West Sichuan, meet the most beautiful you.

Every trip is full of enthusiasm and lingering. Compared with the unchanging life, there is a surging heart in my body that I always want to go out. I will experience the meaning of life on the road, I will live on the road. I always like to record all the beautiful things in my journey with my camera and words! Pictures and texts are not the real purpose of travel. You can only record what you want to keep in your mind. Watching it after several years, or being surprised or moved, is the best memory. ...

Western Sichuan is really God's hidden back garden, with colorful forests, pure glaciers and snow-capped mountains, countless peaks of different shapes, vast plateau meadows, thrilling canyons and gurgling streams ... There are endless primitive and direct spiritual beauty here. ...

The first two days of this hasty journey were rainy and snowy. Although it is very thrilling, there are still some regrets. Maybe it's God's blessing, maybe my personality is bursting. In the last two days, I finally saw the sunshine and the most beautiful western Sichuan. Although it is very hard, it is worth it!

DAY 1: Chengdu-Hailuogou, with a total length of 278km. If it is normal, it will take 4 hours. Take Hua Mu Road Expressway, G5 Jingkun Expressway 125.4km, and then G42 18 Yakang Expressway. The toll is more than 40 yuan. There is nothing to see in the expressway tunnel. Until passing through Erlangshan Tunnel, the terrain and mountain scenery were refreshing, nerves began to get nervous, brains began to get excited, the cliffs were hazy, the roads were narrow, and there were many trucks all the way, so I hung my heart on the passenger side and didn't dare to blink. First, I don't want to miss the beautiful scenery along the way, and I am more worried about Master Liu next to me. After all, it is the first time to drive this road, and I have been thinking about it. 10 or so to arrive in Luding, you have to take a crossing of Dadu Bridge. One ticket was 10 yuan, but I was disappointed. The swaying iron cable bridge, the hollowed-out bridge deck and the rushing water of the Dadu River made me dizzy, and I retreated after walking for a while. Seeing them swaggering by, I envy them. In retrospect, when the Red Army flew to Luding Bridge, it felt awe.

Luding county is so small that you can see everything without looking at it. You just found a restaurant to solve your lunch. The yak meat recommended by the boss said it was delicious, but it was all left. Eat a little and continue on your way. It is more than 50 kilometers from Luding to Hailuogou, Panshan Road, and the road conditions are OK. Just be careful to avoid big trucks. Behind the national highway is 2 1 1. Because after the National Day peak, there are fewer people in the scenic spot. The owner of Moxi Town B&B is soliciting customers in the parking lot of the scenic spot. There are many B&B inns and high-end hotels here. The advantage of cross-peak tourism is that the scenic spots are yours and the inns and restaurants are yours. You can choose at will, it's cheap and good, eat comfortably, live comfortably and have fun. Settle down, go directly to Glacier Forest Park, get a ticket 160 yuan/person, and then go up the mountain in sightseeing bus, a scenic spot, for about an hour. There are many colorful forests in the canyon along the way, and there are video materials and explanations on the car. Hailuogou has four camps and several scenic spots. Whenever we visit a scenic spot, the driver must remind the tourists. We will go all the way to the terminal, and then take the cable car 150 yuan/Ren. The weather is fine, and birds can be seen. When you get off the cable car, take the plank road from Camp 4 and follow the scenic navigation signs. It's snowing on the top of the mountain, and it's freezing. The most important thing is that it is shrouded in fog and the line of sight is too narrow. Seeing flowers in the fog makes me feel colder and colder, but it still reaches the highest point. When we deeply regret it, God opens our eyes. The dense fog on the top of the mountain dispersed, revealing a white and flawless ice waterfall, which was magnificent and extraordinary. At this moment, it's like a fairyland. Direct attack on my inner purity and tolerance makes me feel guilty. Under the snowy peak of Gongga Mountain, I was so humble and insignificant ... Although the ice waterfall was like a flash in the pan, it was quickly shrouded in fog, and I didn't see the legendary sunshine and golden mountain flashing, but I was satisfied that Hailuogou was worth it.

