The Greenway

There is a book on literary aesthetics, named "Listen to Green" by the author, and many people in front of the bookstore shelves read it as "listen to the edge". As a color, can "green" be used to listen? The author explains that human beings are able to hear because they can feel, and that "listening to green" is the word for rebirth (valuing life).

What aroused my interest in listening to green by the word "empathy" was a deep experience riding the Sunshine Coast Greenway, which opened in early July. At the opening ceremony of the greenway in early July, the city leaders themselves, together with the public, rode or ran from Wanpingkou to the mouth of the Chaobai River, completing the twenty-eight kilometer greenway experience, and the whole city thus found its long-wandering development position of being close to the nature of the 100 kilometer coastline. As the scroll unfolds, the coastal greenway, known as "the heart of the people, exquisite beauty, the hard work, the road to development", has been named by the People's Daily and Xinhua News Agency, and has become a popular spot for thousands of "netizens".

Because of exercise and hobby cycling, and daughter-in-law often take advantage of the morning or double holiday, from the residence of the beach four road, after the Tiande sea view city and IFC international wealth, driving on the Wanpingkou Bridge, all the way to Wanpingkou Square, and then along the hardened cycling road to the north, or flowers brilliant grass green or dense forest path sea waves sound, but to reach the Yingxu Square, cycling road can only look at the sunny coast of the mountains and sea days sigh The.

At that time, the scenic spot did not charge, riding road at any time can come in, the hobby of the heart can be drenched to the fullest, charges after the activity was greatly restricted, riding road can only walk, or by a small train through, more than three years even once did not pass on the riding road. At the end of March, Wanpingkou scenic area entered the open mode, and in June, the media around the "greenway" gradually reported more and more, before in many people's eyes and ears, "greenway" is still a rare and new term.

At this time the ride can still only be carried out on the road outside the Wanpingkou scenic area, the south side of Taigong Island to Yingxu Square wooden stacks, due to the black face of the man in the post in the logo suit, and was sealed by an iron fence, but from the beginning of summer saw the original puddles of shrimp ponds and mudflats on the shore of Taigong Island was bulldozed by groups of bulldozers, years of wasteland is a good thing to use up, just do not know what is doing, and then with the The media reports, only to know is in the construction of greenway, it is looking forward to it.

These years feel the changes in Rizhao city, but also feel that the pace of life around the faster and faster, the invisible pressure is also getting bigger and bigger, to the seaside ride, become the city people to pursue green low-carbon life, release the pressure of a form of leisure and fitness. Before the fee, a bike, even without other means of transport, in the search for the forest wilderness, listening to the sound of green waves, although half an hour's drive to the Yingxu Square, but still found a drunken morning or weekend.

The gunshot in early July meant that the waterfront cycling path was being extended northward, and also marked the completion of the Sunshine Coast Greenway in the efforts of the planners and builders, and also marked that cycling enthusiasts, including myself, could be released from their restraints to enjoy the nature of the waterfront. The gunshot, although it was fired in the media, resounded in my heart, so it was like grass grew in my heart, and I wanted to pull it out while listening to the breath of the Yellow Sea and even the Pacific Ocean again and again.

The morning after the gun went off, the sun had not yet jumped up from the sea at the mouth of Wanping, "Rizhao blue" in the sea antennae rose in the sunset has been presented overhead, my daughter-in-law and I came to welcome the sun prayer bell, seems to have heard the crunching sound, instinctively riding their respective cars, dodging the bustle of tourists to the north set off. The morning breeze slipped through my cheeks, the smell of the sea opened and closed my nose, the marble floor was flushed with ochre brown, just sprayed greenway signs, still emitting the fragrance of multi-colored paint, excitement and physical energy began to power up, Park Smoke Plaza has been reflected in front of the eyes.

After the familiar Y-shaped intersection on the north side, in the wood trestle and cement road between the green grass, just put up a greenway service station sign, daughter-in-law stopped the car and said, this is the greenway Wanpingkou station ah, take a picture, very monumental, right. Then ride the car, light gray cement road in a pine forest winding, fresh cycling road signs clearly into the eyes, from time to time, there are riding handsome men and women from the opposite or behind the shoulder, nodding to each other, releasing a slight smile, is a hobby of mutual communication, there is a lot of comfort between the heart to benefit from words, my daughter-in-law said, cycling also have peers ah.

