The elder's desire is to go to Guo Huashan to see monkeys, so he took his elder across half of China from a village in Jianghan Plain and went to Lianyungang on the National Day of 20021.
The speeding intercity train arrived in Lianyungang, a city of mountains and seas. A string of shell wind chimes and several dances of Tang priest and apprentice in Huaguoshan Scenic Area have marked the first trip in October with deep memories.
The two golden hoops brought back to the hotel from Huaguoshan were put under the table because they couldn't fit into the suitcase. After finishing the turndown service, the attentive room staff of the hotel left two picture books, snacks and slippers for the children, and returned to the hotel after dinner at night, feeling that it was an extra surprise from the fairy sent by Sun.
On the trip, you don't have to see breathtaking scenery or taste special food. Sometimes, you can watch the local people's life on the streets in different places, choose some feed by the pool, sit on the floor in the sun and feed the fish with the halo of the sun Sheng Da, which is also the most beautiful scenery you can harvest along the way.
Going out of my familiar environment, finding the wonderful things in ordinary life elsewhere and feeling the beauty of life with my heart are the significance of traveling with my elders.
Traveling with elders is a mobile strategy. It took you a long time to make an ABC plan before you left. The first step in making a plan is to determine the main tone of the tour.
Be close to the seaside, see the mountains, the sea and the Huaguo Mountain. When this tone is determined, just choose a place to stay, and then determine the traffic route and play plan, so as not to lose focus and maximize the time utility of travel.
After a day's play, I went back to the hotel after dinner, and I had the energy to look at the photos and write down a few lines as the time stamp for punching in a day. In the hotel, there is usually not much thought and energy to do the next day's play homework, but at most it is based on the conversion or fine-tuning of ABC plan prepared in advance. ?
Among the four classical literary masterpieces, The Journey to the West is deeply branded as Huaguoshan. Yuntai Mountain is the ultimate destination of heroes in Water Margin.
Regardless of the urban customs and the scenery of old streets, Yanhe Lane, Zhu Min Road Old Street and Haizhou Ancient City are all destinations that can be included in the ABC plan. If you like to see the mountains and the sea, just pick a suitable season. Guo Hua and Yuntai Mountain on the sea will give people a sense of fairyland.
At the foot of Guo Huashan, there is the tallest and earliest stupa in the coastal area of China. It was the Ashoka Tower built during the reign of Emperor Tiansheng of Song Dynasty (1025). After thousands of earthquakes, it is surprising that craftsmen at that time built this stupa, or the stupa itself was blessed by God and was safe and sound again and again. Du Jie.
Opposite Jinling Yuntai Hotel is Cangwu Green Park, the largest public green space in Lianyungang. Cangwu is one of the ancient place names in Lianyungang, and it is "a gloomy Cangwu seamount". Su Dongpo, a travel gourmet in Song Dynasty, once recorded his impression of Cangwu in his poems.
There is Cangwu Green Garden in Haizhou District. In Lianyun District, Beigushan Ecological Park is not far from Haiyifang Park. People who like to walk between mountains and seas are close to here.
Measuring Lianyungang with my own steps, I found that her evaluation of Raiders is much more wonderful than others. ?
When I came back from Huaguoshan and arrived in Lianyungang, I always felt something was missing without seeing the sea or the island. Although I caught up with the bad weather, I won't feel sorry when I went to the island.
Therefore, Grandma Bao was encouraged to eat a hearty breakfast, go out by car, pass the "Haiyifang Park", drive past the 6.7-kilometer-long "Shenzhou No.1 levee", the longest seaward levee in China, and enter the Liandao Scenic Area.
This seawall levee and island, remembered in Greece three years ago, the locals said it was not Evian Island because there was a bridge connected with the land.
Whether the locals think it is an island or not, it is an island in the eyes of our tourists.
Like the Peloponnesian Peninsula, although the Collins Canal abruptly cut it off from the Greek mainland, it is still a peninsula, and Crete is the first island.
Because of the island, I wandered too far at once and returned to Liandao, which is enough for people who don't have much chance to get close to the sea.
