The next morning, tour guide suddenly disappeared, dozens of noisily Naoteng for half an hour, after a series of setbacks outcomes we want to Zuoshang Ju, and not to control movement of a guide, the driver took us to the days by the lake -- Namtso. Just rained the night sky before dawn, the Lhasa city has not woke up, the quiet streets still do not see passing vehicles. Soon out of Lhasa city, cars into the Lhasa River valley, along the river highway.
Because Qi Dezao, where the morning mist filled valleys. When the hidden side of the road when the mountain is, like the silhouette blue, attached to the blue and the sky. Ballooning between the morning mist in the valley and the distant mountains move, is said to Tibet, where there are water, where there are foggy morning like this a lot. At this point a plateau is a broad stage, willing to let the fog changes to display their talents, making all kinds of physical objects have all kinds of changes, dawn in the mountains seem even more mysterious murky shadow. As the car's movement is Yizhenyihuan the scenery outside the window so that you dream to produce a magical feeling. If not on earth but in heaven, walking in general.
Fog cloud is a partner, in the fog to display their talents at the same time changing, cloud to be outdone, the side desperately cover the sun, while tightly wrapped peaks, those of us who just arrived in the plateau, the original hangs up was altitude sickness, which moment have not escaped, Lianren Dai cars are throwing Yunliwuli, and now even the North could not find a.
At dawn, the car window of the valley narrowed, and slowly to the roadside by distant mountains, the mountain has become increasingly high, sitting in the car can not only see the outline of mountains, but also to see the mountain surface structure. Suddenly, the distant clouds pressed down, there are several mountains disappear from the Chamber; another layer of clouds pressed down, the whole mountain all cover up. Car walked rapidly forward, abductions of a bend, a miracle occurred - the clouds like a "white ribbon" will be a department up a hill, and some hill Jigen "white ribbon" wrapped, as if by magic the clouds, mountains is divided into several cross-sectional. On the elevation of the mountains are several kilometers of high mountains, but was indistinct cloud toss with, struggle with; on the texture of the mountains are formed by the stiff stone, but was split with misty clouds, was Rourou teasing the cloud, how do I view all to read, how would like to not understand. This is the magic of the plateau bar.
Big bright at this time the river waves as flat as a territory, the water gently east Xiaguang hazy and mountain shadow. With more and more magnificent horizon clouds, water, Zhongshan and the reflection of clouds become gorgeous colorful, clear and picturesque. Gives the impression, it seems that the light between heaven and earth, not from heaven, but from the water.

Out of Lhasa city, the car-chi on the Qinghai-Tibet Highway. Qinghai-Tibet Highway Daoshi asphalt pavement, conservation is better, the road is very smooth. Is always flooded with traffic throughout the day, it is very busy and become China to Tibet, the main channel delivery of goods.
Through a long and steep gorges, car into the North Tibet Plateau. Driving on the concept green. Tanggula valleys on either side of the terrain gradually open, up the mountain is also flat. Roadside always streams, where streams of water and sometimes kinda big, from time to time to see a large a large wetlands. North Tibet Plateau is very polite to stay away from mountain road, a distance looked high and low lines are littered with gentle hills, while their back is when a seat is now being hidden when the clouds cover the peaks Dangzhe fog.
Foot of the mountain there are some poor grass were yaks, sheep, surrounded by swallowing. To survive, these cattle and sheep are sometimes very high mountain to climb, very steep slope, even in some cliff trace of them could be seen for the red or Tu Hui Chu increase of mountain natural color. We prove that most of the most moving is this: the distance the outline of towering mountains, carefully distinguish be able to see the moving black spots and white spots, white Tibetan sheep, black is the yak. They are in the blue sky, while clouds are on their feet. Black and white mix, where the harmony is so decent. No wonder in the fashion industry is eternal black and white two-color color. In the whole of Tibet travel process, which is always accompanied by black and white 2-color arduous journey boast, dotted with unique scenery of the plateau. Is also a strong impact on your visual senses, so that you stay eternal, eternal, and black and white memories.
