Before going there, I knew almost nothing about Mugecuo, and I was not even familiar with the name Mugecuo. I believe that all unknown mountains and rivers are covered with a mysterious veil. Because of the unknown, there will be accidental encounters and overwhelmed surprises; because of the unknown, it will stimulate the numb nerves and stimulate my desire to explore; because of the unknown, I can not fall into the stereotypes and use my knowledge See it with your eyes and understand it with your thinking... Therefore, I am a person who doesn't like to do guides when I go out. Of course, it's also because of laziness. As long as a friend invites me, I usually just leave. I just look at the scenery and take pictures of the scenery with my heart. When I come back, I will read the guide and write the travel notes with my own perception.

To go to Mugecuo, although self-driving can be arranged flexibly, you still have to get there early, buy tickets and queue up until you get on a special bus for the scenic spot and drive 18 kilometers up to the destination.

Out of the car window, the sky was not clear and the scenery was nothing special, except that there were forests all over the mountains and fields, and everything was green as far as the eye could see. The higher you go to the mountains, the more you feel the coolness in your heart without the heat of midsummer.

The cars going up almost never stop. After an unknown amount of time, we finally reached the top of the mountain.

As soon as I got off the car, I saw a cold lake, so quiet and beautiful. I didn't expect that there would be such a big lake at such a high place. It was clear and clean, with gentle waves, but it was dark and bottomless. I was filled with joy, looking around on the observation deck and taking various sexy photos with my companions. The only drawback is that the sky is full of dark clouds. Of course, it's not all dark clouds. Behind the gray-white dark clouds, there is still a little bit of blue sky, as if they are hiding shyly. The lake lacks foil and bright colors. If there were some blue sky and white clouds, the scenery here would be so beautiful and moving!

Of course, it’s up to me to travel, and the scenery depends on the sky. Regrets are common, so don’t be disappointed. Everyone has their own beauty. I’m the best at self-comfort.

I looked around and saw that this lake was really big. It was shaped like a super big-bellied gourd. The lake was wide open in the near distance, constricted into a gourd mouth in the distance, and mysteriously disappeared among the distant mountains. The lake is surrounded by low mountains. On the left mountain are small alpine cedar trees. There are traces of wildfire spread and burnt. It is a large black area, which matches the scenery of today's lake and mountains. There is not much vegetation or even trees on the right mountain. , or scattered shallow grass, or exposed soil and rocks, and the slopes have Tibetan patterns painted on the ground (the same style patterns are often seen in other places). I don’t know whether it’s because the terrain is too high or for some other reason (extreme cold or minerals). There are very few original alpine trees, and there are no alpine meadows with wildflowers in full bloom.

After seeing this lake, we plan to leave. At this moment, the sky above our heads suddenly lit up. We looked up and saw the bright blue sky covered with white clouds. The pure blue sky and pure white clouds were fresh and dazzling. We were instantly amazed!

Looking at the lake again, it turned into a little fairy as if by magic. Our eyes were full of blue sky and white clouds: blue sky and white clouds were floating in the sky, blue sky and white clouds were reflected in the lake, and the blue sky and white clouds were beautiful in our hearts. Lovely Mugecuo, we can actually meet such a beautiful side of you, thank God! Now, I finally understand the uniqueness of Mugecuo: four seasons in one day, different days in the morning and evening!

I’m so lucky to meet such a beautiful Mugecuo! No wonder the life-and-death couple Tashi and Dolma came to the lake and thought it was a dream and didn't believe what they saw. Tashi even asked Dolma to hit him hard. He felt the pain, and then he knew it was real and believed it. There is such a beautiful place in the world, so they settled here and lived a happy and happy life like savages (eating wild fruits and wearing animal skins). Therefore, "Mugecuo" is also called "Sea of ??Savages" and has become a symbol of loyal love. It is said that later on, many lovers from all over the world often went to the lake to pledge their love to each other, letting the holy lake water and auspicious snow-capped mountains witness their love.

I’m so lucky to meet such a beautiful Mugecuo! So, we quickly took out our hidden cameras and mobile phones and started reshooting in the same scene... Although this trip did not reach our ultimate destination - Daocheng Yading, we met such a beautiful Mugecuo, which can be regarded as Fortunately!

Of course, the beauty of Mugecuo is not limited to this. The gurgling mountain stream all the way down is also quite stunning!

