Canal sunset wonders
My father urged me to go back to the hotel when the soft sun was setting, but I was afraid I wouldn't see the wonders of the sunset. Simply, carrying a schoolbag, go straight to the high embankment of the Grand Canal.
Before climbing the river bank, a green forest obscured my view, and I wound my way up along the only narrow path among the trees. After a while, I climbed to the top of the embankment and looked around. Suddenly, I felt free and carefree, just standing on the river bank and enjoying the natural scenery of another vast world. On the empty canal, the boat dragged a long flute, and a gust of wind passed, but the leaves fell gently. Sleep, like a leaf, slowly sails downstream with the waves.
Clear drinking water ripples like colorful giant silk, lying evenly on the river. The canal was dragged into the distance by the angel's big hand, and the jade was connected with the sky, one integrated mass.
At the end of 5th century BC, your father dug up your newborn in Hangzhou, which runs through the Yangtze River and Huaihe River. In the 7th century BC, another man noticed you, and he did the only commendable thing in his life? Realized your messy dream. You must be happy to see your smiling face like water! Because you are remembered again. The man who realized your dream is Emperor Yang Di. Another 600-year-old grading halo has witnessed your most brilliant moment! In the ebb and flow of the long river of history, are you still dripping the liquid of your life and watering the people in the north? Such a magnificent scenery makes my mind fly. Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, you are the pride of the motherland.
I turned my head and looked up at the sky. Magnificent rosy clouds surround the sun. Looking forward affectionately, the vast Grand Canal seems to have left its light and heat in the world.
In an instant, two golden peaks rose in Ran Ran at sunset, and lightning "fire snakes" were embedded in the edge of "Jinshan", emitting dazzling light. Cloud wants to do magic. One minute it pushes out a huge gray camel, and the next it becomes a flying horse?
I have forgotten the passage of time, and the night has gradually fallen around me. In the distance, a red light lit up, like a colored ball, more like a gem, flashing strange light.
Stroll along the canal
Stroll along the canal. The drizzle weaves diagonally in the air, like a net and fog. The net is so big and the fog is so light. The Guangji Long Bridge connecting the two banks of the canal and Shuibei Street on the other side are silent in this drizzle, and the shallow outlines of buildings far and near are difficult to distinguish.
The rain is chaotic. A little bit on the hair, on the skirt, on the face, very fine and broken. Just for a moment, I also fell in love with this gentle rain, and it got wet bit by bit.
Occasionally, I saw pedestrians rushing by in twos and threes on the opposite path, with umbrellas of various colors in full bloom, walking carefully on the concrete road wet by rain. Are you afraid that the gentle rain will wet their hair, or that the gentle rain will touch their clothes? Feng Zikai's pond habitat does not need an umbrella when it rains. "Don't catch it when it rains in Tangqi" means that it rains in Tangqi and pedestrians can't catch it. At that time, in Tangqi, there were wooden boards on the street to shelter from the wind and rain. Now, there are only a few left
The outline of the buildings on the other side keeps deepening, and then they appear one after another. The fog also dispersed, leaving only a few wisps in the middle of the river. Look into the river. Has the rain stopped? There are still waves of fine ripples on the river, interwoven, rendered and blurred.
There is no wind and the rain is tight again. I don't know since when several pairs of red lanterns have been lit on the street surface of Shuibei Street. The dark red light is hazy and blooms in the rain and fog. In this world of water and sky, everything seems unusually calm. It's still raining, it's still raining. Meditate in my heart: this is my hometown Tangqi.
Canal opera
The ancient canal has bred a series of famous cities and towns like bright pearls, and accumulated a profound and long-standing cultural heritage. In order to better understand the canal culture, we specially went to the Canal Museum. This is the first canal museum in China.
Among several exhibition halls of the Canal Museum, I am most interested in the "World Canal Exhibition Hall". Next, please join me in the "Canal Tour"!
When you enter the exhibition hall, the first thing you see is the picture boards of several famous canals in the world. The Volga River in Russia? With a total length of10/km, the Don River is the largest canal in the world, including 40 km of natural rivers. Holland, which enjoys the reputation of "the country of windmills", has a Venice Canal, which is anti-S-shaped and divides the Netherlands into two parts. It is only 4 kilometers long, making it the shortest canal in the world. A ship in the desert? The Suez Canal in Egypt is the only canal without sluice and the most important crossroads in Egypt. There is also the Kiel Canal in Germany, which is considered to be the most promising canal. Of course, there are many world-famous canals: Panama Canal in Latin America; Erie canal in the United States; In the Moscow Canal north of Moscow, the Russian capital? These are the world-famous Grand Canal.
But these canals are far less than the Grand Canal in China! Canals are usually used for transportation and sometimes for war. It is called a canal because it was dug by man, not formed naturally. The Grand Canal in China was built in the Spring and Autumn Period and formed in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It is the oldest and longest canal in the world. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Fu Cha, the king of Wu, dug ditches and fought in Yangzhou. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, the State of Qin built Lingqu in order to quickly unify the Lingnan area. Later, Cao Cao opened a ditch.
