Sub to Gansu langmusi, here's smaller, but she's more. Encounter the practice of things when the influx of Tibetans is hill and dale. This is the best film characters such as the timing, it is best to prepare some of the light pencil candy small gifts, and some Tibetans obtain money and goods to the people. Tian Zangtai in langmusi behind the hill, there are some streamer on the ground there could be clues for you to start Lenovo:) about 40 minutes away.

Swim on both sides of the temple in fact do not need much time, but many local people and sharing to their home or tent Huo Tangbian sit, look at their pious worship brings calm, pure mind, you must will go to ponder: Do we have that kind of environment and material conditions, why live so tired? Learn a few local Tibetan for the closer the distance between you and them is very good. I am under the tutelage of Labrang Monastery in Zhuoxi novices learn Tibetan, 3, and then traveled Gan namphou popular. Hello: Autumn yo get Mo; good-bye: Demo Xi; Thank you: Ga disappointing. Time, in time, if you can pack a few people go to bubble cars rolling down hot springs, about 150 yuan, back and forth for two hours bar.
The most famous hotels online course ought to LISA, to their great apple pie, egg fried rice is also good; but opened a new "up to the old cafe" has come from behind the trend, where the decoration is very luxurious Tibetan sense langmusi of no good place at night, in the light warm up to the old li bubble is the most comfortable. The boss treat people is also warm, dishes are also more than fair price. Only coffee is instant, and a bit fabled, called "hidden bar" also better.
4 / 5 langmusi - Ruoergai in Langmusi a daily shuttle trip to the Zoige as early as 8:00 in the road junctions, some more than two hours to spend lake, it is estimated that we do not have the strength and groups of Tibetans looting bit. Langmusi can also be chartered to go Ruoergai, 51 days, then soared, Jeep 450 yuan / vehicle is said to usually only 300, traffic terrible, even off-road Jeep also can help people transversion seven-dirty eight elements. But getting into the territory of Sichuan scenery gradually clear, the vast grassland stretching to the horizon, the distant snow peaks glistening silver, cattle and sheep flocks, such as the clouds move in the earth and the Gers ... ... Sangkecaoyuan prairie than simply Pediatrics a.
Flower Lake in the Langmusi to Ruoergai county middle of the road, have a large roadside sign and a few pieces of large stone, engraved "Flower Lake" and "prairie" and so on to the right-hand turn into car from here a few kilometers, is ticket revenue place, and now tickets are 20 yuan / person, and then further walked pastoralists grazing of grassland, about 3 kilometers to go before the ordinary meaning of the flowers Lake wetlands. Where the Tibetan Mastiff is very powerful, if not have a car, then selling tickets in the places where a Tibetan tent, you can rent a horse or tractor they go, or else to walk on their own in the plains far from bypassing the herders must tents.
Flower Lake is actually a very beautiful place, opposite a row of snow-capped mountains ring the lake, surrounded by luxuriant grassland ecological system. Several upcoming radioactive decay of the wooden trestle and lined up in a lake. Sleek pavilion have collapsed, but still a kind of flawed beauty. Lake knot the thin ice, and sunny blue Such is Life is a kind of raw cold, distant jagged fly with some waterfowl, are said to be protected rare birds. Talk of people said that in here to see the sunset is beautiful, and I saw that car owners may indeed surface in the Department of grassland CAMP, really envy that they will see the most beautiful sunset in Western Sichuan, and we can only slightly before.
Flower Lake - Zoige - estanque (nine of the Yellow River)
To leave the lake and then spent two hours driving distance to the most northern part of Sichuan Ruoergai county has. County is very busy, as well as continental style commercial street. County's traffic police, mostly Cagney and Lacey, but also beautiful and smart, and very warm and can be deployed to help visitors find police cars, really awe-inspiring! The meal if the opportunity arises we must try the Yellow River fish, which is cold-water fish species, scientific name should be called "plateau naked carp", is said to be "a long decade, catty," a very fat and tender meat delicious. The most authentic of the original should be produced at the Red waqen Township, where the prevalence Shuizang,:) is not taboo, then should eat.
County to estanque about an hour, flat asphalt pavement glide long grasslands, good road, good road feel special. If the train ride was only 3:30 pm to go after the car Xiaman fares 13 yuan, so that to be a local one night the next day and then ride back to the Tang Ke Ruoergai or go elsewhere. Estanque should be a town, and then westbound 8 km of the Yellow River is the seat of sogcanggoin 9. Sogcanggoin to climb the hill about 150 meters behind the pack, where watched nine of the Yellow River is the best location, a place Pingchou, a clear stream from the distant days at Bay rains, in the prairie meandering flow, very "Wu belt when the wind" elegant feeling. Under the vague shapes of golden sunset river, some more blue and purple sunset silhouetted against the Dai, do you imagine a clear stream after this九九八十一Road, into a magnificent collection of bend mother river, the kind of patriotic emotions really will naturally emerging.
Go back to Ruoergai County is at night, after the sun sets the temperature has dropped drastically. Accommodation within the county a lot of ordinary hostel for about 15 yuan / bed, the luxury hotel Ruoergai more. County is only one bus to Chengdu and Aba vehicles around 6:30 in the morning start, the best ticket to buy in advance.
5 / 5 Zoige - Red of the original full 140 km, all is a good asphalt road on the way through the waqen Baita forest, that can accommodate camera. Landscape lawn from a purely gradual transition to the woodland. Red of the original that is traversed by the Red Army then this piece of prairie, the county seat little more than dust and wind, consumption expensive than Ruoergai. Hongyuan County, rural residents, many steppe horse riding, a charge of about 10 / circles can also speak into a time-based fee, 50 yuan / hour, you can put your horse bolted, so cool, the quality of the horse than the Sangkecaoyuan Choi Ma Qiang more, so cool. But people on the side of less langmusi Chun-liang.
The original red one, "Vientiane mercy big Falun forest," can be big name for itself, but the locals said that the monastery is very small, not worth a look. About three kilometers south out of town there is a name Moon Bay attractions, and nine of the Yellow River is similar, but the flow is called White River. Days, a little gray, but the sun sets to see a huge rainbow, but also met the Tibetan spent two handsome guy.

