You definitely can't go out in that blue-based outfit. After all, it's too cold, so a down jacket or coat is more practical. He chose this outfit to wear it when attending salons, parties, and other indoor activities in the future.
At various literary and art gatherings in Europe, let alone wearing blue, there is no problem even if you appear in emerald green.
It would be more interesting if it was a gathering of young people. Who doesn’t want to be the most handsome guy at the party?
After a night's rest, the next day we went straight to Lake Mälaren, which Britney mentioned.
Surrounding this lake are the main attractions in Stockholm. The City Hall, Parliament, and the Swedish Palace that Britney mentioned are all here. Chen Xing told the driver that it was Lake Mälaren. The first building he saw after arriving there that was completely different from the surrounding residential buildings was the Royal Palace of Sweden.
Western palaces have always been easy to identify. They usually have a history of more than two to three hundred years and are large in area. They are mainly in the Italian Baroque style, but they also have some Swedish details.
There are two stone lions on both sides of the steps at the main entrance. The gate is guarded by two guards wearing traditional Swedish army uniforms. With such guards, tourists can go up and stand next to them and take photos. A simple sticker is OK, but not Reach out and touch.
Will be yelled at.
Paris is like this anyway, and Sweden should be similar.
This palace was built next to a lake, which should be Lake Mälaren. The lake area is not large, but there are many waterbirds and wild ducks on it. There are several bridges in the middle that are closely connected to each other. The transportation is very convenient. The city hall can be seen across the lake.
Chen Xing stood by the lake and looked at the sparkling waves inside. People who got up early to exercise jogged past the lake. He always felt that this city was too peaceful.
Quietness and tranquility between people are not bad words.
For Chen Xing, he prefers this kind of environment. Sitting by such a lake and looking at the lake. Occasionally, boatmen carrying tourists pass by in small boats. Couples walk on the promenade by the lake, rubbing their ears and temples together. Runners are panting. , his heart seems to calm down.
There are fewer and fewer such attractions in China.
Being able to develop an attraction to such a large scale and with such beautiful buildings should have already become famous in China. As for all famous scenic spots, there is no time when there are few people, only when there are many people, and there are especially many people, unless you go to the frontier of the motherland like Chen Xing during the off-season.
Western Xinjiang is too remote. If it were not for the strong will to travel, almost no one would travel there.
Although Tibet is also remote, there is no need to say more about this place.
The white moonlight in the eyes of high school students and college students is the place of spiritual sustenance for people in society.
Although all kinds of deceptive news come out every year, people who go there are like crucian carp crossing the river, and there is no interruption all year round.
Chen Xing sat by the lake for an hour and basked in the sun for an hour, then got up and stretched and walked to the edge of the palace.
The Royal Palace of Sweden is said to have a Baroque architectural style, but its appearance is not bright and eye-catching. Instead, it looks a bit dim and does not stand out at all compared to the surrounding buildings. If you put several buildings by the lake, such as the City Hall, the Parliament Building and other buildings together, some people who travel less may not be able to tell who is the Royal Palace of Sweden.
Because this building has gone through hundreds of years, it looks very simple. It is surrounded by a square outer wall and two semi-circular arc-shaped corridors. There is a monument on the right side of the palace, which is a typical square pointed one. There is a stele building nearby, and there is also the Royal Armory Hall nearby, which displays a specimen of a horse, which was the king's vehicle in a certain period.
Good guy, if ancient China had this kind of technology, how many famous horses could be preserved?
What about the red rabbit, the jade lion that illuminates the night, the Lu and so on.
However, China pays great attention to burial. This technology may have been available for a long time. However, dead people or animals cannot be buried in the ground. This was considered a very vicious punishment at the time, so this technology of making specimens has not been handed down. .
When Chen Xing wanted to visit the palace, a burger shop selling hamburgers in the square outside the main entrance of the palace caught Chen Xing's attention.
It looks like a hamburger from a distance, but when you get closer, you can see that the words on the dining cart have Chinese characters.
What’s more, it’s Roujiamo!
There are quite a few people queuing up.
Chen Xing only had a piece of bread for breakfast, but he could still eat, so he quickly moved to the back of the queue.
This team moved forward very fast. Chen Xing had eaten Roujiamo before, and thought that the boss was very proficient in his craftsmanship, so the speed was very fast. This thought made Chen Xing look forward to the Roujiamo in a foreign country. , saliva is secreted gradually.
