Western Regions style Kee (1) entering the Xinjiang, Tibet and Xinjiang, for me, a life must go to two in the western region last year, went to Tibet and Xinjiang, the idea of Bianyu hair away strongly. Xinjiang, a good place to listen to us, north and south of Tianshan good pasture singing, I and her husband embarked on a westbound road.
On the plane spent a long six hours later, finally Urumqi guest house where the two met online appointment Shanghai girl jaka and vv, to go along with "51" night market to eat dinner, be regarded as the initial contact with it, feeling pretty good. We set up a public fund, by VV responsibility for finance.
Jaka provides good off-road vehicles and Lee in the Altay and other master us, so today, the distance from Urumqi to Altay China by another car in an open chef sent us over the past weeks. As the digging oil pipelines, roads leading to the destruction and burning of our mountain trip Wucaiwan dashed, first arrived in Xinjiang, give us a month Xiama Wei, and my heart can not help but some unhappy. Car speeding on the highway, both sides are blowing in the saline-alkali land of grass grows. After Urho Mogui Cheng, Zhou refused to take us into the master in any case, it kept saying too much means nothing inside, but let us stop at the roadside or more pictures, we do not simmering rage Good attack, had to move on. Zhou said the master took us to the Fuhai County Wulungu Lake fish meal can be considered to make up the loss we can not go Wucaiwan thought-week teacher was good for us, did not expect that this place has a reputation as Golden Bay is not even worth a go , beauty is not, and saw the usual Wulungu Lake lake to see no difference in the flavor of the fish can only be regarded as Mama Huhu it, and he called upon to Fuhai County is also taking a devious route from Urumqi to Altay The only way, everyone silent way, by this week's also no interest in pursuing master mention beautiful. Are we on the trip to Xinjiang so unlucky? Therefore, after the Irtysh, our chef weeks anyway and parked the car in the Great Bridge, the bridge we go down to the Irtysh River sunset shot.
Altay City last evening at the Golden Hill hotel door, etc. We saw the teacher and his三菱越野车Lee, Lee Master enthusiastically invited us to his house guest, our hearts began to drum, and will not give us to eat stars assurance, Then give us a Xiama Wei bar. In the night, we crossed the river on a rack in the Altay suspension bridge, and then walk about 15 minutes in front of a resident to stop. Master Li's house a small but very warm, Li master's wife and daughter warmly greeted us, gave us to look at his photographs and paintings. Lee is the oil painting master university professional, like photography, music, four-wheel had been in the university group had a band after graduation, became a six-year art teacher, is also a change of four-wheel do not know how many vehicles, see Lee who is angry, young master. Lee dedication to master to ask us to dinner, around the sudden growth in the pot, talked about his past, and we had a good talk and sang a song, we started to slowly put their minds at ease, a feeling that we are the future journey Xingqingzhongren will be happy. Late night, Lee gradually master numerous Jiu Li, we have raised him to the home, asked his wife, be sure to take good care of him, and we have an appointment 9 am the next day at the hotel gate waiting for him.
Western Regions style Kee (2) Kamoku Qiu Jing
9:00 sharp, Li-time teacher at the door waiting to see we keep to our own gaffes in last night to apologize. Hey, It turns out that with a tripod to see our comrades, carrying a camera is also brought back the desire of his photography, he also put to the rear of a camera bags, put a tripod, it seems color-you everywhere ah. Car embarked to Kamoku Li master first took us to the birch Altay Park photography, the park is very quiet and very Kongkuo, half of birch leaves are yellow, with "birch" This song is very similar mood. Noon to Burqin lunch, a clean, small towns, we have a small restaurant to eat ramen Uygur, yogurt; after dinner, we respond to the market to buy some fruit and take on the road to eat, to buy a watermelon, a melon, There are some grapes, we have always listened to music of Xinjiang, and there are still jokes advance. After the Kazakh people's cemetery, Li master asked us what we are invariably the answer is the mosque, of course, is the answer wrong, I got past the concept of Master Li told us of the Al-Hasa rather die than live the philosophy of logic. Original hasa nomadic, their lives are always to walk, there is no fixed residence, they would never the biggest thing the two married daughters, built the tomb. When old people died, after the people will give him as build a nice house like the grave, so that he can safely live their lives inside, without having to drifting around. Graves look very much like a small mosque, on top of the crescent toward the direction of Mecca, they are also believe in Islam. Later we saw a lot of transitions in Al-Hasa, a group of wandering people.
