Weekend relaxation at Niutoushan Railway Station.

Time to relax on the weekend, with a focus on emptying your mind and relaxing. Step on the gas and go! Today's outing is to the railway coffee shop in Niutoushan Village, Xinhang Town, Guangde County, Xuancheng City, Anhui Province! I've been to Xuancheng four or five times, but I still feel like I haven't been there. There are so many places to visit. This place is close to home, just over an hour's drive away. The traffic is good, and the mountains are faintly visible in the distance. After getting off the highway, I felt like I was in a steel jungle, with various pipes twisting and turning, crisscrossing, sometimes towering into the clouds, sometimes hovering overhead. I drove along the mysterious 3D maze for more than ten minutes, following the clear road signs, and a large factory area appeared in front of me, with its former glory still faintly visible. This is the headquarters of the Changguang Coal Mine in Zhejiang Province. Coal mines are scarce in Jiangnan. After liberation, this area was reformed into a situation where "the surface is managed by Anhui, and the underground is mined by Zhejiang" through coordination. The ten-mile mining area is collectively known as the "Changguang Coal Mine." This became an "enclave" of Zhejiang Province in Anhui, providing important energy support for the industrial development of Zhejiang Province. In 2019, this 50-year-old glory officially withdrew from the stage of history, and only four tracks silently guarded the memory. I parked the car with mixed feelings, and the overgrown vegetation covered the road. The owner used haystacks to build a welcoming entrance, adding a touch of artistic atmosphere to the desolation. Get a coupon at the entrance: Memories flood back, even though I've only heard about the era of meal tickets and grain tickets... A few steps down, there is a dilapidated train station. The coal transport tracks come into view, and the owner has decorated them with iron barrels and wood, creating various shapes, and a warm track appears. If it could burn, the bonfire on the track would be even more interesting. Cross the tracks, and there are a few rows of small camping stools and tables, with cozy tablecloths exuding a lazy charm. A small bar currently only serves coffee and pizza. The bathroom at the back is crowded but not unpleasant. The cleaning lady is very diligent, constantly tidying up. (Personal quirk: I have a persistent desire to experience the bathroom in every store.) Enjoy the coffee with a wild feel, take industrial dark-style photos, relax without any worries, hide in the time tunnel of the coal warehouse, and immerse yourself in a world where industry and art intersect.
