Notes before the strategy:
Toot! After a year, I, a pauper, came here again. The purpose of this trip was a place I had never tried before, the Northwest, so hilarious, so excited, especially the first time I set off alone, heading towards Departed from a place completely unknown to me all this time. Hahahahahaha, snake spirit disease!

A few words, it’s really hard to stick to one thing, especially a slacker without principles like me, but sticking to something you like is a kind of belief, just look at it ten years later and still remember it in your mind Recalling that I was young and crazy, it can be regarded as an indelible memory for myself. It’s like I have completely forgotten the memories of places like Hainan, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Xi’an, etc. I went to before, so vague that I forgot how I got there. Therefore, the travel notes I started after Henan Simei have kept me going until now, um, started Bar!

On 07.01, due to the epidemic, three of the four women who were scheduled to go together were canceled. After all, life-saving is the most important thing, haha, so I have no scruples, and I am a homeless person everywhere, so it doesn’t matter. It's been a long time to travel to the northwest, so on Weibo, Lin Li pulled two men and a woman to fight for a self-driving trip, and thus began this magical road trip. What is magic, because after this trip, you can see grasslands, Gobi, deserts, lakes, snow-capped mountains, and wild no-man's land. . . feel it first














07.02 The beautiful and flat-chested milk set off, hahaha, the plane at 7:30, due to the epidemic, the special price is 298 to Lanzhou. Plan to play for a day, and then gather with friends in Xining. Because I was afraid that I would oversleep, I was so excited that I rushed to the airport all night. There was no sign of being late. I arrived in Lanzhou at 12 o'clock. The weather was slightly cool, and then I went straight to the hotel near the train station. The accommodation was very cheap at 89 per night. All the accommodations in the trip are basically the cheapest I have stayed in, and then I ate a bowl of Lanzhou ramen, as shown in the picture, (share some common sense, there is no Lanzhou ramen in Lanzhou, they are all called XX beef noodles), hahahaha, two o'clock in the afternoon I visited the Gansu Museum with one of my friends, F for short. In fact, Lanzhou is really a place with no attractions. It’s like the feeling that we only have one friend in Fuzhou and can only take them to visit the Three Lanes and Seven Alleys hahaha. At the end of five o'clock, we walked around the mother river on foot. Then arrive at Zhongshan Bridge, take two photos of tourists, and then walk to Zhengning Road Night Market to eat local specialties for dinner, then ride a bicycle to see the night view of Zhongshan Bridge, take the bus back, summary: Lanzhou is really comparable to boring Fuzhou . Good night


The mother river - the Yellow River is still very spectacular



Lanzhou noodles? ? ?


Feeling is the only attraction VS night view


A very famous museum in Gansu, the Lanzhou driver recommended the must-visit Ma Ta Feiyan, and I was laughed at. .
On 07.03, the train arrived at 9:45 in the morning and arrived in two and a half hours. I haven’t taken the train for a long time. The memory of the last train is the 20-hour nightmare memory of going back to Fuzhou from Xi’an without a ticket. Looking back, now that the epidemic has caused the air ticket from Xi'an to Fuzhou to be the same price as the train ticket! ... Arrive in Xining and take the bus. Now the mobile phone is really convenient. You can directly scan the code on the mobile phone to take the bus in various places. In Lanzhou and Xining, you can directly scan the code and take the local bus directly. Arrived at the hotel near Mojia Street with Comrade F, and met with two other partners, referred to as D and G, the hotel took a short rest, and went to Mojia Street at 2 o’clock in the afternoon to eat the most unique yogurt, really good ( Well, I don’t know what the specialties of Northwest China are, anyway, I’m not used to eating mutton, so after the itinerary, basically the four of us are all looking for Sichuan food, it’s really TM for dinner). Then I wanted to take a stroll in Xining, but D told us with a blank face that he had inspected it, and all the temples were either renovated or closed, and then went to the Xining Museum. Well, coincidentally, they were being rebuilt and closed. So I turned around and went to the art gallery next door. I saw a lot of things that I still had impressions when I was young, and there were explanations. This is really good. I think many places should buy tickets or open free for places that understand local culture. Narrator, hahaha, the Mogao Grottoes in the itinerary to play later is very good. This is something. The time to pick up the car at 4 o'clock is approaching. We arrived at a certain car rental place and rented an SUV at 234 yuan per day. We started to go to the supermarket to buy dry food, snacks and water. We must get water. The Northwest is really too dry. Yes, although the weather is not hot, it is too dry. I am a southern girl and I am used to it. In the past, the skin of my lips and fingers were dry and cracked. Then we purchased several barrels of water and went to their night market at night. Since it was dark at half past nine in the northwest, we had an embarrassing Sichuan hotpot meal at six o’clock. After dinner every day, I felt like having afternoon tea again. I got to know each other briefly. I went back to the hotel to rest after eight o’clock, and tidied up after nine o’clock. I obviously felt that it was time to go to bed at ten o’clock. It's also dumbfounding, pack it up, and get ready to go, the picture above, oh yeah.

