Bashui is a clear stream originating from the Qinling Mountains, after the winter snow, approaching the babbling river, at the water's edge of the north edge of the White Deer Plain, encountering the green-headed duck and the spot-billed duck flying on the surface of the water to forage for food, giving the beauty of the warm sun in winter.
Yesterday morning in the warm house, I saw the information of the snow falling on the Internet, and the beautiful imagination of the snow shadow and the water floated in my heart, and I drove to the shore of the clear stream south of Baqiao in the warm sun at noon. Passing by the bashui near National Highway 108, two stone monuments keep their steps. This place that describes the ruins of the Baqiao bridge in the Sui and Yuan Dynasties has only left a thousand years of flowing Bashui and these two stone tablets, and the Laoba Bridge, which describes countless farewell poems, is no longer there, only the willow trees by the river sway between the branches, giving people the scene of the love bridge, the broken intestine bridge, and the soul-destroying bridge in the poem.
Follow the road along the baqiao wetland park all the way south to reach the wetland park in Hexi, R&F Egret Bay Community. The winter water flows north in the river, the clear water seems to have just flowed out of the mountains, clear to the bottom, and the tufts of reeds on the river sway in the breeze, like the slow song of winter. Walking by the water's edge, looking at the beautiful scenery of the stream in the warm sun, I can't help but think of the story of The Bashui in Qin Yun. Bashui originates from the north of Majiapo in Bayuan Town, Lantian, known as Zishui in ancient times, and flows into the Weihe River through Lantian County, Baqiao District and Weiyang District at Chanba Wetland Park, with a total length of 109 kilometers. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Qin Mugong changed to Bashui, and then added three points of water to become Bashui. Liuyu Shui, Qingyu Shui and other wisps of Qinling Qingliu in Lantian County continue to flow in, giving a beautiful water feature to the east of Xi'an, Qin, Han, Tang and other literati and inkers, in the east of the ancient capital of Bashui, leaving countless beautiful admiration, sad parting feelings, but also to the Bashui mark on the thick humanities.
Today's bashui coast, wetland park in the green space and plastic trails, let the city people in the holidays to the waterside leisure, and the southernmost scenery, in the winter is sparsely populated, walking in the riverside green space, fallen willow branches, yellowed reeds, clear water, in the fresh winter, give a comfortable waterside scenery, and the grass between the trenches between the tufts of reeds, in the sun glowing bright colors, give the heart soft beauty.
Walking by the water' edge, the most beautiful agility is the green-headed duck and the spot-billed duck that feed and fly on the surface of the water, the flock of wild ducks forage in the sound of the babbling water, sometimes roaming the water, sometimes playing and playing, sometimes flying in the sky, the brightly colored green-headed duck, the green head is particularly eye-catching in the duck flock, the color on the wings of the flying duck is also very rich, blue and green flash in the sky, and the graceful posture changes the impression of the duck in the heart. A group of ducks above the Nanfei Bashui, in the background of dead branches and winter grasses, painted a series of ink painting rhymes, as if to record the sadness and sorrow of Bashui's parting.
Herons are perhaps the most common birds in Bashui, and the bashui walk startled a waterside egret, imprinting from the water's edge to the sky, with the beauty of the bashi and the background of gradual urbanization.
The stroll by the water in winter is to feel the state of mind of the most beautiful water scenery in Xi'an, and the encounter with the birds, leaving the beauty of the heart, the beauty of the flexible movement, the blessing of nature, and the imprint of the ecological beauty of the city. When encountering beauty, let your heart pray for better protection of nature, and also wish that the beauty that Qinling has given to Xi'an is getting better and better.
