Sentiment in Tibet
2001.11.1. Write
I finally set foot on this piece is finally manages to make the Holy Land - Tibet. Sentiment forward to your fresh, your charm, your radiant; enjoy the mountains and rivers, kept trained on a seat, one of San river, a plume of light; to listen to the Tibetans are nice sweet song after another Tibetan songs. At this point, I am unable to remain still and that emotion, Kacha, Kacha ... ... with the shutter to record the mysterious heart of Tibet.
September 29, 2001, I along with a line 21 people in Sichuan young photographers embarked on a "Western China" vehicles to Tibet Mission bus photography collecting folk songs and began a long journey. Chengdu, vast and mighty from the start, transit manager, county, Norgay, across the roof of the world the Qinghai-Tibet line, passing through the vast Gobi Desert, across the no man's land of northern Tibet, China's largest saltwater lake walk - Qinghai Lake, came to the Yangtze River source - powered by Da River; and then crossed the Kunlun Mountains, set foot on Tanggula mountains, etc. 15. Finally, through the town of Nagqu in northern Tibet arrived in Lhasa.
For me, this is my first contact with the Tibetans, the first time for 5 days 4 nights Mercedes-Benz on the plateau, the long journey, after many hardships reached back to the dream of Tibet situation very frustrating. The way a few days of life is seared deeply into the depths of my mind. To this end, I have no regrets. Because it is a life experience, only experience had only know how to cherish.
I remember the first day around midnight car plunged into the muddy grassland (I saw it all). Seeing this move can not be a Da Guaiwan car stuck for a whole night (three non-stop to repair the Tibetan drivers can get a full or no more than two hours Gaoding). At this point, a dark prairie reaching not see five fingers, I looked up and feel the moonlight under the endless sky. That little star is blooming with bright light, the sky seemed close to me, very close. Stars in the sky like a tortoise and the hare, catch-me. I sighed and said: prairie night sky so beautiful! I began to imagination, I think of colorful prairie scenery, remember singing and dancing prairie herdsmen. When I was intoxicated at the beautiful reveries of a sudden turn off the lights - and sleep (the original settlement of the powerful vehicle to be dragged from the car to. Night on the desolate prairie where's the car?). So, everyone engaged reverse gear to sleep. Everyone wake up and get off the initiative helped carts, do not forget we are more or less time with the altitude sickness. Busy for quite a while, still no avail. Finally, only hailed in the street. The car just stopped to do with a rope! Great! In the group of Tibetan boys in Dingli help, we finally are out of the quagmire. When the wheels out of the moment we are thrilled to have relieved! Then, we hit the road.
As the night's delay, we must step up their progress. Drive too fast, this is not a good road conditions at this time is even more severe ups and downs. Can not be lying in the car, in the fierce shock of intolerable pain under the more confused (plus plateau response). A bumpy, dusty face full of cars descend quickly, feeling a vehicle air pollution. The more cars the more powerful Great Britain, almost jumped out Britain have faster internal organs, and really "cars on the road Britain, people in the car Great Britain, the five internal organs in the body jolt." At this point, I really appreciate the taste of the Great Britain. Truck continued to travel in the Qinghai-Tibet line, everyone's heartbeat accelerated as the altitude increases. We climb an altitude of 4780 meters in the Kunlun Mountains to the source of the Yangtze River --- Tuotuohe. It is 375 km long, originated in Tanggula Mountains south of the main peak la Dandong snow glaciers in Shanxi Province. After the rest stop we Tanggula pass toward the highest point across the board. Tanggula pass 5231 meters above sea level the boundaries of the Tibet Autonomous Region and Qinghai Province to. In order to arrive in time for the evening, the driver is even more speed to catch Jingan slow, we attend to eat lunch, all to make way for the film. Finally, when the sun sets in the evening arrived at the Tanggula mouth, the weather was exceptionally good; We were very lucky really good. Yamaguchi said the weather here is extremely unstable, even in summer roads are often closed by snow. Hail, sleet also is a common thing. When I was in the car overlooking Tanggula mountain, that magnificent glaciers, that lofty towers, the magnificent feeling really amazed me curled thumb. A golden dawn of irradiation, snow-capped mountains just like to put pieces of golden coat, even more attractive option, and dazzling. Get off we do not have the slightest reaction to the altitude, we are deeply attracted by this scene before his eyes. The beautiful people drunk ah! Shadow faithful handheld Changqiangduanbao, or left, or right, or before or after, or on or in the next searching for their best shooting angle. At this point, forget the fatigue for several days and nights, forget the reaction to high altitudes, more of a dedication to photography them. Gradually dark days, we realized that the This photo shoot a few pictures to record their own.
