Decision
By surprise, but it has become a reality.
The fact is that the initial 15 days to go to the Yunnan-Tibet program and budget is very interested in, but never thought really go. Because the imagination of Tibet is nothing but blue sky and white clouds, famine Ridge plateau, grassland cattle and sheep, minority ......咱an early age not to look at these growing up? There need to specially from another place to do it again? Also because of the recent silver scarcity (for this reason is more important, Zhejiang landscape long similar,咱do not they go to several back: P). However, Yunnan is always longing for, the legend of the Sichuan-Tibet line again in the end how difficult it away? Think, think can always bar. After a sudden have a friend that there two weeks leave, want to go to Yunnan, looking for people, a matter of course recommended in this plan: I want to go to go, but can not (in fact, most of them want to go anywhere, I can not go), you first look at Kan Ba. Friends 1 to vigor: the want to go to Why do not呀? Go along, go along! No money? I take you 10000 total enough, right? Anyway, since you are not yet (Gaode I feel like I kinda have a skill, so much confidence in me, I do not know do not have to play). Listen to more generous attempts! But then, this guy actually Britain dent in my equipment and bought a lot for her to understand her situation and the equipment needed to get tickets soon, when suddenly told me that she not go, because suddenly decided to test MBA. Go to hell! The Eye of the MBA! Really have such a big attraction? Make a very good person willing to eat his words! I can not do. However, over-spending a lot of this trip makes me extremely painful.
September 21, Shanghai - Kunming
Tickets in the morning 8:10 Pudong airport, and we all know, the Pudong airport in Pudong, the easternmost, and I live in Puxi to the west, to the Pudong airport, a taxi, then at least一百四五十Da-Yuan, pain ah! Airport buses, do not know if there is not so early, the afternoon before departure of a commercial building in the East entrance to see an airport, three-wire plug at the junction, despite the rules of the road running past upturned neck were standing on the street (that car is too high) asked a long time, finally aware of the situation.
The day before, or do not trust, fear to go out early morning, less than a taxi is called, will be of a public (to the airport to the first three lines of the station but also a starting fee). Volkswagen time stopped at 5:40 downstairs to get off at South Wanping have asked individuals is not up to the airport, was originally pulled a carpool, and one 30 (40? Forgotten) yuan, the speed of the airport bus did not grasp the Therefore, on the last car.
6:00, it was sunrise when the car in the outer line where speeding toward the sun rises on both sides, is a plain green belt agricultural land, in front of the dawn from the clouds in the sky disclosed, Phi gold and silver clouds heartily stretch with their own take advantage of the city has not yet regained consciousness there is no noise when the lack of attention to them. In fact, the early morning sunrise in Shanghai is also very beautiful, but there are few people able to enjoy her?
A huge plane only nine passengers. There is a complaint heard the plane: It's that some people still refuse to discount! China Eastern Airlines aircraft, Ms. while stocks last meal, the entire crew (except, of course the driver) in relation to both first-class cabin to sleep. Westward across the plane in Shanghai Hongqiao Airport found that the original so small.
10:45 went to Kunming in the afternoon, people came to Qi had.
Kunming and almost all the country's big cities, there is nothing mind stroll.
After, FB, catch a ride to Lijiang.
September 22, Lijiang
Before the two sides were busy Monday at work to cope with things (strange, a decision to emerge out on the huge number of things to do, annoying) side of the equipment ready to go out what啦啦, and little sleep each day, aircraft Also so early is simply an ordeal.
7:00 or 8:00, drowsily underground the car, followed them to find the ancient city to turn a half-circle to find to live in the inn. Washed after a round in fact wanted to sleep, think of the petty bourgeoisie in this world-famous ancient city could only stay one day, in any case taste taste. In fact, the day turned to places that are not remember the (so come out at night to listen to actually finish at Naxi ancient music has lost her way, saying that getting lost is still good, in fact, simply do not know the road). Just remember, there are many beautiful places and things are perfect, warm and romantic scenes prospered, elegant beautiful gardens, clean ancient trails, clear streams, such as silk, the ancient house on the river colorful patterns, street store a variety of exquisite handicrafts, ethnic clothing and fashion T-shirts, visiting the bar on the road sitting inside all the people here are polite, gentle and polite, carefree.
I feel here like a Grand View Garden, has a delicate, perfect things and life, not so true, reminds me of A Doll's House. All seem to have managed to create a feeling. In contrast, I have no doubt prefer to Lhasa, natural, rough, wanton, diverse, conflict, sacred.
The afternoon, and finally barely, and went back to sleep, during which Arabic to. Drink tea in the courtyard before dinner, a daze, critically Main mahjong.
