D6: Songpan (November 13)
Meimeidishui a sense, the morning went to Terminal 6:50, 7:00 and selling of votes (25 yuan × 2). Car is a very shabby dirty Pakistan, again, only two of us were tourists. Car Kengchikengchi to climbing, I feel the engine to barely, but the driver seems like a very good mood, occasionally roar on Liangsheng always astonished me. It was up and down along the way, riders are locals, there are herders, monks, the Tibetans, and so kept turning. Tibetans wearing robes waist knives, it is not bad thing that they carry, I am pleased to find that there is Tibetan wear knives and we bought very much like Jiuzhaigou. To the period before the road Chuanzhusi higher elevations, the roadside is a lush pine forest, the forest there out of the snow, played a small water Wali junction thin ice, distant peaks stretching, feeling it is from the were so near, there is a short distance further the plot quite in thick snow with one of alpine mountain scenery. Greed look at the scenery, I unwittingly hands and feet Dudong hard place, we know why to Jiuzhaigou in the car the night of severe cold. When approaching Chuanzhusi roadside there a thin stream, I think that is the source of the Minjiang River bar.
For nearly 10 points a car finally climbed into Songpan Terminal. Get off the train must be frozen when we both got dizzy, even forget the Colts on terminal side, but also take the cars tricycles. The results just sit for one minute is up, in vain been cheated of money 1 yuan. Not from a blow in the wake deceived, he was the manager of two cavalry surrounded, and I do not know when an extra hand out two business cards, needless to say, one is usually an Guo Shun Jiang is the happy trails of the Lee Wen-cheng. However, the previous reading online travels, we have decided to participate in a happy trail of Munigou two sea Two-Day Tour, so this solicitation to Shun Jiang battle ended in failure. Such a scene every day, staged competitive ah.
Happy trails on the next to the bus terminal, along the river in its across the street. Two signs are densely packed on the English, apparently in order to attract foreigners. This season, fewer people to ride a lot, happy trails to suggest that we participate in the three-day Munigou, because it is the first time that we would like to participate in a short ride to adapt to adapt Moreover, has arranged a return date, it is still participating on the 2nd item. Afterwards proved that we did not go on the 3rd was so wise, because then dump heavy snow, many people have come back two days. Worked out the next day riding the matters to the Colts before the 9:30 am set, the price is 80 yuan per person per day, including the horses, equipment, eat and use, while an advance payment of 30 yuan per person per day horse fee pay the rest of the ride back again. We asked the boss near where the cavalry could live, he introduced the song State Guest House, 15 yuan per person per day, public bathrooms, no hot water bath, but there are electric blanket. Bath can go to the street in public bathrooms, 3 yuan / person, any time. Pine State Guest House very close from the Colts, just 100 meters inside the gate. The room is very old, looks like built in the seventies, seems to be a supply and marketing cooperatives Guest House. Room, simple equipment, beds of the ups and downs obviously been pressed into, but actually there is a small color TV, the image's pretty clear. Despite the poor conditions, but will anyway, night bar.
To lay down their luggage, I took to the streets teach you Sun, procurement gloves (7 million), thick wool hat (15 yuan 2), the shop owner told us to go Munigou all shook his head, said: Munigou very cool yo. We also bought a highland barley wine (6 bottles of 15 yuan a low degree), Apple (0.8 yuan a catty), halogen yak meat (17 Yuan a pound to buy a pound of more than 23 yuan), etc. horseback needed, by the way in a Muslim noodle tasted Haggis small soup bowl 5 yuan small bowl 3 yuan, taste good, eat a bowl of the warm body. Also in a small bowl Fanpu eat, bowl 3 per small bowl 2 yuan, does not taste too salty.
Back to the hotel, we intend to go to a bath. To which the cavalry along the following roads, roadside pine-lan bathroom home, which was divided into several small rooms, into the small rooms, their clothes, shoes, etc. are all off on the inside, but the moisture inside the heavy, although there are Zhang curtain across, but it is best fitted with a few plastic bags to clothes, or may be wet. The bathroom was quite clean, wash quite in comfort. Washing out, the outside has a coal stove to bake grill wet clothes shoes.
Found in the bathroom next to the bath has a Tibetan teahouse, sell butter tea. I am curious and Sun, we must drink of the Ban Hu (5 million). Store girl gave us the kind of sweet, pour into a small bowl is a light red, smell it to a milk fragrance, drink an ice cream taste like hot, and some small particles. The owner said that inside tea, milk, peanuts and other things break. Quite good to drink, but unfortunately the stomach capacity is limited, and we probably only drink half of it Banhu. Essentially the same pattern of Tibetan teahouse, are the middle of two long low table, surrounded by a circle of low sofas, placed in front of TV or VCD and audio and so on. Where locals come to the teahouse is also a fun way to party, you can play cards, chat, watch TV, Tingting Ge, of course, while Kaohuo side of butter tea to drink deep.
Fan Pu evening to a small dinner, stir-fried vegetables 4 yuan, 10 yuan twice-cooked pork, rice, 1 yuan per person, put a lot of vegetables in pepper (pepper here and there are a large number of eating habits), rice is very hard, and vegetables are very salty, in short, to eat is not all right appetite. The Songpan night was very cold, we went to look for a legendary Alibaba barbecue, but could not find, had to go to an Internet cafe on the one-hour network, the speed kinda fast, 3 yuan / hour.
Songpan is a very little bit of history of the town, still retains the integrity of the east, south, north three gates. Here is the Muslim enclaves, and the streets a lot of halal restaurants, there are also many wearing little white cap of the Moslems. But Aba Songpan is not in the state capital, while in Malcolm, but the tour guide said that after three years, according to Colts will state capital moved to Songpan, I do not know is true or false. Songpan on the street there are many Tibetans, they like to wear robes, bright red waist belt to take root. Tibetan women like to wear a full-length to ankle black robes, wearing a high waist belt of bright red, looked exceptionally slender body shape, very a special beauty.
Songpan people are afraid of the cold, mainly in three habits: First, every household has Kaohuo artifacts, carbon basin, coal stove, electric heater There are various; Second, many women go out with big masks, since there is no sand that is used in the cold; third is the county seat where in addition to school children riding bicycles almost no one is afraid of the cold, so the streets were tricycle.
The strange thing is though Songpan in secluded Tian Han, but they can be rich in vegetables, to describe not only the common vegetables, potatoes, cabbage, green peppers, and even green beans, cucumber, lettuce these varieties, I do not know the local vegetables Songpan canopy species, or shipped elsewhere. Songpan on the street there are many foreigners, although not as much I think I am, but it can be regarded as common. Big man back foreigners accompanied by a giant climbing package, we looked like a seat hill in the mobile, Hehe. Yang Mix reason why they love here, most are designed to ride to experience the original landscape. But the last two years because of the Internet developed, Songpan's fame has gradually spread among the Chinese tourists come here to clear many of their fellow riding up.
