Little-know Resort for Hiking in Spring 鮮為人知的踏青勝地

黃曉琴

In early spring， the temperatures are warming up， and flowers and trees arejust beginning to bloom， making it one of the most pleasant seasons for travel.

早春，氣溫開始回暖，草木已經(jīng)開始復(fù)蘇、鮮花開始綻放。春天也因此成為一年中最適合旅行的季節(jié)之一。

Every spring， massive crowds flood into Wuyuan， a city of Jiangxi province， for rapeseed flowers.But Shaxi in Yunnan also comes to life with the flowers in spring， and offers a variety of untouched cultural gems.Shaxi is located halfway between Dali and Lijiang.It takes about 90 minutes by car and three hours by bus to get from Lijiang to Shaxi.It is surrounded by mountains that discourage mass tourism， allowing its original beauty to remain intact.Shaxi village was an important node on chama gudao， the ancient Tea and Horse Caravan Route， which is less famous than the Silk Road but arguably of equal importance in terms of what it did for cultural and economic exchange.Hiking along a part of the trail can be arduous， but when you seethe gorgeous rural landscape—wooden houses， winding streets and ancient courtyards， everything will be worthwhile.

每年春天，都會有大量游客涌入江西婺源觀賞油菜花。云南沙溪的油菜花同樣生機(jī)盎然。同時(shí)，沙溪還有許多尚未被世人打擾的文化瑰寶。沙溪位于大理與麗江之間，從麗江到沙溪坐大巴需要3小時(shí)，駕車只需要90分鐘。正由于沙溪四周山巒環(huán)繞，常令游人望而卻步，卻反而鮮受打擾，保留了最初的美景。沙溪是古時(shí)茶馬古道上的重要中轉(zhuǎn)站。茶馬古道雖然名氣不及絲綢之路，但卻是同樣重要的文化經(jīng)濟(jì)交流通道。在茶馬古道上徒步雖然是一段艱難的旅行，但卻頗為值得，因?yàn)槟銓吹綗o與倫比的鄉(xiāng)村風(fēng)光——木質(zhì)的房屋，蜿蜒的街道，古色古香的庭院。

Peony blossoms bring a burst of color to Luoyang every spring.Peony fever inLuoyang dates back to the Tang Dynasty when the emperors， especially Emperor Xuanzong， favored the flowers and promoted them as cultural icons.

As the flowers symbolized wealth and honor， they not only appeared in textiles， artwork and architecture， but also in poetry.Li Bai once compared imperial concubine Yang Yuhuan to a peony for the attention she attracted in the imperial court.Even today， vestiges of peony culture remain visible in Luoyang sculptures and fashion.

If you want to appreciate the cultural charm of the scenery， this place will be the best choice.

每年春天，盛開的牡丹花都會把整個(gè)洛陽城裝點(diǎn)得色彩斑斕。洛陽城的牡丹熱最早可追溯到唐朝。唐朝的皇帝們均喜愛牡丹，并將其視為一種文化符號，其中又以唐玄宗最為突出。

由于牡丹花象征著財(cái)富與榮譽(yù)，所以它不僅出現(xiàn)在紡織品、藝術(shù)品和建筑中，還出現(xiàn)在詩歌里。李白就曾在詩中把楊貴妃比作牡丹，以寫她在皇宮中是如何引人注目。即使到了今天，在洛陽的雕塑與風(fēng)尚中，依然可見牡丹文化的遺跡。

如果你想去領(lǐng)略一下景色中所包含的文化底韻，這將是踏青的不二選擇。
