Weather in Angren County, Shigatse

Everything in the world should probably be done first, and tourism is no exception. Now, let's take Mount Everest, a world-famous scenic spot. Since 20 19 officially announced the indefinite closure of the core scenic spot of Mount Everest, whether you have money or not, it is difficult for you to reach the old address of Mount Everest base camp, the 5200m stone tablet. The idea of closing the core scenic spot of Mount Qomolangma indefinitely does not mean that it will have a great impact on your distant view of Mount Qomolangma, but it means that you will never reach your old base camp again. Although it is only a few kilometers away, the meaning is really different.

I just bought a new car two years ago, and when the odometer was less than 7000 kilometers, I met the announcement that an outdoor group was going to road trip, Tibet, and I signed up for this activity on impulse. At that time, I regretted that the new car had not been fully run-in after running so far. Now that I think about it, I am lucky to be able to reach a place that I can't reach now. So I want to write down the original scene so that people who go now can have a comparison and reference.

We entered from the Yunnan-Tibet line in April and left from the Qinghai-Tibet line. It is best to go to Tibet in March, April and May, with fewer tourists, so that you can fully appreciate the weather in Tibet all year round and save some money. For example, the peach blossoms in Linzhi must go in March, and the flowers basically fade in early April. If you go in the peak season, the cost will double. Because time is tight, our two cars basically run 500 kilometers every day. In fact, it's quite tiring to drive by car if the schedule is tight. Many small scenic spots are basically cursory, such as Huangguoshu. Compared with the scenery in Tibet, we still take a picture. The motherland is full of beautiful scenery. If you want to taste it, you really have to travel slowly.

A place like Tibet is believed to be a place that many people dream of going all their lives, so they must go while they are young. If they are 60 years old, I estimate that the risk will be much greater. I have such friends around me, who are addicted to going to Tibet. Some of them actually want to go after seven or eight trips. They say that the blue sky and white clouds in Tibet are the driving force for them to go on again and again.

We spent the night in Angren County, Tibet. At that time, Angren County was also engaged in development and construction. Angren is about 500 kilometers from Everest base camp. According to the arrangement of the tour leader, we got up early that day and went to the north gate of Mount Everest to buy tickets. We also buy tickets according to the number of people and vehicles, but it is much cheaper in the off-season. It is about120km from the north gate of Mount Everest to the then base camp of Mount Everest. A few kilometers into the north gate is the monument of Mount Everest National Park, which is very atmospheric and fascinating.

It is said that there are 108 bends from here to Everest Base Camp, which is more than the 72 bends I passed through the Nujiang River. Of course, the altitude is much higher than that, but the concrete pavement had been repaired when we went there. Come to Gaoura Pass, which is the best place to see Mount Everest all the way. You can see Mount Everest clearly in the distance. Local Tibetans often sell some Tibetan ornaments here. This is the handsome young Tibetan guy we met. When he saw us stop, he asked me what he wanted. Spike. Tianzhu? When we said no, he pestered me to exchange the spike he wore with me for this Li Ning brand down jacket. He said that the guarantee he was wearing was a real spike, which would bring me good luck. I said it would be very cold if I went to Everest. At that time, he gave me 1, 800 yuan. In the end, I think 400 yuan made a deal for his sincere and kind face. And take a group photo happily. I bought a real nail ornament with a little silver for 400 yuan. I thought it was ok at that time, but when I took it home, my son in elementary school was playing with this spike, which cracked and was actually made of plastic. Therefore, in Tibet, it is best not to buy Tibetan ornaments under unknown circumstances. Those who sell jewelry and gifts are all skilled. I was cheated if I didn't get it

At that time, after we entered from the north gate of Mount Everest, we passed a border checkpoint, driving license, driver's license, and all the border guards who followed the car. Everyone had to get off for inspection. Going in again, the mountain road is eighteen bends, and you can often see many wild animals, Tibetan antelopes, Tibetan antelopes and wild donkeys. Sometimes those Tibetan antelopes are not afraid of people and cars, which leads me to stop and run a few laps to catch up with those cute elves with white spots on their backs. I really want to have a close contact with them, but I will never catch up with these guys.

Then pass through Rongbu Temple. Rongbu Temple (also known as Lomb Temple), the full name of which is "Laduicha Rongbu East Akerlin Temple", belongs to Ma Ning School in Tibet and is a mixed temple with local characteristics. Located in the south of Basong Township, Dingri County, Shigatse Prefecture, Tibet, on the top of the "Zhuo Ma" (Damu) on the east and west sides of the Xiarongronggou of Mount Everest, it is 90 kilometers away from the county seat and about 5 100 meters above sea level. It is the highest temple in the world, with high and cold terrain, so the landscape is wonderful. We got off the bus and took a brief look at the highest temple in the world. After all, we are tired of seeing these temples in Lhasa, and our hearts have flown to Everest base camp.

Here is a popular science for everyone. Everest Base Camp: refers to live zone, which is set in the viewing environment in the core area of Everest. There are two in China. Xipo Base Camp is located in Zhaxizong Township, Dingri County, Shigatse Prefecture, Xizang Autonomous Region, and Dongpo Base Camp is located in Gamagou District, Qudang Township, Dingri County, with an altitude of 5,200m and a linear distance of about19km from the summit of Mount Everest. This is a national AAAAA tourist area. Nepal also has its base camp. There are many chain tents for climbers and tourists in Gamagou, as well as hotels, cafes, shops and even post offices, but I believe the sanitary conditions there are still unsatisfactory.

At that time, our car could stop 50 meters away from the base camp of Mount Everest where many colorful tents were stationed, and then walk for a few minutes to this 5200 boundary pillar. At that time, I felt that there were a lot of yaks there, and of course there was a lot of yak shit. Don't underestimate the distance of tens of meters from the bus to the boundary pillar. Because of the high altitude, I feel breathless under a little exercise. Besides, the boundary pillar is just on the tuyere, and the cold wind is particularly strong. When you blow into your face, it will make it difficult for you to breathe. Even standing in front of the boundary pillar is particularly laborious.

It depends on your luck to see Mount Everest not far from the boundary pillar. Sometimes it's sunny, sometimes it's white and foggy. The climate of Mount Everest is changeable, and it's flickering at any time. Because I didn't adapt to it when I first arrived, I stayed at the base camp for about 2 hours and couldn't wait to leave, because I was out of breath and had a terrible headache. After driving, they were unwilling. Apart from taking pictures, we didn't bring any souvenirs back. Everyone stopped to pick up the stones of Mount Everest in the stream next to the base camp. This stream is formed by the melting of ice and snow on Mount Everest. There are many grotesque stones in it, but there are many small leeches under many stones. It is strange that there are so many leeches in such a cold place. We have to pick up these Everest stones carefully, and everyone took several pieces home!
