D30 Kashi~Artush Tianmen~Suyoke~Kashgar
Go to Tianmen first today. In 1932, the American journalist Xia Helageou visited this place accompanied by the local Uighur guide Usman Ahong. In 1947, British explorer Shipton hunted here. This “Tianmen” stands on the Pamir Plateau, in the shape of “∩”, about 100 meters wide and more than 500 meters high, and its thickness cannot be measured. It stands like a Tianmen standing in the wilderness. , although it is under the blue sky, most of the time it is in the clouds and mist, forming a natural natural landscape, uncanny workmanship, created by heaven and earth.
On the right wall of the gate of heaven, there is a stone hole like a beehive, and you can hear an echo when you speak in front of it. The surface of the left wall is like a mural of all kinds of strange things. The surface of the left wall is like a mural of all kinds of strange things. I don’t know whether it is man-made or natural. It can be called uncanny workmanship! Passers-by took pictures here as souvenirs. Standing in the middle of Tianmen, anyone’s words will echo here.
Every morning, each shop sends people out to practice.
The spacious valley mouth, to Tianmen, starts from a very spacious grand canyon and walks in. After several steps, the canyon becomes narrower and narrower.
The mouth of the valley begins to narrow
What kind of mouse is this? It has such a long beard!
The Tianmen is too high, and the 24mm wide-angle can’t take a full picture. In addition, it was cloudy and windy that day, so I didn’t take many pictures because it was too cold.
Too high, 24mm wide-angle diagonal shot.
look back the way you came
Mountains are made of this kind of soil and rocks.
Suyoke Village belongs to Tuoyun Township, Wuqia County, Kizilsu Kirgiz Autonomous Prefecture, on the border between China and Kyrgyzstan. The village of Suyoke marked on the map has been moved eastward for more than 10 kilometers and is closer to the road. I followed the navigation and drove directly to the barracks. A captain officer came out and was very unfriendly (maybe because my car rushed into the barracks directly and was led in by the navigation), I asked him if he knew how to get to Quanhua, and he asked me: “Do you think I know? “
Why do you have to go here? Because there is a pure natural soda water spring with zero pollution, and there is no industry or agriculture in the surrounding 50km.
This family has been guarding the border here for decades, and now it is the son’s generation. They are ethnic minorities, and it is difficult to communicate in Mandarin.
The big mountain in front is the border, and there is no sentry post because no one comes.
Can you see that the calcification stone is covered with water?
The water temperature of the spring is estimated to be 4-5 degrees.
The surrounding environment is very cold (mainly due to the high temperature in Kashgar), and places where the water flows slowly are frozen.
When the veteran saw the car approaching, he habitually stood at attention and saluted. It takes more than half an hour for a family to drive to the nearest Suyoke village, which is really called dedication.
To get in and out of Quanhua, you have to cross a small river that is not too deep. It turns out that a bridge was washed away by the flood this year.
It took nearly 150 minutes to arrive at the checkpoint in Bayinkuluti Township (the speed limit is not allowed to run), and there are more than 20 kilometers to go on the expressway.