Night to listen to well-known Naxi Ancient Music and Xuan Ke's nothing more than taking martial arts. Can be considered informative, sensible life is really long, really you can go through a lot, and many common sense is right or wrong is often difficult to determine. After getting lost, after being claimed, after a while could not help but he went on the net, and laral, straw chat a while days, left a front ashtray full of cigarette butts and a few empty bottles of the shadow, so to see this picture of people think those are my doing, so be sure to declare this: no, no of course not! ! !
September 23, Lijiang - Tiger jump - Zhongdian
Also get up 5:00 in the morning, the pain died.
Look at expanding the ranks together, four men and six women, two small packets of bread, Mo Zhehei left the day did not notice a large water wheel (also regarded as a sign of the ancient city of Lijiang bar), left Lijiang, Zhongdian bound. From here through the next place I was two weeks before the names are only a sketchy understanding of the (shame! Has always been a friend to remind the trip before you go to a better understanding of the Office of the situation, attractions, routes, etc., may I always do not like to do such a thing because I thought about things too clearly Zaiqu is not fun, so did most of the journey is to find the control: the ah, where indeed there is such a stone, there is no information where it seems to say that store呀... Of course, I know that my thoughts quite right, the situation will be clear about the journey to avoid a lot of trouble to bring many benefits, but my travel plans is: What kind of run into any bar. There are also too lazy to understand the factors that:) , but my luck seems quite good, with a few to go all masters, I speak what the heart呀: P.
Drove for a long time, is not yet dawn. The Yangtze River to the first bend is, in fact, is the subject of the Jinsha River on the map, but the locals are accustomed to calling the Yangtze River, may have more pride in bar. Yellow river, and everyone Hun Hun (and evidently no woke up), took a few pictures on the last car to drive to the Shek Kwu went to eat breakfast.
Breakfast very rich, because it has access to Tibetan areas, so the table with the butter tea, I always imagine what kind of butter tea, the taste of a surprise, and drinking the tea used to taste essentially the same, much rest assured that along the way has its , afraid what? such as rice during the period, to the riverside stroll, the spirit of Arabic, and others very good, also the river had some morning exercise.
10:00, to the famous Tiger Leaping Gorge. My car was parked at the door, people walking into. Tiger jump on this impression is: there are a lot of yellow water vortex, evidently more dangerous, in which most will close by to go swimming. On both sides of the rock enough beautiful, do not know whether anyone here tried rock climbing? Tiger jumping stone to this, I do not use the word to describe the most appropriate surging. We front of the surging waves and the piece of yellow words Monument to kill some mad film, and then he plans to stroll around in small groups back.
At noon, the bridge for lunch. Rice, etc. During the girls rushed out to buy fruit (in this case no one has been willing to close the coins), because we feel that the way back I am afraid there will be no such prosperity, while in fact, up to Lhasa along the way that we have a fried tomato eggs to eat, with the effervescent tablets seem to pour only used two in Lijiang. Boys were staring at the past the national costumes of JJMMDMNN, an opportunity to shoot.
3:00, to Zhongdian, the driver took us to the Living Buddha home, that house is wood, very splendid elegant, all the doors and windows, furniture and all have beautiful wood composition, it is amazing. To the second floor is even more exaggerated, I did feel shock, rapid heartbeat, eyes, confusion, and Liu strange, feminine land is estimated that Meisha different, the only difference is panic among the out his camera to frightened to ask a We can not film, watching people Meisha reflect on the Old and the Kuangpai number of copies printed result unfortunately is not very good, depressed.
Later moved to breast hippopotamus, or shop to live, because the price twice cheaper. Arabic and depressed, and comes back is also a vigor that the next time to themselves, we must stay there. And I can see very satisfied.
With regard to breast Hippo Shop: a sign of toilet and bathroom is very interesting, have the opportunity to sweep the last for everyone to see. Tibetan Mastiff ferocious door. Fireplace upstairs is very warm at night. Power plugs at the door, charging cell phones had to hang in the doorway. Tea Room (mini-bar?) Very clean, but like a classroom, so we settle the account in the inside. The morning is a side door out of streams, grasslands, Toyama ...... the so-called Journey Into Amazing Caves.