After staying in Europe for a long time, I realized that even Paris, the hometown of traditional food, is not so easy to get along with.
Chen Xing occasionally eats stew to improve his diet, but his daily staple food is actually the same as his breakfast today, which is bread.
Why do Westerners like to eat milk?
Because when eating bread, one or two pieces is okay, but if you eat too much, it will be really difficult to swallow, so you need milk to soften it slightly, so that you can have a complete meal.
If you eat like this often, although you won't feel like vomiting, you will really miss everything in China.
Especially the hometown skewers, mutton soup, hot pot, etc...
Although Roujiamo is not a Sichuan delicacy, it is still a Chinese delicacy. The aroma of the meat can be smelled by Chen Xing from such a distance.
Chen Xing doesn't know why the flavor of Roujiamo spreads as far as snail noodles. Maybe it has something to do with the sauce, right? Does it get a lot of steam when cooking? So it spreads further.
It's his turn.
Chen Xing saw the two people in the dining car wearing Chinese chef uniforms with Asian faces, so he said in Chinese: "Boss, please bring two of them."
"Okay, what kind of meat do you want?"
Chen Xing didn't know the difference, so he pointed at the one that smelled the best.
These meats are stewed in a large pot, which looks a bit like braising and stewing. There are people slaughtering the meat and adding various spices next to it. The boss who was talking to Chen Xing just cut a piece of steamed bun and put a lot of meat into it with a knife, which was more than half the amount of the white man in front of him.
"Thank you." Chen Xing went to get it and pay at the same time.
Forehead……
One is eighty Swedish krona?
Damn it, is there anything wrong with your charges?
Chen Xing really wanted to ask, but when he thought about the prices he learned about shopping yesterday, he seemed to know that living in Sweden was not easy, so he paid the bill silently. When he took the money, the boss asked: "Is your surname Chen? That traveler on the YouTube?"
Traveler is the label Chen Xing gave himself. People who know this label have seen him from Beep or YouTube.
"It's me, hello."
"You are welcome to travel to Sweden, haha, although I am not a local here either."
Chen Xing looked at the open door on the right side of the dining car and said, "Can I come in and chat?"
The boss shrugged his shoulders: "There's nothing wrong with it. It would be better if you could make a video of visiting the store together. Alas, it's hard to do business abroad."
Hearing his emotion, he looked at the eighty kronor meat buns.
Isn’t this easy?
I walked up from the back door of the car while eating the meat buns, and the smell of the meat inside became even stronger.
What is cooking in the pot should be beef.
Beef is generally eaten relatively tender here in Europe, and the so-called mature beef is spread from Europe to China.
In the past, Chinese people ate their food fully cooked.
Now the beef sold here is also fully cooked. It is not only fully cooked, but also overcooked. When you take a bite, the aroma of the meat mixed with the taste of various spices completely becomes an invisible and intangible aroma. Rushing into the brain, I can only feel one word at this time.
fragrant!
Seeing these foreigners eating meat buns in the square, wiping their mouths with paper while eating, and constantly showing thumbs up to the boss, Chen Xing was also a little proud.
The local food is still delicious.
Chen Xing feels that the meat he eats here tastes even better than the Roujiamo he had in Xi'an.
A long drought brings rain?
After eating, Chen Xing asked the little brother who was butchering the meat, "Handsome guy, are you from China too?"
He took a moment to glance at Chen Xing, showed a simple smile, and said: "Well, I have just been here for a year, and I followed my uncle to make some money back. Are you coming to this country to travel? I really envy you, I haven't Went out."
The owner of the roujiamo shop said: "You don't know the language here, and you don't know English. Where can you go? If you study hard, you won't come and work with me."
They all have anti-droplet plastic masks, so you don’t have to worry about the meat being unhygienic while talking.
Now it seems that everyone in the catering industry has to wear this.
Chen Xing said: "I am also lucky, and you are here, there is always a chance to go out."
Chinese people are diligent.
Chen Xing met many Chinese people who came to seek a living in Europe, and most of them opened Chinese restaurants. Their shops were the only places on many streets that were open at night with lights on. Usually many local shops in Europe were closed. The Chinese restaurant will also be open.
And I especially like to ask fellow villagers to help.