In the piedmont into the Li master the car to fill with oil, which after three days, there was no place to fuel the. Cars began to take the winding mountain road to the Kanas section of a very good walk, but after a Kanas, we began to become very bad road conditions, Li masters tell us that across the board in Xinjiang are in roads, many parts of the tours cart to not only off-road vehicle, the present Haba Kamoku and white people to go less, but photographers to go there. Of next year Kamoku and white Haba way a fix, we would perhaps have begun to tour groups went to there. Finally in the evening, reached the Kamoku, Hemu is a Kazakh and Tuva were mixed in a small village, each household basically have to start the hotel business, and we chose the one closer to home from the lake a small hotel, which families and Li is the teacher was a friend, easy to climb up and went to shoot the sunrise tomorrow morning.
In general Hemu, Kanas, white Haba these three areas there can be only half a year to stay inside, and so on under the snow during the winter, they close off the mountains inaccessible, while the inside of the animal husbandry, people also have all moved out, May the coming year and so only when it will eventually migrate back. Entered into a small hotel, a surge of tangy flavor from the butter so that we can not accept the 1 o'clock, while the dinner is authentic Kazakh food, milk, yogurt, milk knots, frying oil fruit, we have asked for a 2 pounds of lamb, with a the practice of authentic Kazakh done a veritable lamb clutch. Outside it began to rain, cold temperatures have been evident, but we live in cabins is indeed filled with a warm happy atmosphere. Master Li told us of a true story, when the whole of China MLM trouble when the most fire, direct sales personnel came Kamoku, Lee had a personal chef to see running on the grass Guangzhebangzi, so Lee approached the master asked him, how do you wear so little clothing, not cold ah? What do you think these people said, he said: "I do not cold, my whole body up and down a fire mission." Lee said a master shot him, your mind is ass kicked. (Local dialect: neuropathy) after listening to us laugh, his mind was ass kicked eventually become our mantra.
7:00 am was our beloved master, Li called up, and God, the concept of Beijing 7:00, but 5:00 in Xinjiang, ah. Days daybreak. One out, it felt significant cold, still raining, the distant snow-capped mountains of snow have fallen on the hillside, and pastoral areas is such, mountain rain, mountain snow. At the moment we we got caught up in thick clothing, and even brush your teeth are free of the face, it was Lee Hulu to a full-time for the master boarded, Li master drive the truck to the foot of the mountains, stop, we have five individuals began to turn Hill has. At this point I looked around, all came to photography, with Changqiangduanbao. The two small hills to climb, occupied a favorable position, waiting for the moment the sun appeared. Standing on a small hilltop village overlooking the Kamoku, basically have been yellow birch, and then hope the distant snow-capped mountains, covered with a golden white birch, a layer of cottage, and then a layer of snow-capped mountains, a strong sense of distinct layers. And all the scenery have been shrouded by a layer of mist, when hidden, at times, dreamily beautiful, indeed well-deserved reputation Kamoku the morning mist. The Peak of people gradually came to be filed, standing on top of the mountain dew heavy, but also want to feel the chill pressing hair, my knees began to feel a dull pain at this time. Wait until 9 am, and we seem to see the hope, the rain gradually stopped, clouds and gradually dispersed, the sun from the clouds a ray of light scattered inside, everyone is looking forward to the moment the sun burst forth, but we hope the greater the disappointment the greater the dark clouds gather again slowly, while the rain also is getting up, can not wait for sunrise, and Lee teacher let us pick up good equipment to begin descent, and he also drove along the same route to come to meet us . At this point, has become a heavy rain, we went to the lake, hiding under the eaves, wooden house waiting for the emergence of Master Li.
