Tibet in the roof of the world, seen by many as a mysterious place. Who is to enter Tibet, travel, anyone can feel that they are personally unveiled this layer of mystery to witness the veil after the charming style.
Tibet is located in China's southwest border, an area of more than 120 million square kilometers, equivalent to Germany, Spain and France combined. Population of 2.32 million, to the Tibetan population-based. The average elevation in Tibet for more than 4,000 meters, is the world's largest and highest plateau above sea level, with the Arctic, Antarctic, and known as the "Earth's tri-polar." Tibet's unique geographical environment created a unique scenery of snow-covered, while the age-old traditional culture and Tibetan Buddhism has developed its own unique cultural system, all this great mystery of Tibet and the temptation to form a variety of tourism in Tibet landscape.
Tibet, for each one in sports and tourism are the dreams of those who aspire to the Holy Land. I am no exception. Previously only available to mysterious Tibet, the simplicity of folk customs, beautiful scenery hidden in the heart, have always had their own did not expect really stand this piece of magic land.
Chinese New Year, I have more time online, more sites have begun to appear in Tibet Favorites years, so I will not beat the original Zheke lonely heart with the melting snow on the plateau gradually began to smolder, began to see more travels in Tibet and the Raiders, then began to lobby their families, and their families struggle to ......
Early April on the Internet and the Zibo, Shandong Hai Ge to contact with Tibet, as well as Zhejiang cielo. If inadvertently Tibet's dream to become a reality, too fast even themselves somewhat to adapt to.
Know that I am determined to go to Tibet after the parents start to try every means to stop me. In their eyes, Tibet is still a wild and dangerous place. Because it vitally Let me from the outset to carry a burden in terms of ideology, I know they do not understand why I go to Tibet (in fact, I can not tell you why to go), but I have decided something must be done on the to.
Started preparatory work: buy a sleeping bag, food, medicine, film and so on. Learned from the many places to go to Tibet to bring a lot of things. Zibo Hai Ge has also sent an E-Mail to me, which had previously been to Tibet's friends list of items listed. Looked at a lot of goods and drugs inside his head had lost consciousness.
I have not seen so many drug Changzhemetai, Tibet so frightening? No, have to check information on the Internet, with so many things I do and can play tired all worn out --
A week later, most of the things already Mai Qi (later proved that I could not fully convinced that the experience of others, there are many things in Tibet, I have little or no use at all). So set a date now set out.
Internet, Shou Xin, the QQ, with the Haige news, said to be April 20 departure to Lhasa on the 25th to join.
Immediately packed his luggage, handed down last thing - do Everest, camphor border card.
The morning of April 21, had been complaining that pack waiting for a good backpack, but I can not leave, because have not received mail-order of the sleeping bag. The afternoon, the unit called to say with my mail. Ran 100 meters speed to get back, thank God - I finally saw the long-awaited sleeping bag! The first reaction is to buy tickets, in order to rush to buy a trip to the northwest of the first car was to go to Xi'an.
Middle of the night 12 points, sitting in Nanyang train to Xi'an, and do not imagine there should be excitement. Worry that their own cold (from a week ago on a cold, usually like to eat medicine for two days, this seems deliberate and I go against, take medicine, injections were no better. The want to transfusion, in order to catch up the time nor the in time. Whether or, at worst dead in Tibet better.), then forget for a moment what kind of car to catch Haige the trip, on the stuffy asleep.
Arrived at noon on April 22, Xi'an station, first went to inquire about a travel agency can not buy a ticket to Lhasa Xian (I have counted not keep up with Haige trip, so I want to fly than he was early to two days). Surprisingly, from Xi'an to Lhasa twice weekly ticket has been set to the next week (no bar, there are so many people in Tibet do?). Have to buy a ticket to Lanzhou in the afternoon.
Looking for a home near the train station restaurant to eat mutton Paomo, taste is not authentic, a little regret.
At 7:00 on April 23 arrived in Lanzhou to Golmud immediately to find the car, the defendant's only come at night. No way to flew to the bus stop, onto the one sent to Xining, the long-distance car full of car everyone thought startled to be robbed.
Ten minutes after the car they proceed from here, I started to enjoy the scenery of the west. To Xining in the six hours away, I see that most of the mountains there is no vegetation, barren mountains a rain-washed out of the ravine Road, a desolate place. In the hillside close to the road ahead, and still be able to see signs of an outbreak of mountain torrents, chunks of rock smashed into the road after that before they removed, quietly lying on the street showing the forces of nature.
