July 1: Inagi - Jiva - Aden - Tara Sea - Chonggu Si - Luorongniuchang 8:00 departure, ride a Beijing Jeep to the Geneva Township. Today, as yesterday, are cloudless weather, the sky blue tile blue tile, hot, in that people feel particularly comfortable alpine region. Our hearts are all looking forward to tomorrow, on the Gulf of Aden when the weather can be so, so that we can get rid of Snow Mountain in Yunnan, one did not see the shadows and give a good taste of what Aden 3 Kamiyama presence.
Car over a salad into the construction of grassland on the clear section. The so-called construction area is certainly not every m are dug, but almost had several 100 meters there is an operating segment is completely far from any road, but just a bunch of solidification of the mud, cars can only be moved forward little by little, It is estimated that faster than walking; if not the operating segment, the road most have been opened, leaving only the narrow side for construction vehicles through the car a maximum speed of only 20 km.
If the road is just hard to walk no problem, after all, cars have been moved forward and touched the following two cases let you completely Meipi Qi: the first is to run into the opposite car, when in a narrow space have to look further gap to the wrong car, often get bogged down a long period of time; even more terrifying is that some paragraphs in the winding mountain road construction to demolition of a mountain to widen the road, and you happen to catch it in the buried explosives, then it and the other bar, always have to wait until a loud crash, can begin after the smoke has cleared over car.
And unfortunately we gave these two kinds of things hit, and 50 kilometers of the road three and a half hours to go to, with an average speed of less than 15 km. I also finally understand why the Government to ban travel Daocheng team into the mountains during the construction period. Here there have been a daily round-trip shuttle Iveco Daocheng - Day watts, and now have all been stopped. Such a terrible road team, where the lords of those wives have asked them to come to Miss son will not come. County government faced up to the expense of a few months of tourism revenues, sealing off scenic traffic, speed up the construction schedule, and strive for gold in the 11 weeks before the completion of the welcoming again. The four of us belong to FIT, but also the individual into the mountains, it was later to link FIT Mix that in August have been sent abroad ceremony, and when I wrote this travelogue, the National Day approaching, I wonder if Mr WONG told us, " September 25 completion "program finally realized no, Aden has never again open to visitors.
11:30 arrival at the Geneva Township, which is a town, probably not a village south of the large, there is only one street, that is, through the town, but after the rice sub-roads. After this morning's bumpy, and we and they are tired and thirsty, plus being hot noon sun to sun down sinister, more people can not stand. We quickly got into the roadside green Aden, which is at the Geneva Township, one of the famous two hotels, and the other home is across the Trinity wishful accommodation shop. Aden is a green street shops and kiosks, food left behind as the rooms have a small building, this three co-enclosed building a small parking lot, which is quite spacious. Aden's boss called the green iron ratio and iron than the wife is the sister of Mrs. Pearl electricity. They are a total of four sisters, in addition to these two, we also saw a small daughter, reading from Chengdu back home to live in electrical beads; the other is probably married in the area of Kangding. The green Gulf of Aden is an iron-ratio and a partner opened his wife's mother (so I called her boss the inconvenience. Daocheng have seen in the face, does not look like the Tibetans, but rather a Han female cadres), together with the power beads Aden has always been Inagi provide one-stop services to tourists, electricity is responsible for Inagi beads, iron, this one than the charge of Aden.
Our green Aden severely eat dinner, is no longer being Chishimehao things, but after feeling into the Gulf of Aden could supply more difficult, or are now trying to fill the belly bar. Rail bosses over half-eaten back, I should first take along a letter for his mother to him, he read did not say anything, ask how we are prepared to go into the mountains. We have previously thought to Aden, Yemen, the Geneva road, caused a sensation, can not take cars, plus heard that this section of track riding up the mountain is very good, could have been ready to ride, but there is a great difficulty is: riding up the mountain was six hours, If we do this standpoint, to have 67 points in the Daya Ding Village, and went to Chong Gusi camp, then a job for more than nine, from both physical and timing a little difficult. Rail Road than he did in the repair, but yesterday he had just sent up before the guests, if there is no collapse, then good luck can be had, as long as two hours can go to Aden cloudy dam; course, once the obstacles encountered trying to find fault, and then down again Hill may be too late to find right away, even if a waste of time this afternoon, and we have to spend the night in the green of Aden, which is a variable. Discuss with me and we decided to bet he's one, for another try this road. In addition, from the cost to consider, riding on the Long-long dam 88 yuan per person, while the chartered 250, or a cheaper car. Eaten a meal, we bought green Aden canteen full of water and dry food, then squeeze onto the iron than the start of the Beijing Jeep.
On the road know tough. Someday, when tiles are basically flat Valley Road, upstream, the slope is not; which is a whole way to the Gulf of Aden almost all winding Road, together with the whole trip, the road, you can drive very difficult. In some areas a forklift is intense work, we have to wait at the side of the road so that it can be cleaned in the past. The meal had a driver to us to attract business, and we did not, he will be carrying a few tourists about half an hour ahead of our departure, the result was that we catch up halfway. His small sedan under the off-road vehicles in this road is not simply to open up, but added some of our handy Beijing Jeep. Before he came here to see the online rumors that iron only two more than the car driver, I can not help wondering: If two-wheel drive Jeep do it fairly? Later, saw at least not the case know it is a good four-wheel drive car, horsepower, braking does not depend on context.
