I want to go to the sacred place of the sun at the foot of the snow-capped mountains

I

want to go to the lotus holy place of Guanyin Bodhisattva

Taste the six-character proverb with your heart

In

the most beautiful golden autumn season

,

we look back in the alpine meadow

Looking at the depths of the ancient alley

Daocheng Aden

Children who live deep in the mountains always yearn for the blue sea.

Just like children who grow up by the sea, they always want to appreciate the majesty at the foot of the snow-capped mountains.

It only takes less than three hours to fly from Guangzhou to Shangri-La, where we agreed to meet, but I believe that their hearts flew to this snowy plateau a long time ago.

Meili Snow Mountain Meili Snow Mountain

Departed from Chengdu overnight, took a short break in Daocheng for the night, and came to Shangri-La at the agreed time.

In this land that I am no longer familiar with, every time I see the brand new ancient city of Dukezong, I can't help but feel sorry, recalling a fire that year, forcing plastic surgery for this originally beautiful ancient city, and now the appearance, although I have been here countless times, I always feel that I don't know each other very well.

If I had to go to Kawagbo from here, maybe I really didn't really want to go to Shangri-La.

Speaking of Kawagbo, I have told the story of what happened here to my friends countless times, and tried to bury the story of Tibetan Buddhism in everyone's heart.

Coming here, in fact, it has nothing to do with the scenery, but more about your heart, see if it is as calm as water, no matter what the weather is, serve a small bench, sit facing the sacred mountain, drink a cup of weak tea, and watch the clouds and clouds.

It is often said that the scenery is on the road, and among the many roads from Sichuan to Yunnan, I love this one.

Driving in such autumn colors, looking at the scenery outside the window, humming a little song is definitely an extremely pleasant thing.

Whether it is a winding mountain road or a hanging wall along the river; Whether it is the gold outside the window or the red of the rock wall;

The thrill of entering Yunnan along the river is known only to those who have been there.

Unbelief?

Next time you come with me, try it."

Daocheng Aden, known as the last pure land on the blue planet, is also known as the last Shangri-La.

The story here can be said about Locke, but also about Hilton, so to speak, so to speak, the whole day.

And what makes many friends come here, in addition to the three main sacred mountains and beautiful autumn scenery here, is more because of the fire of the movie "Passing by Your World".

However, for me, Aden is by no means as simple as an Internet celebrity checking in.

Daocheng Aden Daocheng Aden Inagi Aden Ganzi Daocheng Aden Scenic Area - Xian Nai Ri

Aden Scenic Area is divided into two routes: short-term and long-term, usually we will arrange two to play in the scenic spot, In order to fully adapt to the plateau, we often arrange short-term lines on the first day.

After about an hour's ride by sightseeing bus from the gate of the scenic spot and about 40 kilometers of mountain roads, we came to today's starting point - Chonggu Meadow.

After piling up the mani pile at Chonggu Temple, it only takes about 1.5 kilometers from the bottom to the top of the metal plank road, and the Xiannai Ri Sacred Mountain, which represents the Bodhisattva of Movie Viewing, can come to the lake of Dolma Latso.

Dolmalacuo is also known as the Pearl Sea, because if there is a slight breeze on a sunny day, the lake surface can always be stirred up ripples. Reflecting the waves of the Xiannai Ri Sacred Mountain, it looked like a knocked down pearl plate, one by one stained on the lake.

When I was by the lake, I was thinking about it, and I had forgotten that this was the first time I had come to the pure land of Aden, and of course, I forgot that this was the first time I had walked with my friends on the road.

However, I clearly remember every smiling face I have accompanied, and of course, I hope you will still be smiling when you think of me.

Although I have always thought that every place, in different seasons, will always show different beauty.

But I have to admit that the autumn colors in Aden do have different scenery from other seasons.

The golden woods, blue sky, white snow-capped mountains, and green lakes, combined with me who was tanned, were really colorful black.

And flying drones to look at all this from God's perspective, I believe that God will also be moved by it.

Inagi Aden-Xiano Dorgy

Feeding our greedy eyes with the beautiful scenery, we began to withdraw from the mountains, and when we retreated to Chonggu Meadow, the friends temporarily decided to observe the sunset of the Rizhao Golden Mountain (in fact, except for me, we all withdrew in advance, because of the cold air in the snow-capped mountains, it is unimaginable for friends who have not been there).

I haven't been out of the scenic spot in the dark for a long time, just to wait for the last charming light and shadow between the three main sacred mountains.

The aforementioned Three Lord Sacred Mountains are the collective name of the three sacred mountains of Aden, and they are also the incarnations of the three Bodhisattvas, from top to bottom, respectively the Yangmai Yong Sacred Mountain (Manjushri Bodhisattva), which represents wisdom, the Xiannai Ri (Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva), which represents compassion, and the Shano Dorjee (Vajra Hand Bodhisattva), which represents strength.

