Mu Tower Lane: Witness the civilized memory of Lao Lanzhou

In the memory of Lao Lanzhou people, there must be an alley, that is, Mu Tower Lane.

shape

It is not difficult to find Mu Tower Lane. Walking south along the Zhongshan Bridge of the first bridge of the world. In the middle of the Zhongshan Road, you can see two stone pillars. Words.

Looking at it from the appearance, this is not a conspicuous place, and it may even be ignored by people passing by, but its reputation is not small. The gourmet list of foreign people and Lanzhou people must occupy a place here.

Entering the Muka Lane from different locations, the scenery you see is different.

If you go in from the entrance of the middle section of Zhongshan Road, you can see the excitement belonging to Lanzhou a few steps.

Standing at the door and carefully observing the Maga Lane. The width of the street is only a few meters. There are several convenience stores at the door. Walking in it is some famous snacks.

Walking in the alley, stepping on the newly trimmed road, humming the song, watching the shops around. The overall Mu Tower Lane is not long, about 400 meters, starting from Zhongshan Road in the west and Yongchang North Road in the east, in the shape of a "T". When you walk inward, you will see the shops of all colors, the green brand of the green brand, the yellow brand of the croar, the white brand of the spicy spicy ... These colors are scattered around the Mu Tower Lane, which represents the various colors of Lanzhou authentic cuisine. You beckoned at a glance, I don't know which one to eat.

If you enter the west exit of Zhangye Road Pedestrian Street, you can see a wooden yellow brand in one step in one side, and then take a few steps to see a wooden yellow brand with three large characters -wooden tower alleys.

Going back, I saw the parking lot and building, and I couldn't help but mutter: Is this really famous for food?

Until the depth of about thirty meters, the corner of Mu Tower Lane finally revealed that there were rows of restaurants on the left hand, and each light was bright. Through transparent glass windows, many people were sitting in it to enjoy food.

Mu Tower Lane has a history of more than 300 years. The earliest was named "Wushu Lane" because of the five ancient trees in the alley. According to historical records, since the period of Zhenguan, the messenger of Gaochang's ordered to create Pagoda Temple, which was rebuilt again in the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. Because the tower was wooden structure, it was also commonly known as the wooden tower temple. Every morning and dusk, you can hear the sound of the golden bell on the top of the temple. Follow the incense in the temple to bring tranquility to the people around you.

Unfortunately, with several fires, the entire ancient temple has disappeared. I couldn't see the trees again, and I couldn't hear the bells, leaving only the name of a "wooden tower alley", which made Lanzhou people call for many years.

Voice

After entering a few meters of Mita Lane, the noise of the water and horse horse outside seemed to be separated from the world. The sound came from the ears.

Standing at the door of the store, you will hear the boss enthusiastically greeted: "Come in and take a look at it, eat one, taste a good taste." After rejecting it, the boss would not be angry, but just smiled and said to you.

Slowly walking forward, from time to time, the sound of ordering, the sound of the cake came out of the stove, the sound of fell on the chopping board, the sound of fried food in the pan, the sound of the aunt shook the cold skin, the sound of the ingredients fell into the yogurt ...

If the night is deeper, the shop is about to be closed, the wooden chair collides with the table, the porcelain bowl is stacked to the kitchen, and the lighting lights are "snap". Several shop owners embarked on their way home.

The deeper into the alley, the more popular the family is, the stronger you will hear a few children playing together, and you will hear the sound of the boss sitting in the corner of the shop. The sound of studying well ...

There are fireworks and popularity in the alley. Various sounds are mixed together, forming a wooden tower alley with fireworks.

taste

If Mu Tower Lane must choose the biggest impact on the senses, it must be "taste".

From Zhongshan Road to the alley, the air seemed to have "deteriorated". The smoke outside was isolated by a gate, and the alley turned into a world of food.

Zuo Xuan looked at it, I don't know which one to eat. Whether it is "Liangpi" praised by everyone, or "Dong Ji Moring Spicy" recommended by friends, it has become the biggest problem.

The dessert after meals is not difficult to choose. A bowl of colorful Lanzhou yogurt has become the best choice for eating after meals. Then bring two old Lanzhou pot helmets or roasted potato cakes as breakfast. "Shutan" in the morning.

When you walk to half, you may be attracted by the aroma of the casserole. Looking up, the red signboard, the golden characters- "round red casserole pure handmade casserole noodles". In order to wait for the casserole of the hot air, the soup is clear, the ingredients are good, and the temperature is high. When the soup base is bubbling on the stove, it has smelled the aroma.

If you are thirsty, buy a cup of ice and cool gaps, unlike the gardenia milk tea that puts haha, and the "look back" is rich in ingredients.Waiting for a bowl of sweet embryos, the portion is not large, but the wine that is unique to the sweet embryo can be a lot, especially the ice that has been ice, which is definitely cold in summer.It is confirmed to people that Lanzhou is a city with "alcoholic addiction" everywhere.The taste of Mu Tower Lane is the taste of gourmet mixed together.

When I walked into the Maga Lane, it was like walking into the fireworks on earth. I stepped into a small alley from the busy world, and stepped into the bustling, noisy but warm and loving streets that exudes the fireworks on earth.

The Mita Lane in Lanzhou still exists. It is not only history, but also now, and accompany Lanzhou, shining in everyone's hearts, standing in the food industry in Lanzhou.

Each step is history, every step is Lanzhou.