Panshan Road on the first time we saw Xiannai Ri, Po-phase solemnly sit in the clouds, to see her at first sight I will give quells. Iron than while driving that it is their hearts Tibetan holy mountains, is the embodiment of Buddha, but also means to me to see where was the first Where is Where is the arm and shoulder, full of reverence. The one hand I enjoy the one hand, feel a little guilty about: sitting in the back of Junxiong, De Kun, Chen Ying-I would not have had such a good perspective.
For the tourists, Aden has two points: 3 Kamiyama and three holy lakes. 3 Kamiyama Xuefeng said to be in the eighth century AD by Padmasambhava master set off and to whom the three Buddha named Xian Nairi North Peak (elevation 6032 meters), such as the Buddha sat on a lotus pedestal, which means Goddess of Mercy; South Feng Yang Maiyong (elevation 5958 meters), is a cone of the Koho, meaning Manjusri; Higashimine Xianuoduoji (elevation 5958 meters), meaning Vajrapani. This three sacred hills in Tibetan Buddhism there is a high position, by a long list of books recorded in the virtue of mountain worship, such as just around the mountain at the foot of Chonggu Si turn 15 laps is equivalent to chanting one hundred million times, even said that around Kamiyama three weeks, equivalent to more than offset the evil murder of eight lives. Results before liberation bandits here, over and over, after the murder and arson in droves to the Mt cleared of criminal - but having said that, the bandits of Buddhist devotees is better than no good if a little bit of Buddhist devotees.
As for the three divine lake, respectively Xiannai Ri at the foot of pearl sea, Yang Maiyong colored sea and milk at the foot of the sea. We'll wait to visit will be pearl sea, the evening will be surrounded by three Kamiyama Luorongniuchang camping here and do not worry say.
He visited the Xian Nairi a long time immersed in the holy mountains, the rotor a look, I suddenly noted that the slopes on both sides of the winding Road is "the dark forest", listen to iron than that this is a result of past forest fires. I can not help but think: This large-scale fires after the land must be very fertile (slash and burn is this reason), why do not immediately to forestry? The death of the tree is the mountain where the upright shaft, both visually intrusive and not easy to grow new trees.
Gossipy few Syria more than three in the afternoon we arrived at Aden Long-long dam, which is the village of Aden, 3700 meters above sea level. This is a small Tibetan village, over here started into the mountains along the way on the little village of. Yamaguchi has a toll booth, a woman named Yang tube tickets. Chen Ying saw her slap a Cold War, and quietly asked me if it is not even typical of Sichuan Women's: a thin Nennen Fenlian dressed, but conceal the kind of revealing to the shrewd cunning bones. I can not say anything, just push the "I do not know," trouble.
Tickets's emotional expensive, 128 dollars a person, four of us at once to pay off more than 500 pieces, and no student tickets. Unhappy to pay the money that I think of it finished: Actually, I can say that we have asked the Authority, Mr WONG Aden - her immediate supervisor, he said that the students can buy half-price ticket, must have also have a few into the grasp. Oh, wise after the event, not worth mentioning.
Bought the tickets, the following have to look for horses and luggage up the mountains. Long-long dam from Aden, a horse groom the price of 130, we discussed a bit and decided to hire a horse baggage, their own foot. The problem is when we went to a horse did not, and I do not know because Inagi roads, no tourists but not caravans stationed up here, or because the horses have been up the mountains. In desperation, iron than hired two people to help us back luggage, brother and sister, but also 130. We work hand in hand with the iron than in the 17 o'clock tomorrow to meet back at the Geneva Yamaguchi Aden, then starting up the mountains.
From the pass to the Chonggu Si is a forest trail, slope is not, those of us on foot guy had Mingyong certainly do not have a problem. Roadside often Mani Dui, yes, writing so many days I have not mentioned Mani Dui do it with the Tibetan Buddhism, is generally like a pile of stones, of course, very beautiful, and sometimes on top of plug the streamer. Typically, each village will have a Tibetan village in Mani Dui, if not, then there must be some of the pagoda. Tibetans are anti-clockwise around the Mani Dui Pre-trip circle, passing the village of Mani Dui other will go to perimeter, which is equivalent to the sixth again read a few lines, could be Buddha bless bon voyage. In addition to circling, the streamer is also written in the sixth a few lines, as long as Kazamaki what are the equivalent of read it again; the temple wall, a big slide on end often by the barrel, you turn it a circle can be considered again (the result we group of people where there are several really see one another not put it straight to the temple prayer wheels turn down one by one, bitter), even worse, a few lines in the water on board inscribed with the sixth result, the river has continually chanting for him a. . . . . . I do not know how these hard-working and courageous Tibetans thought out.
