Laji Mountain | The mountain does not see me, I go to see the mountain

Of course, I have to come to Laji Mountain, each season has its unique beauty. The first time I saw the snow mountain, I was very excited. Now in November, you must wear a down jacket to go up to Laji Mountain, the wind is very strong, and the scenery is certainly worth it. Riyue Mountain is the place where the legend says Princess Wencheng broke her mirror, and it is also a must-pass place for the Northwest Grand Loop, with an altitude of 3520 meters. The five-color prayer flags here are the never-withering flowers on the plateau.

Laji Mountain is a point where the altitude of the northwestern ring road is high. In the rainy days, the wind and rain fall into the winter. The lamb was warm and unbearable, and it could not stop. Travel, the weather is very important, it determines what kind of scenery you can see, and can even affect your mood of the day. When you meet a cloudy day, you can say that a lot of big movies can't be photographed. But as an unknown travel blogger, how can you be beaten by these people? It is very important to learn to find music. Don't care too much to look forward to a certain day. The scenery, because in the end, the impression that is the deepest is always on the road. In the face of the climate of different days in Qinghai, just play, there is a warm jacket, the mood can be adjusted, it is not a joke.

When I came to the grassland and walked into the herdsmen's house in the village of Dazha, the succulent mutton cooked in the traditional copper stove was the best hospitality. The hand-picked mutton is the traditional diet of the Qinghai herdsmen. Because it is directly grabbed by the hand, it is not too greasy, the meat is tender and not sloppy. It is different from the taste of the mutton in the hinterland of the mainland. It is a food that has to be tasted in Xining, Qinghai. one. As the Romans do, they come to the grasslands. It is the best way to eat large bowls of meat. In addition to lamb, blood sausage is also a must-try. Blood sausage, salt, diced green onion, a small amount of water and flour into the sheep blood, adjusted to plasma. Wash the sheep's lungs from the sheep's intestines three or four times. After washing, pour the plasma into the sheep's intestines, mix them with your hands, cook on the pot, mix with scallions, chives and so on. Most of the previous yurts were made of sticky hair, but the relative disassembly was not so convenient. Most of the herders today are replaced by cloth. In the yurt, there is a hot steaming stove, and there is a big fire. When the herdsmen see us, we warmly invite us to sit down and give us a pure kumiss.

Laji Mountain is located in the eastern section of the Qilian Mountains in Qinghai Province, China, between the Qinshui Valley and the Yellow River Valley, with an average elevation of 3,500-4,000 meters. The Tibetan name of the Laji Mountain is called Gongmaola, which means that the chicken (Shiji) inhabits it. It is also said that the translation into Chinese is where the eagle can't fly. The northwest-southeast of the La Ridge Mountains. The northwest is connected to the southwestern part of Riyue Mountain, and the southeast extends to the south of Guanting Yellow River in the southern part of Minhe County. The Laguna Mountain is 170 kilometers long and 20-30 kilometers wide. The highest peak of Machang Mountain is as high as 4,484 meters. At the peak of 4,000 meters above the Laji Mountain, there are remains of ancient glacial landforms such as ice buckets, peaks and ridges, which are covered with snow for most of the year. Sporadic distribution of forests, lush pastures, many excellent pastures, so along the way, you can see a lot of cattle and sheep are eating grass leisurely.

La Ridge Mountain is a must-see mountain in the northwest ring road. Of course, this is just a small hill for the latter trip. When I first saw the scriptures, I had some doubts in my heart: What are these colored small flags? Why do you often see it in Tibetan areas? Later, they told me that this is a way for Tibetan people to pray for blessings: every time the wind blows a prayer, it is a blessing. If the sister wants to take a photo with the scriptures, remember not to wear too much flowers.

That grass, the yellow flower, the song that flutters with the wind, the figure of a Tibetan gown... All the things in the imagination are wonderful, as if the grassland in the dream is a Taoyuan that is hard to find in the world. Looking at the flock of sheep that are grazing leisurely, the excitement has turned into silence, listening to flowers and flowers.
