Students visit the "Walking Creek Mouth" cultural corridor.
Red Net Moment Loudi October 22 (Correspondent Zhou Weihua Li Qinzhang) "We not only learned the farming culture, but also felt the hardships of the ancestors' entrepreneurship, and also let the students experience a strong sense of nostalgia! Recently, the cultural corridor of Xikou Village in Xingzipu Town, Shuangfeng County, "Walking Xikou", welcomed a wave of children from schools in the reservoir area. Here, they carried out social practice research activities with the theme of "learning traditional culture and being the successor of the new era".
In the autumn of October, the melons and fruits were fragrant, and the teachers and students of the xingzipu town reservoir area school, under the leadership of principal Liu Lifeng, came to the Xikou Village Rural Revitalization Project- one-to-one cultural corridor to visit and study. More than 200 walls of 150 villagers on the scenic route from the dam locks to Xikou Middle School paint the traditional cattle farming, agricultural tools and the arduous historical scene of the construction of the Xikou Reservoir, with a total length of more than 2,000 meters, which is spectacular, and the strong nostalgia attracts tourists from all over the world and becomes a beautiful scenery for tourists to punch in.
The students came to the color map of agricultural life, everyone rushed to hold the big buffalo, and some naughty children also went to the plough rake on the wall. Everyone harvested joy in experiencing farming life, and for a time, the cultural corridor was full of children's laughter.

Under a huge wall painting of labor scenes, Liu Lifeng explained to the students the experience of the villagers' arduous struggle in building the reservoir in the early days of liberation.
Xikou Reservoir, also known as Shuifumiao Reservoir, started construction in September 1958 and completed in September 1959, with a reservoir capacity of 560 million cubic meters and a lake surface of 44.6 square kilometers, equivalent to 9 Hangzhou West Lakes. At that time, 25,000 villagers in the vicinity relied on hoes to flatten their burdens and built stones into a dam piece by piece, and they had no wages, cooked on the construction site, slept on the construction site, and worked hard for a whole year to finally build the dam.
"Hearing the principal's explanation, I was deeply shocked, and the dedication of the older generation is worth learning." As long as we inherit this spirit of fighting against the world, there is no miracle on earth that cannot be created. Cao Ming sighed from the bottom of his heart and said excitedly.
In addition to the students in the reservoir area, tourists with foreign accents are also visiting the cultural corridor. While pointing to the old objects on the cultural gallery, they recalled the glory days they had seen when they were children. This is the builders and their children who were personally involved in the construction of the reservoir dam in Xiangtan City to travel here and revisit the hometown.
"At this point, I saw tractors, supply and marketing cooperatives and various agricultural tools painted on the walls, and I saw the cloaks and buckets and the cooking smoke floating on the roof, which made me feel a thousand emotions, aroused the strong nostalgia in my heart, and I seemed to return to the years when I used to burn with passion." Mr. Wang Lao, a member of the Xiangtan tour group, excitedly watched with his companions.
According to reports, xikou village cultural corridor is a cultural tourism demonstration area for xingzipu town to build a cultural tourism town and build a beautiful countryside, which fully excavates the profound cultural heritage of Xikou village, embeds cultural elements into beautiful houses, and promotes an innovative attempt of farming culture, which is part of the fine line of rural revitalization and beautiful villages.
The harmonious beauty of "seeing the mountains, seeing the water, and remembering the nostalgia" has been slowly unfolded on the beautiful picture scroll of the "Walking the Creek" cultural corridor painted with ingenuity in Xikou Village. As the "palm pearl" of the "Xikou" beautiful rural boutique line, the current Xikou Cultural Corridor has become a research base for primary and secondary schools in Xingzipu Town and a net red punching place for tourists from all over the world.
