Lu town

Lu town

Lu Town, place name, Keqiao District, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province. In the history of Shaoxing, there is no Lu town. Lu town is originated from Lu Xun's famous novel Kong Yiji. It is mentioned that "the pattern of hotels in Lu town is different from that in other places."

Lu Xun also mentioned it in social drama, disturbance, tomorrow and blessing.

In fact, there is no Lu town in Shaoxing's history. This is an artistic summary of Lu Xun's childhood memories of Dongpu, Fanjiang, Dongguan, huangfuzhuang, anqiaotou and other water towns. It is just a written water town in the novel. But this small town has long existed in Lu Xun's heart, and through his novels, it has survived in the hearts of millions of readers.

Real scenic spot

Scenic spots

As soon as you enter the gate, you will see pink walls, dark tiles, small bridges and flowing water. The houses and shops along the river are well arranged. It just feels that this "ancient town" is a little new. Only when you walk on the stone road and see the soldiers in Qing Dynasty clothes, it seems that you are in another Dynasty.

Lu Zhen is very big. Along the winding river, most of the buildings mentioned in Lu Xun's works. Probably because of the new opening of Luzhen, many "folk houses" are still uninhabited and many shops are still uninhabited, but there are more shops on the main street. Tribute shop, tin foil shop, oil candle shop, tea lacquer shop, bank, pawnshop There are lots of shops in modern cities, such as Ah Q, Xianglinsao, fake foreign devils, Master Lu Si Lu Xun's characters appear in the street one by one. "Mom, my son beat me." Ah Q, with long braids and a black felt hat, sways his long cigarette pole and looks all kinds of strange looks. He looks around looking for the little nun. "I only know that snow is a wild animal. When there is no food in the mountains, he will come to the village. I don't know that spring will come." The ragged "Xianglin sister-in-law" leaned on a stick and murmured to herself: "I only know that the wolves in the East Mountain eat people, but I didn't expect that the wolves in the west mountain also eat people..." Kong Yiji "studied" the four ways of writing the word "fennel" at the counter of the restaurant The scenes of Lu Xun's novels are not the drama performed on the stage, but the "live drama" interspersed with the tourists of "Lu town". Tourists often play their own roles to amuse them. Ah Q, in particular, has all kinds of strange looks. Maybe he didn't see the "little nun", so he "teased" Sister Xianglin with a begging basket to kiss her, which attracted tourists to take out their cameras to shoot. When tourists are young, Master Lu Si wanders around with a water pipe box. Ah Q rests on the card door while Sister Xianglin drinks tea at the shopkeeper's counter. It's really interesting.

In the town, there are also groups of exaggerated sculptures. For example: Ah Q's revolution, ah q's being beaten, ah q's teasing little nuns, robbing relatives It makes people laugh, but also makes people see the character and destiny of those characters in Lu Xun's works.

In Luzhen, groups of exaggerated group sculptures are quite eye-catching, and the bronze statues of dozens of characters tell the stories in Lu Xun's novels. There are bridges to depend on, water to play, stones to taste, wine to drink, trees to shade, play to listen to, art to be seen, history to be seen, modern to be seen, stories to be told and amusement to be enjoyed This is Lu town.

This is just a little bit of Lu town. However, this brand-new town gives us a glimpse of Shaoxing.

Features of scenic spots

In recent years, there are many theme parks built around the country with the connotation of history and culture, but these parks are either built for film and television, or only virtual a certain historical and cultural environment in a certain place. On the other hand, Lu town on the side of Jianhu Lake is different. It is built in the place where the story takes place. It not only reproduces the local historical customs, but also closely connects with the well-known characters in the novel. Therefore, walking into Luzhen is like walking into history and Lu Xun's novels, which gives people a feeling of illusion and reality, and a feeling of experiencing history with heart.

geographical position

Lu town is located on the left side of Keyan scenic spot in Shaoxing County, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province. It is a theme park in Keyan scenic area, covering an area of 150 mu with a construction area of more than 30000 square meters.

Lu Zhen's "citizen"

Ah Q: the most humble figure in Shaoxing rural areas has become a typical character with the characteristics of the times, class and personality in Lu Xun's works. In Mao Zedong's words, "Lu Xun in this novel is mainly about a backward and unconsciousness farmer."

Mrs. Xianglin: Mrs. Xianglin is a typical working woman in old China. She is hardworking, kind-hearted, simple and indomitable. But in the old society, where feudal ethics and feudal thoughts dominated, she was trampled, persecuted, devastated and even swallowed up by the old society. She was persecuted by feudal ethics. She struggled and resisted constantly, but finally she was crushed by the society.

Kong Yiji: as a declining scholar, Kong Yiji seems to be no good at anything. He failed in the exam and could not make a living, so he had to be reduced to the bottom of the society. He was the victim of a cannibal society.

Luzhen cuisine

Shaoxing old wine

Shaoxing old wine is brewed with fine white glutinous rice as the main raw material and high-quality yellow wheat as starter. The unique Jianhu water is the key to form the characteristics of Shaoxing old wine. Due to its unique geology, landform and soil structure, Jianhu river system has formed a rare excellent water quality suitable for brewing rice wine at home and abroad. The scientific research units concerned have made a long-term investigation and Study on Jianhu Lake, and think that Jianhu river system has a good natural environment. The source of Jianhu Lake comes from the northern foot of Kuaiji mountain, where there are luxuriant forests and bamboos, good vegetation, low salinity of water, transparent and clear water color, containing a variety of trace minerals, which is very conducive to wine making. At the same time, Jianhu Lake has abundant water resources, and the water can be changed every seven days on average. Such a superior natural environment is extremely rare in China's freshwater lakes. On the other hand, the mud coal seam along and at the bottom of Jianhu Lake has the function of adsorption and transformation of metal ions, adsorption and filtration of harmful substances in the lake water, which makes Jianhu Lake water keep a high clean state all year round.

Shaoxing old wine has a great reputation, and was rated as one of the top ten famous products in the Qing Dynasty.

At the same time, yuan red wine and Shanjiu liquor were awarded the title of "national quality liquor", and the Ministry of light industry awarded the "quality product certificate". In 1980, Xiangxue liquor also won the "quality product certificate" issued by the provincial government. In 1983, Jiafan and Yuanhong won the gold cup award in the liquor quality competition of the Ministry of light industry, Shanniang won the silver cup award, and Xiangxue won the title of the Ministry of excellence.
