A trip to Qinghai-Tibet-to be a golden mountain

In ancient times when camel bells rang, Jinshan was once an important mountain pass where the Silk Road must pass through Qinghai-Tibet. Because the northern route of the Silk Road has been blocked countless times in history, and Jinshan, as the main gateway of the Silk Road on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, has also been used as an auxiliary channel for countless times, closely linking the mainland and the western regions. When Jinshan is located at the junction of Gansu, Qinghai and Xinjiang provinces, the map of yan dan in Aksai County of Gansu Province borders Subei in the east, Dunhuang in the north, Saishiteng Mountain and Qinghai in the south and Gobi Desert in Xinjiang in the west. Crossing the Dangjinshankou at an altitude of 3,800 meters, even if it really entered the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

When tourists visit Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring, they don't seem to understand that Jinshan is still alone guarding the glacier supply line in the upper reaches of the Three Rivers and curbing the raging dust in Kumutage. Despite the cold wind in Jinshan, it is still full of spring. The snow on the top of the mountain, the broken rock mass in the mountain, and the cold wind screaming make the mountain road nearly 20 kilometers no longer lonely. Who will pay attention to the golden light at the waist of the mountain? When Jinshan is just a background for people to bid farewell to Gansu!

When the Jinshan valley is V-shaped, the slopes on both sides of the valley are mostly between 30 degrees and 60 degrees, with the north slope steep and the south slope relatively gentle. It is the intersection of the eastern end of Qilian Mountain and the western end of Altun Mountain. In the valley area formed by faults, the elevation of the valley bottom is mostly between 2800 meters and 3600 meters. Walking in the mountains, the morning sun was blocked by the mountains. For a while, I saw the mountains halfway up the mountain covered with golden splendor, and then I walked around, as if I had entered the valley of twilight.

At the Dangjin Mountain Pass at an altitude of 3,648 meters, there are endless alpine meadows on both sides of the pass, and sheep, camels and horses are scattered in Shan Ye. Looking from a distance, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau gradually appeared in the fundus, with snow-capped mountains, blue sky, white clouds and colorful plateaus, just like a fairyland on earth.

The Qinghai-Tibet line crossing Dangjinshankou, like a person I know, keeps showing me the charm of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Although this route is drowsy, the large-scale landscape of low hills, sparse weeds, bare land and broken rocks in Jinshan is not just passing by, but winding. It seems to be telling me the story of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Only those who have walked through the Golden Mountain can say that I have been to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the roof of the world. Because you reached the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau through the eastern monsoon region and the arid northwest region, it can be said that when you entered the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau through Jinshan, you traveled all over China.

Half the moon is already in the sky, but the sun still doesn't want to go west. It is a great comfort for me to be in Jinshankou. When I met Jinshankou, the mountains, all kinds of clouds, blue sky and desert were constantly changing, and the sunset was on Jinshan. ...
