This article was posted by a friend once, and now recall some anecdote has parallels with share.
"Tibet" This place in the primary school have been heard, but felt that time away from their own far, far away, as if on my next days, this place forever and I can not be related to any relationship.
As time went on, from textbooks, newspapers, on TV and magazines to learn more about Tibet, the first passive, the latter is active, and finally from a variety of possible ways to gather relevant information hungry. To the university, and I have already started to plan trip to Tibet.
Tibet's unique geographical environment and a mysterious religious atmosphere, deeply attracted me, so I feel in my heart of Tibet has become increasingly important. I planned five years later, I decided to quit working for three years, live, drop everything, about the best friend, in the year of the millennium into the arms of the mysterious Tibet. Although the journey difficult, but everything is so worthy of 11's with his right.
July 8: In the morning, me and three girls boarded the train to go to Kunming. As the saying goes good, three girls in a Market. Along the way we play poker, chat, eat things, day and a half in laughter in the slip. In fact, traveling abroad, if time allows, in many modes of transport, I would choose to train.
Train feeling quite good. In the small sleeping space, you can encounter all kinds of OK friends, chatting, broaden their horizons. If you do not like it, you can buy a whole bunch of magazines, fed slowly to enjoy the shops or sitting on the window side, careful attention to the way the different landscape scenery, really do not have some flavor.
July 9: There are still three hours before to Kunming, Kunming area we have hastened to turn the map to find a place to stay tonight. Kunming, on the train a lot of people-friendly, know that we are to travel, they enthusiastically for our money to meet the hotel thing. 18 o'clock we arrived at Kunming more. Introduction from a friend on the train, we moved into a widely Park Hotel, ready to fly the next day's morning flight Zhongdian. A night without words, because catch an early flight, we are only in the vicinity of the famous XX Park (designed for tourists, and there was a great one stage in the evening hours there is Yunnan's folk dance performances) to eat authentic noodle on bridge an early rest.
This excursion is not a destination in Yunnan, so we have not considered in Kunming, Yunnan Province, or in other places.
July 10: 7:00 am aircraft is flying over from Kunming Zhongdian. The morning, finishing a good pack, in the cool upper street about 10 minutes, until suddenly the van was found yesterday's appointment had flown us. We are really a bit helpless.
5:00 am Multi-Kunming streets, quiet, and only occasionally a car driver. Backpack is too big, too heavy, hard to find two taxis, one grabbing foot cars, and we hung the heart can finally put down.
Speeding taxi arrived at the airport, something unexpected has happened. We even can not find the ride that flight Checkin place. Zhe Xiake Oh! The few of us have to find separately, and the back of a large Backpack, it can really feel good taste. Asked a lot of people, finally found us tickets to the deceived. End of the ticket is written, is Zhongdian, while the airport is displayed as Diqing, due to their own uninformed, let us indeed a false alarm, thinking to canceled flights. To the excess baggage security check, I really admire himself, obediently, I Backpack feet are 17Kg, can not think of bar! Around noon, we are finally in Guangzhou with the appointment of four men in Zhongdian poly head.
This is a few men have been with the tour Zhongdian waited for us for several days. As they say, If we do not come, they should have eaten chicken Zhongdian. Indeed, we came to the first meal, they took us to eat wild mushroom + chicken pot. M. .., and that taste is fantastic! It seems they are still tasty and will eat the people.
(Off-topic: We have only met two times prior to departure with the travel of the men, one to be talking about travel routes, a rental deposit to be paid. Before, we simply do not understand that they are and whatever their occupation. We have a common interested partners, both sides trust each other. after my colleagues and friends all say, you will be such a trust in strangers. I said yes. As the journey, we asked the men with the tour: "you will be so confident in putting a few thousand blocks of money to a stranger? "They responded:" Look, you not going to put our money taken away. "angle, although the development of society, increased the distance between people, but the trust still exists in some place.)
Zhongdian is a small place, basically a big road throughout the center of Zhongdian. A small place there is a good little place. The city people are living a leisurely life of freedom, unlike people in big cities, we must replace Ji Chongchong the pace early in the morning. In determining the vehicle and the road, we in the agricultural markets and shops to buy some of Tibet's dry food and drinking water (those things enough to make us eat half a month) to prepare tomorrow's departure ceremony.