All out in the cold waiting for about 20 minutes, far saw our off-road vehicles in the muddy mud on the road ahead. We rushed out to board a bus, then back to the warmth of the log cabin. Kazakh people has given us a good breakfast, in addition to meat, not for those outside the clutch plate, or same old story. A bowl of hot commodities of tea Xiadu only let us back a warm feeling. After dinner, packed his luggage to the Kanas embarked. To see a few people took part in the organization Zhong-Lin 3 days riding by Hemu Kanas of the group walked, and we certainly agree that these people are deceived. Gangchu Kamoku car door, clear up days, and we quickly seize the time to take equipment off camera, in the sunshine, a beautiful rural scenery into this and, in order to hurry, we will be finished according to reluctantly left the Kamoku .
Western Regions style Kee (3) - commercial from the Kamoku to the Kanas Kanas is only 60 kilometers, but because of road is not good to go. Kanas by the United Nations official described as "the last piece of pure land on earth," we look forward to while being developed, but do not destroy too terrible. Bought a ticket, checking the documents, even into the Kanas of the land, and road repair very well, but it is often more trouble that way more easily, just one week before we arrived, just out of two accident, all drivers to drive the field. Kanas road is good enough, but it is winding roads and multi-turn, the field road drivers are not familiar with, often because of the speed would be too fast out of control caused by falling off a cliff brake. We are after a two car accident locations, see the wreckage of cars remained in the mountains, in this self-driving trips appeal to you friends, must be careful to drive away oh.
Jarden Yu noon meal, are aware that expensive, the original 30 yuan one of the Da Panji here sell for 80 yuan a small string of barbecue should be 2 yuan, which can be 2 yuan to the southern border is the luxury of a. Way to the Kanas will turn over the Wolong Bay, Moon Bay and the gods Bay, when you see a road full of parked next to large and small travel agencies vehicle, a road crowded ah. Bad weather, people do not take pictures of the desire to return again when we are ready to shoot three Bay scenery. Car to god Bay, we were blocked, and was told to transfer vehicles to enter the Kanas scenic spot scenic spot. Let Master Li portable valuables carried by vehicles to enter the scenic area, he secretly at night after work, such as opening the car to take us into the day after the White Haba. Dangling in starting a scenic car, roads very well go along the way there are many waiting point. Wave after wave of people on the bus and get off, there's sitting in our tour bus, they go to the accommodation point, including individual, his companions had to help him get off the luggage belt, he unwittingly no politely asked if we took his luggage, until his companions told him that he was under the car, we are very angry, why so bad quality of the Chinese people.
Kanas Scenic Area has been developed over all the stay points are densely distributed in an extremely unreasonable and there were people everywhere rubbish. This scene let us disappointed, had no thought of how good, but worse than we anticipated. There are a variety of scenic accommodation to choose from, the most expensive is the Hyde Hotel, Presidential Suite for one night more than 1800 yuan and the cheapest is that we stay this yurt 40 yuan / bed in the middle section is a log cabin, and is basically During peak periods, where the size of tour groups stay at the hotel have been fully booked, which we have to live in the Lee Hill chef friend's open clear water, but have lived here, and could only find another place to stay, we have pretty good luck, found Kanas Villa style yurt, a Hui-open, fairly clean. Kanas scenic spot where this car on the road is a good way, accommodation point of the roads are very poor. From the accommodation is very difficult to point to the toilet, toilet still pretty far away from the accommodation point, the originally Caichu the mud by cattle and sheep, along with rain, basically can not go. I, jaka, and vv shallow kick kick deep to walk in the mud on the road, standing on driveway upper car laughing out loud a few Cantonese us, we can no longer tolerate not go for such practices has given an extremely boring the most ruthless fight back, loudly denounced them, and maybe see us really angry, and they stopped laughing. Poor, sad ah!
