Silk road self-help tour
First of all, the traffic is extremely inconvenient. I used to think it was inconvenient to travel in Yunnan, but later I found that Gansu was more serious. At present, Gansu is probably the province with the least high-speed kilometers in the country, and the high-speed to Gannan is only 40 kilometers. Others are mountain roads and national highways, which are not as good as the inner rings of many cities. However, this is of course related to the mountainous area and special soil quality here, and the construction cost of the same kilometer is much higher. However, it also lags behind the development of local tourism. Many scenic spots are only 200-300 kilometers, but the shuttle bus takes 5-6 hours. If the holiday is short, you can only choose Gannan or Dunhuang to go to Gansu.
The best way is to buy a berth ticket to Dunhuang or a train ticket to Xiahe in advance after arriving in Lanzhou. If there are three people, I suggest renting a car directly in Lanzhou, which is similar to taking a train and looking for a car locally, but you can enjoy the beautiful scenery along the Silk Road. Moreover, it also saves time. Basically, you only need to stay for one night at each stop. Because from Jiayuguan and Zhangye, it is difficult to buy berth tickets for the day, which are all standing tickets or hard seats. Because after Xi 'an railway, the speed is basically not high, so it is better to buy a sleeper for the train. It's not safe to get on and off in a hard-seat car.
Scenic spot
Because of time and traffic, Gannan didn't arrange to go, so it was just for the first line of the Silk Road.
Many people choose to go to the Yellow River Stone Forest after arriving in Lanzhou, and then go directly to Dunhuang by train at night. The biggest advantage of this way is to save time. Three days is usually enough.
However, if you want to feel the real Silk Road, you can only experience it along the ruins of the ancient Silk Road.
The specific route is Lanzhou-Tianzhu. Wujiao Forest-Wuwei-Zhangye-Jiayuguan-Yumen-Dunhuang-Amdo-Sunan-Qilian Mountain-Qinghai Lake-Lanzhou. The whole journey takes 8 days.
The most beautiful scenery of the Silk Road is on the journey, not a specific scenic spot. Specifically, it refers to the Tianzhu-Zhangye section of Hexi Corridor and the Zhangye-Sunan section of Qilian Mountains. This section of Hexi Corridor is mainly to feel the natural and cultural landscape that still lives on the ancient Silk Road today. This Duan Yiran is the most fertile oasis on the Silk Road. Sunan is known as the beautiful land of Canaan of Yugur people, mainly in the hinterland of Qilian Mountain, because there are relatively few herdsmen living here, so it is like a fairyland.
The first stop is Xi 'an.
I am a person who doesn't understand history, so I am ashamed to be in the ancient capital of the 13th Dynasty, but I can't understand the vicissitudes and glory of the ancient city.
however
After enjoying the Wild Goose Pagoda in the night, it looks particularly gorgeous under the neon light, and the fountain in the square also adds a lot of life flavor.
I have been to Huaqing Palace at the foot of Mount Li. The place where I bathed with Yang was really magnificent, and I felt a little extravagant.
Climbing over Huashan Mountain outside Xi City, starting from Huashan Road, I climbed Beifeng, Nanfeng and Xifeng, felt the precipitous beauty of Huashan Mountain, and stood the test of physical strength and perseverance.
Climb the wall that blocks Xi 'an, rent a car, ride around the wall, and feel the city of Xi 'an from all directions.
I visited the Shaanxi Provincial Museum and learned something about the ancient history of xi, which is located in the middle of the Yellow River Basin in the hinterland of Chinese mainland.
I have eaten all kinds of snacks in Xi 'an: handmade noodles, rice skin, hot soup, Chinese hamburger, mutton bread in soup, Huang Gui persimmon cake, rose cake, Muslim crisp meat, sheep blood, Huang Gui thick wine, and many others have never been tasted. ...
The second stop is Lanzhou.
I bumped all the way from Xi 'an to Lanzhou.
Eating the famous Lanzhou Lamian Noodles is my first wish when I set foot in Lanzhou.
