On the Road-Traveling in Western Sichuan

I have always wanted to travel, but I have a Qian Qian knot in my heart. If you think too much, it will be difficult to do it in the end! Thanks to the invitation of a friend, I didn't think about it a thousand times this time. I really came to travel!

From July 1 day, a group of eight people and two cars took the northwest line of Sichuan and didn't go back to see the grassland scenery along the way. July is the season when the grassland is in full bloom.

Arrive in Wenchuan at noon and go to Yingxiu via Chengdu. This is the hardest hit area of the 2008 earthquake. What is now unfolding before our eyes is no longer devastation, but a new city with perfect transportation facilities and people living peacefully on this land. Dayu's sculpture stands on the main road of the city. Kicked away, many beautiful girls and handsome guys rushed to take photos with Dayu's predecessors. Awe! Take a break and move on. We began to travel between mountains and rivers, and the noise of the city gradually moved away from us. Post-disaster reconstruction, the road conditions are very good, and we arrived at Qiangzhai, Tao Ping, Lixian in a blink of an eye. The stockade here is very distinctive. The walls are made of cobblestones and flaky stones, and the stockade lanes are criss-crossed and mottled. Millennium Qiang village, folk custom inheritance. I danced all night, but I didn't know that Hongri was a primary school student. This poem is used to describe the folk customs of Qiang people.

At dusk, we came to Aoyaotang at an altitude of more than 3000 meters. Suddenly from low altitude to high altitude, my body suddenly felt very uncomfortable. In addition, the scenic spot is at the tuyere, and the cold wind is pressing. Nevertheless, the first time I went to the grassland, the grassland appeared, and there were few yaks, but the brothers and sisters scrambled to stand next to the landmark buildings in the commanding heights! The afterglow of the sunset is charming and colorful, and I can't help but be a little excited! The first day I settled in the collector, everything went well!

This trip is just for me. It is more or less casual. I have never been to every scene, full of fresh curiosity and yearning. Sitting in the co-pilot, there is no friend's focus on long-distance driving. I long for the scenery I can see.

On the second day after entering Aba area, the sky was bluer, the clouds were as white as milk, the grassland was bigger, there were more cattle and sheep, and the colors were brighter and richer. People follow the car shop, but their hearts fly with milky white clouds of different shapes and sizes in the blue sky …

Despite the long-distance bumps, I am still in high spirits, for fear of closing my eyes and missing the slightest bit of beauty. Unconsciously, I arrived at Baoyuze at dusk. Baoyu was located at the junction of Sichuan, Gansu and Qinghai provinces in. Baoyu, located in jiuzhi county, Golog Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, consists of many peaks with an altitude of more than 4,000 meters. There are 360 glacial lakes, each with its own landscape. The main peak is 5369 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak in Bayan Kara. We arrived at Fairy Lake. In the scenic spot, it's raining and it's getting dark. The tour guide friend, who is a travel expert, is very clear about the situation here and soon settled us in a board room. And don't elaborate on food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Soon the rain stopped and the sky was full of stars. The scenic spots are all tents or board houses, and the lighting electricity is also temporary power generation, which is only one or two hours. The mobile phone was photographed all the way, and it was turned off at the destination, so it could not be charged. Completely entered the original state of no electricity, no water, no wc and no communication information! Celebrate the temporary residence in the scenic spot with bright starry sky, showing a kind of quiet, hazy and romantic beauty! Lying in bed, the door is open, the lawn is in front of me, the stars are shining, and Gesang flowers are blooming everywhere. Glacier dimly highlights a corner, which reflects the starlight. Colleagues all feel shivering. I seem to be in a meadow flower sea, accompanied by moonlight, sweet and trance ... Suddenly, a sika deer appeared at the door and walked back and forth gracefully. Maybe it is looking for a unrequited love flower on the ground! [em]e 120

It may be altitude sickness, a little headache and cough, and I didn't sleep well all night. I didn't get up until five o'clock for fear of affecting others' sleep. Gently closed the door, fascinated by the scenery of Chenxi Yu. Walking carefully on the meadow, for fear of disturbing other travelers and stepping on underground elves.

Where the sun rises, the sky turns white. Walking on the grassland plank road by dim light. Frost accumulated on the plank road all night. It's white from a distance, and it creaks when you step on it. You must walk carefully. On the left of the plank road is Fairy Lake, and on the right is a very large meadow sea of flowers, and the rolling mountains embrace this holy land. The peaks of the lake depend on each other, just the tip of the iceberg is exposed between the peaks, like a blooming saussurea involucrata! The sun gradually emerged from the distant peaks. It was sunny and misty, and there was a jade belt floating between several peaks. Is this what the legendary hero and heroine tell each other?