The pine forest flashes through the cave-like light, in front of you is another green turf paved bumpy green, dotted with odd-shaped wangtang and chic brown European-style houses, stopping and cruising in the young people here, with happy faces, posing in different positions or gazing or smiling, passing on the mood they most want to express to each other at the moment, on both sides of the greenway or on the beautiful spots of the green or beach, leaving a figure of love. The orange train snake pose

The orange train swam in a serpentine posture, beating the old-fashioned ringing bell of arrival, slowly signaling the visitors to take shelter, and stopped at the wedding park station at the north end of the green area, where some more young people with curiosity got off, followed by some visitors who were anxiously waiting for another piece of new green. The sun has jumped out of the sea, throwing pots of hazel light onto the shore, and the moment it crosses the beach, it melts into the undulating greenery and chic European-style brown houses laid out by the green turf.

The left embraces the green land, the right depends on the seaside, the concrete road under the wheels is like a green stream, in the small train snake-like rattling, splashing a large amount of oxygen-rich ions dyed green forward. The happiest thing at this moment should be the nostrils of my daughter-in-law and me. I opened and closed my nose, full of heart relief, turf in the shape of waves or mountains, clustered to be issued, blue sunken, sky green, grass green, ink green, goose yellow, who convened this huge green feast, from the beach to the green, from the infinity pool scattered countless small mirrors, to the air sea shadow of the white place, nowhere is not pervaded by the vast green, as if the boom.

Visitors may wonder or admire, Lintao Square's gray and red two-color cycling path is bright and clear with the greenway logo, the small train winding posture is still moving slowly and methodically, it took a lot of effort to shrink into a small point in the green flood, and suddenly disappeared. The tip of "intersection ahead" warmed the hearts of cyclists, and my daughter-in-law seemed to be touched, saying to herself that it was really thoughtful. Her touch makes me think that this is the design and construction of the exquisite craftsmanship of the performance.

The green shade supported by the cave into a piece of light, Lintao Square of the East and West channel is now reflected in front of the eyes, the fishy saltiness of the sea breeze through the freshness of the greenway, the sunlight large clarity of bright cheeks, passing tourists eyes full of curiosity and satisfaction. Here before the inlaid rows of mushroom stone is no longer, replaced by a gray and red two-color concrete road, the wheels pressed on it without the feeling of thumping, a moment is not adapted.

The good thing is that there are two paths for selection in front of us, we used to lift the wheels to the northwest and drive on the long and curved wooden trestle, but this time my daughter-in-law did not propose, in accordance with the guidance of the greenway logo, driving on the clearly marked cycling path. Both sides of the pine forest there is a breeze blowing, the green grass by the wheel lightly swinging, green like a feather lightly plucked heartstrings, issued a rustling micro sound. The soft green layer swirls away with the wind. When the wind is a little stronger, the bowing peach branches to welcome the wind whispering, leaves with the wind rustling, thousands of peach branches singing with each other, like a shallow whisper, but also like the chanters in the seaside wandering.

The breeze is mixed with the special smell of the seashore, the low pine boughs then let out a low roar, pine boughs collided with each other, jubilant, green wave after wave to run forward. The wind is strong, some anxious, from the grass to the pale trees, none of them unfolded branches to meet the arrival of the wind, with the wind direction and move, with the sound of the wind and whistling, dragon-shaped riding path trapped in a sea of green, in this endless green, days of irritation really swept away.

I confess that I ride with my daughter-in-law on this coastal greenway, is to find green, although the eyes of the place is not a blank sheet of paper, but also not ready to go as a new camera, however, my lens is good, how can it withstand this roaming the road to the gods of the green brush, casually in my heart, eyes, clothes a smear, is a wonderful painting. The heavenly brush is from God, only God gave me this will be ecstatic will be sentimental will be invisible as a wild flower a tender leaf of perception, I can hold a green tears.

The green that stretches all the way over and is so shocking is hidden in the great silence of the acacia forest on the north side of Bathing Moon Square, where the tall acacia canopy holds up a green vault, and the gray cycling path silently reaches between the trunks of the trees, and the green vault is spread out along the road without seeing the edge, and the burst of comfort from the shade bush reminds me of Mr. Wu Guanzhong's paintings. The bones of the tree, the branches move and leaves save, colorful and vivid in the "sunshine blue" under the seashore.

