May 30 afternoon from Shanghai to Lanzhou, the sky Piaoqi a light rain, I hesitated whether or not to umbrella, in a sweep of the plug by me, after a very full backpack will give up this idea, back pack into the rain-ri , departure to the railway station and started my journey in Gannan.
Bus surprisingly smoothly, and gives me a lot in advance on the train, settled luggage, looked around and out of the train riders were busy, suddenly phone rang straight up to see two attached short message, mouth pan - a hint of smile, is coincidentally the two friends in wishing my journey goes well, since I determined to go after Gannan, so a lot of similar short messages.
Lanzhou, is to Gannan must go through a transit station, while the express train from Shanghai to Lanzhou take up to 24 hours, I sleep in the upper berth hard sleeper, bored of watching "The Da Vinci Code", this book very exciting, fascinating, time, I do not know inaction has passed a long time. Night when the train stops at Bengbu station, I suddenly felt the train running the line this year before my trip to Xi'an, the overlap, and some deliberately sealed my memory began to wake up, compared to the excitement of that time, the hearts of some sentimental.
May 31 Lanzhou, the train bumps into the cradle of my great, I sleep like a baby. However noisy the train made me up early, and lower berth of the grandfather of two random chat and he told me, Lanzhou has put in a day and a night of heavy rain, I began to wonder whether the decision not Daiyu San wise. 16:29 arrive in Lanzhou railway station, a station know that I was not worry about, though dusk but still bright sunshine greeted the arrival of me. According to online writing zz from sina predecessors, I boarded the 137 Bus 111 interchange in the small West Lake Road to Lanzhou Qichenanzhan, because in Xiahe car united in this bus stop start, there is no car that day Xiahe, we bought a 7:30 the next morning the ticket at the station near the guest house looking for inexpensive home stay there, 25 yuan / bed with shower. Slightly washed out to eat a face on the local characteristics of the snacks ---- clutch. Around the streets of Lanzhou, he was wearing a white hat of the Muslims, the corresponding halal restaurants are also particularly high. 手抓mutton, 18 per pound, where the mutton is too authentic, the taste heavy and eat a little bit uncomfortable. Chiba raise your head and laughed out, Lanzhou University of Technology, according to my experience, there must be a cafe near the University, Sure enough. Distance from the web is no longer a problem, quickly and with friends go to war 80.
June 1 from Lanzhou to Xiahe tour Sangkecaoyuan 7:30 in order to catch a long distance from Lanzhou to Xiahe car, I got up early in the morning, and at the station across from eating a bowl of beef has long been known for pulling, where the ox-drawn and Shanghai can be seen everywhere Lanzhou Ramen is a little difference, soup, beef broth, there is no curry powder, beef cut into small, rather than film, Shanghai was also more than a white radish pieces. Beef taste the same here, very heavy, and I am not a heavy taste of the people, that kind of beef flavor in the lips has been saved to noon. Did not know the bowl is not very comfortable to eat beef pulled me two days to maintain the physical, can be described as a heavy responsibility呀.
7:30 time got on, can drive cars, and there is no time because the battery out of the question not be mobilized, and several staff members saw the car around the parking lot after the Tuizhe Che turning in circles, trying to get the engine ignition, which may be shocked me, if this situation occurs in the way, is it still possible I go carts? ! Toss about half an hour, the results or in the case of change of battery to launch the car, my heart has long been a good change of blaming a waste of time to waste the labor force. The car is only five people sat scattered throughout. The Xiahe need five and a half hours, the driver on the way recruit a lot of people on the bus, vehicles are increasingly crowded, particularly when passing Linxia. Vehicles are full, a lot of people sitting on the floor, the car accounted for the majority of Muslims, the taste of them makes me a little uncomfortable, approaching Xiahe, the car's Muslims have largely replaced the Tibetans, the Tibetan people wearing a traditional sheepskin robes, one does not wear sleeves onto the ground, a red belt tied around the waist is estimated that each year it washed once a rare, but not love clean, their robes is like a magic that can come up with a lot of the same things, eggs, seeds, and a variety of buns pie. Shi Shi ears came the sound of a look back almost passed out, and a Tibetan old aunt to help her grandson in the urine. Car smell more and more unbearable, and I can not open the windows because the speed quickly, scatter the ash is very harmful calendar, I can only try to focus attention on the scenery outside the car on, they are still retching several times , no appetite.