There is no way, labor in Europe is too expensive, it is better to ask fellow workers to help. The income is several times higher than that of working in China, but it is still cheaper than hiring Europeans or international students.
What can a few Chinese people you meet abroad talk about?
Of course it's a domestic matter.
While chatting, Chen Xing wanted to eat Chinese food and asked: "Boss, where is the best Chinese restaurant in Sweden?"
"There are many Chinese restaurants in Sweden, everywhere."
The boss's chat did not affect the movements of his hands at all. After thinking about it, he recommended two places to Chen Xing.
"There is a restaurant called Jiu Ge Sichuan cuisine on the small island next to Gothenburg. It is opened by you people from Sichuan Province. It serves Sichuan cuisine. The other one, um, the other one also has Sichuan cuisine. People on the Internet here in Sweden say that it is the best in Sweden. Best Chinese restaurant.”
Chen Xing became interested and asked, "Where is it?"
"It's a bit far. You have to take a train to a small city called Svidala. I heard that you can see this store when you get off the train. I haven't been there, so I don't know, but I have met their boss. , he is a Northeasterner who is less than 40 years old and very cheerful."
"A Sichuan restaurant opened by Northeasterners? The best in Sweden?"
"Haha, I'm also curious. If you try it, be sure to come back and tell me what it tastes like, or you can also record a video of the store visit?"
Post a video with your mouth open and shut, are you urging for an update?
Chen Xing rolled his eyes.
We’re not going to talk about work today, we’re just going to talk about food.
Chen Xing left quickly. The purpose of his visit today was not forgotten. He was not here to reminisce about his hometown with his fellow villagers. He wanted to see the difference between the Swedish palace and Paris.
Buy a ticket to enter the palace.
The royal family under the constitutional monarchy also spared no effort to make money. If Chen Xing inherited such a family environment, he would probably not be able to make his living place public for outsiders to visit. He felt uncomfortable.
There are some exquisite reliefs and three-dimensional sculptures in the corridors of the palace, and the large open space is paved with cobblestones. There is a road on all sides that leads to the outside of the palace, and there are also gates. When he was sitting and resting by the lake just now, he saw the gate on the side near the lake.
There are also guards guarding it, but it's not as lively as the front.
The functions near each gate are also different.
The south gate is the church and the state hall, and the north gate is the banquet hall. In the past, nobles probably drove carriages from that road to attend banquets in the palace. The main body of the palace is a three-story building with a total of more than 600 rooms. The architecture is still far behind the Palace of Versailles.
But each style has its own merits.
Chen Xing commented in his mind on the size of the two palaces, and then said something in his mind.
Why compare the size of the palace? It's bigger than his doghouse anyway. He really wants to have a house with this size. Let's not talk about the indoors. It's not good to have too many rooms. He's scared to sleep at night, but Chen Xing likes the yard outside very much.
European gardens and Chinese gardens each have their own merits, and Chen Xing thinks they are both very beautiful.
If possible, Chen Xing really wants to build a European-style garden in the front and a Chinese courtyard in the backyard, with rockeries and flowing water. It is exciting to think about it.
The doors of the rooms available for visit were all open, and Chen Xing did not dare to touch those rooms with closed doors.
One of the rooms, which looked like a study, attracted Chen Xing, a literary young man.
It is filled with books and miscellaneous items, as well as some old photos of the royal family in the old era, which is very reminiscent of the European royal retro. There is also a very special place, which is a small living room with a portrait of the current Queen Silvia of Sweden. The decoration style is completely different from the rooms in the palace, and it is not ancient at all.
The colors are bright and vivid, with a Nordic modern home style. There are glass wine cabinets and so on. The lighting is brighter than other rooms and there is plenty of light. It seems that Sylvia should choose the decoration in the future. This room makes A touch of bright color stands out inside the slightly dark Internet celebrity.
However, it seems that the queen does not live here daily, it should be just a rest room for her.
If you continue walking, you can still see the portraits of Swedish kings and queens in the past, which gave Chen Xing, who had no idea about Sweden, a rough understanding of the history of the royal family.
Apart from the fact that the names of the royal family are repeated too much, making it difficult to remember their names and appearance clearly, visiting the royal palace in Sweden is indeed quite interesting.
On one side are modern tourists carrying cameras and mobile phones, and on the other side are gentlemen, ladies and palace guards wearing traditional palace costumes, which is full of the feeling of traveling through time and space.
