Sunset on the Jiayuguan
(Sun and Moon Tan) traveled south city, Yuan She, Guangdong and Hainan, Shanghai people are interested, in fact, really to go take a look at the western sun. From Shanghai to Xinjiang, the train from Bengbu turning westward along the Longhai line, read the best of the Yellow River old course of the desolation of Lankao and enjoy the mountains of southern Shaanxi cramped, from Lanzhou to the west into the Hexi Corridor is a new online view of the so-lan some people can resist. This is a way to mention just some of the names are a teenager reading the book fascinating geographical heart Chi's. Wushaoling tall, silver Wuwei, Zhangye, "the world with big," Jiayuguan, yumenguan, hongliuyuan ... ... the number of things past and present, are these names related to the number of Border Poets of the Tang Dynasty and do pay for the Smoke in the desert. Speaking of the western Gobi desert a long time in the most strange sight, I think that the sunset on the Jiayuguan.
In the summer, the western sun is too late, was also transferred to the night. 8:00 every morning, the eastern part of everyday life have already begun, while in the west, imam of the morning prayers has just begun. Dawn slight woods, a leisurely way triumphantly singing ringing through the sound. Sometimes clear and sometimes obscure. In the evening, the sun to go after 10 o'clock, 12 o'clock, when still in the afterglow of sunset. After the train Jiayuguan in the eastern time, evening, walked Shuoshuo a myriad of golden sand loess, the Jiayuguan travelers suddenly appeared in the front of the carriage suddenly dull passing a pleasant surprise. Jiayuguan is located in the Hexi Corridor narrowest point, 15 kilometers away from the mountains north and south, the situation advantageous, in the desert mountains against the background, the even more momentum with big world. End of the Ming Dynasty Great Wall of sodu the Rochester, side walls lurches violently to unexpected out, I really like the endless desert mirage. Air swallowing thousands of miles, such as the Great Wall of China tiger was about to brake so much off the end of the city is really an ancient masterpiece. At this point, a huge muddy the glorious sunset park closed in the things between heaven and earth floor, silhouetted against the post, such as the setting sun under the city walls of blood loneliness, scales in light lofty turret Qiaoba. And west, Yang Guan, foreign land the enemy, sunset floor head hung down sound, the Qiangdi resentment Liu and other oils, however, the poetic mind.
After a Jiayuguan, as well as a deterioration of the loess section of city wall and disappeared the present, the afterglow golden under the mapping of the ancient city wall and beacon towers are so solemn quiet, no signs of human habitation there is no song, or even sand are not, only the bronze of a yellow . Earthquake is the most proactive end of the most seen along the section of wall, walls, the arrows are in yellow mud into the stack, and in the end even a bend, heading straight for the railway from the end tilted forward to disappear below the subgrade . I believe people will remember that the west went to see this wall with the railway intersection of the moment when the impression. Under the blazing heat of the western part of the last section of the Great Wall went so far as is the case, which is the eastern end of the old Great Wall, led by a length exploration into the deep blue waters of the Stone stray so far away.
Since then, the train the limitless expanse of the Gobi Desert in the road, the slanting of the sun in heaven and earth has been compared with the end. Liuyuan stop until around midnight when the sky was gradually lost its luster. The Gobi Desert moonlight as water, but very cold. During the day the sun out of steam quickly lost. But I know that in liuyuan hundred kilometers south, is Dunhuang, Sanweishan, Mogao Grottoes, Mingsha, but Southwest is the Yang Guan is yumenguan. When the sun rises tomorrow, the west, the sun in turn what a glorious historical sites such as waiting for me.