That afternoon also went to the Song Zan Monastery, Napa lake. Song Zan cloth be called spectacular, but I have no appetite for Mai Menpiao into the focus of attention, on the outside, took Zhang PP count. Prepared to see through the JJMM Yunnan were all tickets entered. I climbed across the mountain to see a pair of Tibetan couple with two children digging potatoes, and finally walked along the road to see the car in front of numerous large shelves, whether hanging on the above study clearly what it is contented. By the way to the ground a forgotten radish and leaves a beautiful 3 Bugs Chang photo shoot. :)
To the Napa lake was already dusk. Unknown to its true colors. Car to the office there is a row of railings, which is as swamp-like mud, some of the men and women to wear Tibetan clothes to move after a number of horses wandering the railing. Said Napahai inside, only rent Maji in the past. I have the appetite for such sites is not always good, not that mountain at the foot of the lake do? Money or ran to see one, making this a tour Zhang, and I only shake our heads shaking his head ...... it was surely wondering: do not look at attractions, you come out why? Yes, to a place, put here It is well known, and it was introduced, the web browsing sights seen again, this should be ideal for many tourists. But for me, come out, no matter where, I would like to see is where the most mundane scenery, people and life, I believe these measures are truly representative of what's there. I would like to adaptable to the most natural way of approaching it, feel it, feel it, rather than deliberately looking for. Tourism is itself a hurry and off, no matter how mundane or dazzling brilliance is no strange feelings of each person.
September 24, Deqin - Meili Snow Mountain
Usual early departure. We are four days into Tibet from sitting in since we went to Bomi has always wanted to send a jeep, the driver was a very honest Naxi Ren, driving skills can only find themselves strangers in the way up was unresponsive, but cheaper , again safety first, slow on the slow bar.
10:00 to benzilan. On the street a slide hotel. Lunch, rest. Strange dirty toilet is even more unfortunate is that I was wearing a beautiful two-hour sun glasses were turned away this evil pit, tears ah!
12:15 up to the altitude of 4100 meters, the northern slope of Meili Snow Mountain, the next rain the sun. Walk previously seen on the Internet Some say: in Lijiang, no one knows 2 hours after the weather. My experience is that, in the territory of Yunnan Province, the weather is almost 10 minutes a change. So, later saw a little rain on the windows do not worry about Anyway, a moment will be out of the sun. Here be the first time this trip to see glaciers in the distance snow-capped mountains. Get off camera. Next to the road covered with the trenching of the People's Liberation Army soldiers for the motherland (see "our great wall of steel").
2:00 pm, to a viewing platform, Deqin the door is also here, this is one where the mountain god worship. Brightly colored streamer fluttering in the wind, looked very new. All this to kill a number of non-forest. Next to the toilet is a castle in the air, ventilation and too good to be unparalleled, must be mentioned. :)
3:00, crossing Deqin town, arriving flying temple. Provision of accommodation, only a 15 yuan / person. To the original plan but also to the Mingyong, sounded a bit and found that the time it was too late, so give up. There is a monument to the Sino-Japanese climbers Pavilion, 7 Baita, worship Hill Furnace, that is, no toilet, so ...... really blasphemous and martyrs, ah, sin a sin ...
We are lucky in the afternoon peak snow-capped mountains glimpsed three times, let us read your fill, took your fill.
The afternoon sun was shining, blue sky and white clouds, was also a Qutan Temple. I and Arabic at the shop on the slopes with walk-hing, in the shade of a tree feel the plateau Qing Ji, ethereal, its own heartbeat.
Meili Snow Mountain at night, under 10 were the final FB. Blackout. Candle lit dinner on the second floor of the porch to drink tea and chat, but can not drink tea. :)
September 25, Salt - Markam
Daybreak the morning of days, learning the local mountain gods look like burning Pak-chi. After the farewell to the way peers JJMM who followed the three boys and a male driver to move forward and embark on the road to Tibet. Maybe in that 5 JJMM It seems that I was brave, but I know that he was just another ordinary an ordinary woman, along the way many women alone have to commute, or even living here, I do what can be counted? In their view, but was criticized for spending too to just a few days holiday visitors. I've always wanted to live here understand their feelings and thoughts, but after this trip, I understand that impossible. Tourism is the tourism, life is life. Just like here, they will never understand how important the same as MBA exam. In Shanghai, I must accept the qualifications for the test to give up those who break its commitment, where they have to accept or even a lifetime without a bath for six months of life. In most cases, this is not optional.
On the road to see the shuttle, Foshan, Guangdong Foshan note this is not, but among Deqin and Salt in a small town. Is too small, so we had his and I do not know. 11:30, to the salt well, because did not see Foshan, thought we started to Foshan, the results of a question in the salt well known to have been the bottom of the site. Immigration vehicles are to be disinfected.
Visited a Tibetan-style Catholic church, washed some apples, we continue to hit the road.