Although Zhongdian is a small place, but here is quite convenient bank money, a credit card, less than 10 minutes to cash on hand of. Indeed than the big cities, some banks also moved quickly.
July 11: Weather is not a very good day shade, and also it began to drizzle. The morning, we have eight people to a few people feel a bit cold. This is not neglect, but not at all, because we have been living in the plateau of Diqing. Medicine is inevitable. Nonetheless, high emotions, but we are not the slightest affected.
We could not even hire the driver and his entourage of 10 two Toyota jeeps, and finally embarked on the road to Tibet. Two drivers are the local Tibetans, according to local custom, we must first Songzanlinsi near the prayers to pray for a safe journey home .. we live in is already in the Zhongdian plateau, fortunately we have not altitude sickness, cold does have a point, but the medicine to eat on a hook. Thanks God!
The weather is still bad, heavy moisture, but that did not affect our high emotions. Leaving Zhongdian, the mountain continued to rise, dense forests haunted by bursts of mist, as if we are straying into Alice in Wonderland-like novel. Che Xingzhi mountains somewhere, we encountered a heavy fog, visibility down to 5-8 meters at once, as this is our first time in the high mountains under the conditions of this journey in mind, some can not help but fear. But then we found a large roadside slopes Shanghao wild flowers, red, yellow, such as Fuchsia, in such a wonderland in a very aroused love and affection.
The car ahead, landscape slowly changed, the original forests transform into a rugged mountains bare sand, the weather became dry from wet, the sun came out.
Our car has been running in the transverse mountain road is poor, wandering between the speed at 20-40 km. Occasionally, when the car stopped, you can really feel what mountains. Highway gently like a ribbon around the mountain side. Strong exposure to the sun, under a barren mountain blocks stretching, giving a false feeling. It is this untrue, so that you feel like being in a model of military operations which, a little pointing Jiangshan taste.
Climb up to the moon, while we are still rushing night in the Lancang River Road. 11 pm or so, we have finally entered the territory of Tibet, arrived in Yunnan-Tibet Highway in Tibet's first town - the town of Salt. Day's bumpy day's dust, the time we reached the accommodation has been a hot-water supply time. But our driver who was a heart, to find a place where you can bathe in hot springs bath. Although we have yet to eat dinner, but everything after we wash the comfort of a good hot shower then we'll talk!
July 12: Car left the riverside, but also on the Po Shan Road. Hill is still the towering mountains that the road is kind of bumpy. 800-1000 meters under the peak is still accompanied by the line of the Lancang River. And the car in such an environment feel a tiny.
The collapse of the stone mountains encountered on their way blocked our way. Road maintenance workers are using bulldozers to push away the stone. Landslides such things in the Yunnan-Tibet, Sichuan-Tibet Highway have occurred, a small piece of stone fell, the big ones, the whole road is gone. Taking advantage of such opportunities, and we chatted up with the track maintenance workers. They told us: when they can often Youxiong road, deer, squirrels appear.
The afternoon, we had a long way. I do not know whether it is actually quite road. Car stuck between two mountain walk through, which was recently caught in the middle of the flood washed out to the mountains, there are 70-80 meters wide. Road workers and soldiers have started to get busy, and engineering vehicles from time to time during the shuttle. However, the road can really be found.
Road is not good to go. Days did not black, we are in a little place called bamboo card inside stay there in the depot. It was a place surrounded by mountains, the depot just in the basin were. Stationed there for 13 years listening to the company commander said that because of the mountains, where the winter is not too cold.
We are very fortunate to pick four girls to a room without locks. While living in barracks, but we dare not take it lightly, the results of all of the backpacks are used in the Ding Men's sake.
July 13: get up early, we ate breakfast after the departure of non-stop. The afternoon, we found a nice little bay landscape, we discussed a moment and decided to camp here. For the first time in the wilderness camping is, indeed, let us live in the city who used to excited.
