Where is the Huangnan Ancient Road? Is the Huangnan Ancient Road close to the sea?

Huangnan Ancient Road is located in the southeast of Qinghai Province. There are eight natural landscapes. The Huangnan Ancient Road has complex terrain and simple transportation methods. There are no planes or trains and the only mode of transportation is roads. So going on a self-driving tour is a good choice.

Depart from Xining (full name of the expressway) at 8:00 in the morning and arrive at the destination Tongren two hours later. Then visit Rongwo Temple, located in the southwest of Longwu Town, Tongren County, Qinghai Province. In Tibetan, it is called Deqin Qukullang, which means "Longwu Dalizhou". The temple is surrounded by mountains and rivers. It was built in the fifth year of Dade in the Yuan Dynasty (1301). It is earlier than the Labrang Temple in Gansu and the Ta'er Temple in Qinghai, ranking first among the temples in Amdo. It was rebuilt in Hongwu in 1370 and subsequently expanded and repaired many times. It is a combination of Tibetan and Chinese architectural styles.

The temple is built on the mountain, with a well-proportioned layout and magnificent decoration. The main hall is located in the center of the temple, with a construction area of ??more than 1,700 square meters and a circumference of 170 meters. There are 18 giant pillars, 146 short pillars, Buddha faces and dozens of statues inside. It is graceful in shape and solemn, especially the statue of Tsongkhapa, which is 11 meters high and has a base circumference of 26 meters. It is full of gold and jade, and even more majestic. There are various exquisite works of art and precious cultural relics in the temple, as well as the plaque of "Master Hongxiu and Wu Miao" conferred by Xuande of Ming Dynasty and the plaque of "Western Domain Scenic Spot" inscribed by Emperor Ming Dynasty in the fifth year of Ming Dynasty.

Buddhist scriptures are taught in Jieba Zhacang and Sera Monastery, and Lengbenkang Village is established in Sera Monastery and Ganden Monastery. Monks from this temple can go to Tibet to study Buddhist scriptures and live here. There were many eminent monks in the past dynasties and they wrote a lot. Among them, "The Complete Works of Summer Cang Gaden Gyatso" by Arou Cang, "Tianzhu Style", and "Elementary Debate" by Kan Qinchang have the greatest influence and are the most widely circulated.

The entire visit to Rongwo Monastery takes 2 hours, and then we will take you to a solitary farmhouse with Tibetan characteristics for dinner. After eating and drinking, we visited Wutun Temple and Thangka Painting Academy in the afternoon;

Wutun Temple is located in Wutun Shangzhuang Temple, Nianduhu Temple, Baoan Town, Wutun Village on the east bank of Longwu River in Tongren County. Gomari Temple and Walker Temple are also known as "Longwu Temple Zhaizi Temple". Wutun Xia Shang Temple is one of the temples in Qinghai Province that has many precious cultural relics.

Wushang Temple is an affiliated temple of Rongwo Temple, a national key cultural relic protection unit. It is called "Huadan Qunjuelin" in Tibetan, which means "Auspicious Fortune Continent". It was built in 1645. There are the Great Sutra Hall and Tsongkhapa Hall, both of which were built more than 200 years ago and belong to the Gelug Sect. Wu Shang Temple is known as the "Regong Art School". The monks here are good at painting, clay sculpture, and sculpture, and have produced many masters over thousands of years. In the hall, there are many precious cultural relics such as the hair of the Buddha, the tooth of the Buddha, the soul bones of Master Tsongkhapa, statues of different sizes, Tang Dynasty sculptures, reliefs, "Kangyur" and other scriptures.

The small Maningjiao temple built in 1648 AD was built in Xiazhuang, Wutun Village, tomorrow. Later generations called it "Magong Niangwa", which means "Old Mother Temple". During the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty, the Wutunxia Temple was expanded from the Shidong Kedoju Jiacuo in the early summer of Rongwo Temple and changed into a Gelug sect temple. In the mid-17th century, Zhigeri Renba, a disciple of the first Xia Cang Gyatso Gyatso, built Toumao Temple on the collapsing mountain in the lower part of Wutun Village, and it became a temple worshiped by people in the villages above and below Wutun Village. Later, due to a landslide at the temple site, Toumao Temple merged with Magongniangwa and was called Wutunxia Temple.

In 1958 and the "Cultural Revolution", some precious cultural relics were destroyed. At the beginning of 1958, the temple occupied an area of ??about 80 acres, and successively built the Great Sutra Hall, Maitreya Buddha Hall, Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes Guanyin Hall, Mi Vajra Hall, Zongka Hall, Longzishi Buddha Hall, Kalachakra Liberation Tower, and Dharma Protector Hall. , 200 nan owed 5 courtyards, 88 courtyards and 4840 monks' houses. At that time, there were 350 monks and three living Buddhas in the temple, namely Jinba Reji and Rongwo Temple Living Buddha Toumao Canghe. During the Cultural Revolution, the monastery was closed. After construction and reconstruction, there are currently seven temples including Tsongkhapa Hall, Maitreya Hall, and Dragon King Hall. There are precious cultural relics such as the five-inch Amitayus Buddha statue made by Songtsen Gampo, the bronze statue of Sanxun Lord, the "Liberation Sutra" written by Jinzhi, the handwriting of Master Xirao Gyatso, and the Tang Dynasty.

