In the early morning, in the "train forest" of Lujiatang Road, Yongde Road, birds chirping are heard from time to time, the red, yellow and blue three-color trail winds in the forest, citizens or leisurely walk or chat on the bench, strollers come in one after another, and there is a saxophone wind in the distance. Look carefully, there are a few more huge wooden lattice photo frames with ancient poems written in the forest, "Shangyi Pavilion" has added a large screen, and the classical small signs on both sides of the trail are adding cultural atmosphere to the woodland...... Originally, this nearly 60,000-square-meter ecological leisure woodland has quietly become a comprehensive cultural space integrating natural beauty and cultural heritage by integrating local cultural elements of Wujing, and has a new name: Cherry Yaji Cultural Forest.
Train Forest + Cherry Collection
The Cherry Yaji Cultural Forest is located on the west side of the Cherry River and the east side of Lujiatang Road, and the whole forest is built along the Cherry River. At the beginning of this year, the conservation forest located on Lujiatang Road, Yongde Road, was upgraded into an open recreational woodland in Wujing Town, a "train forest", by adding urban landscape sketches and ingeniously integrating with the surrounding environment. Walking through the forest in your spare time, the fragrance of osmanthus is refreshing, a railway track close to the river, and occasionally a freight train passing by, which is also a rare scenery in the city.

Cherry River north from Yutang River, south to Huangpu River, through the north and south of Wujing Town, has thousands of years of history, its name has also undergone evolution and left a lot of legends, "Yingdou Lake", "Xingdou Lake" and "Xingdou River" have also been circulating. This renovation and upgrading revolves around the cultural elements of Cherry River.
Along the way, the fine sentences on both sides of the path make people feel the elegance of the literati and ink artists, and you can imagine the scene of the literati chanting poems and paintings. A small photo frame is embedded in the Northern Song Dynasty Mi Fu's masterpiece "Wujiang Zhouzhong Poems". Legend has it that during the Northern Song Dynasty, Mi Fu, a famous calligrapher and painter who was the supervisor of Qinglong Town, passed by the Cherry River by boat, and suddenly Yaxing wrote this article. In the poem, there is "watching the warbler Dou Lake, and there is no end to it." A drop cannot be drawn, and the West River is far away", lamenting that Yingdou Lake is vast and boundless, and it cannot be crossed.
Let more people know the legend of Yingdou Lake
Another picture frame also shows the Yuan Dynasty essay "Mountain Slope Sheep · Taoism", which depicts the style of the Huangpu River 700 years ago. According to legend, the author Song Fangju (also known as Song Zizheng) lived in seclusion on the shore of Cherry Lake and wrote "Poverty, anger does not change; Reach, will not change". This work was also sung by singer Zhou Bichang on the stage of CCTV's "Classic Chants", and it became a good story for a while.
It's also a "cultural journey"
The design of the cultural forest integrates the classical garden style into it, creating a sense of pavilions and pavilions and winding paths. Legend has it that during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, after the Shanghai County talent Jiang Xing was admitted to the Jinshi, the government wanted to set up a memorial arch for him to show his commendation, but he said that instead of building a monument to honor his own family, it was better to build a bridge to facilitate the neighbors, so he funded the construction of the Shangyi Bridge on the river, which greatly facilitated the travel of the local people. In order to commemorate Jiang Xingzhong's righteous deeds, the "Shangyi Pavilion" in the forest is built to inherit and praise his spirit, and a fresh and elegant screen has been added to the construction of the cultural forest, and the hollow design can be seen across the river at a glance.
"Shangyi Pavilion" can be used for people to relax
A new hollow screen is added to the pavilion, which is fresh and refreshing
"These new facilities allow people to better understand the history of this place." The two old men chatting under the pavilion told reporters that they have lived here since they were children, and there have been stories of two large families surnamed Xing and Dou, they said, "Come here every day, the woodland is at the entrance of the community, the air is fresh, and the environment is good."
Along the trail also inserted 12 pieces of "Tianjia Yueling", showing the style of the 24 solar terms in the style of the Soviet-style garden, after visiting this woodland, it seems that the four seasons of the year have been completed for 12 months, time and space happen to be fused together, and the classical style of the moon token log color is also an excellent photo check-in point. Trains roar by, railroad tracks stretch into the distance, the Cherry River flows, and woodlands connect to the trails, weaving a moving autumn picture.
The "Tianjia Month" festival from January to December is full of farming culture
Relying on the landscape design along the railway, the cherry Yaji cultural forest is about 900 meters long, covering an area of nearly 60,000 square meters, widely planted with luan, metasequoia, camphor, privet, cherry, purple leaf plum and other ornamental tree species, the upgrade integrates the concept of "greening + culture", empowers the construction of greening with culture, enhances the cultural connotation of green space, and on the basis of retaining the original ecological beauty, it integrates with forest woodland and clean government green space in space, injecting new cultural elements into the pocket park at the doorstep.
