From the Qinghai-Tibet Highway to the China-Nepal Highway (6, beauty Everest)
August 9 at 7 am to eat biscuits went on to travel agents, heavy backpack, but fortunately not far. Old Zeng, and Chen has come to hear his name connected to his son the other hotels on the road. Lhasa River surrounding scenery is really good, Youcheng films barley, yak rarely seen here, only the trumpet of the cattle, and the scenery of northern Tibet in another direction.
Driving teacher was Tsering Dorje, the beginning of CCTV's live broadcast Everest ascent, he also took duty vehicles in the base camp a few months, looking at those men and women who boarded the peak. However, Lao Li, and Tsering were very disdain for those climbers, Lao Li said the Himalayan Sherpa people year-round in six or seven thousand-meter mountain sheep, often in search of stray cattle and sheep climbed 7, 8000 meters height. Which are themselves only to back the oxygen, the rest of the equipment should hire back to the climbers who spend huge sums of money at every turn like a child in making the game, the locals just as if they were mentally retarded only the God of Wealth. In fact, I feel like myself.
In order to take the old road to Shigatse through the sheep lake, the car walk through the winding roads. All-dirt road, exchange car dust blocks out the sun, the visibility will be declined sharply to zero. The windows because of this and frequent l ups and downs, good lines of sight in front of Chen, and every time in front of a car to comment on, shouting, "off the windows." 4500 electric windows feel good, I sat in the Qinghai-Tibet Highway, Beijing Jeep, or hand-cranked windows, the latter half is simply unable to shake it, and can only be left to wind and rain. From the winding mountain road can be seen falling down the mountain there are trucks, body broken into two parts, V on hill slopes, Yashang parked tractors, and many locals are picking over the goods on board. We regret and the middle line and jumped over the pass, lazy sheep at the foot of the mountain lake has been a cross. Sheep Lake was long and narrow shape, the surface calm, like a block of jade between resting on the mountains. Our car along the shore road, on-street there is a ping ping of rape, lake cove several small villages, deep and poetic to permeate the surface of the lake.
Zoulehenyuan the lake narrowed, Tsering Dorje to the car parked on the bridge, his hands that we see the foot-long fish to the upper surface of the water to swim to go Jingsi is nothing terrifying. Tsering Dorje himself down to the water's edge, there is a waterside plants, he stretched its hands to water plants, the groping for a while actually caught a fish out, move to the mid-air to show us. When we have to go scrambling when Tsering was immediately thrown into the well water the fish. We instrument the one will be a no income, Tsering have urged us to leave. Obviously, this Tibetan extra pairs of creatures love to please us. Speaking on the train later in the protection of wild animals in Tibet has done is really good, ordinary Tibetan people would not kill, Tsering in the car, not only for cattle and sheep comity 3 first, actually on the road of wild pigeons are first deceleration , and then whistle, see we have made a deep admiration. Tsering and Lao Li said that in recent period of Tibetan antelope have been hunted a lot, although the red in the line of executioners are Tibetans, but those who are forced to livelihoods of the poor, behind all-bosses are Han, Hui and foreigners. Without these people dictates, Tibet, the place is definitely a paradise for wild animals.
To Gyantse, we went to the baiqoi monastery, tickets 25 yuan. The temple has so many books and tanka, but the very poor preservation conditions on the heap in the hall inside, covered with dust. Chen have been saying, that if any one take away books and Thangka, the next rest of my life is enough to use. Hundreds of thousands went into a pagoda is said to be after the repair, and there are 72 Buddhist temple hall, are to be tired Bai Guo. Castle did not go, but looked far. That kind of bunker, as long as supplies ample, in the cold weapons can not be broken, and no wonder where the story Anti-British will leave. 19:00 arrived in Shigatse, live Shengkang hotels, conditions and services is absolutely good. Retail price of 380, but the travel agent provides only 120. This reflects the superiority of the visiting group, that if he could not bear to affirm the more than 380. A good night's sleep.
The next day Tour Tashilhunpo, needless to say, or rub guides. Miss Tibet's guide is very pretty, at least I have seen a few are. Had a hall to a hall, Buddhist statues are similar, there is a strong Pakistan's largest Buddha more than 20 meters high is spectacular.
