29: Zhongdian - Xiangcheng - Inagi got up at six today, and starting to pack up ready to catch the 7:30 bus to the Sichuan towns and today is our last day in Yunnan Province, we have four wandering lost 12 troops backing the people's congress and lost the free shuttle service teacher Liu will soon embark on the unknown long road ahead. I in particular, as the organizers of the trip, and in this morning feel a special loss: It is now able to determine only the 17 o'clock before we will reach the towns and, whether and how to arrive this evening Daocheng? Whether the package to the car early tomorrow morning across the full range of construction under the highway to the rice sub-Daya Ding protected areas? Can Over the next two days time, Saturdays and Sundays has completed more than 4000 meters above sea level, hermit deep in the Aden area? Everything in my organizer who seems to have been quite impossible to proceed to the mercy of tough questions.
Out of the Tashi Hotel, Zhongdian city is still in a pale blue morning mist, we played a taxi to the bus station, the taxi a lot of Zhongdian is convenient to the city where both are five-. Bus Station is located in the city center, we simply ate some breakfast hurriedly climbed on a bus just stop.
There is no railway in this area, entirely on long-distance passenger cars, Yunnan and Sichuan provinces in the province of the coach are relatively developed, but the traffic between the two provinces is more difficult, for example the same starting from Zhongdian to Yunnan, Lijiang, Dali car several shifts a day, away Sichuan towns and this is only one line, only one bus a day. Originally in order to promote Zhongdian, Inagi tourism development between the two places, in the opened up a shuttle bus between the two places, but the road is not due to the recent Inagi tourists, it also stopped the bus. From Zhongdian to the towns and eight-hour drive, we have to get to the 16 o'clock number, while the towns and to Inagi Although only four hours away, but it must be checked on a mountain over 4000 meters above sea level, only in the morning car, we arrived for tonight Inagi, you must arrive immediately after towns and chartered. Of course, we can also go directly in Zhongdian chartered Inagi, but that case price is too high.
Zhongdian to the towns and the fare is 54 yuan, roughly equivalent to the new mountain to Kuala Lumpur or Kuala Lumpur to Penang fare, although the mileage is almost, but because of Johor Bahru to Kuala Lumpur has a rather grand highway, but there is only earth and rock roads, so time-consuming and poor has doubled, and the model is even worse a few grades: Malaysia's car is a luxury coach, air-conditioning, luggage compartment, toilet, reclining backrest than Greyhound (Grey Hound) was also more strongly; while here The car is probably more than 171 mountain road to the new bus is much worse, and no luggage space, overcrowding, extremely dirty. So I think China's coach too much expensive than in Malaysia, but do not forget that Malaysia's per capita gross national product, even in the financial turmoil, China is still even after two to three times (~ 2000US $), Malaysia, how kind of the working people than the Chinese people have money, do not know why the car is so expensive in China.
Today, the car say it, is simply a bandit car. We have long heard of this car the air foul, and deliberately bought yesterday, catch an early front ticket window (window ventilation, front then eat some dust), did not expect the car to our seats long after the discovery by several Tahan gain an advantage, and I with their theories, all of them have to make a rogue-like: We have a few are all together, we sit here you have to be like? I do not want them to theory, we rush to find 4 in the rear window of the seating arrangement to sit down. There is no luggage rack or luggage compartment, and all their luggage had to backpack in the middle aisle, but demand, etc. are all from these luggage, "which climbed off" one day down, we get dirty backpack suddenly seemed Huanglian Po , Lawton can not match the previous 10 days trip to the backpack the day's "torture."
In addition to ticketed passengers on board in addition, there are mixed ticket, there are on the wrong bus, and actually there are two beggars are also carrying a sack squeeze onto the car seat to sit down and come prepared to leave the base to Sichuan, Yunnan, and later discovered the driver, obstinately these two bearded old man who啦Zha to expel, so I had a girl on the wrong bus was in the midst of rush Lianren Dai luggage down, I do not know what funeral. Finally everyone has a car seat, happy, begun smoking cigarettes, we have nearly nine hours of smoke in the world of life are the formal opening of a gong.
