On the road: Encountering tranquility - a half-day tour of the city.

Living in a hot spring town, I have to go shopping in Anning city. It is 8 kilometers away from the city. Taxi takes orders quickly and costs about 17 or 18 yuan. Along the Mantis River, we gradually leave the mountainous area and enter the urban area. The streets are wide, clean and tidy, and there are many high-rise buildings. It is impossible to tell that it is a county-level city, and there is no crowding and hustle and bustle of a big city. [One] The first stop is Anning Confucian Temple [Shrine], which is both a national key cultural relic protection unit and an Anning City Museum. Unexpectedly, I came here excitedly, but was rejected. It turned out that the museum was closed for 5 days due to renovations. [Two] Nanyuan: Go to Nanyuan as planned, walk about 800 meters, go south along Lianran Street, pass the Anning Municipal Party Committee, cross Baihua West Road, there is People's Square on the right, and the City Central Park on the left. Go to the right at the intersection Not far away is Nanyuan. Although this is a modern garden that was only completed in 1991, it was designed by famous architects. The building furniture in the garden is all made of nanmu. The entire garden design is no less than that of Suzhou gardens, and is known as the "No. 1 garden in Yunnan"! [Three] Yong'an Old Street: The back door of Nanyuan leads to Baihua Park, but at the entrance of Nanyuan, you can see Yong'an Old Street on the right, so you can go out from the main entrance to visit Yong'an Old Street. Yong'an Old Street is not long. There are blue brick antique buildings on both sides, and the ground is a stone road. Not far away there is a stone carving with an artistic relief of the Ten Scenes of An Ning. At this time, it was around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, there was no one around, and many shops were closed. [Four] Baihua Park: Coming out of the old street is the People's Square. Going around to the left is Baihua Park. It is a place for people in the city center to relax and exercise. There are piles of people playing cards and dancing in circles, all enjoying themselves. fun! The park is full of green, with blue sky, white clouds, and lakes, it’s a picture-perfect scene! [Scenic] Take a walk around the park and rest on the shore. Time flows quietly and your thoughts drift slowly! How to describe Anning City? In a word: Tranquility is a great place! [Facepalm]
