蒙孟涵旅行的目的是什么？简单的游山玩水？还是试图摆脱固有的陈旧环境，到一个完全陌生的城市无拘无束的松懈自己？又或是天马行空，嬉逐人间，纵情于湖光山色中映照内心？我不知道，每个人都应该拥有一个属于自己的答案。但我想，旅行应该是苦乐喜悲并举的。当我们处处防备围墙重重徘徊处，远方行人狭路相逢却不吝暖人笑意；当我们张开双手敞开怀抱投递每一个微笑时，陌生人剖心相照怀抱亦可如兄弟亲密。我想，这大概就是旅行的意义，消除偏见，发现自我，丰富人生。所有帖子已经更新完毕3楼河内篇29楼 芽庄篇621楼大叻篇 我的越南行——我一定会怀念这一路，自由短暂却彻底。 鸣谢 行在越南网 友情提供的旅游景区攻略资料。十一假期我该去哪里？ 从没有踏出过国门，一直想去到一个完全不能用汉语的地方，想体验那种不一样的生活，独自。这次我听了同事的建议去一趟芽庄享受一下沙滩、潜水、美味海鲜也是及好的。越南是一个超级适合度假的地方，海岸线狭长，海鲜、潜水、海景房样样都有，样样便宜，中国人去玩完全没有压力。越南还是个快乐的国度，完全没有新闻里说的那么穷，人们不会过于追求金钱，而是选择舒服地活着。很容易就被越南人乐观的情绪所感染。越南每个旅游城市都有自己的特点，一路下来，完全不会审美疲劳。河内街头的电车美女与美食，让你眼睛和舌头上天堂；芽庄是潜水的圣地，还有洗黑泥的妹纸和海鲜；大叻像阿尔卑斯山下的小镇，红墙绿瓦、咖啡飘香。。。乘坐到达河内大巴车到达友谊关，在友谊关，给边防武警递上自己的护照，他职业性地微笑一下，盖个戳，然后放行。办理了出境之后，我就算真正地离开了祖国，跟随人流进入了越南边防的小房子，大家都挤成了一团，每个人都在护照里夹了10块钱递进办入境的窗口（据说不夹钱，护照就会被扔到一边，没人管），没有零钱给他一张100居然只找了我88块钱。。奶奶的多收了2块钱小费，算了到了人家地盘上乖乖的，只希望护照快点出来。大概等了10来分钟，就会有越南长官拿着一叠护照挨个念名字，不过发音确实很蛋疼，念到名字的人拿上护照就算入境了，没听清的人也不用着急，他会再念第二遍。友谊关可以换到全世界最高的汇率 1元RMB=3400越南盾，熬了30年，终于成了百万富翁…… 抵达河内，在三十六行街（背包客比较多的商业街）随便找了个酒店住下来，酒店到处都是，价格也便宜，双人间基本上就是15-20美元一天，摩托车一天大概要7美金。由于历史原因语言交流出现了严重的障碍，可爱的越南妹子说的英格力斯我完全的不懂，没办法只好使用必杀技“国际手语”她完全的明白，OK！住了房，租了摩托，问好路~出发！河内的天气和8月的北京差不多，一样那么闷热，身体虽然遭罪，但眼睛却很享福，因为每个人都穿得那么性感 ，一到还剑湖，立马感受到这里的生活节奏是如此的安逸，每个人都慢悠悠地活着，街边游走着不少卖美食的小贩，还有不少美女悠闲地骑着摩托车，我想我来对地方了。第一次到越南，对什么东西都充满了新鲜感，特别是对河内的妹纸，她们面容娇好、身材苗条，打扮时尚。河内留给我的两个印象：美女多、摩托车多，当这两者结合起来：很多美女骑着摩托车在你身边来来往往，这场景，光是想想都会让人流口水。 河内的摩托车确实多，大街小巷全是，今天一天看到的摩托车，比过去十年还多，都说重庆生产的力帆摩托车都卖给了越南，看来，还真是这样的。 不多拍点摩托美女 怎么能对得起看帖子的劳苦大众~虽然是大清早，但依然不时有漂亮的妹纸来让你眼前一亮，特别是她们骑摩托车的样子让你有种想变成摩托车的冲动。 本以为对面那个甜美系的妹纸是越南人，一搭讪才发现是日本人，顿时兴趣大减，要看漂亮日本妹纸在家就可以了，根本用不着跑到越南来。 沿着还剑湖由北走到南，就是越南国家历史博物馆，了解一个国家，至少要知晓一些它的历史；了解一个国家的历史，博物馆是个好去处。越南历史博物馆建于1932年，主体部分是一座三层黄色的建筑物，有着八角攒尖的顶和仿木结构的斗拱和瓦檐，也有向外突出的欧式阳台，汇集了东西方不同的建筑风格。占婆时期的青铜鼓、新石器时期的陶器 、占婆时期的青铜器 、阮朝时期的瓷器 、前黎朝的木佛像 、阮朝时期的书籍，未被法国占领之前，越南一直在使用汉字 。沿路上很多城管车，都是用喇叭喊，大概的意思也就是禁止占道之类的，但是每个人都荷枪实弹有点让路人打怵的。突然有个想法：不知道与我们国内的城管PK一下 会是什么结果呢？圣约瑟夫大教堂，第一感觉就是很眼熟，原来这就是巴黎圣母院的缩小版，建于1886年。看来法国人在越南殖民时期还是狠下了血本的。黑白斑驳的墙面充满了历史感，应该说这里是河内最美的建筑了，教堂的大门只有在举办弥撒时才会打开，其余的时间，游客要从侧面进，侧门位于面对教堂左侧的小巷内。 骑着摩托的确很快，按照地图的示，本来要去文庙的，却误打误撞的走进战争博物馆，既来之则游之，买票进场！讲解员妹纸慷慨激昂的诉说着越南人民是如何用智慧击败美帝国主义，一幅幅图片、一片片残骸仿佛在给人们还原那一段刻骨铭心的侵略战争。胡爷爷纪念堂威严的耸立在市中心，他老人家不在家，据说是到俄罗斯度假去了~纪念堂门口站的兵是我见过的所有越南士兵当众最板正的。。。 面对纪念馆的右手边是主席府（法国统治期间的总督府），胡志明曾经在里面办公生活，后来感觉太过奢侈，便搬到了旁边的小院 面对纪念馆的左手边就是独柱寺了，独柱寺经常被作为越南的志被建在在世界各地的世界公园里，原寺1954年法国撤军时被炸毁，仅存石柱。1955年在原址依原样重建，但规模小于原建。河内游荡的一天里在路边、巷子边看到了很多寺庙，烧香拜佛的僧众还真不少，香火鼎盛，愿佛祖保佑他们！阿门~哈利路亚！途中遇到一个公园，我也小清新一下，坐在公园一角欣赏越南人民的业余生活，街舞、健美操、羽毛球、足球充斥其中。看着他们打球我手就痒了起来，忍不住下场与越南人民进行了一场羽毛球友谊赛，中越混双VS美越男双！感动不是战胜对手的那一刻，到一个地方感受当地的文化气息，简单的几句英语交流，与无国界的运动交织在一起，得此机遇我愿足矣。。。。返回酒店途中，再遇河内的摩托大军，开始骑的不是很快总是害怕被车撞一直让车，后来才知道越南的司机技术都超好，他们会躲着你的。 夜晚的河内非常热闹，老外、小吃、美女、酒吧。。。越南人喜欢喝喝啤酒，找个四通八达的路口，几根小板凳，喝一口酒，就一口菜，眼睛也不忘给来来往往的妹纸行个注目礼。老外们则光顾一些有情调雅致的酒吧咖啡吧。各种现榨水果汁儿，我最喜欢甘蔗和芒果汁，超级爽！晚饭很是奢侈，足足花了我15万大洋，不过这不是重点！吃饭中对面偶遇一日本人，连比划带说算是认识了，这家伙倒是很客气，不过咱的革命立场不能变啊，最后哥用纯正的东北话对他重申钓鱼岛是我们中国的...他点头表示认同河内总结篇： 住：还剑湖北边的三十六行街即老街区有很多旅馆，-不等，住这里有几个好处，首先是热闹，出门就是各式各样的小商店；其次这里是旅行社、参观、网吧云集的地方，要参各团、吃个饭什么的方便；再次，这里离景区都比较近，方便步行参观。 吃：在越南一般就吃米粉pho ，炒饭com，春卷cha gio，我们一般都在三十六行街的路边摊解决的，一般，一碗牛肉粉20.000D的样子，有的hotel楼下有cafe，吃过一次类似盖浇饭样的东西30.000D，试过一次“中国式烧烤”，鸡翅10.000D一串还说得过去，香菇也10.000D一串！喝的除了碳酸饮料和鲜啤酒还有果汁，强烈推荐芒果汁和甘蔗汁，越南的芒果甘蔗很甜，一般10.000D~20.000D一杯，试下当地啤酒也不错，没什么酒味，我很喜欢，一般8.000D一杯。 玩：河内的景点主要分布在还剑区和巴亭区，步行一天基本上可以看完。瞻仰胡志明墓，参观胡志明故居和独柱寺，然后去文庙，参观军事博物馆、历史博物馆、和大教堂。喜欢买东西的可以逛逛三十六行街。河内这些景点的票价都很便宜，一般都在RMB10以下。 行：摩托车出租（150，000D/天），腿脚好的步行参观也可以，因为市区其实没有多大，而且不用担心停车的问，走到哪都可以停下来拍照或者买东西。芽庄篇根据行程 我们在芽庄逗留3日，在芽庄的时光是我感觉到最舒服的，蓝天、海滩、潜水、四岛游、泥巴浴、占婆塔...童鞋们跟着我的图片尽情游荡在美丽的芽庄小镇到达芽庄已经是傍晚，这里的第一顿必须是海鲜啊，龙虾超便宜每公斤大概20~25万，合人民币60元。([]

There are many like-minded asking me about it. I now present this thread to briefly tell everybody about my journey.The starting point of this traverse was from the highest peak of the western part of the Tibetan plateau, Jieshan Daban, and the day was April 20, 2010.I was heading eastward passing Bungdag Co, Yanghu Co, Rola Co, and Kangzhagri Mountain, which crossed over the desolate region from west to east. The journey continued northward to enter the unpopulated area of Altun Mountains, through Hoh Xil Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Whale lake, ..., finally met some people by the Aqqikkol Hu and then arrived in Huatugou by vehicle three days later and that day was July 5. It had been 77 days in total. I had been all alone 74 days after leaving Jieshan Daban until arriving inAqqikkol Hu, which was about 1400km and about four months.[The Great Chang Tang] In Tibetan, "Chang Tang" means northern empty wilderness while narrowly, means unpopulated region in northern part of Tibet. However, it actually indiCATes all of the no man's land in northern. The great Chang Tang includes desolate places in Northern Tibet, Hoh Xil, Alun Mountains, and Kunlun Mountains, which are interconnected to form the unique and super empty wilderness in the world. Only because Hoh Xil is the most known name, most people just think this vast land is equivalent to Hoh Xil. In reality, Hoh Xil is only a small piece of the Great Chang Tang both administratively and geologically. The Great Chang Tang, the last land to chase your freedom and dream.The route that I traversed ForeplayI arrived in Tibet in the early March, a couple of troubles bothered me. The brand new plug got its positive and negative wrongly connected; the rivets of my rucksack eASIly got broken from now and again; and a multi-functional charger got damaged and so on. Riding my bike to Ngari for warming up of this journey, lost my rucksack but later got it back; lost my camera bag and got it back later again, and finally lost a big bicycle pannier in the street of Gyangze town under the eyes of police, including clothes, solar panel and so on.Without much choice, I returned to Lhasa to adjust all the stuff I would need in the wilderness. Then I begged some luck by going to Nyingchi to enjoy the blossoms of peach trees and to take a hot spring bath. I even had the privilege to enjoy time with ten girls in the hot spring. I felt my bad luck had all gone and then returned to Lhasa again to prepare going to Ngari. I did not expect that I was cheated on by some hustler and lost some money and delayed my schedule for a week. I had to find a car myself quickly to Nagri. However, I lost the tool for fast-parting my rear wheel on my way to Nagri, where was a remote area in Tibet and nowhere to buy the tool. Even if there was one in Lhasa it would take at least ten days for a special delivery service. I was lucky that my mate Duola asked a driver to bring the tool for me from Lhasa. I thought there should be no more nightmare like this but the nozzle of my brand new multi-fuel stove was broken. The next day I tried everywhere to weld them back together. The first three shops could not do the welding for copper. The fourth one said they could do it but could not guarantee a sUCCess. The engineer said it would be ten Chinese yuans if it was a success. I agreed. Just in seconds, my nozzle became crap in a flash of lightening. I was so upset. Again, Duola helped me by bringing her own MSR oil stove and Dingding's sleeping bag to Nagri. That was already April 16 and I did not have much time to waste. The following day I found a vehicle heading to Jieshan Daban.The sand storm over Yarlung Zangbo RiverA lonely peach tree blossoming in Yarlung Zangbo Grand CanyonNatural hot spring in wild, me singing and drinking (photo by a friend of mine) Day 1(April 20), 16km, Camping 5192mIt was a truck with a full load of iron wastes, arriving in Jieshan Daban at 6'o clock in the morning. It was still night and extremely cold and dark. Driver was not bothered to pop his head out of the driving cab. I climbed up on the top of the iron wastes, taking my bicycle down. In a hurry, I punched my old water bag. Fortunately I had another MSR water bag given by a friend of mine otherwise I would definitely fail without even starting my journey. For the first time for me to set up the brand new tent in strong, cold winds. It would be impossible to do so if the tent was not a whole piece. Extremely cold outside, about -15C, might be lower than that, I put my head into the sleeping bag but was nearly suffocated to death, honestly. The smell of Dingding's sleeping bag was, lol, so extraordinary. I woke up around 11 o'clock. There were still strong winds outside so that I had to use my bodyweight to keep the tent in place. At the time when I just started to cook and eat, four patrolling soldiers approached me. To their surprise someone, in this season, camped in Jieshan Daban. I was so nervous and afraid they were the people to block my journey because I was caught and deported from the desolate land last year. Luckily the four soldiers did not know my destination and were very kind to me. After they left, I immediately packed my stuff and pushed my bike into the depths of the unpopulated area just in case anything unexpected happened.The bike was very heavy due to the provisions and hard to control. There was even a quite small hill that I had to remove my bike panniers to get over it. This really struck me because this happened even the path was still the hardship one at the moment and I could not imagine what I would do once I entered the uncertain, endless wilderness. Until now I had not met anyone, even the nomadic pastoralists. I remembered there were quite a few of them roaming at the edge of the northern Tibetan plateau last year. All of these indicated it was not the good pasture season in such low temperature and strong winds. Around 16km there was a sheep cote, where I passed it last year, east of Lungmu Co. I was exhausted at this point so that I decided to camp in here and to rest my head. After arranging tent everything I went out to look for the wetland discovered by Duola and Liumeng last year. I was determined to find it.There were many hot springs in the wetland which were underground water with a constant temperature. The wetland therefore became an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such harsh weather, which was the very unique land feature of terrain in this over 5200m highland.Perpetual snow in the valley blown to corn shape by strong windsThis wetland was discovered by Duola and Liumeng. The workers at a nearby mine did not know it and I too missed it last yearUnderground water with a constant temperature, an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such icy weather 感谢大伙儿支持和加分，不一一回复了。