I grew up in Shanghai, an adult in Beijing, and later wandering the Quartet, after all, have been mixed in large cities, very few went to central and western regions, but also those who never seen smoke so popular. Shanghai people in public places is quite self-discipline, no need to say more; overseas campus of the University after the no-smoking, so far, I've only met one person - apparently the Chinese people - violated the ban on cigarette dangling from the campus to make cool-like (I can see is for looking for Si Zhuang, mindful of our compatriots Yi and it did not call the campus police). I always thought that most people know smoking is hazardous to health reasons, did not think the car is really an eye-opener Zheliang long: In addition to our outside, where the men are all smoke (secondary sexual characteristics?), Especially in a Tibetan men, particularly at night, an attached one, almost no cut off, then I nap to escape the dirty cars in the world, every wakes up, will see him in the smoke, I can not help but worry for the majority of Tibetan people: inherent spirit of Tibetan Buddhism control, add another cigarette nicotine poisoning, and how to change the world take on the creation of an overall improvement in the New World to establish a new home for the historic task of Tibetan people's living standards do, we can not rely on anything Kong Fansen, right?
Inagi from Zhongdian to this section of track, as a User said: "The whole process is beautiful," the way are basically canyon terrain, mountains, Yunnan-Tibet road to this mountain, the mountain off than different, not only much smaller, but Phi full green, pleasing eyes, compared to the desolate mountains of Yunnan-Tibet road is entirely another forceful style. Bi-Valley at noon so that I stop lunch, the canyon is so-called "Shangri-La Gorge", according to Ctrip are extremely long, stretching 120 kilometers through Gonggar snow-capped mountains, we do not pass through the ground, I do not know how, but that the map point of view from the Bi-let to the Gongga far more than a mere 120 km. Even from the towns and proceed along the Sichuan-Tibet Highway road yet to a full day to get to Da Gongga Kangding under snow-capped mountains, during which no less than 300 km straight-line distance estimation, it is said 120 kilometers, or biased.
Lunch place is a typical "Station Hotel", which is exclusively used for accommodating long-distance bus passengers between the small hotel by several Tibetans perform household. I looked into the kitchen, I feel it could be considered the terrible sanitary conditions, he suggested to eat you for Egg Fried Rice, this stuff used in both clean and there are nutrition, but also can not make exorbitant demands, so we asked for a Siwan Egg Fried Rice, 5 dollars a bowl, although a bit expensive, but the amount is sufficient, mixed Gebao away from home very satisfied. It is also said to the American style, when Liu teacher once told us praise, saying that Chinese and foreign tourists were considered the best ability to endure hardship in the United States devils; a reference to disdain like Switzerland, saying that they go to the mountainous areas of Yunnan as if that in their pocket a small country like, have to eat bread and milk, fried eggs, the toilet is more troublesome, each had to find home-star hotel to open for one hour for part-time room in order for these classic Mrs. solve the problem, it is "Do not enter indecent assault, indecent assault and not to a" , if the non-finished fight a battle if they can not be (but probably do not know the master Liu: Swiss seem to have when the mercenary tradition).
Probably four of us carrying a distinctive backpack while eating the simplest of Egg Fried Rice while talk, be mixed use of English, Mandarin, perverted Chen Ying also cropped up from time to time a few Malay, and Tibetan ( He made English spelling to the sound of Tibetan, "Xian Nairi", "Yang Maiyong" the words down, also made a rhythmic), which makes several of us just grab a seat now sitting opposite us eating lavish meals local countryman looked at us a daze, finally summon the courage to find an opportunity to ask us chipped in. Where are you from, we are all those who do not harbor bitter resentment of honest people, chatting with them on a few, the idea is still "quite well relative to contact . "
Afternoon in the car again boil for several hours to reach towns and more than four points. Towns and built on mountains, in the transverse mountain ranges, connecting the two Diqing and Ganzi Tibetan, South glimpse of Yunnan, Sichuan, under the East, geographically, is very important, since ancient times was fought over. 1911 Revolution, the Northern Yuan won the presidential power and position, the British imperialists instigated the Tibetan troops looted disarray Sichuan-Tibet border, the occupation Litang, towns and into the far, northern Sichuan, the government that the power to make revolutionary army defeated the government Qianbing attack not worth swept away the Tibetan army, in both the northern revolutionaries in charge of the Department of confidants Prachuab alternative military and political power, can be said to kill two birds with one stone. Alliance party member Xiongke Wu, Mao Xin, but losing ground, abandoned army he went, Joseph leaderless, fragmented, landlord tyrannical rebellion one after another, planted the seeds of long-term warlords of Sichuan, the Visiting Forces was removed, the potential for endless war (1 1911-1949 Joseph-year struggle in the historical facts are too complicated, just enough to straighten out the thread to get a doctoral degree in a). So, this year of a war of historical towns and indeed have considerable impact.