Open haunt a few kilometers the car had a ditch after the driver stopped the car, only to hear the voice in front of water-Kai Guo. Test results is the fan belt was no more. On foot back to just ditch attempt to find a broken belt Flanagan, unsuccessful. First, think of alternatives that backpack, something that I have with me would have been prepared in case when the rope to be hung up on people if they are used, there has been thought that under the new use, 777 when they are busy cutting tie in that would like to forward to this clear to all what will happen. Backpack did not flexible, and too wide, and ultimately did not play any role. Then see the car had stopped. Want to be able to replace the belt on board. However, in Tibet, the Mitsubishi car had very little, and mostly Toyota, Beijing Jeep, and Dongfeng. A Sichuan Beijing Jeep has given us two of their spare belt, but too long, how should we do? Can not wait for呀! Began a hand-made courses. Cut, appointment length, tied together with wire. Open out a few hundred meters on the off. No other way, only re-tied. Wire has been broken light, and what means are tied to it? Then see the most is jumping on board the original dog decorations left over from the spring, then a good wire, but on the ah. However, this strength steel wire, tied it more difficult. Costs a great deal of enthusiasm, get a long time, open for 5 minutes. At this time is already 3:10 pm, from the Salt Wells has been out three hours, and is located in Hong La Pass, an altitude of nearly 4000 meters, there are 120 km away from Markam Road, nearly three-hour drive. Here are a few good Khampas with the driver to the Road class for help, but also brought apples to us, forget their innocent eyes. However, no Tao Ban belt we need only draw a line. 4:30, once again take a good belt. On the train car, the air is very tense, no one dare speak for fear of the driver that has cut off the master, so that actually opened half an hour, be regarded as the longest period. 5:00, car has stopped. Off, the sun still shines on the mountains, but the temperature has obviously lower down. Soon, the only group of bound Markam shuttle through. Stopped to discuss a few minutes, decided to take the shuttle bus to Markam think about how to find repair parts. In this way, however, resolutely refused the driver threw the car on the road, a car on the train people are waiting for. We had a two-day cost of this knot to the driver, and say, OK, tomorrow morning we will be waiting for him in Markam, if before noon tomorrow, he can fix cars rushed to the Markam, we will continue to pack his car, not far below Department has the village, we are on the bus. On a very crowded bus is the vehicle in the bar, it was smoking, the air poorly. 20 yuan / person.
Markam more distant than we imagined, 8:30 before that, a full opening of 3 hours. Days has been completely dark. We package the car has arrived like a miracle, and God bless!
Live in the county government guest houses, no running water, water going to tank to scoop. There is electricity. Szechuan Restaurant next to taste good. Dinner to discuss a bit tomorrow, a few plans (mainly because they discussed ideas, but I just follow). laral to contact the county government to see if there can be used Mitsubishi car accessories. Afford to lose this way, he ran after running before we can successfully find the car, had a lot of things ...... tangmai are his Walsh said, it is tough!
Ordinarily car bad afternoon, do not know can not be good, it would be pieces of trouble, but I like it all right now, the heart Xianqi set. Walk or stop, to where where I can not seem to have less interested, not even a kind of feeling out, perhaps because I have always been outstanding, in addition to what is outside and Peter is the difference?
September 26, Markam - Banda
Due to the other vehicle had a chance to sleep a Lanjue. Get up until 8:00.
Dawn, and we have to see Markam, a simple very, on the street. This is the Sichuan-Tibet and Yunnan-Tibet Road, the intersection point of such a transportation hub, there is not even cell phone signals. IC Phone Daoshi the street, found a notice on the wall, before we know where the phone number from September 13 has just risen to seven from four.
10:00, the car basically no problem to find a suitable alternative, and then Sheung.
Out 10 km, marked the beginning of different scenery on both sides have become gentle slopes, vegetation, mainly grass, under the dawn horizon open, there are red fox Cuanguo, everywhere Shanshu stroll tour. Mind about stretch to feel that all costs are worth it.
Soon, across the opening to the military vehicles, is the team, one that is over a hundred cars. We stopped at the roadside to give way to the People's Liberation Army, wheat, and the battle to attract laral were military vehicles, carrying their equipment, a quick photo. I took the opportunity to stroll around to see off an attempt to close a little more rocks here, vegetation, air land, because clearly he is passing through, where time is running out.
Encountered several groups of military vehicles along the way make way, we are moving slowly, we began to worry about this situation continues, then after the trip is smooth.
5:00 pm to reach Zogang the road suddenly turned into a paved road, we suddenly entered a paradise like. Southern Tibet, where the absolute can be said, there are mountains and water, cattle and sheep flocks, San-ching Shuilv, in the south are rare. Here a meal, but also Sichuan. Said that the way back (to Banda) are such a paradise road, and we all feel very relaxed, very happy, but later proved this theory is water. Because it opened about several tens of kilometers, paved over, is potholed dirt road.
