Beautiful trip to Qinghai (3)

I especially like the feeling of listening to music while driving. Unlike a big city like Beijing, there are always so many cars on the street that there is nowhere to release them. Driving in Qinghai, the road is straight, curved, flat, or ups and downs, which is too much like people walking all their lives. Walking, inexplicably want to cry. A road can sometimes move you. I look at the scenery outside the window from time to time. Everything is going backwards. The road ahead is so attractive to me that it guides me to go on.

17 At 9 o'clock in the morning of July, the three of us left Qilian County for the next stop, Qinghai Lake. Let's take provincial highway 204 first, and then transfer to provincial highway 3 10. Colored prayer flags and mani piles can be seen everywhere along the way. When we arrived at Dadongshu Pass, the altitude was 4120m, and many travelers stopped to enjoy and feel the plateau scenery. It's obviously the tuyere here, so I feel less dressed after getting off the bus for a while. Before coming to Qinghai, local friends reminded us to bring some autumn clothes. Some people want to add clothes at this time and find that the suitcase is in another car, but that car was later separated. Fortunately, the time is not long, otherwise it will really get cold. People are scrambling to take pictures in front of the four characters "4 120". Tibetans temporarily set up several tents to sell local specialties and handicrafts. A yak with pure white fur stood by, waiting for tourists to ride it as a souvenir, but not many people seemed to want to ride it. The yak stood there, almost motionless, as if it had experienced a severe cold. Just shaking his head occasionally, maybe he can't figure out a question, "I'm not as good as those numbers?"

I'm thinking a question, too. I saw many tents on the road, green, white, black and colorful. There are domes, rectangles, squares and hexagons. What do they care about? Blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and green waters can be seen everywhere. Unlike other places, everything here seems to be better. Blue should be thorough and white should be slender. The grass on the slope is soft and shiny; The water is winding and green as jade. There are herds or scattered yaks and goats crawling halfway up the mountain everywhere. Those herders live in tents of various colors. There must be a beautiful story in every tent.

Friend Erpang said that Tibetan tents can be divided into winter tents and summer tents. Winter tent woven by yak hair. First, a certain thickness of dark brown, black or white felt strips are woven, and then the tent is sewn according to the required size. This kind of tent varies in size and shape. Support with a shelf or column. The indoor clear height is about 1.6-2m. Tie the yak rope to the top of the tent and pile it around. There is a skylight at the top of the tent for ventilation, lighting and smoke exhaust, which can be sheltered in rainy days. Low walls are usually enclosed with turf or stones to keep out the cold. What is particularly interesting is that this yak tent is not afraid of rain at all. Soaked in the rain, the thin ox hair swells and is dense, so the rain can't get in. The weather is fine, the sun shines, the cow hair shrinks, the holes are dotted, and the wind blows in.

Erpang said that tents are much more convenient in summer. It is made of white cloth, canvas and Tibetan cloth, with squares and rectangles. Surrounded by dark, brown or blue edges. The tent is also decorated with exquisite auspicious eight treasures, Five Blessingg's birthday celebration, white clouds and lions, and six divisions in the wheel of karma. There is also a big tent that can accommodate hundreds of people.

Before our car passed Qilian Mountain Ranch and reached Jinyintan Grassland, someone on another off-road vehicle shouted, "We seem to be going the wrong way." It turns out that they are going to the west bank of Qinghai Lake. The second fat man in the same car smiled and said, "The scenery there is better. Enjoy the scenery slowly. Just run for dozens of kilometers. " Turning our heads, we smiled at each other, meaning "Let you run faster and get lost?"

On the Jinyintan grassland, we walked into atomic city 22 1 base, where China secretly developed nuclear weapons. The sign on the roadside reads "Original 22 1 Factory Detonation Test Site". Erpang said that many lambs here died before they died, and the survival rate was not high, which may be related to radiation. Erpang also said that the hills here are numbered, and there are no obvious buildings from the outside; In the past, the car went in and disappeared as soon as it opened. It has only been declassified and opened in recent years, and a red tourist base is being built. On the newly-built gate of the Great Wall, stands a missile model with the words "atomic city Explosion Test Site" written on it. Behind the gate is a long cement road that leads directly to the cave. As time was tight, we didn't buy a ticket. Looking at the beautiful scenery around me, I can't help but admire so many scientists who have dedicated their youth and wisdom to the nuclear bomb cause of the motherland in this desolate place. I told some stories to girls and children, especially to make her understand how important the atomic bomb was to our country at that time. A newly established country, poor and weak, needs such strong support. After listening, my daughter said, go home and buy me a book. I want to read it. Obviously, she was also moved by the present history.

Wang Erpang said that he used to live in a small village in front. He pointed at it conveniently. The king of Spanish songs, the king who wrote "In that faraway place". Yes, that's him. The beautiful girl in the songs he wrote in those years still lives dozens of miles away from here. The daughter asked who Wang was again. I said, go home and buy you his book. I think she will like Rainbow Robin who is as close to nature as I am. I sat in the car and couldn't help singing "In that faraway place" in the WeChat group. At this moment, I just want to share my excitement and happiness with my friends in the group and tell them that I will definitely come to Qinghai if I have the opportunity.

When we walked into the gate with the words "Qinghai Lake", we thought we would be at the entrance soon. As a result, the car drove for a long time. Along the way, local Tibetans stopped to provide a cheaper route to the lake. Actually, it's where his family lives by the lake. They can take it to the lake for 100 yuan per car. Some people even set up a stone on their own land, which read "Qinghai Lake" for tourists to take pictures. If you have the chance to come again, you can try it and save a lot of money on tickets.