A short moment makes me miss my life, and a short glance makes me emotional. This is the charm of nature. As it was getting late, I took the cable car down the mountain and turned around to Camp 3. In the jungle, I could see macaques at any time, sitting and watching from a distance, waiting for tourists to give me food. There are many classic scenic spots in Hailuogou, with limited time and weather, so we hurried down the mountain before dark. Dinner is the most to my liking, fried meat slices with wild mushrooms, fried garlic sprouts with old alpine bacon and light and delicious sauerkraut vermicelli soup.

After dinner, visit Moxi ancient town. Moxi Ancient Town was the first town where the Red Army entered Ganzi Tibetan area, and the Catholic Church was the temporary residence of Mao Zedong during the Red Army's Long March. Here, the Red Army held a Moxi meeting and made a concrete plan to fly over Luding Bridge. Moxi ancient town has a long history. Despite the vicissitudes of time, it can be seen from its numerous ancient buildings in Ming and Qing Dynasties. Streets paved with bluestones, colorful soft lights, hardworking and kind shopkeepers, 19 18, the most distinctive Catholic church built by French missionaries, make the night in the ancient town more gentle and charming, and the blending of Chinese and western cultures adds another interest to the ancient town ... Moxi ancient town, far from the noise of the city, is very quiet after 9 o'clock, and I also went to bed early, perhaps not yet. In short, I didn't have a sweet dream or a deep sleep (in fact, my body is already very tired). ...

The next day: Moxi Town-xinduqiao, full length 150km, 3 18 national highway and 2 15 provincial highway. Starting from Moxi Town, along Gongga Avenue, to the Hongshitan Park in Yajiageng, this is definitely another dazzling pearl at the foot of Gongga Mountain. This is one of the largest red stone beaches in the world. The rust-red substance growing on stones is an extremely rare algae (lichen complex). Under suitable humidity, temperature and climate conditions, this plant will naturally grow on the rock surface, die after about four or five years, and then regenerate. When I got here, it was still foggy and the melting snow was gurgling. Red stones of various shapes on both sides of the river are dazzling. Tourists cheer here, revel here, pose for photos here, and tour group leaders and self-driving masters keep urging them to get on the bus. The tourists' feet seem to be welded to a stone, and they really don't want to leave. If the fog clears and the sun is shining, what will Red Rock Beach look like? Only see you next time.

Reluctantly left Hongshitan Park and moved on. All the way down the mountain, overlooking the beautiful scenery of the snow-capped mountains, climbing mountains and mountains, and experiencing the thrills of the 18-bend mountain road made me fascinated and foggy. When there were more than 10 kilometers from Kangding, the right front wheel was hit by falling rocks on the ground, and there were few vehicles on the road. We have to change the spare tire for the novice ourselves. After the tire was supported by the jack, Master Liu said that the wrench for screwing the nut did not match, so I had to call the police for help. Half an hour later, the repairman came and squatted down to get the protective cover outside the tire. At this time, Master Liu and I smiled at each other and understood in an instant. You are not afraid of making a fool of yourself. You can watch others make a fool of yourself next time, hahahaha. ...

Lunch was just waiting for the repairman, so I ate a convenient meal myself. When I arrived in Kangding, I changed the spare tire I just put on. Come on. I didn't care to stay in Kangding, so I went directly to xinduqiao. The 3 18 line I have been thinking about has finally gone a short way. Kangding goes through many mountains to xinduqiao town. Zheduo Mountain is located in Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan Province, with an altitude of 4,298 meters, which is the first pass of Kangba. "Zheduo" means bending in Tibetan, and it is also written in Chinese. The winding mountain highway with many mountains is really nine bends and eighteen bends. It winds back and forth like the word "Duo", turning one corner after another. No wonder the local people have a saying: "Erlang Mountain is scary, and many mountains are overturned." Walking on this winding road, I really don't feel anything in my heart! I have been worried about the limitation of snow in Zheduo Mountain before going out. Fortunately, when we reached the top of Zheduo Mountain, it was snowing there, and we were very excited. Impression of snow, light and elegant, flying with the wind. However, this is not the case. The snow in Zheduo Mountain is granular, which hurts a little when it hits our faces. Facing the snowflake, we rushed to the observation deck and accepted the sacred baptism. After taking a few blurred photos at random, I was exhausted and had to leave in a hurry.