Although it is early October and autumn, it is not suitable for swimming on the beach because of the strong wind. Coming here to feel the breath of the sea has left a lot of regrets for my first trip to Lianyungang.
I traveled a lot and became keen on buying souvenirs. Later, I gradually stopped buying souvenirs in places I like to travel. First, I am tired of holding it, and second, I put it in the house, which is also full of dust.
All kinds of wood carvings and small Lafite returned from many African countries have been to a place until now, leaving only a thousand memories without taking away half a cloud.
The reason for the outbreak is that the stalls selling local tourist souvenirs have a good business this year, about two months, and the business is not good. 50 yuan, the innocent elder sister, sold two wind chimes made of shells.
This small suitcase can only hold a few clothes. Sitting on the train, I suddenly felt that I bought less shell wind chimes. Why not buy more strings when you catch up with this day in a year? I am very happy for people and myself.
At the beginning in Egina, Greece, a small shell wind chime cost 10 euros. According to the number and modeling difficulty of shells, even the shell wind chimes of the big sister on the island should cost at least 20 euros.
But this time in Lianyungang, I was deeply impressed by the seashell wind chimes in Liandao, or my elders suggested buying them for Erbao. I chose seashell specimens, took a fancy to wind chimes, and hung several strings on the balcony, extending the island style to rooms hundreds of miles away.
Then the wind chimes made of authentic shells are beautiful for decoration or commemoration. It seems that you can hear the sound of the waves and smell the sea. ?
After waiting for the bus at the station for more than 20 minutes, I began to teach my elders how to take photos and video with their smartphones. I practiced several times on the Mercedes-Benz train and arrived at Huaguoshan. After the "rapid development" photography skill was unlocked, grandma who stayed in the countryside for more than 60 years finally kept shooting all the way, especially the square dance of Father Tang and fairies. Under the dance music after dance music, my mobile phone never stopped and finally forgot to come.
I swiped my ID card and bought a big ticket for the scenic spot in advance. I went into Guo Hua to see monkeys. I went to Yunv Mountain, the highest peak on the top of the mountain, by bus. The original plan was to walk for a while and meet monkeys along the way. My elders looked at the top of the mountain, and their feet were weak, so they came back by bus the same way. However, they feel that they are just seen by monkeys.
The myth and reality of the world of mortals, all myths and legends, are based on real life.
The top of the mountain is full of clouds, with a little blue sky in the middle, which is the reward of going up the mountain. When the photo was taken with the blue sky and white clouds as the background, the whole mood suddenly became clear. I traveled all the way to the top of the mountain and saw the scenery. I found that I was not so eager to meet Sun's disciples.
After entering the scenic spot, I was attracted by the dance performance of Tang Priest and fairies before going up the mountain. I just sat there and watched them dance. I seem to have forgotten the purpose of this trip to Guo Hua.
After watching the song and dance performances of Monkey Brother, Second Brother, Tang Priest and others, it's almost over, reminding the elders whether it's time to go up the mountain to see monkeys by car, and then rushing to the place where tickets are bought. Soon, a car is full and begins to go up the mountain.
The mountain road is eighteen bends, not an old driver. Even if I can drive, driving up the mountain for the first time is a very challenging technical job. Fortunately, there are special drivers driving in the scenic spot.
25 yuan went up and down the mountain alone. One-person round-trip ticket to 50 yuan, scenic spot ticket to 90 yuan, half price for the elderly as long as 45 yuan. Tickets are a little cheaper in the off-season every year.
Although the online travel guides don't give a very good evaluation of Huaguoshan Scenic Area, in fact, Huaguoshan Scenic Area is worthy of 90 yuan tickets, and the visitor service center is also pleasing to the eye. The design of public toilets is very comfortable, and the color matching and the placement of tables and chairs almost make people forget that they are waiting in the bathroom area.
When the elders entered the bathroom, they sat on the bench outside the bathroom with two golden hoops. The layout of the scene makes people feel no noise and irritability. I feel that no one in the bathroom will come out, and I don't feel embarrassed sitting there for half an hour.