Attached information and beautiful legends:

(1) About Mugecuo: Mugecuo (Tibetan name), formerly known as Yerenhai, also known as Dahaizi. Located deep in the Gongga Mountains, it is the core attraction within the Kangding Love Song (Mugecuo) Scenic Area. It is the largest alpine lake in northwest Sichuan. The water quality is clear and the visibility is close to 10 meters. The melted water from the snow mountains is its main water source.

Mugecuo is surrounded by mountains, forest meadows, and dozens of seas of different sizes such as the Red Sea, White Sea, and Black Sea, just like stars holding the moon.

Mugecuo has four seasons of scenery in a day, with different days in the morning and evening. In the early morning, fog locks the sea surface, and silver dragon-like clouds roll over the water, creating a moving scene of "double fog falling into the sea". When the morning sun hits the sea, the waves are sparkling and the reflections of the lake are ever-changing and dazzling. When the breeze blows in the afternoon, "windless three-foot waves roll up thousands of piles of snow" on the sea. Standing on the beach by the lake and looking into the distance, it feels like you have arrived at the end of the world.

When the sun sets in the west, the afterglow spreads over the sea, and it becomes a golden color, and the water and sky are the same color.

(2) About the legend of Yerenhai:

According to legend, a long time ago, there lived a young man and woman in Tagong Grassland. The man was called Tashi and the woman was called Zhuoma. Tashi is handsome and tough, good at riding and shooting; girl Zhuoma is as beautiful as a jade, gentle and kind.

This beautiful couple, one in a million, has cared about and helped each other during years of hard work. Love has already taken root and blossomed in their hearts.

As soon as the lustful tribal leader saw the figure of the girl Dolma, his whole body became hot and his words were incoherent. He wanted to take the girl Dolma as his own all day long. The leader has a daughter who is as old as Dolma. She is kind-hearted and is friends with Dolma.

On this day, the leader asked his most caring friend to discuss how to possess Dolma. Unfortunately, his daughter outside the tent heard it. The leader's daughter was shocked and hurried to tell Dolma.

When Miss Zhuoma heard this, she burst into tears. In those days, the sky belonged to the leader, the earth belonged to the leader, and the baby belonged to the leader. Who could get what the leader wanted? Do you dare to stop it?

With no choice but to take Dolma with him, Tashi fled. Where to escape? I didn't dare to walk on the main road, so I had no choice but to choose the roadless mountains.

They climbed one mountain after another, crossed one river after another, no one could remember how many days they had walked, and no one could remember how many miles they had traveled.

On this day they crossed another mountain ridge, and suddenly their eyes lit up, as if they had entered a dreamland. Not only was there a vast sea, but it was also surrounded by forests, with towering old trees and azaleas in full bloom. There are endless sounds of birds in the forest, and strings of fish swimming in the sea.

Tashi and Dolma were stunned. Is this true? Tashi asked Dolma to hit him hard and he felt the pain. They believed that there was such a beautiful place in the world, so they decided to settle here.

Every day when Tashi goes hunting, Dolma sews clothes from animal skins at home. Although they ate wild fruits and wore animal skins, their loyal love and beautiful environment made them feel satisfied. They gave birth to children here and lived a happy and fulfilling life.

Their whereabouts were discovered by people who went up the mountain to hunt, and they mistakenly thought they were savages, so word spread after they came down from the mountain. Since then, this sea has been called the "Savage Sea" (called "Muge" in Tibetan). Measures"). Mugecuo is a symbol of loyal love. Therefore, many couples from all over the world often come to the lake to pledge their love to each other, letting the holy lake water and auspicious snow-capped mountains witness their love.

In late October, I went on a business trip to Liangshan and Ganzi prefectures, and the furthest I went was Mianning and Jiulong counties. Local friends told us that when we return to Beijing, we can go north to Kangding and return to Beijing via Chengdu, which is better than going south to Xichang and then back to Beijing. But one of my colleagues was going to Kunming, so we finally chose the route via Xichang to Kunming and back to Beijing. Although I couldn't go to Kangding, I read your travel notes and took the opportunity to visit. Unfortunately, you took too few photos of Kangding.

We arrived in Kangding at night, and we were in the new city, so we could take pictures Not much. There is not much to see in the city of Kangding. The main reason is that Kangding has many scenic spots.