The green of the acacia forest is splashed with ink, for a brush, for the brush "point, painting, whisk, halo, dye, stain" and born, such green, suddenly clear and sober, suddenly delicate brush, Chinese painting of reality, seaside sky drift, forest deep, birds singing and butterflies flying, fish jumping mudflats, really "water extreme The water is extremely clear and red, the grass is flat and the spring is dyed with smoke and brocade." Exploring the forest, all the way listening to the sound of waves, listening to the illusion of the green presented in the painting, the green is so rich and deep that it can not be washed away not lightly crushed poetic meaning, there are paintings in the realm, there are realms in the painting.

It turns out that only the body in the seaside forest roaming, people riding in the forest greenway, there is so engraved in the heart. Greenway intoxication this forest of mood, so deep that I do not know the future. The branches of the trees, shrubs and flowers along the road, always wiped by the raindrops and wind polishing over the same, oily and green, a cluster, a bundle, crystal lovely, at this time the acacia forest in the quiet movement, movement in the quiet, the tree gas clear, all the wood glowing with the empty forest after the new rain and dripping green.

Finally saw the end of the acacia forest, another "intersection ahead" warm tips, printed on the gray riding path, has seen the Yingxu Square. A small dark purple train was driving happily from the opposite side, and the visitors in the seats were watching and admiring with satisfaction, gleefully mingling with each other. Previously, the bicycle wheel could only beat back here, and the beauty of Taigong Island was only expected to be sighed by the mountains and the sea and the sky. The feeling of not being able to enjoy the ride was finally gone, as the train parking lot, previously painted fuchsia, was now connected to the fuchsia plaza bordering Shanhaitian after crossing Yingxu Square.

The two squares are connected, which makes the location even more important. The Wanpingkou scenic area is connected to the sunny coast of Shanhaitian from here, and the iron fence and the black face of the logo suit are gone, and the riding path is more clearly marked in the square. The green lawn, gray, white and red painted roads, lush phacelia, bamboo and blooming chrysanthemums surrounded by the tower pine, forming a square with a strong sense of openness pattern, daughter-in-law could not help but stop the car by the tower pine.

It was a lucky and pleasant start to leave your own figure in the long-awaited landscape where you finally stopped. Turn your head to see, the north side of the erection of a bridge three or four meters above the ground, white railings purple and gray two-color bridge to the seashore and the Bihai Road extension, the newly planted linden trees between the turntable stretching branches, new leaves are curious about the trees and flowers around, look a little strange, while the bridge next to the bamboo forest and pine trees in the sea breeze nodding and clapping in the hospitality to accommodate it. Under the wheels is already just completed the dragon and phoenix floating bridge of Taigong Island Park.

Riding on the floating bridge, a clump, a cluster, a freshly born scene, followed by the rotation of the wheel backwards, the wasteland was bulldozed flat new Taigong Island Park at a glance, once no scenery of the wasteland is now transformed into the city's green lungs, blue sky, white clouds and sunshine, "air walking", "painting". Under the blue sky, white clouds and sunshine, the multifarious experience of "walking in the air" and "swimming in the picture" has been unfolded, "a game", "two pools", "five bridges", "ten scenes". The "ten scenes", "Lanqiao Jinjiang" in the distance and the "red pagoda" in Taigong town, accompanied my daughter-in-law and me through the park, the whole park is like a heavenly fairy room, driving in this kind of fairy atmosphere wrapped The air corridor, the body followed the car slowly moving, how like the foot on the immortal clouds of Qi Tian Da Sheng, towards the Jade Emperor called the direction of the somersault clouds.

I imagine that the greenway through Wang Jia Soap Sunshine Coast and Jin Yang Bay Bridge is where the Jade Emperor called, because there is a curiosity that has never been passed by before, and it should be the peak of the greenway design and construction and the most wonderful. The greenway passes through many stations with the word "Taiwan", I have long heard of these place names, but have no intention to go into detail, now I understand, Taiwan is short for pier, is the Ming Dynasty to prevent the Japanese invasion of the sea, to raise the enamel smoke, to pass enemy information, in case of military communication facilities, in today's words is the early warning.