At that time, it was rainy in the south and rainy in the north, so the ancients flowed more than half of the canal water to the north and less than half to the south, thus forming the old saying that "seven points belong to the emperor and three points to the south". Whether it's the Emperor of Heaven or going down to the south of the Yangtze River, you have to go through the same place. Wang Nan. Wang Nan is called "water ridge". Wang Nan is called the water ridge because it is 33 feet higher than other places, and now it is about 10 meter.
Next to the sluice of the ancient canal, there will be one or a pair of water beasts. Old people often say: touch its head, don't worry! Now, the head of Shuizhen beast is so smooth that it feels like a thick layer of oil is coated on its head, but its body is very astringent. The top of the town water beast is that people keep touching it to form such a unique landscape.
The magnificence of China's Grand Canal prompted Zhang Zeduan, a painter in the Northern Song Dynasty, to draw the world-famous Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival! Among them, there are different clothes,
People from all walks of life, all kinds of livestock, boats and houses, trees and so on. There are also various activities interspersed in the middle, which are lifelike, the best and amazing!
With the passage of time, many ancient cultural relics sunk at the bottom of the canal have been excavated, but there are still many cultural relics sleeping in the sand, quietly waiting for us to discover and excavate. Maybe decades, hundreds, even thousands of years? One day, we will let them see the light of day!
I love you, Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal! You are the pride of the Chinese nation!
Night tour of the grand canal
A month ago, I heard the name of Brother Curly, and I was curious about Brother Curly. I imagine that he is a foreigner with yellow hair? Maybe a China man with a long nose? Don't! Don't! Don't! I came to the Canal Museum early tonight, and finally saw the true face of Brother Curly. It turned out to be a handsome big brother with curly hair. Tonight, he will lead us to visit the Grand Canal. I am looking forward to it!
When the sun goes down and the lights are on, the activity begins. First of all, we entered the answering session, and we learned about the customs and specialties of Hangzhou. Brother curly is so talented that he said an idiom in his specialty: "the thought of perching." It means homesickness, because the north can't eat shepherd's purse and perch, and it is the feeling of wandering in the north that misses the south. Then we performed on the stage of the first film screening in Hangzhou. I didn't expect our friends to be versatile. I sang Westlife's mylove on the stage, and everyone's performance was great.
Then we came to Chen Gong Bridge, the tallest and longest stone arch bridge in Hangzhou. It spans the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal connecting the north and south of China, and is the southernmost part of the Grand Canal. The golden sunset shines on the river, and the river is like a lovely smiling face, showing a bright smile. On the sparkling water, the giant lying on the water is the son of a dragon. They worked day and night to protect the passing ships from capsizing.
Crossing a long alley and Dengyun Bridge in the south of the Yangtze River, we came to the motorcycle park. This railway from Qiantang River in the south is the earliest train route in Zhejiang history, and this is the railway relic park. Although there is only one locomotive left, I think it is particularly beautiful. I climbed the locomotive happily and imagined its first day on the road.
In front of the motorcycle, there is a device in the camera. Brother Curly teaches us how to draw with light. I stood in front of the camera, waving a flashlight at the camera, and then recorded it, becoming a beautiful picture.
After this trip, I know why Emperor Yang Di built this canal. I always thought he wanted to see the Qionghua in Yangzhou, and specially built the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to facilitate his visit to the south of the Yangtze River. It turned out not to be. He wanted to transport the grain from the land of plenty in the south of the Yangtze River to the barren northern land, and specially built this canal. Emperor Yang Di was not as bad as we thought.
We had a meaningful day, a very happy day, and not only learned about the customs of Hangzhou.
I like the beautiful Grand Canal.
My hometown is in the beautiful Jining, and an ancient canal slowly passes through this modern city with many tall buildings.
In the early morning, a veil-like mist floated on the river. Strolling along the banks of the canal with fresh air and trees, accompanied by the crisp songs of birds, seems to be in a fantasy.
During the day, the scenery along the ancient canal is unique. The sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, and the river is sparkling and silver. Overlooking the Grand Canal, it is like a beautiful Avenue of Stars and a winding Jasper Belt, with infinite scenery. On rainy days, raindrops, like strings of sparkling pearls, slowly fall on the river, splashing one after another, forming a cheerful "raindrop sonata", which is beautiful and beautiful!
As night falls, the sunset glow scatters gorgeous brilliance on the canal. Colorful city street lamps and colorful neon lights on high buildings seem to have joined the activities of dressing up the ancient canal. The brilliance on both sides of the river is faintly reflected on the water, just like putting colorful "colorful clothes" on the canal. How beautiful!
The Grand Canal is the glory and pride of our Chinese nation, adding infinite beauty to my hometown. I love my hometown and the beautiful Grand Canal!