Coming down from the top of the mountain, I was ready to leave the scenic spot and go back to the hotel. In the morning, I saw Tang Priest and his disciples come in. If so, I'll go back to see their song and dance performances at night, and I won't leave the gate of the scenic spot until people leave.
On the way back, I felt that driving was much faster than in the morning, although that was just my personal feeling. Actually, when I went into town, the traffic was a little congested.
After the trip to Huaguoshan, my mood and time seem to have become much easier. ?
Real journey
Eating in a strange city for the first time is very important. As for local cuisines in Lianyungang, "Haikou goes up the mountain in spring and autumn, eats and lives in Pingchuan in winter and summer" and "Shaguangzheng mutton soup in October", together with these local proverbs, are the simplest guides to find Lianyungang cuisines.
I ate a local roadside restaurant and a so-called high-rated restaurant, and tried brunches in two five-star hotels respectively. The probability of stepping on a mine recommended by the comments is very high. My favorite star-rated hotels and restaurants in commercial complexes are surprise gifts.
Generally speaking, the food varies from person to person, and it is also very enjoyable to eat your own dry food with milk tea on the roadside. Just like those goldfish in the release pond near the entrance of Huaguoshan Scenic Area, a little fish feed, many fish suddenly get together to call friends, and the fish are expected to join in the fun. Fat fish don't get hungry.
Because I took my elders to the hotel in Lianyungang Middle Road, I experienced different ways and environments. Travel is not only a kind of scenery, but also a state of mind. The same is true for eating. Pleasant is not necessarily delicious. Eating dry food in the mountains, snacks in the tourist service center, restaurants, roadside restaurants, buffets in different star-rated hotels, and restaurants in shopping centers are specially adapted to local conditions. Eating in a strange place is also like a taste tour.
If you live near the seaside, you always have to try seafood. In addition to the local seafood street, there are also many seafood restaurants near the core business district of Lianyun District. Seafood and big coffee are lively, and shellfish and small fresh meat are not as delicious as prawns.
According to chatting with the local old man who took his children for a walk in Ocean Park, the nearby seafood street is expensive, and locals generally don't go there to eat, unless there are occasional guests at home.
I went for a walk in seafood street. The seemingly ordinary sand fish is priced at more than 60 yuan a catty in many restaurants in Seafood Street, and it is 65,438 yuan +00 yuan a catty in the supermarket next to it. Some people also bought live fish, shrimp and crabs to be processed in the stalls in the central kitchen. You can see the fresh and delicious fish first, and don't worry about changing the dead fish and shrimp in the kitchen.
To travel to a place, it is best to compare the places where tourists eat and see which one is delicious.
Otherwise, you might as well go to one of the many restaurants in the shopping center or the restaurant in a five-star hotel for a big meal, which is better than spending money stupidly to make your stomach suffer.
In a strange city, the catering or buffet in a brand five-star hotel will never be too bad. This is a small discovery about eating food during the trip, that is, you can not only eat delicious food on the roadside, but also enjoy your own delicious time slowly in the magnificent restaurant. Even if you travel badly, you have to pay for your appetite.
Before leaving, I read several mainstream travel guides about Lianyungang and Huaguoshan on the Internet, and also read the official introduction of Lianyungang tourism, and made my own route guide.
202 1 This year, the trip to Lianyungang gave people the impression that apart from a short trip to Jingshan and Wuhan, they not only fulfilled the wishes of their elders, but also got to know the charm and scenery of the city during this first trip.
Lianyungang, a coastal city, the story of Guo Hua and Monkey Brother was written into tourism, which rounded up the Journey to the West complex in many people's childhood memories, and the tourism effect was very good. Their sincerity in the development of tourism resources can be truly felt from the aspects of bus service, street gap and details of scenic spots, although they began to see different comments on the Internet.
The online introduction of Lianyungang scenic spots is scattered. Mainly read the official travel guide in advance, and chose to lead grandma Liang Bao to travel. The route I arranged is based on the seaside and Huaguoshan, and it is compact and flexible all the way, not embarrassed by the scenic spots and time. This is a convenience that elders can't experience with group tours.
