Also in southern Anhui, the ancient city of Yixian is far less famous than the ancient city of Huizhou. Perhaps it is for this reason that you can’t feel the strong commercial atmosphere when you come here. A Tongji Bridge connects the ancient city of Yixian County with the two banks of Yichuan. This kind of winding and winding across the small bridge across the creek makes people feel a kind of intimacy as a wanderer returning to their hometown.

In the early morning, there were not many people in the ancient city. The Huizhou buildings with white walls and black tiles extended along the stone road to the other side of the city. Locals live and live in it leisurely. Tourists come and go. People who speak various local dialects, even foreigners with yellow hair and blue eyes, are nothing but a flowing landscape for them.

The buildings on the street are mostly commercial shops on the first floor, and people on the second floor. The exquisite flower windows and gate houses unique to southern Anhui are still vividly reflected even in a very simple and simple snack shop.

The ancient city of Yixian County was built in the Song Dynasty, and many of the buildings are very old. However, these houses and dwellings are not as hyped and built as other ancient cities across the country, but quietly guarding their duties as buildings, or building the Xinhua Bookstore. Either act as a photo studio, or become a snack shop, fully integrated with people’s lives.

A small stream lingers in and around the city. The entire ancient city is not large. Small towns, small towns, small villages, small streets, and small rivers give people the feeling of Xiaojiabiyu. Even people’s voices seem to have become smaller, as if they are afraid of being disturbed. It’s quiet.

Any building has its own history and charm, and the traces of the years are attached to it. This kind of old-style building can easily bring people to the 70s and 80s.

With clear signs and specially planted flowers and trees, in order to build the ancient city and let more people understand its history, people also took great pains. Fortunately, this general renovation did not deliberately force it, everything is repaired as old, not sensational, just to continue the old time in the ancient city of Yixian without leaving a trace.

According to legend, the “Xue Gongjing” located in the center of the ancient city was built by Xue Ji, the magistrate of Yixian County in the Tang Dynasty. Xue Ji was concerned about the suffering of the people during his tenure. Social ethics.

The door of this old-fashioned photo studio has long disappeared in the big city. It is especially nostalgic. I always feel that when I push the door and enter, I will go through a period of time, returning to the red face, red lips, and nervousness. Staring at the camera and taking pictures of his childhood.

Although the whole is small, it is a city worth savoring. Occasionally I find a remote alley, narrow and uneven, the buildings on both sides seem to be older, gray and yellow, walking on the road, I always feel that there will be a lilac umbrella holding an oil paper umbrella in front of me. someone’s girl.

The three sculptures in Huizhou are not only famous, but they are really infiltrating people’s daily life. Where there are buildings, there are three sculptures. Among them, wood carvings are especially common. They are exquisitely carved with deep brown wood. A door seems to be isolated. Out of a mysterious world. There is no need to deliberately look for it, it may be just the doors and windows of an ordinary family, which can make people stop and marvel.

Most people who like the ancient city yearn for a kind of peace of mind. If this is the case, if they are on the way, they have heard enough of the life and people, they may wish to come to the ancient city of Yixian to rest and appreciate the simplicity and simplicity. Simple and quiet down to earth. (You are welcome to like and leave a message in the comment area. For more exciting content, stay tuned / Failed Jinshi)