"Clear, white, red, yellow and green" Lanzhou Lamian Noodles became our breakfast.
The surface of somersault is really memorable.
(p.s. five colors, namely clear soup, white radish, yellow noodles, green coriander and red pepper)
After dinner, I came to Wuquanshan Park in the city.
It is said that there are five springs here, but unfortunately all the springs have basically dried up.
However, in the morning, you can climb the mountain and have a bird's eye view of Lanzhou, breathe fresh air and feel the birds and flowers, which is very pleasant.
Then I came to the bank of the Yellow River, walked in Binjiang Park and felt the breath of the Yellow River.
The Yellow River here is very calm and relaxed. It is not as rough as Ma Benteng.
It is even more peaceful to see the statue of the so-called "Yellow River Mother", because it is artificially built and there is no drop of water in the Yellow River.
There is also an iron bridge on the Yellow River in Lanzhou-Zhongshan Bridge, which is known as "the first bridge of the Yellow River in the world" and has a gray steel frame structure.
Standing on the bridge overlooking the Yellow River rolling eastward, I suddenly want to sigh with emotion! This is the Yellow River, which has nurtured Chinese civilization for thousands of years.
At one end of Zhongshan Bridge is Baita Mountain, named after the White Pagoda at the top of the mountain. You can see the White Pagoda in all directions in Lanzhou.
What Lanzhou can't erase for a day is the Yellow River and Lamian Noodles.
It's a pity, because it was Monday and the Gansu Provincial Museum was closed.
The third stop is Dunhuang.
Dunhuang has been too far away from me
In my imagination, it should be a classical and mysterious city.
Finally, I have a chance to walk into Dunhuang. .....
I came here from Lanzhou by train all night.
The first thing I saw was my long-lost deskmate, full of excitement and excitement.
Outside the railway station, in addition to taxis and buses, the endless Gobi Desert is filled with khaki desolation.
We called a taxi and went to Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, an art museum in the desert.
Cameras can't be taken into the Mogao Grottoes, only with eyes.
Murals and statues surround us in the cave.
The color of murals two thousand years ago is still very bright today.
The expressions of various statues are still vivid today.
Through the commentator's explanation
Let me see the various skills of the ancients digging holes.
I realized their good intentions in mural design and improved the visual effect of the space.
Let me know more about the history and allusions behind it.
I was deeply impressed by the artistic creativity of the ancients, and even more shocked by the 35-meter-high Buddha statue they excavated.
Although I am not a believer, I am in awe of it. ...
We only visited a few caves in the morning.
However, the Mogao Grottoes, also known as Thousand Cave Grottoes, can be imagined how much wisdom, sweat and brilliance are hidden behind them.
How can you read The Great Palace of Art all morning?
I went to Mingsha Mountain in the afternoon.
The first intimate contact with the desert was really exciting.
The undulating sand ridges in Sha Feng are like blades, which are very spectacular.
Take off your shoes and feel the softness and smoothness of the sand according to the joy you can't bear.
Although there is no camel riding and sand skiing, taking photos on foot in the desert is enough for us to have fun.
I was lucky enough to see the first spring in the desert-Crescent Spring.
Today's crescent spring has dried up, and many of them are unclear, and the blue waves are rippling, just like the softness of the new moon.
However, before this magical and beautiful spring disappeared, we were glad to see her charm.
In the evening, eat barbecue and drink apricot skin water in Shazhou market, and feel the coolness brought by Dunhuang in summer night.
Because of time, I didn't go to Yumenguan in Yangguan and Ya Dan in Gobi Desert.
I think if I have the chance, I will go to Dunhuang again and spend more time to experience the magnificence and charm behind the wind erosion traces.
Fourth stop Jiayuguan
Jiayuguan impression-very good.
Jiayuguan is a small city. Although it is not as busy as Shanghai, it is clean and refreshing.
In Jiayuguan, you can find a strange phenomenon. The bus can stop at any time without a stop sign, just like a taxi, and the traffic is very convenient.