特别感谢多啦，希望能有机会一起喝酒吃肉。 Day 2 (April 21), 0km, Camping5192mBlustering gale all night, up and down like ocean waves. The next day rather than continuing to travel, I stayed inside the sheep cote, hesitating and pondering over. Indeed, there were so many problems before this journey;I did not have sufficient physical preparation;the load had already reached its limitation; I still coughed a lot;the weather was so extreme and cold. All in all, I did not think this journey was well prepared and I did not have confidence in completing this journey mentally and physically. To do, or not to do, it was the question. Similarly I did not have confidence in my facilities, not knowing whether all of them would work functionally or not. The fact was one of the rivets got broken again and the front rack came loose. In the afternoon, I replaced all the rivets of the panniers with screws I had prepared before. This was an excellent job I had done which gave me no further troubles throughout my whole journey. I also re-adjusted the front rack. However I did not think it would definitely all right because I did not have a tool to do it. When the darkness descended,I made up my mind to continue my journey, which, of course, was not beyond any imagination. Orchid-like weedsSmall springs everywhere, clear and chillyA thin layer of ice covering the fresh spring water The sheep cote, it was the door under the sleeping bag, which was in the same place as last year, everything looked like yesterdayThe wetland at duskLungmu Co at dusk. You could hear the gigantic sound of wind if the picture had a sound Day 3 (April 22), 52.4km, Camping 5145mGot up in the morning, could not put everything into the bags. Without much choice I had to throw away three portions of tsampa, elbow pads, and crampons. Following the road of the lead-zinicmine I found the side path to enter the wilderness, which was on the riverbed and very hard to see. I missed this side path last year so that I had to take a short cut into the wilderness directly then. That was why I had taken extra care to find the side path. The following journey was to get over a big hill, which lay 5275m above sea level and was the highest point of my whole journey. Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I passed the side path leading to Orba Co and started a journey which was complete strange to me. I ate a piece of pilot breads, which was frozen like rocks so that I had to use my spade to crush it. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I had pushed plus rode my bicycle for about 32 km. I reckoned I should have been able to double this if I did no carry such heavy load. The wind became stronger and stronger. I opened the parasail kits and tested it. The result was far beyond what I expected. With the aid of the strong wind I was just like flying over the wilderness. After 8 o'clock in the evening, I started to observe the water Source and to get ready to camp. Map showed there were successive springs along the path and assembled to puddles. But I had overestimated the water source here in this land and in this season there were endless wilderness inside the valley, where I could not see a single drop of water. As it became darker and darker, I felt a little bit nervous which resulted in three spokes of the parasail broken and became a useless rubbish. Anyway, it helped me to move forward 20km more which benefited me a lot later on. When time approached 9.30 pm, it was almost completely dark. I had to lie my bike on the ground and went on to try to find water on the north side of the valley. This was a wide and flat sandy land, where I could not see any ditches there and further was complete darkness. I returned to get my GPS to look up the contours and found the south part of the valley was closer to a hill so I took the way. Finally I found a piece of ice in a ditch. I smashed about 20litre of ice. The ice was quite shallow scattered with sheep poo. On my way back, my eyes were hurt by strong winds, which got me a couple of days to recover. It was nearly 23 o'clock after I set up the tent. It also took about 40 mins to melt the ice. I was so tired and my appetite was completely spoiled. I then had a little bit of milk. I had never expected thing would go like this, it was so distressing. Streams along the path, ice everywhereThe river flew into Matou Hu, in whose north part there was a satellite lake, a wonderful ice-skating court It took 40mins to melt the ice in midnight Day 4 (April 23), 31km, Camping 5028mA cloudy day with gusts. From now and again, hails chased me from behind. Sunny spell. Heavy sandy land made me have to push my bike. At 3pm, I arrived at Luxing Hu, where there was a house made of clay. This was the last permanent building of my journey. Last year, Duola and Liumeng once lived in this house for three days without meeting anybody. It seemed it was the same but the truck parking in front of the house made me worry about. I went to the sheep cote first to check over, where there were only a few lambs following me everywhere I went later on. This made me feel warm in my heart. I observed farther places using my binoculars but could not see any people or sheeps. After making sure there were no people around I opened the locked door using a screwdriver. The living room was very clean. There were two boxes of beverages on the ground and a string of cured lamb legs hanging over in the interior room. A pot of water was on the top of the stove, lukewarm, which indicated the host must be not far away from his home. I filled up my water bag and left the house. I also put the screws back to the door in order not to leave any trace of my visiting. I then took a spanner from the toolbox of the truck, which gave me great help for the rest of the journey.I left the house as quickly as possible. After last year's experience, the nomadic pastoralists were the last people I wanted to meet. A few hundred meters away from the house, the vehicle traces were fading fast. Even downhill, I had to push rather than to ride because of the heavy loose sand. From the route point of view, only after Luxing Hu it was the real unpopulated land. After many days, I thought of the lamb legs from time to time. It was pity that I then had plenty of provisions and the bike was too heavy to carry anything more. Continue to melt the ice under the morning sunshine, all of the sheep poo had been removed carefullyCamping site, the little hill over there was the place where I got the ice last nightThe house by the Luxing Hu, empty, the last permanent building I saw throughout my journeyDay 5 (April 24), 19.8km, Camping 4951mSet off at 10.30 in the morning, the weather was similar to yesterday. Probably this road was the high plain or somewhere the wind passed so that it was so windy. The average wind speed was degree 6 but could reach degree 9 in the blick of an eye. The road was still full of sand and very heavy to walk on it. My eyes became worse under such harsh weather. About three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw something in my right, looked like antenna. I went closer to see what it was and found out it was an iron tower (the triangulation station). In 1970s, a joint team from Chinese three military regiments entered this area doing research. They have left a lot of triangulation stations and benchmarks, which I had the priviledge to see them today.At dusk, I approached to a spring by the Bungdag Co, which flew into the frozon lake. The sand and soil, brought by the strong wind, scattered on the surface of the ice all over the lake. There were so many cracks around the icey surface of the lake. I geussed it must be caused by the springs under the water rather than by melted ice. In the west of the Bungdag Co was the side path leading to Keriya Pass, where a SUV could reach directly. I had looked out any vehicle Tracks but failed. The cloudy sky started to snow. I set up the tent comfortably because I knew that I was safe having such a sweet spring beside me.Triangulation station erected by scientists from the joint research team on Chang Tang of three military regiments in 1971[size=+0]The gap between water and ice in Bungdag Co, I guessed there must