来坊茨小镇，细数岁月过往

杨眉

因為一部剧，爱上一座城。

一条铁路，交织芸芸众生，一座“铁路大院”，演绎世间百态。近期，年代大剧《南来北往》圆满收官，剧中历史与现代交融的实景成全了这部剧的文化底蕴，而《南来北往》也带火了取景地——潍坊市坊子区坊茨小镇。小镇以其原汁原味的老街和丰富的历史文化内涵，成为众多游客争相打卡的新晋网红地，带动了新一代年轻人对这片土地的青睐。

人们都说，世上没有无缘无故的热爱。坊茨小镇成为大家的“心头好”，自然是源于这个百年小镇独特的魅力和韵味。走进小镇，166处德日式建筑，万和楼、刘氏老宅等民居，德建火车站、胶济铁路和机车转盘等组成的潍坊铁路工业廊道，德建矿井、采煤巷道等炭矿遗址……充满年代感的建筑和设施逐次映入眼帘，仿佛细数着岁月过往。

坊茨小镇，以胶济铁路坊子段为中轴线向两侧发展，曾经是德国和日本的殖民地区。因煤矿而生、因铁路而兴的坊茨小镇，是中国第一个真正意义上的工矿业小镇、山东近现代工业发展最早的遗迹之一，也是潍坊近现代工业的发源地。

由于煤矿采空、铁路改道等历史原因，上世纪90年代，坊子老区逐渐沉寂，失去了往日的繁华，但其中散落着的大量德日建筑，涵盖军事、外交、铁路、煤炭、工业、生活等多个领域，包括领事馆、司令部、礼堂、水厂、火车站、银行等，具有很高的文物价值、历史价值、建筑艺术价值和旅游开发价值。

为了保护象征着潍坊近代工业文明进步的百年建筑，也为了唤醒人们对历史的认知，2008年，坊子区正式启动德日建筑群保护开发工程，倾心打造欧式风情生态小镇，并将该片区命名为“坊茨小镇”。小镇成功打造了炭矿遗址文化园、坊茨美术馆、德国别墅区、坊茨展览馆、潍坊一战华工纪念馆、坊子区博物馆等项目，开展了坊茨论坛、中国雕塑展、坊茨艺术沙龙、赋彩潍坊、醉美坊画等文化艺术活动，先后被评为山东省爱国主义教育基地、全国重点文物保护单位、首批省级历史文化街区、国家AAA级旅游景区。

如今，坊茨小镇迎来了一批又一批的游客，他们中有的漫步于枕木铺设的铁道上，感受“旧”时光；有的特地打卡“国营第一商店”，体验“剧”时光；有的则守在铁路旁“偶遇”拉着汽笛的内燃机车，或者看铁路工作人员手摇老式道口杆封闭道路……来坊茨小镇，坊子煤矿百余年的历史沧桑、东西方文化在工业建筑上的交融与碰撞、城市在时代变迁中的坚守与传承，这些都会与你撞个满怀。