Little is known about the history and culture of Jiayuguan except that there is an amazing starting point of the ancient Great Wall on this land.
So before sunset, we arrived at Jiayuguan, the first male pass in the world.
Jiayuguan Scenic Area is very beautiful.
Quiet Jiuqu Spring, majestic Guancheng, winding city walls.
In the distance are the snow-capped Qilian Mountains and the rolling Montenegro.
Standing on the city wall and looking around, there is a magnificent integration of heaven and earth.
Especially at sunset, everything becomes more magnificent.
I am ashamed that my language skills are limited and I can't vividly describe that glory.
Go to Jiayuguan rich and powerful market at night. This is the local snack street.
I had a barbecue with black stuffed skin here, and it was an unusual taste, which let us remember it so far.
Fifth stop Wuwei
Many people don't know Wuwei. Let me give you a brief introduction first.
The ancient "Silk Road" was the main traffic artery across the Asian continent in ancient times.
Hexi Corridor is the only way of the ancient Silk Road, starting from Wuwei in the east and reaching Dunhuang in the west.
Wuwei is the gateway of Hexi Corridor. Wuwei was called Liangzhou in ancient times.
I can't help thinking of Liangzhou Ci.
"Grape wine luminous cup, want to drink pipa immediately rush. Drunk in the battlefield, you don't laugh, and you have fought several wars in ancient times. " .....
It takes more than 6 hours by train from Jiayuguan to Wuwei-it feels like a backward city.
Because it's almost 6 o'clock here, I found a hotel to stay and went to Liangzhou market-snack street.
It is said that Wuwei snacks are the cheapest snacks in China.
We ate a bowl of japonica rice flour from 2 yuan,1.A sheep's hoof from 5 yuan and a bowl of fried fish from 5 yuan in Laosi, and went to CCTV.
I ate 25 Jin of donkey meat, 1 piece of lamb tripe and mutton barbecue in Du Jin.
There is a Leitai Park in Wuwei, and there is a Han tomb in Leitai. It is said that the bronze galloping horse "Treading Swallow" was unearthed here.
There is no need to spend 50 yuan to see this tomb. According to the janitor, all valuable cultural relics were sent to the Gansu Provincial Museum.
So after dinner, we came here to see the bronze galloping horse sculpture in the night.
The next day we went to Tiantai Mountain Grottoes, 60 kilometers away from Wuwei City.
I'm afraid many people don't know about Tiantai Mountain Grottoes. After all, it is not as famous as the Longmen Yungang Grottoes in Maiji Mountain.
In fact, the Tiantishan Grottoes are called the originator of China Grottoes, and it is said that they were founded in Beiliang during the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
The long-distance minivan made us bump all the way, surrounded by yellow barren hills.
Suddenly I saw a bright green lake surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the scenery was very beautiful.
The driver let us off here-in the middle of the highway in the barren hills.
Standing in the middle of the mountain road, we are fearless and all our attention is attracted by the beautiful scenery.
Blue sky, snow-white clouds, towering Qilian Mountain in the distance, and an emerald lake in front of you. ....
I believe that everyone can't help but be tempted and crazy by this lost landscape given by nature.
Follow a mountain road to another lakeside road. Walk along the road around the lake and you will reach the front of the grotto scenic spot.
There is only one Buddha statue with its back facing the mountains and seas. The "height" of 28 meters is shocking.
Then I came to the lake and touched the cold lake with my fingertips, and my heart was full of sacred feelings.
At noon, I ate 30 pieces 1 kg of hand-grabbed mutton here, which was delicious and pure.
After eating, I went back to the middle of the road and stopped a van because there was no bus.
We climbed into the car "savagely" like migrant workers, bumping but excited all the way.
The enthusiastic driver sent us to the town with a station, and we took a bus back to the city.
Go to Liangzhou market to eat sheep's hoof+barbecue in the evening.
With reluctance and nostalgia, my deskmate and I took the train back to Xi 'an.
