Labor Day holiday this year, has finally arranged for him to Aden, even though friends say the most beautiful scenery in October, but we can all see that the landscape at that time, what does this mean? Take a look at Aden in May it not also a kind of experience do?
To seek prior to the new South Gate bus stop one ask, there are as many direct Inagi shuttle, that's great! Hastened to buy a ticket, the first to get the front position, arduous journey for the entire set a good start.
May 1. Carrying a heavy backpack, four of our party boarded the bus bound for Inagi began our trip to Shangri-La.
Car Yes, Yutong buses, comfort and closed nature of both is good, the driver was a young man appears to be more quiet, talk to know that he is under the tour bus is designed to open the. Well, seems on the road issue should be asked to stop at little bar camera.
11 am, car out of Chengdu, along the highway speeding into the elegant, 16:00 off the car to the famous Erlang Mountain Tunnel, which is now the longest highway tunnel, length of 4176 meters, the original vehicle and Erlang needs and crosses the line, the road is very dangerous, is also a long time, but now, just a few minutes, we crossed the lofty high Erlang. Looked away back to the tunnel, can not help feeling some pain in putting the year of road construction workers and even lose their lives, they probably would not mind but now they do not need them so they built the road, right?
A tunnel, suddenly there are holes before the hole feeling after the two different worlds - the original gray skies blue immediately became clear, the air becomes dry, the roadside vegetation has become dominated by coniferous and broad-leaved plants broad-leaved mixed. All of this tells us that have entered the border of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
From Luding to Kangding road all in renovation, poor road conditions, car dealers very slowly, but said that in October after the completion of the situation will be improved, when the time from Chengdu to Kangding only 56 hours, and now, we have 20:00 minutes before reaching the YO-YO the Kangding city.
May 2. In order to be able to arrive the same day Daocheng (Litang arriving after 16:00 will not be allowed to continue driving), we set off early after six o'clock. After the car out of Kangding, we started climbing, which is a lot of User in the online article mentioned several times by folding along the path of rugged mountainous (elevation 4298 meters)! However, perhaps because I was born in northern Sichuan mountains were the reason, I felt very good way, not at risk - the roadside are the gentle slope, not a cliff or something, asphalt road traffic is also quite good. However, the folded mountainous scenery is really the United States, when the dealers to the hillside, when Yaokan opposite peaks, blanketed by trees, mountains and white clouds hovering good a snow-capped mountains clouds map! We quickly asked the driver to stop, and have a one-pass shot addiction.
After the turn the fold is the famous mountainous xinduqiao - photography heaven, but when we went to the sky too early, but not the best in autumn, the grass still green, the tree has not yellow and did not present us with an intoxicating scenery, so with regret that we had resumed.
Xinduqiao climb from the altitude of 4412 meters of the Gore Terayama, after Yajiang county, and then after 4696 meters of scissors curved mountain, 4971 meters of the clamps pull-Hill, came to town known as the world's highest - Litang. Along the way apart from the ongoing thing that catches the eye Cangshan, sea of clouds, grasslands, cattle and sheep than it was the same car a little girl constantly called upon by his mother, "Snow! Snow!!."
Litang county seat is located in a plain, taking into showing a picture of grasslands and Gobi, high-altitude sun is very strong, tan people could not open eyes. Small town, a main street on both sides of the building and the mainland there is no 2-induced small county, the other on all the towers of the Tibetan. Distance rolling clouds around his belt at the foot of the mountain is a vast grassland, yaks in some sporadically to find their own food, sprinkle a few from time to time from the first small yak-Huan. This season is a plateau winter to spring, when animals are aware of good times coming to Liu Qiyue were grass-green grasslands, and flowers of the time, the Chinese mining movement symphony of life should be staged, but now It is ready to warm-up time.
To Litang, when three of the same car under the car of Friends of Canton Brigade - one of the girls reacted strongly to the plateau and had to to the hospital. Fortunately, other people do not have anything, we continue our journey.
Left Litang, also left the 318 national highway, the road immediately in front of miserable, stone building on the dirt road has been dug around too bumpy, dust-yang-day sky, and the car violently bumpy, the original not long ago, Premier Zhu's visit Ganzi, the request this year Ganzi Prefecture in the road to build, so now in full swing so began the destruction of - the backward areas has always been in place in order to seek funds for a one-time solution is in full swing, and regardless of whether we can bear the bad road. The only way to deal with this road is - sleep! So in the Hun Hun, the 21 o'clock, we arrived with a dust Daocheng.
May 3. As the holiday time is limited, we have to abandon plans to tour in Inagi morning, boarded the 7:00 to Aden car. Rice, like Asian Highway is also in full swing to "destroyed", just 110 km of the road, the driver said to be open six hours! One can imagine how the road conditions. Here the road has reached the standard in my mind, dangerous - rolling in the mountains of bad road, one side is a cliff, one side is a cliff, looked out the window in and saw the abyss! Girlfriend can not help but firmly grasp my hand, I think she may be considering turning down the event of vehicle, then the body will look good question. In this path, we come to understand the impact of dust on the lungs - even clutching his mask and choking dust of people are still continue to rinse the lungs, breathing becomes a very obnoxious and had to whom things , I think, next time come with a mask is not enough, and have to wear a gas mask! Drivers may be in order to alleviate our suffering, despite the dangerously high-speed forward, the so-called high-speed, it was no faster than 20 kilometers per hour on only 12 kilometers. Finally, 12:30, a car 16 gray people, came to our coveted the last Shangri-la - Aden Nature Reserve.