The formation of a natural division of labor, and a small driver and a male compatriots drove to a nearby village to buy pots and firewood, others tie tent. Fellow men, confident, bar tents for them to do work for those who are pediatric thing. However, one thing is not so open the tent. Is not a top-mounted anti-, that is, anti-stent installed, and anyway, only then the first one is busy trying to get a good tent installed. With the first, second, third, things got much better.
Tents well-being, and we can not Xianxia Lai. At this time, the driver like a magic-like out of the nets, so that fellow men hanging net fishing, and we pick up tonight light a fire in the vicinity of the firewood. Fishing harvest can be really good, 10-to-minute appearance, has been hit by more than 20 fish in the ranks.
Though this is the July days, but no matter what time in Tibet, the river is very cold. Because those are the snow-capped mountains of the melt-water.
Bonfire lit our shiny red face, and everyone immersed in the joyful atmosphere. In the Sandy Lam's "At least you are" singing under the driver and the old Fei Mei danced. Instant noodles, canned food, sausage, handcuffed fish, fish soup, it really enriched; singing, laughing, bustling; there was a bright moon hanging in the sky, but also secretly hiding in the clouds We are the envy it!
We are tired, night is also silent. Middle of the night after midnight, but the next day from a heavy rain.
July 14: We did not encounter good weather camping. The morning, the four of us found a tent outside the ocean, rucksacks and clothes are all wet. We discovered last night, did not check at the entrance of the tent zipper pull good. Later, Fei Mei also told us that she was a little no sleep at night. Because of the rain too much, and she worried that tent water, so moisture from time to time to test it under the hand is wet. Fortunately, we have not been soaked in water. A place to camp clean-up into the original appearance, we set off.
We recognize that the way to the Ran Wuhu a small driver known as "Snow Iko," so lovely, fat, and hear the driver say that this animal is to eat herbs big, so is extremely nourishing. But having listened to peer fellow men say that this animal is dry skin disease in Guangzhou have been causing ups and downs.
Clear understanding of Uzbekistan night we checked into the depot, the depot's vice station Let's treatment of female compatriots will enjoy a head - we four girls were admitted to the two double rooms, which was the head of the lounge (the sign outside reads "Executive Lounge") it!
July 15: the driver was right, Ran Wuhu is indeed a beautiful place. Lake green hills, the water calm as a mirror, while the distant snow-capped mountains in the clouds little shy of half of his face exposed. We are walking beat, and sometimes climb climb low, with the murder of film from different angles. When I was in hiking only when I really felt on the plateau, each rising a few meters, I would have Qichuanruniu feeling.
Originally intended to camp at the lake, due to not buy the sheep, plans had fizzled out of. In fact, the mountain lake there are groups of sheep, but we called the Lao Bantian, I could not find a shepherd. It seems our luck too well.
The evening, the driver let us put on eye drops to visit a Tibetan village. The beginning of the Tibetan children shyly looked at us, strange and scared. No matter how we express friendship, they are still standing a distance away from us. Our driver had to try to use a small Tibetan Tibetan language to talk with them, although the local accent is different After some efforts, the gap between us was soon dispelled. Children are no longer as escape, as the beginning, but still very shy to take away from our hands eye drops and food.
July 16: Since today is basically to go back now, we have decided to study the Tibetan language to small drivers. However, we found that the Tibetan language than English, and even harder to learn than French, and some sound so you do not do not understand what parts of it in the end is sent to. Example, a "nose" in the small driver taught us Lao Bantian, only one person could give more accurate sound, the other three are how the sound is wrong. Daoshi we teach English to small drivers, the smooth, basically he can not have our correct his pronunciation is really interested.
From Ran Wu went to Qamdo the way we bang through the grasslands to see the most complete one full lunar eclipse. We are a small car drivers are confident that this is Nintendogs eating the moon. While he sounded his horn while still cried, as if the moon should eat Tengu off. Little Driver's move is not an individual. As we passed villages, also see the same situation. While Later we explain this to the small drivers, natural phenomena, but do not know whether he can understand and accept.
July 17: The whole Qamdo are busy access road shall be commemorating the liberation of the local people filled the dust seems to have become accustomed to the. We are in such an environment in a tour of Qiangbalin Monastery. At noon return to residence, the intention to continue the road, the driver tells us the bad news: the road ahead collapsed! We really give trapped!
