Suzhou Shengze Xianshen Temple Traffic Guide: Taxi:

Starting price 10 yuan (3km). After 3 kilometers, the unit price per kilometer is 1.8 yuan, and after 5 kilometers, 50% idle driving fee will be charged. The 5-minute waiting time is free. If it exceeds 5 minutes, every 5 minutes is equivalent to 1 km. After 23: 00, the fare (starting price) will rise by 30%.

Bus:

One-way fare for ordinary cars 1 yuan, and one-way fare for air-conditioned cars in 2 yuan. Most of them are unmanned ticketing cars. Some suburban routes in Suzhou implement "flop fares", that is, the fares are different throughout the journey. There is a sign on the boarding gate, which indicates the fare of this station, and it was turned over by the driver on the way, hence the name.

Human tricycles:

Some scenic spots in Suzhou are in the alley, so the car can't reach the door directly. At this time, tricycle is the best means of transportation. The starting price of tricycles is 2 yuan, with an additional 2 yuan per kilometer, and 5 yuan per person per hour when chartered.

Reminder: Suzhou does not have a perfect tricycle industry standard, so you should negotiate the price with the driver before getting on the bus to avoid being fooled.

Bicycle:

Suzhou has many scenic spots. Riding a bicycle through the streets and alleys, visiting the ancient times and exploring the secluded places, you will definitely indulge in the artistic conception of "a small bridge with flowing water". There are many car rental agencies in Pingmen Bridge on the east side of the railway station. The approximate price is: 2 yuan within 4 hours, 3 yuan within 5-6 hours, and 5 yuan for one day. I need an ID card and a deposit.

There is a fairy silkworm temple in shengze town, Wujiang City, Jiangsu Province, which is dedicated to Lei Zu as a public shrine for the ancestors of the silk industry. "Xiaoman" in the 24 solar terms is the busiest time in Xianshen Temple, and there is Xiaoman Opera, which is still the case.

In ancient times, a beautiful and kind girl was born in a family in Lian Cunshan, Xiling (now Yanting County, Sichuan Province). When the girl grows up, she will go out to collect wild fruits every day to support her frail parents. She is not afraid of hardship or fatigue. When the wild fruits in the vicinity were finished, she waded to the distant place to pick them and came home late every day. Soon, the wild fruits in the distance are all picked. What should I do to support my parents? The hardships of life made the girl cry sadly under a mulberry tree. The crying was so sad and desolate that birds and animals near and far were moved to tears. The crying shook the earth. When the Jade Emperor looked down, he saw a filial daughter of 14 or 15 years old crying her eyes out, showing great mercy, knocking the evil fairy "Ma Tau Niang" down to earth and turning it into a worm that ate mulberry leaves and spun silk. Matou Niang saw the girl's sad appearance, so she dropped the mulberry seeds in her mouth, and the girl licked her mouth sour and sweet. After eating a little, I felt nothing unusual, so I took a lot home for my parents to eat. After eating, the old man's spirit is getting better every day.

On a sunny summer day, the girl found that the insects on the tree kept spinning and cocooning. The color reflection produced by sunlight is very beautiful. Out of curiosity, the girl put one in her mouth and pulled it out by hand. This kind of silk is elastic. She just weaves a small piece of silk into a big piece like a bug and puts it on her parents. It's cool when it's hot, and it's warm when it's warm in winter, so she named the bug silkworm and took it home to feed it. After a long period of experience, the girl completely mastered the production law of silkworm and the skill of reeling and weaving, and passed it on to the local people without reservation. Since then, people have ended the primitive clothing of "eating and drinking blood, clothes and feathers" and entered the civilized society of embroidered clothes.

According to historical records, Lei Zu was the princess of the Yellow Emperor. She first domesticated silkworms and started the silk industry, and was known as the "First Silkworm Queen". When Lei Zu was appointed as the chief of Xiling tribe and the smart leader of Xishu, he developed agriculture, mulberry, economy and trade, and managed the country well, which was deeply loved by the people. After she became a princess with the Yellow Emperor, she was "determined to farm mulberry, dress legally, advocate marriage, respect etiquette and build a country in the palace", joined forces with Emperor Yan, defeated Chiyou and unified China, and was honored as "the mother of all nations" from now on.

Lei Zu died in Hengshan Mountain with the Yellow Emperor's southern tour, and was buried in his hometown Qinglong Mountain in Yanting County according to his will. Lei Zu was praised by later generations as the founder of sericulture and silk harvesting in China. According to Sui Shu? According to etiquette records, she was honored as the first silkworm in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. The Northern Song Dynasty's Notes on the Mirror records: "The daughter of Xiling family, the princess of Emperor Lei Zu, began to teach people to raise silkworms and treat cocoons for clothes." "History of Taoism" systematized the sericulture and silk picking invented by Lei Zu, saying that Xiling family advised sericulture and egg rearing, and personally picked mulberry and silk making, thus creating a silk weaving career. From then on, Lei Zu was regarded as the ancestor of sericulture and silk collection of ancient working women, and was regarded as the silkworm god by the ancient Yellow Emperor. In the future, whenever mulberry is planted and silkworms are raised, people will set up an altar to worship the early silkworms, in order to make the weather good and the silkworms fat. At the same time, it is also used to pay homage to the great invention of Lei Zu.
