Langzhong Ancient City Travelogue

Langzhong Ancient City, a historic and cultural city with a long history, carries a thousand years of stories. Here, ancient buildings are scattered in an orderly fashion, stone-paved roads wind and twist, and the Jialing River flows gently. Stepping into this ancient city is like traveling through an ancient scroll. In the early morning, the sunlight sprinkles on the ancient streets, awakening the sleeping city. I stroll along the stone-paved road, with quaint shops on both sides, red lanterns hanging at the doors, and signs with words like 'Vinegar' and 'Zhang Fei Beef'. Langzhong vinegar, with its rich and sour taste, is one of the city's specialties. I enter a vinegar workshop, and the aroma of vinegar intoxicates me. The owner enthusiastically introduces the characteristics and brewing techniques of various vinegars, and I can't help but admire the exquisite traditional craftsmanship. Continuing forward, I arrive at the Han Huanhou Temple, built to commemorate Zhang Fei, a famous general of the Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period. The architecture inside the temple is solemn and dignified, with a heavy atmosphere. Gazing at the statue of Zhang Fei, it's as if I can see his valiant and heroic demeanor from the past. In the adjacent exhibition hall, Zhang Fei's life and historical contributions are displayed, giving me a deeper understanding of this legendary figure. After leaving the Han Huanhou Temple, I come to the banks of the Jialing River. The river flows leisurely, with boats shuttling on the water. The distant mountains undulate, and the green trees provide shade, forming a beautiful landscape painting. I board a pleasure boat, enjoying the scenery on both sides of the river and the pleasant feeling of the breeze on my face. The clear water of the Jialing River allows me to see the bottom, and the fish play in the water, which is refreshing. As night falls, the ancient city is brilliantly lit. Lanterns on both sides of the ancient street light up, illuminating the entire street. I visit an inn to taste the local specialties, and the deliciousness of Zhang Fei beef is memorable. After dinner, I sit on the balcony of the inn, watching the night view of the ancient city, immersed in the tranquil atmosphere. Langzhong Ancient City, like a dazzling pearl, is nestled on the banks of the Jialing River. It has both a long history and culture, as well as beautiful natural scenery. It made me feel the blend of ancient and modern, and it left a deep impression on me. When bidding farewell to Langzhong Ancient City, I carry with me full memories, looking forward to the next encounter.
