Live Your Best Lives
In 2022, if the work is not going well and you decide to resign, then make good use of the time to resign and take a good look at the outside world. I hurriedly decided to go to Sichuan and Tibet and go to the sacred place in my heart. Choose a travel agency online, buy a ticket, prepare in a hurry, and wait for departure. But before departure, there were many accidents, the purchased air tickets were refunded, and the epidemic in Chengdu was even more serious, which couldn't help but make me retreat a little. After confirming that I could travel, I resolutely bought the high-speed rail from Shenzhen to Chengdu and set off as scheduled.
The next day, after contacting the team leader, I picked up two lovely peers, a little sister who had just graduated from college, and a big sister who was 85 years old. Although everyone is from all over the world, when they opened the door, after exchanging each other's identity information, they began to get acquainted, laughter and laughter along the way, mutual trust and mutual help, resolved everyone's embarrassment from all over the world, and moved forward.
Everyone's itinerary is determined, and the destination is Lhasa. On the first day of the journey, we arrived in Ya'an and galloped along the Dadu River. The Dadu River, which crosses the Luding Bridge, has a turbulent river, and understands the hardships of the Red Army forcibly crossing the Dadu River. A Dadu River piled up with the corpses of the Red Army led us to the ancient town of Moses and stayed overnight at the foot of the Hailuogou Glacier. Moses Ancient Town, a town developed entirely because of the Hailuogou Scenic Area, most of the buildings have just been built, with catering and accommodation as the main format.
The next day, I entered the Hailuogou Scenic Area with my friends to visit the king of Shushan, Gongga Snow Mountain. For the first time, I felt the cold air of the glacier, and I also felt the awe of life in the primeval forest. After entering the scenic spot, you must take the scenic shuttle bus to the main attractions. The winding roads and pristine forests all made me feel that my appearance was an offense to nature. The clean blue sky and white clouds were around the snow-capped mountains, like the fairy aura exhaled by the snow-capped mountains, making the appearance of the snow-capped mountains looming. The snow water flowing down from the snow-capped mountains roars in the mountains, and despite the scorching sun, they still feel the breeze. This is a gift from nature to people. In the afternoon, walk to the red stone beach of Yanzigou and feel that although life is small, it can still be spectacular. Thousands of red stones are piled up in river valleys, streams, and mountains, and if Hailuogou is a song, then the red stone is the note, and the two together compose a beautiful song. And that touch of red, with the streams in the mountains, the firs towering in the valley, the green mountains and green waters, constitute a beautiful landscape picture that is beautiful in the world. There is a very vital primitive algae growing on the red stone, which has extremely high requirements for the living environment, once it leaves Hailuogou, the red stone will turn black, which shows that the environment of Hailuogou is very good.
Along the mountain road, we climbed all the way up, and the winding road trip began.When you reach the top of the mountain, the clouds are shrouded in mist and the weather is gloomy. The temperature also began to slowly decrease. We can feel the wind here, as if it is too lonely, and we want to take away all the people and things that pass here. Passing by the slippery city of Kangding, the hometown of love songs, the Kangding River is turbulent and rolling downstream. Crossing the first pass of Kangba, the lonely Kangding Airport on the top of the mountain is said to have only one flight to Chengdu every day. We came to the photography paradise of Xindu Bridge, and the cold weather forced us into the hotel and went to bed early.
On the third day, before we had time to see the appearance of Xindu Bridge, we set off from Xindu Bridge again. Travel is like this, all locations are passing by, even if they are destinations, they are temporary. This small city will probably only appear in our memory in the form of a name. The weather was terrible today, and it was drizzling rain as soon as I went out. Originally planned to gallop on the grassland, everyone put on their skirts, but as a result, they shivered all the way. Even, there was a small accident, and our team leader's health code turned yellow, making our journey more intriguing. Although the weather is bad along the way, there will always be a lot of cyclists on the road. Highway 318 is a challenge for many self-drivers, not to mention bicycles. Maybe before I crossed this mountain, it was already dark. They had to plan supplies along the way every day. At noon, I came to Ding Zhen's hometown, Litang, known as the city in the sky. Like Xindu Bridge, because of the weather, it has only become a symbol in our memory. After lunch and nucleic acid, we continued to set off for Shangri-La Town, Daocheng County. And our team leader continued to quarantine in Sky City because of the yellow code. In Litang, we picked up a new friend. Due to the weather, the view of 318 is greatly reduced. In the evening, we stopped at the door of a villager, and because of the content, Tibetan friends invited us to drink butter tea. The Tibetan friends were very enthusiastic, invited us to eat yak jerky and introduced us to their family. After the body warms up, we move on.
