My friends are going crazy asking me, thinking I went to the city that never sleeps

Every time the weekend comes, my heart, longing to escape the city's hustle and bustle, starts to stir. I always think about taking a walk around the nearby areas, away from the busyness and pressure of work, to feel that desirable atmosphere. This time, I planned a trip with friends and we went to the charming Qionglai. We stayed at the beautiful and serene Sheraton Lakeside Hotel, which added a touch of comfort to our journey. Our first stop was the famous Pingle Ancient Town. Unlike other commercialized ancient towns, Pingle Ancient Town has a rare and precious atmosphere , exuding a unique sense of life everywhere. In the ancient town, many Ming and Qing dynasty buildings are scattered in an orderly manner, the smooth bluestone roads bear the traces of time, and the mottled stone bridges seem to tell ancient stories. Walking through it, a feeling of tranquility quietly rises in the heart. This time in Pingle Ancient Town, we were very fortunate to encounter a lively dragon dance event. Many Hanfu performers paraded on the bridge, their clothes fluttering as if they had traveled from ancient times. There was also a passionate electronic music festival, where dynamic music collided with the ancient town's simplicity, creating a unique spark. The ancient town at night has a different charm, with soft lights casting on the old buildings, making it beautifully intoxicating. At this moment, the ancient town seems to transport people back in time, immersing them in a dreamlike atmosphere. 🍜 The food in Pingle Ancient Town is also not to be missed. The rich broth noodles, the fragrant Bobo chicken, and the tender river water tofu, every bite is unforgettable. In the streets and alleys of the ancient town, you can also taste various local snacks and specialties, satisfying your taste buds while feeling the unique charm of this ancient town. After leaving Pingle Ancient Town, we went to Qionglai City. This city seems like a paradise for food lovers. The aroma of various foods fills the streets and alleys, making one's mouth water. We wandered through the city's streets and alleys, searching for those hidden delicacies. From traditional Sichuan restaurants to street food stalls, surprises awaited us at every corner. This journey in Qionglai allowed us to experience different styles and charms. Here, there is both the simplicity and tranquility of Pingle Ancient Town and the hustle and bustle of the city. The food, scenery, and rich atmosphere here are deeply imprinted in our hearts. If you also long to escape the city's hustle and bustle and seek a moment of peace and beauty, then Qionglai is definitely a place not to be missed.
