2004.4.30 Lhasa 25 ℃ Chengdu - Kunga Airport - Potala Palace (1) farewell to Chengdu sleepiness is also a heavy write in each person's eyes tip of brow, we set foot in the morning inside Tibet journey. This time, across mountains and seas of the visit will bring us what kind of pick up?
Aircraft along the spiral flow, allegedly because of the elevation difference between Chengdu and the plateau so many reasons, we need to pull only when sufficiently high ridge over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Lifeless people in the cabin to sleep, out of the window clouds cloudy, good-bye, and Chengdu.
(B) the first one way journey excitement coming soon, someone exclaimed: Snow!
Sure enough, that magnificent scene. From a height of 14,000 meters overlooking the clouds, the endless expanses of white diffuse, such as rough. Wave Fan Yong Department highlights the ups and downs of the peaks of one month, then covered with ice year-round non-oriented Mountain, Wan Si override the gods of all things, and finally isolated in the most holy of the sky showing blurred the true capacity. They show disdain for the clouds, Ren Hao-miao ever-changing sea of clouds and everlasting silence to accept pay homage to the thousands of years people in the world. This is how a continent can be nurtured to such a pure and true!
Clouds gradually dispersed, the main color celadon Qinghai-Tibet Plateau greets those criss-crossing the mountains, the snow do not yet stretch of a thousand miles. Heaven and Earth luck really uncanny workmanship, Baqianwannian before the ocean today, also where to find?
(C) Chu Shi founded on a sandy plateau above the Kunga airport, surrounded by mountains with one of highland scenery. Here, the dazzling sunshine, becoming the first plateau in receiving our envoys, the air fresh so I can not remember where the oxygen concentration. I try to play a failure in the city take a deep breath, greed, to enjoy (never thought that after a few days, this kind of action will become a solution to the suffering of the order of the day).
Lhasa's journey by car is another kind of enjoyment, blue sky, white clouds, mountains, rivers, proximity close to the plateau is so fascinating. Blue sky was pristine clean, mountain due to lack of vegetation in shallow cover showing a deep brown, it is the color of sand plateau, nudity out of the original Cuzhuo beauty. During the dry season we do not see the man; Brahmaputra's forceful spirit, and now it is just a soft and thin girl, no matter what, I can make up for this season's lack of imagination. Traveling companion in animated conversation from the Tibetan customs, asking all kinds, curiosity and the novelty of the debut to help us suppress the plateau a little discomfort. My heart has long been the wind to waft everywhere here, landscapes, in front of everything is so real, but is a kind of dream-like.
(D) The Potala Palace, and soon we know what is called "altitude sickness."
No time to rest for a moment, we decided to visit the Potala Palace. There is nothing about the symbol of Tibet, the more people she was familiar with this symbol-like building in the history textbooks to show off, in the album of the coated paper on the silence before, in China's high-pitched voice that had sung. Of course, my favorite "七剑下天山", she was detained Ling Weifeng a row. Only this, it is enough to me to have a good look啦.
Stone on the road along the rugged mountain, it was found here is a bit steep mountain. Ming and Qing dynasties, when a roadside fence like the walls and, occasionally, be able to see some preserved sniper mouth, may be used for preparedness. Brush on a wall by a layer of glaring white, tour guides said that it was just this year's, and this is one of the main body of the Potala Palace: the White House. White walls dark lattice, the walls on the door tightly closed, big and small canopies fluttering blue and white or white on the orange two-color screens cage, the wind in late spring issue "pops" the voice of what seemed to pour out their hearts. May be psychological respect, even where a common paving stones also make me imagination, a scene that was disclosed in more assertive quiet strength, also will be an upsurge of emotion is always flooded. This is when the mouth, tour guide said that this is the Red Palace!
Cinnabar is the Buddhist said to the color, symbolizing the cycle of past life just gods. I have no way of knowing whether it is temporary, but the eyes really shine red and white wins a lot of attention. Red, is the occupation of all of the red, walls, pipes, window frames, what are the red; not magenta, crimson, bright red, is a little dim red, blazing Zhang Yang did not show strength in the paint a deep underlay each of 1 particles. Tour guide told us that that is particularly refined cinnabar red. I then know where the Buddha is everywhere, but this is the wish of people in the world do they not do?
Abdallah, the Tibetan "Putuo Mountain." Here is the original Goddess of Mercy of the temple Mody?
Into the palace, it was some other scenario. All camera equipment were banned, and I think, maybe everything here is simply not the camera to record the bar. Xiang Wu Shou-Central Plains Buddha is not often heard, and a great butter Mody could there? Soon see, a huge Tong Lu, the obvious destroy destroy incense sticks are a number of locations. Overflow in the butter cream, within a thick aroma of divergence, and some approximation of the West Ham cream gas, net, in this Buddhist sacred nature more points. Lamas, or turn a blind eye mutter prayers, or Dimei incense, or small groups, or a pensive loneliness. Individual note of our visit very much in a friendly smile, said Chinese and their limited English language proficiency made me greatly surprised by something like this: Is this an overwhelming westerly wind Mody?
Buddhist temple is the Tibetan name for Translation has long been forgotten, and only in that respect is still clearly remember the benign countenance of the Buddha statue Buddha, Tara King vast supernatural powers. The history of Tibetan Buddhism, already long, long months and years more I do not know how many senior monks emerged, fine Quan Buddhist Purdue beings. Nyingma, Sakya, Kagyupa, Gelug, Tibetan to Bon, the five major teaching continues to this day has long been the open heaven and earth, only that the spirit of worship Buddha hereditary unbeaten before fortune out of the Potala Palace where magnificent Buddhist unparalleled collection.
Another is that, like the pagoda, which has always respected the Dalai Lama who Zuohua immortal flesh lie, then it is surprisingly valuable solemn cast of thousands of kilograms of gold, more emerald, red coral, turquoise 4 weeks decorating, almost like a national treasure in general, the Tibetan people's piety Xiangfo and theocratic rule of power is evident.
Potala Palace, the Golden shine, gourd-shaped roof, the eaves ring tones sound crisp, French mantle wind breeze. Yang Guan sprinkle the time, one time on suspected Foguangpuzhao. From the hilltop overlooking the Lhasa at the earth, building overlap, intersecting roads; distant mountain peaks, looming peaks. Think this is the world's highest land, once the number of turned upside down, how many parting clutch! Buddha overlooking the sentient beings capable of supreme compassion, all sentient beings in the vast mediocre, he also had to bow their heads to see a few of the land upon which it then? Lhasa, sacred soil. I hope she can eternal holy, always so clean open!
(5) reaction down Abdallah, is already 19:30, the plateau remains bright Yang Guan, but has been quietly approached the sunset hours. Opposite Chakpori, the hard-working photographer who has a good frame lens, waiting for dusk to capture another of the Potala Palace, Wei-... ...
Altitude sickness raging hit, rapid heart beat, beat, accompanied by the advent of the endless throbbing of a splitting headache. Perhaps this is the plateau wanted me to pay the price ... ...
