There is no "boat" in a boat

In many literati, Lanzhou was a city of rivers and lakes, leaving in the early morning and hanging at night. But I think this is a poetic city. The north and south mountains are confronted with the north and south, and the Yellow River passes through the city. In the narrow cities, there are feelings of flowers and teenagers, and rough and bold enthusiasm.

Ye Zhi, the famous Irish poet Ye Zhi, said: "In the final analysis, the place where you can hear the cosmic singing is that you have taken root in time, place, family, history, etc. Such a street, in the past life and this life of Lanzhou, may be a cultural mark.

Regarding a boat, my initial perception was born in the text of the famous writer Ye Zhou, and he was born and grew up on this small street. He said that a boat was so graceful to him. In this life, he just wanted to write this one. The street called "a boat". Looking at this street from different angles, there will be different feelings. Friends from other places always like to leave the footprints on the Yellow River and dedicate the taste buds to Zhengning Road. After seeking various answers, I feel that I will go to Lanzhou and food. And passing by is the direction. So, I ignored the history and stories of the city, without the wind of the past. These streets, a boat, arrow lane, Changjiaxiang, Gongxing Pier, Cuiyingmen ... also commercialized A lot of it. Perhaps it is too stubborn to be beautiful, or the emotions that love fantasies have not yet died. In the years in Lanzhou, I am always willing to pay attention to the gentleness in the city's bones. interest of. The folk town, known as China's "Seattle", has only faded a slightly desolate basic color in the names of these streets. A boat is the beginning of the gentleness of Lanzhou.

There are several versions about the origin of a boat. According to the "Lanzhou Fangzhi · Hydrological Data", there was a soaring Yellow River during the Guangxu period. A wooden boat outside Lanzhou City followed the waves and drifted to the shore of the reed flowers. Therefore, this place was later called "a boat". It is rumored that the terrain has always been low near a ship today. It has always been flooded. Once it encounters the water, it is as difficult as a boat, so it is named after a boat. The official version that is now more recognized is that Zuo Zongtang raised the coffin west, led the children of the eight thousand Xiangjiang, crossed the Yellow River, and entered the Xinjiang River. They felt in the rural Guan thousands of miles, and the leaves of the leaves returned to the roots, and they raised funds to create a garden here. The righteous garden was strangely shaped, like a large ship of Southern Southern Airlines. The shape of Yiyuan is called "one boat".

Regardless of the origin, this ship is full of stories.

Nowadays, a ship in the south, north, and middle sections, like three workers, set up the main veins of Lanzhou and west. The commercial building is towering, the residential building is quiet, and the traveler is a businessman. The "big ship" no longer exists, but the ship in the hearts of Lanzhou has been retained. This is the cultural mark of Lanzhou, Jincheng.

In Lanzhou, many old place names have its origin, and "one boat" is just one of them. Lanzhou did not have the sea, and the "one boat" of quietness did not seem to have a chance to break the wind. But there are cities' fireworks and the vitality of never slacking, ordinary but not mediocre.

Lanzhou is a very strange city. Her romance comes from red wine and mutton. Her mood comes from beer and barbecue. It is delicate in bold, with sensuality in the bold, with emotion in sensuality. It is an immigrant city that accommodates the beauty of more people. Perhaps this is the most authentic appearance of Lanzhou.