We have a bus stop on the four walk around feeling can pack the car, I Piedao a三菱越野车parked on the roadside, the owner of the shop to buy cigarettes, and asked whether he is willing to turnout, something happens that he does not start, but the call give him "big brother" (estimated to be only a fraternal loyalty just is not any real brother), and soon opened a wretched Changan vehicles parked in front of us, finally bargained to 400 dollars, four travelers with a claim to the Inagi Jiangsu Taizhou people acting together to squeeze car sailed Inagi.
Thanks to you for love, still my arranged adjacent to the front with the driver, not four, together with all the luggage packed in the back. However, let me sit in front of great peril: my side of the window there are some problems with affluence are not on the Che Xingzhi six in the evening, climb a big mountain over 4000 meters, combined with unseasonably cold, I do not do cold Finally, put a hand in the big summer all of the clothes, the ski jacket's zipper has been delegated to the chin. . .
In fact, a good scenery along the way, especially when you drive to the Peak can be seen a very broad plateau pastures, and pleasant scenery, but I have been cold half to death, only hope arrived earlier Daocheng. Soon after that is downhill sumdo, sumdo Daocheng County is a subsidiary of a township, here is a fork in the road, then north to Litang Sichuan-Tibet Highway, five days after which we will follow this line to Chengdu; south is Inagi, This is a Duantou Lu to Inagi up.
Can be seen along the way from the beginning sumdo many of the traditional Tibetan three-story stone building, with stones piled, cool, outside the walls of the Quartet, the overall like a small castle, very impressive. Each village has a pagoda, allegedly in accordance with the standard should be Cuntou Murao 2, an exorcism, a blessing. These pagodas are donated by the villagers to repair the home they lost their precious Calvary sealed Tazuo, as a dedication to the Buddha, so along the innumerable pagodas do not know how much money an embodiment of the Tibetan people, not used in production, construction or improvement of living , but in vain squandering here.
From sumdo to Inagi Inagi the way is an integral part of tourism: This is a clip of one of the two great mountain valley, a Inagi River (salad River) running through, there is a long road is the waterfront and walk parallel to the time, the the rainy season, traffic large waves Fanyong. To the dry season, the current here is unusual quiet, flat clean as a mirror, the reflection of both sides of the scene to do is water, photographers can shoot pretty good in this film; Every entrance to the village, often tall and straight poplar stands around, its graceful curves sketched in the under the blue canopy is difficult to describe difficult to picture, it is sublime to the extreme.
We are all the way south, the sky twilight benefits, refused to take a look at the scenery, only willing to arrive early to the county seat. 8 pm last night, to the west of the bridge, which is blocks bridge, just completed, not yet open to traffic, we can go and no one, not wind, to slip on the deck wearing the past, and this is our journey for the second time dry such a thing, the last time is to walk in Lijiang to Lugu Lake Ninglang when the new road, we have a third time, that is, the day after tomorrow to go is being constructed in Inagi - Aden Road.
Inagi County, Tibetan name is rice dam, which means valley of the plains Mizoguchi, when the Eastern Han Qiang, the early Tang dynasty after the rise of the Tibetan Tubo occupied by the Qing dynasty, belonging to the jurisdiction of Litang toast; Qing Sichuan-Yunnan border Minister Chao In order to try to grow rice, the results slightly Xiaocheng, he hastened to report to the court power, gradually set up in this county, known as the "rice into a" in the final Kangding government jurisdiction; the Republic of China in order to control the Sichuan-Yunnan-Tibet border, built Xikang Province, the "rice into the county" to "Inagi County", was placed under Xikang; 55 years of Tibet's peaceful liberation, Xikang revoked, subsequently transferred to Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Sichuan Province since.