Solemn halls of cigarettes a natural curl to engineer a solemn atmosphere, in such a place, there is no religion can make people give birth to fear. Busch, we Xu's dream, although I know is idealistic, but also decided that if could really fulfill our wishes, will come to the Buddha with butter lamps would also like to.
Tashilhunpo out of everyone complaining about the lack of highway construction in Tibet humanized, city in the roads, but they are blocked the roads, closed construction, people and vehicles in order to be around a long passage. In contrast, half of us here are the repair, take the half, at most, and Tao will not be blocked. Sidewalk are all dirt road and can not open the window in the car hot like a steamer, and then walk 1 hour before to the right path. Ate lunch at the Lazi, but also saw the solar cookers, is boiling water. The sun's energy is really extraordinary, a moment on the opened between the water, of course, up to 90 degrees. Night of the Xegar town, but some of the accommodation side of the road points, off the road a few kilometers are the new Tingri county. We live in Tingri Everest Hotel, conditions, stronger than the side of the road more small hotel, the next road is 1 km. Standard Room seems to be 260 yuan, Lao Li father and son lived; we live in four humans, each 60 yuan, is a suite, with toilet, no shower. If the knowledge manager can also be cheaper, letter of introduction here, said you can not do the border card directly to Mount Everest.
Tsering I do not know to this situation, so get up early the next day took us to New Tingri to Chen to do the border card. Public Security Bureau opened to find the first signed letter of introduction, but also to the armed police captain to find the border to do the signing certificate. Inter alia, the many people went for a long time no Tsering out, I let my wife to see the original and honest Tsering sat outside the door waiting for him, while familiar to many people and armed police could be the first to do. Fortunately, my wife is also a force on, and armed police units of the friendship first organized. The treatment of armed police here, really high, newly graduated trainees a month earn 2900 yuan, more than double my wife. Xegar is not far out of the checkpoint, everyone get off the registration, the military, the police certificate directly through the pieces. I do the border card, that policewoman bit dizzy, in the subject where Tim had my identity card number, the destination where the first tim in Shenzhen are erased Adds the Tingri. Sure enough, saw the armed police are also dizziness, costs me a lot of explanations.
The gaoula Yamaguchi (like the name), the Tsering said that the weather is good, where you can see Mount Everest, as well as around the three peaks over 8,000 meters Unfortunately, this time not see anything. Along the way are the sun was shining, to where we started disturbed up, I do not know how luck. Tashi cases ate at noon, as usual, is the Sichuan, although growing, but our appetite has been adapted here, the height and Sichuan. In the song cloth turning a corner, we are sleepy, Tsering suddenly stopped car, the fingers from afar - Mount Everest. No one to say anything, have picked up the equipment, making up. At this point only half of the peak of Everest showing the clouds, but no one doubts it, how many times in dreams and meditation, Everest is like that. Today, finally met, the trip is aimed at it. Old Li even said to go home and have also suffices. Only 15 minutes, Everest has disappeared, but obviously everyone's feeling much better, I wish now only to sleep overnight in the camp, as can no longer see, no longer important. Chen was very excited, he wanted to climb on the 2nd camp, Tsering promised to give him to find a wizard. Although we advised him to scrap the whole idea, but he is believed that his physical, he was allegedly deliberately Tanggula pass off a kilometer away, there is no thing. This Tsering, a joke, when his never laugh, but in such a place, this joke, Chen certainly too much. When there is no sunset to the Rongbuk Everest accompanied by gold buildings in the landscape, which unfortunately have been so old, he asked Tsering line and the distance to the base camp after the plan not work. We urge unsuccessful, we began to proceed to the camp. The way, Tsering stopped at a stream, saying that it was the world's most pure water, each person should try, I drank a few mouthfuls, is good, but a bit cold.
Headquarters are but a few tents, most of them Tibetans around the hotel opened for tourism. Tsering familiar with them, we live in a tent, are two sisters opened, one lives in Tashi cases, a long and beautiful, like the Indian species, several people have clamored to want her away. Birth tent stoves, burning cow dung, which is very warm. People in Taiwan came in a lodging, he and two foreigners walking on foot, half-way tired, and crosses the foreigner bent on breaking up. Unexpectedly, a map of foreigners are not allowed, the map of the walk 10 kilometers a day, forcing the spread fell to the ground, and good in a car passing by, people who get off to facilitate rescue him. Taiwan's population was excellent, but I do not know whether it exaggerated.