After passing through the middle of Daquan Gou fishing port and seafood market, the greenway and Bihai Road go north side by side to Zhangjiatai, which has a south-facing seashore. This section of the south-facing seashore is not very long, but it is dotted with restaurants and hotels with flavors that blend fishing culture and maritime culture, because it is close to Daquan Gou fishing port and market, where seafood is constantly available all year round. The "fishermen's restaurant" exudes the rich island cuisine of the Duntai atmosphere, so Zhangjiatai has become a story of the Greenway site.

The recently opened Antai "Sea Story" B&B and Ocean Aesthetics Museum, a fine project for rural revitalization, is closely connected to Bihai Road, in which the greenway winds northward in the greenery and pine forest, turning to the sign, the white dots present a series of arcs, and the arcs point to the greenway ahead, which brings my daughter-in-law and I, who just rode on it, a lot of peace of mind. A lot of peace of mind, do not have to worry about taking the wrong road and deviated from the greenway, after the south to the waterfront turned on the pier east a newly repaired floating bridge, red bridge, maintenance workers in the above ripped the wire used to weld the railing, from time to time, the wheels of the ride over the sound of bouncing.

The new city of the Netherlands north of the "Sea Story" close to the Bihai Road, a friend with his family from the south to hit the card, into the Shiyue and sea view two rooms, just in time for the end of July the rainstorm, B&B facilities and service grade are first-class, just ever heavy rainstorm let the electricity inside out, the door wearing glasses security uncle has been serving them, let My friend was grateful. Greenway left the "Sea Story" and reached into the Marine Aesthetics Museum, where a nursery is proposed, creating a garden, scenery, creating things, forming a coastal rooms, marine museum, seaside infinity pool, sea breeze school, diving mystery and other attractive features.

"Epidemic" to spring, grass and trees spitting green, Linyi's friend drove Weylander to here to fly mood, in the infinity pool and sea breeze school, he was fascinated by the reflection of the pool and the school outside the floor windows of the sea and sky, remember this China's coastal only marine aesthetics museum, when leaving also straight out of the future vacation will come back. In the middle of the aesthetics museum and the soccer museum, there are stacked rocks into a stream flowing to the sea, and there are sculptures of soccer players with rich and strong expressions by the stream, and a tall white soccer model stands by the green road on the northwest side, through the gap of each hexagonal block of the model, the green of the soccer field extended and open turf seems like water waves diffusing over.

Turning through the forest, the gray pavement stretches forward, the roadside maiden grass is growing vigorously, the flowers are gorgeous. Peach Blossom Island all the way, the mountain, sea and sky visitor service center and Peach Blossom Island style park is now reflected in front of the eyes, or follow the arc turn sign, rest assured that the north side of the style park to the diffuse water bridge, a small bridge into the sea, gurgling floating over the feet, tourists, reaching into the sea to enter and exit the long dike and pier of Peach Blossom Island, across a section of the beach far from the ochre shine.

A pine forest shade ushered in a downhill, cool refreshment, relaxation and pleasure throughout the body, white bunches of dots appeared again, three pine trees were built directly into the middle of the road, the road is divided into two halves, half is forward, half is back, really ingenious design, is admiring such work of God, and ushered in a greater awe, the front is a concrete square, a party of sea stone I was attracted by the stacked circular well platform and the oak capital reel on top of it, and the visitors were as curious as I was to hold the capital reel and look into the well, but I could not see the water nor the bottom.

Curiosity made me turn my attention to the well stands next to the strange shape of the limestone monument, the monument said the well called the East China Sea Dragon Spring, located in Lijiatai thousand acres of reefs to catch the sea garden, was built in the Ming Dynasty, stands at the head of the tide, flowing for a thousand years, the water is clear and cool, the sea sweet not astringent, inexhaustible, originated from a thousand meters away from the Wolong Mountain spring, by the dark flow to this, Zhouji seaside universal benefit, more than 370 years ago. The spring water is rich in 27 kinds of minerals, often drink can cure arthritis, back and leg pain and other diseases, and refreshing, prolong life, generations of literati and bachelors praise.

