Scholars often say that there are only two and a half saints in China's five-thousand-year history. One Confucius, half Zeng Guofan, and one Wang Yangming.
The name of the literature is Bang, the hometown of Yang Ming. Here is Wang Yangming, there is Zhu Shunshui, there is Huang Zongxi, Yan Ziling... Yuyao, Zhejiang, since the ancients are brilliant, talents are born. The Jingtoushan site pushes the history of Chinese activities and the history of civilization development to 8,000 years ago, and Yangmingxin has influenced the East Asian world for 500 years.

Have you ever heard that Yuyao Yangmeijia is the world. The ruins of Hemudu tell us that wild arbutus existed here as early as 7,000 years ago. In 1984, the canned sugar water of water chestnut seed bayberry won the National Silver Award, and also won the Golden Laurel Leaf Award for World Tourism Food internationally. If you also like to eat bayberry, then you must not miss the bayberry in Yuyao.
I still remember when I was a child, I carefully unwrapped the packaging of The Square Bean Crisp And carefully poured the fragile Bean Shortbread into my mouth. Bean crisp candy is a delicious memory of childhood and an intangible cultural heritage of Yuyao. In addition to the bean crisp candy, there are also soft Liang Nong big cakes, delicious black steamed buns and Ai Qing tuan, sweet maltose...

From Jingu Garden, it takes about half an hour to drive to the source of the Yao River. Emerald green tea plantations spread out in front of your eyes. The source of the Yao River is located in Sifeng Village, Dalan Town. The average altitude here is 550 meters, surrounded by mountains, verdant mountains and forests, and 10,000 acres of tea gardens looming. Whenever the water vapor is sufficient, the clouds and mist are swirling, and people enter it, just like entering the wonderland of the world. Yuyao, very early to produce a fine green tea, this tea and the water of the waterfall complement each other, was named "Waterfall Immortal Tea" by the "Tea Saint" Lu Yu, and was included in the "Tea Classic". It was introduced in the Tang Dynasty and is famous all over the world, and it is one of the oldest historical teas in the country. Although it is not as famous as the West Lake Longjing, it is also the favorite of those who understand tea.
Cicheng, an ancient town hidden around Yuyao, is a good place to empty yourself. Cicheng, a thousand-year-old city, is filled with a simple and rich historical and cultural atmosphere. Its history is long and its monuments are splendid. It is a provincial-level historical and cultural reserve and the only provincial-level ancient building complex protection area in Ningbo, and it is also the most Tang Dynasty neighborhood in Jiangnan. History, fireworks, customs, and human feelings have become more and more concentrated in the long years. Walking in the rather age-old neighborhood alleys, touching the white walls and black tiles of the old charm, here are the quiet and leisurely life of the residents of the ancient town. The small shops that have been open on the street for many years are lined with various rice cake products, which is a Cicheng rice cake delicacy that cannot be let go.
I love the scenery, I love the food and the culture of the city.
This is my hometown, Yuyao, the hometown of Yangming that you don't know.
So, come to my hometown for May Day?
