🚣♂️ Along the Xiao River, it feels like traveling through a thousand years. Walking in the poetic land under the pen of Liu Zongyuan, Pingzhou Academy is a historical relic of the four major academies in Hunan, like a quiet literary hall, bathed in a long history, as if you can hear the low chant of the Xiao Xiang night rain. 📜🌙
🛥️ Take a boat up, pass through the ancient city of Lingling under the Dongfeng Bridge, come to Xiakedu, the floating bridge in the rain and the Xiao River reflect each other, like a classical landscape painting, intoxicating. ⛵️🌧️
🏞️ Chaoyang Rock, Liu Zi fishing alone in the cold river snow, along the Xiao River, the rock with many inscriptions records the vicissitudes of a thousand years, as if time is frozen here. 🌄📜
🏔️ Xiangling Mountain is like a watcher, standing tall on the bank of the Xiao River, the huge rocks in the river witness countless stories about Xiao Xiang, walking through the floating bridge of Xiangling Mountain Village, feeling the precipitation of a long history, as if in the ideal country under the southern sky. 🏞️📖
On this mysterious and distant land, the soul of Lingling wakes up in the cold river and dusk rain, and the heart with sorrow and resentment pursues the open-minded realm between the mountains and rivers. Everyone who has walked through Lingling will suddenly become enlightened in the melodious Eina sound, feeling the deep affection of Xiao Xiang. 🌿🌧️
