Maybe starting from Qingdao, walking through Wuhan, entering Yichang, and Chongqing in midsummer, the weather is hot and fast-paced. The hot and cold inside and outside the car are switched frequently. Qi Xiaobao developed a high fever in Chengdu. Maybe the weather in Chengdu is too hot. A high fever is an unprecedented 39 degrees, which scared Qi's father and mother to death! He rushed to the hospital as soon as possible. When he arrived at the hospital, because of the pop-up window and the quarantine personnel at the door for a long time, the policy had no lover. Da Bai in the emergency room still helped coordinate various registrations and entered the clinic. Here, I want to praise the enthusiastic Da Bai of the People's Hospital of Wenjiang District! The doctor was kind and amiable, but the result was unexpected but not dangerous-he caught a cold! Children do not hide their diseases. Diseases come quickly and recover quickly! Originally, Qi's father was already thinking about changing his plan. After all, only when the child is good are the years of peace! Nothing else matters. The strong Qi Xiaobao is lively and lively. He feels like he has used the two days of home health testing to rest himself. Since the children are good men again, his father will no longer be pretentious! The journey continues, but changes the in-depth tour of Chengdu to a rest and preparation period in Tibet.
If Qi Xiaobao takes a walk around the giant panda base, he will warm up in front of the Sichuan-Tibet line and find the "cat" trio! Qi Xiaobao is in extremely good condition, as if nothing happened in the past two days. The child is happy, and the haze that Qi's parents have pressed down on their hearts has also been swept away.
Qi Xiaobao chose a giant panda hairpin for his mother to make Qi Ma look cute!
The exaggerated expression of the giant panda already shows how hot the weather is today!
A panda the same age as Qi Xiaobao was found. His birthday was only 6 days away. In this way, for Qi Xiaobao, this is a big panda.
Qiyi, the giant panda of the same age as Qi Xiaobao, looked comfortable and slept soundly in his exclusive tree house
Qi Xiaobao is curious about Qiyi, who is his own age. He compares the classic scissors and the giant panda in the same frame. His love is beyond words!
Panda ice cream brings a touch of coolness to the sultry weather
Today's high temperatures make the giant pandas look less decent. They feel like they fell asleep without posing. In Qi Xiaobao's words, they are summer sleep.
There are still decent giant pandas. Look at this one, facing the tourists and pretending not to fall asleep! Do you look like you sleepy in class? At school, in the sleepy summer class, Qi Dad once wished to have such dark circles under his eyes as a disguise! haha
The panda base is surrounded by bamboo forests. Bamboo is the favorite of giant pandas, so you can use local materials
Qi Xiaobao has obtained his spoils of war, and everyone wants to be proud. Panda toys are Qi Xiaobao's goal today
People in the Jianghu cannot help themselves! For Yu Qi Xiaobao, the upcoming trip to the Sichuan-Tibet line is something he cannot help but! In fact, the only thing Qi Xiaobao is interested in is returning to Qingdao to catch crabs. There is a natural sense of closeness between children and the sea.
As today's protagonist, Qi Xiaobao is the best spokesperson for our trip. If he smiles happily, our trip will be worth it!
Say goodbye to the Panda Base, we should pack our bags and set off for 318
I purchased some necessary supplies in a supermarket in Chengdu, including mineral water drinks, self-heating rice and instant noodles. Later, I discovered that Qi Dad still had the impression that he had stayed seven years ago. Today, the Sichuan-Tibet Highway has a rich supply of materials along the road, which is no longer comparable to that day.
In this life, I must drive 318 Chengdu, which is less than 300 kilometers away from Kangding, the throat of entering Tibet. If you become famous or the Beijing-Kunming Expressway connects to the Yaye Expressway, the entire highway can reach Kangding Liucheng. The last time was white, this time was black, the last time the SUV was invincible, and this time the MPV was not sure, why was it not sure? The chassis is low, the body is long, and the asphalt road is not difficult. It's hard to say if you walk on a bad road! The fact is that Qi Dad's concerns are unnecessary. Today's Sichuan-Tibet line has long been completely transformed. It can still be compared to the roads in Beijing, not to mention the roads in third-and fourth-tier cities! Therefore, if you have ideas about entering Tibet, you don't need to be nervous. Don't worry about the car, just start practicing!
