I like the chance to travel, but also like the occasional trip. Because they have bought a "" Tibet in leather-covered books "" and L happen to go to a meeting in Lijiang, we did not do much preparation, on the road. Line is from Zhongdian to the towns and from towns and to the Inagi, and then to Kangding and then return to Chengdu.
From Lijiang to Zhongdian 1, we have asked how to towns and local tour guides, he said that the road landslides, more than 300 kilometers to go 12 hours without a driver is willing to go. Said that 1000 individuals to Lijiang, in which two or three hundred people to Zhongdian, only two or three individuals to the towns and. We hear all stupid. However, asked a question, or to the bus station, I never expected that car, 51, 6 hours on its way. And this road is safe. Was really excited to death. The next day on the bus, a car Kham guy, are not seated according to numbers, good seats are so that they can account for, and we squeezed in the back, and a pair of Australians, a pair of German elderly couple together. This car only six from the outside world to our people. A beginning to the next Weng, water is half the journey, the road bad, very serious, we always have to walk for some, or even go to help, so regardless of Tibetans, Han Chinese and foreigners have become a hit with the car Tibetan send us girls to adopt wildflowers. Kham guy is very cute, and very simple. Know do not know all live together like brothers. As the song said the way the book continuously. Later, do not need to get off the road, but there is every spring for the car of the Department is necessary to add water, spring water is the drink of the. Way stop-go, camellia were foolish, very happy, although a little longer time is not tired. Besides these four foreigners seem to find our book useful, plus we'll point in English. Began to move closer to us, they are for the first time to China, staffing a <<SOUTHWEST CHINA>>. I have found that Chinese people are willing to help others on the road, so then we have six people formed a small group (really self-inflicted). In approaching towns and on the road, one a white fortress-like houses or individual, or the formation of small villages, or implicitly or current, vague shapes of distant mountains will hardly ever off the sun, dotted in the col, the fresh Youyuan great.
To the towns and to have already bought tickets Daocheng finished. Because the road the next day, 10-point blasting, or four days after the walk, or chartered to go through before the 10 o'clock. The result is to discuss six pack two cars, the cost split between the endpoint of Litang (driver does not just go to Inagi, the remaining time will never come back) I, and L is not cost-effective, because there is a driver is willing to midnight 4:00 took us to the Inagi, he can come back. Only 500 yuan. Australian poet says four of us can be a car, the two Germans to the rejection, and so cheaper. Laments human nature is really ugly, My People's behaved, the two elderly Heren start with. Two Germans were very cautious, do not believe that we are serious about helping them. They also let me and the L sub 2 cars do. Really bother anyone. Australians get along with, and believe us, but sometimes listening to German. The way of the infighting began. Road is difficult to take exception, King is the unusual and beautiful, the driver of the technology is unusually high. I and L, is the abnormal heart good, hee hee. . . Perhaps it is precisely because of this, and the latter we have very good luck indeed.
Into the section of road is very bumpy Daocheng, but also the most beautiful, indeed, it is difficult to use language to describe. Tibetans road waved to us, very friendly. The monastery is surrounded all of which are rolling hills, flocks of yaks and horses in the slightly distant hillside, the sky is blue blue, and meandering rivers are all in the sun shining colorful colors. The trees are large groups of dark-green, scattered on the slopes in the naturals, or far or near, 3322, but not too much, Dai black bunker-like Tibetan residential areas, floating down the meantime, the hospital or in the roof or a circle or a row of wild flowers, but it is a very distinctive pink and white, a large a large swaying in the wind, he wanders the dark black low wall, he wanders the dark sky primacaine, which can be seen in a dream I'm afraid. There are golden rice, the white carved Tibetan Mani stones filled with hills, wind horse flag, Baita, lamas in red. All this wind but a dream, ethereal yet very inside information. The book describes two temples, I just went to rush Temple, which is located in the mountains alone, very taste. The open space stood Miaomen Qian, those lamas simple and friendly, Wai come and talk with us, but also our cameras to our camera, very cute. The monastery is surrounded by incessant mountains, let your heart melt stretch along the plateau in the wind and sun. Another temple is said to be more flavor, there are wild animals to eat something every day, man and nature live in harmony. 4 foreign friends do not want to go. We can only go downhill after the hot springs, they go to a big pond to swim, but I am comfortable to take a bath, and then sat on the lawn full of flowers, bathed in sunlight, listening to gurgle of flowing water from the side through and surrounded by mountain ranges, is the blue sky white clouds overhead, write diary. They come out to see me so nice, envy, regret wasting time in the pool of.