be some springs under the lakeThe storm just above the ground, a chaotic darkness[size=+0]Icy Bungdag Co,one of the four biggest lakes in Northern Tibet, wild ducks flying over this vastness and lonenessSnowing at any time, should not happen so frequently like this in this seasonDay 6 (April 25), 4.3km, Camping 5002mWeathering landforms everywhere around this area. Spongy volcanic rocks could be found easily. I pushed my bike turning around a small hill, seeing a big river, the Yinshui He, flowing from Orba Co into Bungdag Co, which I had been to its upstream last year. It was also a passage for animal migration. The downstream of the river was extremely wide and broad. The thickess of the ice layer could reach one meter with the main stem in the middle course of the river, very deep. There were a few springs along the river, sweet and clear.I only went forward a little bit more than 4km but I had walked more than 20km for finding my way. It was not possible to cross the main stem, let alone the north bank of Bungdad Co. What I could only do was to try to find a shallow place to cross. But the southern area was a even larger piece of wetland and forced the road turn towards west. I spent a couple of hours but failed to find a good point to cross the river. In the afternoon, I decided to follow the edge of the wetland. When I reached the hill foot, the wetland finally disappeared. Around this area, there were clearly volcanic feature of terrain and I even found traces of pasturing and cairns made from volcanic rock.Here was the last pasturing trace I found throughout my journey, I guessed it was a summer pasture area. After this, there was no clear sign of human activities in this vast wilderness. I had been looking for my ways until it was dark. I made up my mind where to go TOMOrrow. The terrain here looked like Yardang landforms, as well as volcanic landforms The Yinshui He river from Orba CoSprings scattered all over the river bank, painted green by lovely algaeThe river was very deep. The mixture of green and amber colour showed the sand and mud carried by the melted iceThick layer of ice, sunken surface caused by strong gustsThe south course of the Yinshui He, countless small streams. To the right was the wetlandLooking for ways in the east, a trace of pasturing and the cairn made from spongy volcanic rocksMy camp, opposite to the hillDay 7 (April 26), 11km, Camping 5009mI moved forward to the direction I found yesterday, turning around the wetland and walking toward east. At 2pm, I was blocked by the zigzag Yinshui He again and I had no choice but to cross it. The river was about 700m wide, covered by ice which appeared very different. The hanging ice, the folding ice, the piling-up ice, the icy puddle, and the sleet were everywhere along the river bank. Having noticed all of these, I reckoned the river would be receding at dusk, which was why there were so many different shapes and forms of ice. I put my slipper on, going into the main stream of the river. I found there were at least three different courses of the river, the thickness of the surface ice varied and the river water reached above my knees. I sighed there would be no way back once I crossed this river. There are many ways in one's life too, you can only take it once and you will no long have the courage to repeat it.I pushed the bike crossing the river. Some of the ice was a bit soft, jamming the tyres so that I had to use my feet to break them first. Some of the ice was a bit thick but with half-melted underneath, sticking the the bike completely, some of the ice was half-water half-ice with a sandy riverbed, which was really hard to pass. I had to remove all of the panniers at the last stage of the crossing. I spent the whole four hours to cross the river, my legs got many bloody cuts. At 6pm, the surface ice was almost disappeared completely, the river level rapidly rising to a chaotic status. I thought if I hesitated a little bit at that time, I could not have the courage to cross this river under such circumstances. The river bank was unimaginably sandy and was quite steep. I had to unloaded the panniers again to reach the top of the bank. By the time of sunset, the weather became exceptionally good. The sunlight from the descending sun, the blue sky, the faint moon, .... I liked such a colorful and peaceful Chang Tang and very much enjoyed my camp and myself bathed in such beautiful colour.The ice like this was very thin and suspended, far away from the main stemHard surface with half-melted underneath, the soft sand at the botton was most scaryThe ice like this could easily jam the wheels, hard to get it outI had to unload the panniersChaotic water and terrible hails turned up in no timeThe Chang Tang at the moment liked it used to be,a mixture of cold and warm tones under the golden setting sun Day 8 (April 27), 14.6km, Camping 5112mLast night, I forgot to bring in the odometer, which was out of order due to the coldness in midnight. Since then I used GPS to check the mileage. The digital thermometer was no longer working. I had to use mercury thermometer to collect data. Night temperatures were basically between –15℃—–20℃ while the temperature inside my tent was about –10℃. The advantage of the integrated tent was that it limited the ventilation so to keep warm inside. However, it got clearly disadvantage of heavy condensation and dew. Every morning, there was plenty of frost inside the tent so that I had to put my hood on First Before fully getting dressed. The winds in Chang Tang finally became consistent with the pattern I had researched the other day no or very tiny wind in the morning, strong wind started after 2pm, and then at around 8pm its strength was reduced again. The accuracy of this prediction was about 80%.The road was very bad today. I walked whole afternoon in an ancient riverbed and it was so difficult that I had to use all of my strengths to move a small step forward and then to stop to breath, slower than a snail. After five hours' struggling, my eyes got wet when I saw the grassy river bank. Finally! The nightmare was over.Cold and clear morningHeavy morning condensation in the interior, a lot of frost to clearSuch dawning sunlight indicated a cloudy day ahead Day 9 (April 28), 18km, 5072mIn the morning I entered a range of sandy roads which were so terrible. The solar panel specially designed for GPS got short circuited. After checking it was found to be the diode got damaged. Luckily I got a replacement. Because the GPS was exclusively supplied by a solar panel so that it was no longer a problem for the power supplement of GPS. In a period of 70 days, I did replace the battery once, which saved me a lot of alkaline batteries. I did have another solar panel of 5.4 W which was used specifically for 7.5V Camera, DV and other digital facilities. Unlike water, I had never been short of power.At 7pm in the evening, I arrived at Pur Co. The surface of this lake was very odd the ice by the river bank rose and the river bank was broken, I reckoned that was due to the strong winds. The ice there was mingled with something yellow, could be the stain of alkali. There were many wild yaks on the other side of the lake. There could be two brown bears but I could not be for certain. On the east side of the lake, there was a peninsula leading to the centre of the lake. I camped just opposite to the peninsula. At night , I smashed the ice to get drinking water, which tasted alkali. For the first time I cooked the cereals, which was brought completely by accident. This was just because I found there was a little bit of extra space when I was in Nagri packing the stuff for this journey so that I bought two packs of cereals. It tasted disgusting, probably there was too much alkali in the water. I threw away half of it. Later I realised that probably I subconsciously felt that the provisions was so heavy. I would rather make it lighter at any cost.Dry all my stuff in the morning sun, a routine matterA faint dusk in Pur CoThe river bank pushed up by ice and opened like zipper by gustsThe pushed up surface of the iceThe place where I got my drinking water, a thin layer of ice behind the ablation corns The moment just before sun set, glittering Pur Co, nothing was the same差点儿没找到俺自己的帖子，原来变色了。多谢各位鼓励。 