Second stop: Qianwei Confucian Temple

The Qianwei Confucian Temple was founded in the Northern Song Dynasty and rebuilt in the fourth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, with a history of more than 600 years.

The Qianwei Confucian Temple has a complete structure and a grand scale, especially the stone carving and carving skills are very exquisite, and its grand palace-style ancient buildings in the Ming and Qing dynasties are unique.

The Dacheng Gate roof of the Qianwei Confucian Temple "Tianqi Wenyun" is unique in China, and the ancient Italian architect Kakara applauded; The Dacheng Hall is also unique in Sichuan; 160 bat guardrails of different shapes on the nine platforms are carved with stone carvings; A side door is added next to the sanctuary and the Xianguan to connect with the ceremonial gate and the righteous road, separating the sacrificial ceremony from the usual worship, and the idea is ingenious; According to the wall book "Wan Ren Palace Wall" is different from the "Shu Ren Palace Wall" of other Confucian temples, it is said that the text was written by a detainee and then released, and it became a good story for a while.

Now the Confucian temples everywhere have become places where everyone prays for the blessings of the students, and the Qianwei Confucian Temple is no exception, and the front of the hall is also full of red ribbons, each ribbon carries a blessing for the students, hoping that they can make academic progress and be admitted to the ideal university, although learning needs to rely on their own encouragement, but everyone's deep blessings are also indispensable.

The third stop: Jiayang Train

Jiayang train is naturally the highlight of Qianwei travel, especially in March every year, which can be said to be the most beautiful time, so there are a lot of tourists, so you must do a good job in advance to better enjoy the flower viewing trip.

Jiayang Train, founded in 1958, has a total length of 19.8 kilometers and a gauge of 762mm, which is one of the few passenger steam trains in China that is still in normal operation. It has the reputation of "living fossil of the industrial revolution" and "out-of-print landscape of the industrial revolution". Of course, in addition, the reputation of the Jiayang train is outside, but also because it will pass through a large area of rape flower fields along the way, and the steaming train will pass through the golden rape flower fields, which is also unique in China.

It is strongly recommended to rush to the starting station of the Jiayang train early in the morning - Yuejin Station, because many people depart from Chengdu in the morning, and it is almost noon to Jiayang, so there are relatively not so many people on the morning train, but no matter which train you take, you must book in advance, and the train tickets during the rapeseed flower blooming period are very tight.

The first stop of the train is "Bee Rock", where there will be a stop but tourists cannot get off, here is the "herringbone" U-turn method invented by Mr. Zhan Tianyou, after changing the direction of the train, it goes in another direction. The design of the "herringbone" U-turn also solves the problem of insufficient traction and insufficient turning radius of locomotives with large slopes, and the need to erect bridges.

The second stop is the most famous Caiziba Station, which is also the most visible place on the Internet, where tourists can get off the bus, climb up a hillside, and stand on the hillside to watch the steam train pass through the rapeseed flower fields. After tourists get off the train, the train will retreat to the starting point of the C-turn, then spray the steam to the maximum and start moving slowly, which is the best time to take photos or record videos.

ps: It must be noted here that the time of the train show is very short, it is recommended to get off the train as soon as possible after the train stops, climb to the hillside, occupy the best point, it is best to cooperate with the friends who pass by, some people take pictures, some people record videos, because the opportunity is only once, fleeting.

The third stop is Liangshuituo, where the train will perform another performance, using optical phenomena to let everyone see the beautiful rainbow.When sunlight hits water droplets, they are incident at different angles at the same time, and they are also reflected at different angles within the water droplets. Among them, the reflection of 40-42 degrees is the strongest, forming the rainbow that people see. The train forms water droplets by spraying steam, and when people stand on the Liangshuituo sightseeing platform, they can see the artificial train steam rainbow when they form a certain angle with the strong sun's rays.

ps: The best place to shoot a rainbow is in the middle of the stands, it is recommended to record a video, you can see the whole process of the rainbow from scratch to something, which is very spectacular.

The final stop is Bajiaogou, Bagou Ancient Town is the mining area of Jiayang in the 30s and 80s of the last century, but also the cradle of Jiayang, the building beans here are very old, walking in front of the ancient town will emerge the lively scene of the mining area many years ago, the uncles and aunts of that era, come here are extremely excited and excited, because of their youth in that era, who will not miss their youth?

In addition to feeling the prosperity of the mining area back then, Bagou Ancient Town is also a resting place in this tour, where there are many restaurants where you can taste local food. After resting, you can continue to set off

If you want to feel the real mining area, you can also go deeper to Huangcunjing to take a look, put on a helmet and really go down to the place where the miners work, although you can't really empathize with it, You can still get a rough idea of the hard work of the past!

Huangcunjing, an extension of the No. 1 mine of Jiayang Coal Mine, is also the terminus of the train. From the 30s to the 80s of the last century, the Jiayang Coal Mine mined tens of millions of tons of coal from here, which not only delivered a lot of valuable energy to the socialist construction in the early days of the founding of New China, but also successively supported more than 3,000 local families and solved the problem of food and clothing for more than 30,000 people.
