Sichuan Qinghai road 2015 national day 8 day with Lonely Planet s footsteps

Sichuan, Qinghai road-2015 national day 8 day with Lonely Planet's footsteps

If you do not to touch the unknown, our senses dulled, our world is so small, even the curiosity will disappear. Our eyes will no longer look to the distant horizon, ears can't hear those familiar voices.

When we live day after day in front of it, it also limits our experience of life. When finally one day when we came, you will find that the stay of this life is at the expense of our dreams.

The fear of the unknown, upon comfortable will prevent us from becoming a traveler on the adventure. However, when you make your choice, you will never regret it.

--Why do we travel,

Sichuan, Qinghai road-2015 national day 8 day with Lonely Planet's footsteps

We always have too many ties, always will own automobile went to ride off indefinitely until: come on, have the opportunity to go again. Always, once twice three times, but this is no longer. So I tell myself: If you don't go, you would think that this is the world. Some things don't do it now, you won't do it. Think about it, have the courage to go carrying bag.

Overall impression

This is pure driving in Qinghai, Gansu, Sichuan link via ABA, Xining, Qinghai Lake, Golden Bay, Lanzhou. Road a scenic plateau Lakes, desert, deserts, Prairies and the most beautiful most beautiful starry sky ~

This way is a real hell, past G309 like no man's land, drove the lane when the two-lane country road, muddy mountain road and over two mountain. Of course there are a lot of people when the plane wanted to car straight flat road, similar to the road around Qinghai Lake, Xining new highways. Meet the hospitality of the locals, as well as the return encounter on the road of Chongqing alone more than 5,000 square miles of fellow ...

Unknown hard hard all the way, especially when you have a few hours of winding gravel road over a mountain and found a mountain, all the way no other vehicle, and run out of time. ... Vehicles are not good. Despite this, laughing and encouraging each other but these incidents seem insignificant.

Just seven days, we crossed the mountains and the sea, passing through packed.

From day to night, from grasslands to Alpine, from lakes to deserts, from busy to wild and not stopped. I think the four of us, the experience unforgettable. Thanksgiving the way take care of each other and society, for all what happens on this road.

Tour of Qinghai Lake Road West, walked along

All the way along the Lake Road to gangcha County, lunch, wonderful indeed

Braised Lamb-beautiful!

Golden Bay, is a magical place of Qinghai Lake, a Lake, on the edge of sand dune landscape, impressive

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon we came to the famous Golden Sands Bay, tickets to 251, I mainly want to experience falling sand, but the sand here really, just look at pretty steep, a bit empty, but the actual operation, speed, not enough stimulation, also in Highlands-climbing up, tired ... Breath!

In Golden Bay, the most impressive is the most interesting thing is, my old Liu and whim, saw a few sand dunes, no visitors to the barren dunes, we want to climb in the past in Sha Po, put us on a loved one's last name. But this idea, and CHOW said it was impossible to immediately. Because the sand slopes is a little bit far away, and a steep, here is a desert plateau, have to write a big, there are difficulties, but we decided to try ~

Below is written back to the Middle, not we climb over 3 Hills is the embodiment of hard

Then we write course, first in a draft from the hills here, because our "Board" is very steep, and we should use to write and need to write a lot, how to identify writing, we wrote the word size is the same, and the key is to avoid our footprints affect the word walk, drafts are as follows

Programmes, to begin turning over sand dunes, to the first Dune top, you can see Lake, the scenery is very beautiful

Climb the second mountain, can be seen from the figure below the degree of slope, really is to "climb", a bit like climbing Mountain ...

Preparing to write

Writing process more difficult than imagined, the slope is very steep, and people to maintain the balance, sand flow, often need to be repaired before the stroke in order to keep the shape ...

Really go very far to find that no one walked the dunes

Finally, the sleeping one, call it a day, thoroughly exhausted ...

Pack up to leave Golden Beach, hopes of Xining in the evening gourmet dinner, HA HA

See the Qinghai Lake Road, while on his way, but still could not help but Pat ahead of me

Xining

Bai Tuo yak back flesh, 9 o'clock arrived at Xining, the name store, also in a row number ... Tragedy came to still have to wait, wouldn't want to find out, get some chips Ahoy pad back on the inside

Restaurant in a private room, nice food good, taste good, overall good! Yak meat, ginseng fruits, beef, cabbage, barley bread. Eating too cool, of course, the end did not forget to continue to play our game-everyone was satisfied, then finger-guessing game, lost must take the winners under the specified piece of meat or vegetables, laughter ...

To say the trip when you do the most crazy, than the rapid drift 12 corners, as well as to Xining Highway 190 mph per hour ... Never forget 12 slope opposite the driver shocked expression and scared almost surprised in the wrong direction.

The Lanzhou-Chongqing

"Sentimental than when impression from you and me. No time to look back "

Tongue-tip of beef noodles for breakfast, great, many Orchid students here

All short go together, perhaps is the beginning of goodbye. An eight-day, seven-night trip with return, thus bring the curtain down. There's a lot of beauty, the camera can shoot out, of course not. This experience along the way many of the stories and seen so much beauty, mostly the small frames hold only remains in the bottom, drifting for a long time, and memorable.

Looking out the window changing images, not by the thought of a Word, when you have seen the most beautiful scenery in the world, your heart is washed into a blank, free and quiet, because it soothes my heart disturbed; when you taste the best cuisine, will get great satisfaction, because it fills your emptiness. In the expanse of the sea for the first time you heard the voice of your heart, you feel smooth in the damp wind breath, how good it, over and over again ... ... You know you are alive and alive--so true, that is, the meaning of travel.

Although it is in fact not so romantic, that beauty may soon be forgotten, those photos taken of May is on the corner. But what's really important is that traveling allows us to know ourselves. In a strange environment, can learn how to better yourself, better understanding of peer friends mutually dependent care. Although not really was beautiful, but very impressive.

 

I have crossed the mountains and the sea through the packed

I have asked all over the world never get the answers

I just like you like it like that weeds and wild flowers

I imagine this is my only way to go

No such

Tomorrow is at hand

Wind is still a long way

Your story which

The biggest regret is that his wife failed to ...

Continued attention to original travel guide experiences sharing more and better? Attention to "play out" micro-signal