13:30 pm drive to the destination Xiahe bus station, where foreigners are known as Little Tibet, into the purpose of all Tibetans, or monks, the altitude more than 3000 strong light, ultraviolet calendar harm, I edge forward away side added a layer of sunscreen. Xiahe on a street, down the street straight in the end went to a web-Droma famous hotels, where rooms with Tibetan customs, not to my wishes, to live in a Chinese restaurant next door, 25 yuan / bed. The want to have something to eat, to eat a vomit one, what could not eat, mainly where the taste are not used to, but fortunately, not feel hungry. Restaurant owner said that I have nothing to eat is easy to altitude sickness, but I only shook his head with a smile, go out packets of a three-wheeled motorcycle to Sangkecaoyuan, 40 yuan back and forth. When the car the car also sat an old lama, wanted to talk 2, can quickly find the language barrier, only with each other in order to internationally accepted "language "---- a smile playing strokes peace, the old monk is very good . He was not far from a large mud house in the former the car, but then I realized Napian mud house full of live sirrab Leng Lama Temple. Sangkecaoyuan on all tourist spots, there is nothing nice, and much of the grassland has been stopped wire into a block where a kind of contract responsibility Tian taste, can not easily enter. Ride is 21 yuan / hour, there is a small Tibetan boy riding behind me, slowly let his horse stroll, I had plenty of that in Shanghai, horse riding games to learn of no use. He and I talk to horse跑跑, he said it is up to an increase of 20 yuan, would really be doing business ah last 15 yuan to more turnover, the horse began to gallop up, very fast, running a long distance, Britain was I moved a bit the whole viscera, speaking also said that incomplete straight pant, but very cool, the little boy said he was afraid, because his horse is horse racing, for fear that he and I fall from his horse, he can not take this responsibility.
Came back from the Sangkecaoyuan has more than 16 o'clock, and went outside Labrang Monastery of transfer through the gallery. Seen by the devout Tibetans in turn, could not resist to join their ranks, can not turn a few hands began to ache, but they are like a tireless like, listen to people say that if so that each wheel is transferred will lead to better themselves. So, given the late hour did not go into the temple and teach you the Xiahe Street, Street on both sides there are many Cangshi shop to buy a few turning the cylinder, but the price is very expensive had to give up the idea and instead selected some Tibetan bracelet , may from time to those cheaper than the streets of Shanghai. Dear friends of the receipt of a gift Please note that the price down is not a big problem, the most important is to you that I have endured that kind of special heavy taste, the feeling of vomiting did not dare spit it is a hard subject to the extreme. Back to the hotel to buy things down a watch all 8:45 pm, and could be days or a very bright, just like Shanghai 16:00 and more prosperous years, decided to take to the streets thinking of ways to eat a day, no eating . Does not work, nothing to see an appetite for the end only bought a dozen small nectarine. At this point very much miss the variety of gourmet snacks in Shanghai, and even her father was not very good for cooking skill.
June 2 visit Labrang Monastery, gongtang pagoda and Ganga grasslands ancient octagonal white cliffs, and then to the co-operation would have liked to listen to them early in the morning 4:30 Labrang monks chanting, but hang around the Internet last night it is too late, alarm clock sound was heard into a dream, eyes open one to see is the 6 o'clock more. Hurry up and go to Labrang Monastery, first that I do not intentionally want to escape ticket is indeed a temple too too many, I accidentally went to the back door, and no one asked me Mai Menpiao. Hall one by one, no how I go, because the taste of that kind of butter lamps, want to vomit smell, but looked at a rough introduction to the palace gate.
Gongtang pagoda at the Labrang Monastery across the road, listening to zz from sina said Labrang Monastery on top of the tower can shoot panorama, then cover the nose with the clothes to go to the tower may be too soon, no one came to ask me buy a ticket. I use clothes that cover the nose, although the disrespect can spit on the inside is even more rude, and I want to go quickly to go fast, since the bodies everywhere 5 vote to devout Tibetans, on the top of the tower took still turn out of the circle on the a. Opposite the pagoda there is a small hill, known as the Buddha drying units, the slopes are small groups of monks everywhere, leisurely basking in the sun, monks are very young, when I asked a group photo taken, they smiled and agreed, very kind .
