Shaoxing Travel Notes | 0 Tickets 1-Day Tour, I Love Lu Xun’s Hometown

Shaoxing was called Yuezhou, Kuaiji and Shanyin in ancient times

Located in the north-central part of Zhejiang Province

Has a history of more than 2,500 years

Celebrities include Lu Xun, Cai Yuanpei, Wang Xizhi, etc.

My home is next to Shaoxing

It only takes half an hour to drive there.

Hangzhou has also opened a subway to Shaoxing.

A one-day trip to Shaoxing on the weekend is also a good choice

The one-day tour route is Shen Garden-Lu Xun’s Former Residence-Cangqianzhi Street

Both Shen Garden and Lu Xun’s Former Residence can be reserved in advance on "Shaoxing Cultural Tourism Group"

Tickets are free, but you need to bring your ID card to exchange for tickets in Lu Xun’s hometown

Shen Garden was formerly a private garden and was built in the Song Dynasty

The whole landscape uses water as the main body

Pavilions, terraces, pavilions, wind and lotuses in the courtyard

Leng Cui Pavilion, Guhe Pavilion and Qintai in the garden

They are all excellent viewing spots.

There are rockeries and dense bamboos around

Very high vegetation coverage

Summer resort

In addition to enjoying the scenery of the park

Shen Yuan also entrusts a poignant story

The poet Lu You and his beloved wife Tang Wan were originally a happy couple

Helplessly separated by Mother Lu

Both parties remarried

Reunited here after 11 years of separation

The Tang Dynasty entertained Lu with rice wine

After Lu drank, he squandered his hair on the wall of Shen Garden

Wrote the famous song "The Hairpin-headed Phoenix"

Red crisp hands, yellow wine, the city is full of spring scenery and willows on the palace walls. The east wind is evil and happiness is thin. Many years separated, my mind full of sorrow. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Spring is as old as ever, people are thin and empty, and the tears are red and raw. Peach blossoms fall, leisure pool pavilion. Although the mountain alliance is there, it is difficult to trust the brocade book. Mo, mo, mo.

After reading the poem, Tang also responded emotionally to the song "The Hairpin-headed Phoenix"

The world is thin, people are evil, and flowers tend to fall when the rain comes at dusk. At dawn, the wind has dried, and there are still traces of tears. I want to write down my thoughts, but I can't speak alone. Difficult, difficult, difficult! People are different, today is not yesterday, and the sick soul is always like a rope on a swing. The sound of the horn is cold, the night is dark, I am afraid of being asked, so I swallow my tears and pretend to be happy. Hide it, hide it, hide it!

The two poems describe the poet's pain and inability to control himself

The couple has passed away, but their love story is still being told

After leaving Shen Garden, the door is the Wu Peng Boat Pier

When you come to the water town, you might as well experience the unique water transportation in Jiangnan area.

In the past, this was a private boat owned by a wealthy family

The boat is small and can only accommodate up to 3 tourists

From the entrance of Shenyuan Garden to the entrance of Lu Xun's former residence, you can take a boat or walk

100 meters distance

I guess Lu Xun needs no introduction

Kong Yiji, Runtu, Baicao Garden and Sanwei Bookstore

The story in the textbook takes place in Shaoxing

At present, Lu Xun’s former residence, his ancestral residence and the Lu Xun Museum have been transformed into an attraction

Between the buildings is a commercial pedestrian street

Make Shaoxing's characteristic rice wine peripherals to perfection

Lu Xun's former residence faces south from the north and has six entrances and more than 80 houses.

Lian Baicao Garden covers an area of ​​4,000 square meters

The Zhou family gradually declined in the late Qing Dynasty

The tribe sold Baicaoyuan and Xintaimen to wealthy families

The whole house is full of grandeur

Every table and chair reveals the wealth and heritage of a wealthy family

It’s just that the layout feels a bit oppressive

It's not like the courtyard where you can have fun as much as you want

What you see when you look up from the desk are only four walls and a world.

I felt particularly kind when I saw Sanwei Bookstore.

Lu Xun spent 5 years of his youth here

In order not to be late again, Lu Xun even carved the word "morning" on the table to urge himself

Baicao Garden should be children’s favorite place, right?

It's actually a vegetable garden

There are also many plants planted now

Green vegetable beds, smooth stone well railings, tall acacia trees and purple mulberries

Cangqiao Straight Street is about a few kilometers away

The total length is 1.5 kilometers, which is composed of rivers, houses and neighborhoods.

Most of the buildings on both sides of the river are built in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China

There is a small river port in the backyard of every house to facilitate daily water use.

The whole street is relatively narrow

It's a bit commercialized, but it also seemed a bit deserted during the epidemic.

On the way, you can see Kong Yiji’s signature fennel beans.

I found a relatively famous Shaoxing restaurant.

I ordered Jiangnan specialty drunken shrimp and some river delicacies

Living by the river is a bit damp and poetic

There are also some snacks selling on the street, such as stinky tofu and fried dumplings.

Suitable for walking to digest food after meals