We are now faced with a dilemma: first, in front of Dengqen - Bazing section collapsed, followed by the Sichuan-Tibet Litang - Batang paragraph also collapsed. There are Yigong early section collapsed before our departure, and to listen to the military command said there was no road for half a year's time is a bad repair. In this way, we only backtrack land is feasible.
But we do not retreat. Everyone of us is down a pretty big commitment and sacrifice to make such important decisions. Tibet is our dream for many years, finally came to, we can not go back this way.
Heaven always leaves people a way out. Qamdo nearby military airport and a civilian aircraft landed. The news seems to give each of us a shot booster. We are getting busy up.
July 18 -7 20: The only military approach has become our life-saving straw. Qamdo town seems that many people are driven out. We are a group of tickets is one busy person. The best plan to be flown directly from the Qamdo Lhasa, but unfortunately only one flight per week. We had to take Quxianjiuguo line, the first flight in Chengdu, and then fly from Chengdu, Lhasa.
In Qamdo three days, every morning after things ticket would appeal to tourists, tired of the afternoon in Chamdo hotel room playing the "tractor", the evening went to the night market at midnight to eat Yakitori, and other delicious Sichuan hot pot.
July 21: set foot on the aircraft, our hearts finally settled down. Tibet on the way we fly, and then two hours later, we fly into this piece of sacred land of Tibet and enjoy the stretching peaks of the heroic.
As early as we entered Tibet ago, a friend introduced us to live on the auspicious day, or eight Lang school hostels. As the auspicious full member of the hotel, and we live in a lucky hit an eight-Long learning hostels. The eight co-Long study the most we hope to places that can stay free of charge for those clothes. This brings us back to Lhasa after the two were admitted to the eight-Lang study, and to a lot of dirty clothes to the attendants, while we ourselves are to enjoy the day and night in Lhasa.
Small hotel in Lhasa have some bulletin boards, which is set up specifically for travelers. You can find the right line of the above, time and travel companions. If you are not desirable, and you paste a big deal, wait a day or two, travel companions can be found.
July 22: Male compatriots decided to advance Ali, while we continue to advance the line as originally planned, resulting in groups in the decision to advance Sanhuo in Lhasa.
July 23: We pack up the luggage, set off to the Everest base camp. Played up and down early in the morning rain, seems to be a bad sign. The results we missed the beautiful calm Yamdrok Lake. Displayed in front of us Yamdrok Lake in the rain in quiet and beauty, just the occasional one or two birds flying over it only adds a little angry.
July 24: Today the road is muddy. Lazi saw a car go through the three most difficult sections. The first two we have successfully passed. And met the team trapped in the two big wind Poles. Their car stuck to the mud, and hope that our car can carry them to a trip. We Erhuamoshui agreed. But they did not take long on the train, our car also fell into the muddy fields. Jack, stone, and even the nurse of the King we have to make on the. Car finally delivers the goods out of the mud. Drivers, thus beginning to believe that two foreigners had brought him bad luck.
Along the way the Polish boys to tell us about their experiences, and that girls as English is not fluent in Russian and the boy only occasionally exchanges. In this process, we discovered that they like us, they like to eat in Xinjiang Taipan Ji. Along the way we are all very pleasant conversations with. The Polish boy was also surprised that we speak English so well. This probably stems from his ignorance of the Chinese bar.
Night we came to the foot of Mount Everest a small town called Xegar. Drivers, poor road conditions and into the mountains in order to examine the reasons, saying that the two foreigners are unwilling to bring Mount Everest, then we also had to give up the idea of the.
July 25: We are finally at 2:00, when standing at more than climbing Everest base camp of Mount Everest and the waiting time is not far in front of us. As the clouds are more Everest is temporarily unable to see the whole picture, we have decided to wait. Although there is a strong overhead sun shining, but living in more than 5000 meters wearing a down jacket bursts of us still feel the chill. We waited in the cold wind of more than three hours, after 4 games hail later, Everest finally show his face in the Shy. We are blessed! Should know that many travelers is to wait a day or two failed to see. 6 pm until the midnight, we finally can see Mount Everest, and at that moment, I did not even know why shed a tear, it just made me feel as if your loved ones to close.