The voyage before 9:00 pm to Banda, the sky is already completely dark. Happily cars come, people Coushang to ask: Should I take petrol? Night in the street stopped to see hundreds of military vehicles, arranged in a square. We have no time to consider the issue of gasoline, find someone to live in a place to bear. laral to contact the depot, the result is do not ask, so many vehicles parked in here is the answer. So moving to the edge of the filling stations of the depot hostel. Conditions are very primitive, seems to be a row of abandoned houses, which plugs a few bed sheets full of dust, in addition, nothing, no electricity no water, and everywhere the dark, a few large dog barking at the door.
Along the way are afraid to drink plenty of water, when very dry, come to see there are a few hotels, so go out alone, do not want to walk a longer distance, the hotel entrance lights on, which sat a man and a woman, a woman walked up to: eat? (Sichuan dialect) I am embarrassed to say that they want to seek saliva to drink. Men would stand up and help me pour, and brought a chair on the hearth to bake Kaohuo said slowly drinking (very standard Mandarin, as a northerner), and then Duo out. I chat while sipping water's edge and a woman, she came here from Sichuan last year to open restaurants, all the people live is a dry, vegetables, meat were bought from Yunnan. My hometown in Sichuan, there is a child, when he was busy (looking at the door) to help out. Asked about the operating conditions, she said this, I am only open, and did not make any money, a good year, earn 3,4 million. Road, wall, the business is gone, 51 traffic jams when the following month, not business, costing him more than a thousand. I asked her why she come here from Sichuan? Sichuan, said she very vague, I did not understand. I did not ask everyone to choose a life of active and passive have some reasons, every person has some beautiful or pain behind the story, stranger reunite, they know what is different?
In accordance with a woman pointing, very far out, over a ditch to find the toilet. Come back a few dogs wandering at the door, depriving the door I also lingered for a long time. Here is 4400 meters above sea level, before going to sleep, feeling the air is very dry, and later found a hot water, but the bottle too hot, and finally did not drink. Later, like this feeling of altitude sickness may also be a bar.
September 27, Banda - Ran Wu
The morning, ate breakfast on the opposite side, so we decided to buy the vehicles down on the theft of gasoline. 8:30, in time for launching the military vehicle before the team set out.
One kilometer out and found Dawn's side of the road under a small stream, two tents, four tied together bike, I do not know what kind of donkey are. Cars along the mountain turned a corner and look back Banda, actually very beautiful at dawn the next, it seems that last night's noisy, chaotic, dark, dirty, were washing and the sun and a light in the morning mist. I even have some doubts, we heard last night to see everything is correct. And now I really walk in Tibet, but also, or in an immersive dream?
9:25, the road ahead there may be landslides, cars stopped, I heard two explosions, and soon be allowed to go. Later went to the famous White Horse natural barrier 72 Shui. This 72 Shui is the side slope, the point is road, we saw the whole hillside was all in full swing, full of road people, a pair of all the people were like soldiers, there are no girls. Our car stop-go, slow progress, if it rains, I am afraid it is more difficult. Here is said to have been revised for 10 years, and are now ready to into an asphalt road. Now both sides are using mountain stone retaining walls, there are some reserved for the following hole, is completely engaged in labor, and the Yunnan-Tibet, like the communication cable, works more difficult than the more difficult to repair at any time of white repair possible. However, the Chinese people is just dedication, perhaps for the people who live here, survival is necessary to accept such a rigid way, as we have the same dedication to get up early every day to suck the car exhaust and the odor like the subway . Please forgive me for doing this comparison. Yes, I often do this comparison, and tell themselves, this world is not paradise.
2:00 pm, to Basu. A whole street full of military vehicles were parked, we were plugged in. Get off, we asked the situation and learned that this group of people today, will be deployed Basu depot, go no farther, and now stand in situ, and so you'll start to open into a. Found a bread shop to eat steamed buns of the pressure cooker is extremely complex, a bit like space, supplies, well above the instrument. Dumplings (very difficult to eat), tomatoes, scrambled eggs (from the store said that there is no such a eat and will not burn, so that laral comrades to personally get enough to eat vegetables Feng, bend tomato scrambled eggs teach the firing method, sowing revolutionary seeds of tomato scrambled eggs, anyway next time people go to eat tomato omelet Basu will not be rejected, but still, how the taste is not responsible for the.: P).
After all the way from the asphalt of Basu. 6:30, over a bridge, and finally see the beautiful Ran Wuhu. A time when the sun sets, the water sparkling in the mountains red yellow, and green, the color-rich, distant blue sky and white clouds, straight like paradise on earth.
