今天趁着出发的机会，赶早来这个济南英雄山古玩文化市场逛一圈。这可是在盗墓笔记里提名的全国“圈内”市场之一。如今卖古玩的大部分都迁走了，搬到市场外的门头房里。留在这里的多是些小商小贩，卖点瓜果蔬菜，生活用品。
但是还有一个传统，至今保留。那就是卖各种花鸟鱼虫，最有特色的就是“油葫芦”，这是一种老济南特色。店家把一只只油葫芦分别单独装在一个个小笼子里，搞得像展板一样摆在摊位前，叫声此起彼伏，好不壮观。有几个两鬓斑白的老大爷，坐在摊子前的马扎上，一只只的看，一只只的听，从这头到那头，漫长的上午就在这种寻找的乐趣中度过。
油葫芦有绿色的，有褐色的，都是家养的。我一度以为这个就是蝈蝈，但是在摊子前挑选的老大爷一脸严肃的说，油葫芦是油葫芦，蝈蝈是蝈蝈，不一样的，听这个叫声就不一样。大爷说话的时候，头微微后倾，双眼却始终不离开之前盯着的油葫芦。据说老济南人都好这个，在大冬天的时候，穿着大袄，将装着油葫芦的笼子夹在胳肢窝下，漫步在午后阳光明媚的大明湖畔，细细想来，端的是一种享受啊。
Wow! This is the Chinese tradition that you don't see or hear much anymore - birds, insects, street vendors.
I would love to see people showing off their birds, drink tea, play Chinese chess and exercise ...
This is also a clear sign of freedom in China that you will never see in the USA, a supposedly free country where the street vendors have been banned.
yeh,In China you can buy almost everything on the street vendors,especially some local snacks that you cannot sample in restaurants.
In the USA, the lawyers have sue many activities and products out of existence. If you have left over food, you can not give them to poor people or even homeless people for fear of being sued or be shut down by the heath police. There are countless examples, but this is just one.
Kids are not allowed to sell lemonade is another. Kids are not allowed to work due to child labor laws that claim to "protect" children.
我也去过，那里人不少
挺热闹
是啊，油葫芦和鸟叫个不停
经常去，很有趣的地方。
哈哈，济南人吗？
百度了下油葫芦，呃，以前一直以为是另一种蟑螂(⊙…⊙)
