Topic Picture 1: Take a picture of Tianchi Lake
Title Picture 2: Wonderland Tianchi
On September 22, 2009, in the afternoon we will return to Shanghai after our trip to Xinjiang. In the morning of the same day, we set off from Urumqi again, and went to Tianshan Tianchi, a 5A-level scenic spot 120 kilometers away.
Tianchi was called "Yaochi" in ancient times. It is said that the Queen Mother of China and the West hosted King Mu of Zhou. Li Shangyin, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, once wrote a poem: "The window of the mother of Yaochi is open, and the singing of yellow bamboo is moving to mourn. Eight horses travel 30,000 miles a day. Do not repeat". It is said that the heaven and earth are the silver mirror on the dressing table of the Queen Mother of the West, and the bathing pool of the Queen Mother of the West. The natural scenery of Tianchi in Tianchi is like a layer of mystery. It is an excellent summer resort with beautiful mountains and clear waters, refreshing and pleasant. Visitors can climb high mountains and get out of dense forests, overlooking the panorama of the world, and can also go boating and crossing in the vast blue waters of the lake, enjoying the scenery of the lake and mountains. It's like a poem!
After entering the gate, after walking for an hour, the mountain is steeper and the water is more violent! The snow water from the Tianshan Mountains poured down like a white chain. Follow the mountain stream and walk along the steep slope for a while to a big waterfall! This waterfall hangs in the air in vain, flying down, thousands of horses galloping, coaxing but indecisive! When the waterfall splashes, the spray and smog are blurred. Under the sunlight, small rainbows across the banks of the mountain stream will appear, forming a strange rainbow spectacle at the bottom of the earth and valley! The thick and thick water drops are like drizzle, washing the rocks, moss, flowers, plants and trees on both sides. This waterfall is called: Xuanhu Flying Waterfall. An ancient poem proves this: "The spring of pearls hangs in the air, and the silver chain hangs high in the fog.
Climbing up a few more steps, here is another scene. Above the majestic rainbow waterfall, there is a bay of clear water, bottomless, calm like a bronze mirror. The source of the waterfall turned out to be the East Xiaotianchi. How could it have been imagined that the surging waterfall just now would be created by such a calm and clear water pouring down?
A few minutes' walk from Xiaotianchi, you will arrive at today's main scene: Tianshan Tianchi. Beside Tianchi, you can see Bogda Snow Mountain at a glance. There is thick snow on the mountain.
Climbing up the mountain road, the mountain road is winding and winding, accompanied by a rushing stream, which is the water from Tianchi. The crystal-clear stream sparks snow-white waves when it hits the rocks, giving you a fresh scent. Along the way, there are green mountains and grasslands on one side, and valleys and mountain springs on the other side. At the beginning, they will pile up, and gradually they will become rolling, and then they will continue to roll!
In the early 1970s, Guo Moruo accompanied Prince Norodom Sihanouk on a tour, and recited the poem "a pool of thick ink sinks on the bottom of the inkstone, and ten thousand trees with long hairs stand upright" by the lake.
Most of the rumors on the Internet are "a pool of thick ink sinks on the bottom of the inkstone, and ten thousand trees grow up to the end of the pen". Originally, it would be fine to quote it, but I was curious to know the source, and found an interesting post (attached to the post), so I believed in "Sheng Yandi" instead of "Shen Yandi", because I feel that the former is more comfortable to read. As for which one is Mr. Guo's original intention, I really don't want to bother and have the ability to find out.
A pool of clear water is quiet and quiet, and against the background of the snow-capped mountains in the distance, it really feels a bit fairy-like.
Tianshan Tianchi is a famous lake in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China. It is located 100 kilometers northeast of Urumqi, on the northern slope of Bogda Peak. The lake is 1910 meters above sea level, 3.5 kilometers long from north to south, 0.8-1.5 kilometers wide from east to west, and the deepest part is 103 meters. Surrounded by spruces by the lake, and shining with snow-capped peaks, it is very spectacular and is a famous summer resort and tourist resort. The Sangong River flowing out of Tianchi Lake is the main irrigation water source for agriculture and animal husbandry in Fukang County at the foot of the mountain.
Bogda Peak in Tianshan Mountain is 5,445 meters above sea level, covered with snow all year round and glaciers stretching. Tianchi is located in the upper reaches of Sangong River on the northern slope of Tianshan Mountain, with an altitude of more than 1900 meters. According to different altitudes, it can be divided into glacial snow belt, alpine subalpine belt, mountain coniferous forest belt and low mountain belt. In 2007, Tianshan Tianchi was rated as a national 5A-level tourist attraction by the National Tourism Administration and a national geological park by the Ministry of Land and Resources.
Tianshan Tianchi Scenic Area is centered on alpine lakes, with snow peaks reflected and surrounded by spruces. Tianchi Lake is nearly 100 meters deep, clear and pleasant, with clear water, picturesque scenery and charming scenery, as if entering a fairyland! Unfortunately, traveling with a tour group, the time is too tight, so I can only watch the flowers on horseback.
The beauty of Tianchi Lake is different from the beauty of the south of the Yangtze River. It not only allows you to enjoy the wonderful scenery, but also allows you to fully experience "there are four seasons in a day, and the sky is different for ten miles". As the saying goes, "wear jacket in the morning and gauze in the afternoon". This is the difference between Tianshan Tianchi and other scenery.
I wore thick clothes at 9 o'clock in the morning, and two hours later, I was sweating profusely. It was unbearably hot at noon, so I had to change into summer clothes and wear thick clothes on my back. This is the Tianchi Lake on the Tianshan Mountains in Xinjiang.