Many tourist routes such as Yuntai Mountain, Beach, Huaguoshan, Yanhe Lane, Lianyungang Old Street and Wan Yu Scenic Area have been planned. The time budget is 4 days and 3 nights, which is quite abundant. However, with the presence of elders, the scheme is more spacious and flexible. As long as the main Huaguo Mountain is the focus of the tour, the project can be completed first, and the rest can be decided according to the weather and manpower at that time.
BRT Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is a daily public transportation in Haizhou District and Lianyun District, which is very developed and dense in frequency. Before I arrived in Lianyungang, I thought it was a bus service similar to suburban bus. I visited Lianyungang and felt the developed and convenient public transportation. The service of the network car has also been experienced, and it is also very convenient.
Intercity train C3260 Zhenjiang Station-Lianyungang Station (neither Zhenjiang South Station nor Lianyungang East Station).
After arriving at Lianyungang Railway Station, follow the signs and walk about 100 meters to the BRT station not far away (but across the road). Take B 1K road, the fare is 2 yuan, take a bus to Lianyungang Nuclear Power Hotel in Lianshan District, and get off and you will see the hotel.
Traveling by bus in a strange city is the most intimate and convenient welfare for domestic tourism.
Going out in the late National Day in October, catching up with Lianyungang, the cold weather is not suitable for too much sightseeing on the island. After a tour and a bus ride back to the hotel, it seems that the accommodation on the island is not suitable for our appetite. B&B is a major and decent hotel, and we would rather choose the hotel in Lianyungang mainland.
Anyway, public transportation is also very convenient, so don't worry about going far by car. The most pleasant thing about domestic tourism is the developed public transportation. Perhaps there is no language barrier, so I feel that public transportation is convenient and I travel abroad.
Unless it is a large-scale tour in the city, you need to pay more attention to your homework when choosing public transportation. Watching navigation on the road can't do homework, which is time-consuming and laborious.
The book "Roaming in Port City" contains the introduction of different tourism resources in Lianyungang, which is more systematic and complete than the scattered introduction in the online raiders.
Because I wanted to see the nearby sea, I chose the place of nuclear power hotel as my foothold. The nearest beach is the nearby Haiyifang Park, which is an open green park with green land, beach and pontoon bridge extending all the way to the sea.
It's very close to Liandao by car. The nuclear power hotel is a three-star hotel, and the catering and accommodation are basically four-star hardware. In state-owned hotels, the front desk service is very regular, and the room service responds and handles very quickly, which exceeds expectations and is commendable.
I stayed in Lianyun District for 2 nights and moved to Jinling Yuntai Hotel in Haizhou District. After getting off the bus, I took a few steps on the way to the hotel. Grandma Erbao said that if you stay in a good hotel, you will change. "I am afraid that you will jump from the rice pot to the porridge pot."
I can understand some of her dialects at once, but I don't seem to understand this sentence. For me, seafood porridge is not necessarily worse than white rice.
Later, I understood what "rice pot jumps into porridge pot" means, and jokingly said, you will know later, whether it is rice pot or porridge pot;
Traveling abroad has its own characteristics. Different hotels, feel it, are also a kind of travel life experience, although the difference in space and facilities between the two hotels in Lianyungang is not obvious.
Actually, I probably know. First, I probably don't think it's troublesome to change hotels. After coming down from Huaguo Mountain, Laierbao's grandmother has been thinking about going home and thinking about her baby grandson.
However, it is hard to get a ticket for the train from Lianyungang to the provincial capital during the National Day, so she can change it if she doesn't want to. She had to choose to rest in Lianyungang. From Lianyun District to Haizhou District, I met Monkey Brother again, and the mentality of my elders seems to have become a tourism model again.
On the road, when some states cannot be changed, there is nothing wrong with paying attention to what you are doing and seeing.
Everyone's journey, like the Tang Priest's journey to learn from the scriptures, is upgraded on his own journey, seeking truth and being successful.
After 2020 and 20021year, the trip to Lianyungang is a footnote to the ordinary life in 20021year.