In Lhasa, 100 kilometers north, stands the world-famous Nyainqentanglha Mountains, year-round snow-capped, misty, mysterious and inscrutable, stands tall on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. We have seen today is a Wonderful Time I Spent Nyainqentanglha trees, with many jagged peaks of the mountain base, as this sacred mountain of the main peak Mody (peak 7117 meters above sea level), always hiding in the clouds to fog years, it is difficult to see the statue Yan. Looked Nyainqentanglha mountain peaks of varying shape of a seat, you will understand the beauty of snow-capped mountains is pure, straight and proud exposed. When you first see the snow-capped mountains, it can give you a sound unreasonable to moving, a nameless shock, accompanied by a powerful shock. Towering peaks of handsome upright pierce straight into the sky, mountain geometry is sharply angled features, fortitude powerful and exposed roots of a line of black and white, will be handsome mountain and fully presented in your eyes, will be vested with mountain displayed in front of you, straight Tan's explain to you what color, what is natural; naked described to you what is forthright and what is open; Xiong Jiujiu broad to show you what is and what is vast ... .... Even the most retarded people, in the rolling snow-capped mountains in front, in the face of such a majestic peaks, as long as see one, I will be moved, be challenged, have been shocked by, any person who will feel at this moment the great peaks, the world's Broad and his tiny ... ...

Approaching Damxung County town has a fork in the road, cars left the Qinghai-Tibet Highway, the intersection toward Quwang Namtso. (The only intersection) is beginning to rugged, tough road. After the bend, then the only town to see the Damxung County, the most prominent modern architecture - Center School. Looking neat and bright and spacious classroom buildings, look in front of primitive, muddy, bumpy road, I feel incredible. But regardless of how you think that was rough, bumpy road that we go. In the gravel on the bumpy half an hour, to the Namtso the toll station, followed by even the bumpy gravel roads also disappeared. The driver stopped, smoked a cigarette, warning us: sit in the back of the road is difficult to walk. Here just rained, puddles everywhere, cars can only be along the front of the car out of the rut winds pressed forward. I have sat in the passenger-made Golden Dragon at this time showed all of its shortcomings: the sound sent everywhere to make your ears can not stand; the car too rough to make your butt can not stand. The road is more slippery after the rain, the pressure out of the rut is deep, the car can not find their way from time to time slip, issued by the sound even more dramatic; issued from time to time by complaints from driver's mouth is also increasingly great. And the other a Toyota van counterparts, due to the lower chassis is even more pitiful.
Front kept pendulum, the body kept Britain, and we kept rolling along and kept Akira; butt very difficult to smooth access to the seats, there are several almost out from the seat shell; sitting in a row by the middle of the last two people were lying down on several occasions in the aisles. A vehicle people could not take such a violent shaking, have requested that the driver take him slowly. In our repeated requests, the driver speak: "Enough slow, and you were born in Plains, Kusumi city, did not understand Tibet road conditions. Last night why I object to Namtso? Is up to you to come in, you have initialed the signature to know why the guide did not come, right? you slowly boil the bar. ". We are a car person speechless. Yes ah, to Namtso, is the temporary increases in the attractions, there is no run-length arrangement. Last night, I took several other people, after repeated negotiations, finally defeated the tour guide and driver's resolute opposition, promised to add some money, but also a piece of paper to write what all the peril, and after the signing of each fought for the past. Are voluntary, are initialed by the signature, but also the driver say? Can only be recognized, and fate bar! Car slowly creeping forward, rocking, bumpy with a few bottles of mineral water back spontaneously Gunzhe, Morenlikuai; luggage rack of the package is also one by one, smashed down, no one shouting; one car per capita do not think Odd, to say that the spirit had not.
