Just use the beauty of Qinghai to heal all unhappiness!

Qinghai is like the silent female classmate in the class.

She has average grades and has never been the focus of the school, and her name is rarely found on various transcripts and honor bars.

As for herself, she didn’t care about it, she always looked like she was calm and calm, she didn’t fight or grab.

Compared with the top classmates, Qinghai’s presence is not strong.

Even when someone heard her name for the first time, they either nodded repeatedly and praised the beer, or envied the comfort of living by the sea, completely conflating her with the coastal city of Qingdao.

But to those who have witnessed her beauty, they all know that Qinghai can be regarded as a well-deserved white moonlight, even if it is simple and low-key, it can hardly conceal its own charm.

In terms of beauty, Qinghai is a natural beauty that is difficult to abandon. With a bowl of rice rewarded by God, you can stay in the school flower list without much trouble.

Whenever the July heats up, large tracts of rapeseed and Qinghai Lake complement each other, and from a distance, there are only flowers yellow, lake blue, sky blue and grass green;

Every time when the sky is clear, the Chaka Salt Lake is like a fairyland, the sky and the lake, the people and the shadows are both true and false, and you can take a small train and instantly cross into the world of Spirited Away;

The Emerald Lake is transformed into the eyeshadow tray of the seven fairies left behind on the earth. The green combinations of different saturations are on the earth. Only by witnessing can you believe that everything really exists…

Everyone who sets foot on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau will be intoxicated by the beautiful scenery, and can’t help feeling how small he is in this vast world.

And this is just a glimpse of everyone’s surprise.

The most fascinating place in Qinghai is far from the awe-inspiring brought by the good looks at first sight, but that she always makes people happy after a long time.

There is Qinghai in the northwest, which is independent from the world.

In 1988, Haizi took a train passing Delingha, looking at the Gobi in the darkness, he wrote this verse:“This is a desolate city in the rain, except for those who pass by and live.”

Haizi didn’t know. Today, 33 years later, Qinghai is as usual, except for those passing by and living, there are few other lively activities at all.

No way, Qinghai is too big.

There is a story circulating locally:

Two prisoners detained in Haibei Prefecture escaped from the prison. They went all the way to escape, but they did not encounter a place with humans for many days. When they were hunted down, they were both thirsty and starving.

Although the authenticity is unknown, it also fully illustrates the size of Qinghai.

Qinghai is as large as 1.49 Sichuan, but its population is only 70% of Sichuan. On the 109 National Highway, the distance between village and village, town and town is often nearly 100 kilometers.

If you travel to Qinghai, you will find that most of your time is spent on the road, and you will never see the turbulent crowds and tall buildings along the way, and there is a vast and wild world.

Such a vast expanse naturally created the desolation of Qinghai, and also nurtured the broad minds of the people of Qinghai.

There are 43 ethnic groups in Qinghai, among which the Tu and Salar are unique ethnic groups in the region.

In addition, there are many people from other provinces who come to do business and construction. They bring their cultures from all corners of the world to their homes and roots in Qinghai.

Different backgrounds, customs, and beliefs have undergone collisions and integrations from generation to generation.

In Xining, the provincial capital of Qinghai, there is the Taer Monastery of Tibetan Buddhism in the southwest, and the Dongguan Mosque of Islam in the east;

On the Qinghai people’s dining table, even though the materials on the plateau are scarce, they are still full of foods that blend with different places-sweet embryos, yak yogurt, casseroles, glutinous rice cakes, butter milk tea, casseroles, hand lamb…

Someone once said that Tibet is a disease, Xinjiang is an addiction, and Qinghai is a medicine.

This is also the charm of Qinghai. She can use the vastness and desolation of her own world and the unrestrained boldness of the people to quickly heal every soul struggling in the cracks.

Surrounded by its beautiful appearance, Qinghai deeply attracted people from afar with his movements and quietness.

The movement of Qinghai can allow explorers to continuously upgrade and fight monsters.

Even if it’s just to experience high reaction, it is not a small adventure.

In Wudaoliang, where the temperature is low and the soil mercury content is high, many people will be persuaded by the obvious altitude sickness. As a truck driver has summed up over the years: “When you arrive in Wudaoliang, you cry for your father and your mother.”

More advanced players can choose to ride the Qinghai-Tibet line or circle Qinghai Lake.

On the plateau, relying on his own will and endurance to fight the hardships of the plateau a little bit, even if he is small, he can reach the end.

More professional players, that is to climb mountains, climb to the top.

Qinghai has many snow-capped mountains with varying degrees of difficulty. Since the 1980s, a large number of professional climbers and enthusiasts at home and abroad have come to conquer and explore.

