Meet the salt grains of time at the thousand-year-old salt fields

🌅 Meet the salt grains of time at the thousand-year-old salt fields Today, I want to take you to a place hidden deep in time - the thousand-year-old salt fields, where you can feel the unique charm of the years. 🌊 When I stepped into this ancient salt field, the sea breeze with a faint salty smell came to me, as if telling a thousand-year-old story. In front of me are large, neatly arranged stone troughs, which are witnesses of time, and each texture is engraved with the wisdom and diligence of the ancestors. ☀️ The sunlight shines on the stone troughs, and the shallow seawater glistens in the sunlight. After a long period of sun exposure and evaporation, the seawater gradually precipitates white salt grains, as if a layer of fine silver frost has been laid on the stone troughs. Looking closely, these salt grains are crystal clear and of various shapes, and they are the crystallization of nature and human wisdom. Here, salt is not just a seasoning, but also a cultural heritage. The salt-making techniques of the ancient salt fields have been passed down from generation to generation, and the most primitive methods are still preserved today. The salt workers skillfully operate, from introducing seawater into the troughs to drying and collecting salt, each step is full of ritual. Their figures shuttle between the salt fields and the sun, forming a simple and moving picture. Walking between the salt fields, I felt a sense of tranquility away from the hustle and bustle. Under my feet is the land that has been through thousands of years, above my head is the vast blue sky, and in front of me is the beautiful scenery of the salt fields and the sea blending together. Here, time seems to slow down, and everything becomes pure and beautiful. In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun dyes the entire salt field orange-red, and the salt grains also shine with golden light. At this time, the ancient salt fields are as beautiful as a dream, making people intoxicated and unwilling to wake up. If you also want to explore those corners forgotten by time and feel the charm of ancient culture, then you must not miss the thousand-year-old salt fields. Believe me, this place will bring you an unforgettable travel experience!