Vehicles in climbing, such as drilling goes, the altitude increases, and the heavens down dark outside, raining again. The temperature continues to drop the car, the most terrible is that Tibet is not equipped with the car most of the air-conditioning, cold and left to attack the car, everyone. Here altitudes over 1000 meters above off than those in Lhasa, we have come to the plateau which is the next day, altitude sickness afflicting the car again, everyone. Some people on board began to vomit. We look atheistic one by one, his face schungite, lips purple, bowed head ... ... "This is what like to travel, look at the landscape, is simply to suffer for." To put it nice! Although the car most people have the same feeling, but has not applauded the spirit of his. Ms. individual is not survive the go, painfully tight with both hands, pulled her hair, side-tracked by a lower head position to reduce the extent of a headache ... ...
To see a car people are of this state, I think: If you now tell us vehicles will be bound for the execution ground, the car people do not have too much resistance, most people have been transfixed, stay in the car and feed the feeling of Hell almost the same. Little wonder that many went to the Tibetan people are talking about "hiding" pale. Connected with our heads just a few institutions in Tibet came back, they said even give him a few million, are unwilling to Zaiqu Tibet. It seems altitude sickness coupled with adverse weather conditions and road bumps, may be the main factor deter them. I run around all day, sat numerous cars, this time to Tibet, has been heard before in Tibet road difficult to walk, but this road is still beyond my expectation, even a real test of the limits of the challenges! I thought: God is fair, in order to see the sacred things, you have to have the difficult to pay. Otherwise how could everyone see Namtso? If the road is good, again in plain, it is the West Lake in Hangzhou is not it? "Sacred" word and where it talk? To worship the holy lake is so easy to do? Do not accept the test, do not pay the price work?
Vehicles have difficulty running for some time, began to climb a mountain pass, the driver warned us: the most dangerous of the lot is up, turn the front of that pass can see Namtso, vehicles can climb up to this threshold will depend on your luck . Hear the driver say this, a car people are anxious, and that Hom Mangwen not climb on how to do? The driver said coldly: You have to get off other cars to help turn around, go back. Alas! If the U-turn back, it is not such thing as the way the plight of so many crimes are not white by it? The driver a few words, such as a harsh gave us a staggering blow. At this time, I noticed a roadside signs: Nagen La Pass: 5190 meters above sea level. This is my car have been to the highest elevation. More dark days outside the car window could only vaguely see the mountain, the wind more, and we could hear screaming in the car. In high-gradient slopes, there are several car almost stopped, I am really worried that the car could not climb the slope of this fatal. Cars roaring, rocking, struggling; outside the wind roared, and the roar of car engines are intertwined, even the drivers are a little grimace in pain ... ... my God! If the car is really Pabushangqu, sliding ... ... Is it signed last night is the life and death? ... ... No wonder the guide told us no one down together ... ... I do not dare think. We all silently pleading with: ah God, help us about it! Fast help us climb the slope that bar! I have to keep close ties with both hands in front of chairs, legs desperately Dengzhe compartment panels, so really if I crash, people can maintain the current state (a little roller coaster ride of posture). Now recall the scene at that time must be sufficiently frightening, luckily a car people are in a kind of semi-conscious state, otherwise, still do not know what to want out of trouble.
To climb, and eventually went to climb! Car turned over Nagen la col mouth. Hung's heart suddenly put down his body become soft, consciousness a little bit blurred ... ... suddenly eyes bright, sunny days of the change (being shut out of the clouds, the mountain side), the sun came out, eyes suddenly see the light . The plateau in the strong sunlight, the people returned to consciousness, broke into my eyes is this: the distance a huge sapphire, one piece white clouds drift above, surrounded by a background of snow-capped mountains and rolling white, yellowish grasslands. Ah! We have just left the hell, and now saw heaven ... ... Shenghu Namtso - Taking such an incredible, unexpected way to appear in front of us. Amazing! From hell to heaven, that is, if a threshold. We are car people are surprised to get a breathtaking not believe my eyes, but also do not believe that the mountain behind, in this barren plateau, in this world there are so many spectacular, so beautiful, so touching a lake. Blue and green intertwined, blue sky and white clouds of sparkling mix that color, the kind of spectacle, this one has made my soul will be purified in an instant, so that I can recall immediately freeze-frame, so that my thoughts and I once again pause ... ... Like a car people have become stupid, and no one's speech, not even one proposed to allow the driver to stop taking pictures down. Cars rushed down the hill, with the mountain of the rotation, Namtso keep it a beautiful display in front of us. I think so far have been touching Namtso, near the lake of Namtso will even do not know what kind of charm to confuse my eyes to exciting my nerves, to stimulate my soul. Ah! I wish I could withstand it all ... ...

