    ——"Sister Chu, shall we go out to play together? I see that your sister Wan Ting has gone on a trip. You and Wang Ting have been there last time, but we haven't played together yet. Let's not go far away.  How about strolling around, I have never been to many places in Chengdu."

    Wang Qingqing began to jump after two days at home, mainly because she now needs cleaning and treatment once a day, so she can't go to far places.

    ——"Okay, then let's call Xiao Wang together."-

    "Then where shall we go?"

    Wang Qingqing asked Chu Lihua.

    Where to go to play, if even Wang Jingjing, who is from Sichuan, doesn't know, then she must go online to see what netizens have to say.

    As soon as Chu Lihua entered Chengdu City, where is fun, four words caught her eyes - Du Fu Thatched Cottage.

    Du Fu Thatched Cottage is located on the banks of the Huanhua River outside the west gate of Chengdu. It is the former residence of Du Fu, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty in China, when he lived in Chengdu.  Du Fu lived here for nearly four years and wrote more than 240 poems.  At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the poet Wei Zhuang found the ruins of the thatched cottage and rebuilt the thatched cottage to preserve it. It was repaired and expanded in the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.

    Today's thatched cottage covers an area of ??nearly 300 mu, and still completely retains the architectural pattern of the 13th year of Ming Hongzhi (1500 AD) and the 16th year of Qing Jiaqing (1811 AD) when it was repaired and expanded. The buildings are simple and elegant, and the gardens are quiet and beautiful.  It is a sacred place in the history of Chinese literature.  The Du Fu Memorial Hall was established in 1955 and changed its name to Chengdu Du Fu Thatched Cottage Museum in 1985. It is the largest, best-preserved, most famous and most distinctive site of Du Fu's whereabouts in China.

    ——"Qingqing, how about we go to Du Fu Thatched Cottage?"

    —— "Where is Du Fu Thatched Cottage interesting?"

    ——"I read the introduction, it seems to be the place where Du Fu lived before."

    —— "How much is the ticket?"

    ——"Sixty-one people."

    ——"I'll go, why is this place so expensive?"

    —— "Then how about we go to Wuhou Temple?"

    Chu Lihua gave Wang Qingqing another choice.

    ——"Forget it, let's go to Du Fu Thatched Cottage, since it is ranked first."

    ——"It's not ranked first, I was the first to see it. It's mainly because I have a little poetic feeling in my heart, which can be regarded as the preference of the pseudo-cultural youth."

    ? Chu Lihua explained to Wang Qingqing.

    ——"Pseudo-cultural youth, I think you are a cultural youth!"

    ? For Wang Qingqing's praise of her, Chu Lihua really appreciates it.  However, in order to be worthy of this praise, Chu Lihua has worked hard.

    That night, she looked up a lot of relevant information about Du Fu's Thatched Cottage. Fortunately, when they went together the next day, she showed off.

    However, although Chu Lihua planned to ask Yu Xiaowang to go with her, she still didn't go, because the 60 yuan ticket was a bit expensive for her.

    However, Sister Zhang went with her.

    Because Wan Ting and Bian Shi went on a trip, Dr. Wang returned to his hometown, and his wife fell ill.

    Ge is always the kind of boss who doesn't show up in the health care center for a long time.  Therefore, Sister Zhang No. 6 is inevitable, and Chu Lihua has no intention of exposing her.

    The next day, the three of them went there by bus.

    ? As a result, the site was too far away from the main entrance, and the three of them walked for a while, asking for directions. Perhaps because the weather was too hot, the three of them were tired when they first arrived at the entrance.

    Sit at the door and eat some fruit you brought to replenish your energy.

    This can be regarded as Chu Lihua's strange trip.

    When the three finally ate a lot of fruit while fighting, Chu Lihua drank more than half of a bottle of water, because she ate too much, she sat down for a while to eat.

    By the time I got up to buy tickets, it was almost four o'clock.  There are many people who have already finished playing.

    ——"It is said that this Du Fu Thatched Cottage is quite big. We may not be able to finish shopping at this hour, and the garden will be closed. Why don't we come back tomorrow."

    While the three of them were discussing buying tickets, someone next to them said so.

    ——"Ah, no, then why don't we come back tomorrow, so as to save time, people will lock us in."

    Wang Qingqing also quickly changed the plan.

    ——"Because I slipped out once today. If I sneak out again tomorrow, it will be a lot of work. I'll go in and have a look at what happens to me today. If I can't finish it, I won't finish it."

    Sister Zhang objected immediately.

    Finally, Chu Lihua made intermediate adjustments——"No, let's go in and play today. If we don't finish playing, we will come back when we have a chance."

    After twists and turns, I finally bought a ticket and went in.

    Entering the main entrance of Du Fu Thatched Cottage and crossing the stone bridge, there is a spacious hall with a lofty, bright and extraordinary momentum.  There is a long couplet with profound meaning hanging on the two walls: "At the same time in different generations, how many poets are there in such a country, how many poets are curled up like dragons and tigers? The husband also lives in a residence, and he has a long stay in the world. The moon is white and the wind is clear in a thatched cottage."

    Wang Qingqing took several selfies and co-shots with Zhang Jie here.

    Originally, Chu Lihua also took pictures with them at the beginning, but because his eyes were always not looking at the camera, the overall effect of the photos was poor, so in the end she did not take pictures with them and let them take pictures by themselves.

    Immediately afterwards, they came to the Hall of Poems.

    The Hall of Poems is the third building on the central axis, and it is also the main building.  The more than 1,400 poems left by Du Fu truly and vividly show the social life of the Tang Dynasty before and after the "Anshi Rebellion", reflecting the history of the Tang Dynasty from prosperity to decline.  Du Fu was revered as the "Sage of Poetry" by later generations, and his poems were called "History of Poetry", hence the name "History of Poetry".  In the middle of the hall is a statue of Du Fu portrayed by the famous Chinese sculptor Mr. Liu Kaiqu in a realistic way.

    Here, Chu Lihua took pictures of many poems in the Hall of Poems with her mobile phone.  Although she couldn't understand most of the words, it didn't affect her taking photos to prove that she was here for a visit.

    To be honest, the atmosphere in the cafeteria was really different, but unfortunately, Chu Lihua couldn't describe that feeling in words.

    Follow the crowd along the winding path, go straight ahead, and then come to the Gongbu Temple.

    This name is because Du Fu was once an employee of the Jiedu Staff Inspection Department, so it was called Du Gongbu, and the temple got its name from this.  The ancestral hall has three couplets in one house, bright pillars on the mountain, high terraces and stone steps, and flower-pane doors, solemn and solemn.  There are stone statues of Du Fu in the Ming and Qing dynasties in the temple, among which the bust of Du Fu carved in the 30th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1602) is the earliest stone statue left in the thatched cottage.  Huang Tingjian, a poet in the Song Dynasty, praised Du Fu in his works and took Du Fu's poems as his ancestor. Therefore, in the Qing Dynasty, Huang Tingjian and Lu You were enshrined on both sides of Du Fu's statue, so it was also called Sanxian Hall.  In the hall, there is a couplet of "Huangjiang Jiewu has been through the ages, and the two sages of Song and Song Dynasties have been promoted in different generations".  There is also a stone carving "Shaoling Thatched Cottage Map" in the Qianlong and Jiaqing years of the Qing Dynasty embedded in the wall.

    Of course, Chu Lihua didn't remember these things by herself, but an elderly grandpa next to her who seemed to have a more refined temperament said it.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