Climbed over Tanggula, into northern Tibet grassland. Northern Tibet is Tibet's most attractive tourism, collecting folk songs, creating one of the areas, which area is the whole of Tibet 1 / 4. Here salt lake more, but sparsely populated, harsh climatic conditions. At this point, our car is still on the Mercedes-Benz in the prairie. I saw the distance the rolling snow-capped mountains silhouetted against the herding group and a large group of Tibetan antelope, a bunch of beautiful light and shadow to invest in the distance. Faced with this situation the U.S. is not grand course, this is the beautiful North Tibet Plateau. Everyone excited shouted: "Parking, parking, working the (film)" I picked up a few head to pick up the EOS 5 photography service where installed, ran a vigorous step down. One look bad, sheep too fast. Snow-capped mountains in order to grab the background, in order to more recent group from the antelope, I flew all the way to the best shooting point. Breath took a good few, until the most satisfactory. When I returned to the car, the driver seriously said to me: "Do not life a! At high altitudes must be slow-walking, not to mention strenuous exercise you really get you into trouble. Here more than 4300 meters it!" Wow! This hypothesis can be really shocked me. However, I feel like I Meisha altitude sickness. They still pay more attention to be good! Northern Tibet gives the impression that incomparably beautiful natural scenery. Color contrast of blue sky and the earth a very strong, where a very high degree of air permeability (air pollution), see Han special things clear. This feeling is only in person in order to understand its territory.
Driving through the city --- Nagqu in northern Tibet, came when the male. When the male is located in central Tibet Gangdise Mountains - Nyainqentanglha mountain zone. Well-known attractions are Namco, Yangbajain. Yangbajing forward 87 km Qinghai-Tibet line is the end --- Lhasa. When the vehicle arrives at the Damxung, I suddenly feel unwell, nausea, and vomiting in the car on. At this point, we are roadside restaurant meals. Shadow of Friends have told me to go eat a light soup (add strength). At this point, I consequently do not want to eat. The altitude sickness in Tibet has been my worst time. Later I asked the Tibetan drivers, why are over 5231 meters, and to the 4200 meters when the male is Buxing Le? According to them: "Here's the unique climatic conditions, they often felt unwell and out of time." In fact, the altitude sickness is normal for everyone physiological responses, but the severity is different. Even a native of the local people to live a low-elevation plateau also need to re-enter through the adaptation period varies. Therefore, without undue tension.
When the male arrived after my dream of Tibet - Lhasa. I finally set foot on this piece of the Holy Land, the first thing that catches your eyes is the question of the magnificent Potala Palace. A few days later visited the Jokhang Temple, Barkhor Street, Drepung, Sera ... ... along the Brahmaputra is also the capital of Tibet arrived in the post-Shigatse (Tashilhunpo) and Nyingchi areas (81 towns). All the way along the road to Niyang Nyingchi, the scenery along the way people really can not believe it is in Tibet. Therefore, Nyingchi known as Tibet's "southern." In front of the Jokhang Monastery witnessed devout pilgrims step in a kowtow. If you like the capture cultural landscape, be sure to go to street was Duodai a few days, the harvest will certainly not small it! So many things could not be filmed street was too much: it is the rotating circle around the Jokhang Temple, Tibetan commodities Street, it is also the pilgrims by turning the way it combines religion, Street, Culture Street, ethnic Street, shopping street and the Commercial Street as one, which fully demonstrated the original style of the ancient city of Lhasa. Stone streets of shops on both sides of that distinctive Tibetan houses, there is no hand-held wide turn around the streets of pilgrims through the cylinder. Good flourishing. You liked making the humanities, this time, waiting for some eyes straight hair, "prey" to happen.
