Silverfish is a special product of Xiandao Lake, usually local fishermen catch it and dry it themselves, this small and transparent fish can only survive in particularly good water quality.

There are not many restaurants on the island, they are expensive and the food is average. There is a corridor on the way back from Xihu Gallery, with mountains and water, and the price is also very reasonable.

The restaurants on Xianlong Island are relatively expensive, I wanted to go ashore and have a good meal, but I couldn’t resist the little princess’s hunger. Perhaps everyone was really hungry, they devoured the food like a whirlwind, and the food was wiped out.

Exit the expressway from the S317 exit, exit Shuangxi toll station, toll is 60 yuan. After entering the provincial road, the scenery is prominent. On both sides of the road, green trees surround the mountains, and golden rice fields stretch as far as the eye can see.

In Wangying Village near Xiandao Lake, there are many Hui-style buildings. Hui-style residences have high, enclosed walls, and appear staggered due to the design of the horse-head walls. From a high point of view, in the villages where people gather, the high and low horse-head walls give people a sense of “thousands of horses galloping” visually, and also metaphorically that the whole clan is thriving and prosperous.

The high horse-head wall can serve as a fire barrier, so the horse-head wall is also called the “fire wall”. The horse-head walls are staggered in height, generally in two or three layers, and for larger residences, because they have front and back halls, the number of layers of the horse-head walls can be as many as five, commonly known as “five peaks facing the sky”.

The office building of the tourist reception center also has a shadow of Hui-style architecture.

Ancestral halls are special places for ordinary people to worship their ancestors, hold meetings, and hold weddings and funerals. Later, they also developed into schools or private schools. At the same time, some ancestral halls also have unique stage buildings. Think about some small towns in Europe, one unremarkable castle, one dark house, a history of hundreds or thousands of years, while our historical legacy, is either being moved or developed. History has truly become the product of schools and libraries, I really hope that these ancestral halls with distinct characteristics can be preserved intact.

As we approached Xiandao Lake, we passed a high slope, and the beautiful scenery of mountains and water came into view. Everyone stopped to admire the view, and the princess and prince were having a good time. A grasshopper crossing the road aroused everyone’s interest…
