on the way

never ending

stop sometimes

Either be attracted by the beautiful scenery or be fascinated by girls


The road under your feet has been extending, and then everything is gradually included in your eyes


About Diesel, Rice, Oil and Salt

About

about worldly sinister


yes


everything is cute


The sky is so blue, the lake is so beautiful



From Lhasa to Jilong Port, about 755 kilometers, passing Shigatse, Jilong Town.


Still as before, choose a green leather train from Lhasa to Shigatse.

There may be many reasons for the complex of green leather trains.

At the train station," he looked out of the car and said, "I'm going to buy some oranges. You are right here, don't move around. "

It walks very slowly and can hold the beautiful scenery along the way.

It has an astonishingly large capacity, and you can hear the stories of a car and talk all the way.


 …

It takes less than three hours to travel from Lhasa Railway Station to Shigatse Station.

The weather is fine, and the light shines through the train windows and hits the body, and you can still feel a little hot.

The river valley landform along the way brings patches of lush greenery in the vast southwest desolation.

Tibetan houses built along the river

A few acres of grain fields developed along the water

Presumably, a long, long time ago, this was the Peach Blossom Spring described by Mr. Wuliu.

There is a regrettable beauty of the human landscape, which I call:


As far as the eye can see, the foot has not yet reached


Perhaps, there will be many, many trips to come again in the future.



Arrived in Shigatse in the warm afternoon sun.



This is just a transfer station between today and tomorrow, but it is on the plateau where night falls relatively late.

There is enough time left for us to finish all the things in the plan.

Take a bus, walk through a restored unknown chain bridge, find the bus station, and buy a bus ticket to Geelong Town, which takes nearly twelve hours the next day.


Then leisurely find a youth hostel to stay at night.



Perhaps it is because most of the tourists only use this place as a short-term stopover, and there are not many domestic tourists here, but a few foreigners are found bargaining with the merchants selling Buddhist beads on the street.

At the end of Xigezi Pedestrian Street is the largest temple in Shigatse, Tashilhunpo Monastery, one of the six major Yellow Sects in China.

During the tourist season, it is a paid tourist attraction for tourists. I heard that in winter, it is open to the public for free.

At that time, everyone was only at the gate of the temple, looking at its grandeur in the distance under the afterglow.

Later, when I recalled this monastery again, it was a dispute about relics after the death of an eminent monk that happened in this temple in the "Miaojiang Gu Shi" written by Nan Wu Kao Sha Li Kefo.


Directly opposite the monastery is a square


There are old people worshiping and children playing


And young people who gather together to drink and play card games



strange to say


After nightfall, although the streets were lit with neon lights, there were very few pedestrians except us.

It is a bit less noisy at night in the city, but the night on the plateau is also very enjoyable.


street lights on


The street bricks under the light radiate the morning cold of the plateau


before the sun rises


then quietly left



Get in the car and gradually move away from the sleeping city through buildings and low trees


into the desolation again

There is only one road extending


In the wilderness, at the foot of the Himalayas


Thank the sun for making the Himalayas so clear


Thanks to the heroes, they made the way here



In the lower part of the blue sky there are dark clouds and the water on the ground has not yet dried up


She must have secretly flashed the rain again



On the known road, things that have been heard for a long time are still a little fresh.


And on the way to the unknown, all the unknowns encountered are surprises.


higher mountain



blue eyes hidden in the sky



I don’t know how many more winding roads there are than the seventy-two turns



Staring out the car window through the bumpy road all day


There are wandering paintings rolling over it

No one in sight, no smoke

Only the blue sky, distant mountains, and houses


Maybe people went to herd cattle and sheep on the other side of the mountain



Arrived in Geelong Town in the evening


Geelong Town is located in the southern foothills of the Himalayas


Known as the "Back Garden of the Himalayas"


Since the earthquake in Nepal in 2015, the Zhangmu Port was forced to close, and the Gyirong Port, which passes through Gyirong Town and connects to Nepal, has become an important port connecting China and Nepal.


For this back garden, I just watched a Tibetan square dance in the square of the town


I ate a piece of hot pancake fruit


for its mystery and beauty


The future is promising!