We settled accommodation, four individuals embarked on the river began to Kanas, sit scenic riverside walk vehicles. Floating gloomy weather, rain, the river is obviously fewer people than the scenic area along the wooden plank road ahead, both sides is the number of tall birch, wood Plank Road, on the whole is swept under the golden autumn leaves, feeling very comfortable. There are also many traces of the river people, they cut down the trees, the dense trees, Ma Tei will be placed on the sections of the river, deliberately create a taste of virgin forest, but this actually creates an artificial mark, Kanas, human the last one soon Pure Land no longer exists.
Per person to eat a bowl of noodles on bed rest, cold ah, outside it was raining, we fear that tomorrow's sunrise again wasted.
Western Regions style Kee (4) fairy-tale world, white-Haba morning Jiupaqilai, wear reflective clothing out of all of the door. Thickening of the distant snow-capped mountains again, and Li Ting Guan Yu teacher let us go look at Kanas Lake, and he asked that we go down the mountain before noon must be white Haba, since he had last night the car rolled into the scenic area, and secretly hidden in his friends there. We walked a path bound for Guan Yu kiosk station, they find that we are late again, a large number of group tours led by guides on the train, we are not so time-consuming, so go up and check the votes to communicate in preparation for standing up to Guan Yu Ting, the driver agreed to our request, in 10 minutes, we reached a Guanyu Pavilion.
Guanyu Pavilion on the need to climb more than 1000 stairs, steps are all human beings, well, not only to the security of the hope that we will go up later, good luck to be able to see the monsters found in the Kanas Lake. Walking and taking pictures, and finally to the Guanyu Pavilion, overlooking the Kanas Lake, a steaming mist, as far as can see only two Bay, said that as far as good weather could see six Bay, pavilion is also packed with who, stumbling into a left a video will be down the. Since yesterday evening, the Kanas River is light is very dark, we decided to follow the river at large in today's pre-trip, although there is no sun, but light can still be. Along the walking path along the cliff edge to see pictures, very few people feel very good, unknowingly had to the noon. Time jaka phone rang, Master Lee has urged us, we speed up the pace, stay in the shortest possible time, back to the point. Master Lee took us to the clear water and breakfast Villa, Villa boss is very hospitable, early in the morning put the hot porridge and noodles cooked for us, and we Chibaohezu, to develop a whole body warm.
Kanas Haba less than 40 kilometers away from the white, but the road is very difficult to walk, we have a muddy road ahead, a Great Wall Vokera put out the fire on the road, trapped in the mud. We stopped the car and asked if they have a rope, we can help them dragged out of the car, they did not spare the rope, we can not help them, can also like a solution. Car after a birch, surrounded by a very quiet, as if the world only if we are a few people. Began to rain, and rain increasing, more and more difficult road to go, while the low temperature of only 1 degree. Beautiful things in the world are not so easily be able to obtain, must go through to get after the hard trek. So when we entered the small village of white-Haba, we believe that our trip is to come to the right. Master Lee took us to the Northwest first post, in the hillside overlooking the white Haba small village, as if to a little like a fairy tale world. Do not know why, these days the sun is particularly mean, we go to a birch photography, wait until the sun is not, but hail, holding the camera in hand has frozen shiver. We decided to contact a good accommodation, and then get something to eat, Li master took us to his knowledge of a Tuva people stay there, this family Tuva people's man of the house the village's only college students, but also do Tai Panji taste good. When we went to visit relatives, he just went to the Kanas to be back at night. We are to put their luggage room, the hostess greeted us to do pull-note has gone, to eat in the pastoral areas is extremely simple, just pull a note of this simple food, very little vegetable varieties, and so we have a bowl of la note Xia Du, felt my whole body warm living together, This well looked Tuva people live in cabins. The room 2 hours inside and outside homes, outer room wall hung a portrait of Genghis Khan, the room furnishings are simple, but very warm. Toya all Pass Village shops, purports to deal with tourists when the use of walls covered with brightly colored tapestries, but also hung up a white fox, very national identity. Kazakhs and the Tuva people think that with the white wall facing the guests are extremely rude, so their house, you will see all around are covered, and covered with brightly colored blankets.
