A Visit to Phoenix Ancient Town
Many people know Phoenix Ancient Town,
are because of Shen Shixu,
Mr. Shen's poetic source Border Towntext description,
saw the white pagoda, flowing water, hanging houses…
So Phoenix Ancient Town became many people's
one of the must-visit destinations
For me, a gentleman who pursues food, beauty and women,
it is also planted
Unfortunately, Mr. Shen's Phoenix is more than 1200 kilometers from Xi'an,
The wish to go to Phoenix has always been stranded because of work,
Occasionally, a group of friends would mention it
There is also Phoenix Ancient Town in, Shaanxi, deep in the mountains
Seeing an ancient town doesn't need to be far
100 kilometers from Xi'an downtown
So I happily went to explore it
There are two reasons
One is to rest and enjoy the scenery along the way
Two is that the road from Xi'an to Phoenix Ancient Town is under repair and the road conditions are not good
From the gate of Phoenix Ancient Town,
all around are newly built houses
There isn't any sense of the past and ancient
But walking through the old street,
you can still feel the traces of time
You can vaguely feel the former glory and bustle of the town
According to introduction, Phoenix Ancient Town has a history of 1400 years
It's a pity that this former gem of Southern Shaanxi,
the beauty of small bridges, flowing water and people,
now exists in phenomena

Overall, this trip to explore me with a sigh
A slight disappointment sigh
Because of their own expectations were too high
One is because of Shen Shixu's Phoenix Ancient Town,
Two is because of local friends' recommendation
Friends recommended, it's understandable to think
After all, who wouldn't say their hometown is beautiful. There is also beauty in this beauty, and beautiful memories
Friends, if you pass by, you can feel it
Going to Phoenix specifically to see it might be disappointing
After all, this Phoenix is not that Phoenix