Live rawu depot. Settled and then come out into the lake, the light has dark down straw Zhijiao pity. Some wander back to town, ready to corrupt. Some people covet natural mullet-consuming process, a product that could finally taste, unfortunately, has been fishing Ran Wuhu, which buddies all the children can only saliva Yanhui belly, share of uncomfortable. :)
At night, but also military vehicles moved into the depot brigade. Fortunately, we have the opposite direction and tomorrow.
September 28, Ran Wu - Bomi - tangmai - Nyingchi
Woke up early to see rawu sunrise, not to open the door of the depot, we are climbing walls out. Anyway, busy grazing cattle next door, not to interfere with us. :)
After one night, Ran Wuhu around the top of the hill were put on a white hat, with a colorful skirt, hazy cloud yarn, quietly standing at the jewel-like Ran Wuhu side. Afraid of the sun seemed to disturb them, hiding behind the clouds refused to come out, only occasionally exposed face to peek at two. This is of course to make colors are extremely dissatisfied with straw donkey: you have something generous, out of what, to you to Zhang photo呀!
After breakfast, bid farewell to the beautiful Ran Wuhu, 9:40 start, the way the situation well, at noon 1:10 we will successfully reach the Bomi.
To eat lunch, and Zhongdian masters checkout. Ran to Ukraine in 1000 wanted to add money to please his master sent us Nyingchi, provincial been Bomi obtain other car, but because he has to rush back to the beginning of Zhongdian, to take over a single, unsuccessful. Later, we all feel fortunate that he did not agree, otherwise the consequences of difficult Kan. The dining-room, laral ran out, and we sat drinking tea in a restaurant, for a while, laral back, saying that cars have been looking good, the price is also a good talk, and 200 yuan / person, to Nyingchi, really admire him. Then came a foreigner asked riders to pass wheat, perhaps in front of our hotel on several large packages so that he found us. Later, knew that he was the Czech who had come out 24 days, and preparing to Namjagbarwa to go. Been to Shanghai, it is like the M-BOX. Unfortunately, my E-wen bad, no way to understand more about him some. Wheat straw was right in his hand a very detailed English map of envy.
Soon, their cars, and Beijing Jeep. The driver was a thin little man, this road often go to the familiar road, with a tailor's wife and son to do together, this number so that we have more confidence in him. Found that the buddies on the bus to drive turned out hand experts and children, compared to Zhongdian, the master is too slow careful of (almost an hour in the soil on the road does not exceed more than 40 mai). And Beijing Jeep's chassis significantly higher than Mitsubishi's high, a lot of stones can be easily crossed.
3:30, to the 102 class, which is always said tangmai a natural barrier, 14 km along that road. Although not the rainy season can be 20 kilometers away from here on it began to rain, the road muddy. All the way over here to inquire about the situation, saying that roads, released after 7:00 pm. There are two cars parked in front, laral walked in front of and obstacles to negotiate, to use his special status, half an hour, we moved into this section known as the world's most dangerous sections. Road is only one car wide, only to see the wheels out of two pressure groove and which accumulated silt. Side of the road may collapse at any time of the slopes, one side is a cliff turbulent Nu River, most of the road clearly tilted towards the direction of the cliff. Slope is very steep, uphill is a U-turn, a lot of turns to use some sticks to do the following supported. Sat in the car, in addition to an uphill time shows clearly that the moment the wheels slip a little bit nervous, I have not been worried about their own lives, the driver is also very easy, but also all the way down that turn to us to go on some cars, the woods are too dense, I did not see. That the Czech people sitting in the last row, I sat among a row of straw, I am seeking only to see the road ahead, not back, that foreigners do not know what the expression.
On the road was also there was a thrilling thing. Because many places the roads are only one car passed, so they definitely need to acquire a car speed and the estimated good place. This time, we and a truck on the right, the driver Erhuamoshui on backwards (the driver is very good, will always be open to the car depend on the cliff side, and explained that our cars and light should go out ), but also have an express down, just over tangmai how nervous when I did not see him reversing I was very nervous. Pour over two bends, be considered to see a relatively wide areas, this buddy child to continue to pour out suddenly, and feel the rear wheels to the sink, sitting behind the driver's wife said the stone was loose! Drivers to shift quickly opened up a little, stop. Here is a slope, the driver out of the car, etc. The truck came open. Some people said the car suddenly slipped down, I was surprised, here from the following too close, soil loose again, too easy to fall out, they must sit in front of laral called pull hand brake, the results of the back of a driver's wife said, "his handbrake is useless, "I do! Wait for them to brake on their own feet, then finally laral the brakes. The driver that there was no slip down, probably below the illusion of river flows. Go to hell! Here are the hand brake the car seems useless.
Finally scare off a pass Mak, tangmai town bid farewell to the Czech Republic donkey, and another four shot-like photo Chang bandits continued to hit the road. At this point the sky late.