Day 10 (April 29), 16km, Camping 5141mIn the morning, I walked around the north bank of the Pur Co， where it were continuous ups and downs sprinkled with light yellow sprouts across the sparse grassland. The wild yaks clustered into small groups. All of a sudden, there was a group of five of them running towards me, blowing a huge cloud of dust with the power of thunderbolts,I believed that anyone who did not know the characters of the wild yaks must be frightened to death under such circumstances. The fact was the wild yaks in groups never injured people. Rushing to you just to show you its territory. When they approached people at certain distance, they would turn sharply and run away, and then stopped somewhere high to stare at you. You can not imagine that the wild yaks were very cautious animals compared with its almost one ton of weight. Their first reaction, when meeting people, was to raise their tails, the front hooves rubbing against the ground, the horns pointing forward, the eyes redden, and the long body hair shaking, all of which showed their determination to fight.This was the warning sign that you should retreat. However, you should realise that this was only a gesture that they were afraid of you and wanted to scare you away. The thing was that if you were not afraid of them and moved forward, they would run away in no time. There were only some mad yaks attacking people, which was really rare to happen. In Chang Tang, an experienced driver know that it is very dangerous to pass directly from two or three lonely wild yaks. They always tried to avoid confronting them directly. If this was not possible, they would lit a cigarette, smoking, to wait until the yaks walked away themselves. This was because the wild yaks really could attack vehicles, which was not completely rumors. I once asked them why I had not been attacked. They told me that because my bike was so small they would not be bothered to attack it. My own experience was that approaching a wild yak very slowly, do not look into its eyes, and ignored what it was doing. As long as it moved forward a little bit, just stop and give the yaks a little bit of time to think. Because if you forced the yak, it could be themost dangerous animal in the world and nothing could stop them killing. Even a gunshot could not kill it but only left a small hole in its skin. In the past, the nomads living near this land would use yaks' skin as chopping board which was very much endurable. At noon, I lost my balacLAVA, which was brand new and I had never used it once. I could not be bothered to go back tofind it. This resulted in that I had to have my fleece hat day and night in the rest of my journey, which did not provide fully protection from the sun in the plateau. But somehow I was all right, perhaps because my skin is similar to those of yaks, lol. At around half past one, I found a deserted Jeep, upside down. I felt it could be there for years and it could be the vehicle of someillegal HUNTERs. Nowadays, we have wildlife conservation reserves in Chang Tang and the animals here are well protected. However, some people kills the wild yaks to sell them as the domestic yak's meat. In general, it is worth 10,000 Chinese yuans for a single wild yak. Therefore many people take the risk to make money. They often enter the unpopulated areas to hunt and their activities can reach 200 km in diameter. This is why the wild yaks in the deep wilderness are less afraid of people than thoseat the boundaries of the Chang Tang region.There once happened that a wild yak mother revenged its baby's murder in the Altun mountains. Its horns pierced the killer's chest and held his body over its head for more than ten days, which was very touching.Around 3pm, I walked out of the Pur basin. The next point was Hong Shan Daban and then it was the Yueya Hu by the Toze Gangri. At this time I found a vehicle track from south to north. I checked over but could not find the way where they had gone. I took my map, GPS, and compass, climbing up a small hill to estimate the location of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30)， 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evaluate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for? The pregnant female chirus in migration, probably heading to Heishi Beihu to give birth([]

谢仁琦去年下半年，开始考虑今年的行程，打算到东南亚去看看。 境外游的前辈们，向我介绍了穷游网，在众多的游记中反复比较之后，发现对我这种菜鸟级的人来说，最适合的是泰国。一是它的旅游业整体成熟；二是泰国人信佛，治安良好，人也友善；三是费用相对低廉。 既然确定了目，那首先解决的就是交通了，这个时候，亚洲航空又走到我的面前，作为亚洲第一家廉价航空公司，虽然它的价格日益高涨，但相对国内的价格，那还真是没有可比性啊。 亚航上海没有直飞曼谷的航线，从哪里转呢？是国内的西安、武汉还是香港、澳门，或者菲律宾？最终让我下定决心是一则新闻，亚航将于13年2月开通上海往返吉隆坡的航线，而首航最低的票价为860人民币往返含税，还需要犹豫吗？ 没抢过亚航机票的人，可能不知道抢票的痛苦，凌晨的时候，苦苦守在电脑边上，反复的刷新，好在，这一切均由别人代劳，我要做的只是陪在电脑跟前，过程自然没有那么顺利，最终结果是三个月的时间内，购买了三次机票，四飞的价格是人民币1602，虽然每个航段都不是最低，但完全符合我的心理价格。 大交通结束后是小交通，对于一个语言不通的人来说，事先了解是必须做的功课，这时前辈们又把LP（孤独星球）适时的推到我的面前。。。。。 “亚航昨晚不讲信用，不到十二点就偷偷放票，八百多的票刚过十二点就木有了，今晚只能帮朋友买了一千二吉隆坡来回的。朋友本地大妈，以前西部经常一个人晃悠，但木有过出境背包游，英文白痴，很纯的那种，这次打算用足全部证周期，独行马泰一个多月，这胆量和酒量一样，也真不是三天两头就能练出来的啊” 这是替我买票的前辈写的微博，看到时的心慌到现在还记忆犹新，就这样，一点点的收集，慢慢的准备，直到开始我的旅程。 时间：5月12日--6月21日 计40天 费用：合人民币约7918元 凌晨的航班，提早一天从苏州坐火车到虹桥，再转地铁去浦东，这是到浦东机场最经济的走法。 顺着指示牌一直往里走着，怎么还是看不到，问了工作人员，一指，原来前面排最长队的就是，看来低价位还是很吸引人，并不象传说中的，柜台只提前二小时办理登机，太好了，坐在里面等总比在外面站着强。 拿着打出的登机牌，才发现，原来在天朝这种是不被认可的，重新办理，再去边检排队，早知道背包不称重，我该多带点东西啊（我没购买行李票，背包重量不得超过七公斤）。 好困，实在无聊，看了一集电视剧后想起玩下翻译软件，结果，当头一棒，下载的三个软件，无一可以离线使用，当初我是怎么试谷歌翻译的离线包来着？不是可以的吗？难道是我只关了WIFI，没关移动网络？ 反复尝试，后果相同，那一刻真是闪出过放弃的念头，这时离登机还有一小时，看着行李，看着机票，想着种种的准备，也许我还是可以试一下。 这是排着长队等着办理登机的乘客。 亚航空姐ZHI服是大红的颜色，贴身剪裁，十分火辣，但机舱内空调却十足，我拿出准备好的厚围巾，把自己围上，睡着对我来说，是不太可能的事，最多闭目养神，偶尔看看窗外，第一次坐红眼，期待着能在空中看到日出。 这应该已经是大马的境内了，城市里的闪闪灯光，这么高高的看下去，有些象一个缀满珠串的饰品。 随着时间推进，我发现，这个国家虽然与我们没有时差，但看到日出已经没有可能，6点钟，天根本没亮啊。 在空中看到的马来西亚。 下了飞机就是办理过境了，按攻略找到地方，拿到表格，对照打好的中文填写，第一次，难免有错，想去换一张新的时候，发现人家根本不理我呀，，央了旁人用英语去解释，人家只回说，划掉重填即可，马来人都那么凶吗？担心又加重一点，好在填好之后再出示离境机票，盖章顺利，并没有留下指纹啥，我就进入了这个国家。 拍这张照片的时候，我已经顺利入境了。 计划是从机场直接去马六甲，可长途汽车站在哪里呢？我拿着便本，上面写着马六甲的英文，去给一个工作人员看，他给我指了一个大致的方向，无奈机场有点大，一会我就有点转向，看到身后一个人好像是同一班机的，再去问他，原来这是一个马来人，既不会中文，英文MS也不懂，他和太太陪着我一直走到汽车站台，接着找了一个华侨做翻译，告诉我在这里坐车。 刚才对马来人的印象一下就有了一个一百八十度的转变，听到中文，又觉得亲切了很多。 原来这里并不售票，这位华侨又问了边上的工作人员，画了草图告诉我售票窗口该怎么走，几次来回，就到了发车的时间。 这张是走过长途车站拍的，第一眼的吉隆坡。 到马六甲的时候，这里刚下过雨，湿热的天气让我有点不适应，我要去坐17路公车，依然找不到车站在哪儿，问过工作人员，她同样跟一个马来人说了什么，然后示意我跟着那人一起走，这个显然也是不通中文和英语，要转弯的时候，就跟我比划一下，直到送我到车站后才发现，其实他跟我并不是坐同一班车，看来马来人民很热心啊。 坐在那里等车，一会边上就多了些同样等车的人，左边二个操着日语，右边一个小男生手上拿着一叠A4纸，我一看就是中国游客，果然。 我自己的包里也是同样一叠啊，比这还厚呢。 原来这是一个来自北京的应届毕业生，趁没报到的时间出来玩一圈，旅馆什么都已经定好，手上拿着的那些都是订单的打印件。 车来了，驶向市区，看上去，这个城市很安静，应该是到了芒果成熟的季节，还看到不少芒果挂在枝头。 到了红屋，道声别，我去到河对面的唐人街寻找住处，唐人街的旅馆都好贵，背着包，往深里走，中途遇到一位华人的老太太，跟我说，包（我还提了一个摄影包）不能提在手上，要背在身上，不要走在马路中间，小心有人抢，这可是大中午啊。知道我在找住处，又告诉我怎么走，哪里有间华人开的旅馆，便宜又干净，真是太好了。 这是找到住处后去吃中饭，一个小的巷子，只有本地人，香港云吞面，那云吞是鲜虾做的馅，真挺好吃的。 这个季节中午的时间并不适合出行，我赞过云吞面就回住处午睡去了，午睡是我的生活习惯之一，就算是出行，一般也不会改变。 下午三点半，再出来晃悠，红屋的游客实在太多，边上停满旅游的大巴，我还是躲着点吧。先是去看了建筑博物馆，里面有不同时期，不同种族的建筑模型，除了最开始的视频有中文的字幕，别的说明均为英文，很快，就走了出来。 再到了商船博物馆，这是荷兰典型的商船，甲板面积小，肚子大，当时海上贸易，各个国家对商船收税是按照甲板面积来收的，荷兰很聪明，发明了这种甲板面积小，肚子大的船，可以多装货物，少交税。这就是为什么荷兰可以称为海上马车夫的一个原因。 照片为这荷兰商船。 从栈道往回，是一个小小的城堡，走上台阶，就看到这些大炮，朝着不同的方向，告诉我这里曾经多么重要。 再慢慢走回唐人街，它的名字叫鸡场街，志就是立在街口的郑和宝船。 鸡场街位于马六甲城市广场前的马六甲桥的另一边，至今已经有300年历史。据记载：早在十五世纪初，福建的商人就来到马六甲经商。到了十六世纪，即中国明代中晚期，鸡场街一带，已形成相当大的华人村落。如今的鸡场街几乎全貌地体现出一百乃至数百年前，中国人生活的全部要素。 在我看来，它有很多保留完好的老东西，象是在看民国剧，比如这个印务局。 再比如这个邝洋服，当我拍完的时候，老板走出门来，拉上关好，骑上停在门口的自行车，回家了。 这是条商业街，而现在只有五点半。 这是鸡场街文化坊的创始人，曾经的世界先生颜文龙先生的半身铜像，这个地点是在世遗公园， 2008年7月，马六甲被联合国教科文组织列为世界文化遗产。而颜老先生仍然健在，去年度过了他八十岁的生日。 夕阳西下，不到六点，鸡场街的大部分店铺都已经关闭。 桥那边的红屋却依然热闹。 顺着河边随意的走着，夕阳真好。 走下河沿，拍几张照片，发现另一边还有一个走下来的人，他在画画，相视笑了一下，各自忙碌， 返回，路过，打了声招呼，知道他来自于法国，在马六甲四天了，明天便要离开，我的英文水平实在无法做再多的交流，我让他看了我相机里拍的照片，他让我看了他的画本。其实我会觉得，他比我更能体会到这里的美，这是我欣赏的旅行态度。 天色渐暗，想到治安，只能离开，边上停的那辆自行车，应该是他的交通工具吧，很遗憾不能看到他上好颜色。那个法国帅哥所绘的内容。 第二天一早的任务，是去山顶看日出。出门的时候，天还黑着，虽然提前一天问好了路，但那人的汉语不太流利，总觉得有些问。 走到鸡场街，看到前面有一位华人老伯伯，就上前去问了他，老伯伯79岁，每天早起晨练，从不耽搁，听说我要上升旗山顶，便带我一同走，但不同意我一个人上山。他说山顶上的角落经常会有些吸毒的人，一个女孩子上去不太安全，让我跟他一起在山脚的停车场那里做健身操。 做操，真是几十年没干过的事了，为了老伯伯的好心，我只能耐着性子跟着他们，眼睛却一直四处张望。 天渐渐亮了起来，老伯伯看我早就没了心思，告诉我怎么上山，吩附我多加小心。 好漂亮的云霞，我激动的拿出相机。 天呐，一晚上的空调，又是一晚上的雨，二个相机的镜头上全是水汽，真是欲哭无泪，好在，我想起我还有手机，手机按了几张之后，相机慢慢褪去水雾，才有了这么一张。 升旗山上的圣保罗教堂 朝霞笼罩中的马六甲 远远的，那就是马六甲海峡。 注：马六甲海峡是连接印度洋和太平洋的水道，西岸是印度尼西亚的苏门答腊岛，东岸是西马来西亚和泰国南部，面积为65000平方公里(25000平方浬)。海峡长度为800公里(500浬)，状似漏斗，其南口宽只有65公里(40浬)，向北渐宽，到印尼的沙璜和泰国的克拉地峡之间的北口已宽达249公里(155浬)。马六甲海峡因在马来亚海岸上的贸易港口，马六甲(Melaka,原称Malacca)而得名，该城在16和17世纪时是重要的港埠，是连接沟通太平洋与印度洋的国际水道，也是亚洲与大洋州的十字路口。 海峡现由新加坡、马来西亚和印度尼西亚3国共管。 圣保罗教堂。二边两侧均为墓碑。 马六甲15世纪末是葡萄牙殖民地，这个教堂建于那个时期，1521 年时，一位葡萄牙将军 DUARTE COELHO 在此兴建一座小教堂，他希望它会是这座城市中最先进的天主教堂。后来与荷兰利益冲突，毁于炮火，当荷兰人接管马六甲后，它被改称为圣保罗教堂。 1753 年 CHRIST 教堂建造完毕，圣保罗教堂就被弃而不用。后来，荷兰人将它改为埋葬有名望的人之墓园。英国人接管后，因为教派不同，不愿意重建，因而教堂为现在这个样子。 圣方济雕像。 方济各·沙勿略（St. Francois Xavier），是最早来东方传教的耶稣会士。沙勿略1506年4月7日出生在西班牙纳瓦拉省的哈维尔城堡，死于1552年。他是耶稣会创始人之一，首先将天主教传播到亚洲的马六甲和日本。天主教会称之为“历史上最伟大的传教士”；圣方济萨威于1622年被封圣，而1927年，他与圣女小德兰一起被列为外国传教士的主保。 圣地利亚哥古城门，这是葡萄牙人殖民统治时期修建的。石头垒起的城门两侧，各有一门铜炮。据说当年葡萄牙人在马六甲修筑了许多城堡和城门，这些城堡和城门都建得大气磅礡，极具防御和观赏价值。遗憾的是，后来荷兰人统治马来西亚时，为了显示自己的声威，大肆拆毁城堡和城门。直到英国殖民者统治马来西亚时，才阻止住荷兰人的破坏。可惜为时已晚，全马六甲仅剩这一座城门。 马六甲重要的地理位置决定它一直是各方势力争夺之地，各种炮台也时时提醒了这一点。 但撇开这一切，当我看到蓝天白云，看到绿树成荫，，看到人们在慢跑，我觉得这里只是一座宁静安详的小城，我喜欢这样的小城。 走回住处，这是途中的一个祠堂，其实我不太明白，一个华人的祠堂怎么会建得如此西式的样子，但大门紧锁，没有答案。永春会馆，相信大家都知道叶问吧。 回去的时候，发现旅馆对面有个小菜场，以我的经验，小菜场里肯定有好吃的东西，果然如此。没想到这里的华人如此喜欢喝咖啡，就算是在菜场里的小食摊上也会供应。 再次出门的时候，又去了永春会馆，这里正在重新装修，工人们进进出出的搬运着材料。 这里是前厅。 各界馆长，碑上是重修的纪年以及会馆的历史。 其实这块区域很多会馆，门面都很中国，但内里有些已经破落，福建会馆的前厅，白天的时候，看到都是按摩的师傅。这家其实是在售卖老式家具，走进去是因为它的建筑结构，这是马六甲典型的传统住宅。 这张照片可以大致看出它的格局。 之后，我去参观了峇峇娘惹博物馆。 开始知道娘惹，完全是因为《小娘惹》这部电视剧，当年回厦门，好像所有的台都在播放，跟着看了几集，直到完全入戏。 博物馆门票12马币（相当于24人民币）是我在大马买的最贵的门票了，博物馆早上十点才开，就算是开放的时间也大门紧闭，只有按门铃，门才会由里面打开。 这里是《小娘惹》里月娘家的拍摄地，是当地一位有名的峇峇家族的祖屋，第一代主人是卖香料起家，现在的主人已经是第四代，目前全家住在吉隆坡，把祖屋拿出来办了这个私人博物馆。 这其实是他们家的天井，在我拍了一张之后，被告之不可以拍照，只能收了相机，四处转转。 虽然他们有工作人员会说中文，但只提供英文的服务，无奈，只能看个表面了，简单的说，看了这里就会明白，什么叫做大户之家，什么叫做品味，我是建议如果有机会有人去到马六甲，一定也要过去感受一下。 注：据史载，中国明朝有一个叫韩柳的公主当年跟随郑和下南洋时，与马六甲的一个苏丹联姻，护送她来到马六甲的有五百名卫士。这五百名卫士后来便在马六甲的一个小山上住下并挖了一口井，于是这座小山叫做“三保山”，这口井叫做“三保井”。后来人们还加了罩盖保护这口井，并在井旁和山下都立有说明和志，供游人参观。 这些定居在马六甲的早期华人与当地妇女——马来妇女或暹罗妇女等通婚所生的后代，使被称为“峇峇”；而嫁给华人后脱离当地习俗而遵守丈夫华人习俗的这些妇女，便被称为“娘惹”。“峇峇娘惹”的家庭及其亲戚们基本上是封闭相处的，他们代代相传，形成了一个“峇峇娘惹”社会。在长期的生活中，为了既适应华人社会的习俗，又适应马来社会的习俗，在文化的碰撞与认同中逐渐地形成了“峇峇娘惹”文化。“峇峇娘惹”文化基本上是汉人文化。学者将“峇峇华人”称为华人次群族。例如他们信仰的是华人的礼教，遵守的是华人的风俗，祭拜的是华人的神位(如观音菩萨、关公帝等)和祖先。他们的婚礼也与华人相同，甚至还有按传统的方式举行婚礼的，即新郎穿长袍马褂，新娘穿裙褂、戴凤冠等。在曾氏的祖屋博物馆门前，就立着两尊穿传统服饰的新郎、新娘的塑像。当然，这些“峇峇娘惹”们也有许多与华人不同的地方，如讲的是“峇峇马来话”，这是一种与马来亚准语及马来方言有差异并夹杂有许多闽南话词汇的语言。“娘惹”们穿“娘惹装”——“格巴雅”或纱笼，这是马来人和印尼人的服装样式；饮食方面也是“峇峇式”，即用“峇峇娘惹烹饪法”——一种将马来人与华人汇合起来的烹调法。而且他们也像马来人一样用手或者用勺与叉吃饭，而不用筷子，等等。 想要说明的一点是，我专门去吃过娘惹晶露，有点甜腻，娘惹面，因为豆芽的原因，基本我没吃下去，从而落荒而逃，因此也没有再去品尝有名的海南鸡饭。([]

