Guiyang | A race against time during a business trip

Guiyang, this is my second business trip here, and both times I haven't had the chance to deeply experience the scenery of this city. I checked the surrounding landscape at the work site, and although it was just a fleeting glimpse, it has deeply attracted me. I hope the work goes smoothly, to secure this project, and I will definitely take the time to feel the depth of beauty of this city. Time was limited, and by the time I arrived it was nearly nine o'clock at night, so I went to see the Jiaxiu Tower, which I didn't have time to visit the first time. The sense of solidity of the ancient architecture under the lights is really something that cannot be conveyed by a phone, the weather was a bit chilly, with fine rain mixed with tiny ice pellets hitting my face. The riverside lights and scenery were beautiful, with many homestays built along the river. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any on Ctrip, but the one I booked, 'One Flower One Stay', was not bad, although it was a little distance from the river. The hotel was in a small alley, with one or two budget hotels and hourly rooms nearby, and you had to walk up two flights of stairs. The external environment was a bit of a letdown, but the interior atmosphere and the hotel living experience were still a bit of a surprise. At half past ten at night, I wanted to order takeout, but seeing that the roadside shop was still open and people were eating, I went in and ordered a dish and a soup. The small shop wasn't big, with only five small tables, and seemed to be run by a family of three. After ordering, I heard the clanging of cooking from the kitchen. A plate of shredded potatoes and a bowl of sour cabbage and red bean soup, this kind of freshly made and stir-fried dish, with the unique aroma of the kitchen, was too delicious! With three hours left before heading to the airport, I hurried to the famous internet-famous Qingyun Market, pinched my nose to verify the Guizhou people's attribute, couldn't chew the fishy-smelling Houttuynia cordata, but found it acceptable as a drink. This is a district that belongs to the night, unfortunately, the sky was not yet dim, and I was already on my way back. The journey's scenery had shocks, surprises, and also the experience of a gentle and long-lasting flow. Guiyang, wait for me to come again!
