"Less than the Great Wall of non-hero," not to walk to an empty Lijiang, Tiger Leaping Gorge. Although the chips for a few days thinking about human counterparts, but eventually chose to walk alone. To get up early in the morning, catch a tiger to jump on the green car, flew away. On the tiger jumped into the town at the bridge a few kilometers, the companies reached the half way will go through a river crossing bridge in the past many foreign backpackers to get off here insisted on, it is estimated that there is a bridge, because the language barrier, usually and the driver instructors are pulled to a half-day struggle. Laughter, but I helped the English teacher wrote a note on the front, save some trouble.
10:50 am, our car bridge, arriving on the tiger jumped. Parking at the Banpo, Yourenruzhi. Qi Hao, under the stone steps down to the riverside, we saw surging Jiang Tao was a rock a two and a half, carrying the potential force of a thunderbolt rushed downstream, the startled waves mist thrown a few meters high, as the goddess dancing with light yarn, graceful magic. Unfortunately, there are too many tourists, colors pack endless noise; vendors everywhere, selling the same without any characteristics of the tourism product; a lot of local ethnic minority children and girls dressed in clothes, shouting the visitors pulled a photo; more there are groups of porters, carrying crude bamboo Pole, have soliciting. All this undermines the solemn strains of Tiger Leaping Gorge, as the body to the streets and marketplaces, so I do not want Duo Dan.
Back to the highway, across the side of the culvert, is a gravel road. I will be hooded jacket draped over his back, put hats on their heads, Dacheng a portable arbor to fend off the sun plateau Zhilie foot journey begins with start here. Ahead about 2 km, there is a tile-roofed house to see the roadside, a broken front of the house parked Jeep, right rear tire had been missing. From the door out of a 30-year-old local man, I went up the mountain asked the way, he murmured a few words, carry Shouyi Zhi, then self-Mangqu. Looked around, did not find any signs pointing to the mountains, in turn forward. Taking the road of 1 km, roadside mule leisurely eating grass, and asked it approached the mountain road, mule glance sideways at me one, snapped the nose and turned away, the bottom front of me, and is no longer ignore.
Are hesitated, I heard a faint Banpo hoeing sound, Xunsheng looked, seems an old woman labors in the fields. Refused to take a hoarse voice, inviting voice to her ask for directions. Only slowly waved the old lady did not say anything, seems Liao Zhai characters, evil remarkable strange. Turn back 200 meters, it was found a small trail. Climb along the trail, this Road is extremely narrow, being mule stepped on, mud-drenched, good easy to climb halfway up the mountain, but found that the old lady away from me who have Banpo far, half hidden in the corn rooms. Are hair-raising occasion, catch a glimpse of two and a half the size of a peasant woman with a babe, in the side of the corn ground busily working, cackle a few words, before he settled down. This great mountain slipped more than 10 per walk a few steps we will encounter. Wrong with one that is a small and a half years, the wasted a lot of physical strength and time. Toss back and forth several times, exhausted, but fortunately hit a group of local people, still rubbing the Dayton's home for lunch, tea and eaten enough, after walking less than 10 minutes, finally found the Highway, which is Tiger Leaping Gorge walking route.
This is a path full of flowers, with the following roads parallel to extend far to go. Endured the previous bitterness, walking on this road, really comfortable borne. The original legendary landmarks, on this mountain road, are more red or yellow paint, or marked with arrows, or marked with the distance, Halfway Guest House, Tina's Guest House and other well-known hotels have Internet advertising slogan. The scenery along the way, only reminds me of one word - "paradise." Hill and dale of the flowers, colorful, Zheng-qi Dou Yan. Flowers mostly 5, a small amount is 8. Bell-shaped, fan-shaped, and bright-yellow Hang, and pink flirtatious, and dark blue secluded, Koshiro proudly, and stunning incomparable. Each turn a col, landscape picture has changed. Or a spring ding-dong, or cut steep cliffs, or trees, or winding canals. The beauty of this road, Zhi Jiaoren dazzle relaxed and happy. In the Halfway rest stop in Germany is being run into couples and handsome guide small group, four peers, but also another round of fun. What does this picture even worse way forward. Distant snow-capped mountains towering, close by Qifeng rocks, waterfalls from time to time direct vent, which is quite spectacular. Approximately two hours are all downhill, straight went to my legs become soft. 6:15, and finally reached the Tina's GH.
The second day at noon, from Tina's behind the house alone down the mountain, look at the tiger jumped. Spiral down along the slope of the narrow winding path through a wooden door, the steep terrain Shashi up, every step of the span is not small, and sometimes have to slide down along the rock surface. Hill Road on both sides are green bamboo-shaded springs gurgling, and the birds chirp, a good school of beautiful picture. Approaching the foot of the office, there is a long slate of people, tied in small bundles bamboo grove next to the lateral is the Fei Liu and down waterfalls. Lai stone lying in the half hour, having left to leave. But even more spectacular scenery on the eyes. Falls into the estuary, a huge rock, such as upside down the old stumps, Jinsha face here narrow rapids Dunsheng, Ocean Waves skies. This is the stone of the tiger jumped. This is about 300M away from the downstream, there are a bunch of Qinghei boulder, known as second in the tiger jumping, blocking the left side of the river, the river Jicheng a slit, forming a huge gap. Wave of intense and painful impact on the rocks, but it stirred up waves more cheerful. This is exactly the sun shines into a surface, the Rainbow out of thin air, gorgeous scene in photo is breathtaking. Faced with this situation, will never forget.
On the third day morning, Tina's delicious eaten breakfast, packed up again, launching the. Just turned off a cliff last night's rain to make the entire fan of rock beside the road collapsed down, blocked the road, a large forklift struggling to dig out of trails, while the corner was again high waterfall inside a mountain stream diffuse before, Several workers with the three wood, busy erected a temporary bridge, lasts an hour, I was passed. After all gravel roads, the road flat, walking sleeves and wind. Days, it began to drizzle, but only suffered minor injuries, I do not Shihai the presence of a moment, looking at the scenery look at the scenery, it really pleasant.
11:00, I arrived at the next tiger jumped. A small wooden huts along a lane beside the start of this journey for some of the most thrilling and dangerous. Because the rain get wet pavement, this Hill has become extremely dangerous, and good paragraphs road is smooth as a mirror directly from the rock splitting the middle of a number of pits, side looking down, several hundred meters below the rock surface is turbulent Hunhuang the Jiangliu. Xinxin little twists and turns down to the gorge bottom, been through a big slope debris washed into the gravel beach, climb up one side of protrusion from the river were only five-meter-high cliff-top characters, no this avenue, then sat down cross-legged on . The other side there is a motor boat, are contained in a busy pedestrian crossing the river team. Less than 5 minutes, the ship will be crossing over, and actually stopped the rocks sat in my front, the original piece of protruding rocks is their so-called new crossing. Faint ~ ~ ~ Fortunately, although the risk of rock, but can not imagine the difficult climb, spending 12 yuan a smooth crossed the Jinsha River. Lijiang is the jurisdiction of the other side, the ferry owner to help me a call, time to keep the upcoming big a departure from the last one bus back to Lijiang. Burst like mad to mad rush, a half-hour climb up the slopes of a few hundred meters, a car people are stopped at the side of the road waiting for me.
Way back exhausted, they simply lie down and go to the last row, has been approaching sleep only to wake up the county seat of Lijiang.
This completed a walk alone on the Tiger Leaping Gorge, whole, no matter how dangerous the process of ups and downs, when I harvested the hearts full of sighs, all the hard work will be worthwhile.