Ganga Prairie is located 30 kilometers northwest of Xiahe Department highland pastures, I Xiahe on the street price of 120 yuan a small bag of bread to the Ganga grasslands, felt quite sad about it, but what happened next made me feel very worth it, because the driver was very good big brother. Ganga Grassland and known loud Sangkecaoyuan more than that there is virtually no development, and very difficult to walk, Britain had I jumped up from his seat the entire people could be out at the scenery has become increasingly the United States, the hillside stretching constantly, looking boundless grassland, cattle and sheep flocks. If you do not realize it had come to Xiahe prairie must come here any more. Blink of an eye to the white cliffs, where the cliff into a white, I do not know what ingredients formed Whitehead Yashang have a white pit hole. Is this hole all the zz from sina nobody went on before, I know nothing about it, only know that can access Qinghai. However, after I went to was impressed, I am afraid lifetime Unforgettable, and would like to advise you that can not physically do not go. Driver brother told me that they are a family of three brothers, two brothers went into his off Cidong had never been, so I decided to go with me. I bought a 15 yuan ticket, he was the local people do not vote. What is the day of the Tibetans who have a holiday, I forgot, in short, they have to switch to Mountain Lake and then turn into the White Cave pilgrimage, caves are a group of a group of monks led by a few into, the hole is very dark, a lot of Tibetan people bring their own flashlights, because I was not ready, only the root collar large white candle, slowly look inside to go along with large forces, introduced in Tibetan lamas walking, the driver then will act as a translator to tell me where the hand - find out what and where to use a stone hit three times, everything was new and interesting, when I never thought embark in a dangerous way back up. At first, when the monks told to be careful in front of single-plank bridge, I have not seriously, we one a squat body, pulled his right hand close to the ground, hemp rope, the left hand, or good at taking electricity or candles, slowly across the bridge and moved forward, very, very long distances can not be straightened himself up, even squatting, the first encounter from time to time in the Shek Pik Dongding. Way more and more down tilt, to also become slippery, I have a strong grip while wearing hiking shoes, slip, or straight legs, a fundamental step on the false, attracted me blowing and screaming in front of and behind all the Tibetans In the laugh at me, but I simply not so, and one hand had been pulled not live hemp rope, candles handed over to the driver big brother, two hands full catching the rope has been to maintain a balance, but is still very embarrassed. When the path oblique to 45 degrees above, I have already fell and a body of mud, hands grind a lot of precedent, next to the hole in the cliff a little gap, if not carefully let go is not fun to fall, the heart is very afraid, has been Do not want to die in here呀. Big Brother has been the driver for my photo on my way around and encouraged me and told me to slowly all right, not when they pulled me or give me to take a point force. Lama said that a kind of cave where there are blocks of land can eat, we all pick up a point of taste, because of the local population and the scarcity, I did not move, the driver took a point of big brother to help me over, I put soil on the mouth, no taste, think of famine, when the Qing Dynasty Guanyin Tu people to eat, eat only hunger that can temporarily but can not digest, eventually up dead, ripped open his belly, stomach full of the kind of thing soil. Impossible to walk in the cave, all pull hemp rope, Mao Zhaoyao, feet moved forward side of the road slippery, and even in some places people should all be lying on the floor too. I have already exhausted from time to time is called the driver brother monks asked when we can go out of its hole. When two hours later, I climbed out embarrassing cave, even a kind of Kate man's feelings. Then I found surprised and I went along with the Tibetans have a lot of the older elderly, more middle-aged woman carrying a child, I admire their vote to a five-body. We all like rolling across the mud, like the hands of Shi Ni layers of down fall. I saw the driver brother's shoes, at the end of a very flat, should be more slippery is the ah, how he was more relaxed than I do, there is a possibility that is what I am two days without food, legs become soft, so only confused helter-skelter. I give myself to find reasons for them, a balanced mind a lot. Then another car rushed to the Ganga grassland areas ---- the famous octagonal city. This is the ancient city of the Han Dynasty, is now being rammed Canqiang a large, enclosed villages appear in this grassland was very quaint, the city also makes people feel dilapidated houses, the idea is very genuine . Since just over 3000 on the plateau above sea level do more than two hours of physical activity, I have no interest in exploring the ancient city of detail. Laborious climb up the outer city walls, the pattern of the town took some photos on the car returned. The return is still very bumpy, but I have already tired and fell asleep. Back to Xiahe around 4 pm when, in the right drivers, many thanks brother good-bye immediately to the co-operation on the long-distance truck Xiahe, 9 yuan, way to take 2 hours. Cooperation is also called Ling City, said that cooperation has a Milarepa temples, but I did not teach you too tired. Directly to the house closest to the bus station hotel stay inside. Down to find out what the house is not a Moslem-opened restaurants, points of the two Deli, be properly eat something. Then pull away from Nawan cow had at least 36 hours, during which I took only a dozen or so small nectarine, ultra admire his good health.