The four foreigners did not intend to go to Aden, said that roads are bad, even the L had not the heart of the. I only have to do strike. But the heart is a terrible hate, especially the two Germans, cheap accounts, but also a pair of no confidence in the appearance of modesty, hateful. The next day was about the road, car broke, I sat in a restaurant alone, the boss and I chat, he had just Aden off the road has been maintained only opens today. He said that would be very sorry not to Aden, and I told L that I want to go in any case, L agreed to prepare and went our separate ways. Did not think they are willing to go, but only agreed to one day live in Aden. Time is a bit tight, the boss said, to see three snow-capped mountains is no problem. Encountered on their way to the Aden police, only to find that our car or the year before the inspection in July, a driver was not carrying a driver's license. Finally released, and there are foreign friends Well, where people are hard-hearted indeed. I was afraid of, but never dare to tell a German friend, in fact, they are very fine, Granny exaggeration to say that this is a huge RISK (This is a terrible tone from her only understood the English), once ready to go back, then take a walk, and began to cry. Upsets Australians are also upset. We have with great patience and compassion, Who we are masters, they are guests in? But they understand that they do not like it, and believe that we have ulterior motive is really bother anyone. Difficulties in traveling and scenery along the way are difficult to make actionable. And compared to see the scenery and this risk is too worthwhile. Have come to realize has been saying the phrase "Do not seek turned into a photo, but only to have seen." I saw a picture is the most beautiful blue sky white clouds, under a layer of golden paddy fields, stands with a Tibetan women, Chu Tibetan wearing dark red dress, hand sickle, quietly, peering into our car opened before, in large tracts of paddy fields in which she is just so little, but the kind of quiet, the kind of harmony between man and nature, in the grabbing of a car passing, as if eternity between heaven and earth, but we are just a passing glance. In addition to scenery, there are so many unforgettable people, those roads in the mountains of the Tibetan people, whenever we smile, wave, and the roads of the Tibetan children in our car dealers Young Pioneers ceremony, sitting on the threshold or the fence wrinkled Tibetan the elderly, carrying a line of grass Xu Tibetan women. Landscape assigns people with spirit, which is the soul who confers landscape.
Opened about five hours to the entrance of Aden, more than three in the afternoon bell. I am very excited and ready to ride with everyone before the trip, to stay as far as 14 kilometers. In fact, a snow-capped mountains along the way has been presented in front of us had. I think this is no problem under the bar, such a beautiful place, I also counted duties, and make a few brought. You do not know that in Germany the old man to say, really put me mad, "my friend came in and told me do not ride, nor to use 14 km on foot to three kilometers long enough." That's two in Australia people listened, they have agreed to the old man, in three kilometers accommodation. I-li yards down my face, facing L shouting against him and that several re-exchange, because L is likely to be accommodating them, and they see me angry, but also embarrassed to say anything, only to be ready by tomorrow, 12 o'clock here collection. We are holding horses went to the deep, in fact, quite good way to go, basically do not have horse riding. Man Shan's gorgeous wild flowers in front of three snow-capped mountains are a Kamiyama (Russian early mountain), it is majestic, as if there is ice age style, it is like a barrier before the snow stopped at three of our snow-capped mountains on the right is the Goddess of Mercy (cents is days), the left is King Snow (Xialuoduoji), Kamiyama is a large expanse of grassland under the yak in groups, a clear spring torrents winding together into a lake where the green is clear bottomed out. Etc. After a Kamiyama, two snow-capped mountains on the stand in front of us completely, but also what to say, but snapping a photo. Qian Ma said the third of the Tibetan snow-capped mountains (Yang Maiyong) is the most beautiful, and approaching a time when Los velvet pastures can be seen. A bit dark days when we saw that he was really the most beautiful, very top-notch toughness of the peak, was snow-covered is very complete. He is very tall towards the sky, the snow-covered central incomplete, but it gives a blurred beauty. We go very close, almost to his side of the mountainside. Spend the night in tents at night, no electricity, cold, drinking butter tea, roasted on fire. No other visitors to the mountains, Qian Ma of Tibetans, and his son, Zan Qu point beads and our chat, he said that most of the time in the mountains is very thick cloud to cover peaks, we can see three-wide, luck is a good of. He also said that colored the sea being surrounded by three snow-capped mountains, beautiful, if we are to go down the mountain at 12 o'clock is too late to go, it can not be riding all the way to be on foot. I have finally come to think of a trip, who has already seen three peaks, in this terrible tents suffer night, and then hurried down the mountain, so worth it. So I sit in tents, wooden orange mouth began to cry, Zan Qu comfort me up if earlier, he took horse and we are up, this may a little faster, about 1:00 into the foot of the mountain. L regardless of whether they four had also decided to write a note to bring down tomorrow, herdsmen near to them, anyway, only our six visitors throughout the Gulf of Aden. I do not altitude sickness, the book is written in them altogether unimportant, it is important is your faith. A few sleepless night. 7 am I out of the tent, or the dark days, and a rise, I was almost spent, and in front of Monju Xuefeng, he became the top is golden sun wiping, which is obviously a Jinshan. While surrounded by all the dark, like God in the spirit appeared and called the L I have only kept out, he also stunned. Zan Qu tell us that this is rare, and our good luck. When we leave the scene of such a hurry to get somewhere when gradually disappear, overcast down. It's strange, I do not eat or drink to sleep, actually four or five thousand meters in altitude in action freely, the way is not riding at night, under a heavy rain, even the Tibetan people admire my climbing ability. Presumably this is also a reaction to the altitude - altitude excited reaction bar. To save time for us to climb fast. Is said to look up the multi-colored sea, some foreigners, their physical well (our foreign friends are still sleeping). Colored the sea to look at the sun until the United States, I have been worried that milk can be when we go to sea when the sun very well. And went some way leads to the colored sea, three snow-capped mountains surrounding the colored sea, the sun has a rich sea of color changes in the plateau lakes are flooding back tears on the earth, pure silent drawn down, in a dream , or somewhere else. There is no hint of the sound, I am the only one who has this huge impact on the silence of my heart, but I think that was not enough, I know I am also thinking of the real Tibet, go to the places closer to the sky, to feel a greater ecstasy The divine-like forces of nature.
