Prior to Xinjiang in the received message is contradictory, a friend specially from the Internet to find an article to me, the effect that the East Turkistan elements of the Chinese on how cruel, Uygurs murder, no one tube, and so on. Another friend of doing business in Xinjiang, said there is very peaceful, which made me determined to leave for Xinjiang, the idea to see what was going on.
September 10, 13:10, Jinan to Dunhuang, capped with 290 yuan. 1085 visits were Jinan train bound for Urumqi was originally Express, 48 hours to Urumqi, because of the fare was too expensive (sleeper to 5.6 100) No one sitting, had changed to the Green Paper climbing by the Jinan and Lianyungang open the next day out, is the operating mileage of China's longest green car. As the cheap, to a season ticket would be very nervous, looking for friends on a railway ticket to be bought out, fortunately, is the increase of car is a car at the end, relatively clean.
I lower berth is the two soldiers, troops in Jiuquan, this is the back office procedures jobs, "Do not Talk to Strangers" is a common sense of travel, but I went out one person to Dunhuang to the third day morning, do not speak still do not suffocate ah, although they wear civilian clothes, the soldiers still could not conceal the temperament, and they also stood covered with a bag, the above China's first manned space flight printed commemorating Oh, yes the military is correct. Along the way we get along well, they speak a lot of force on the thing: a warrior when the learner drivers, class elders let him honor, he things too hard and jumped in; dedicated locomotive moved into the family zone, drivers patronizing, and his girlfriend chat, and found that the situation does not, the horror turned and ran, the result has been sentenced; a soldier to carry out the herders of the LP, also played a meal herdsmen were escorted on the way home, stole a gun, returned with a vengeance, resulting in Lanzhou has been killed; time to have been fast.
The next day afternoon, bus to Lanzhou, excess up a people, migrant workers, dressed in a lot of cigarette burns on the arm of the scars, sleep on the bus, no luggage. "Is not a thief ah" People are very nervous, soldiers up the conversation to catch the thief, said: "The thief is evil, and to seize should be sent to prison," said as he turned away a fierce looking at him. Only later did I know that this person is to go to Turpan wells, luggage companion there, a false alarm.
At 4:00 on the 12th, car went to Jiuquan, they got out, I get up and send them to the next car with each other goodbye. The train opened half an hour, they arrive at Jiayuguan, I had intended to Jiayuguan in the first leg may be too soon, but also the day a car driven six hours to Dunhuang, forced to give up. Vehicle and time of Jiayuguan, while opening their eyes, but did not see what a dark, had no choice but to sleep shop. Morning, woke up, drowsily of Wang Chuangwai a look, wow, Gobi! ! ! This is the first time I saw the Gobi, a little green and no, not to mention signs of human habitation, "the lonely cloud melancholy watched open the Gobi Desert" is the feeling at this time.
As early as 9 pm, bus to Dunhuang (liuyuan), to the ticket office to buy tickets the next day to Turpan, and other tourist hot-spots, the ticket is different from the window before the empty and was told no votes, it seems that only the Dunhuang luck. The same car down a group of Red Hat, along with flags got into the coach, small square in front of the station, I am the only one who has filled one on the CMB, but fortunately, leaving the last one seat of the. 120 km liuyuan to Dunhuang, China and Pakistan He walked for two hours. Gobi straight stretch of road distance, but the ups and downs the road and saw a big truck drunk general writhing body over, you will be touched by a trace of tension.
The 120 kilometers down the road saw two car accidents: Gangchu liuyuan to see a Xiali in a three-way intersection and in a Yinchuan with a large truck crashed into the glass is broken; an hour later, saw a trucks fell on the roadside, surrounded by mineral water, and then listen to the local Columbia, said before the car accident, a Beijing girl ruined cityscape, died together after four. Car to Dunhuang came to the station near the hostel User recommended unions, boss, said 80 a standard, the Gong Lue said 60, she hastened to say, on the 60 bar. Now every hotel knows the power of the network, I am most not good Kanjia come up with Gong Lue on the worry, and recommends that Web surfers in the printing, then the price down 20%,:)
User who seems just looked into the yard, and never actually lived in, where it is usually the first room the toilet is broken, the second room heater problem, see the sheets fairly clean, I thought we stayed on one day, will perhaps give some thought. To lay down their baggage, go to the Mogao Grottoes, but was the proprietress told that no car, "would not it, so well-known attractions, how could there is no bus?" "Guests are chartered in, or else I'll give you to find rental cars?" I That money fighting vehicle, "to the Mingsha a car?" "three-way car, a piece of money", the afternoon had to go to Mingsha the. Three-way car did not stop poles, waving both stopped.
