Vehicle traveling in the desert plateau on the left is the endless expanses of the Gobi Desert, the Qilian Shan mountain range on the right is endless. Sunset has always followed behind us, from the bright yellow, orange yellow, orange and red, purple and finally become dark red. Just bid farewell to the sunset, but also usher in a bright moon, freed themselves from the shackles of the horizon, the round was placed in front of the road, especially eye-catching. Manned vehicle all the way, overcrowded.
1:00 arrived in Jiayuguan, the national hotel accommodation, 30 yuan / person. The night was dark, his mind is also thinking of things to buy return journey tickets, consciousness gradually blurred.
August 15, plans to: 71 glaciers.
Get up when the three brothers are from the train station back, and they bought a ticket to Lanzhou, but also solve the chartered things 2 Santana, one and a half hours, 350 yuan per vehicle. Arrived with big hotels, to the ordinary three humans, 78. 10 am ride start.
71 glaciers from the city for the Asian continent, the nearest glacier, hidden in the depths of Qilian Mountain. Taxi out of urban areas, towards Qilian pulse direction, both sides of the endless desert and distant mountains endless dark brown. The car along the winding mountain road, uphill downhill, and then further on, the thrills. Climb two mountains, glaciers arrived at the entrance, that is, the beginning of a hiking path. Time being, there is no tickets, not many visitors. Stopping point 3,800 meters above sea level, glaciers are still the height of 4800 meters, looking to see the white top of the hill. Altitude sickness, get off soon feel slightly unwell, together with Sheung difficult to walk, climbing the initial dizziness, whole body fatigue, a less than 10 kilogram bag, rather being extremely heavy weight. 100 meters from the beginning of a change, to the dozens of meters a change, so that the last few steps a break, you want to give up too uncomfortable. Finally a gradual adaptation, the body return to normal, to speed up the pace of the mountains the temperature is low, the wind was big, clothes wrapped tightly, and still frozen shiver. However, the lack of oxygen tired, the first heart discomfort, ear, nose of the sting, it can not cover the magnificent mountains, glacier-mee. Last paragraph of the mountain steep, full of rubble, crawling hard. Hardships, we finally had to face glacier. A white silk headline, tiled from the top down, smooth as a mirror, White was suffocating, time is also stagnate at the moment. Stone at the junction of a little ice and blend into a river, stream Din Din pound, and flows under the glacier, but also magic is real. Mu-sun, no wind at Caesar, the cold no longer, only see the blue sky mounted on the ice above the green mountains annihilation mixed yellow sand, sunshine into the shadow, streams keep company a great sport. Ice several feet thick, sticky edges are sharp icicles, moving a discharge mouth, but also the ice slippery. First touch a cold stream, refreshing. Continue to climb, standing on a glacier, feels like a gentle lamb curled at the foot of the clothes, look around, a vast expanse of whiteness. We are fortunate in not being contaminated flocks of visitors to destruction before the board but this mountain, from the fortunate not to experience the natural Mai Menpiao of Kiyono, from the foot of the mountain to enjoy the transformation of the sun to warm laughter Peak Qin Bone Binghan se, all So are the people admire. Sticking to, from or unknowingly sets and yellow day. Backtrack, the golden sunlight will be reflected in the figures of our opposite hill, roadside grass with our brisk pace, a time filled with emotion, often attracted mountain, they can not see this mountain glaciers and exciting pan-days . Suddenly there is adventure, the entrance, is a glacier with Deng's bold and Han banquet meal, into the Tibetan tent, eating mutton fan, drinking cold beer, with girls dressed photo.
Returns home from Jiayuguan, road clearance City, dazzling magic lantern outlines the secret spots of the tower at night. Car taken to the train station, bought a sleeper ticket tomorrow to Lanzhou, return to hotel. Clothes, thin due to the mountain cold at night do not live headache, not shopping, eat medicine kick into gear stayed to sleep.
August 16, plans to: Cantilever Wall - Jiayuguan City - first pier - Wei-Jin tomb.
To get up early morning, headaches disappeared, the body full of vitality. Today's attractions are all playing around in the urban areas, we take the classic route.
Is still far from the road, they saw a thin wall like a snake crawling on the mountain side of the general winding, vivid. Came to the foot of the Great Wall and found a very narrow width, large enough only three were side by side ahead. Breath summit, Everywhere around, and before Hirakawa, after the ridge overlooking the Great Wall, a few crawling. Cantilever Wall rebuilt several times, and the remaining traces of the ancient has been limited.
Jiayuguan City, really worth to see. After entering the door to a man-made lake, clear lake bottom, green trees on both sides of foil. Guan city monument at the entrance of giant pictures of visitors, we're no exception. Into the city, with the front passenger flow to the main city, open square, tall towers, man set off was so tiny. Onto the walls around the turn along the circle, outside the city on three sides Jiewei the vast Gobi, gales, show even more upright and rugged gorges and Jiayuguan city. Tower on top of "best in the world with big" words, vigorous but bleak, a kind of "Kazuo When closed, Wan Fu Mo open" the boldness of vision. Stroll in the city and enjoy the ancient architecture, the fun is inherent within it.
Outermost one through the gate, into the head is full of yellow sand, high winds rolled Until this blow against our faces, it seems to show off its barbarism. Over the years, the soldiers stationed here in this very bad environment for child survival, the stability of the Central Plains in order to pay a lifetime! Connections with the outside can be riding and camel from others. We did not look at the museum, directly out to the first pier.
Best in the world Tun, the most western end of the Great Wall, in fact, a huge mound, with fences around behind some low walls, just a little symbolic significance. Next to the Grand Canyon of the road is blocked death can not go to see is probably only in the edge of the cliff profile, said after the development and prospects wonderful.
Finally came to the Wei-Jin tomb, generally need to ask tour guides, in order to protect the murals. Tomb murals broad themes, colorful characters colorful, lifelike, with a high artistic value. As the protective measures is limited, temporary opening on the 6th tomb, the tomb of textual research for the civil service, the tomb is divided into three paragraphs, the former description of the tomb murals servants, men and women described in the tomb owner, the latter kept a coffin tomb. These murals have been there 1,700 years, although some fade, it's still very beautiful. Side of the watch while listening to commentary, a taste of the Wei-Jin artistic charm. A cemetery to the presentation hall, which detailed the information, the most famous one "travel map" had been seen in the history books.
Back to the urban area, while sitting in the new city plaza, drinking cold rest. Aftertaste today's tour, only praise the Great Wall, the e-er-e Aoyama; city within the omu firmament; Wind Tun of the wild, ruins; Wei-Jin tomb, the painting as true. 8 pm to catch the train to Lanzhou, visit a successful conclusion.
Excitement throughout the night sleep, emotions, it is difficult to do that. Lovely Gansu, forever in my heart ......
