West Queen Mother Yaochi is a natural alpine flat lake, 4,300 meters above sea level, full of mystery. The water of the lake is sparkling, emerald green as dyed, clear and translucent. There are many water birds, flying on the lake or playing in the water. The lakeside is rich in water and grass, and the rare birds play together, which is a joy to watch.

Legend has it that every year on the third day of the third month, the sixth day of the sixth month and the eighth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the Queen Mother of the West specially holds a peach festival here. "King Mu interpreted the Queen Mother of the West's "Biography of the Son of Heaven" on the Yaochi on the side of Kunlun."

Few people know about the Queen Mother's Yaochi, and the Pinghu Lake on the plateau is a unique painting. There is already a smooth road to reach, and Kunlun, Qinghai has its own family. Searching the Internet and asking travel agencies, there is very little information about the scenic spot of the Queen Mother Yaochi. The teacher drove with a motorcade to enjoy the wonderful scenery. Share it with those who are destined. We look forward to your visit!

Except that the road is a washboard road, it is 110 kilometers from Nachitai, and the scenery is infinitely beautiful. . .

The second time I went to Golmud, I still drove to West Queen Mother Yaochi with the mentality of trying, thinking that if I got to Washboard Road, I would not go in, and the car conditions did not allow it. As a result, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the whole road has been repaired, and I drove all the way to the lake. The lake is the end of the road, but the scenic spot facilities by the lake are still under construction, so no tickets are required. After entering the Wuji Dragon and Phoenix Palace, the road ends at the end, and the entire large area should be built into a huge geological park. Along the way, you can see donkeys, antelopes, Tibetan foxes, gophers and other wild animals. The best thing is the magnificent and vast scenery along the way. Beside the flat winding road are the Kunlun Mountains, snow-capped mountains, and rivers with thousands of ravines. There is an absolute no-man's land, and there are viewing platforms of Yuxu Peak and Bison Valley Braided River. Stopping the car, there is only the sound of gurgling water, it is very quiet, and it feels like one person has contracted all the beautiful scenery here. Don't drive too fast, because you may encounter gophers crossing the road, and you won't see it if you don't pay attention. Few people know about this place, and it is relatively primitive, so there is no scene of rubbish on the roadside. When I went to Hoh Xil last year, there was so much rubbish on both sides of the road, it was terrible! Therefore, we must cherish every beauty of nature, put the garbage in the bag, don't throw it away casually, and don't leave anything but it.

Erlang Cave in Tianjun County, West Mongolian and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, China, is the famous Stone Chamber of the Queen Mother of the West. Erlang Cave is the site of the late West Queen Mother Kingdom, while the early West Queen Mother Stone Chamber is in Zongjiagou at the foot of Riyue Mountain in Huangyuan County. To explain this problem, we must first examine it from the historical environment of the Queen Mother of the West. In ancient times, the Queen Mother of the West had a very close relationship with the Central Plains, such as "During the time of the Yellow Emperor, the Queen Mother of the West rode a white deer to present a white ring." "Yao enshrined Dushan and saw the Queen Mother in the west". "Shun inherited the virtues of heaven from Yao, and the Queen Mother of the West presented white jade tubes", etc., because it is difficult to clearly distinguish them from historical facts and myths, so let's not talk about them for the time being. From the inscriptions of the Yin Ruins where "Ximu" appeared frequently, to the historical facts of the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West clearly recorded in "Bamboo Book Chronicles", "Historical Records", "Hanshu" and other letters and history, there is at least 3,000 years in between. In such a long historical period, the Queen Mother of the West lived in only one stone room, that is, the Erlang Cave in Tianjun County. I am afraid that the Erlang Cave has been sat through, right? The Queen Mother of the West is a nomadic and agricultural monarch, and her rule is very large. . As usual, all the kings of nomadic kingdoms have to patrol the four directions and govern the country in reincarnation, and the Queen Mother of the West is no exception. This is also the national condition of her rule. Secondly, the West Queen Mother Kingdom is a large country on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau dominated by the Qiang people. During its heyday, its jurisdiction included today’s Qinghai, Gansu, northwestern Sichuan, and the upper reaches of the Weihe River in Shaanxi. Its economic and political center is the “Three Rivers” pointed out by historians. That is, the upper reaches of the Yellow River, the Huangshui River, and the Datong River Basin. The Qiang people lived and multiplied in the above areas for the longest time. Therefore, the representative of the Qiang culture, that is, the Kayue culture, which in my opinion is the culture of the Xiwangmu Kingdom, is concentrated in the tombs of Datong, Xining, Huangzhong, Xunhua and other places. It can be used as evidence of the central area of Qiang people's activities in the heyday. The top-level culture unearthed in the tomb of Dahua Kayue in Huangyuan proves that the political center of the West Queen Mother Kingdom is in Huangyuan, and the Zongjiagou Stone Cave Group, which is only more than ten kilometers away from Dahua, is the West Queen Mother stone chamber of this period. Due to the vast territory and strong national power of the Queen Mother of the West, the Central Plains dynasty attached great importance to the relationship with this big western country, and cultural, political, and economic exchanges occurred continuously. For example, King Mu of Zhou traveled thousands of miles to meet the Queen Mother of the West. And "enjoying and forgetting to return", it's not that people today are only interested in the beauty of the Queen Mother of the West. King Mu of Zhou was "unhappy with courtiers and concubines", and his harem was full of beauties. So not here. He came to the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West to engage in a united front in order to attack the Dog Army and relieve the threat of the Dog Army to the Zhou Dynasty. "Happy and forgetting to return" is because he was fascinated by the beautiful, mysterious and vast natural landscape of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the richness of all things in the Kunlun Mountains. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the relationship between the Central Plains Dynasty and the Queen Mother of the West underwent major changes. First, there was the rise of the Qin State, attacking everywhere, opening up borders and expanding land, Qin Xiangong’s soldiers approached Weishou, and the Qiang people moved westward. At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, Huo Qubing conquered Hexi, Zhao Chongguo Hehuang garrisoned fields, and the power of the Qiang people gradually moved to Sanhe and the sun and the moon Shanxi moved again, and it was at this period that the political center of the Qiang people moved to the Qinghai Lake area, and there was the West Queen Mother's Stone Chamber in Erlang Cave.