We love this warm and clean house, so that Master Li stay out of things to discuss. The hostess promised us that night, so that we live in the back room and do not live together with anyone. We settled after their stay, they went to birch picture taken. This went out there to keep us terrified, two large presence in photography, and little villages to stop the five off-road jeep, two CMB, on the road has been choked. The Birch Lane are all about people, and we are fortunate to early to find good place to stay. Waited a long time, the weather was still not turn a good sign, light, and gradually dimmed, and we all became gloomy as the weather together, decided to abandon the shooting, four walk enjoy the beautiful scenery. As we pack up equipment, the snow-capped mountains on the cloud slowly dispersed, the sun is out. We are excited, and waiting for three days the sun finally appeared. The entire piece birch in the sunshine suffused with golden light, strong impact on our field of vision; distant snow-capped mountains in the blue sky and clouds also appears to be more relieved against pure white; at this time it is evening, grazing, ha Sa drove cattle and sheep to go home; birch, log cabins, horseback riding shepherds, cattle and sheep, bathed in the sun under all covered with a layer of golden coat. Placing ourselves in the fairy tale world. Cattle and sheep also seems to have a spirituality, we frame a good camera, they will automatically get to where we shot where everyone had struck a pose, a leisurely stop before they can be away, because with these lovely spirits that we are white Haba trip photo only so perfect, the weather improves us all with infinite joy, wrapped in mind prior to sweep away the haze. As night slowly falls, the sky hung a big, bright starry sky, as if within reach. We returned to Tuva people ready to eat dinner, etc., to enter the house and found that outer room sat around a table of the Kazakh drivers, one was aware of their inquiries are those photographers drivers. In the 10 pm to wait for a man of the house, and his greeting a few, waiting for dinner when the man of the house into the house told us that the room has been photographers pack down, preparing to give us temporary place to live . Master Lee was angry with them to negotiate, but the economic interests compel them to stick to their principles, Li master so let us back luggage on the train, he was prepared to drive back to Kanas night. In such a muddy mountain road, late night, is somewhat worried, but fail to beat Lee Master, and the thought of so late to rent a place to stay it is very difficult, and had to do so. So in the cold night, Lee Master Open Heating let us sleep for a while, but all cars are trapped people who, though they did not dare to sleep with him before the trip Qiangdajingshen accompanied back to Kanas has been late at night, stay clean water Villa .
Western Regions style Kee (5) - Mo Guicheng chasing the sunset last night, sleep late, early in the morning had to get up early, took advantage of the scenic area before going to work bugger. Villa boss of clean water is up to us early in the morning ready for breakfast, eats a steaming hot breakfast, in the boss's blessing, we have developed. Today's plan is to arrive at Karamay, so the road is distant. After three Bay, we lose no time in the gloomy weather took a few pictures then rush to get on the train away. As Master Lee agreed to fill the last time we did not take place Mogui Cheng of Palette Town, and the plan, so when we went to a colorful attraction is the river bank. Colorful river bank not far away from the Burqin a place where landscape and the colorful city of the same, but the momentum smaller than the colorful city of. Burqin walk in to the road, did not go far, from the Po on the road a bumpy dirt road, this place has shown signs of colorful landscapes, cars, banks have come to the colorful, where mounds of earth is essentially a two or three the color composition, formed after a large piece of weathered terrain, in the mound can be seen on the Ergun River along the valley of its Sri Lankan quietly flowing, no less colorful city.
More than three in the afternoon we returned to the Burqin small county, where the good places to eat a meal, say Burqin dog fish delicious, the last time we had eaten fish Fuhai Xinjiang famous five black and the dog fish, as to the authentic place to eat fish, a dog, this dish is a natural indispensable, Chibaohezu, Li master on full speed to catch up to the Karamay. Good roads coupled with the master drive Lee stability, not long after we sleep passed. When we woke up again, we found around the beginning of the landscape changed.