June 3 langmusi co-operation, start early in the morning Tianzang Tai is also a nearly six-hour drive, Gannan areas is not very convenient, also am a daily shuttle bus bound for one to two parts. With the experience of two previous car, this time I have done some little preparation, that is, cover mouth and nose with wet tissue paper, this has two advantages, first, Gannan areas drier, full of gray, my the nose often have bloodshot eyes, wet tissue paper, the role of self-explanatory. Second, a significant easing of that kind I do not love the taste of smell. The langmusi Gahai the way through, although that the sea is only a lake, landscape is very good, due to the terrain than the Ganga flat grassland, so a more open field of vision. Until 2:30 p.m. before the langmusi. Langmusi's largest hotel is Jen Green hotels, the Internet has been favorable, but is located in the most inside, I feel inconvenient, but finally moved into langmusi hotels, guest houses like langmusi renovated, looks very clean. The boss heard I was on-line hotel very pleased to know that he gave me a price, with shower, 25 yuan / bed. Langmusi place is very small, took to the streets raise your head and saw Lisa Restaurant, where the proverbial apple pie, however, hastened to point a taste and add a bowl of yogurt. Apple pie 8 yuan a sufficient amount of very, very fragrant indeed delicious, that is, and so on for far too long, yogurt with honey is also very delicious point. Lisa Restaurant notoriously worshiper of foreign things, if the presence of foreigners must do first to help them eat, but fortunately, I went to when others did not feel that their service is not bad.
Langmusi in Sichuan, Qinghai and Gansu border, temples can be divided into Sichuan, and Gansu in the territory. I teach you of the Gansu side of the temple, bought tickets for 10 yuan, was surprised to see the temple hall closed, saying it was late, missed, and I flew into monks found a theory, they are still reasonable, and pick up the keys, I went with a stroll around in a circle and explain a bit. Beyond that out of the temple on the hill to go to the Tianzang Tai, Tian Zangtai residual bone is really everywhere, but did not see the burial process. However, this very different burial and Han Chinese have to have a certain endurance to view it. I am very careful the way to go as far as possible not to step on residual bone in order to show respect for the dead. In the Tian Zangtai look a bit windy when the streamer, and I felt the cold touch of Italy, and hurried down the hill on the drive. A light rain began to Piaoqi the way down, back to hotel after hearing the rain, under the more bigger, playing in the window on the very loud voices. I am secretly happy I am, God help me to complete all the places I want to go after it began to rain, but who feel that more and more cold. Sleep at night to wear long-sleeved pants covered with the quilt, plus blankets, still warm enough that time thought themselves Tianzang Tai fever on the wind blowing it.
June 4 langmusi to co-operation in Lanzhou in the morning, a house on the shock, I would like to sleep at night so cool how it turned out, it snowed, snow in June where the plateau's climate is indeed fickle. The nearby hills all white, and I hastened to again and again with cold hands reins by pressing the shutter to record it all. Co-operation from langmusi back to a daily 7:01 am bus, I am afraid no seat so a small car for half an hour in advance to parking. In the car did not come to that time, can be frozen to death of me, I am standing straight stomping, anxious to play routines, where heating. Sure enough, the car is small, good thing I come back, or else could only squeeze sitting on the ground. Langmusi of cooperation 6 hours, off flew the shuttle replaced co-operation in Lanzhou, but also 6 hours, Britain had 12 hours to go hundreds of kilometers, I fall to pieces faster bones, which is all the most uncomfortable journey day. Arrived in Lanzhou is more than 19:00, and hit the car station, along the way quite worried about the box office closed, but fortunately, quite smoothly, the next day and bought a sleeper ticket back to Shanghai, Lanzhou, a heart finally consolidated, the self-help You would never know the end of the number of the. Decided to reward their own look, Zhu Dehao 1:00, he was admitted to the station opposite the listing of Samsung's Hualian Hotel, standard room 120 yuan a really small guest houses along the way can not be compared to clean and more comfortable luxury. Not far from the hotel found a snack street, Da Panji, drawing bananas, Zhangye rub roe everything, it is worth mentioning that the dishes here are very cheap, 3 cents a bunch. I where are eating what they think of these two days are not used to eat to fill the whole back, eating stomach slipped round, happy grin, at home and then find the Internet cafe, to all my friends informed, I have to go home.
June 5, Lanzhou, tour the Yellow River Bridge, the Yellow River like a mother to return to Shanghai train ticket is more than 12 noon. I do not want to waste the whole morning in the hotel provided free breakfast eaten, I boarded the train station near the 34 road around the city line, to visit the Yellow River in Lanzhou markers ------ Zhongshan Bridge, first bridge. Unfortunately, the bridge maintenance, only Lex himself, could not walk on the bridge of. Riverbank Road, Lanzhou, Shanghai's Bund is equivalent to the way a walk in the warm sunshine, it is freehand. By the way his mother looked like the Yellow River in Lanzhou unique, water tankers, sheepskin raft. Snack Street before the train went to a distinctive Lanzhou packaged snacks, catch a train, slowly passing out of Lanzhou, left the Gannan.
June 6 train back to Shanghai on time at 1:00 docked at Shanghai railway station, set foot on familiar lands, see the bustling crowd, I feel warm, while the end of my first self-Gannan travel backpack.