You must try the yogurt, it is very delicious

07.04 We agreed to leave at 8 o'clock every day, so we don't need to rush the itinerary, so we felt the first day when we went out on the Grand Ring Road, and regretted bringing a small suitcase because it was so cold. Twelve degrees during the day, only nine degrees at night, plus the wind is so strong, the whole thing is not in a good state. Wearing a white short skirt on the first day, um, something embarrassing happened, I was exposed! ! ! Thanks to my thick skin, otherwise it would be so good, hahahaha, I can’t laugh or cry when I think about it now, but fortunately Comrade F is more talkative, and thanks to this younger brother who is two years younger than me, he gave me and G a gentleman all the way. I took a lot of beautiful photos, and brother D who worked hard all the way and also worked as a driver, a taciturn and cold soldier brother, also talked and laughed to resolve my embarrassment. More than 2,500 kilometers away, the scenery along the way is infinitely good. In fact, the scenery of the Northwest Line is basically on the road, although half of the time on the road I slept hahahaha, back to the topic, the No. 4 planned route, the morning small ring road around Qinghai Lake-tea Kayan Lake, staying in Chaka Town, a few hours’ drive around Qinghai Lake, the largest saltwater lake in my country, with an area of ​​about 4,500 square kilometers; so it’s a day to go shopping, a bit like the Lugu Lake I went to, and go around A small circle, passing a rapeseed field and my favorite lavender field, it is really beautiful, I got off the car and took 500 photos! ! As shown in the picture, the cloak I bought temporarily was hot and took off again. I stopped and stopped to shoot all the way. I was so happy. In conclusion, Qinghai Lake is still very beautiful. We didn’t go to its most popular scenic spots, but chose to play around, and then in the afternoon Arrived in Chaka Town at 6:00, temporarily booked a hotel called Tianzhijing, and found the first Sichuan restaurant on this trip. After eating hungrily, we walked slowly back to the hotel. After changing our clothes, D said to take us for a drive to watch the sunset, so we arrived A windmill field with few vehicles started the road of this trip. As shown in the picture, the sunset is really beautiful. Thank you photographer F for taking these photos for me. I secretly praised in my heart: Fortunately, I still brought Lao Chen's SLR after being extremely entangled, hahaha. It was dark at 9:30, so I went back to tidy up and rest, the picture above


Qinghai Lake is so beautiful

On July 5th, the weather was still very cold when I got up early. Today I wore a dress I bought three years ago. When going to the Northwest, I must wear bright colors and I must bring sunscreen, body lotion, hand cream mask, band-aids, and a thermos cup of blood. Lesson learned, I found a breakfast shop with soy milk, steamed buns and dumplings. There is a big difference in diet between the north and the south, and I am not used to it. Start today’s itinerary with a bowl of soy milk. First go to Chaka Salt Lake-Emerald Lake-stay in Dachaidan, in the morning I went to Chaka Salt Lake, the place where Internet celebrities check in, and I took a battery car to go in. Because of the epidemic, there were few people. In addition, the weather was also good and the sun was big, so the tea card taken in the photo was still very beautiful, but it was a bit on the spot. It’s not satisfactory. Some scenic spots lost their original appearance after they were fired. Instead, the ones that don’t cost money are really more basic. (I don’t know what the meaning of this word is used correctly hahahaha). A group of people gathered around, spread paper, a group of people looked at it strangely, then left, and drove all the way to Emerald Lake at 4:00 pm, there is a beautiful yellow lake in the front section, It's really beautiful, sparsely populated and natural, as beautiful as a painting, and the crazy photo mode is turned on. As shown in the picture.





milk here



These shoes are really nice, but my feet hurt from wearing them. . .