Probably walked a half hours to reach Chonggu Si junction, go straight here is Luorongniuchang, Xianuoduoji the direction of the road before us is beckoning; the right forks in the road leading to the Chonggu Si and pearl sea (Zhuo Mala wrong, I do not only too well what its Chinese translation, but also said that Yang Maiyong at the foot of the sea pearl). Not yet reached the intersection there are many tents, the so-called Chonggu Si camp, there are many side road junctions engraved stone scriptures, scattered in heaps together, I do not know what is intended. I think these pieces of stone, may be somewhat archaeological heritage, the relevant departments, or to collect and collate up to be good, or in the future very easy to lost tourists.
We have to Zhuo Mala wrong fork in the road, backpack young man (I'm sorry we do not know him and his sister's name) took us to go the paths, vegetation dense, relatively narrow, difficult to take the idea is not to mention, but here, after all, an elevation very high (3960 meters), to go up a little breathless. When arrived at the lake, have yet to see the lake, first withered into a black eye, dried tree behind the mirrored Yihong vibrant green water, that is, Zhuo Mala wrong.
Three holy lakes each have their own color, Zhuo Mala wrong is a very pure Bi-deep green, the color of both the lake itself, but also with the surrounding jungle-related; milk sea height junji colored sea, surrounded by almost no vegetation, of course, there is no such lush colors of life.
Zhuo Mala wrong on three sides is a quiet forest on one side and look up at the majestic holy Xian Nairi Kamiyama, exposure of the office is like a fairyland, it is a non-stick the slightest from the reality of America is a quiet office at the people clean up the physical and psychological purify the soul of America is a lay of the pen can not be expressed in the United States, I attempt to describe here, she is extremely stupid, extremely unnecessary, overreaching himself to the extreme.
We linger for a long time the lake did not leave the holy lake, on the return we walk the road, after the famous Chonggu Si. 3880 meters above sea level, fame of the Chonggu Si looks more like a small courtyard, where the lamas, a rather handsome Kamba guy took us to visit the temple. Legend has Jiegong monk felt a mistake to life enshrined Kamiyama, Buddha's teaching, in this construction of the temple, because the ground-breaking digging stone risk the wrath of the gods, and the scourge of the people come around, leprosy epidemic. They feel a mistake all day long chanting Jie Gong Song Buddha, cast magic, begging the gods down disaster on their own to relieve the people of the disaster. His move has finally touched the hearts of the gods mercy, the people safe, he passed away while suffering from leprosy. The Spirit of bone buried in the Temple for many years for many generations of monks worship.
Chonggu Si starting from today, we continue to camp - Luorongniuchang departure. Chonggu Si compared with the previous period stretches on the open road a lot, on both sides from time to time there are large areas of pastures, roads are not is difficult to go, we are still Xiannai Ri midway foot rest for a while, both Tibetan brothers and sisters off his backpack on the ground, Unlike those of us Chinese sat on the floor, they lie on the grass directly to total relaxation. I took the smoke (which I bought at the Shilin, "Communication smoke", specifically designed with the fraternal peoples "good feelings", and we will be 12 individuals may not have a smoke), young man contentedly puff the environment are all lost somewhere along the hard time to go, and this is probably the Tibetan people's life-style bar.
With three other Tibetans break, and I give them respect of tobacco smoke, when they took only a faint to thank about, there is no Han Shared polite, but can deliver to you the gratitude that is difficult to explain in words Love can not help but remind me of the garden where in that Toshio Inagi sub-glucose are very similar to the expression of Tibetan children. When I came back many times have tried to recall and explain the kind of expression, after all, but to no avail, perhaps this reflects the mysteries of Tibetan culture.
Reach an elevation of 4,000 meters at six in the Luorongniuchang camping. That was a beautiful place: 3 Kamiyama Surrounded by a wide pastures, can be said Aden, a microcosm of scenery. Luorongniuchang camp, a dozen tents, and other affairs is a Meishan, Sichuan people, surnamed Zhang, quite cheerful enthusiasm, giving us two dishes fried feast, but also accompanied chatted for a long time, saying that he abide by a person In the mountains, and now is the off-season, not many visitors a day, it is the wife and kids miss home, but also to take pictures of his children to us, saying that a very good preparation for further studies to Chengdu to study. As early as he did not see the sky burning feet of water to us. Hot hot meals, which could have been far beyond my pre-camp expectations of Aden on, it is extremely hard-line transmission of Aden was also so Well.
Back to the tent to sleep, tents are supported with steel beds, two rows of shops Chase can sleep a total of 12 individuals, usually covered with a bed mattress, guests will each be made of the two quilts a sleeping bag, two blankets a pad 1 cover, and then further sleeping bag and a drill, may this is still cold. I am middle of the night I called roll, rolled my shop, and Toshio shop in the middle, this part is only a mattress Dianzhe, but also cold wave, immediately took me to the cold woke up. Can was still drowsily, and also did not study why so cold, so it will be barely slept a result, no slept after midnight. Fortunately, young and healthy well built, otherwise the next day on the 5,000 m in trouble.
