Yunshui Ballad, a film achievement of an ancient town

I was full of longing for the ancient town of Yunshuiryang, when a movie "Yunshuiryang", a romantic love story, with beautiful idyllic scenery, has left me the initial beautiful impression, and later looked at a lot of pictures of Yunshuiryang, Zhang Zhang beautiful, tulou, large banyan trees, pebble road, streams, waterwheel ...... seems to have about the beautiful countryside The first thing you need to do is to look at all of the pictures. But travel is like this, especially in the country, most of the time is to destroy the beautiful impression of the place in your mind, I can only say with some regret that I came too late. Yunshui Ballad is no longer the long-teaching village it was back then, but a tourist attraction named after a movie, and in addition to "Yunshui Ballad", there are several movies and TV dramas filmed here, such as "Looking for a Home Far Away" and "A Century of Canghai".
Now the ancient town of Yunshui Ballad is actually a historic old village called Changjiao, which is a famous overseas Chinese town in Zhangzhou, and also an ancient palisade leading from Changting Province (Longyan City) in western Fujian to Zhangzhou Province (Zhangzhou City) in southern Fujian. The most impressive thing is the banyan tree group consisting of 13 hundred and thousand year old banyans, I especially like the huge old trees and really like these places with history, so I am very longing for Yunshui Ballad. Perhaps as the saying goes, the higher the expectation the greater the disappointment, at this time the Yunshui Ballad is already a tourist attraction, charging 90 yuan for admission, a variety of children's inflatable toys placed in a disorderly manner by the creek, not much water in the creek in winter, the trees are not yet lush, inns and hotels stand, the main street is mostly cement houses, Yunshui Ballad is not what I thought it would be, which is of course to be expected.

































The sky outside the tulou is blue and high, the tulou is actually a walled city, people inside want to go out, but people outside pay to come in to visit and stay, lamenting. In fact, I envy those Tulou family, at least the hometown is so beautiful and nostalgic, the family's ancestral house is likely to remain a few hundred years, every time you go home to the place where you grew up to live and see. Unlike people like us, who were born and raised in small and medium-sized cities, our memories of our hometowns have been blurred, our former homes have long been demolished, and we can't even find the whole neighborhood back to its original shape. We have gone too fast and lost too many things, and even if we try to find them, we can never get them back.