There are many like-minded asking me about it. I now present this thread to briefly tell everybody about my journey.The starting point of this traverse was from the highest peak of the western part of the Tibetan plateau, Jieshan Daban, and the day was April 20, 2010.I was heading eastward passing Bungdag Co, Yanghu Co, Rola Co, and Kangzhagri Mountain, which crossed over the desolate region from west to east. The journey continued northward to enter the unpopulated area of Altun Mountains, through Hoh Xil Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Whale lake, ..., finally met some people by the Aqqikkol Hu and then arrived in Huatugou by vehicle three days later and that day was July 5. It had been 77 days in total. I had been all alone 74 days after leaving Jieshan Daban until arriving inAqqikkol Hu, which was about 1400km and about four months.[The Great Chang Tang] In Tibetan, "Chang Tang" means northern empty wilderness while narrowly, means unpopulated region in northern part of Tibet. However, it actually indiCATes all of the no man's land in northern. The great Chang Tang includes desolate places in Northern Tibet, Hoh Xil, Alun Mountains, and Kunlun Mountains, which are interconnected to form the unique and super empty wilderness in the world. Only because Hoh Xil is the most known name, most people just think this vast land is equivalent to Hoh Xil. In reality, Hoh Xil is only a small piece of the Great Chang Tang both administratively and geologically. The Great Chang Tang, the last land to chase your freedom and dream.The route that I traversed ForeplayI arrived in Tibet in the early March, a couple of troubles bothered me. The brand new plug got its positive and negative wrongly connected; the rivets of my rucksack eASIly got broken from now and again; and a multi-functional charger got damaged and so on. Riding my bike to Ngari for warming up of this journey, lost my rucksack but later got it back; lost my camera bag and got it back later again, and finally lost a big bicycle pannier in the street of Gyangze town under the eyes of police, including clothes, solar panel and so on.Without much choice, I returned to Lhasa to adjust all the stuff I would need in the wilderness. Then I begged some luck by going to Nyingchi to enjoy the blossoms of peach trees and to take a hot spring bath. I even had the privilege to enjoy time with ten girls in the hot spring. I felt my bad luck had all gone and then returned to Lhasa again to prepare going to Ngari. I did not expect that I was cheated on by some hustler and lost some money and delayed my schedule for a week. I had to find a car myself quickly to Nagri. However, I lost the tool for fast-parting my rear wheel on my way to Nagri, where was a remote area in Tibet and nowhere to buy the tool. Even if there was one in Lhasa it would take at least ten days for a special delivery service. I was lucky that my mate Duola asked a driver to bring the tool for me from Lhasa. I thought there should be no more nightmare like this but the nozzle of my brand new multi-fuel stove was broken. The next day I tried everywhere to weld them back together. The first three shops could not do the welding for copper. The fourth one said they could do it but could not guarantee a sUCCess. The engineer said it would be ten Chinese yuans if it was a success. I agreed. Just in seconds, my nozzle became crap in a flash of lightening. I was so upset. Again, Duola helped me by bringing her own MSR oil stove and Dingding's sleeping bag to Nagri. That was already April 16 and I did not have much time to waste. The following day I found a vehicle heading to Jieshan Daban.The sand storm over Yarlung Zangbo RiverA lonely peach tree blossoming in Yarlung Zangbo Grand CanyonNatural hot spring in wild, me singing and drinking (photo by a friend of mine) Day 1(April 20), 16km, Camping 5192mIt was a truck with a full load of iron wastes, arriving in Jieshan Daban at 6'o clock in the morning. It was still night and extremely cold and dark. Driver was not bothered to pop his head out of the driving cab. I climbed up on the top of the iron wastes, taking my bicycle down. In a hurry, I punched my old water bag. Fortunately I had another MSR water bag given by a friend of mine otherwise I would definitely fail without even starting my journey. For the first time for me to set up the brand new tent in strong, cold winds. It would be impossible to do so if the tent was not a whole piece. Extremely cold outside, about -15C, might be lower than that, I put my head into the sleeping bag but was nearly suffocated to death, honestly. The smell of Dingding's sleeping bag was, lol, so extraordinary. I woke up around 11 o'clock. There were still strong winds outside so that I had to use my bodyweight to keep the tent in place. At the time when I just started to cook and eat, four patrolling soldiers approached me. To their surprise someone, in this season, camped in Jieshan Daban. I was so nervous and afraid they were the people to block my journey because I was caught and deported from the desolate land last year. Luckily the four soldiers did not know my destination and were very kind to me. After they left, I immediately packed my stuff and pushed my bike into the depths of the unpopulated area just in case anything unexpected happened.The bike was very heavy due to the provisions and hard to control. There was even a quite small hill that I had to remove my bike panniers to get over it. This really struck me because this happened even the path was still the hardship one at the moment and I could not imagine what I would do once I entered the uncertain, endless wilderness. Until now I had not met anyone, even the nomadic pastoralists. I remembered there were quite a few of them roaming at the edge of the northern Tibetan plateau last year. All of these indicated it was not the good pasture season in such low temperature and strong winds. Around 16km there was a sheep cote, where I passed it last year, east of Lungmu Co. I was exhausted at this point so that I decided to camp in here and to rest my head. After arranging tent everything I went out to look for the wetland discovered by Duola and Liumeng last year. I was determined to find it.There were many hot springs in the wetland which were underground water with a constant temperature. The wetland therefore became an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such harsh weather, which was the very unique land feature of terrain in this over 5200m highland.Perpetual snow in the valley blown to corn shape by strong windsThis wetland was discovered by Duola and Liumeng. The workers at a nearby mine did not know it and I too missed it last yearUnderground water with a constant temperature, an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such icy weather 感谢大伙儿支持和加分，不一一回复了。特别感谢多啦，希望能有机会一起喝酒吃肉。 Day 2 (April 21), 0km, Camping5192mBlustering gale all night, up and down like ocean waves. The next day rather than continuing to travel, I stayed inside the sheep cote, hesitating and pondering over. Indeed, there were so many problems before this journey;I did not have sufficient physical preparation;the load had already reached its limitation; I still coughed a lot;the weather was so extreme and cold. All in all, I did not think this journey was well prepared and I did not have confidence in completing this journey mentally and physically. To do, or not to do, it was the question. Similarly I did not have confidence in my facilities, not knowing whether all of them would work functionally or not. The fact was one of the rivets got broken again and the front rack came loose. In the afternoon, I replaced all the rivets of the panniers with screws I had prepared before. This was an excellent job I had done which gave me no further troubles throughout my whole journey. I also re-adjusted the front rack. However I did not think it would definitely all right because I did not have a tool to do it. When the darkness descended,I made up my mind to continue my journey, which, of course, was not beyond any imagination. Orchid-like weedsSmall springs everywhere, clear and chillyA thin layer of ice covering the fresh spring water The sheep cote, it was the door under the sleeping bag, which was in the same place as last year, everything looked like yesterdayThe wetland at duskLungmu Co at dusk. You could hear the gigantic sound of wind if the picture had a sound Day 3 (April 22), 52.4km, Camping 5145mGot up in the morning, could not put everything into the bags. Without much choice I had to throw away three portions of tsampa, elbow pads, and crampons. Following the road of the lead-zinicmine I found the side path to enter the wilderness, which was on the riverbed and very hard to see. I missed this side path last year so that I had to take a short cut into the wilderness directly then. That was why I had taken extra care to find the side path. The following journey was to get over a big hill, which lay 5275m above sea level and was the highest point of my whole journey. Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I passed the side path leading to Orba Co and started a journey which was complete strange to me. I ate a piece of pilot breads, which was frozen like rocks so that I had to use my spade to crush it. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I had pushed plus rode my bicycle for about 32 km. I reckoned I should have been able to double this if I did no carry such heavy load. The wind became stronger and stronger. I opened the parasail kits and tested it. The result was far beyond what I expected. With the aid of the strong wind I was just like flying over the wilderness. After 8 o'clock in the evening, I started to observe the water Source and to get ready to camp. Map showed there were successive springs along the path and assembled to puddles. But I had overestimated the water source here in this land and in this season there were endless wilderness inside the valley, where I could not see a single drop of water. As it became darker and darker, I felt a little bit nervous which resulted in three spokes of the parasail broken and became a useless rubbish. Anyway, it helped me to move forward 20km more which benefited me a lot later on. When time approached 9.30 pm, it was almost completely dark. I had to lie my bike on the ground and went on to try to find water on the north side of the valley. This was a wide and flat sandy land, where I could not see any ditches there and further was complete darkness. I returned to get my GPS to look up the contours and found the south part of the valley was closer to a hill so I took the way. Finally I found a piece of ice in a ditch. I smashed about 20litre of ice. The ice was quite shallow scattered with sheep poo. On my way back, my eyes were hurt by strong winds, which got me a couple of days to recover. It was nearly 23 o'clock after I set up the tent. It also took about 40 mins to melt the ice. I was so tired and my appetite was completely spoiled. I then had a little bit of milk. I had never expected thing would go like this, it was so distressing. Streams along the path, ice everywhereThe river flew into Matou Hu, in whose north part there was a satellite lake, a wonderful ice-skating court It took 40mins to melt the ice in midnight Day 4 (April 23), 31km, Camping 5028mA cloudy day with gusts. From now and again, hails chased me from behind. Sunny spell. Heavy sandy land made me have to push my bike. At 3pm, I arrived at Luxing Hu, where there was a house made of clay. This was the last permanent building of my journey. Last year, Duola and Liumeng once lived in this house for three days without meeting anybody. It seemed it was the same but the truck parking in front of the house made me worry about. I went to the sheep cote first to check over, where there were only a few lambs following me everywhere I went later on. This made me feel warm in my heart. I observed farther places using my binoculars but could not see any people or sheeps. After making sure there were no people around I opened the locked door using a screwdriver. The living room was very clean. There were two boxes of beverages on the ground and a string of cured lamb legs hanging over in the interior room. A pot of water was on the top of the stove, lukewarm, which indicated the host must be not far away from his home. I filled up my water bag and left the house. I also put the screws back to the door in order not to leave any trace of my visiting. I then took a spanner from the toolbox of the truck, which gave me great help for the rest of the journey.I left the house as quickly as possible. After last year's experience, the nomadic pastoralists were the last people I wanted to meet. A few hundred meters away from the house, the vehicle traces were fading fast. Even downhill, I had to push rather than to ride because of the heavy loose sand. From the route point of view, only after Luxing Hu it was the real unpopulated land. After many days, I thought of the lamb legs from time to time. It was pity that I then had plenty of provisions and the bike was too heavy to carry anything more. Continue to melt the ice under the morning sunshine, all of the sheep poo had been removed carefullyCamping site, the little hill over there was the place where I got the ice last nightThe house by the Luxing Hu, empty, the last permanent building I saw throughout my journeyDay 5 (April 24), 19.8km, Camping 4951mSet off at 10.30 in the morning, the weather was similar to yesterday. Probably this road was the high plain or somewhere the wind passed so that it was so windy. The average wind speed was degree 6 but could reach degree 9 in the blick of an eye. The road was still full of sand and very heavy to walk on it. My eyes became worse under such harsh weather. About three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw something in my right, looked like antenna. I went closer to see what it was and found out it was an iron tower (the triangulation station). In 1970s, a joint team from Chinese three military regiments entered this area doing research. They have left a lot of triangulation stations and benchmarks, which I had the priviledge to see them today.At dusk, I approached to a spring by the Bungdag Co, which flew into the frozon lake. The sand and soil, brought by the strong wind, scattered on the surface of the ice all over the lake. There were so many cracks around the icey surface of the lake. I geussed it must be caused by the springs under the water rather than by melted ice. In the west of the Bungdag Co was the side path leading to Keriya Pass, where a SUV could reach directly. I had looked out any vehicle Tracks but failed. The cloudy sky started to snow. I set up the tent comfortably because I knew that I was safe having such a sweet spring beside me.Triangulation station erected by scientists from the joint research team on Chang Tang of three military regiments in 1971[size=+0]The gap between water and ice in Bungdag Co, I guessed there must be some springs under the lakeThe storm just above the ground, a chaotic darkness[size=+0]Icy Bungdag Co,one of the four biggest lakes in Northern Tibet, wild ducks flying over this vastness and lonenessSnowing at any time, should not happen so frequently like this in this seasonDay 6 (April 25), 4.3km, Camping 5002mWeathering landforms everywhere around this area. Spongy volcanic rocks could be found easily. I pushed my bike turning around a small hill, seeing a big river, the Yinshui He, flowing from Orba Co into Bungdag Co, which I had been to its upstream last year. It was also a passage for animal migration. The downstream of the river was extremely wide and broad. The thickess of the ice layer could reach one meter with the main stem in the middle course of the river, very deep. There were a few springs along the river, sweet and clear.I only went forward a little bit more than 4km but I had walked more than 20km for finding my way. It was not possible to cross the main stem, let alone the north bank of Bungdad Co. What I could only do was to try to find a shallow place to cross. But the southern area was a even larger piece of wetland and forced the road turn towards west. I spent a couple of hours but failed to find a good point to cross the river. In the afternoon, I decided to follow the edge of the wetland. When I reached the hill foot, the wetland finally disappeared. Around this area, there were clearly volcanic feature of terrain and I even found traces of pasturing and cairns made from volcanic rock.Here was the last pasturing trace I found throughout my journey, I guessed it was a summer pasture area. After this, there was no clear sign of human activities in this vast wilderness. I had been looking for my ways until it was dark. I made up my mind where to go TOMOrrow. The terrain here looked like Yardang landforms, as well as volcanic landforms The Yinshui He river from Orba CoSprings scattered all over the river bank, painted green by lovely algaeThe river was very deep. The mixture of green and amber colour showed the sand and mud carried by the melted iceThick layer of ice, sunken surface caused by strong gustsThe south course of the Yinshui He, countless small streams. To the right was the wetlandLooking for ways in the east, a trace of pasturing and the cairn made from spongy volcanic rocksMy camp, opposite to the hillDay 7 (April 26), 11km, Camping 5009mI moved forward to the direction I found yesterday, turning around the wetland and walking toward east. At 2pm, I was blocked by the zigzag Yinshui He again and I had no choice but to cross it. The river was about 700m wide, covered by ice which appeared very different. The hanging ice, the folding ice, the piling-up ice, the icy puddle, and the sleet were everywhere along the river bank. Having noticed all of these, I reckoned the river would be receding at dusk, which was why there were so many different shapes and forms of ice. I put my slipper on, going into the main stream of the river. I found there were at least three different courses of the river, the thickness of the surface ice varied and the river water reached above my knees. I sighed there would be no way back once I crossed this river. There are many ways in one's life too, you can only take it once