On the fourth day, the weather was still gloomy, and we came to the long-awaited Daocheng Aden. Maybe you are curious, what exactly is Daocheng Aden? Many people think it's a place. But in fact, Daocheng is Daocheng, and Aden is Aden Village, which belongs to Daocheng County. The Aden Scenic Area covers an area of 145,750 hectares and consists of three sacred mountains, Xian Nai Ri, Yang Mai Yong and Xia Nuo Dorji, as well as surrounding rivers, lakes and alpine meadows. The three sacred mountains are the souls of Inaogi Aden, and they are also known as the "souls of Shangri-La". Whether you want to play easily or explore in depth, the sacred mountain is not difficult to get close to. Therefore, it is clear that Daocheng Aden is a journey to meet the sacred mountain. There is a lake under the three sacred mountains, such as the Milk Sea and the Pearl Sea. Most of the seas on the plateau are inseparable from the blue sky and white clouds.
The eyes are in heaven, the body is in hell, everyone describes it this way. The weather on the plateau was capricious, with continuous drizzle, muddy paths, and thin air, and we climbed up step by step, and finally saw two small pools with clear water. You may regret not being able to see the most beautiful Daocheng Aden, but you probably won't go a second time. After all, in Tibetan areas, there are too many beautiful seas.
On the fifth day, parting ways with Daocheng Aden, we drove along a sparsely populated road with falling rocks on the mountain along the way. The sun slowly emerges from the clouds, and our mood gradually becomes clearer. The gravel on the road was like a roadblock, and in the end we were blocked from the way, turned the front of the car around, and chose a longer route. At noon, I stopped in a small town where the toilets were dirty and the restaurants were full of flies. I don't know if it's out to play, we pay more attention to the scenery, and although the flies are flying all over the sky, we still eat with relish. In the afternoon, passing through a beautiful grassland, the drizzling rain and the dark sky made us very melancholy. When we were about to get in the car and leave, we didn't expect that the clouds would disperse and the sun would be fully exposed. We galloped across the grassland, jumped, chased yaks, flew coats, and enjoyed the clean and wonderful natural landscape. This is probably the best interpretation of youth and freedom. No constraints, no pressure, only boundless beauty. I want to stay on that grassland all the time, follow the yaks every day, or chase them for nothing. But we don't belong to that grassland after all. Reluctantly, but still turned around and left. This is probably the helplessness of adults, what they like just like it, and if they can't take it away, they will choose to give up without hesitation. It's not that I don't like it, it's just that life goes on and the journey continues. Behind us, we saw the Jinsha River on both sides, and felt that this trip was really worth it, and the names that lived in my memory appeared vividly in front of my eyes. If you don't go out, you will always be imagining and always yearning. When you walk out of the house, you will find that the world is so small, everything is spread out in front of your eyes, and you can also touch and feel it.
When I arrived in Mangkang County, it was already very late. When we finished eating, we couldn't bear to fall asleep like this. Tibet is so close to the sky, even the stars seem to be so close. We drove up the mountain and met to take pictures of the starry sky together. This is probably a rare experience, everyone is holding a mobile phone, raising their heads, and pressing the shutter frantically to the sky. It doesn't matter if the sky is taken well or not, but with a group of warm partners accompanied, under the sky in a different place, it is an unforgettable thing.
On the sixth day, along the Jinsha River Bridge, we entered Tibet with excitement. Tibet is finally no longer a distant term, but vivid pictures appear in front of my eyes. There is a bit of a traffic jam, and there are quite a few sentry checking ID cards along the way.The towering mountains on both sides of the road seem to welcome you on both sides. In this province with an average altitude of more than 3,000 meters, we are getting used to thin air. When we first entered Tibet, there were only towering mountains and winding roads, and we began to feel a little visually tired. Whether it is the Eighteen Bays of Yajiang Tianlu or the 72 turns of the Nu River, it is never so easy to enter the Tibetan area. 318, the moat is still the moat, and we will always be in awe of nature. At the foot of the mountain not far away, we met a grand event of Tibetan compatriots. Although not knowing what they are celebrating? But they sang and danced and infected us, and we unconsciously integrated into the happy and relaxed atmosphere. The children of Tibetan compatriots have become the darlings of our cameras, and they also cooperate obediently, so they may get snacks and toys that they don't usually eat.
On the seventh day, our task was to play. Ranwu Lake, a place without lack of scenery, means "goat's milk-like lake" in Tibetan, and is known as "Western Heaven Yaochi". Its lake water is milky white, so Ranwu Lake, also known as Goat Milk Lake, is located in Ranwu Township, Basu County, Changdu City, Tibet Autonomous Region, and is the main source of Palong Zangbo, a tributary of the Yarlung Zangbo River. There are glaciers and lakes everywhere here, probably because there are many icebergs and abundant water resources. Any lake here is beautiful and breathtaking. We arrived at a wild glacier under the guidance of the locals. The locals charge 50 yuan each before letting you in. Beautiful, the river channels under the glacier are scattered, and the horses on the grassland are happily eating grass. The glacier looked close, walked by car, but found that the road was far away. The wind howls under the glacier, the altitude is high, the temperature is low, and if you can't stand the cold, don't get close to the glacier. You can see that the glacier is white, but you will find that the surface of the glacier is black, and there are many stones on the surface. The surface of the glacier is sharp and very restless. I thought that the temperature in the city was as high as 40 degrees, and in the west of China, I was walking through a glacier. The gifts of nature nurture the entire land of China. The whole of China is one, Sichuan is so rich in hydropower resources, but wind power resources have to be transmitted to eastern cities, and he has to endure the trouble of lack of electricity. Human beings have always been in common, and we must learn to be grateful.