There are also one temple and two lakes worth visiting in the scenic area, namely Chonggu Temple, Milk Sea and Wushi Sea, Chonggu Temple is relatively the lowest altitude, followed by Milk Sea, and Wusei Sea is the highest.

Some people evaluate the trip in Aden as a trip with the eyes in heaven and the body in hell, please read on to see what happened.

Yang Maiyong Sea of Milk Milk Sea Milk Sea

When we come to Aden, we rarely arrange Aden Village at an altitude of 4,000 in the scenic area as a short-term overnight accommodation. Because the higher altitude will make it difficult for most people to sleep well at night, and the relatively limited conditions in Aden Village will also affect sleep.

As we walk all year round, we are well aware of the great power of the Aden Long Line, so we are often willing to bear the cost of the sightseeing bus to re-enter the scenic spot, and we will also arrange for everyone to stay in Shangri-La Town at a lower altitude and with better conditions.

Daocheng Aden Five-Colored Sea

Starting from the Luorong Cattle Farm at the drop-off point of the battery car, it is about five kilometers on one side to the five-color sea, with a vertical drop of about 500 meters above sea level.

On the plateau where it was originally difficult to walk, walking forward has become a very hard job, and the weather on the plateau is changeable, and many friends actually come here in the rain and muddy roads, so a trip to the original fairyland naturally has the saying that the body is in hell.

However, if you are lucky enough to encounter a good weather like ours, please believe me, this is definitely one of the most beautiful scenery you will see in your life.

Because you have to believe that the most beautiful scenery is at the other end of the bumpy road, and when you walk parallel to the sacred mountain, you will understand what I mean.

Daocheng Aden Milk Sea Sea of Milk The sea of colors Daocheng Aden

After nearly 4 hours of playing and swinging, leaving us sweating and countless laughter on the way, we finally boarded the sea of milk After a short rest, he went to the five-colored sea to leave his footprints.

Start climbing the mountain from Luorong Cattle Farm, rise about 500 meters high, pass a bush of prayer flags, turn over a large lawn, you can see the blue milk sea lying quietly under the glacier of Yangmai Yong Snow Peak, the lake is a white sandy beach, the scenery is so psychedelic, so intoxicating.

Milk Sea, Tibetan called "hot mistake" and "Russian Rongcuo", an ancient glacial lake, shaped like a water droplet, covers an area of 0.5 hectares, surrounded by snow-capped mountains, and the lake water is clear and blue. There is a large glacier above, and legend has it that the Milk Sea is a sacred lake that can cure deaf and mute diseases.

Standing here and returning to the road, you will be amazed by the magnificent scenery that unfolds in your vision.

Standing here and looking back at the three sacred mountains, close at hand, the gravel that does not grow an inch of grass is everywhere, and the clouds and mist of the three snow-capped mountains are rising, desolate like another planet.

"Western Sichuan - the beautiful scenery you can't miss" Some people say that the mystery of Tibet is actually just too beautiful

Huiyuan Temple Tagong Prairie Respect the white tower Huiyuan Temple

For some friends who rarely enter Tibet, they always feel that the Tibetan area is mysterious, because there is a mysterious culture and mysterious beliefs here. and many seemingly mysterious people.

Mystery comes from not understanding, people feel mysterious about many things they don't understand, and they are easy to be full of yearning.

But if there is an opportunity for you to go deeper, even deeper than deeper, you will understand that such a mystery comes from its beauty.

Fairyland-like scenery, long-standing culture, simple faith, and human hearts as transparent as water.

In the western Sichuan Plateau, not far from Chengdu, there is a small town called Xinduqiao.

There is a unique autumn color here, known as the "photographer's paradise", and every golden autumn, the number of roadsides will be dyed gold, shining under the direct sunlight of the west.

Not far away, at Huiyuan Temple, the yellow bricks and red walls are still narrating the past of the life of the Seventh Dalai Lama, the sun shines on our faces through the shade of the trees, and we sit here, yearning for poetry and distance.

And in that land known as an exotic planet, there was also the sound of King Gesar's golden iron horse fighting on the battlefield, which was proud and shocking.

Walking through the inkstone canyon lined with black stones, we began to reminisce about the entire trip and imagine that our next time would be in the distance.

Actually, there's so much more to say about this trip, but due to time and space constraints, I don't want to write it too long.

If you have a wish, we will always meet on the road.

Or Qinghai, or Xinjiang, or this magical highway called 318, or wherever you want, I can do it.

If I have the opportunity, I will carry my camera like this and walk with you, to see every inch of unforgettable light and shadow, to find every beautiful scenery, we go to find a place, be a local for two days to experience the most authentic humanities, or take off all defenses, to find the truest self, for these, I have always been happy to do so.

Okay, I'm Lao Fu, the mountains and rivers have met, and I'm waiting for the next unexpected encounter.