Namtso watched from the top after a car all go downhill, the speed is also significantly faster, although still very jolt, but the spirit of the people a much better car, such as stimulants like ate, talked and laughed a. Car quickly down the mountain, along the lake and off the road constantly forward.
Blue sky white clouds, the shoreline attached a vast grassland, sparse grass yellow, there are flocks of cattle and sheep, grazing the children and some yurt. Children's clothing and image, than we imagine to be much less. Children are far waved us on the right to show their friendly and fast to us Ben Lai. Driver who warned us: Do not Remao these Kham children, or else big trouble. We are scared to have closed the window, only in the car, it seems that some countries in Africa, like the park to see animals, watch the car window the blue sky, white clouds; looked at the window of the cattle and sheep, grassland; looking car window beautiful Namtso; looked at those ragged, dirty face of the Kham children. In this way the face of all this, my mind was not the taste. Gezhuojuchuang looked hearts aspire Namtso, hiding behind the window to see the compatriots of the children, is this man? Children of the Kham looked vigorous running, looking both at a face full of dirt and shiny, and innocent eyes no time, my heart tremble: my dearest compatriots, ah! Between us there are so many great distances do? Is this the only way to do that we meet? What makes us such a deep ravine between? China is a family of all ethnic groups ah! ... Really ... mind filled with emotion, never my tears will be tears of force in the eyes ... ...
Car driving on the lake, watching the beautiful scenery, we all Biebu Zhu, and have asked the driver to stop, but the driver said: For professional ethics, and must be sent to you the most beautiful places. Has opened for some time, and finally sent us on an island (and later learned that: Tashi peninsula), we saw tourists in twos and threes. After I get off three-step and two steps to the lake. Looking at the blue lake water, I love photography, the hands of a small Dianzhao camera, do not know how to start with, this film can accommodate Namtso Qili beauty?
From the data, that: Namtso lake elevation of 4718 meters, is the world's highest lake is also China's second largest saltwater lake, covering an area of 1,900 square kilometers long from east to west over 70 km, from south width more than 30 km to the north, the deepest lake more than 33 meters. They cling to each of its rolling plateau north hills, south-east is more than 7000 meters above sea level, snow-Nyainqentanglha mountains, a vast expanse of grassland around the lake started. Namtso is the end of the Tertiary and Quaternary the beginning of the Himalayan movement, the formation of giant lake, the latter due to the Tibetan plateau climate is becoming drier, Namtso area is much reduced. The existing rock line of the ancient lake 3, the maximum distance is now a lake of about 80 meters, we can see how much time Namtso. Namtso now rely on the lake ice melts Nyainqentanglha by a number of different sizes into streams.
I quietly stood the lake: the surrounding snow-capped mountains surrounded by peaks connected across the clouds from the sharp peaks, but also close to the lake rains in my direction. Namtso was so spectacular in front of the! Around the lake rippling blue waves, white clouds which reflected upside Xuefeng; days distant water blending, seamless Shuitianyise ... ... often used to describe the spectacular lake or sea, but this time standing Namtso the waterside, they would understand What is spectacular. Namtso is surrounded by the spectacular snow-capped mountains phase Wai, hugged the spectacular expanse of grassland; is inclusive of the spectacular blue sky and white clouds; is the blue of the day and the spectacular blue of water combined. Namtso is so beautiful, Namtso U.S. are really amazing, can deeply touched everyone's heart, any person in any language and can not be described and to describe the beauty of Namtso ... ...