The original is the way of the saline-alkali soil, grass, and here is preached on both sides of the red chunks of weathered brown mound, see the colorful river bank with the previous two kinds of topographic features entirely from the Mo Guicheng far away. Of time, has come to the evening, the sun like a glowing red like a yellow duck hanging in the west, was originally brown mounds of red in the setting sun, shining even more mysterious look. We chase the setting sun, hoping that the devil in the city photographed the moment of sunset, and so we are open to the Mo Guicheng, and lastly, the sun has already faded. Devil in the city's momentum is very ambitious and the devil stood overlooking the city and overlooking the surrounding open desolation of the scenery, listening to the wind whistling ears, my heart could not help but produce a strong sense of isolation. We did not photograph the sunset Afterward, immediately decided to live in the Urho tonight, tomorrow morning sunrise shoot up. Urho accommodation has also been filled, and we only live in a small roadside inn, the will for one night.
Western Regions style Kee (VI) - Gloomy day, sunrise is generally higher than in the Mainland in Xinjiang to some later, but these days the sun is very stingy, due to the hurry of the reasons for the sunrise, which do not always, so today we are only slightly delayed out, hoping to catch up with Mo Guicheng to see the sunrise. Unexpectedly, our plans will fail once again, this time not without wait for sunrise, but the way to the Mo Guicheng have seen the sun rose up, and go one step too late, really unexpected outbreak of ah. To the devil in the city, the sun was thick clouds to cover, while the hills are already packed jammed with people, the original is two largest folk photographers pre-empt a step occupied a favorable terrain, we went to shoot yesterday position, waiting for the sun appeared. Mo Guicheng The wind can be really big, people standing on the hill stood feeling unstable, the Windy City is really worthy of the name ah. Like the wind like a knife to his face and blowing cold and pains, I was really skeptical, and so on in order to sunlight, so worthwhile abuse yourself? Thus Shadeng more than an hour, the sun finally came out, shining yellow in the brown reddish brown mound, the inlay of a Phnom Penh. We quickly seize the opportunity抢拍a few, I am the devil and her husband decided to walk around other parts of the city, and this to go on consuming a lot of time. Devil in the city there are many beautiful stones, jaka, and VV and others are all picking up some back to Shanghai.
Today is a day of pure hurry, in addition to Mo Guicheng, the road there is no stay of the landscape, according to our itinerary Jinghe arrived at night. From Mo Guicheng already quite late, so hurry, it is estimated to go around 21:00 to get to the Jinghe, while Jinghe master's university students, including Lee, who will be there waiting for us and invited us to dinner. The car left the Mogui Cheng, flew toward the Jinghe direction. Consecutive six-day run around, we are not slept a good feel, but hurry, today is the day, so just get on the train did not take long, the car flew around people who have been asleep. LI teacher after learning that each of us like to sleep, of course, he was a bit of an exaggeration, but can be really happy are dead. At 9 pm and more, we finally reached the car Jinghe, his classmates what big brother booked us the best hotels and Li Bin Jinghe Hall, this evening could finally sleep in a good bath. 21 o'clock we went to the streets over food, Jinghe not on a main road lined with little shops, and street lights are dark are not clear about the surrounding landscape. We even took a good long time to find a hotel, it seems the nightlife here is really poor. Xinjiang people are very hospitable, where big brother is a master Lee University's best students, along with group band together to chase the same girl, These are the masters to give us to eat drink out Doulou, Li master already belongs to us as a good friends. Lee Master Let us drink delicious evening is good, nothing to do tomorrow, go late, because tomorrow's itinerary is not very far, no hurry. What Big Brother and Lee began after the master drinks, singing, Lee sang a master of his own writing at the university over the song, 'my father'. Capacity for liquor is not good and I have been in such a hospitable jaka cases have been drinking a little bit of a halo忽忽, we looked for an excuse to be slipped back into hotels, leaving their three big men continue to drink slowly.