After passing the 4298-meter mark, I went all the way south to the legendary photographer's paradise-xinduqiao. On the way to xinduqiao, the scenery on both sides of the road is beautiful and changeable. Although there is no blue sky and white clouds, the rain and fog are like fairyland. The houses by the roadside, cattle and horses, trees in the pasture and mountains in the distance are enough to dazzle me. I kept telling Master Liu to stop, and the shutter kept flashing. I wish I could not freeze every inch of land, every beautiful place, and savor it slowly. During this journey, we walked slowly, not because of the traffic jam, but because the beautiful scenery blocked my heart and blocked my progress. My beauty level is limited, I can't describe it in words, I can only feel it myself. When I arrived in xinduqiao town at night, there were many inns, so I just found a place to stay. Master Liu is exhausted, with high altitude and a little cold. It's really hard to drive alone! Putting down my luggage, I was in high spirits, went out for a walk in the hotel, and then went to eat. I am not picky about food, but I am very picky about it. Tibetan food must not be used to it. I chose a restaurant run by Chongqing people. It's pickled fish. It's delicious. I ate a little. It is getting late. It is snowing heavily outside. Under the light, dreamy snowflakes are flying all over the sky, which is so beautiful. A group of Guangdong tourists got carried away with excitement and stood in the middle of the dam with open arms to embrace the heavy snow. Of course, I have not been idle, walking in the snow, letting snowflakes fall on my body, wetting my skirt and losing my heart.

I heard it was terrible. I wish I didn't. I walked and danced all the way, taking a bath every night, as if there were no symptoms. However, in hotels in xinduqiao, the heating is suffocating and the air is stuffy. I felt headache as soon as I entered, but I stood well. Lying down is more serious, and you will be fine when you go out. I ate a piece of Sanlietong, which relieved me a little, and then I spent the night in a daze.

The third day: xinduqiao-Xiaojin County, the whole journey is more than 400 kilometers, which is quite hard, especially the section from Danba to Xiaojin, where the road surface is rotten and narrow, and there is nothing to see all the way. Starting from xinduqiao to Tagong Grassland is a photography paradise that fascinates me. Legend has it that this is a picturesque paradise, with magical light, boundless grasslands, winding streams, golden poplars, continuous mountains, scattered Tibetan villages, cattle and sheep grazing peacefully ... Although it is not as magical and beautiful as the legend (because of the bad weather), it is enough to make me stop and linger. I got off the bus for a few minutes along the way.

God is really sorry for finally coming to Tagong Grassland. He even smiled and ignited my passion. I forgot my hunger and went straight to the grassland. I passed the Tagong Temple, but I didn't go in because of my different beliefs. There are two turning corridors in the hall: one is a small turning corridor around the tower hall; The other is a large turning corridor around the renovated temple (including Tallinn). In the morning and evening, local herdsmen or pilgrims from other places recite the Mani Sutra, turn their hands to "East Carving" and turn clockwise. If you are a devout believer, you can stay here. Standing on the observation deck of Tagong grassland overlooking Yala Snow Mountain, it looks like a lotus throne surrounded by petals. Colorful prayer flags dance in the sun and the wind. Legend has it that every time the wind blows on the prayer flags, it's like reading the scripture on it. All the buddhas in the sky protect all those who make and hang prayer flags. Where there are prayer flags, there is kindness and auspiciousness. Standing on the top of the mountain overlooking the grassland, the wind messed up my hair and my heart. I don't know whether to leave my soul here or my body here. A person stayed on the grassland for three hours, and left step by step at the urging of Master Liu. ...

