Several years ago, from a newspaper travel column first saw "Inagi," the name, think that it must be a beautiful place, because just the name itself is a golden. A few years later, I am the Holy Land from the hearts of the tourists come back, full of feelings, it is difficult speech. I know that, even if I did not write it down, and I will never forget this experience, just as the memory of the Qinghai Lake, like so long, then a dark blue or clearly printed in my mind, sparkling in the sun touching light.
Originally Inagi next year I plan to go, but 51 did not take place in Yunnan trip, I and A 2 do not intend to compare between the U.S., having brought the fall Inagi decided to go the National Day holiday this year, Inagi. From the end of August began to search the information on the Internet, almost all of the sites have been trampled all over me, and right Inagi impression gradually became clear from the vague, but the description of the site on Inagi many photographs rarely, as a peerless beauty, seen her in person said the US ah America can be a separate number from her eyes and mouth you're in the end she can not see any real extent of the United States into, so wait for them to immediately see above her side.
I determined early on this line, Guangzhou - Chengdu - Kangding - Inagi - Aden - Inagi - xinduqiao - Danba - Chengdu - Guangzhou, 12 days, the budget RMB 5000. Route, to be good after I and A are set separately, move the tour, unexpected reactions have been extraordinarily good, the final trip there are 8 people. My original intention was self-help tour bus ride, but we later discovered that eight individuals or pack a van more convenient, so we have a local travel agency in Sichuan booked a van 11 of the Gold Cup. Later it transpired that this decision is very correct, because the scenery most of the road, missed a real pity.
There are many concerns before the trip, all the people who went to Inagi will survived the trip, as described in general: altitude sickness, lice, mud road ... probably do a good job of psychological preparation, I think, in fact, after experiencing better than expected too more than all the concerns about the 11 be resolved.
We will never forget this journey, from September 26, 2002 start.
2002/9/26 Guangzhou - Chengdu, The Great Escape
Sat 19:30 (CZ3483) flight to Chengdu, living in the Lake of days through a travel agent booking hotels, four humans, 20 yuan / person also include breakfast, we all feel very cheap. Conditions, it can not be good, especially since I do not care after seeing bloodstains on the sheets, but I thought this may be the best that we live in a night, also at ease.
Most of us are the first to this land of abundance, so we say good to eat after going to Chengdu, the famous mandarin duck pot. However, late aircraft, coupled with the airport to the city half an hour away, we stay there after 11:00 a. Everyone feels that too late, so we slept a bath, after all, Chengdu is only a stage in our journey only.
September 27, 2002 Chengdu - xinduqiao (556KM) Midnight Run
We are afraid of the road and Aden without food, and starting to go Carrefour purchased a large box of fast food noodles, ham, chocolate, fruit (which proved that we not worry about these things that we eat in Guangzhou had not finished). Orthogonal time-consuming to travel, met a girl just returned Aden, and a look of exhaustion. She told us that the above bad weather, snow hail, what can not see, she just shot a roll of film and more. As a result, we face even more filled with the "worry." Aden had heard that the variable weather conditions, very few people can see real Yan Kamiyama, it seems word. I do not know how lucky we are? I always thought that, after several months of planning and expectations, and I Inagi already have a tacit agreement, she will show her to me the most beautiful face, I will not be disappointed. I was so blindly confident. Facts have proved that my confidence is what is correct.
Hostels in charge of people told us that due to traffic control, we can not take MS Contin, and go north line, to xinduqiao live. I do not want to miss Kangding, and Yaan, Kangding, Erlang Mountain Tunnel, Luding, these are familiar names on the travels, but also talked about online September 20 there will be no traffic control, ah! But it is a fact, I can not with him the theory. Fear of travel delay, we are not willing to wait for one day, had reluctantly agreed, but we insist that came back or came back from the Northern line.
Such a toss, we start already noon. Our Zheng driver about 40 years old, black thin, and looks simple and honest. A total of 566 kilometers from Chengdu to xinduqiao are mountain. To be honest, I have no confidence in the day went to xinduqiao, but it can only be considered where the Zouna.
Soon out of Chengdu, we encountered a traffic jam. In the dark of the tunnel blocked for nearly an hour. We are now also very energetic, so open the camp lights began to take turns singing. Cars slowly crawling around in a sudden death of the fire, and want us to cart off. At this time we can not help the situation of the car started right up and started to worry, it can take us on the Aden do?
The next thing, my impression has been very vague, that is, constant hurry hurry, and soon the dark days down. Before sunset, we pass the first stop on a high altitude - snow Balang Shan (4523 meters). Balang Shan's Yakou solemn, magnificent, beautiful. I began to excited, but we do not have altitude sickness that I thought the height of 4,500 meters, also much better than ah!
In order to hurry, we do not even eat dinner. Night where, after Xiaojin, Danba, eight United States, tower the public, and finally arrived in the middle of the night 2:00 xinduqiao. We had a very old cars into the Bin Yue Hotel, a door is a simple toilet, and my heart secretly crying (from Inagi back again this hotel, everyone gathers around to the toilet a). So late, and there is no energy to be critical of anything, but the driver said that this is the best local restaurants had. Frantic hurry, and we all went to the brink of collapse. We exhausted the car underground, cold surface from attack. Indiscriminately eat more rice then went to bed. 4 humans, in addition to blanket the bed nothing, 35 yuan / person.
Although tired, but I have a feeling he would not sleep. From a few nights before departure the beginning I started to get excited to sleep. Sure enough, eventually finding a long time, was still conscious enough, blanket hot downright irritating. Going to be head up and look for flashlight to the toilet, can not think of A is also awake, so get out of bed to go with me. Came back suddenly felt dizzy Yu Tu, uncomfortable anomaly. I did not know how much xinduqiao elevation (later know is about 3,500 meters), only know that certainly not more than 4000 meters. God, that this is so sad, and how to Inagi that do? I do not know can not go tomorrow? Then could not help but vomit, but comfortable. Last until dawn, get up, they discovered that the state is not too good, I do not know too tired, or altitude sickness, have a headache. I started to feel that refreshing.
Xinduqiao has been hailed as photography to Heaven, we came back even pass, so did not look carefully on the left. Allowed to gaze longingly into the snow-capped mountains, I took to Sichuan after the first photos.