Looking at the front of the beautiful lake, I have a myriad of thoughts: I am an early age, grew up in Lake Tai, and an adult came on Poyang Lake, Dongting Lake and Hongze Lake, also passing through Chaohu, can not say that have never seen Lake, Lake can not say do not understand beauty. I also visited the Bohai Sea, Yellow Sea, East China Sea and South China Sea, surf-off was considered by many the best beach in China - Hainan, Sanya's 'ends of the earth', but also seen Jiuzhaigou that magical green water can not say no familiar with the water, we can not say do not understand the beauty of the water. The met Namtso, the Namtso gave me the feeling changed my water, on the blue water, beautiful water awareness and understanding. Not seen much slower to catch ah, Namtso deeply fascinated me.
Standing in the lake, watching the movement of clouds, overlooking a boundless lake, I am an upsurge of emotion, imagination ... ... Oh, the magic Namtso yo, you are not the sea, but you originally belong to the sea, you take the sea the mark of the sea Retention traces of the sea still has a taste - the taste of salt water, distributing the sea and the magnificent mystery of the ancient style. You have a collection of thousands of years of snow, rallied millions of years of sedimentation. Is the battle of heaven and earth so that you stay away from the parent, but also heaven and earth do not give way, have you today in this way. Days that you rely on it, but you are on the ground, saying that you rely on to it, and you are 4718 meters high above sea level, you are the world's highest lake Oh! Tibetans to-day Lake laudatory gives you a little exaggeration. Your arrogant, Qing Ji, awe-inspiring stretch your arms wide to embrace the vast expanse of land with the North Tibet Plateau, a highland hills of Fengzi football. I would like to be a snow-covered goshawk, with open wings flying over the sky in your day, and looking at the blue sky and white clouds, watching the lake sunrise and sunset, and looking at Lake of the peaks standing proudly, looking at That four-week green pastures, ... ...,
Before noon when the sun glare, I am still in the lake, watching the lake Fanchuyoulan Youlan color, and my heart can not help but burst of a burst in the trembling. Ming, when the lake appears to mellow dark and mysterious, the pan-fired a variety of blue, layer upon layer upon layer to extend to the foot of snow-capped mountains. Lake to create a different blue, I have never seen this picture. Namtso Lake that is unique to the purity of the plateau with unique blue sky shining on the water, light refraction after the formation of such a crystal Namtso Lake, and transparent blue. With the blue sky color is different from the lake above the clouds drift and the cloud thickness, the lake will produce a variety of blue. I dare say that any place, any time there would not be such a Rosen Lake Namtso blue; this holy blue, painted like this can not tell the blue, which can move my heart, blue, This eternal blue ... ... ah! Blue Namtso! That charming, dreamy blue, clear and drive me into a dream, do it the blue of the starry-eyed dream of ... ...
I was sitting on a stone lake, watching a Mani Dui a waterside, quietly listening. Wow, Wow, Wow ... ... the lake, such as v, such as weep, I can hear the call of the ancient; Wow, Wow, Wow ... ... the lake sounded the solemn holy music, I can hear the lake for the elderly in order to turn bad habits at an early date and rounding issued by the cries of suffering; switch to Lake of women in order to get immeasurable merit issued by chanting; turn the lake while the children in order to be issued by the immortal sound of prayers ... ... I seem to see that incense-filled, streamer fly, fly Hatta , unusual turn spectacular lake scene ... ... I seem to have imported the ranks of this movement has become a surging crowd of ceaseless change in a lake.
My brain seems to be a quiet lake filtered; soul seemed to be pure water washed; a sacred feeling in my body vapor, at a time when the inner peace and ecstasy have become particularly fascinated me ... ... Namtso I was hooked on Namtso ... ...
I sat quietly on a stone ... ... the lake seems to hear the companion kept calling my name, there is a big pressure of cross while I was a god, think of events in faraway places have my warm home; also there are minor children; more elderly parents; there are countless friends ... ... I stood up, left the lake, walked towards the coach.
August 7, 2004 into Tibet, August 8 to Namtso