It's really all original pictures, it's so beautiful! !




pass by



snow mountain


emerald lake


Then head to Emerald Lake. The viewing area of ​​Emerald Lake is not large. When we came, it was sunny and the color was indeed green like emerald. It is a very suitable place for taking pictures. Summary: Personally, I don’t think it’s worse than a tea card. I heard that it’s preparing to charge a fee. Let’s experience it before it’s free.



Does the background picture look fake hahahaha should wear big red clothes


Around 8 o’clock, I stayed at the Dachaidan People’s Hotel, which is the cheapest and favorite place to book a hotel. There is a row of places in the corridor dedicated to drying your clothes. Opposite the door is a very beautiful lake with the most beautiful curtains. As soon as you open it, you will be amazed by the beautiful mountain scenery outside. Look at the picture yourself.


Then Dachaidan is not big, it’s about the same as our Shangbaishi Town, (Thinking that if you have been living in a small city with the people you like, the pace is not fast, opening a small shop, and then doing what you like, is also very romantic, it’s better than a big city Busy and hard every day, go out early and return late every day hahahaha) After checking in, the four of them strolled around the town slowly, and finally found a Sichuan restaurant to have the first meal of the day. Why, because you are basically on the road and you can’t do it for lunch And specially looking for a place to eat, so remember to store dry food in the car, plus Sichuan cuisine is really easy to eat, and I have to envy my compatriots in Sichuan. After the wolf continued to devour, he went back to the hotel and sat waiting for the sunset. Then wash and sleep after half past nine, good night.

7.6, I also live in this hotel today, because today I have to walk around the small ring road of Dachaidan alone. Itinerary: National Highway 315-Dongtai Jier Lake-Nanbaxian Yadan Landform, still the old rules, ready to go at 8 o'clock in the morning, eat After buying a delicious steamed bun and soy milk fritters, we set off. This trip to the northwest is really worthwhile. What you see and hear will make you feel refreshed. When you arrive at Jill Lake, you are still surprised. Really It’s so beautiful. The scenery of Sanya and Yunnan used to be beautiful, but this lake is really beautiful, and I don’t want to leave at all. Hahahaha, I finally left reluctantly. I stopped and took pictures at the Yadan landform along the way, and went back directly at night. When we arrived at Dachaidan, we had Sichuan cuisine for dinner, which was really delicious, hahaha, then we visited the town and went back to the hotel to rest. above picture



I've started posting photos in a mess



Crazy parking to take pictures, so there have been notices and tickets issued in the past few days. If the road is not familiar, it is easy to be ticketed, so please be careful



It's really spectacular, remember to wear red clothes



315 must take the national highway, a place that does not need beauty at all

Yardang landform scenery

7.7, Depart at 8 o'clock, go to the oil town - Crescent Moon Spring in Dunhuang, arrive at Crescent Moon Spring at noon, and eat a fair instant noodle meal in the scenic spot, hahaha, and then this scenic spot is the place I have always wanted to come. After playing , only to find that it is not worth a visit, it is a place for taking photos, a place where movies have been filmed has been developed, and after it is done within an hour, I will go to Crescent Lake. This journey is the hardest, and it takes five or six to drive. Hours, so when we arrived at the hotel, Comrade D was already looking hopeless, and then we had a short rest. The four of us decided to go to Crescent Lake to ride a camel. The ticket is 100, valid for 2 days. When we go in, we will go directly to the hotel I went to the place where the camels are, and I feel that the camels are so pitiful. They are so tired every day, but they are really smelly, and they are pulled while walking. Halfway through, a group of people had to stop to take pictures. (Twenty yuan for one photo) was really exhausting. It was too hot, and the sun was still around 6 o'clock in the afternoon. The one-hour camel ride was spent in an extremely bad experience. When I got off the camel, my butt really hurt (it was bruised the next day) I was tired and I didn’t love it, hahaha, Mr. Camel. Moving on, I saw the Crescent Moon Spring at the bottom. It was amazing. In the desert, there was a spring in the shape of a moon. It was so beautiful. The Mingsha Mountain and the Crescent Moon Spring at night were the biggest highlights. After a quick glance, I decided to come back tomorrow, because we booked the performance at Dunhuang at 8 o’clock. The price is 298. Personally, I think it is too expensive. Speaking of expensive, this performance is completely different from the previous one. One and a half After an hour, I felt very shocked, and the actors were also very professional. As for the plot, it generally talked about the historical changes of Dunhuang. Then, at 9:30 in the evening, when the sky was still bright, everyone laughed. I drove to Dunhuang Night Market at 10 o’clock. After all the way, I finally felt that I had come to a big city. Hahaha, Dunhuang Night Market is considered, I think among many night markets The food is quite delicious, and it is also a place that is more in line with the local taste. After each finds his favorite food, he returns to the hotel to rest at 11 o'clock. The hotel accommodation is also very cheap, 60 a night, wash and wash , two o'clock in the morning, sleep.