The Tianquan service area on the Yaye Expressway is larger than Qi Dad's imagination. The service area has everything from clothes, hats, shoes and socks to various delicacies! The hustle and bustle is all about entering Tibet and going to Tibet. In short, you can buy everything you need to enter Tibet here. Even if you don't bring any luggage, you can still buy it in one stop at the Tianquan service area! This shows the strong passenger flow of 318! The law of supply and demand is vividly reflected here. Where there are people, there is business. This is true!
Tianquan Service Area has a special geographical location and has become a must-pass for self-driving into Tibet. Under this sign, people flow endlessly, coming and going.
Qi Ma was innovative and sat on the ground just because of these impassioned characters,"We must drive 318 in this life." Even if we are in Tibet for the second time, we must always have a sense of ceremony! Isn't it just for the upcoming pilgrimage?
Crossing the Dadu River, due to the high speed, we skipped Luding and went straight to Kangding. The Luding Bridge was not part of our plan for this trip. However, there are always trade-offs in life, and so is travel. After all, time and energy are limited. Take the children and pick the best.
Hello Kangding! Hello, Liucheng!I thought it would be more troublesome to enter Tibetan areas, but I didn't expect that after the green code was displayed, it would be released immediately. There was no suspense in coming to the city. It seems that it is right to be troublesome in Chengdu. After completing the procedures for entering Sichuan, as long as it is a green code, in Ganzi Prefecture, located in western Sichuan, you can walk freely without requiring cumbersome procedures
Kangding City is sandwiched between three mountains and one river. The three mountains are the Gongga Divine Mountain, Yala Snow Mountain, and Zheduo Mountain. One river is the Zheduo River that runs through Kangding City. Each mountain is famous. The three mountains protect Kangding City, making it possible to see the mountains and rivers in Kangding City.
Due to its location in the canyon area, Kangding City has limited space. The entire city is built along both sides of the Zhuduo River. Therefore, parking in Kangding is a big problem. Before booking a hotel, you must know whether the hotel provides a parking lot. This is very important. Otherwise, you have to find a place to park your car everywhere when you first reach an altitude of 2500 meters, and you have to walk back to the hotel. It's enough for you! The surging waters of the Zheduo River shocked Qi Xiaobao
The Zhuduo River, roaring through the city, galloping forward without looking back, as if it was about to rush to the next party. The Zhuduo River and the Yala River meet in Kangding. Perhaps this is the reason why the Zhuduo River is impatient
Passing by a building marked with Kangding Gate, I don't know if it is a historic site, but Kangding City blends the old and the new, and it is no longer possible to tell the difference between the old and the new.
Let's get a look at the Internet celebrity restaurant in Liuliu City
The integration of Sichuan and Tibet is quite delicious
This ice cream dessert is called Gongga Shenshan. It has a unique shape and delicious taste
Qi Xiaobao felt dizzy after eating and didn't want to take a step. It's a symptom of high altitude! Qi's father immediately adjusted his itinerary and decided to stay in Kangding for an extra day to help Qi Xiaobao adapt to the high altitude and also observe whether he could continue to enter Tibet. If he felt that he was not adapted, there was nothing to say and he immediately went down the mountain and returned home.
Qi Xiaobao, who stayed for one night, feels obviously much better. The children are indeed very resilient. Of course, we will not miss it in front of the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers. We have arranged tours around Kangding, with beautiful scenery along the way, and parking at any time.
Zeduo River Valley, Qi Xiaobao can finally enjoy playing in the water
After Kangding, I really set foot on 318. Only then did I leave Kangding City and cross a slope. The scenery had suddenly changed in style, and the river water was crystal clear and blue in color. This river flowed down from Zhuoduo Mountain, carrying the greetings of the mountains. Standing in the river valley, Qi Ma's mood was like this rushing Zhuoduo River, clear and happy! This is the unique mood of self-driving 318!
Zuimei S434318 is constructed for traffic control on the section from Kangding to Zheduo Mountain. Crossing Zheduo Mountain and continuing on 318 requires a detour to S434. I thought this road might not have 318 classics. I turned in advance and found a surprise. Mountains and canyons, green grass, and large tracts of clouds, such as white Hada, winding around the top of the mountains. Isn't this the clouds for horse racing? Qi Ma originally did not have much expectations for today's scenery, but this unexpected beauty came a little off guard. Standing in front of the camera, she actually didn't know which foot to stretch out.
