Starting from Chengdu, via Dujiangyan and Wolong, Yingxiu, Balang Shan, history of more than seven hours, experienced a 35 ℃ - -4 ℃ temperature changes of the seasons, reached the foot of Siguniangshan - Day Long Zhen. This is a small town, the local people for centuries have played an awareness of the outside world a window, through which the extension has been "" Long Day "" This title, combined with the prosperity of the tourism industry in recent years, but also from day to day Xinglong the.
The town's mostly Tibetan architectural style of the main stone Tetsushige for two, three-story rectangular houses, exterior walls are inlaid with Tibetan Wai unique gold and scarlet edge rafters, which I had from the book in the understanding of Tibetan houses somewhat different, in many parts of the internal structure of the localization. But all of this is still attracting a visit in which we want to truly feel what side of customs.
We looked for a distinctive Tibetan people settled down, had heard that the Tibetan people's unique traditions and food, and their songs can be good at dancing, so can not wait with this master of the Carter children chatted with us of his between the different aspects of life. Carter's children is a Tibetan boy in his early twenties, full of the plateau characteristics of the face, made him appear much older than he gave me the initial feeling is that a simple, kind, shy young man, but also made me interested in the Tibetan people, the original more and more favorable impression of.
Carter children told us the original customs of Tibetan people's lives, for example, a favored men, men may marry several wives, while the wife was responsible for farming, laundry, cooking, grazing and other chores, while men are hunting lobbying. If you have a wife for his birth to a son, then the wife's status would be higher than other wives, that is, by her to monitor the other day to day arrangements for his wife. Tibetan woman is nothing status, family meal, the woman can not be with the men at the same table, but even more unexpected is that men, after meals in order to allow them to eat and so on. In short, everything I heard here, a woman deeply resent this, but for us to be living in this modern city where the "" wife, strict control "" the "" system "" I feel fortunate that under the.
About their sources of livelihood, in part, self-sufficiency to meet basic needs of life, the other part is mainly driven by the development of tourism's economic growth, although the living conditions there is no modern convenience and comfort, but early in order to get used to that kind of life the way people, was very lucky and meet the tourism industry to benefit them, but also very much treasure. In addition to Tibetan Kaoquan Yang, drink highland barley wine and buttered tea, and tasting the local food outside, we must feel the Tibetan entertainment "" Kaoquan Yang singing in antiphonal style bonfire party "."
We are fond, after the Carter children will be fortunate to please help us organized a bonfire party, invited a number of friends from different places come together they enjoy the good times, everyone singing in antiphonal style, dancing around the campfire learning Tibetan dance , everyone happy jumping, spoke ... ...
The next morning, we start to appreciate it Siguniangshan charm.
Siguniangshan scenery from three ditch (Shuangqiao Gou, Chang Ping Gou, sea ditch) mountain (Siguniangshan), with and listen to "" to lead "" (a local tour guide) said that in May the most beautiful scenery season - that is, Shuangqiao Gou, so we decided to go Shuangqiao Gou.
Trench on both sides of the plateau-specific layer of rock-shaped steep peaks, pristine forests, Green Land of the meadow, meandering streams, as well as the base stone for the houses Tibetan village, all people feel nature is humanity's most should aspire to place. Siguniangshan for the highland areas, so more use of sea buckthorn tree forest and birch forest dominated, the whole ditch all seem a primitive simplicity, quiet sense of mystery. Carter gave us children along the way explaining how the scenery, and these contacts are people who feel that he's simple and good, let us feel that their precious nature with this simple, natural beauty of the harmony.
Listen to guide told us that, due to seasonal and time reasons, the sea views ditch, and Chang Ping Gou relatively simple, and the most suitable to watch in October, so we go straight into the legendary long-Siguniangshan: it ranges from the cross-sectional in composed of four adjacent peaks, the legend is the embodiment of four beautiful girls, there is a sad for the Beautiful Lady legend: his father to power, and wanted to eldest daughter betrothed to a prince in exchange for their position, their eldest daughter do not want to marry to his father arranged for his marriage, his father was hated heart, amputations of the skull. What makes a sad legend ah!
4 is the smallest girl, but it is the highest altitude (6250 meters), is often "" Girl, "" always gives gentle, beautiful sense, while the four girls Xiongjun tall and straight, and the helmet shape is clearly visible, giving us the feeling more like a "" commanding general "," face towards the sun rose out of place, praying, blessing for something ... ...
More people feel the magic, the four girls, and with a tight foot, "" dragon "," Ridge-shaped mountains, through to Japan Long Zhen, legends which is four girls school "," guard dragon "" to protect the Day Long Zhen people can be safely made on Long Zhen thrive. Just as the four girls are always face toward the place where the sun rose out of prayer, blessing, protecting the magic place.
Although the tour did not go to the other two trenches, made me stay more mystery, more yearning for a taste of it the next time can be.
However, being overwhelmed by these beautiful at the same time, and my heart is also somewhat regrettable.
We are from the noisy city to the plateau, will be immediately impressed by the purity of the blue sky, was living in this mountain valley is full of inter-ethnic character of the lure of the lifestyle, this is where it has a charm. However, they are blending with nature, the personality of this will change over time, as well as the impact of external change, loss of his features.
I really wish some of the world the nature of things that can retain his ever-changing world of the purity.