Tickets Mingsha Crescent Moon 60. While gone through a river north and south, to over 27 provinces, the desert is the first time I saw, pure blue sky, golden sand mountains, leisurely camel, relaxed and happy. Early morning and evening the most beautiful scenery, this time in the desert there will be a large shadow. Photo shoot will be very nice. Entered the right side of the door, there are withered How many pieces, when the camel through the time, you can shoot good pictures. Climbed to the top of the dunes. Seeing the desert less than a head, the word terror rise in my heart! , The following "calm", above the wind was blowing non-stop, the wind with spun yarn, for a while on both inside and outside of the sand. You can sand-boarding, 10 per hour.
In the evening return to residence time, passing through a booking office (as if a flying hotel), "set tomorrow night in Turpan berth ticket", "55 booking fee, 25 yuan was an extension of the railway revenue fee" Seeing what I miss doubts explained that "the railway station not in the liuyuan Well, at the Dunhuang received an extension of the railway ticket fee" but did not buy a ticket at the train station, ah, away from home, had confessed. Night market night Sha Chi Yang yakitori, Dunhuang is not, how far you can not go into.
Passed by Holiday Inn, very good, into one asked, single discount after 80, Mix to Dunhuang can go here to find out. In order to attract customers, the night market is now wearing a string of lamb, and two string, significantly, very delicious.
13 Early in the morning, in the bus station to find the entrance to the Mogao Grottoes of the car, 25 highway, and from 20 yuan, 11:30 back, I am afraid not keep up with cars, it only bought a one-way ticket. Mogao Caves (100 million) is the sacred heart of every Chinese, familiar flying, playing the guitar on from here. For the protection of murals, now only 10 caves open to visitors is strictly prohibited taking pictures, cameras are hosting at the door. Visitors can not just out of the caves shall be under the leadership of instructors visit the caves there is no light, the door can rent flashlight Unfortunately, I had no time to go. Mix the last to bring their own one. Explain the very important, otherwise you will be very confused, for example flying on top of a cave, far from disgraced, without guides, that is, according to an hour, not necessarily to find. If you read the 10 caves are not satisfying and can be further Jiaoqian see special caves, Japanese tourists are generally looking special cave, I started with a man behind a Japanese mission to turn a few caves, the guide let me Chinese people of the group, I began to thought that she was a very good heart, afraid I do not understand, and then I look at them 15 caves. Personally think that the 10 caves in a while you study enough.
And grottoes across a road, there is an inconspicuous little courtyard is the site of the Dunhuang Academy, Chang Ta-chien lived in the house, as well as valuable historical information about visitors not much you can go visit the Mix, free of charge. At noon under the shade of a tree opposite the Grottoes drinking a can of beer, faint whirr of the rise, suddenly saw the book I do not know how many times seeing on television are familiar with the Mogao Grottoes is now at hand, the trance-like in a dream.
When to return to when the car had gone. Had played a CHARADE (25 million) back to Dunhuang. To pick up tickets, but was told not to get votes, "there may not be able," I stood up, spoke to her a hand "to pay a deposit that is under contract, the contract is necessary to the implementation of 。。。。。 . as good as gold, "and so on. The other party has promised me that over the past 17 o'clock and then take a look at.
Frustration go home, hostel hall, a handsome girl is on the phone: "We are leaving tonight Dunhuang, Turpan 。。。。。。" tomorrow to see her side of the two large packages Mix No doubt, there are two girls counterparts. . . Hee hee, I walked up to (note that there is no ran and), "Let's be chartered to go along with liuyuan it?", I paused to observe a moment of her reaction to "Tomorrow I go to Turpan", the girl is also very readily, "can ah", and too happy, and when I was looking for another crush around to see how she looked when the tragedy happened, a boy walked over from a distance, "My name is Song", and thus to know This is a small Beijing couples. Together we discussed the good chartered to liuyuan, each 20 yuan, and an appointment to the Turpan chartered together. Rush to booking a place, but fortunately, was finally purchased. Xiao Song is very careful, to the time of the accident he had not seen, so along the way, Xiao Song asked the driver kept the "open slowly."
They have to make up sleeping on the train, we arranged to meet to Turpan, site see.