A few steps down the roadside will give you a peerless beauty. The S434 is not inferior to the 318 at all. The quiet and warm beauty makes people feel at ease instantly. Most of the beautiful scenery on the plateau have such magic! You look at the dreamy beauty in front of you, and then you are so quiet that you can hear your heartbeat and breathing! Qi Dad felt that the higher the altitude, the closer it was to his soul. Qi Ma closed her palms in front of a Mani pile, grateful for meeting, grateful for the years, and grateful for all the good times!
On the first day, it jumped from 2500+ to 4100+. Qi Xiaobao felt a little floating, and they felt panting after taking two steps. The saying "vision is heaven, body is hell" is true, at least this is how Qi Xiaobao feels. Qi Xiaobao has long been sleeping soundly in the car
In the distance, the snowy mountains, the slowly flowing streams, the clouds and mist rolling in the blue sky, and the breeze gently kisses the tip of your hair. Is there a more beautiful time than this? Qi Ma was intoxicated by this beautiful scenery, her heart was calm and beautiful!
The scenery here deserves no matter how exaggerated the movements are. Qi Ma dances her arms as if she wants to dance with this beautiful scenery. The beauty of the world is to have a pair of eyes that discover beauty and a soul that can feel beauty. Qi Ma has it all
We set off again the next day. A mountain stream on the roadside was like a Hada swaying down from the top of the mountain. The roaring and rushing water deeply attracted Qi Xiaobao. For the first time, he took the initiative to ask for a photo. The little guy stretched out his arms and tiptoed. Tipes, as if to fly off the ground. Careful your nose, this is a plateau of 3500+!
To live, one should stand between heaven and earth, walk and feel.
Clouds are all so thick and broad that they cover the mountains with a stroke. In Kangding, the disappearance of one stroke occurs in this sky every day
After passing through the beautiful scenery at an altitude of 4100 meters yesterday again, Qi Xiaobao was encouraged to get off the car and check out. Unexpectedly, the children were indifferent to the beautiful scenery that distracted Qi's parents. They just played with his car by the plateau creek. Toy car, well, you will remember it when you see it. I hope you will have a pair of eyes that discover beauty sooner or later and a soul that can accommodate beauty!
Honghaizi, on the way to Tagong Grassland in Kangding, you can see the Yala Snow Mountain here. Since Qi Xiaobao is not suitable for being too tired, we did not go to the lake. We just took some photos on the observation platform and took children on the plateau. When traveling, we would directly skip all those who need to leave their own cars and travel too far, such as Mugecuo. As for Honghaizi, standing here and observing from a distance is also a good choice
Honghaizi, at an altitude of 4200 meters, is a clear lake like a mirror lying quietly at the foot of the Yala Snow Mountain. The lake reflects the snowy peaks. It is said that the scenery is best when the sun sets in the west. Today's weather is not beautiful and there is no blue sky company. Hong Haizi is like a shy girl who does not show her most beautiful appearance to us
Not far from Honghaizi, it is the 4401 Miyala Pass. On our first day, we crossed from more than 2,000 to more than 4,000, like taking an elevator.
The grassland on the plateau-Tagong Grassland, is the home court of yaks. At this height, there are occasionally eagles soaring in the sky, and only yaks are left on the ground. Otherwise, how can yaks have the reputation of being the boat of the plateau? At the extreme heights of life, only yaks can walk freely
Qi Ma's adaptability is not bad either and can basically cope with the current high altitude
Because Qi Ma still has a job and cannot do without mobile phone signal, China Unicom's mobile phones often become embarrassing decorations on the plateau. There were several times when shopping at the Tibetan brothers 'commercial stalls, they could be used both mobile and telecommunications. Only mobile phones equipped with China Unicom cards have become a real brick on the plateau! In view of limited communication, we gave up going deep into the hinterland of Tagong Grassland and went to Xindu Bridge to connect with 318.
At a stupa on the roadside of Xinduqiao, Qi's father leaned the car against the roadside and let Qi Xiaobao, who had been sleeping all the way, get off the bus.
