An essay on the customs of Tongshan, my hometown.
In southeastern Hubei, there is a place with a long history and culture, beautiful mountains and rivers, rich products and developed humanities. That's my hometown-Tongshan County, Xianning. I love my hometown. Hearing is false, seeing is true, or I'll take you to your hometown as a guest! Tongshan, my hometown, is the site of Chu State during the Warring States Period. It can be called eighteen bends of mountain road. Rhododendrons are everywhere all year round. Taiping Mountain, a famous Taoist mountain in the east, Jiugong Mountain, a scenic spot in the south, Baikong Mountain in the west and Forest Park in the north. Among them, Jiugong Mountain has a well-preserved ancient tomb, which is one of the six national scenic spots in Hubei Province. The scenery is strange and beautiful. If you are tired of traveling in the mountains, come and see the water! I often hear old people say that the soul of Tongshan lies in the mountain, and the spirituality of Tongshan lies in the water. When I come to my hometown, if I don't take a dip in Xianning Hot Springs, it's like going to Beijing without climbing the Great Wall and going to Xi without seeing the Terracotta Warriors and Horses. The hot springs in our hometown have a natural water temperature of about 50 degrees and 72 pools. The water in ChristianRandPhillips pond is still fragrant! Often soaking in this natural hot spring can not only relieve people's fatigue, but also treat skin diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, gastrointestinal diseases and so on. It's amazing! As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for people. You must be hungry after all these places? Never mind, there are many famous foods waiting for you in my hometown! There are smooth vermicelli, crisp mountain bamboo shoots, delicate small twist and fragrant tea fragrance. Of course, the most important specialty is bacon. Every family in my hometown has to kill at least one big fat pig every year, pickle it and hang it on the stove, and then smoke the pork for a whole year to prepare for the next year. The natural smell of meat comes from a distance, which makes your mouth water and makes you want to swallow it at once. Tired of eating and playing, lying in bed at night and leafing through Tongshan county annals, you will find that there are many historical facts that enrich the connotation of your hometown. 1645, Li Chuangwang Li Zicheng, the leader of the peasant uprising in the late Ming Dynasty, was hunted down in Jiugong Mountain, and Wang Chuang Mausoleum built by later generations was his mausoleum. During the revolutionary war years, Tongshan successively established seven Soviet areas, and martyrs such as Cheng Ziying and Chen Zhong all gave their lives for the revolution. This is my lovely hometown. Will you visit my hometown? I believe you will fall in love with my hometown as I do.
