This article is written in 2003 during the National Day, my husband and I both self-driving (Riding Alone) 8 days to go north-south line of the Sichuan-Tibet tour Ganzi situation. Although we like to travel several times a long journey, but had no intention of travels and the like. On the one hand they are afraid to write things that can not be posted out something presentable and acceptable, on the other hand we think that tourism is going to personally experience,用心去感受a process. As for us, do not want made public.
The last two years, self-driving tour mode has become the choice of many people, however, with the self-driving tour-related services and associated facilities are not yet synchronized to keep up with, Zijia You people happy in the way, how many will encounter some difficulties and problems, these difficulties and problems currently can only rely on our own to deal with and resolve. This case, the Mix each other to pass information, to do the exchange, that is very necessary to the.
Since we traveled by car Ganzi to accept the baptism of the plateau, along the way we are willing to see, hear and feel things that letter to you that if we can never been to this line, but also ready to provide some of the Mix useful reference information, it achieved our objective.
That's when this article.
2003 National Day, my husband and I are not unique organization of work, out of us used to prepare a variety of trips so enthusiastic preparations for the objective of Zaiqu Tibetan plateau - Ganzi.
We prefer Tibet! Preference for high altitude! Colorful folk customs and diverse natural environment is so very Hunqianmengying!
2002, 51, we have for the first time since the car went to the Ganzi - from Hailuogou to Luding, Kangding, tower and public Danba, Xiaojin, Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong, all the way down from the highland complex can no longer be closed. My heart has always been on the plateau drift - Jiao Yan sun, snow pyramid-like snow-capped mountains, lush forests, clear bottomed river, broad grasslands, lush pastures, is a kind of magic and beauty; folk customs are so primitive , simple; people, man and nature, man and animals get along is so harmonious, peaceful eternity. It is a human Pure Land! I dream of Shangri-La!
For this long journey, sir, specifically to the bookstore to buy back a 2003 newly published "Atlas of Sichuan Province, the traffic," we made a detailed online data collection and query set a travel specific routes, decided to take the Sichuan-Tibet North and South Loop: After Chengdu, Yaan, turning Erlang to Luding, Kangding, xinduqiao along the Sichuan-Tibet Southern line 318 westbound, take Inagi direction, turning Gore Temple Hill, to the elegant River, turning scissors Bay Hill, clamp, sa to Litang, Batang Zaifan Haizi Shan to go to the Cop groove direction, from the Cop to continue along the ditch out of 318 national highway into the Batang territory to be transferred into the white jade in the pine throughout, take County Road - after Samak Sundaravej, Gai to the Bai, continue along this county road north to the region with the Tibet gamtog 317 at the junction of the Sichuan-Tibet Northern Line, to Dege, and then crossing the cho la, to the new road sea, Mani turn on, walking Ganzi, Luhuo, Daofu, eight United States, Danba, Xiaojin, finally turned Balang Shan to Chengdu. The trips arranged throughout the Tibetan areas, many attractions, beautiful natural scenery, rich cultural landscape, and the line of non-repetition.
317 and 318 national highway situation, we would know better than more, is not clear that Cop ditch to Dege County Road between Natiao traffic and related conditions. Prompted us to resolve to take this message from the Travel Tao recommended "religious shrine visit", there are good lines include several travel this road, but public transport is an off-road vehicles. Since the travel agent to arrange tours of this Tao, at least, this Road to traffic. Plateau rains in October and should have no worries of landslides. As long as no landslides, access would not be a problem. We are also relied on four-wheel drive off-road vehicles, so, set the itinerary.
September 28, light rain sunny Yibin to Kangding (elevation: Erlang Mountain 2275 meters) entire 600 kilometers 7 am or so, we embarked on this journey. 10 o'clock arrived in Chengdu, in the three-ring road, when a gas station, see three or four seems to be his family traveling to Chengdu, where cars are refueled on the road quite a number of trips starting the vehicle - we start is not early.
Yibin - Chengdu - Ya - Tianquan the road very well. Exit Tianquan, begun to enter the mountain road. Cement road, not wide, bend more, vehicles and more roadside are everywhere, "Bend acute risk steep slope road, pay attention to road safety" the words of warning signs to remind drivers to drive carefully in the past. Highway Pong Qingyi, the river clean and clear, without any pollution, gives a very comfortable visual enjoyment. The roadside in the mountains are mostly mixed with a plant lies to the landscape than in May to see some worse. Into the mountain road, obviously feeling the temperature began to decrease, and add the clothes.
In the beginning xiangyangzhen, parking a lot of goods, vehicles, mostly cars into Tibet to make up supplies here.
Erlang Mountain road west is still renovation in order to ensure traffic safety and not affecting the construction operations, passing vehicles will continue with the "double day forward, single-sunrise", until 17 o'clock kinds of quasi-pass.
We have used only xiangyangzhen lunch, slowly approached Erlang mountain tunnel. Idly in the noonday sun shines on Erlang, our car was parked not far from the tunnel entrance, patiently waiting for release.
Climbed over Erlang Mountain, and soon reached Luding, we did not stop.
Luding to Kangding road was also renovated, poor road conditions: when the car came with from the dust crowded in upon, even the road can not see clearly. Head to a passenger, the other party make way for parking, from the rear window, stuck a head, a quick one to see: wow! White-Haired Girl! ! Made in: The wind fluffy sticks, the noticeable tread-like hair and how the face would be exactly the same color? ? ? I am stunned and speechless, and dizzy that could react, can not help guffawing! ! ! Take a look at themselves, had become a "gray people", and our truck is not even a nose and eye sight.
Auto difficult to walk in the potholed road, while Leap, while jumping, the next minute like a drunkard, partial over, down in the past, it is difficult to go great. Fortunately, our car can also go in this way, if cars, that strategy was miserable!
Along the way are in parking, so cars, traffic jams, stop-go, 55 kilometers away for nearly three hours later than 8 pm to get to Kangding. Although the first day of travel, but these last three hours, Britain's enough to choke us, and the car will need a good rest. So in the Taining hotel stay there.
As the National Day away from an opportunity to fleece tourists, on holiday there two days time, in order to soliciting a price tag of 280 rooms automatically dropped to 100. In good condition!
