Old street style

"Donglin is a nest, you can climb the slope when you go out," is a local doggerel, which vividly reflects the topography here. As the mountains are surrounded by water, the streets of Donglin township can only stand on the steep hillside. From a distance, rows of stilted buildings stand on the riverside of the state. They are surrounded by fog, and the mountains and rivers depend on each other. The cooking, smoking, and people's language are just right embellishment among them. They give birth to a unique water flavor, giving people a sense of paradise. in the narrow and simple old streets, you can see some old wooden houses and stone roads everywhere. The walls and eaves are mottled and full of vicissitudes by the wind and rain. The wind blows through the narrow and long old alleys, just like the clear or fuzzy back of the predecessors, coming and going carelessly. The manual shavers in the alley and the old people who are leisurely drinking morning wine seem to be witnessing the simple folk customs here for centuries. A row of moss covered stone stairs lead from the quiet old street to the colorful outside world, connecting the ancient history with the flashy today. There are several humble and simple Baijiu Workshop on the streets and lanes, still following the ancient craft of artificial brewing. When the beautiful country scene is clear and sweet, the natural water is integrated with the mountains and the valley. It is sublimated into a mellow and meaningful wine. The pure and famous Donglin Baijiu lingers and lingers for a long time. Not only are the people who are intoxicated with their lives leisurely, but they are also drunk with the scattered time between the green hills and the green waters. In fact, the quiet old street is also extremely prosperous on the spot, because of its narrow and crowded, and the noise of people rising like a tide. After so many years, the heart of the old street is always quiet. Although the old look is changing little by little, no one can take away the precious part of it.

Site of Shigu County

Zengshan village, opposite to Donglin Town, is located at the foot of Chaqi mountain. The river meanders from the northeast, around the front of the village, and then to the northwest. The whole village is surrounded by water on three sides, just like an abrupt peninsula. In this place surrounded by water on three sides and easy to defend but difficult to attack, there is an ancient county site. It took more than 650 years from the establishment of the county in the early Song Dynasty to the withdrawal and merger in the seventh year of Xining in the Song Dynasty. It is one of the places with the longest history of establishing a county in Xuanhan county. According to historical records, in 420 ad, the Eastern Jin Dynasty perished, and the Southern Dynasties, song, Qi and Liang, which ruled the Yangtze River Valley, led Bashu in turn. In the early Song Dynasty (420-439), Baqu county was established, which was under the jurisdiction of Xuanhan, Shixing, Baqu, Dongguan, Shi'an, Xiapu and Jinxing, four of which were in Xuanhan county. In 536, Shian county was changed to shigu County, and Wanrong county was set up here to govern and lead the county. Later, shigu county also experienced Western Wei, Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties, pre Shu, post Shu, song and other dynasties. The history of Shigu County, which is widely spread by local people, is roughly consistent with the historical records. It's a coincidence. In the early 1930s, the Red Army and the Kuomintang troops fought a fierce "zengshan sniping war" here, leaving many precious red relics, which added to the history here. The 650 year long history of the founding of the county, the 1400 year old civilization, the vicissitudes of life, the rise and fall of evolution, the number of prosperous prospects, the number of dignitaries behind, all along with the surging water of the Zhouhe River, leaving only some indistinct traces, which need to be further demonstrated, investigated, utilized and developed.

The charm of Qianzhou Lake

Qianzhou lake is an artificial lake in the reservoir area formed in Zhouhe River after the completion of Luojiang hydropower station in Tongchuan District. When you go out of Donglin town and take a boat at the ancient water wharf, the lines of stilted buildings built along the mountains gradually fade away when a poetic waterline is drawn at the stern of the boat. What's coming is a magnificent scene of green mountains, green waves and birds flying in the sky. In the mountains, Qianzhou Lake brings peace and beauty with its unique purity and holiness. From Donglin township to Yanglie Township, after passing the narrow "goose neck", the lake suddenly opens up. Standing in the bow of the boat, you can see the smoke in the mountains and listen to the murmur of water. In front of the people, Qianzhou Lake enjoys a refreshing and pleasant mood. Her soft voice and breath make people forget to return. the green bamboos all over the mountains rise and fall with the wind of the lake, which is magnificent. The dense vegetation and clear lake water build a beautiful home for white crane, wild duck and unknown waterbirds. When the beautiful birds fly by the lake from time to time, the freedom and happiness fully show the harmonious side of nature. In this era of hustle and bustle and ostentation, Qianzhou lake, which has not suffered any pollution, is holy, real, original, and has not been decorated by human beings. If you go boating in Qianzhou lake one day, you will find that her purity will also become a kind of perseverance of the soul.