The sun is rising, the sky is blue, and white clouds are floating around. Occasionally, an eagle or a white crane crosses the sky, and birds and bees dance in the sea of flowers. The flowers in the sun are colorful and graceful. The green water is rippling, and the fish are leisurely and calm in the shallow water, group by group, ignoring the existence of tourists! What a quiet and vivid picture! I am completely fascinated by this fairy lake filled with fairy fog!

When life sets sail, there is always a way back. The first stop on the way home is next to Fairy Lake, which is one of the many lakes in Baoyuze in 2008. It has neither the beauty nor the popularity of Fairy Lake. There are few people here, the lake is winding quietly, cattle and sheep are flocking on the green grass on the hillside, and the shepherd boy is riding a horse to eat grass. We went, and the herdsmen warmly received us and took out a large piece of yak meat to share with you. On a whim, I also got on the horse, and the shepherd boy led the horse to the lake. The first time I rode a horse, I was a little scared and clutched the saddle with both hands. Shuttling through the yak herd, I seem to be a little girl eating grass, with blue sky above her head and grassland under her feet, singing the song of grassland, and the huge yak is getting smaller under my feet, which is simply beautiful!

On the third day, I hurried down, my eyes were full, but my body was tired and my stomach was empty! After eating instant noodles and dry food for two days, all my friends are complaining and eager to have a big meal. Seeing everyone failed and depressed, the captain sympathized with the people's feelings and stopped on the way. At three o'clock in the afternoon, he found a hotel in Jiuzhi County and made an exception to go to a restaurant for a big meal! [em]e 102[/em]

The destination of the fourth day's trip is Jiuqu Bay of the Yellow River. After a night's rest, everyone recovered. From Maqu in Gannan to Zoige Prairie, the dusty county road was rebuilt for several hours, which was somewhat depressing. However, the scenery is on the road. Yaks are in droves, or in the flowers of hills or plains or lake meadows, or lying lazily in the middle of the road, so leisurely that when the car comes, you have to stop and wait patiently for yaks to pass by. Occasionally, when I meet a flock of sheep, I feel that sheep are the guests of the grassland! We only made a short stop at the first bay of the Yellow River. Looking around, it is an ordinary river with a slow and steady flow and no waves. This is a far cry from the choppy Yellow River in my mind. Don't look at it! However, several tents near the Yellow River Bridge are very Tibetan. Shoot, shoot a landmark building, and return to this place, which is a tourist feature of China!

Grassland scenery changes with the flow of colorful flowers. Unconsciously, the car drove into the vast Zoige prairie. Against the blue sky and white clouds, the grassland is colorful. Goose yellow, purple, white, pink and light blue flowers compete with each other. Yellow flowers are the most. From a distance, they are golden yellow and form a wonderful landscape oil painting with the lakes in the hinterland of the grassland! On the desolate edge of Zoige grassland, the scenery is unique, and many beautiful women put on bright skirts and colorful scarves, posing various poss photos, which are elegant and feminine!

The wide Zoige grassland highway, with a speed of 70 kilometers per hour and a 40-minute drive, seems to be a heavenly road without turning. Really sigh the vastness of Zoige grassland! Roadside tents are dense, tourists are woven, and yaks are leisurely scattered in the grassland flower sea. Two poems suddenly came to mind: the sky is gray and wild, the wind blows and I see cattle and sheep! Although there is no poet's genius and lofty sentiments, I am intoxicated with the fantastic scenery of the grassland.

When it was getting dark, we arrived at Jiuqu Bay of the Yellow River. The sun has set and the fiery red clouds have not yet appeared. It is said that the sunset here is very spectacular. The captain is a photographer, and he is a little lost because he didn't see the sunset glow as he hoped. We live in Tangke town a few kilometers away and look forward to the sunrise the next morning! In the hotel, the drinking water is a little yellow, and the proprietress repeatedly explained: Yellow River water is not originally dosed, and Yellow River water is not originally dosed! I think it's funny, but thought-provoking!

At five o'clock in the morning, I began to climb the mountain to watch the sun and overlook the Yellow River.

