
Jia Rongge, editor-in-chief of the magazine who takes care of his relatives returning home,
As well as local mayors and local youths, artists...
You may have a hard time imagining such a group of young and middle-aged people getting together,
What else can you do besides eating and drinking?
2022 is the tenth year of the founding of Oyster Rock.
It is also the tenth year of rewriting the history of a small fishing village that no one cares about.
2022 Little Rock Promotional Poster Picture by Weibo
As the most grounded legendary music festival in Taiwan in recent years,
It was born in 2012,
Founded by a group of people who don't know what a music festival is.
Talking about this past at the dinner table,
Big Brother Cai, one of the founders of Little Rock, said,
At that time, I thought it was fun, so I did it.
"After a drunken drink, I suddenly had such a thought,
Call some orchestras, we grilled next to each other for coffee, wasn't it very comfortable to lie on the sea sand?"
Documentary "Chronicle of the Fishing Village of Oyster Liao"
The slow pace of the day is the code for the happiness of the oyster people.
Every step in oyster liao,
All are full of the romance of a seaside town.
Wake up from a nap and ride a bicycle,
Zhong Xinling said to let go of her feet like a girl;
Girl Tea Party,
Taking place in a café by the sea, the theme is to talk about happiness;
In the evening, the sky is reflected in roses by the setting sun;
As night falls,
The seaside night market, open every Thursday, is crowded,
In addition to the big food,
While blowing the sea breeze, there is a game competition;
Life in the fishing village is slow, but not rusty.
This group of old, middle-aged and young people who always maintain their inner love,
Take every minute and every second of the fishing village,
From the lonely silence of the past, it has become like rock'n' roll.
Under the quiet sunset, set off a wave of fanaticism.
But ask when coming, with the way ahead.
As Yan Yiwen said,
Look at their backs, look at those who do not ask for anything in return,
I feel that this place is full of warmth and hope.
They take care of vulnerable people and families,
Founded The Hong Kong Tsai Mun Studio.
This plan was born after little rock,
Volunteers continue to promote art and cultural performances, children's counseling, etc.
Jia Rongge did not shy away from talking about the original intention of this matter,
In the old abandoned house, the community dead end was found, covered with needles and drugs...
"If we really want to do something to change, start with education."
They also founded the fishing village's first seaside market in 300 years,
Let the old things that are abandoned flow between people and people.
Let more people see the food, beauty, artistic atmosphere and warmth of Oyster Liao.
The bazaar was a success.
It was an unexpected success for the long time of the preparers.
Jia Rongge, who stinks a little, also covered his mouth and smiled,
The people of two days add up to the same person who has been in Oyster Liao for a year.
Look back at these seven days and six nights.
The "girls" who have just arrived have integrated into local life as soon as possible.
They walked through the alleys and stayed in restored centuries-old houses.
Go to the beach to pick up old things, and work with local youth to turn old things into works of art.
That's it
Walking into the oyster, you will unconsciously get involved in a scene,
You don't need to understand anything, you just need to do a good job of doing a full event.
Even if the residents don't understand what an independent orchestra is,
Even if everyone looks like a tramp,
Rummaging through garbage everywhere.
But in the years of every month of rising and setting,
The small fishing village has regained its spirit of "standing up for you, standing up for oysters".
As the song goes:
The sunset accompanies me, and the sea blows the wind.
Waves blossom, like children.
It's a sincere, passionate, fearless,
It is also a proud oyster.
Tainan. National Cinema
The moment when "The Wordless Hill" was re-screened...
In the history of Taiwan's film, there is a great movie
- "The Hill Without Words".
Director Wang Tong pushed Taiwan's "wordless sorrow" of the last century to an epic situation.
After more than thirty years, when the lead actor Yang Guimei and a number of main creative personnel,
In this century-old theater in Tainan, when I re-watched this movie,
Time seems to be going back in time.
The years are merciless.
But those who have survived the time are the touch left by the times.
After leaving the romantic and enthusiastic oyster,
The "old girls" continued south to Reach Tainan City.
Tainan, a city proud of Ang Lee,
It still retains the earliest imprint of the film.
The All-American Theater on Yongfu Road,
Built in the 1950s,
It is the place where Ang Lee often skipped class to watch movies when he was young.
Today, this goose-yellow Baroque building still stands on the old street.
Like an old man, guarding the last film memory of Tainan.
In front of the retro snack cabinet, there is an aunt who has been working here for 50 years;
Hand-torn movie tickets,
Let Zhong Xinling shout that it is still full of childhood memories;
No beautiful printed posters,
Hanging in front of the theater building is the hand-painted billboard of 80-year-old Master Yan.