6 / 5 Red of the original - Taoping take the red of the original to Chengdu / Dujiangyan direction of the car will undergo Taopingqiangzhai, followed by the driver of the car to say on it. To leave the red of the original long, prairie style will gradually disappear, after a brush through the temple, it will climb more than 4,000 meters above sea level mountain partridge. Across the vast expanse of clouds, passing snow-capped mountains Yakou is the world's miyaluo famous "Maple scenic" Unfortunately at that time in May, or the green tender leaves of green, but the clear waters Huantiao Zagunao with the line, with the former These days the feeling of heaven and earth than Haomiao, where it is marked a lovely mortal.

Taopingqiangzhai was founded in 111 BC, the date, more than 2,000 years. Qiang is a warlike nation since ancient times, which from their legacy architecture, costumes are also manifested clearly. Walled in the original two towers near the millennium, this year's Golden Dragon zhaili Xiaoqiong Iemata fixed a new one. Towers was isosceles trapezoid, each side has a layer of four of the loophole of observation and fire, according to locals said there was the clock, ventilation, five major functions; lower while every household Unicom, dense water network and had to gasp in admiration Ancient Qiang people's sense of urgency. Rocks formed on the towers after the invasion of the Millennium wind, frost, and the war is still intact in the stands, but added the new high-rise steel and concrete dams have collapsed and the advanced science and technology changed, and people and things they are nothing but weak, and this is why? Qiang gorgeous dress, looking with Mongolian roots. Many beauties, there are highland woman's tall and hearty, but no lack of plain woman's gentle feminine.
According to the locals introduced along the mountain going up about 23 hours, there is an even more ancient, more, save more complete Qiang Zhai, because transport facilities so visitors have been scarce. Have time to go look for 12.