Leave Tagong and enter Xiaojin via Bamendamba. From Tagong to Danba, the road conditions are average, with occasional pits. The colorful forests on both sides of the road are the most attractive. Of course, the mountain is high and the road is steep. Drive carefully, safety first. Walking all the way, stopping all the way, chanting peace all the way, taking pictures all the way. From Danba to Xiaojin, it began to rain again, and the road conditions were super bad. Apart from bare mountains and canyons, the only comfort is a stream. Personally, I suggest not to take this road, and there are too many potholes, and most of the roads are still under renovation. Through the jungle fog, over one mountain after another, and finally arrived in Xiaojin County before dark. A small county, equivalent to a town, has many places to eat and live, but the conditions are average. I found something to eat at home casually, but it still didn't agree with me. I barely ate a little and went back to the hotel to sleep. This night may be because I didn't sleep well for several nights, or it may be because of the low altitude. I slept until 5 o'clock in the morning. I got up at 7 o'clock, washed and went out for breakfast. No one answered the door, so I had to go hungry.

Day 4: Xiaojin-Siguniang Mountain Shuangqiaogou-Chengdu, the whole journey is nearly 300 kilometers. Xiaojin is only more than 50 kilometers to Shuangqiaogou, and it is more than 8 o'clock to the entrance of the scenic spot. Admission 150 yuan/person. Siguniang Mountain Scenic Area includes Haizigou, Shuangqiaogou, Changping Valley and Siguniang Mountain. Because time is limited, we chose Shuangqiaogou. Sightseeing bus is upstream and downstream. The driver will take us to the end of the ditch first, and then visit the scenic spots step by step. The scenic spot is divided into three parts: Yin and Yang Valley, Riyue Baojing Mountain and Wuse Mountain. The front section is Yuba, and the middle section is Ginseng Fruit Ping and Seabuckthorn Forest. There are cowshed lawn, long river beach, Aryan Mountain, Hunter Peak, blood wall and other scenic spots in the back section. There are mountains on both sides of the ditch, but the mountains are different. The ditch is full of scenery, and the scenery is different. It can really be said that "from the side of the ridge, it becomes a mountain peak, with different distances." In the ditch, patches of birch forest, poplar forest, green maple forest, redwood forest, seabuckthorn forest, shrub and larch are covered with white snow and shine in the sun. Here, I forgot not to eat breakfast, and I forgot to go back to Chengdu today and put on Tibetan clothes, which made me beautiful. Time waits for no one, and it's already three o'clock in the afternoon before you know it. I hurried down the hill and set foot on my way home. Shuangqiaogou returned to Chengdu, first crossed Balangshan, and then saw Siguniang Mountain on Balangshan Highway. That's really shocking Unfortunately, he can't stop at will, so he has to look at it and engrave its beauty in his heart. There are tunnels in Balang Mountain now, so you can choose freely. All the way, the mountains are green and the colorful forests are gorgeous. You can't bear to leave again, but you will leave after all. All the way down the mountain, through Wolong nature reserve and then on the expressway, after Yingxiu and Dujiangyan, I arrived home at 7 pm, and the pleasant trip was over.

During a trip to western Sichuan, I left the roots of acacia, from Luding to Hailuogou, from Moxi to Kangding, from Kangding to xinduqiao, from xinduqiao to Tagong, and from Tagong to Siguniang Mountain. Every section of the road is close, and every scene is exciting. This trip has snow-capped mountains, grasslands, glaciers, canyons, snow and sunshine. Thank you!

A wonderful life is always on the road. When I pack my bags and go out, it will always be the purest, most exciting and free and easy moment in my heart. For the rest of my life, I hope you can accompany me to the ends of the earth, to the ends of the earth, to the dry sea, to the rotten rocks, and make me more gentle. (Ha ha ha ha, I don't even believe myself)
