In this sweet-scented osmanthus autumn, there will always be bursts of fragrance, refreshing. There are big fat crabs, endless rice fields, and golden rice is bending over to greet the farmer's uncle! It seems to say that this year is another bumper year.
Funing has many scenic spots. For example, the beautiful White Swan Park, the antique Miaowan ancient city and the refreshing Jinsha Lake natural bathing beach are all good places to swim and enjoy the cool in summer.
Funing's most famous snack is Funing pie, which is as thin as paper, as sweet as honey and as soft as cotton. Emperor Qianlong ate it and called it jade belt cake!
My favorite Sheyang River. It gave birth to our descendants of Funing. Standing on the bank of Sheyang River, the breeze is blowing head-on, with a little taste of water. On both sides of the river are lush weeping willows, and the branches and leaves dance with the wind. Long willow branches hang down on the river and caress it. A gust of wind roared by, and the stormy waves and surging currents beat angrily against the river bank, splashing transparent "little pearls" at once. It is sometimes calm, as calm as a huge silver mirror; Sometimes I get angry. When I get angry, I open my mouth like a lion. The scenery at night is more charming. At the beginning of the night, the moon rises, the breeze is Xu Lai, and the river is rippling. The lights on the shore are reflected in the river, like countless silver snakes swimming. Melodious songs came from time to time in the distance. Walking on the winding footbridge, people will be intoxicated by the colorful moonlight.
There is also a beautiful legend about the origin of Sheyang River. According to legend, in ancient times, people in this vast coastal area had a hard life because of drought. The Jade Emperor sent a pair of "stone sheep" gods to save the world. Then, because the Dragon King was unreasonable, Shiyang was angered and fought. The ram let the ewe open a big river first, and he continued to fight with the dragon king in the sea. The ewe drives the river west with two horns, but she can't worry about the ram. She looks back at the ram from time to time, so the river twists and turns. When the ewe rushed the river to Baoying, she had exhausted all her strength and could not move forward any more. A big lake appeared where the ewe fell. Later, people called this river "Shiyang River" and that lake "Shiyang Lake" to commemorate this "Shiyang" who benefited the people. Myths have been passed down from generation to generation, and gradually, "Shiyang River" and "Shiyang Lake" are called "Sheyang River" and "Sheyang Lake".
Sheyang River is the mother river of Funing, because of her, we can survive.