Qi Xiaobao slept through several mountains in a sleep. When he woke up, he was still a little stunned, so he had to relax by a river at Xindu Bridge. This is the case in the Hengduan Mountains. Along the way, there are many mountains with ups and downs. It is normal to read the four seasons in a day and sleep over several mountains in one night
At the end of the tunnel is the Yajiang Xindu Bridge between Kangding and Yajiang. It is at the foot of the mountain at an altitude of 3500+. It is known as a photographer's paradise. After crossing the Xindu Bridge, you have to cross the 4659-meter Gaoersi Mountain to the Yajiang River. This is the only way to the Yajiang River. When Qi Dad took this road in 2015, he was thrilling when crossing Gaoersi Mountain, which is still fresh in his memory. Although I heard that this road has been greatly improved, I still took several deep breaths at the Xindu Bridge before crossing it. After eating Matsutake Chai Chicken Hot Pot to cheer up, my stomach was not full. How can the years be peaceful? Hehe!
Take a picture of the rugged mountain road of Gaoersi Mountain seven years ago. It is really a mountain road. Qi Dad almost turned it into an adventure!
Moving forward with anxiety, the 318 road along the way has taken on a completely new look. It opens roads when encountering mountains and bridges when encountering water. A standard road winds through the mountains
Qi Dad was still nervous. A tunnel appeared in front of him. It was the Gaoersi Mountain Tunnel that was still under construction. The fact was already in front of him. Crossing Gaoersi Mountain, there was no need to climb the top of the pass. Instead, the tunnel halfway through the mountain directly passes through the mountain., greatly saving time and distance
Yajiang is an altitude depression where 318 enters Tibet. Yajiang County is 2600 above sea level, which is almost the lowest altitude on the Sichuan-Tibet Road. Therefore, many people usually choose to adapt to it in Yajiang on their first night in Tibet. We are no exception. Yajiang County is located in a canyon area, and the entire county seat is only one street, with 318 passing through the city.
Western Sichuan headed west out of the Yajiang River and along the river valley. After making countless turns, the Gaode navigation on the car suddenly said,"Today you have gone through all the detours, and life will be smooth from then on". Then it came back. I was walking on the eighteen bends of Tianlu. When I reached the top of the mountain, I quickly took a photo. The eighteen bends of Tianlu were eighteen bends.
Scissors Bend Mountain is a natural observation platform for snow-capped mountains. This is a stage for snow-capped mountains and blue skies and white clouds. Large clouds chase and dance in the air. When you sing, I will appear on the stage. The sky does not move, the clouds do not move, and the mountains do not move. Moving and not moving are all scenery.
Xiong Zongka at an altitude of 4281 meters, Qi Ma searched for the memories of that year all the way. Time flies, seven years after turning around, how many seven years can life have? The green mountains are still the same and the green water flows long, but time is like a white horse passing through the gap. In the blink of an eye, things have changed. Change and unchanging are all causes and effects. Cherish the present, because whether you want it or not, the earth will turn you around every day! The only constant thing in life is change itself.
Touch the cloud you touched back then
Make the wish you made back then
Blow through the wind that blew back then
Take a look at the people who have seen it back then. After 30 days of sun and moon essence, Qi Dad has successfully become a Tibetan compatriot! Thinking of the advertising slogan of Haitian soy sauce,"Sun every bottle of soy sauce carefully", Qi Dad was undoubtedly very careful! haha
On the 4718-meter Kazila Mountain, wild flowers are covered with the meadows, and large clouds dance with the mountains. Wherever you can see, people's souls are released. Qi Ma abandoned her reserve and bravely jumped, happy to rise! From having headaches all day
Looking at the wild flowers on the plateau blooming wantonly, Qi Dad had a sudden idea and wanted Qi Mom to lie down on the carpet-like wild flower meadow, snowy mountains, mountains, sky, flowing clouds, flowers, and girls. How beautiful everything is! After filming, Qi Ma said,"Why do you want to send it off?" The situation was instantly broken and disappeared! Reply: "Bah!" Leave!
After wandering for several hours in the plateau mountains nearly 5000 meters, I came across a city with a majestic gate and a golden plaque in the middle was written with the big characters "World High City Litang". I was instantly awakened. Isn't this the city in the sky, Ding Zhen's hometown-Litang! Quickly pull Qi Xiaobao, who was still confused, out of the car and take a photo. Qi Xiaobao, who had had enough rest, was full of energy and got off the car and jumped! Hurry up and grab it. This is Litang at an altitude of 4014 meters! Hehe!
