The three-hundred-year-old Shanghai and Zhejiang scenic spots are illuminated, with a bridge spanning the two provinces

I wonder if you have ever heard of 3A-level scenic villages? This means that villages that meet certain standards of tourism service quality and environmental quality. When you are in them, 3A-level scenic villages not only have beautiful scenery, rich cultural heritage, a large number of folk customs and delicacies, but also have the ability to receive tourism. With the in-depth tourism over the years, With the rise of self-driving tours, 3A-level scenic villages have gradually become the mainstream, attracting a large number of tourists to visit! So the question is, where should I go if I want to go to a unique 3A-level scenic village? It is recommended that everyone visit the scenic spots in Shanghai and Zhejiang with a history of more than 300 years. A bridge spans two provinces, making it a natural and leisurely place! What I want to talk about is Jiaxing Mingyue Shantang Scenic Area, also known as Shantang Village, a 3A-level scenic village! Looking through history, we can find that in the second year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1645), Shantang Village had a military institution named "Shantang" along the river, and gradually formed a market. It has a history of more than 300 years. In the scenic area, a Shantang Bridge spans the Shantang River, connecting Jinshan in Shanghai and Pinghu in Zhejiang. It is known as "one bridge, two mountains and ponds". The north side of the river belongs to Beishantang Village in Shanghai, and the south side of the river belongs to Nanshantang Village in Zhejiang Province. The north and south mountain ponds are combined into one, collectively called "Mingyue Shantang"! Moreover, there is another saying about the name of "Mingyue Shantang", that is, "Mingyue" has two "moons", which represent the south and north mountain ponds, forming the word "friend". The two mountain ponds are built and shared together. This is also It is consistent with the spirit of integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta. In particular, this Shantang Bridge is a three-span pier-type beam bridge. It was first built in the Qing Dynasty and was renovated in 1954 by a joint venture between Jinshan and Pinghu. It is made of granite, runs north-south, and crosses the Xishantang River. The total length is 23.70 meters, and the bridge deck is made of 12 long stones. The bridge is the boundary bridge between Jinshan in Shanghai and Pinghu in Zhejiang. It is also an important witness to the harmony, integration and commercial exchanges between the people of the two places for hundreds of years. It is now a cultural relic protection unit in Jinshan District. To officially start the tour, you can follow the route of Shantang Bridge - Shantang Old Street - Congpu Cultural Garden. Among them, Shantang Old Street is a lively market with a residential style of "Guanyin Pocket with pink walls and black tiles" and a dazzling array of teahouses, small shops, vegetable shops, butcher shops, etc. Now we are gradually adding cultural and creative categories, food categories, farmhouses, B&Bs, study camps and other businesses. I believe that in the near future, this place will become more and more amazing! Congpu Cultural Garden was restored from the site of the century-old original "Shantang Primary School". After careful design and transformation, children can learn about the connotation of traditional Chinese culture and folk crafts. After wandering around, you can also learn about Pinghu Bozishu, formerly known as "Shuo Cao Cao", which is a rap art performed in Pinghu dialect. It originated during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty and was formed in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. It integrates speaking, singing and performance. In 2008, it was included in the national intangible cultural heritage list. After communicating with fellow tourists, everyone felt that the Mingyue Shantang Scenic Area is a natural and leisurely place. Clear water surrounds the mountain pond, the wind is clear and the moon is bright, and the scenery is infinite. It is as if you are in a beautiful landscape painting. Walking around, everything is full of paintings, the melodious sound of the market echoes in my ears, and my eyes are filled with the spectacular scenery of fireworks and people, not rushed, not noisy, just right! Those who like to nostalgic can also look for old-style life sculptures in the old streets, especially the half-acre square pond, which makes people think about the past!
