Zhoushan returns without looking at the sea.

Zhoushan returns without looking at the sea.

A sailing tourist will talk about Japan, and it is difficult to find a letter. The road to the South China Sea is really not easy. I tried to imitate fairy mountain many years ago, but I kept putting it off. When I was young, I felt that I had plenty of time, but I never did it. This time, the trip that said go and go has reached a long-cherished wish. Can life be like this? Just think about it, it is better to do it.

From Hangzhou to Shaoxing, I stayed for a few days, just because of the lakes and mountains, birds and flowers. From Shaoxing to Ningbo by train, I thought Putuo was not far away. I didn't know until I read the map that there are still several round trips by land and water. Zhoushan Islands, really worthy of the name.

My route may not be the fastest route, but it is a journey with a broad vision. Take bus No.789 from Ningbo Railway Station, arrive at Phoenix Mountain Paradise, and take bus No.720 to Baifeng Wharf. It's getting late. I'm staying at a family hotel on the pier. Although the conditions are poor, I can finally relax my tired body. Thanks to Shaxian snacks, there are all kinds of snacks in the world. When you are full, take a semi-cold bath, hang wet clothes and turn on the air conditioner. The clothes washed these days are not dry, and the clothes are soaked with sweat. Since I set foot on the journey, wherever I went, the city washed the streets with rain and welcomed me. Everything was ready and I fell asleep in a minute. Get up at 4: 30 the next morning to wash. Because I was afraid of seasickness, I tried to reduce the time by boat, so I chose to take the earliest ferry at 5: 40 to Yadanshan Pier. The sea is foggy in the morning, and the sun can't be seen on cloudy days. However, one island after another, large and small, does not make people feel empty. I have seen the sea in Bohai Bay and the sea in Guangxi, both of which are endless blue. Zhoushan Archipelago, like a dancer in the sea, flutters with veils, still hiding half her face from us behind her guitar. This makes me want to lift the veil and see the beauty.

After 50 minutes of sailing, I didn't feel too dizzy, and my heart was moistened by the wet sea breeze blowing on the railing. Besides a dozen passengers, there are more than twenty motor vehicles on the ferry, so it runs smoothly. When the high baffle on the ship was put down, the passengers went ashore and left in a hurry. I guess, most of them work in Ya Dan, and repeat the familiar itinerary every day. There are also passengers like me, full of expectations. When I walked out of the dock, it was already the bus terminal. I got on the No.27 bus and thought it was time to go to shenjiamen Pier. The driver speaks Zhoushan dialect, which I can't understand. He suggested that I go to Zhujiajian Island Island Pier, which is near Putuo. So, I experienced a sleepy hour and a half on the 27 th road. On the road at six or seven o'clock, I saw many empty container trucks, only the front of the car and no containers. The road conditions are not very good, and the driver is still very experienced. Vaguely see all kinds of private villas among the green trees. It suddenly occurred to me that a girl married in rural Zhejiang, and her mother was very worried, fearing that her daughter would be wronged. When the daughter took a photo of her villa and sent it to her mother, she saw it, smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.

This is the richness of Zhejiang.

Arrive at Ya Dan Mountain Pier, just in time to catch the speedboat to Putuo, and set off at once. Just in time. I feel that the travel time in Ningbo is well arranged. 15 minutes, the speedboat arrived at Putuoshan pier on time. It is a wise choice to go to Putuo Mountain directly by speedboat instead of from Baifeng, because it is a little bumpy and dizzy. Although it takes only one and a half hours to get to the speedboat directly, I didn't take it. Besides avoiding seasickness, I also had the opportunity to enjoy the scenery of Ningbo's cities and countryside. I realized that Ningbo has a vast territory. It's not yet nine o'clock at this time. It's cool in summer, and it's just suitable for playing without rain or sun exposure. The speedboat crossed the sea like a shuttle and turned several islands. Far away, Guanyin in Nanhai stands on the top of Putuo Mountain, solemn and kind. She seems to be watching people return from the sea and praying for their safety.

There are inscriptions on the left side of the main road, all of which are respectful words of famous monks who have come to Putuo in past dynasties. I like calligraphy, so I stopped to take pictures one by one for appreciation or study. Carelessly, half an hour passed quickly. So I immediately decided to lock in the main quota in a limited time. I don't like to use the word "scenic spot". In my opinion, liking is scenery, as long as it looks good, it is scenery. The first stop is of course the Guanyin statue in the South China Sea. On the speedboat, I looked at the Nanhai Guanyin on the top of the mountain, so gentle and kind. I donated a fragrant flower coupon and walked up the mountain. The bluestone pavement, bluestone railing and the stigma of the railing are carved with lotus flowers. At the end of the stigma stood two beautiful elephants. Climbing the steps again, cigarettes are wrapped around our eyes, and pilgrims worship Guanyin in the South China Sea, which has entered the clouds above the high platform. I lit three sticks of incense, bowed my head and prayed, and then worshipped everywhere. On the ground floor, there is an open platform where people take photos as a souvenir. There are many people, but it's not noisy. I looked up and looked at the Buddha statue carefully. Guanyin bodhisattva looked down at me with a kind and dignified face, which made me feel ashamed. I subconsciously moved to the left, but the Buddha's eyes still followed me. I folded my hands and looked up at the holy one. Tears of excitement welled up from the corner of my eyes, which I couldn't control. This was an accident when I arrived in Putuo. I don't know why I burst into tears myself.