To leave the city more than one hours later, saw a more than a poor village. Some I think I can now only see that the soil in the movie house in my field of vision actually occurs, the xing XU Zhang Yimou's next film will be here, Pai Waijing it.
Car speeding, car window suddenly drifting away Jiduo peach - I winked, yes, peach, and gradually also more and more until the large tracts of Taolin appears before your eyes. Peach Blossom in Henan to know as early as two weeks ago to drop the. It is to be a poem: April Fangfei earth to do, before Temple peach bloom.
1:00 to Da Xining, 7pm bought the ticket sent to Golmud, after holding a travel agent gave me the open letter of introduction to the two agencies asked a number of years the situation in Tibet. To hear a good one bad two news: good news is there on the 24th at the Golmud Noboridama Everest Climbing Festival (It is a pity I do not have time), the bad news is that all of them told me that if cold, then they should not Tibet (really terrible the past few days I have three or four kinds of cold medicine in the eating, but I could not bear fruit ah). Everywhere in the streets looking for pharmacy, one breath they bought four kinds of cold medicines, sale of drugs by young man asked me if I was to go to Tibet, and it seems that he is still here, the business of cold medicine is bad.
Have no time to Qinghai Lake, or Tar, and just casually walk around near the train station. Xining people from the street wear and other cities in terms of clearly distinct, due to the special geographical environment and religious beliefs, Han clothing, Tibetan clothing, Islamic clothing, including many Tibetan lamas to teach the unique street wear in Xining together into a national dress the big stage. And then try Xining snacks, pasta Islamic majority, may have been finished in the relationship between the flat faint taste of no ethnic flavor. Only one type of yogurt, let me straight Yankou Shui, although the acid may have collapsed teeth can really taste that good (and later to Tibet, Lhasa tasted yogurt I came to understand what always other able men, acid outside acid).
The train for the first time to spend the evening sleeping bags.
April 24 of the most boring day.
Train in the Gobi on the road, looking ahead, looking up from the embankment side of the end of desolation everywhere. Some can not be called a hill adorned Qiuling slightly open plains.
I sat looking out the window while already had two hours. From the very beginning of the excitement (after all, have not seen such a Gobi) slowly began to become dull until the last of the irritable slightly. This is two hours were able to see creatures in addition to those unknown people only very short plants, as well as the acid in his eyes I see only found in a small animals such as mice. Boring increase irritability --
Close to 12 o'clock arrived in Golmud. Backpack out of the station, only to feel the sun burning, and from the train station to the bus station just a few minutes made me feel like summer to the (not at all no one else to say on the plateau will be more cold weather, the feeling). At the bus stop in front of women have asked me whether or not to ride Lanzhe to Lhasa, because I already heard that some of Islam in the half-way drivers cheating if you do not put you threw him in a very desolate place, hastened to the rebuff her.
On this day is not only boring, and very unfortunate. In the state-run bus station ticket window, the former clearly see my backpack in front of two young donkey in the ticket, and quickly followed after they bought one on the catch, is not the same bus with them to. Alas, had to so.
The other from 12:00 to wait until 4 pm, watch as the backpack and donkeys who sit in front of the bus were all on the car until I can not find even a donkey, in addition to migrant workers is a business. Everyone is happy to sit sleeper shoes off, feel sorry for my meter eighty seven of the heads lying in the berth on the bar no less than lying, sitting bar does not sit straight, feet smell a car smell - My friends, you can Imagine how miserable I was bar!
4:00 the car was finally starting, starting with the mood. I still clearly remember when the vehicle is driving out of Golmud in Qinghai-Tibet line, when that feeling go - I began to really embark on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau! Excitement - and then thrilled - well, how can feel a little bit of asthma, the total will not be there until the 3000 meters of altitude sickness in it, the back of the mouth of the Tanggula how to do ah!
Inhibited the surging an upsurge of yourself sitting in your own bed with his sleeper and on (sorry, not her) started chatting. Hey, is actually fellow. He told me that he was doing business in 81 every year in the Qinghai-Tibet Railway ran I do not know how many times. Mangwen He walked Qinghai-Tibet Railway have side effects? "It has been used to it, very few have, but I had a time when there was still a Tanggula, some headache." He then looked about me, Hei hei smile "It is estimated you will have the reaction, because you were too bulky, and oxygen consumption large volume. "Alas, big heads do is my fault! It seems this time I was the odds on this ...... I had is to go to Mount Everest on the Tibet had secretly determined, so long as to go to Everest, that is, death is also the value of ah. But I have not seen this moment Everest ah, even in Lhasa do not know what does, and now in the cold ......
