Qinghai Yushu Tourist Attractions
Qinghai Yushu Tourist Attractions are vast in territory and abundant in natural resources, and the terrain is even more complex and diverse. Many beautiful places are sacred places where no one has set foot, waiting for the arrival of someone who has a destiny. Let's share the tourist attractions of Qinghai Yushu.
Qinghai Yushu tourist attraction 1
Yushu is located at the source of the Three Rivers in the hinterland of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the southwest of Qinghai Province. It is known as "the source of rivers, the land of famous mountains, the land of yaks, the hometown of singing and dancing", "the ancient road of Tang and Fan" and "the water tower of China". Princess Wencheng Temple, Longbaotan Nature Reserve, and Lebagou are the most famous scenic spots in Yushu. The overlapping peaks have kept the beauty, simplicity and magic of this land safe to this day, adding to her weight. The people here are riding Ma Rufeng with swords, dressed in gorgeous clothes and dancing gracefully.
After crossing the Tanggula Mountain, the Hoh Xil Nature Reserve
will gradually approach Hoh Xil. The beautiful Hoh Xil is located in Qinghai, bordering on Tanggula Mountain in the south, Xizang Autonomous Region in the west, and Xinjiang Uygur in the northwest. It is more than 411 kilometers long from east to west and 281 kilometers wide from north to south, with a total area of 83,111 square kilometers. The no-man's land in Hoh Xil is also the third largest in the world and the largest in China.
In the no-man's land, you may encounter the early morning sunshine on the ice and snow fields in the volcanic valley, or you may occasionally meet the Tibetan antelopes and enjoy their light posture and watery eyes.
When the snowstorm is around, you can't see anything, which is particularly spectacular, but when it clears up, the sunshine on the road will shed endless Yuan Ye. Passing through Hoh Xil is the hometown of Tibetan antelope. The team members patrolling the mountain made a whistling sound with their lives. This whistling sound is a life-and-death concerto, which contains all things, and entrusts the team members with their feelings for heaven and earth and respect for life.
Tang-Fan Ancient Road
The Tang-Fan Ancient Road is a very famous traffic avenue in the ancient history of China, and it is also the only way for the Central Plains to go to Qinghai, Tibet, Nepal, India and other countries since the Tang Dynasty. It starts from Xi 'an (Chang 'an) in Shaanxi, passes through Gansu and Qinghai, and reaches Lhasa (Luodian) in Tibet, with a total length of more than 3,111 kilometers. The whole ancient road crosses the western part of China, crosses the world-famous roof, and connects the friendly neighbors in the southwest of China, so it is also known as the South Silk Road.
More than 1,311 years ago, in order to repair the Sino-Tibetan relationship, a 16-year-old teenage girl traveled for three years from the warm and fertile Guanzhong Plain, crossed the four provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu and Qinghai-Tibet, climbed mountains, overcame the high and cold, conquered 3,111 kilometers, and came to the cold and dry Tibetan Tubo country to be close to her relatives. Since then, her relatives have been far away, and her inner feelings of loneliness and yearning can be imagined.
This road is the ancient Tang-Fan Road, and the well-dressed Tang woman is Princess Wencheng.
Princess Wencheng Temple
Princess Wencheng Temple is located in Benagou, 21 kilometers south of Jiegu Town, Yushu Prefecture, and 839 kilometers away from Xining, the capital of Qinghai Province. There are obvious signs on the road from Jiegu Town to Yushu Batang Airport.
Princess Wencheng Temple faces south, with its back against the steep rock wall, next to Qingxi, which flows to the bottom and tastes like nectar, and facing Batang Mountain, where shrubs are dripping green, green grass is abundant and birds are singing and flowers are fragrant. In the middle, a stone's throw, canyons are winding and gravel is everywhere. Due to the quiet environment, beautiful scenery and mild and pleasant climate, Bainagou is regarded by local people as a rare "paradise" on the Yushu Plateau.
Jiegu Temple
Located in the east of Jiegu Town, Yushu, Jiegu Temple is famous for its magnificent architecture, numerous monks, rich cultural relics and many eminent monks and disciples in Tibetan areas of China. The temples and monasteries are strewn at random, towering above the hills. The Mani Stone Piles in Jiegu Temple are famous in the world. In his later years, Jiana, the first world, settled in xinzhai village, Town East, and built Mani Piles here, which were called "Jiana Mani Piles" and "Xinzhai Mani Piles". With the passage of time, the pile of mani stones here is getting bigger and bigger. Over the past 211 years, more than 2.5 billion pieces of mani stones have been piled up, which is called "the largest mani pile in the world" and has become an outstanding representative of Tibetan religious culture.
Gaer Temple
Gaer Temple is located in Bamai Village, Baizha Township, Nangqian County, Yushu Prefecture, Qinghai Province, facing Tibet across the mountain.
the upper temple of Gaer Temple is towering into the sky. The north of the mountain is full of strange peaks and cliffs, and the cold wind is chilly. Gaer Temple seems to be embedded in it. The south is slightly sloping, warm and sunny. Looking up, I saw the Gaer Temple, which seems to be real and unreal under the clear sky of Wan Li, like a castle in the air. The colorful prayer flags all over the mountain are flying in the wind until the top of the mountain.
Sanjiangyuan Nature Reserve
how the Yellow River's waters move out of heaven, Sanjiangyuan area is a water world. The unique ecological environment creates a unique high-altitude and large-area plateau wetland ecosystem in the world, and the surrounding mountains are conducive to local precipitation, so that the semi-arid climate zone with high terrain, cold climate and weak atmospheric water-holding capacity can also store the water of life.