and you will no long have the courage to repeat it.I pushed the bike crossing the river. Some of the ice was a bit soft, jamming the tyres so that I had to use my feet to break them first. Some of the ice was a bit thick but with half-melted underneath, sticking the the bike completely, some of the ice was half-water half-ice with a sandy riverbed, which was really hard to pass. I had to remove all of the panniers at the last stage of the crossing. I spent the whole four hours to cross the river, my legs got many bloody cuts. At 6pm, the surface ice was almost disappeared completely, the river level rapidly rising to a chaotic status. I thought if I hesitated a little bit at that time, I could not have the courage to cross this river under such circumstances. The river bank was unimaginably sandy and was quite steep. I had to unloaded the panniers again to reach the top of the bank. By the time of sunset, the weather became exceptionally good. The sunlight from the descending sun, the blue sky, the faint moon, .... I liked such a colorful and peaceful Chang Tang and very much enjoyed my camp and myself bathed in such beautiful colour.The ice like this was very thin and suspended, far away from the main stemHard surface with half-melted underneath, the soft sand at the botton was most scaryThe ice like this could easily jam the wheels, hard to get it outI had to unload the panniersChaotic water and terrible hails turned up in no timeThe Chang Tang at the moment liked it used to be,a mixture of cold and warm tones under the golden setting sun Day 8 (April 27), 14.6km, Camping 5112mLast night, I forgot to bring in the odometer, which was out of order due to the coldness in midnight. Since then I used GPS to check the mileage. The digital thermometer was no longer working. I had to use mercury thermometer to collect data. Night temperatures were basically between –15℃—–20℃ while the temperature inside my tent was about –10℃. The advantage of the integrated tent was that it limited the ventilation so to keep warm inside. However, it got clearly disadvantage of heavy condensation and dew. Every morning, there was plenty of frost inside the tent so that I had to put my hood on First Before fully getting dressed. The winds in Chang Tang finally became consistent with the pattern I had researched the other day no or very tiny wind in the morning, strong wind started after 2pm, and then at around 8pm its strength was reduced again. The accuracy of this prediction was about 80%.The road was very bad today. I walked whole afternoon in an ancient riverbed and it was so difficult that I had to use all of my strengths to move a small step forward and then to stop to breath, slower than a snail. After five hours' struggling, my eyes got wet when I saw the grassy river bank. Finally! The nightmare was over.Cold and clear morningHeavy morning condensation in the interior, a lot of frost to clearSuch dawning sunlight indicated a cloudy day ahead Day 9 (April 28), 18km, 5072mIn the morning I entered a range of sandy roads which were so terrible. The solar panel specially designed for GPS got short circuited. After checking it was found to be the diode got damaged. Luckily I got a replacement. Because the GPS was exclusively supplied by a solar panel so that it was no longer a problem for the power supplement of GPS. In a period of 70 days, I did replace the battery once, which saved me a lot of alkaline batteries. I did have another solar panel of 5.4 W which was used specifically for 7.5V Camera, DV and other digital facilities. Unlike water, I had never been short of power.At 7pm in the evening, I arrived at Pur Co. The surface of this lake was very odd the ice by the river bank rose and the river bank was broken, I reckoned that was due to the strong winds. The ice there was mingled with something yellow, could be the stain of alkali. There were many wild yaks on the other side of the lake. There could be two brown bears but I could not be for certain. On the east side of the lake, there was a peninsula leading to the centre of the lake. I camped just opposite to the peninsula. At night , I smashed the ice to get drinking water, which tasted alkali. For the first time I cooked the cereals, which was brought completely by accident. This was just because I found there was a little bit of extra space when I was in Nagri packing the stuff for this journey so that I bought two packs of cereals. It tasted disgusting, probably there was too much alkali in the water. I threw away half of it. Later I realised that probably I subconsciously felt that the provisions was so heavy. I would rather make it lighter at any cost.Dry all my stuff in the morning sun, a routine matterA faint dusk in Pur CoThe river bank pushed up by ice and opened like zipper by gustsThe pushed up surface of the iceThe place where I got my drinking water, a thin layer of ice behind the ablation corns The moment just before sun set, glittering Pur Co, nothing was the same差点儿没找到俺自己的帖子，原来变色了。多谢各位鼓励。 Day 10 (April 29), 16km, Camping 5141mIn the morning, I walked around the north bank of the Pur Co， where it were continuous ups and downs sprinkled with light yellow sprouts across the sparse grassland. The wild yaks clustered into small groups. All of a sudden, there was a group of five of them running towards me, blowing a huge cloud of dust with the power of thunderbolts,I believed that anyone who did not know the characters of the wild yaks must be frightened to death under such circumstances. The fact was the wild yaks in groups never injured people. Rushing to you just to show you its territory. When they approached people at certain distance, they would turn sharply and run away, and then stopped somewhere high to stare at you. You can not imagine that the wild yaks were very cautious animals compared with its almost one ton of weight. Their first reaction, when meeting people, was to raise their tails, the front hooves rubbing against the ground, the horns pointing forward, the eyes redden, and the long body hair shaking, all of which showed their determination to fight.This was the warning sign that you should retreat. However, you should realise that this was only a gesture that they were afraid of you and wanted to scare you away. The thing was that if you were not afraid of them and moved forward, they would run away in no time. There were only some mad yaks attacking people, which was really rare to happen. In Chang Tang, an experienced driver know that it is very dangerous to pass directly from two or three lonely wild yaks. They always tried to avoid confronting them directly. If this was not possible, they would lit a cigarette, smoking, to wait until the yaks walked away themselves. This was because the wild yaks really could attack vehicles, which was not completely rumors. I once asked them why I had not been attacked. They told me that because my bike was so small they would not be bothered to attack it. My own experience was that approaching a wild yak very slowly, do not look into its eyes, and ignored what it was doing. As long as it moved forward a little bit, just stop and give the yaks a little bit of time to think. Because if you forced the yak, it could be themost dangerous animal in the world and nothing could stop them killing. Even a gunshot could not kill it but only left a small hole in its skin. In the past, the nomads living near this land would use yaks' skin as chopping board which was very much endurable. At noon, I lost my balacLAVA, which was brand new and I had never used it once. I could not be bothered to go back tofind it. This resulted in that I had to have my fleece hat day and night in the rest of my journey, which did not provide fully protection from the sun in the plateau. But somehow I was all right, perhaps because my skin is similar to those of yaks, lol. At around half past one, I found a deserted Jeep, upside down. I felt it could be there for years and it could be the vehicle of someillegal HUNTERs. Nowadays, we have wildlife conservation reserves in Chang Tang and the animals here are well protected. However, some people kills the wild yaks to sell them as the domestic yak's meat. In general, it is worth 10,000 Chinese yuans for a single wild yak. Therefore many people take the risk to make money. They often enter the unpopulated areas to hunt and their activities can reach 200 km in diameter. This is why the wild yaks in the deep wilderness are less afraid of people than thoseat the boundaries of the Chang Tang region.There once happened that a wild yak mother revenged its baby's murder in the Altun mountains. Its horns pierced the killer's chest and held his body over its head for more than ten days, which was very touching.Around 3pm, I walked out of the Pur basin. The next point was Hong Shan Daban and then it was the Yueya Hu by the Toze Gangri. At this time I found a vehicle track from south to north. I checked over but could not find the way where they had gone. I took my map, GPS, and compass, climbing up a small hill to estimate the location of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30)， 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evaluate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for?