If you don't pretend at this time, when will you wait? ?




I forgot to borrow this one, what a pity

Wild camels on the national road



07.08, departure at 10:00 today, the destination, the long-awaited Mogao Grottoes, the ticket has to be booked on the official website a few days in advance, if you buy it on the day, you can’t buy it, because the time of the session and the number of people are limited, the ticket price is 258, although it is expensive Point, but it includes the explanation and the bus of the past scenic spots. I personally think that this point is really good. I remember the last time I went to the Longmen Grottoes with Caihong Sanmei. There was no explanation at that time, and I didn’t understand anything. Going around, I think that the explanations of the scenic spots can be included automatically, and you don’t need to ask everyone’s opinions. For example, the Xi’an City Wall and Terracotta Warriors and Horses I have been to are not orderly at all, and people are crowded, so I just saw the scenery. The introduction of Thousand Buddha Caves was first built in the pre-Qin period of the Sixteen Kingdoms. After the construction of the Sixteen Kingdoms, Northern Dynasties, Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties, Xixia, Yuan and other dynasties, it has formed a huge scale, with 735 caves and 45,000 murals. Square meters and 2,415 clay colored sculptures, it is the largest and richest Buddhist art site in the world. Then we saw the big caves of several scenic spots, many of which were all sealed with door locks, and then in order to protect The cultural relics do not have any lamps inside, and they are also very dark, and many of them are oxidized. There are several Buddhist caves that are really worth listening to and seeing. The most shocking ones are the reclining Buddha (still under repair) and the big statue Buddha. So powerful, after an hour of explanation, free activities, after taking a few crazy photos, on the way back, (I found a new hotel) I had the last lunch of this trip nearby, I was really hungry, it was still Sichuan cuisine, Hahaha, at 6 o'clock, I went back to rest for more than an hour, and set off to Crescent Moon Spring at 7 o'clock to watch the sunset and night view and the starry sky. When climbing the high slope of the desert, I should not be too tired. It was sunset, it was 21 o'clock in the evening, the sky was still bright, and then I took a few photos of the sunset, and sat quietly waiting for the sun to set. Although many people were waiting for the sunset together, they thought in their hearts, Angel Amelie That line: It should be a good day and beautiful scenery in vain, let alone tell anyone. So hypocritically chanted a sentence to the invisible user, "I will wait until I meet you" ------- dividing line. It was very cool at night, and the wind was cool, so I sat quietly until night fell, and then we went down the mountain together, joking and joking, and went back to the city, and once again visited the Dunhuang Night Market for supper, four people from southeast, northwest It also changed from the unfamiliar and awkward sitting together at the beginning to become more natural and familiar. I went back to the hotel after twelve o'clock, took photos, and rested. Good night, Dunhuang.



The above is the original appearance and the bottom is restored. Each cave has a locked door.





This seven-story pagoda must be photographed by tourists


Thank you, Mr. Camel, who came back from carrying the guests, and less shit, especially when I'm sitting on it.



The food in Dunhuang Night Market is still delicious, and there are many people. It is very lively. It feels like I have finally met a big d city along the way.