Into the county, from cold and hunger we hurried passers inquired on the Internet found the electric bead family hotel. A very thin high Tibetan public security, said: electricity beads here, a common Tibetan name, you are talking about is not a Trade and Industry Bureau of electric beads? I find the number please call the police had a telephone contact, and so we are approaching a time when electric bead house, they have already seen the power of the Father bead family greeted us at the door.
Father saw the arrival of the guests from afar, was extremely excited, he kept asking us on the road situation, the kind of tone, as if we care about is his own nephew in general, let us four warm spring breezes, as if suddenly returned to the warm rooms of the home, travel fatigue the feeling of a sudden no more. Even sent us to the taxi driver, Father are enthusiastically invited him to drink a bowl of buttered tea, warm body walk, Tibetans and friendly relations between the kind of simple so that those of us who live in a highly commercialized metropolis young people feel like arriving in a completely different beautiful world.
Father let us into the living room, which is a three-tiered Tibetan buildings, the ground floor is a storage room, living room and bedroom are on the second floor, this is the layout of the traditional Tibetan houses. Father let us husband and wife around the fireplace Kaohuo, branded butter tea, end to dry the apple when the real estate to our pad hunger, Father will stay with us to chat with a Tibetan accent Mandarin so that we feel warm. Father surname Luo Rong, in the past served as county secretary and Daocheng county chairman of the CPPCC, now retired; electricity beads was his son, engaged in tax work in the Trade and Industry Bureau. Inagi engage in the tourism industry in these two years, power beads on the family in their own home, hotel, huh.
At this juncture, the master power beads coming back from work, and he long with a dark face, thin build, very sharp eyes, a look that is a very capable person, resting on the two decades before the profiling of the film is definitely a bad person No doubt. We are away from home, to see such a face, you can not help a bit timid. Electric beads talked very polite, but I heard that we have today is only one day at Bristol so I simply ate a little valley egg fried rice, they rush to give us money to meet the meal. At that time the sky is already dark, little things at home, store food market has also long been closed, and he appealed to us to bid farewell to beads, to the city to find someone to give us a meal. We all feel very sorry, do not know how to price a little bit overwhelmed feeling. Though in the family prior to that hotel guests in good faith, but we are after all, people who grew up in the big cities are already accustomed to hypocrisy of a complex relationship between people, once this simple place, once it difficult to completely change the formation of the wariness of others over the years.
Half an hour later, power beads with a meal back, three dirty two elements, as well as soup, very rich. A few days ago we have been in the remote mountain areas, there is nothing to eat something, but only to eat on the trip, where to eat such a delicious meal, really anxious to make all swallow the tongue.
While eating, power beads while asking us travel arrangements. According to our pre-established plan, prepare the next day to find a car to the Geneva, and then package the owner of Aden green iron ratio of car to Aden Nature Reserve. Electric Chu said that there is no problem than iron, they both-law. However, tile is very difficult here to go to Japan: The recent Inagi Aden by the Jiva to the road line of road, tourist bus had been stopped, the only way to can only be chartered from a road construction site to open in the past. Package private car safety factor is low, packet government vehicles will need to contact in advance, was already ten o'clock fast, and they must be wrapped next morning the car is not easy. Here, power bead hat got up and left, saying that to us to find cars. This Kehao: You have just to go out for us did you get food, but also went out at midnight to find car.
Almost to a 11:00 power beads came back to apologize to us that could not be found, because tomorrow there are 71 celebrations, government vehicles are mostly going to participate, I hasten to say: there is no tomorrow, even, and we stroll around the day or in the Inagi bar. Power beads did not say anything, let us rest as soon as possible. Our magnificent bedroom wall full of grain on behalf of auspicious lotus, Aquarius, Pisces and other Tibetan Eight patterns, more people to experience a strong ethnic flavor. The four of us painted a dragon lying on the painting phoenix, Tibetan carved bed, feeling really great.