Later, off-color Chilla said Yamaguchi bandits recently, I never had this spiritual reasons. Darkness coming out of the window is also nothing to see, and in the extremely bumpy car I actually fell asleep, I believe this will make many people admire the dead. :)
9:00 to Nyingchi, we live in a roadside postal hostel. Ate to find places and spent a day of tension, into the safe zone, everyone relaxed a lot, has also been a lot of sense of humor. The way travel fatigue, several of the foreign world famous packages have become a veritable land packages. Then wash Shuiyuexiaoxiao to rub ah ah, to discuss the future of the 19 km to 81 can ZN about on foot in the past, all the way by car, how have to do back in the Sichuan-Tibet line donkey bar. 12:00 just to lie down to prepare for sleep, the door knock on the door rapidly, and the police to check identity cards, or because the bandits do. Said with a smile during the day may be a small 7 surface Wai costume too much like a towel bandits, cause for doubt.
September 29, walk to the 81
After getting up, raining outside, secretly glad that yesterday adopted tangmai, otherwise the rain poured, and that road will become downright genius to know what kind.
After breakfast the rain a bit smaller, or according to the original plan, on her own big bag, hit the road. Here to 81 the road is asphalt, slope is not large, next to the beautiful Niyang. Gone ten minutes, the rain stopped, the sky in front of a rainbow appeared, a long time no rainbow. Road on both sides of the leaves have been yellow, vague shapes of distant mountains and white clouds, bright river, abnormal beauty. Wheat straw and laral can not help the camera pulls out from the big bag.
Time is too early to roadside scenery is such a charming, so we moved very slowly. And from the Sichuan vegetables here the old couple chat, in the Niyang Doudou clear cold water side, the sun, try to wear a path, he saw school children climbed up the roadside trees, Zhai wild apricot, and tolerance do not live to be two years in the mountains of the stream washed to eat, oh! Incomparably delicious! Regret why they did not go up, a lot of Zhai few. State Road 318 near Monument magnanimously left the shadow, watching the elderly, such as turning the street like a serene quiet Niyang ......
4 hours later, and finally to the 81 town, a small Hong Kong, a place called Tibet. Like a small town in the Mainland, Tibet Forestry University here, except in Tibet, Lhasa, the only one outside of a university city. Tibetans few words on the street speak for a maximum of Sichuan Province. Feeling is that people across the country to build a city, full of donated Guangdong, Fujian Park ...... brand. 81 Square is the center of it, a lot of cars here, soliciting, mainly from Lhasa, there are jeep, desert prince, Beverly, Santana, Iveco ...... 5-6 hours available, the price 100-150 yuan / person.
Understand the situation a good car, we stay there in the 81 square edge, ready to break the day. Afraid of the way blocked, he has traveled non-stop, here regarded as the most modern place through to the bookstore shopping, cafes bubbles, market visits, the last naturally into the hotel Tiandu Zi.
After dinner come back in a bath (where water supply is time-limited), but the boiler breaks down, now we have no good. Depressed for a long time, the small 7 but never downstairs borrowed AV cable, you can look at this path of making a video of! This more or less so that we balance a little. Video is long, and do not know would look like after editing.
September 30, giant cypress - Yaruzampbo
The morning out, pack the cars Santana, first look at yesterday, has already passed through the giant cypress garden. Did not come before the hearing they said that the tree diameter of 24 meters, do not think it possible, it is a terrible idea, that is if it is cut open to, then the tree diameter is equivalent to nearly 500 square meters of a hall, look like the equivalent of a small hall, and can be opened in the above ball. Not impossible! Huaizhe this question to find here, of course, no such a big tree, the fact that the tree diameter of 5.8 meters, 50 meters in height, aged 2500 years old. Looks still very spectacular.
After, he drove to the intersection of the Department Niyang and the Tsangpo, parked on the roadside. I go on, the genial warmth of the afternoon sun, grass, cattle and sheep grazing leisurely, distant mountains Didi De lying clouds. There is a force pulling me to move along the Niyang run, I know that is in front of Yaruzampbo - Soul to weigh my dream of holding a place. Four weeks is very quiet, only to hear the voice of my heart: I come! I came to your side of the! I'll see you in! Forgive my hesitation and hasty, but I come! He was so calm, they are so deep and bright. I have no doubt he has a life and spirituality, and that attracted me towards him. Would like to put into his arms, it is so attached to his left and right, but I know there are people waiting for me to go back. I believe that one day I will be soul has gone into here, let him take me to the sea. Believe it or not your bar.
There are a few Niyang 8,9-year-old boy swimming naked, actually happy to see me cry, but also assumed a pose let me shoot, that can be really generous.