Just after entering the plateau, the altitude of 4000+ made Qi Dad, who was traveling with his children, really worried. It was difficult for the children to tell what happened at such an altitude. Everything was still put safety first, so we just passed through the city and did not make more stops in Litang County. In the past two years, Litang has become famous for its birth of Ding Zhen. Many young boys and girls have come here for this reason, which has brought great development to the Litang tourism market. In fact, Litang also has a more important historical figure, namely the Sixth Dalai Lama, Tsangyang Gyatso. The poems of this romantic poet always carry a touch of sadness, but it is the affectionate poem,"Peace in the world, and the Buddha in the world, and the Buddha in the future" that touched countless people. Heart.
Continuing along 318, the Litang River flows slowly, with green grass on both sides of the river and wild flowers blooming
He parked the car on the roadside and left Qi Ma, who was "happy to raise her head and rebel", in the car to breathe oxygen to continue his life. Qi's father took Qi Xiaobao to the river valley. The river with water has always been Qi Xiaobao's favorite. After listening to the river, I looked happy and took big strides! I have long forgotten the high altitude issue
After the plateau was tossed, he was obviously thin and dark. This time, I understood why there were no people who were too fat on the plateau. With this oxygen content, it would be good to be able to live a normal life, but it was unlikely that they were too fat.
The plateau scenery in Litang can be said to have no scenic spots, but there are attractions everywhere. There are beautiful scenery everywhere you can see, and you can see a large area on a random roadside. This is also the charm of 318. If you circle it with some scenery and collect tickets, there may be no world-famous 318 anymore.
318 After passing through the Wuliang River Wetland, there are flocks of cattle and horses, the river turns in nine twists, and the snowy mountains and peaks are looming in the distance. It is so beautiful on earth
Find a beautiful place to park your car, and the car will become a scenery
The wild flowers all over the mountains and fields here make Qi Ma, who is not good at dancing, start to dance
On the way, a snowy mountain not far away came into view. There was no grass growing in the village on this snowy mountain, which formed a great contrast with the green grassland next to it. Qi Dad thought to himself, this is Haizi Mountain!
After turning a few corners, the unique scenery of Haizi Mountain appeared in front of you. Haizi Mountain is located between Litang and Daocheng. It is named after the large number of sea seeds dotted on the mountain. The main peak, Guoyinri, is 5020 meters above sea level. There are as many as 1145 sea seeds. The most famous ones are these two sister lakes in front of you., also known as Lovers Lake, are like two blue tears on a snowy mountain.
Under the snowy peaks, for millions of years, they have leaned against each other, watched each other, never abandoned, and jointly protected this plateau. If you have just bid farewell to Litang and have not yet met Daocheng, when you pass through Haizi Mountain, the barren Haizi Mountain as far as you can see may make you sad. But when you turn the last bend, the closely interdependent Lover Lake appears in front of you, and you may rekindle hope for the way ahead! Meet love around the corner! Believe that the beauty that belongs to you will eventually meet you! Travel is like this, but isn't life?
Qi Ma's love is all in her hands! The mother and son faced their backs to the mountains and lakes that were like a fairyland and showed their love! When Qi Xiaobao grew up, he would often tell his parents I love you,"I love you!" These three words have also become the inherent routine of the little guy before going to bed every day. We always believe that if there is love, we will love, and knowing that love should be a required course in life. People with abundant hearts know to love themselves and also know to love others.
Qi Ma looks at the Lovers Sea under the afterglow of the sunset. The quiet and sacred atmosphere here calms people's hearts. The lake water is like a mirror, silently reflecting the snowy mountains, the sky, every cloud that passes by, and the passers-by like us.
Before sunset, we bid farewell to Haizi Mountain and Lover Lake, and continued our westward journey. We arrived at today's destination, Batang County, in the night. Like Yajiang, Batang belongs to the depression along the 318 route. At an altitude of about 2500 meters in Batang, it can be said that it is the most suitable place to rest after a day of busy plateau travel.
Batang County is the westernmost county under the jurisdiction of Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan. It borders Mangkang County in Changdu City, Tibet Autonomous Region. Arriving in Batang, we have also completed the journey of the 318 Western Sichuan Route. Western Sichuan is not Xizang, but it is better than Xizang. The beautiful scenery along the way has refreshed the soul, and we have lingering nostalgia along the way!
The next stop is to cross the Jinsha River and officially start the journey into Tibet.