Once again, I rode on the red and white floating bridge of the green road, and came to the "sea view pavilion" of Bihai Road, and turned at "Yi seafood", a newly planted flowers and green trees spread out on the roadside, and in the green rendering, the three-story gray square steel observation deck of Lijiatai seaside park It beckoned to me. The steps made of steel plates and bars rotated under my feet, and the first and second floors went up slowly, and when I came to the terrace of the third floor, my eyes were already full of green, and the grass under my feet and the newly planted pines, heathers and clumps of park trees expanded outward in a circle, and the greenway bent into the depths of the greenery.

The Marine Museum, the greenway service station and the purple fish-like sculpture in the park by the sea, as well as the peach blossom island that is about to appear on the sea, came from near and far, as if to catch a green event. I seem to hear the life in this event in the surge, the whirring sea waves is its breathing, the gurgling water is its pulse beating beat, that the Gram break out the tip of the grass is the continuation of its life ...... immersed in the embrace of the park green, every cell of the body is also dyed green, washed by the green liquid to clear and refreshing, the whole body is soothed The spirit of the park is also excited.

Following the greenway logo, the gray cycling road winds its way into a big green, chic street lights followed by fig or spherical wooden villas on the west side of the road, a row of exactly six, like yurts, growing in a thicket of green bamboo exuberance, stop to look at the roadside sign, which states: high-end talent apartments. Not far to the north, there is a gate leading to Bihai Road, and there is a more detailed introduction in the wooden frame column next to the gate, which turns out to be the Sunshine Coast Camping Park built and operated by the Elephant Group. The greenway extends into the park, and although there are quite a few bifurcations, the warm turning hints on the road ensure that my daughter-in-law and I do not get lost.

With the greenway guiding us, we wandered through the private gardens and the resort gardens along the river. My daughter-in-law, who had long been mesmerized by the chic shape of the wooden villas and the greenery between the villas, either kept raising her cell phone to take pictures or asked me to take pictures of her posing with her gunas, leaving her happy figure along the riding path, in the greenery and in front of the villas. Riding on a wooden bridge erected over a wide river, wooden block pavement, wooden pile stopper, concrete piers, a long arc across the river, the house distribution map suggests that this is the Xiushui River, flowing from the fat house, not far past the bridge and returned to the sea, dividing the park into two beautiful north and south areas as it rushes to throw itself into the embrace of the sea.

The wooden block pavement at the north end of the bridge continues forward, dividing a sandy concrete road to the west beneath my feet, with the cycling path clearly marked into view. There are leaf villas on the south side of the road, and two lakes on the north side, Qingxin and Jingxin, with rows of villas in the lake rising from the mirror-like water, truly feeling the "Venice of the East" gently spanning the shores of the dream lake. The whole sandy concrete road was sandwiched in front of the lake, villas and greenery, like the once impressive Xishuangbanna. Riding along the lake, first to the west and then to the north, and then turning to the east.

The barbecue street, together with the greenway, extends northward, stopping at the entrance of the "Listen to the Sea" club with a blue eye-catching logo. The business labels of bar and coffee on the left and right next to the door mean that it was and is lively, and the open-air barbecue next to it sends a lot of smoke and fire into the nostrils of tourists, tempting their taste buds to sit down and feast to their heart's content. As the greenway turns into a marble slab, the sound of the waves on the right becomes louder, the waves rolling eagerly toward the shore with white flowers, bearing the forest green waves that come over on the left, embracing intimately on the old fishing boat ramp of the marble steps. Another south-facing waterfront appeared, the huge figure of the 619 warship came into view from afar, the watchtower, flagpole and rocket launcher, rapid-fire guns were visible, it was Renjiatai National Defense Education Base.

Greenway here from marble to red cement turn northwest, intimately accompanied by the national defense education base forward, a greenway signboard side and then turn east, south to the seaside came to the fore, and Zhangjiatai, the same as the north side of the star-studded with different names of fishermen's restaurants and hotels, the south side of the fishing port docked with a large number of fishing boats and crowded bustling seafood market, the shuttle vehicles and crowds signaling the The busy and prosperous fishing harbor and seafood market of Renjiatai are the same as those of Daquangu, which are also supported by this busy and prosperous market.