July 26: In the way to Old Tingri, we can finally do not regret to see panoramic views of Mount Everest. It is so pure no time, far standing there, white clouds lingering in the mountainside at, so scenery, so that I could not close your eyes, afraid of missing it again the next minute.
Out of the old Tingri county, we found that the roadside two familiar faces - two Polish foreigner. They also intercepted by the roadside to the camphor to ride on. Although our car had been moving forward more than 100 meters, our drivers or the car fell back. When they found us, we direct exclaimed "Chineseangel". Because they have been waiting there four hours, and has not yet willing to set a car on them. Compared with yesterday, they did a lot of red sun, wearing sun glasses places have left a visible mark.
After Nyalam car after the green side of the road more up the mountain began to decline. We unconsciously into the mountains, moisture and heavy mist are up. We went to the camphor, a small town bordering Nepal.
Camphor is a hillside town, buildings colorful with orange-red-based, in order to humid weather here has brought a lot of anger. Living in camphor wood, you will feel seems to come abroad, where the Tibetans, the Nepalese are found everywhere, but rather is the Han people rather rare, so that you can not distinguish where they are.
It really is quite delicate! Some people may be in your place to let you unexpected encounter. I actually met in the camphor Hotel Shanghai headquarters of the Swiss human resources colleagues and his wife. They are the foreign experts with the Shanghai tours to Tibet. If I was not wearing a "DANONE" a windbreaker, I am afraid he may not recognize me, because I had her hair wrapped in turbans of all.
July 27 -7 28: backtrack Lhasa. From camphor wood, we found that along the green to the hills when the time has been put on a white hat. Plateau changes in the weather really makes you anticipated.
July 29: Lhasa rest in preparation for Nyingchi loop tour. Visit the Potala Palace, Norbu Lingka, Barkhor Street.
The Potala Palace in the tour, I always thought there are many monks in the palace himself to studying the scriptures Unfortunately, the staff talked with the palace before they know the Potala Palace has been just a place where tourists only However, there remains a sacred Tibetan people.
For the girls, Barkhor Street is still our most happy to wandering, strolling place. Where the whole street is a wide variety of small ornaments, bone system, and silver, and many others. If you search for thin, maybe there will be surprise discoveries.
Outside the Potala Palace Jokhang Temple Barkhor Street is a turning away from another place, where you can see around the Jokhang Temple knock long head, and turning, the pious and peaceful. More than go shopping, Barkhor Street is also a gathering place for Tibetans. This is what I saw most Tibetans in Tibet, a place to do business.
(Do not know why, in the area of Tibet, Tibetans in business is rare. Every one place, you first see the restaurant is a Szechuan Restaurant, grocery store owner is Sichuanese Sichuanese seems pretty good business mind. Tibetan people seem to prefer their own lives now and does not want to change anything, not because of economic prosperity and not force themselves to be sacrificed.)
July 30: Today is the start to the Jiangnan of Tibet Linzhi big day. Whether it is elegant strokes out wind and rain do? Sheung Before long, we encountered rain. Cai Ting rained constantly to nearly noon.
Departure from Lhasa, and our car has always been a beautiful asphalt roads in the Mercedes-Benz. This is the best road into Tibet after the section of the road. The road landscape and the way we had previously taken over the past not quite the same, and really deserves to be called the Jiangnan of Tibet, the green a lot more than the previous road on both sides of the growth of the bush. Our car drove along the Niyang, the rain finally stopped, the sun came out. We have found between two mountains and a rainbow, which we have seen in Tibet has been the most beautiful. Everest has seen before in the foot before, but this color is not the present one is more brilliant.
July 31: We Basongco a small room off the lake the night. Early in the morning we went to the Wonderland-like tour of lake-ri. That was an isolated world, and from the traffic is only one row of pull-rope raft. In addition to several of us on the island today, there are two things came to the island from Shigatse monastery monks pilgrimage. To see their devotion to religion, so you have to sincerely admire them.
Heard in front of traffic is not a good reason, we did not stay in the town of 81, but arrived at the Millington night live in Millington hotels.