In fact, I don’t seem to be very particular about what to eat when I’m traveling hahaha I’m really not used to the food in some places

See also the Dunhuang Theater, worth a visit, a must-see on this trip

On 7.9, I woke up, dressed up, put on various sunscreens, went to Zhangye, and passed through Jiayuguan. Only D bought a ticket (100) and went in for a walk. The remaining three we walked around and finished shopping in about an hour. Personally, I don’t have much interest in this scenic spot hahaha. I stayed in Colorful Danxia Town after 5:00 pm. It seems that the atmosphere of fireworks in many places is due to the existence of a scenic spot. The food, drink, housing and transportation of a small town depend on such a scenic spot. After a short rest, I found a Sichuan restaurant for dinner. Hahahahahaha, the whole process is old Sichuan cuisine, and then the owner of the shop told us to take a walk around the small town, and we can see the beautiful colorful Danxia scenery at the back mountain, and then we came all the way with few people , The environment is good, you can make a background picture with just a shot, climb to the back mountain and wait quietly until the sun sets, no wonder so many people like fishing, watching things in slow motion is also good for meditation, not much to say , above

Portrait photos are indispensable, dressing up and making up every day, how can we not take pictures hahahaha



I forgot who this statue is

I met a 60-plus aunt and uncle riding a bicycle on the loop line. After chatting for a while, I really admired you. Sure enough, your uncle is still your uncle.


There are sixty-one hotels to stay in, it’s super cheap, and they also provide breakfast and a big bag of red dates


small town scenery



Seeing the sunset again, a beautiful town



The local specialty apricot is delicious, but the express delivery is a bit expensive. My colleague D bought it for 150 yuan, and the express fee was 150 yuan, hahaha

7.10 In the morning, the old rules, depart at 8 o'clock, go to the Colorful Danxia Scenic Spot, the ticket price is 74 (including the bus inside), which is also considered authentic, the scenic spot is really not as amazing as the picture, nor is it as colorful as seen in other people's travel notes. It may be because we went to the mountains again at noon! I heard that it will be very beautiful in the evening, and the colors will be more distinct. After the tourist-style sightseeing tour, drive all the way to Zhuoer Mountain, pass through the Qilian Prairie, and see the cattle and sheep in Shantou. I really want to know their owners. Hahaha, the places we pass are all beautiful. Finally, when we arrive at Menyuan Rapeseed Flowers, we have never seen such a large area of ​​rapeseed flowers. It is really pleasing to the eye, and we will start the crazy photo mode! Finally, head west all the way and drive back to the original place. (PS: I experienced the longest urination in my life, and I felt like my whole body was about to collapse.) Back to the hotel, I have stayed in the most rubbish hotel of this trip. It was really the worst few hours of this trip. Looking back on it now, I’m still angry, hum?, the picture is still up, good night Xining.





The effect of mobile phone VS SLR





I need someone to take a portrait today hahaha




The scenery outside the car window, the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep




The rapeseed flowers in Menyuan are really famous for their beauty



Take 500 shots like crazy, yeah







scenery on the road



like a set



The effect of mobile phone SLR is still much worse y, especially for shooting scenes, so I take SLR suggestions with me. Little F taught me how to use SLR, but I forgot again. I am old and can’t afford to hurt


On 7.11, the weather was cloudy, drizzling, and a little cold. I set off at 10 o'clock and headed to Xining Kumbum Monastery. This may be the most disappointing scenic spot of my trip. The ticket check entrance car and pedestrians are in a mess, and then every time after entering There are cars parked in this solemn place. Listening to the explanation, there is everything here. Many people have been here all their lives. They have indeed seen companies, nursing homes, and schools. Hahahaha, they seem to be isolated from the world, although the impression is not Very good, but I also browsed it very seriously, and worshiped it super devoutly. After all, my sister is also a Buddhist. Finally, I left in a hurry and arrived in the urban area at two o’clock in the afternoon. I ate a bowl of yogurt with Little G at the very beginning. It’s pretty good, I’m afraid of the cold and embarrassing, so most of them, I will really find a topic in a noisy way to prevent the air from suddenly being quiet hahahaha, then take a private car to the airport, post a few sentimental Moments, and the trip is over. D who drives hard, F who takes pictures, and G who is a cute girl. Nice to meet you, thank you for your hard work. Finally, the picture above.

Well, goodbye by fate, my Great Northwest.

Accommodation + round-trip air tickets + food + scenic spot tickets + car rental, refueling and crossing fees, etc., totaling around 4200
At 12:45 on July 24, 2020, I finally finished writing things down. The main thing is that there are too many photos this time. The Qinggan line is really worth going. It’s really beautiful. I don’t know the Sichuan-Tibet line When you have the opportunity to go.
If my life can only be like this, then I am willing to be like this.
The next stop, the three northeastern provinces, is to be determined.