For the re-screening of "The Wordless Hill",
Yang Guimei and her sisters received a special assignment.
It is to follow Master Yan and learn to hand-draw Kanban.
Looking at this conscientious old man in front of him,
I have to be admired.
He is 80 years old, has been working for 50 years, and has received more than 600 students.
His Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Will. smith
The charm is still there, vivid.
The whole of Tainan seems to have such persistence and inheritance.
Zhong Xinling said that this is a food paradise.
So the three sisters crossed the deep alley,
Found this family that has been passed down for 60 years, Shantou Shacha Hot Pot.
The steaming hot pot is the inheritance of the older generation across the strait,
It is also the hometown taste engraved in the memory of Tainan people.
Fresh soup, fragrant sand tea sauce,
Let the three "girls" fall completely.
Use the spirit of the staff to do this "lonely taste",
It is the persistence of the inheritor, Mr. Chen.
He said that his father was a veteran of Guangdong, and after settling in Tainan,
Learn from your uncle to make traditional Chaoshan Shantou hot pot,
Thus there is this small Haozhou Shacha Market that has been passed down for three generations.
"I want my children and grandchildren to be able to eat this too."
Because this is the taste of hometown, but also the memory of Tainan people.
Walk in Anping Old Street, one of the must-see attractions in Tainan.
The three "old girls" felt a strong sense of Tainan affection.
In addition to the characteristic old-style buildings,
There are also various snacks,
For example, Anping bean blossoms, Dongshan duck heads, Tainan rice dumplings, shrimp cakes, potato chips,
As well as citrus shops, ancient early children's play snack bars, centuries-old candied fruit shops and so on.
If you are facing the direction of the sea,
Through the long greenway,
Waiting for you at the end, there must be a large sea.
At the other end of the sea, is the Sicao Bridge.
At the other end of the bridge is the Taiwan Strait.
Taitung. Taiwan Houshan
Rich Aboriginal culture
Out of the affectionate Tainan,
The next stop of the "old girls" went straight to Taitung.
Taitung is located in southeastern Taiwan, east of the Pacific Ocean (Philippine Sea),
It is bounded to the south and west by Pingtung County and Kaohsiung City by the Central Mountain Range and Hualien to the north.
Taitung, known as the "back mountain of Taiwan",
Because of the mountain range, a large amount of pristine natural ecology is preserved.
For example, Sanxian Valley, Eight Immortals Cave, Zhiben Hot Spring, Nanheng Highway, as well as Green Island, Orchid Island and so on.
Taitung Dora Train
There is also a rich aboriginal culture here.
Among them, the Paiwan, Dawu, Ami, Beinan, Lukai and Bunun ethnic groups account for more than 30% of taitung's population, which is the highest in Taiwan and has different cultural beliefs.
Just like the Tosaka tribe visited by the "old girls",
Here, national beliefs and special cuisine have opened up a new world.
Worship the ancestral spirits religiously
Share the tribe's delicacies mountain rice and steamed rice
Lush mountains, deep blue seas, strange fields...
Taitung also has a variety of faces of Taiwan.
There is a deer field high platform, which is a good place to overlook the entire east coast of flowers.
There are sansiandai here, which is a famous attraction on the east coast.
Legend has it that the "Eight Immortals" got its name from the fact that TieQiu Li, Lü Dongbin, and He Xiangu once rested here.
Walking on the island, not only the magnificent beauty of the sea and sky line,
There is also the sunset and the abundant coastal vegetation.
In addition, Taitung has the highest number of prehistoric sites in Taiwan.
——
The journey of "The Adventures of Old Girls" continues.
Some people say that they like to walk like this,
I saw a different Taiwan.
There is the amorous harbor, and the reverence for nature,
There is a cultural inheritance, and the persistence of dreams,
There is also a variety of customs like Taitung.
It has also been said,
This variety show makes people move the place,
It's that we're so close to Taiwan.
It's like a steaming Shantou shacha hot pot.
With the familiar sacha sauce, it is as if you have come home.
On both sides of the Taiwan Strait, there are always all kinds of emotions involved.
Not long ago, the whole people set off a boom in looking for city labels on the map of Taiwan.
Whether it is the Shanxi knife cutting noodles out of the circle, Liuzhou snail powder,
Or Nanjing East Road, Chongqing North Road, Wuchang Street, Hankou Street, Guangzhou Street, Nanning Street, Kunming Street, Guiyang Street, Guilin Road, Wuzhou Street, Changsha Street, Kangding Road, Neijiang Street, etc.
These are all too familiar road signs, street signs,
Every one of them is the way home.
...... Waiting for the day when you can swim in Taiwan.