At the east end of the south-facing waterfront, the greenway left the accompanying Bihai Road and turned into a separate cycling path, and as it descended the slope, I saw the east-facing Reef Park with a prominent "Rizhao National Marine Park" plaque on top of an iron frame, and the large red letters of "Fu" pier were vaguely visible. There is the appearance of the old coastal fishing village, the fishermen's house with a stone courtyard wall, the production brigade headquarters facing the sea, the grain hoard and the fishing gear warehouse, the restored three-story stone mortar lighthouse standing on the boulders in the distance, and the "stone plough" boulder beside the fishing island. The story of the angry tide, accompanied by the waves, is being told.

To the east of "Shi Li Zi", there are naturally formed reefs with peculiar shapes, such as "Tai Shan Sun Watching Peak", "Group of Turtles Haunting the Sea", "Lion Listening to the Wave ", "the group of frogs singing morning", covered in the huge waves, so that visitors from afar as if stepping into a miniature boulder fir forest, marveling at the nature's magic work so created. The "Turtle Exploring the Sea" on the north side of the old lighthouse tells the story of the thousand-year-old tortoise lying on the shore all day waiting for Xu Fu's return and the turtle's manifestation helping the Song Dynasty general Li Bao to defeat the Jin fleet and pacify the sea.

The "holy water" Dragon Spring, a "well" shaped well platform in the shape of a gossip, has the same ancient legend as the divine Dragon Spring in Lijiatai. Dragon body for forty-nine days, the Dragon King recovered thanksgiving, lying body into a clear spring, the water is sweet, a hundred paces away can smell the fragrance burst. Moved by the wonderful legend, scoop up a handful of spring water entrance, holy water really.

The sea, the sea of flowers, the sea of forests. A place furthest from the hustle and bustle. Say goodbye to Longquan, the green road closely accompanied by the beach to the north, already heard the waves running to the coast in the Wujiatai South reef group in the blooming roar, Rizhao Seaside National Forest Park, the familiar gate, the fee charged for 29 years finally stopped today, the cycling path marker printed not far from the entrance, meaning that you can unrestrainedly put into the three "sea "The familiar and unfamiliar look of the forest park. The familiar and unfamiliar look of the forest park is at hand again after a long absence. Green blooms in the eyes and in the heart, the hundred lotus garden is full of flowers and leaves, the water is clear and grass is abundant, the sequoia forest stands up and blooms green for decades, the forest green is transparent and full of curiosity, and the fireworks taste is instantly blooming on the tip of the tongue.

After passing through the park of "Taigongwang of the East China Sea and Shidang of Taishan", the greenway opens up to the north in the seashore. I thought the sea had made a big turn to the west, but only at the turn of the greenway did I see that the beach below the wave blocker was ravaged by the ebbing seawater into a wrinkle that spread more than far away, and there was a ridge full of grass in the middle. The other half of the ridge had excavators and bulldozers posing on it. Nearby, a few egrets had dropped into the water and were feeding smartly with a figure-eight stride.

Oh, it was not the sea turned to the west, but a large river stretched into the beach. At this time, my eyes presented a "tide flat two wide, the wind is hanging a sail" scene, which is around the flow of the Wulian Mountains on the nine immortal mountain thousands of times finally returned to the sea of the Chaobai River, where has been in close contact with the sea for thousands of years, standing on the greenway sign I, at this time to see the light salty between this forgetful interaction between the look. The summer sea is like a mirror, so it illuminates some of the texture of me from the shore of the Shushi River, which is green and not green at heart.

I rode the greenway, clutching the leafy tips of the bamboo poles and stepping on the rhythmic beat of the waves. The sunny coastal greenway, which is a string of points and lines and beads, not only wears the natural nodes of the seashore, but also decorates the humanistic pearls along the route, making me inducted with this platform, this spring, this stone and this forest. After the opening of this waterfront greenway was discovered by many media and tourists, and praised as Rizhao's "green ribbon", but I always felt that something was missing.

When I am excited and my daughter-in-law spent a morning riding this clear corridor, walking through this green so that people will stop breathing in a flash, giving me a moment of life awake and the soul of the quiet coastal slow walk, I want to suggest to the future, with their ears and hearts to listen to the Yellow Sea coast of the branches of the treetops and the wind and waves of the heartbeat and breathing it, this cluster, a drop can wash the heart and lungs, so that people are fresh not to Only when you shrink your life into a dewdrop, a wave, a stream, a reef, can you hear the infinity and depth of its mystery, and can be one with the heavenly music of the seashore in the underworld.