Back, sitting room, basking in the sun drinking tea. There is no such a long time leisurely life in this moving forward under the sun, appears to the incomparable beauty. So, later, in Lhasa, I tired of this or that rushed to the spots, temples, just a little more like the sun's life.
October 1-5, Lhasa
We are sitting Fukang cars to Lhasa, which is sitting in this way the best car, at this time what was experienced in cars, it really is - comfortable. :)
All the way landscape is still beautiful, and the yellow leaves of green grasslands clear water ...... beautiful. Guo Kampot Jomda, Mira Yamaguchi, Mozhugongka, followed by one hour, the distance vision in the sudden appearance of a buildings roof, is very familiar, "Abdallah!" I scream! Next to the per capita laughed language (this car I am a person who never saw Abdallah's). I did not expect such Abdallah ruined into my eyes, into my heart (see "unexpected non-Dara").
Over a bridge, we arrived in Lhasa and the Tibetan heart.
Jokhang Temple and Barkhor Square, the city is undoubtedly the center of this sun. Here every day, all sorts of people come and go, doing all kinds of things, everyone is equal, no one will not interfere with who does not despise anyone who is or who look up to. Various cultures and way of life converge here, everyone can find a sense of belonging. Jokhang Temple looked at the door perennial never-ending pilgrimage crowd, watched them hundreds of times from morning to night stood up and get on the ground five bodies to bid for land, whether Yinqing the rain, I know this is totally different from our way of life. Education in their childhood, perhaps poverty and begging are not shameful, while the pilgrimage is more important than life a top priority. For us, whether it is "a beautiful woman in the book, book, house of gold" or "fortune grown up an officer, Yao Zu Guangzong" education, not to teach us things that catch fame and fortune. Perhaps it makes no sense right and wrong, just different circumstances of different beliefs and ways, and all beliefs and ways that are in pursuit of one thing - happiness. The only problem is that in the pursuit of their happiness when other people not to affect the pursuit of happiness, do not feel happy the way impose them on others, but often it is a lot of people can not do.
Bajiao Street is naturally lively, clockwise turning the crowd pilgrimage around the world are attracted tourists, a variety of goods ...... in Tibet is a shopper's paradise. But sorry, I am a person who does not like shopping, so more time to be looking at visiting the various people on the street.
Go up to the Bajiao Street on the third floor terrace bar Ma Jie Mi. Want is a fried rice, a pot of sweet tea in India, where they enjoy an afternoon sun, see the following Bajiao Street on the coming and going of people. Do not want any problems, so make time for a pleasant walk from the side. If it is not too far away, it is expensive tickets, Lhasa is a wonderful vacation of office. However, if, indeed there is such a condition, Lhasa will not be like this now has.
Lhasa River, very clear, in the evening sun shining. The distant snow-capped mountains quietly guarding her, and she quietly the mountain had to be aborted. Streamer fly with the horizon, the cloud changes. Over millions of years, oldest old. Human beings always want to read them, but still can not see that, with the lives of thousands of tens of thousands of days how to understand their eternal?
Corruption, of course, inevitable, especially when seen from the peak down Kang Sang Lamu heroes. Sichuan, Ma Jie Mi of black tea, cheese, snow-capped Tibetan restaurant meals, chocolate cake, youth on the road mutton string, were all into the belly! Hei hei ...... laughter, then the sunny city of ......
October 5-7, Lhasa - Chengdu - Shanghai
5 morning, reluctantly went to Abdallah ago, good-bye.
Gone, Abdallah, you will not feel strange. And interactive site where you gather a long time for your souls, but I'm just a wandering soul, come and go gently. Thank you, frankly accept my attention, let me see you long-lasting life. I have to go sooner or later, as many bowed to the foot of the subjects you are. Yes, I am different from them, I am sure you will understand my attention. Gone, Abdallah, my life is very limited, but it is fortunate that I can and you have had such exchanges. Gone, perhaps some day, I will come back
The afternoon of plane to Chengdu, with the car has completed 10 days of the road, a half-hour flight finished.
With regard to Chengdu, I have only one word to describe - FB!
7 morning, the aircraft took off from Chengdu, two hours later arrived in Shanghai.
Like I never left the same, familiar air, voice, roads, buses, subway ...... just as I teach you in a circle just like the morning out. Of all the mysterious beauty of spectacular scenery, people, sound is like a mirage-like disappeared.
Postscript
Photos printed out, I slowly walked the streets of those who recalled, met people who have experienced the wind and rain ......
APEC holiday, stay at home alone, doing nothing out of the window, looking at the sun, a little bit of pick up those walking on the road day.