方怡璇放点片花，先吸引一下眼球【先预览一下~】【写在开始前】 子辰打来电话的那个早上，我连牙都还没有刷，正在给阿呆做着早饭。 挂了之后也并没反应过来，脑子里只剩下几个关键词语：南美、自驾、40号公路、不要钱！又呆了几分钟后，我就只记得不要钱了。（高的家伙是小马，矮的家伙就是阿呆哈哈~） 小广告一下，我们的微信公众号往下看哈哈（最右边就是我们在沙溪的家了~） 还以为拥有充足的时间准备，因为计划的行程开始是15年的3月27，收到消息的时候连14年都还没有跨过去呢，但哪知道工作上的事情正好特别多，一直到出发前我都还没有做功课，只知道这次要去的地方应该是地球上直线距离最远的了，脑袋里一片浆糊就跟着走了，以至于下面对线路和行程的整理，完全是回来后才搞明白的......线路及自驾说明【线路及自驾说明】为什么选择40号公路？相比较美国那几条耳熟能详的自驾线路来说，阿根廷的自驾线路鲜有人知。说实话，当初接到子辰兄的电话让我做行程安排的时候，我才第一听说40号公路，在网上能查到的关于它的自驾攻略几乎没有。但它在外国旅行者中，特别是摩托骑士口中，就像朝圣之路一般，为什么呢？来看看我下面的介绍吧~ 安第斯山脉是世界上最长的山脉 ，从北到南蜿蜒七千多公里，构成了整个南美大陆的脊梁，山脉本身也是阿根挺和智利两国的天然国界线。在山的东侧，有一条全长近五千公里的公路，自阿根挺南部的火地岛向北一直到达玻利维亚边界，大多数时候与安第斯山脉平行。公路经过阿根廷的3个大区11个省份，跨过18条主要河流，13个大湖和盐湖，有桥梁236座，沿途经过20个国家公园和保护区，包括南美最高峰阿空加瓜登山大本营，并连接27个安第斯山过境山口，这就是被称为世界上最荒凉的阿根廷40号公路。 切．格瓦拉曾在23岁时，骑着他的诺顿500驶入40号公路，开始了他的旅程并写下了《骑士日记》。后来这段故事还被改编为电影。（科普完毕，我也是网上看来的~） 而这次我们是从布宜诺斯艾利斯出发，由东向西跟随7号公路然后在门多萨向南转入40号公路。整个行程我们将作为子辰兄的摄影助理同行，这也就是为什么免费的原因了。（实线是自驾线路，全程是4000多公里，虚线是飞行线路。由于没有办理智利证，所以车子无法跨越智利国土去到乌斯怀亚，只能是从埃尔卡拉法特飞到了乌斯怀亚。）（没有任何意外的话，这是我进行过最长途跋涉的一次旅行了，为了到达目的地，我们从沙溪——丽江——北京——多哈——圣保罗——布宜诺斯艾利斯，光在飞机上坐着就耗费了30多个小时，很多次不知道白天黑夜，对于目的地的兴奋感早都被消磨完了。） 算起来也是第二次在国外自驾（第一次是在土耳其沿地中海自驾，就是上一篇烂尾的游记，因为没时间实在写不下去了。。。），但是之前也说了没时间准备，所以关于租车、证件、路况等等都一无所知，好在子辰和小马在出发前做足了准备，我也得以拿来整理如下： 关于驾照：阿根廷是认可国际驾照的，但我没有~ 所以驾照就是去公证处公证一份西班牙语的翻译件即可。 关于租车：由于我们的车辆是旅行社直接提供的，所以我不知道具体的费用，不过在阿根廷安飞士和赫兹我都有看到，所以租车是完全没问的。 关于加油：阿根廷大部分的车辆是柴油动力，而柴油的价格因为地区、品质和不同的加油站的区别，价格在1到2美元不等。柴油型号也是多种多样，我们一路基本都是添加的EURO。 关于路况：现在的40号公路较以前已经改观了很多，这一路上，80%的路面都已进行了硬化，剩下的20%虽是弹石路，但也较为平整。 关于过路费：一路上只有在7号公路上遭遇过收费站，不论是高速还是国道，比国内的收费稍便宜一些。转入40号公路上没有任何收费。 其它注意事项： 1、阿根廷只要是行驶在路上的车辆，都是全天开大灯的，不过当然是近光，远光灯去死~ 2、在跨越一些省界的时候会有宪兵或者警察对车辆或行李进行检查，而有一些是要对车辆进行消毒处理的（过程不复杂~），也由一些是不能带水果过境的...... 3、路和交规和国内基本一致，除了绿灯不亮不能右转。 4、路况虽然不错，但是尽量不要开夜路，沿途野生动物太多，撞到牛啊马啊什么的一点也不稀奇。 5、不要超速，罚单很贵，因为我们被罚惨了。。。 6、上了40号公路后，看到加油站的话，就算还有半箱油也宁愿先加满，也不要问我为什么知道~ 对了，还有关于汇兑：我们是在国内换好了美金，但是在阿根廷银行里换的话只有1：8.5左右，也由攻略说在布宜诺斯艾利斯的弗罗里达大街换可以到1：12左右，但是很多人说会换到假币，并且用不完的钱拿回银行也换不回美金，综合考虑到安全和便捷的问，我们一直是找导游换的1：10，在一些店铺是可以直接使用美金购买的，1：11的样子，也可以进行兑换，不过只兑换50和100的面额。 其他的我暂时也想不起来，如果大家有什么问，我一定知无不言~(根据上面的行程看来，大家应该也明白了，我们这次的行程时间很紧，每两地之间的路程都很遥远，大部分的时间都是在车上看风景了。。。）人和物的介绍【人和物的介绍】 说了这么多，下面就介绍一下这次同行的已经是好基友的和在行程中变成了好基友的队友们~ 小马，江湖人称马哥，这个蚂蜂窝账号是她的，是的，现在不是她在写，是她分配给我在写~ 因为她是我媳妇，我也没办法。 我们被别人组了一个组合叫“猴年马月”......自从认识她后我就跟着她玩了好多地方，是的，我是她的小跟班~ 她常年在玩，这会她在楼下玩阿呆，作为资深的玩家，她不写的原因用她的话说就是她有更重要的事情要做，所以这会她应该是在谋划下一次旅行或者是正在盯着某一家航空公司的特价机票两眼冒光~ 还有就是，上一篇烂尾的土耳其自驾游记，责任在她哈哈...... 子辰，某知名网站编辑，我们只在“猴年马月”的婚礼上见过一面，第二面就直接是这次在首都机场T3了。 深度文艺中年，旅行途中带了两本书，一本丢了，另一本看了两页。 因自诩风光摄影师，而本姓李，所以偶尔我会昧着良心叫他“安塞尔.亚当李”，一般是在他买单前后~ 关于这次的旅行他也会在汽车之家的论坛里发布游记，当然我们的角度肯定是不一样的，因为他183CM，我168CM（什么都不要说~），我们看到的世界完全不同~ 而且他放言要在游记里每天写死我一次，我期待看到我的各种死法~ 为什么要写死我？因为当他自诩纪实摄影师的时候，我没有叫他“李布列松”~ 由于我就带了一个小相机，而且是35定焦不能换头的，所以以下如果有一些展示不出来的我就借用了子辰的照片，为了区分，我的加了水印。 我，名怿昀，大家都叫我猴子，这个我本来是不愿意的，不能你叫我猴子我就叫猴子啊，我也得觉得好听才行，可是因为我本姓侯，所以Duang的一下，大家都叫我猴子了。随着这些年越发无法卖萌，那些嫌我老的人也就越来越多的叫我师兄或者猴哥~ 这也就自然变成了“猴年马月”组合~ 由于兴趣爱好过于广泛，自然精通的没有几样，平时就靠着拍照和设计混混日子。每一次的旅行都是跟着马哥混，成长自然是惊人的，至少我英语以前只会Yes和No，现在已经会You can you up了~Leo，我们这次行程的地接导游1号，除了中间有事离开了两天，都是他在陪着我们，据他自己说，我们这次的行程他和EX都来过，说多了都是泪，哎~ 自幼随父母从台湾移民阿根廷，完全融入了阿根廷的生活，现在已经发展成了国际倒爷，平时除了带游客走走看看，会把国内的小商品卖到阿根廷，再把阿根廷的红酒卖到国内~ 此人拥有一身练过又反弹了的肌肉，身高堪比“安塞尔.亚当李”，至今单身，在此征婚（我保证是他让我说的~）据说叫Leo的人都很自恋，听上去好像比较偏颇，但是这位Leo再次证明了这一论点。如果楼下也有叫Leo的不要怪我嘴贱，我也是听来的而已呵呵~小白，导游2号，在Leo有事的那几天与我们同行。自高中时来阿根廷留学，至今大学虽没毕业，婚倒是结了一个，说到这，得说说他的这个媳妇，反正我是没听明白，你们来分析分析：信仰古巴一个巫术小教派、出生在一个犹太教家庭、半阿根廷半法国血统、金发、职业是护士。没听明白吧？但听上去很不错的样子~ 当然他和我们分享的最多的还是结婚之前积累的各种经验，对于这些经验我无法一一道来，但是我们都建议他写一本《阿根廷各州各信仰各民族各肤色泡妞指南》，书名虽长，但一定很实用，而且一定要先给Leo看看~漫长的准备 仓促的开始 （从沙溪到布宜诺斯艾利斯）【漫长的准备 仓促的开始（从沙溪到布宜诺斯艾利斯）】 出发前的一个月，我总算有时间瞟了一眼地图，哎呀，我要从南走到北啊~ 不对，是从北走到南，但差不多啊，北面多热，南面多冷~ 这一路走下来温差可够大了，当下眼珠子一转，拨了朋友的电话，谁让他是搞户外用品的呢~ 就这样，还没开动，朋友就给赞助了衣服鞋子，而且都是顶级的~事实证明在世界尽头的冷风中给了我们十足的温暖啊，啥户外？神州户外啊！（毫无广告痕迹）下面还有二维码~~ 具体准备证的问就不详细再说了，我们的证是通过旅行社代办的，但是资料都是自己准备好的，后面免去了面也算是方便了很多。 就这样，拖拖拉拉的准备了4个月，期间我们和子辰连面都没见，直到出发的前一天，我们三个从三个不同的地方出发，马哥从沙溪到丽江找我会合后直奔机场飞向帝都。（以免又购买易碎品放在背包里收到挤压，特意买了个行李箱，我们自己设计的关于沙溪的贴纸也总算有地方贴了~） 我们乘坐的是卡塔尔航空的班机，凌晨2点起飞，子辰一直在忙着准备这个行程的各种资料，一直到起飞前1小时他才赶到机场和我们见面，要不是我们的护照还在他手里，我们早过关逛街去了，没办法等到他后直奔值机柜台。 就这样，我们出发了，在过关后去登机口的轻轨上我问子辰：关于行程，我们聊聊？；聊啥？就是我拍照，你也拍照，别的想到的再说，飞机上还有20多个小时呢~；......([]