August 1: Early in the morning, we follow the agreed upon time to prepare to continue the road, but right-left, etc. were also not seen the emergence of the driver. Inquire about a driver Jiaozhong only know what we had and can not be driving. This time we are worried, because both of us to be back in Guangzhou, but this time is just planned. Only when we informed the driver where the travel agent, after leaving the driver rest and recuperation, we ourselves would like to remedy the damage.
To move forward, traffic is not good, but not rent a car, time can not be guaranteed; it seems that we had to backtrack returned. Thus we were four girls crammed full of butter-flavored Barry returned in Bayi Town. The car seat before leaving the Millington has been filled, but the driver in order to promote the "mutual help" the spirit of the car reaches 81 years ago, the town was packed like sardine cans. In the 81 towns to celebrate "81" Army Day, meaningful bar.
August 2: Fortunately we are in the final few minutes to buy a ticket back to Lhasa, but luck does not always come to us. The road from Lhasa to 81 are the asphalt road, we at least believe that they can successfully go back. Who knows after a gongbo'gyamda did not take long, in front of another cave-ins. Zhe Xiake good, our wishful thinking once again disappointed.
The landslides, and our car to wait 10 hours and thought no problem through the cave section. Could be the problem happens again in our car - the water tank leaking. The results we have arrested people at an altitude of over 4000 meters of the mountain, in the crowded and narrow wagon through the long night, feeling really never forget.
August 3: the car was finally repaired. When the car speeding, my heart flew back to Lhasa. In our view, Lhasa is like our home, a home can be replaced dirty clothes, the comfort of a hot bath. It feels so good!
As we come at this time did not run into the Sholton Festival, so we chose to auspicious days of the mad cow restaurant, enjoy the traditional Tibetan buffet and watch Tibetan Opera. But here, Lhasa a popular place to eat had to order it in advance.
August 4: In the travel agency for reminding me, we are early in the morning came to the outskirts of the Sera Monastery in Lhasa station next to a large buried secretly watched a mysterious burial rituals.
August 5: Two girls boarded the plane back to Guangzhou in advance. And I and another girl with an appointment in advance of a couple and one in Hong Kong to Beijing embarked on a trip to Namco. If Yamdrok Lake trip pity, that Namco is making all the compensation. Entrusted God's blessing, we see two different posture, Namco.
Nam Co in the sun is like a blue gem embedded in the green grass. The lake sparkling in the sun suffused with golden light, in the Tashi on the island that we quietly waits for the arrival of sunset. The spectacular sunset we did not see, but we have seen not less than a sunset - the sun and the clouds in the mountains between the injection light is also shiny red shiny red lake clouds, as if all this is to melt as a whole.
To see not a sunset, there is such a harvest is not bad. Would hope that tomorrow you can see the sunrise bar.
August 6: waking up when I heard the rain, it looks likely to watch the sunrise is gone. However, a tent, I give them to the overawed in front of scenery: the sky gloomy, as if the lake should hold him down like yesterday, is still distant mountain peaks Nyainqentanglha have all gone out of sight, light green left alone while waiting for the lake. Outdoor cold, wind is also great, I can not bear to leave it for such a view, Dai Li in the lake, a long time reluctant to leave.
Car left the lake, but the more open the more wrong, how the earth formed the white light, look at the distant hill, the green of the hilltop yesterday has been replaced Wonderful Time I Spent prime wrap. Under the original, early this morning a snow scene suddenly have changed. Come to the hills when a thick snow cover, so that our cars have to be careful to move forward. Looking back on high ground Namco, she has become so unpredictable and mysterious.
Because we have decided out of Tibet by the Qinghai-Tibet Highway, there is no truck back to Lhasa, but the station's stay there a while Heroman.
August 7: Take the Qinghai-Tibet Highway is another objective is to see if we can come across Naqu Horse Race Festival. The results we have inquired into the Naqu Horse Race Festival will begin on the 10th, so we decided to Damxung Duodai a day trip to the Yangbajain.