Messy mind is Luanxiang car turned a pass when the beautiful scenery put me fascinated. It was about 19:30 in the Mainland is already dark, and in this plateau is the evening before. In the faintly still see the snow mountains among a quietly flowing stream, river covered large tracts of ice, according to face the sunset, the dark river water, the warm afterglow of the sunset and the distant hills and snow US breathtaking. Piece of three-dimensional painting that I saw in the whole trip the first beauty, it has moved I have been with me into the vast darkness.
April 25 morning, 2:00 o'clock, I looked behind the driver's seat, wrapped in sleeping bags outside the gray night, making an effort to find any one of the things that can stimulate my eye. Yet, except for headlights shining on a piece of road I could see nothing. Yesterday, starting from the darkness had been doing nothing, Dai Zhao bed with a fellow talk late into the night (during which he ate a bag of Liang Pi, a melon seeds, and a large piece of beef, but also his own to the elimination of five pounds of bananas) on the so while eating side of the chat, inverted, like the two little girls, until he can be marked with a minute before 20 yawn let him, and watched him like a load of relief are smiling in their sleep, their sleep but also how .
Anyway, no fewer than lying in the berth also sit on the straight, wrapped in sleeping bags on the driver's seat just after the so that at least be able to sit comfortable. I do not know why so much time for the road should be very tired fishes, how can all go to sleep, I wonder if this is a good thing or a bad thing. In any case, now you can not worry about someone else said, sleeping on the plateau could sleep a thing of the past (mind lucky: at least will not die in the road, the Qinghai-Tibet). While thinking about while drowsily, and also not say whether or asleep, until the car broke down on the road.
Looked at the time, confused from the beginning to now also more than two hours (that is, two hours so I have always been to Lhasa, did not expect was to Lhasa, I still can not sleep, that is something). Continue to see two drivers holding a tool repair, relying on previously dry guide to help get off the first reactions. Just like a rabbit out of the door, like jump up - cold! ! ! As far as I it was estimated that the temperature could be minus ten degrees.
Such as dawn finally came, the car was repaired, continued on our way and continue to look at the scenery, to continue moving forward ......
Reach Tanggula mouth, braving the biting cold wind out of his vehicle, carrying his camera burst fire, but also doing the victory sign crooked hat took pictures of Zhang (washed out look is the Hen Langbei look). No longer can not stand cold wind and return to the warm engine.
The body does not feel anything abnormal, with a total do not feel right, everyone says there is no way in the Tanggula I also have the plateau response. Exhausted body finally found the head there a little bit, a little bit of pain, as if it wore a finger on either side of the temple, like Zhang Yu breath Zhexia Ke counted at ease (do not know no one would say that I am sick ).
This is the day in the end have lost count of how many beautiful collection in my mind, the most clear-cut scene is approaching Nagqu of a meadow on the plateau. I remember was 15:00 or so, I sat in the car's engine terms of scenery. Car has just been turned on a mountain top, the sky thick clouds low, Hen Buneng gave everything to squeeze flat grassland, on the road on the right is a large expanse of meadow, dotted with a number of Shuibo attracted black Yak and white sheep, a river meandering stretch far away ...... in the distance, a group of snow-capped mountains blocking the line of sight, in which a snow-capped peak above the clouds opened a skylight, golden light sprinkle to cast a layer of snow-capped mountains to its golden glory! Later, I saw an eagle, an eagle! In the prairie sky on the wings soaring ......
A beautiful landscape painting, no master can not be drawn to its charm, which only belongs to this beautiful plateau. You have only themselves to this magical land in order to enjoy this beautiful painting.
I was deeply shocked to see the painting at the earliest, when my first reaction was to jump up, pick up the camera. But I did not go, I was sitting on the engine has been looking at the painting disappeared from my sight, I would prefer it to stay in my heart, rather than recorded in the accumulation of chemicals out of the paper. At that moment, I was moved to shed 10 years, there is no flow of tears (written sentence I was trying to express real feelings, that we should not laugh at me)!
4 points for a long time the event of snow, only 20 minutes, the vehicle is a white world, the visibility of only tens of meters, drivers had to slow careful driving.
21:00 traffic congestion in the YBJ.
2:00 minutes, after 5 days, in which various types of vehicles more than 90 hours of the bumps, and finally to Lhasa city.