At this time, Tsering recruited a young man, asking price 50 yuan, with Chen on the on the 2nd camp. Before leaving, Tsering said the round-trip to 12 hours, looked at him funny face, and we do not know what to say. Fortunately, only 10 minutes, the two will be back, Chen said that the road there is a river, deep, guides to undress to swim in the past, he fears that a cold, only to come back. After a while, the wizard also found a Tibetan guy, saying that he could cross the river back Chen is 50. Chen thinking about a half-day or give up the idea. Tsering said the CCTV broadcast Everest ascent, he was outside the block in order to Zhengdian, back a number of supplies to the camp on the 2nd. Although the Tibetan people but also tired Buxing Le, walking a few steps to rest, back like a 100 pounds 50 pounds, but he lived on the 2nd camp to meet the usual 4-5 days, and we have just up to meet the half may not be OK. Chen of the issue is resolved, we began to worry that the old have been up, the sky gradually dark, then 8 km the road is not easy to go, Lao Li tease Tsering In doing so, Tsering said, after dark to pick up the old Zeng. Fortunately, she had had up the old, and only said that cold, drinking hot tea was much better.
A child outside saw the Mongolian gazelle, attracted everyone ran to see, is wild, there are 6-7, with fur and stone, have to carefully identify. Shop girl actually calling me uncle, it really depressed me and put on a walk down jackets. The direction of Everest is still cloudy, but fortunately we have seen the afternoon, even if tomorrow morning, or have nothing to regret this. Once it was dark on the last stronghold of cold, strong winds. Perhaps just drinking cold seeps, perhaps along the way are not open burning drinking water, and perhaps the stomach is really not suited to Sichuan, and in this place where the gods gaze, and in this was the most pure place, and I - diarrhea, and a number. The next period of time, I have been thinking, is the shame I'm just glad for this.
Although not feel uncomfortable at night, but also could not sleep, my sleeping bag hot, do not have to cover the above quilt. Trance, I have heard they are playing poker, Tsering seemed to lose more than 100 pieces.
Dawn when he heard exclaim - Mount Everest. We put on clothes, carrying equipment out Ben. Maya, never thought I'd be so real to see Everest, people not believe it. So close, or even the naked eye to see an article was gully. She was too warm, and she has no modesty of the gains and because of this, I am now seeing is not the time when she was very beautiful. Now Everest is naturally makes me think beautiful, beautiful dream of a sudden off his clothes and stand in front of that feeling. Though the United States, but found it too direct, too easy, you had never experienced the kind of timid, Banzhebanyan the temptation, they went straight to the theme, and some regret. But I do not know what it feels like lesbian now, but there are girls came, we also staring eyes and asked me, "This is the Mount Everest do." However, even so, she is also a well-deserved Everest, she appeared, surrounded by peaks eclipsed. She was so shiny, everyone's field of vision in addition she had no other view of the. When we reached Rongbuk Monastery, she then hid in clouds to see it.
13, returned to Lhasa, but the flights were full, only set to get the aircraft to Chengdu on the 19th, but also could have been. 6 days wandering in Lhasa, the Potala Palace, or rather learned in such a paragraph was Hachiro Beijing Road. Acquaintances on the road one by one away, every night I will see the auspicious day on the balcony of the courtyard jammed with newly arrived backpackers, together make new friends or look at bulletin boards, I really envy them the kind of the beginning of to Tibet to get excited, and our trip to Tibet, so an end. Although there are Nyingchi, Ali could visit, but we no longer have to go west of the East swing, bustle in the desire to travel between the various attractions. To the Nam Co Ye Hao, to the Everest Ye Hao, people fascinating is the destination, but the way people experience is constantly remember that aftertaste. Came back from Everest, a trip that this trip has been no appeal, we are more willing to relax and enjoy the sun too Lhasa. Consecutive days of afternoon tea are beside the window, with a pot of sweet tea and a few magazines to kill the time.
Significance of the trip may have to change their living conditions, adjust themselves have physical, mental, and thus to find a better state of mind into a normal way of life. In this sense, the wandering of the travel is by changing environment, a passive adjustment of mood, but on their own initiative to adjust their mentality is a higher realm, is the so-called "little faint in the wild, large faint" in the city take the initiative to to the holiday mood more skill is needed for.