The tranquility of Qinghai attracts a large number of cultural people.

In terms of history, there are Princess Wencheng and Riyue Mountain in Qinghai. From here, she is no longer heartbroken, but has become more determined and rushed to Songtsan Gambo;

There is “Oriental Pompeii” in Qinghai, which records the disaster of an earthquake 4,000 years ago;

In terms of mythology, Qinghai has Kunlun Mountain, one of the top ten secrets in the world, where the horror story of “the gate of hell” was born;

In Qinghai, there is the Tongtian River, where the monk Tang took the scriptures and passed by. Here, the scriptures glued to the stone are left;

In terms of culture, Qinghai has the source of three rivers. From here, the Yangtze River, Yellow River and Lancang River rush out, watering the entire Chinese nation from ancient times to the present;

Qinghai has the Qinghai-Tibet Railway that witnessed the conquest of the plateau by mankind. Here, the Chinese overcame difficulties and built a sky road to bring convenience to Tibetan areas…

This is Qinghai, exuding a unique charm in the midst of movement and silence, which always makes people unable to resist walking over and over again.

This is not a preference, but Qinghai has long since broken away from the beauty of the skin, meeting the expectations of different people in the distance.

Even though Qinghai is always incompetent, the people of Qinghai don’t care how much GDP ranks. When summer comes, they call friends to go to Langshan, grill barbecues, and eat lamb.

In the face of big right and wrong, Qinghai is very rigid, and Qinghai people are even more rigid!

In Hoh Xil, no man’s land, there is a protection station called Sonan Dajie.

There is a small exhibition hall in the protection station. There are not many things on display, but it is also telling how Qinghai people protect Hoh Xil.

In 1994, on the way to escort 20 poachers and more than 1,800 Tibetan antelope skins, Sonam Dajie was attacked by criminals. Desperate poachers attacked frantically, and their gunshots echoed over the no-man’s land.

Sonam Dajie died. When the body was found, it had already been frozen into an ice sculpture in the midwinter of minus 40 degrees. He was only 40 years old that year.

In the past 27 years in a hurry, many Sonam Dajies still guarded, guarding their admiration for Sonan Dajie, and guarding the awe of living beings.

How easy is it to protect Hoh Xil?

The terrain here is complicated, hail, rain and snow appear randomly. Every time the car gets stuck, everyone in the car has to unload everything, dig out the car, and put it back in. When bad luck, the bottom of the car is not hot. I have to go down to dig a car again.

Working in a low-temperature no-man’s land all year round, the staff more or less suffer from arthritis, and their knees will feel painful when they walk more, but they just endure it. After all, the 45,000 square kilometers of no-man’s land requires them to record, There are too many patrols and rescues.

Although the staff will deliberately erase the dangerous situation at work, the family members in their patrols are always worried all day long. They can’t help but think about whether they have encountered brown bears, wild wolves, or even bison alone. Can you? Return safely.

Behind all the greatness, there are the silent contributions of ordinary individuals.

If it weren’t for them, there would always be people chasing Tibetan antelopes for a photo or video during the migration season; there would always be people driving through this no-man’s land in order to be able to brag in front of others.

The greatest charm of Qinghai is that the people here are in awe of nature and are able to give and give to other creatures.

It is exactly the same. After experiencing the continuous gunfire, Hoh Xil is still that beautiful green hill and beautiful girl in Tibetan.

Qinghai is very clean. It is one of the world’s four largest pollution-free ultra-clean areas, a kind of inherent purity.

However, with the hot tourism industry and the influx of a large number of tourists, it is no longer possible to guarantee this pure existence by nature alone.

On both sides of the Qinghai-Tibet Highway, the most mature tourist route, discarded plastic bags and plastic bottles can be seen everywhere. Their existence between heaven and earth is particularly dazzling.

Plastic products are difficult to degrade, which is a huge threat to the yak and sheep that have been in a state of stocking.

A herder cut open the abdomen of the dead yak and found that it was filled with rubbish.

Although the local herdsmen are regularly organized to pick up rubbish near the highway, there are also many tourists and volunteers involved, but in the face of the endless stream of tourists every day, their strength seems so weak and weak.

I don’t know, if such a problem is not resolved, will Qinghai still be the white moonlight fluttering in the air, it will be unforgettable at a glance.

I just hope that our children and grandchildren can still be healed by the beauty in front of them when they set foot on this land. Look at the indescribably blue sky and the mountains that go straight into the sky, as if they can hold their pockets when they reach out. In the clouds.