On the eighth day, the 7th day of July, the day when the cowherd and the weaver girl meet, is the traditional Chinese Valentine's Day. We arrived in Lhasa a day earlier. Departing from Ranwu, passing through Nyingchi, the city with the peach blossoms, is known as the city of Jiangnan. Passing through Lulang Town, taste the famous local food, stone pot chicken, and full pots of medicinal materials, all of which are gifts from the local mountain peaks. Nanga Bawa Peak, which requires luck to encounter, we pass by the most beautiful mountain in Tibet. The Niyang River, known as the tears of the goddess by the locals, at the confluence of many rivers, we see the phenomenon of Jingwei, such a beautiful scenery, how many people can see it. At 10 p.m., we finally arrived in Lhasa, the city of dreams, and fulfilled a small dream of mine. The moment I saw the Potala Palace in Lhasa, I was excited, and there were no words to express the mood at that moment, I can only say that all the suffering was worth it. The Potala Palace, overlooking the entire city of Lhasa, is like a gentle present, guarding its children. I want to walk into that city and see what is inside that city.
On the ninth day, I woke up in a B&B in Lhasa. There are always so many incredibles, but I still believe that I am in the holy city of Lhasa. Grabbing tickets to the Potala Palace is the top priority at present, simply, our group grabbed it. Today's task is to go to one of the three sacred lakes in Tibet, Yang Zhuo Yong Cuo. The tour leader first took us to a temple, similar in shape to the Potala Palace, located on a high mountain, and the Tibetans had to overcome difficulties and obstacles to reach the top of the mountain. At the source of the Brahmaputra River, this temple ushered in the Tibetan Fruit Festival, and the Tibetans reveled before harvesting highland barley. Everyone threw highland barley and ghee into the diamond, and the tower suddenly rose with smoke, and everyone prayed around the prayer wheel and shared the food they brought with everyone. Simple Tibetans, despite the difficult living conditions, are happy under the light of faith. Next to Yangzhuo Yongcuo, we all ate a bowl of instant noodles and met the most beautiful Yanghu Lake on the top of the mountain.Standing between the mountains, blue sky, and clouds, facing Yanghu Lake; At that moment, you will forget even the breath, as if flying through a thousand years, flying into the lake, ticking time, forgetting the wind around you, forgetting the beautiful girl you have met; I can't find a suitable word to describe this place, as if it is a blue scattered between heaven and earth, like the clear eyes of a goddess, like the pure gems of a holy place.
Sheep Lake was so big that we only caught a glimpse of a corner of it and left in a hurry. While it was still dark, we took pictures of the reflection of the Potala Palace in the square in front of the Potala Palace. The price in Tibet is very expensive, a bottle of water in the square costs 5 yuan, but everyone doesn't care, the water in the square has never dried up. As a tourist, I refuse to miss the opportunity to take a photo with the Potala Palace. Our four or five bottles of water had no effect in front of the square, so we lined up to wait for someone else's water source. After taking photos, we found a restaurant to eat, and it hailed halfway through. Too many strange experiences continue to enrich my life experience. I, who had never seen hail in the city, saw hail on the plateau in July, how peculiar. After eating, we chose an Internet café to experience the nightlife of Lhasa, the capital of the country. Lhasa, perhaps a city that never sleeps, is full of people in bars, all of whom are tourists from all over the country. Here, don't talk about work, only talk about stories, only about emotions. This is a place for people to vent their emotions, everyone comes with a story and goes with a story.
On the tenth day, complete the last worship of Lhasa as a tourist. Encounter the most beautiful Tibetan style on Bakhor Street, there are more tourists taking pictures than locals, but you still see many devout Tibetans making pilgrimages around Jokhang Temple. The red and white buildings and the prayer flags on the roof tell the faith of this highland city. In the square, the corners of the street are scattered with people, the People's Liberation Army, defending the safety of the city. At noon, I climbed the Red Palace of the Potala Palace and visited the spiritual pagoda of the Dalai Lama in Tibet. Although it is not the history of the Tibetan people, you can really feel the deep love of the Tibetans for the lamas. In the afternoon, I took photos in the square in front of the Potala Palace, and in the evening, I watched the live performance of Princess Wencheng. This is the end of my day as a tourist, and it is also the end of my trip to Sichuan and Tibet.
The beginning of a journey means the end of the journey. The end, not the real end. In the future, I still have a lot of distance to travel, Lhasa, just a short journey. In the future, it is unknown what will happen, and it is unknown whether he will be able to go to Lhasa again. Everything has expectations, because there are expectations, there will be motivation. If I could, I would like to pour my tears into Lhasa, in Yanghu Lake, and tell it that I still want to see you.