Back when I went back Chonggu Si, because the temple is very years, a person must go to see. I let them go first horse and L, I would totally walk down the mountain was somewhat gas-gas these foreigners. Unfortunately, I can not because they are life-long bar. They wait until the time I have already two in the afternoon a half years. They are 3 kilometers from 11:30 down, and waited for 3 hours. German Granny I think she thought that a certain air of mad, face expressionless faces, and I say hello. I am happy and everyone say hello. Before I left, I put eye drops given point of beads, some inflammation of his eyes. L addition of money to Zan Qu 20. A return to the old man was found in Germany is looking at us, that moment, I think he's relieved, and know that we are really to help them. He was forced to and I shook hands, smiling, I think Granny will say behind me a lot not, but Bicibici. I decided to break up as soon as possible. The way back to Inagi, we have photos to SIMON (Australian) to see, but also trying depicting some, SIMON is a person who loves the mountains, but this time close at hand, but missed. SIMON put a hole in the old man hated. Over the next trip, he and the spoken language of JANE is THE SAME AS YOU. To buy bus ticket when the Germans buy Litang, he thought we would buy Litang, turn L, he was directly purchased Kangding, SIMON quickly said, "THE SAME AS YOU", back to the old man are busy, said: "The I take their money, must not with them. "well this time appears to be the last supper, and may be the last meal they ate over the road. Evening we were six and two Tibetan drivers Ding and Eisner eat hot pot, people drinking beer, singing their national songs, very harmonious pleasure. Granny Ingrid and I just did a good face to see each other. The end, I think Granny's kinda cute, and her singing very good, Man You personality, she sang a lullaby for me, because by then I fell asleep tired at the dinner table. The next day, 6:30 on the bus, two cars at the same time fat, while at noon to Litang, so we started eating the final meal together. Very pleasant, Granny has become very friendly to me. L also help them buy a ticket, contact accommodation. Then we continue to walk, they are Zhuyi Ye (in fact, they could buy xinduqiao Zhuyi Ye). To Kangding took 15 hours. There are different views on the road, as if completely divorced from real life. Continuous mountain plateau, large group large groups of the cloud, we are so close from time to time so I do not know where they are. Bank of vehicles in the painting, but we are closer to civilized world. On the way, we also see snow-capped mountains Gongga. From xinduqiao to Kangding, the book said, the scene of the evening especially the United States, we are passing the time is completely in the dark, the sky's the stars Querang mesmerized us, so clearly I was the first time to see the Big Dipper (Do not Unfortunately, I do not know of).
Kangding very good, and the book described a similar trend. Pao Mashan not as good as Purple, but sitting in the Peak, depends on how visitors are singing Kangding love song to climb the mountain top, still very fun. There are Muge Cuo (Wild sea) of the seven-color the sea is quite distinctive. From Mu Gecuo can see snow-capped mountains Gongga. We went to, when clouds obscured by snow-capped mountains. SIMON they are very disappointed to miss the Gulf of Aden, but also miss the snow-capped mountains Gongga. But wait a moment, even scattered clouds, the majestic snow-capped mountains Gongga posture emerged in the clouds. Is also a very attractive snow-capped mountains.
For fear that the elderly in Germany, so we posted at the bus station Chang message board so that they can find our notes. With gratitude when they find us, and we began to eat the last supper together. This has been eating in Chengdu, then we would break up with each other to stay Address phone, reluctantly. Germany for the elderly than they truthfully say that we are rich, but also helpful and very grateful for our help. We say that Chinese young people are, and we have been. I think that humanity is equal, in fact the spirit of the Chinese people really look at some ways superior, so we see the beauty that is also to be friends.
Tibet to leather-covered books is really a useful book. Not only with our useful and let the Tibetans happy wherever they went, both young and old women and children, dipped in saliva, were racing to look. To find they are familiar with the picture card and people to see a satisfied smile on their faces, you will be very happy. This last book gave SIMON, because he liked the crazy, though, like the Tibetans can not read a word.
Came back this thought in Traveler magazine have seen one like all the way to go mad, he even named for himself. About understood what he meant, can not help but burst out laughing. Indeed even also-ran also.