Sunrise always rises in one direction, the only difference is that its background is different, and the position and mood of the people watching the sunrise are different. Sunrise is always gorgeous as fire. Climb a few hundred meters of the plank road ladder and witness the whole sunrise. It feels particularly comfortable! Turn around and you can see the Yellow River. In the early morning, the nine bends and one bay are gentle and quiet, and the grassland plank roads crisscross, allowing tourists to get in close contact with the Yellow River. The Yellow River water is like a silver snake stroking the grassland and circling. It is also the Yellow River. The water in the upper reaches is clear and soothing, and the water in the lower reaches is turbid and roaring. The Yellow River, known as the mother river, has never known how many literati have splashed ink and recited poems since ancient times! I think it is the clear and compatible heart of the mother river that makes the sediment flow down where she has been, and all the rivers flow into it, causing a turbulent situation in the downstream!

The car has been running on the grassland, and I have seen enough of the graceful grassland, but I have not stopped in the Hongyuan grassland. I just took some distant views on the observation deck of Moon Bay in the drizzle.

Along the way to the west, we also visited the Siso residence and Jiaju Tibetan village in Zhuokeji Tusi Guanzhai. The distance between the two places is about 200 kilometers, and the altitude is only over 3,000 meters. It has rich vegetation and beautiful scenery. We have been shuttling between mountains and rivers in Jinchuan. These two villages belong to Marcand County, Aba Prefecture, Sichuan Province, and Danba County, Ganzi Prefecture, respectively, and both belong to Jiarong Tibetans. The house is surrounded by mountains and waters, facing south, and it is patchwork. It has the architectural features of Jia Rong's Tibetan stone house. In Jiaju Tibetan Village, Jia Rong's sister Gema warmly received us. Accompany all the way to visit the Red Army ruins and houses. Explain the characteristics of good housing construction and local folk customs. Jiaju Tibetan Village is near Kapama Peak in the back and overlooks Jinchuan Canyon in the front. /kloc-more than 0/40 houses are stepped, standing on the hillside and wrapped in green. I think the Jiaju Tibetan village in the cloud must be a mirage! According to Gema, both of them are Jiarong Tibetans, separated by a Jinchuan River, and their language is completely impassable, so they can only communicate with each other in Chinese. I really feel a little incredible!

Yiyi bid farewell to Jiaju Tibetan Village, and we went from Bamei to Tagong to Kangding Airport, and finally settled in Mugecuo Medieval Hot Springs. This section of road 100 kilometers, most of which are under construction. The unfinished road section is also full of potholes. The car has been driving carefully to ensure everyone's safety. The altitude is high again, the grassland comes into view again, and the car is driving in the flowers. It's raining. It's raining a little hard. Through the window, the flowers in the rain feel more lovely and charming. In this rainy day, I can't help opening the window to breathe the smell of flowers and plants!

I rushed to Zhonggu Hot Spring and stayed in a Tibetan family. The proprietress cooked a sumptuous dinner for our party, and even served a big bowl of soup with sliced wild mushrooms. This makes everyone so moved! Because each of us only has 90 yuan for accommodation, including breakfast and dinner, and enjoys indoor and outdoor natural hot springs. This is the real low-consumption and high-grade enjoyment! Compared with three dollars in 2008, Baoyu took a cup of boiled water, and the proprietress was simple and kind! That night, everyone comfortably soaked in hot springs and fell asleep easily …

On the eighth day, Kangding love song Mugecuo. From the prime of life to the sunset, Kangding love songs have been growing with us, and we are full of curiosity about everyone here. Take the scenic bus to the Gold Coast at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters. Pinghu is full of blue waves, with full of green at the foot of the mountain, and Tibetan murals embedded on the hillside or stone wall, which can be seen everywhere. The flowers here grow taller than other places, probably because of abundant rain! Fancy and gorgeous. The winding down Cuiguxia Road, due to the drop, the water is rushing and roaring, and the water is not seen, which is magnificent. There are many kinds of azaleas in the canyon, but it's a pity that we came two months late and couldn't enjoy the amazing beauty of azaleas! Qise Sea is 2600 meters above sea level, which is not as beautiful as expected, and Pinghu is not surprising. Catch the last bus, the sky was shocked by a rainbow, and everyone cheered on the bus. The driver stopped temporarily so that everyone could enjoy the rainbow from all angles and take photos as a souvenir.

…

At this point, this trip to northwest Sichuan is coming to an end. There are two or three scenic spots on the way home. I took a quick look at Luding Bridge and the Hailuogou that I just passed. I want to compete, but I can only look forward to my next trip. The whole journey is 2400 kilometers. Along the way, all our friends United and helped each other, leaving our footprints and laughter all the way.

Borrow Jin Dian's next sentence as a conclusion-or study or travel, there is always a body and soul on the road! In this life, on the road!
