There is actually no difference between getting off at Qingzhou Station or Qingzhou North Station. What is different is the mood when you enter the city.
There are two stations on the high-speed rail. Most people advise you to go to Qingzhou North Station, which is a station on the Jinan-Qingdao high-speed rail line. The trains are very dense. It only takes twenty minutes to take a taxi from there. In the process, you can see the shadows of the trees at the base of the city wall, swaying back. However, I just want to mention the old "Qingzhou City Station", which is the station of the general speed line, the kind of station where green cars will stop with a clang. Arriving at this station at night, it takes half an hour to get into the city after exiting the station. It is only a dozen yuan cheaper, but it seems like I have bought a ticket to the 1990s.
Where to live? Stay away from Main Street.
Go outside Fucaimen, east of Ouyuan Street, in the area of Taihua City. It takes ten minutes to walk into the city. Housing prices here are stable and it is really quiet in the middle of the night. How quiet is it? You could hear the old man next door coughing, then turning over, and then snoring. Courtyard rooms in the ancient city are ridiculously expensive on weekends. When the lights come on, the queue under the city gate is as long as a greedy snake.
Is Longsheng Pastry really worth the queue?
Don't go with others to visit those famous shops at noon. By twelve o'clock, people were so packed together that the numbers were gone. So we set up our horses and waited until dark—actually there was no need to do this.
Looking for an affordable Shandong cuisine restaurant, the per capita consumption is between 40 and 60, and you need to choose half portion when ordering. The tofu box is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and you will have a warm smell after biting into it. The fillings of the mutton dumplings are solid, so don’t let your hands tremble when dipping them in vinegar.
I plan to buy the Longsheng pastry for afternoon tea, which contains honey sandao and inch dates. It tastes sweet, but not so sweet that it is annoying. It is on the list of intangible cultural heritage in the province. I cut two pieces and eat them separately. It is just enough to replenish energy. Someone once said that "Qingzhou can make a person gain five pounds". This is no joke. The portion is really generous and the price is extremely generous.
I want to go to Ouyuan.
The ticket price is 18 yuan. There is a little man in the Jiangbei Classical Garden. The yard is not large and the sound of running water is small. The sense of peace when standing on the bridge is like someone whispering in the ear that it is okay. The Ouyang Xiu Memorial Hall and the Li Cheng Memorial Hall each cost 9 yuan. They are full of humanistic atmosphere and it is convenient to tell stories with children. This person used to write and paint here. Even without a mobile phone, his life is safe and smooth.
The row of smiles in the museum silenced people
Qingzhou Museum, you have to stay alone for half a day.
There are more than 400 Buddha statues in the Longxing Temple from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Northern Song Dynasty. These Buddha statues are all painted with gold. Among them, the row of thinking Bodhisattvas has curved mouth corners and half-closed eyes. This is the so-called "Qingzhou Smile". Standing there, you have to breathe as lightly as possible. As for the number, some sources record it as more than 400 statues, and some records as more than 600 statues. In short, there are so many that you will feel that time is not important.
The official mini program can reserve tickets at 7 a.m. and is divided into time slots. Ignore scalpers.
How high is the character "Shou" on Yunmen Mountain?
Get up early the next day and climb Yunmen Mountain.
It was around five o'clock when we arrived at the door. The wind was quite refreshing and the sky was just breaking out. The area with the word "Shou" in Shanyin is 7.5 meters high and 3.7 meters wide. The "inch" part alone is 2.3 meters long. There is a folk legend that "no one is taller". When you look up, your neck will feel sore, but your heart will be convinced. It was carved during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, almost five hundred years ago.
Standing in the Wangshou Pavilion, I suddenly understood why the local elders love to come here to "enjoy longevity".
Don't rush down the mountain, walk slowly.
Are Yangtian Mountain and Jiulong Valley worth it?
With plenty of time, Yangtian Mountain can carry out more wild and interesting activities. Jiulongyu is also a feasible choice. There is the Petrified Wood Geopark and the Chen Yi Memorial Hall. The ticket price is 60 yuan. It is a suitable place to take your children for a run.
In Qingzhou, a city that never sleeps, the ticket price is 69 on weekdays, and the programs are intensive. But to be honest - if I just want to taste the snacks, watch the scene under the lights, and walk around the ancient city, I will spend less money and the atmosphere will be very corresponding.
Peach comes in two seasons
It can be eaten fresh in summer, but in autumn and winter, there will be "winter snow peach", which is very sweet and has the characteristics of storage stability. You can still buy this peach until November. Do not buy it casually at roadside stalls. You need to look for regular supermarkets.
Wear a hat to protect you in strong winds. Don't hold your phone too far out - it could fall off a cliff.
How about two days and one night?
On the first day, I entered the city at noon and stayed in the outer circle. After eating, I turned around the ancient city. When I went to Ouyuan and Fucai Gate at three or four in the afternoon, the setting sun and the lights could collide. When the city gate lights came on at night, standing in the halo, I felt like the Song Dynasty had just ended its business.
The next morning, I got up and climbed Yunmen Mountain, overlooking the city from the top of the mountain. We started going down the mountain at eight or nine o'clock, returned to the hotel to wash our faces, and then went to the museum. There are fewer people in the afternoon, so you can leisurely watch the "Millennium Smile". At four o'clock, we returned to the ancient city for additional photos, and then had another bite of mutton dumplings. Set off on the return journey at six or seven o'clock.
Remember a few little things
Ignore museum scalpers who make reservations on their behalf, they are not officially authorized.
Don’t join in the fun of the “last-minute fruit platter” and “photo-taking milk tea” at the ancient city night market.
Don't wear new shoes on the mountain, as the rocks are slippery.
Taxi prices have peaks, and it will be a little more expensive to go from North Railway Station to the ancient city in the evening. If there is a traffic jam, go to the intersection and call again.
There are sometimes discounts on coupons. The package that includes "Ouyuan, Fucaimen, Ancient City of Memory, Gongyuan, and Kuixing Tower" costs about 30 yuan per set, which is quite a bargain.
If you want to bring succulents with you when you go to the flower market, don’t rush. Don’t rush to the first one. Instead, circle around the east and west halls. This way, you can save half the price difference.
Qingzhou, which was once the site of Guanggu, the old capital of Nanyan, is now quietly located in the fields to the west of the city. Whenever the wind blows, an archway will appear in front of you, and a ridge will appear next. The past and present are not noisy or noisy here.
There is a sign with the word "Shou" on the mountain, and there is a popular saying that "no man is as tall as he is tall". Cooperating with the wind generated by Wangshou Pavilion, the city suddenly has an auspicious atmosphere.
Workdays are best in late spring and early autumn. The wind is soft and the light is good, I want to laugh even after taking two steps.
If you can take the high-speed rail, choose to take the high-speed rail to Qingzhou North Station. Take out the appointment screenshot in your pocket. Come with your friends and share a piece of honey and three knives at the gate of the city after climbing the mountain.
sweet. Really sweet.