The temple is an affiliated temple of Rongwo Temple, a national key cultural relic protection unit. This temple is the most concentrated and typical temple with a collection of Regong artworks. There are many exquisite Regong artworks in the temple.

The murals, embroidery, paintings and sculptures in the temple are vivid, detailed and colorful, fully demonstrating the smoothness and rhythm of lines, the three-dimensional and dynamic sense of the pictures, and have strong artistic appeal and enjoy a high reputation in the tourism industry.

After visiting the Thangka Painting Academy, our first day of itinerary ended and we checked into the Regon Norbon Tourist Inn. The inn has a unique Tibetan style, is clean, tidy, comfortable and quiet, which can eliminate your fatigue from the day.

Traveling is about completely relaxing your body and mind and sleeping until you wake up naturally. After breakfast, you can leave the Regon Norbon Inn on time at 9 o'clock and go to Maixiu Forest Farm (half an hour away) to feel the charm and charm of nature, let your soul return to nature, and have a delicious barbecue in the afternoon. Really beautiful!

Early in the morning, I arrived at Tiantai Qianyang Village with my friends. At the starting point of the Nanhuang Ancient Road, I was pleasantly surprised by the acres and acres of cockscomb flowers that came to me, red and yellow, enchanting. When we arrived at the parking area, there was a lot of traffic and excitement, and there was no leisure in a mountain village. My friend decided that charging day was coming soon.

As far as I am concerned, ancient roads are only called ancient trade routes, narrow paths or must-pass roads. Walking the ancient trails is not to explore the ancient charm of history, but to enjoy the scenery on foot.

Before I started walking, I was attracted by the glutinous rice cakes, round taro, small potatoes, fresh strawberries, ginger, ginger juice, ginger candy and other foods in the village. Naturally, I fell in love with the fruits and vegetables grown by farmers. My friend urged me to walk back first before going shopping. After walking a few hundred meters, we reached the sign of the Huangnan Ancient Road and started climbing. The mountain road is not that steep, it is very flat, and it is basically a stone road. Along the ancient road, there are maple trees in late autumn, red, yellow and green intertwined. The ground is already covered with fallen leaves, and the sound is crisp and sweet when stepped on. Although it is already after the heavy snowfall, the red maples are not yet red and the ginkgoes are not yet yellow. While enjoying the autumn scenery, hikers also regret that the scenery is not enough. It will be even more beautiful after a day or two of cold.

Students drawing on the floor by the roadside; professional photographers with tripods; and people selling cute selfies, so you don’t have to find an angle to take a picture of this or that with your mobile phone. We reached the top of the mountain in no time, forgetting the hard work of walking on the mountain road. As I rested at the top of the mountain, I realized I didn't have to go back. After descending the mountain, I bypassed another village and climbed another mountain so that I could get back to where I came from. I was afraid to go back on foot and was secretly happy. Going further in, the road is no longer a stone road, but a dirt road that has just been expanded and renovated. It's soft and comfortable to walk on. I couldn’t help but tell my friend, yes, I don’t have much free time. When you turn around this mountain to re-entry, you will suddenly become enlightened. The entire hillside is covered with terraced fields, which is breathtakingly beautiful. Pine trees, reeds, weeds, wildflowers and straw decorate the trail down the mountain. Soon I arrived at a village. I thought I was really going to pass through the village, but I took the wrong route. I had to retrace my steps, but I

As noon approached, the sun was finally no longer shy. The sun shines through the maple leaves, giving it a special flavor. The light and shadow on the stone steps and the fallen leaves on the ground are of various colors. Looking up at the towering old trees, the blue sky, branches and white clouds are like a canvas. Inadvertently, I felt a commotion, so I stopped and listened to the whisper of the wind and the leaves, then rustled and the leaves fell. Time seems to have calmed down at this time, like the spring breeze.

Because I was too tired, I didn’t stop to enjoy the pavilion, waterfall and the more beautiful scenery on the descent. After four or five hours, I went up and down the mountain twice. When I arrived at the original village entrance, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. I walked into a farmhouse with my eyes. At this time, there were still three or two tables of people still having lunch in the hotel. The food is delicious and original. After a full meal, there is a lingering feeling of "stopping and sitting to love the maple trees at night, the frost leaves are red in February".

After I came back, I was walking in the county town and exclaimed with my friends. The trees here are all beautiful. Any news? It’s not that there’s no beauty, it’s just that there’s a lack of discovery. I hope everyone can go out more and discover the beauty in life even if you don’t have time to go out.
