Huaxi Park

After the ten miles of river beach, enter Huaxi town, you can see the famous Huaxi Park. The park blends with the towns in the towns, and is closely connected with the Shili River Beach. No wonder Marshal Chen Yi wrote poetry after visiting Huaxi and praised: "True mountains and real waters are everywhere, Huaxi layout is more natural, Shili River Beach is as bright as a mirror, a few steps to flower a few farmland". Marshal Chen Yi's poem, rightly leads out of the beauty of Huaxi Park.

I’m currently living in Huaxi, and this is a perfect place to chill and relax. Air is fresh, grass is green & the water is refreshing.

It was a good sunny day, great place to exercise and workout (walking) whilst enjoying the scenic spots around the park.

Beautiful mountains and clear waters, outstanding people, hospitable, plateau pearl.

A few steps westward are the "musical fountain". I didn't notice the fountain. The square is full of colorful flowers, so I repaired it here. ​ 2. Further west to the "Music Square" along the road is a bonsai exhibition. The square stage has performances on specific days. There are many old photos on the corridor shelf next to the stage, telling the history and honor of Huaxi Park. ​ 3. Continue to the west is the "water lotus pond" and "lotus pond", and large lotus lotus is spread on the water. Step west on the "pigeon bridge", and the green leaves and red flowers on both sides make the bridge like a dragon boat on the Nanming River. After Premier Zhou visited Southeast Asia to return home, he released peaceful pigeons on this bridge. ​ 4. The fork in front choose the direction of "Baibu Bridge" to visit north first, but not to go back. Baibu Bridge is not a real bridge, it is a road formed by more than 100 stones in the water. One side of the river is a small waterfall on the other side. It is very exciting to walk, and the legs are a bit soft. ​ 5. After crossing the bridge, climb the "Lushan" north. The mountain is not 10 minutes to the "Yitian Pavilion" on the top of the mountain. The pavilion is the commanding height of the southern end of the Shilihe Beach. It is worth a visit. The "Feiyun Pavilion" on the mountain and a small cave leading to the mountain are closed and cannot be entered. ​ 6. Go west and go down the mountain through the "Qinghuilou Site" (only the stone foundation left) to the west gate of the park. Visit counterclockwise. Take 10 minutes to go to the "Guishan" and turn around. There is an "air defense pavilion" on the mountain (air defense school built during the Anti-Japanese War). ​ 7, cross the "bashang bridge" (the bridge is lying on the bottom of the bridge, I don't know if it is wild or domesticated) and then go to the middle of the park. Counterclockwise passing by "Xishe" (the entrance is outside the gate of the park, Zhou Premier stayed), "Snake Mountain" (the mountain road is snake-shaped, 15 minutes walk. There are pavilions built by Qingju Zhou Kui), "Peony Garden" (peony theme gardening, but the flowers are sparse), "Fengshan" (10 minutes walk), Visit the "Gion Garden" east. Gion Garden is also called Dongshe, is the place where the literary giant Ba Jin and Xiao Shan are engaged, and inside is a memorial hall. ​ 8. In the last large park, take the counterclockwise from the garden and pass the "small train station" (next to the flower bed and the "angel wings"), "big lawn" (there are many white tents on the lawn suitable for wild scorpions, which may be charged), "Metasequoia Avenue" (Metasequoias on both sides of the road are straight like guards) and then go to the "General's Tomb". The general's tomb is the coat of arms of the 200th division of the Myanmar Expeditionary Army and the famous anti-Japanese general, General Dai Anlan (really buried in Anhui). The path behind the tomb can go up to the "Hulu Slope Landscape Pavilion" under construction on the mountain. 9. Finally, I turned around the nearby "Bi Taoyuan" and "Red Maple Garden". The scenery of the two gardens was not the most prosperous due to the season. Then I left the park from Gate 2, and all the landscapes basically took 3 hours to walk all the way.