On the third floor, you will come to the throne of Guanyin lotus, turn to the back and go down to the backyard. The wall in the backyard is embossed with Buddhist stories. The two sides described the historical events of Tang Sanzang's journey to the west and Jian Zhen's monk's mission to the east. The relief is exquisite and lifelike. Believers put coins on incense burners to pray for peace.

Walking through a hundred paces of sand along the seaside, I refused to go to the seaside in Kannonji. The seawater in the tidal cave thumped, which made people seem to see the huge waves that Guanyin refused to go eastward.

Turn around and go to Zizhulin. Although the bamboo forest is not very vast, there are a few birds singing in the quiet, the purple bamboo pole is different, and the heavy sense of history is attached to the nobles. I remember my father once played a melancholy tune with a long flute.

Unconsciously stepping into Fusaiji is also called refusing to go to Kannonji. People bowed down to Guanyin for the last time here. Some people want something, some people are full of awe, and some people meditate and worship Buddha. Cigarettes curled into the clouds and floated to Guanyin in the South China Sea above the lotus. Surely people will get inner relief. The big lotus pond outside the temple gate is covered with large lotus leaves, which is indeed "infinite green lotus leaves" Strangely, there is only no lotus red.

I also went to several other artificial modern scenic spots, and I didn't feel anything. If only there were no obvious signs of commercialization on this sacred Mount Putuo. I saw fireworks worshipping Guanyin, Zen everywhere, squirrels on branches and birds singing in bamboo forests.

With the regret of not booking a hotel on the island, the speedboat was reluctant to give up and sat in shenjiamen this time. Do not go back. Shenjiamen is a fishing port. There are 60 similar seafood restaurants on the roadside of the port. I guess they are unified in layout and management. They are very good, modern and clean, and the other side should be near the sea, overlooking the distance of the sea. Take bus no.29 and drive all the way along the harbour. Fishing boats, large and small, stopped in the harbor, and several yachts occasionally flashed by. On the other side of the road, shops along the street are full of passengers, and business is booming. Shenjiamen should be a good place to eat seafood in Ningbo. Of course, there are seafood stalls on Mount Putuo. Is it expensive? Needless to say, it's not expensive.

As an elegant and intellectual person, I have no conflict with eating seafood. I just came and went in a hurry and couldn't enjoy it.

When I went back, I thought about the way I wanted to come, but I still stopped. When I smelled the thick smell of kelp, I found that the bus ran to another port, got off midway, took another bus back to Yadanshan Wharf, and then took the last ferry back to Baifeng.

From four o'clock in the morning to nine o'clock in the evening, seventeen hours, non-stop. That's it. There are regrets. If you check out with your luggage, you can stop at any time so that you can enjoy yourself. In the humble hotel in Baifeng, I made a decision to do it again. It's not my style to look around. Folk custom deep tour is my favorite. At least find the local famous houses and elegant houses, special food, and understand the local history, humanities and modern development.

The trip to Mount Putuo showed me the prosperity and culture of Hangzhou, the history and humanities of Shaoxing and the prosperity and development of Ningbo. Going out and seeing famous mountains and rivers will definitely cleanse the soul, go deep into a city and feel humanistic care and vigorous strength. When you ask for directions, you will always be guided by a smile; When it rains, the electric car automatically slows down for fear of splashing on passers-by; When you can't buy a big barrel of mineral water, I don't know how many people have provided clues to help you; In the fruit shop, I met active magic; People in the tourist area are not angry because I don't take his car, but ride five meters away, remember which bus I should take, lean forward and tell me how to get there in dialect; The owner of the snack bar gave away his saved rice for free ... every little thing touched me.

Read thousands of books and take Wan Li Road. For what? Reading is for growth, and traveling is not just for recording footsteps. Besides, when you meet people and things on the way to Wan Li, you will feel the fate of life and draw nutrients from your heart. After opening and closing, people's hearts will continue to grow stronger. No longer worry about small things, no longer afraid of difficulties. People's hearts will be better because it is close to Zhu Zhechi. The humanistic quality of a city is an open and closed cycle. They inherited the excellent traditions of their ancestors, kept the customs handed down from generation to generation, were simple and natural, and were kind to others. Falling in love with a city is not only its tall buildings and beautiful scenery, but also its connotation.

Walking in the cloth, you walk into a city, fall in love with a city and feel the depth of a city.