N949 times, Dunhuang, Urumqi, sent to the car, opened 19.41. 5:00 am, cars to Turpan, I went to the station platform, open the phone Didi two messages: we do not get off Turpan, and arrived at Urumqi. Because of travel already mentally prepared for all kinds of misfortune, I am not surprised that messages are being returned, I saw Xiao Song from a distance, ran over, explained that there is no buy sleeper, it is hard work, decided to go to Urumqi break . See him only a few minutes of parking time, but also ran a special trip for your voice I have some moved: "That let's Kashi Good-bye."
5:00 GMT, Xinjiang time before 3:00, dark days. Turpan station is no large (specifically, should be daheyan station, where there are 60 kilometers away from Turpan, the original railways, when the Soviet Union experts suggest that cities and towns far from the railway, to avoid the bombing). Mighty ducks got into the lights on the bus to pull away, look around, but also left me a person. Came to the station to the right of a hotel, would like to take a break, "No room has." The bag entrusted to the security, went to the toilet, when the ear from time to time can not think of baggage entrusted to look after those who do not know the doctrine, thinking that there are two cameras inside, there are lenses that block, but more than 20,000 ah what the money, he ran if how to do? Came back, I would like to open the package, to see things less No, I saw children honest face, put this idea by any longer. And security lay in his chair for more than an hour to see the East exposing the gray dawn, they went to the station.
Another train stop, the crowd dispersed, they found several people who wear a photo vest looked there, I quickly walked up and asked whether it could carpool with them.
Know they are really lucky, they are five photographers in Wuhan, of which three individuals Wuhan Iron and Steel, and they were very good also brings a sense of humor, we quickly familiar. To see them and the owners of Kanjia, I laughed, "the sky nine birds, underground Hubei guy," What people than Hubei fine, does not lose out. Package of a Gold Cup, two in Sichuan Aunt (both of 60 in), also joined the Turpan trip fare per person 65.
Within a day sightseeing in the Flaming Mountains, Grape Valley, Karez, Ancient City of Gaochang, Sugong tower just outside the three spots saw one, did not go.
Ancient City of Gaochang Xinjiang's largest ancient city ruins, was built in the first century BC, destroyed by the flames of war in 1275. Sunset under the Ancient City of Gaochang into another one appearance, and the people crowded at noon, when there is no vision the downstream angry yellow mound is different at this time of the Old City "live" over, the sun warm gentle sprinkle of high and low scattered , we have the glorious achievements of our predecessors have created the site, the cast long shadows. As an extension of shadow, time seems to take you back to 1000 years ago.
An architectural remnant columns into a head wind erosion has been the appearance of "he" quietly, without uttering a word of the towers, where, full of sorrow and difficulty, and seem to recall the past as prosperous and lively, war and bloody .
Gobi wind had come, but also and more than 1,000 years ago and the same, with coolness, Shumenshulu walk through in the city. At this point, walking in the ruins of you, will be subtle taste to the wind coming from the ancients laughter and sighs. And you will be unconscious for the Old City's "so" the word while he cries.
In the Flaming Mountains, a small group Uygurs Mohammad to solicit, said his house in Grape Valley where to eat, then we can dispense tickets for 80 yuan. There are song and dance performances. His "home" is a big courtyard, the door lengthwise billboards, a letter to welcome the experience of the Uygur style, two brightly colored clothing Uygur girl danced a dance, when we are so he took the camera, but held out his hand to "camera person to pay five blocks of money. " Ancient customs are not a. The cost of food 270, food has a very general, the tickets saved, but also the value of the. Heard that tickets for next year's Grape Valley grow to 100, personally feel that there are many places near the vine son, there is no need to go Ai Zai.
Ride the afternoon went to Urumqi, 180 kilometers, and to go more than two hours. And Sichuan's aunt sat behind Aunt like online chat, "I add my warning to send to those people, I am almost 60, and they do not believe, that a joke, but also told me that some nauseating words" Aunt endless "Some say excessive, and put him into the blacklist, "Aunt has asked me a warm network name, QQ is the number that go back to" add me as friend ":)

Baja high-rise tower in the erdaoqiao, there is a grilled capsule shop is baked and sold, it is famous, is also good to eat. Biting fresh-baked capsule pictures of a large basin, is also very interesting. Bazzarri a lot of thieves, and later did I learn that a photographer taking pictures of Wuhan, the more than 3000 yuan a cell phone was missing. Bazaar has a slide to the right of selling barbecue shop, smoke-filled, one can see that there is no liquor store, Uygur, in which one of the rooms on the third floor devoted to Han and opening up, wine wrapped in black plastic bags for you to mention up.