Qinghai Lake is also called Ku Counord, which means "blue sea" in Mongolian. It is located in the Qinghai Lake Basin in the northeast of Qinghai Province, which is not only the largest inland lake in China, but also the largest saltwater lake in China. It is formed by the fault subsidence between Datong Mountain, Sun Moon Mountain and Nanshan Mountain in Qinghai.

Erpang said that there are many places to play in Qinghai Lake, besides the lake area, there are Bird Island, Haixinshan, Sand Island, Sankuai Stone and Erlang Sword. July and August are the best time to visit Qinghai Lake every year.

Rape flowers in Huang Cancan are scattered along the lake. The lake looks calm and blue, the white clouds in the distance are like blue diluted with a palette, and the sky becomes lighter blue.

Stay in the scenic spot, walk for about one kilometer, then buy a ticket and take a battery car to the lake. In order to keep tourists on the lake, a yellow wooden plank road was built and extended into the lake. On the left hand side of the plank road, there is a huge stone with the birth of Buddha Sakyamuni stepping on the lotus and the nirvana statue lying next to him at last. Then came a bowl-covered pagoda of Tibetan Buddhism and a large Manidui. Some people circle around these newly-built shapes, while others bow in front. Go further and you will come to Little Square. On the left is the pier, where you can buy tickets and take a boat. You can feel the excitement on the lake by taking an assault boat. On the right is a large cruise ship, which can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Qinghai Lake from a higher angle. I stood by the lake and took many photos of my daughter. In my opinion, when you come to Qinghai Lake, all you need to do is to open your eyes wide and bring all this into your mind with your eyes that discover and appreciate beauty, and slowly enjoy it. Standing in the lake is actually the same as standing by the lake, and the admiration for Qinghai Lake has been slowly accumulating when we came in along the highway around the lake. Now it is about to erupt and I want to shout "It's so beautiful." Afraid of disturbing a pair of stray wild ducks not far away. I picked up the camera again and put the wild duck in my daughter's photo. Presumably, even wild ducks don't want to leave the lake, naturally forgetting that so many tourists are not far away.

We came to Qinghai Lake in July, which is the most beautiful season of the year. The weather is particularly good, and the sun sets late, which also gives us greedy tourists another chance to go to Chaka Salt Lake.

We walked along the 109 national highway, passed through Heimahe Township and crossed Rubber Mountain, with an altitude of 38 17 meters. There was no altitude sickness when I got to the top of the mountain, mainly because I drove very fast, unlike when I was standing there, I felt a little deep breath. Along the way, herds of yaks and goats dotted the grassland, and at the end of the grassland was a long green mountain range, as if the grassland had turned into rolling waves.

Because our two off-road vehicles delayed the time on the road, the Kauste van arrived at Chaka Salt Lake before us. When we entered the scenic spot, we met people who had been playing for two hours on the bus in Kauste. They were going to leave for Wulan County and stayed there.

Chaka Salt Lake is a famous natural crystalline salt lake in Qaidam Basin. It used to be an important salt-producing area in China, but now it is mainly opened as a tourist attraction, and its income may be much higher than that of salt production. Entering the scenic spot, the happiest thing is the children. It is said that the salt here is edible and can be taken away in bottles. Girls, children and nothing drank all the mineral water in their hands and looked for empty bottles everywhere. Soon, everyone had four or five empty plastic bottles in their arms.

Many vendors take out plastic shoe covers in scenic spots. I also bought a dozen pairs for everyone and filled them with a big plastic bag. When I checked in, the staff looked at my ticket-free certificate, and then looked at the plastic shoe cover with a big bag in my hand and said, "Needless to say, tickets are free, and there are shoe covers to be sold inside?" I was so angry and funny that I said it was for my friends. The two ticket inspectors smiled suspiciously, which means that you have seen so many people. I walked in without looking back, thinking that I looked like a peddler selling shoe covers?

Not far away, several female tourists gathered around and asked how much a pair of shoe covers cost. I was a little angry and sold two pairs at the original price. Didn't you say I sell shoe covers? I sold it. what can I do?

We walked along the small train track for about three or four kilometers. The road ahead is still long, and I don't want to go any further. Daughter and nothing put on their shoes and stepped on the salt pond to play. Someone nearby reminded me not to step on the dark place, because I might get stuck in it. Many small black holes in the lake are actually traps. Don't step on them, the darker the more dangerous it is. The salt lake in the distance is like a mirror, reflecting the sky, figures and mountains. No wonder it is also called "the mirror of the sky".

The sun looked high just now, but it will set soon. I quickly picked up the camera and photographed the reflected sunset on the lake, like an entrance to the future opened by the universe. The afterglow of the sun shines on the face, as if painted with the color of the sun, which looks different. There are many photographers with long guns and short gun racks in different positions, and some people continue to walk inside in cotton-padded clothes. It is said that they came to shoot the starry sky all night.

Winter and winter really caught salt. She stood in the salt water and bent down to pour salt water into the bottle. Then pour the water out with a slight tilt, and the salt in the bottle will gradually fill up. She also gently scooped some water with her hand and licked it, saying it was salty. I was very happy, so I put away the camera, put on the shoe cover and helped her with the salt. There are many people who go further afield, some fishing for salt, and some posing for photos.

We had a good time and broke up soon. Later, I found that nothing had disappeared. When I found him later, he had gone a long way with Exodus.

When we arrived at Jinzihaihu Hotel in Wulan County, it was eleven o'clock at night, and we drove for more than 6 10 kilometers all day. Go to sleep quickly, there are more beautiful scenery waiting for us tomorrow.