Experience tells us that our predecessors, to the Yangbajain can Chengpian car, but because the period of trying to fix the road, not easy to cut-off vehicles. May God's mercy, we are staying at home and it has found a bandwagon. While on Heroman the station's home to a team investigation, Lanzhou Institute of Qinghai-Tibet railway survey team, they just have a car people will undergo Yangbajing, and can bring us.
Get off, we can see that spring is far from the rising water vapor. Goal seems close, but Wang Shan ran dead horse, we have spent more than an hour to get there before spring. We are disappointed that the spa is not as described in the book, leaving only a pool and a geothermal power plant. To listen to a power plant worker wells, said: here 10 years ago, the situation of really spectacular, but due to the development of geothermal, we have not see the fountains and geyser of geothermal energy.
Return, we sit down at the most senior Tibetan road car - the wind fields 4500, it was a group of Cantonese, they are also preparing to go to horse racing Nagqu section.
August 8: We have left to Nagqu the. A few days ago a girl in Shenzhen due to the introduction, we decided to cut big Dongfeng road, abandoned bus. This is the first time we really stopped ride. At 9 am, and we stood in the depot hailed the door, but the car Or else we stop, or to ask your destination, and then silently drove away. In this way, until 13 o'clock number that we successfully stopped the car and said good price. It seems difficult to ride up and cut. Great feeling of sitting in the car with the jeep ride completely different. In the big wind, we have lofty, much of the scenery in front of the windshield so that glance. It feels special stick!
Do not have some flavor of the Qinghai-Tibet Highway. Straight asphalt roads pass through the green grassland to the sky, while the blue sky and the blossoming clouds, as if to come to earth with the flocks of sheep and cattle to make one with like.
August 9: Naqu Horse Racing Festival very hot, especially the residential areas. Is that not right last night, still living in Nagqu hotels, today we have to find a place moved. Heaven helps pays off, we have found a place to live close to the Jockey Club had.
That night, Nagqu does not seem to calm down, everyone is busy section of tomorrow's race up.
August 10: Naqu Horse Racing Festival has finally opened its doors. In the way to the venue, full of Sheng makeup people, Tuoerdainv flocked to the opening ceremony. Outside, a tent surrounded by layers of good laps, there is a place to eat, there are games where there are like family to bring festive tent. Tibetan women, and that a decoration that makes you wonder, turquoise, red agate, silver, pigtail hung a heavy Needless to say, I heard that the value of even more shocking. A Tibetan driver told us that the less a complete set of clothing was worth one million.
Taste of Tibetan costumes and exquisite beauty of riding, we stopped another a big wind hit the road. 10 pm and more like our car through the famous Tanggula pass. After also pass, I saw her first snow. Start a car outside it began to rain, I do not take too much notice. Climb in the car, outside of the lamp's reflective rain worsened, Gezhaojuchuang rush to my head over, so I have a feeling of exposure time tunnel. At that time I noticed white street has already begun, and outside the snow! It was snow, why it was so strong reflection.
August 11: early morning are few cars on the Qinghai-Tibet Highway. Although access to Tibet, Qinghai-Tibet Highway traffic arteries, but we also can see the occasional vehicle passes through. After a five beams, rolling the Kunlun Mountains on the show before our eyes. Bi Shumin had the "Kunlun blue" feeling too Kunlun. But now the front of the towering Kunlun, I do not know how to use words about your heroic movement of people, I can only用心去感受you.
14:00, we arrived at Golmud, Qinghai, but also announced that we achieved in 2000 of about Tibet.
(Off-topic: a Tibetan, I and the companions toured the ancient capital of Xian, and the road to Huashan to know two boys in Guangzhou, came together in the middle of the night, with nearly 6 hours to climb Huashan Huashan saw a bright sunrise. Huashan painful trip I returned to Xi'an, I can only lie in bed motionless. Such experiences, I swear from the future do not climb any mountains, in addition to Huangshan)
More than a month's trip to Tibet, it is fortunate that we have a safe and back. The whole journey, we have the laughter, there were tears; we help others, they also help us; have good luck, but also the unfortunate time. But no matter how, the way the scenery along the way make me an unforgettable experience. I take this opportunity to travel companions with the same aftertaste joys, and friends to share their happiness.
Tourism's nice to feel!
