Interview with Xu Jianyong
At the moment when all parts of the country are striving to build a "harmonious village", on February 10, 2024, the first day of the Chinese New Year, the author stepped on the itinerary of Huatan Village, Xianxi, Yueqing City, Zhejiang Province.
Although there are many ideas in my heart, and many pictures of associations are constructed, in the morning, from the high-speed into the underwater line, all the way over, I was still amazed by the great changes in Huatan Village.
Beautiful! And the beauty of the countryside!
The pavilions and corridors stand in all directions, and the lakes and mountains are full of ingenuity.
The cultural landscape is accompanied by the ancestral hall, and the song building and dance pavilion are in the neighborhood.
Entertainment and fitness are suitable for villagers, and tree-lined paths go around the village.
Harmony and harmony in the countryside, traditional virtues into the hearts of the people.
Oh, yes! The construction of Huatan Village and Meixiang Village is scattered in every corner of the village, with thousands of warps and latitudes, beautiful and graceful. The countryside in memory is already a microcosm of the past, and the gap between urban and rural areas that has been narrowed is a new journey of new development in the new era. The changes in Huatan Village can make people deeply feel the charm and essence of ink Jiangnan, like a beautiful picture, thus outlining the grand and beautiful picture of Hemei Village.
Walking into Huatan Village, there is no hustle and bustle of the city, nor the fear and strangeness of the hustle and bustle of the world outside, but only a deep sense of happiness and satisfaction. In the renovated and smooth village roads, searching for the memories of childhood in the distant era, I began to indulge in the sound of "let's click, let's click" that was stepped on, and a bright echo sounded in my ears, and I couldn't help but revel in it.
In spring, the stream is as green as blue. Walking around the village, but seeing the gurgling stream, there is a sound in the ears, adding a sense of poetry, which is fascinating; The pink walls and tiles, the fence of the courtyard, add a sense of painting, antique, give people reverie and infinite beauty.
Here, the tranquility and harmony of the countryside are deeply felt; Here, I deeply feel that after the harmony of the construction of the beautiful countryside, the hometown that I once thought would be lost in the dust of the years is more and more intense.
Talking to some villagers about the changes in Huatan Village over the years, on their smiling faces and their words of admiration, I further understood the connotation and significance of the construction of Hemei Village.
The author can't help but think that this is the testimony of the construction of Hemei Village, a land full of hope, and a village full of vitality and vitality.
The winding path leads to the secluded place, and the flowers and plants in the west mountain are deep. ”
Huatan Village is made up of pastorals, rivers, villages and mountains. Its west mountain is one of the scenic spots at the northern foot of Yandang Mountain.
In the renovated West Mountain, the narrow, winding and steep mountain road has disappeared without a trace, and what falls into sight is a spacious and flat modern road. The intersection is connected to the underwater line that runs through the village, and visitors can drive directly to the newly built and completed place of local folk worship in Xishanli, in front of the Dragon Ancestral Temple. As a result, although there is less of a "winding path" state of mind, and there is no longer the feeling of "smoke is not smoke, fog is not fog", but the characteristics of the green and scene blending in the West Mountain have not been lost, anyway, it is more and more charming. Walking in the western mountains, there are bursts of birdsong in your ears, and the fresh air is refreshing. Walking along the mountain road, it is as if you are in a fairyland, and your imagination is imagining.
As a unique corner of the scenery at the northern foot of Yandang Mountain, Xishan has its different stories and legends, which not only carries the ups and downs of the people of this side, has gone through the vicissitudes of the years, but also silently records the changes of one era after another, which is as beautiful as this.
Listening to the villagers of Huatan Village tell about the legends of natural attractions such as the long-flowing dragon head waterfall in the West Mountain, the crystal clear Longtan Pit water source, and the mysterious and bottomless gas hole, the topic points to the fact that the West Mountain is a hidden resort. While making people marvel at the miraculous work of nature and thanking God for giving nourishing the sweet spring of life to the villagers, they have more interest in exploring the mysteries of the West Mountain, and a little less impetuousness that is only a place of amusement.
Of course, the road reconstruction in Xishanli is only the beginning, according to incomplete understanding, Huatan Village will be Xishanli as a characteristic tourist place of Yandang Mountain for systematic planning and layout, in the coming days, closely combined with the in-depth construction of Hemei Village, will open up a new tourist resort at the northern foot of Yandang Mountain and a place for local economic development and construction in Xishanli.
The construction of Hemei Village originated in 2014, and China's Ministry of Agriculture launched the most beautiful leisure village and China's beautiful pastoral promotion activities nationwide.
The theme of the beautiful countryside starts from the specific contents of the new countryside, such as production and development, comfortable life, civilized rural customs, clean and tidy villages, and democratic management. It was not until October 2022 that the construction level of "beautiful villages" was upgraded to the big idea of the "beautiful countryside" strategy, and the new livable and workable countryside with both internal harmony and external ornamentation was implemented to promote the great development of construction.
Inhabitable. Yiye. and beauty. The three elements of Hemei Village, in fact, all revolve around "Hemei", whether it is livable or business-friendly, the foothold is Hemei, and Hemei runs through the whole process of rural construction.
Beautiful! At present, Huatan Village, from respecting nature, conforming to nature, protecting nature, focusing on micro-improvement, taking "environmental transformation and rural tourism" as an opportunity, in accordance with the principle of "can be seen, played, and participated", supporting and improving sewage treatment and garbage collection and transportation facilities based on distributed implementation, so as to form an ecological green chain integrating "eating, living, traveling, traveling, and entertainment", and make great efforts to retain the original style of the countryside. As a result, the humanistic feelings of Huatan Village and the essence of Hemei Village are excavated and integrated to the fullest!
According to the interview, in addition to making great efforts in the construction of hardware, Huatan Village has made every effort to promote the moral concept of "kindness and friendship" in the "internal" governance of Hemei Village, advocating the concepts of filial piety, mutual help, honesty and trustworthiness, law-abiding, and kindness to others, and writing a chapter of harmony and beauty in traditional virtues!
Some insightful villagers believe that in the planning and design of Hemei Village, in addition to the deep integration of the unique landscape scenery and strong cultural heritage in Huatan Village, the preliminary transformation is also closely combined with the characteristics of Xianxi, the "hometown of photography in Zhejiang".
Oh, yes! Majestic mountains, crystal clear rivers, dense forests and unique landscapes. In recent years, the natural beauty of Huatan Village has attracted many photographers, who have come to capture these magnificent scenery and create intoxicating photographs.
In addition to the natural beauty, in the humanities and culture, Huatan Village also has a strong historical legend, according to the older generation of oral tradition and "Yueqing Overseas Chinese Chronicles" records, in the Ming, Qing Dynasty, ** period, Huatan Village has Xu Dayou, Xu Anzhen and other celebrities. According to the available information, Xu Anzhen is the first person to stay in Xianxi in modern times. There are some traditional buildings, folk activities and cultural traditions preserved in the Qing and Min dynasties, which have precipitated the rich historical heritage of Huatan Village. These cultural elements have provided endless inspiration for the literati and artists.
During a day's field interview, the author listened attentively to the stories of the villagers of Huatan Village telling the stories that happened on this land; to record and share their joy and praise in writing; Witness the splendid style of rural construction with facts.
There is reason to believe that the beautiful countryside is just a good beginning, in the context of China's development, the future of the new countryside, there are more surprises and expectations, China's countryside will be a blessed land in the world!
