It was already afternoon when I walked all the way from Lanzhou to Qingchuan County, and I came to Qingchuan County in the drizzle.
As soon as you enter Qingchuan County, you can see billboards everywhere that "Panda Home, Qingxiu Mountains and Rivers". Of course, it is all up to luck to see pandas, but the beautiful mountains and rivers are right in front of you.
All the way from the sparsely wooded Loess Plateau to the green country of Bashu, there is infinite joy in my heart.
There is a river running through the city in Qingchuan County, and the two banks are also clean and tidy riverside roads, and the tung flowers on the road are in full bloom, and the fragrance is blowing in the face. The triangular plum is naturally not to be outdone, the green tung, the red maple, the red and green are intertwined, and under the moisture of the drizzle, it looks extraordinarily fresh.
On both sides of the river are patchwork houses, and the county is surrounded by mountains. It was extraordinarily quiet in the drizzle.
The river is so clear that it reflects the green hills and houses on both sides, and I asked passers-by, "What is the name of this river that flows through the county town of Qingchuan?" "Passers-by told me that it is called Qingjiang River, and some people say that it is called Qingzhu River, which is a tributary of the Jialing River.
I suddenly wondered who gave so many beautiful names to this magical land of Qingchuan. Qingchuan County, Qingxi Town, Qingzhu River, Qingjiang River, the word "green" can be described as the finishing touch. The main color of Chinese landscape painting is turquoise, cyan is a calm and gentle color, she is elegant and quiet, subtle and inclusive, full of vitality.
reminds me of Xin Qiji's sentence, "I see how charming Qingshan is, and I expect Qingshan to see me like this." ”
Continue to stroll in the county town surrounded by green hills, unconsciously came to the panda park in the green grass holding a cute panda statue, attracting our attention, those pandas or squatting, or lying, or crawling, or playing...... The cutest thing is that the two pandas sit next to each other and actually look through an open book.
The meadows are full of blooming flowers, colorful and fragrant, attracting bees and butterflies to fly. With a breeze and a dreamlike experience, it's no wonder that even the giant pandas linger here. On the banks of the Qingjiang River, this is their paradise, and it is also a place where we are intoxicated and indulged.
After walking for a long time in the slanting wind and drizzle of Qingchuan County, we originally planned to live here, but it was still early to see the time, and it only took more than an hour to reach Qingxi Ancient Town from Qingchuan County, so we decided to take the national highway and slowly go to Qingxi Ancient Town.
The scenery on the national highway did not disappoint us. As we walked through the mountains, we would occasionally see houses with white walls and black tiles passing in front of us.
At first, the 543 National Highway was wide, but when we reached the 121 County Road, the road conditions were not very good, some sections were under construction, some sections were potholes, and there were very few vehicles walking in the valley, so we wondered if the navigation was a mistake. When the vehicle was driving on the country road, we couldn't see a car for a long time, and we wondered if we were the only one in the mountains to go to Qingxi Ancient Town.
The joy and anticipation of our trip quickly dispelled our worries. No matter how we follow the navigation, we believe that we will always get to where we want to go.
Due to the bad road conditions, and every time we go to a scenic place on the road, we will always stop the car, stop and watch for a while, and just stop and go. It was not until more than six o'clock in the afternoon that I arrived at Qingxi Ancient Town.
To our surprise, as soon as we entered the ancient town, there were vehicles everywhere, people everywhere, we don't know which way they came from, but from the point of view of the tension of the accommodation, everyone may have already arrived in Qingxi Ancient Town, the owner of the B&B said that some people have been living here for a few days, and the accommodation tomorrow night will be more tense and the price will be higher.
We are secretly glad that in this beautiful season, we can walk freely, in the landscape like a picture scroll, feel the beauty of the years, but also feel the joy of the heart. Whether it is the flowers in spring or the green leaves in summer, they are telling me the meaning of life, telling us to cherish the present and cherish the beauty in front of us.
