Summer trip to northwest
Yes, it’s me, the missing person has returned. When I opened this article, it was March 10, 2020. This article has been open for more than 10 months now, but I have only written three articles so far. I once boasted to Haikou that I would never fish for three days and dry the nets for two days. The facts proved that I am worthy of it. I really did not fish for three days and dry the nets for two days. This is worse than "exposed to the cold" Outrageous, simply a model in the procrastination world.
For this reason, I even gave myself a reason to comfort myself. It must be that studying medicine has exhausted my talents. After all, from February to August 1st, I have been taking senior Zhang Peng’s class, and there is a lot of time in between. Staying at home and reading is like living like a contemporary Kong Yiji. The most important thing is that is immune to garbage and ruins my youth.

So in order to relax and relieve the pressure of studying. I formed a team with 23, Good Hao and Yingying and went to Qinghai and Gansu for two days.
The earliest part of the trip was when Gu Hao came to stay at my house. Because we took a flight in the early morning of August 5th, Gu Hao came to our house to stay temporarily on August 3rd. As a result, Gu Hao and I stayed at our house the night before she came over. "My birthday is on August 4th!" My reaction was as follows:
So with my brain spinning at high speed, I quickly found the most suitable gift for Gu Hao - an electric toothbrush.
(Although it’s not a rhyme statement, it’s good if the meaning is conveyed)
(I also had a meal with Cong Lang and A Bo that day)
Since we are all students, we certainly took the attitude of saving as much as we can during this trip. In order to save hundreds of dollars on air tickets, we specifically chose the 6:30 a.m. flight, just to grab the wool. But there are unforeseen circumstances. As an old pigeon, there are bound to be bumps in the road of saving money...
On the first day we arrived in Xining. We originally thought of visiting the famous Buddhist temple Kumbum Monastery in Xining. I had visited Kumbum Monastery before when I was traveling with my family after the college entrance examination, so I was very interested in going to Kumbum Monastery. We are not very interested, and due to the epidemic, Kumbum Monastery cannot be opened to the public for the time being, so we can only "regrettably" cancel the visit to Kumbum Monastery.
Originally we had no schedule on August 5th, but on the 23rd, we contacted her classmate Wei Shunyang in Xining, so Shunyang took us to play together.
I really want to thank classmate Shunyang for his warm hospitality. Classmate Shunyang not only took us around the zoo in Xining, but also let us homeless people have a free dinner in the evening. Thank you very much.
During the meal, we also played script killing, and basically every time we came back with a big victory. As for why, couldn’t we win this game by catching Gu Haotou?
The next day we went to Sun Moon Mountain. It is said that Sun Moon Mountain was the gateway for Princess Wencheng to enter Tibet. It was here that the Tang Dynasty’s envoys met with Songtsen Gampo’s envoys. Beside Sun Moon Mountain there is a small river called Daotang River. Legend has it that This is a collection of tears shed by medical students of Sun Yat-sen University while studying medicine. However, we also jokingly call it the "Donghao River" of the Northwest
(Riyue Mountain)
There are quite a few hillsides here, and everyone likes to take photos on them.
(How about I help you set your feet)
Then we rushed to the Chaka Salt Lake without stopping. We originally thought that the tickets to the Chaka Salt Lake would be more expensive, but we never expected that it was free for students in the Chaka Salt Lake. How wonderful!
But since it was already 6 pm when we arrived at Chaka Salt Lake, and it was a little rainy that day, the scenery looked a bit gloomy and not as beautiful as it looked online.
It was already nine o'clock in the evening after visiting Chaka Salt Lake, but the sky was still not dark, and it felt almost like six or seven o'clock in the afternoon in Guangzhou.
Afterwards, we simply had a meal and then returned to the hotel. I have to say that this hotel has the feel of the True Light Dormitory, so we are just frugal to the end.
I have seen this scene countless times in the two years I have lived in Zhenguang. I thought it was a common scene, but I didn't expect that I would still feel a little sad when it appeared again. The next day, the two girls said that they were a little noisy last night and didn't fall asleep, while Gu Hao and I slept well. Dead Pig Same, almost overslept, we are indeed old partners.
(Familiar picture, it’s an old partner)
On the third and fourth days, we went to Dachaidan. Dachaidan was generally very dry. When I went to bed at night, my mouth would wake me up and I would get up to drink water. The first scenic spot we visited in Dachaidan was the Emerald Lake. The Emerald Lake is actually a salt lake of different sizes and emerald green colors.
Because the sun is so strong in Daxiadan, sun protection measures must be taken very appropriately. When I posted on WeChat Moments, those who knew me knew that I was traveling in the northwest, while those who didn't thought I was Antarctic Expedition .
(Speaking of which, I really want to go to Antarctica)
We also went to a new Internet celebrity attraction, Dongtai Jinaier Lake. The most intuitive feeling I had at Dongtai Jinaier Lake was that there were so many aunts in red skirts here. Did I poke a hole in the red boy’s nest?
(Please zoom in and count how many aunts in red skirts there are)
But in terms of scenery, Dongtai Jinair Lake is very beautiful. The lake water is very clear and the view is very broad and unobstructed.
The wind here is also very strong, and 23's awareness of sun protection is obviously in a process of improvement.

Later we went to Yadan on the water, and Yadan landform refers to a wind-eroded landform in dry areas. It is a ground formed by earthy sediments from rivers and lakes. Through weathering, intermittent water erosion and wind erosion, it becomes A landform combination of wind-eroded mounds and wind-eroded depressions arranged parallel to the prevailing wind direction is formed. In human terms, there are hills with slopes in the desert.
Walking in the endless desert, watching the camel teams walking into the distance, I thought about whether merchants thousands of years ago were also running for a living like this. I couldn't help but feel a little sad when I thought about this.
When we went back, we also passed through the uninhabited land. Gu Hao and I also went on a small adventure in the uninhabited land.
On the fifth and sixth days, we left Dachaidan and went to Dunhuang. Our first stop in Dunhuang was to Yangguan. Yes, it was Wang Wei's "Send Off the Second Envoy of the Yuan Dynasty to Anxi" "There is no old friend when leaving Yangguan in the west" Yangguan in the middle.
And I also bought a customs clearance document here and paid a heavy IQ tax.
We also walked along the Yangguan Avenue of the ancient Silk Road and saw the "Yangguan Road" as the saying goes.
On the fifth night, we watched the drama "Seeing Dunhuang Again". I refused it at first because the drama I watched while traveling in Yunnan was simply boring to the point of making people want to sleep and the picture was Tickets are expensive, costing 300 yuan per person, so when someone recommended it, I subconsciously wanted to refuse. But under the strong recommendation of Aunt Lai, we watched this drama at 10 o'clock in the evening, and found that it was worth the money. This drama is really great and shocking!
On the morning of the sixth day, we went to the world-famous Mogao Grottoes. Since no photos are allowed inside the Mogao Grottoes, here are some photos from outside the Mogao Grottoes.
The Mogao Grottoes are large and small grottoes carved out of a cliff in Mingsha Mountain. There are probably more than 800 grottoes in it. There are more than 490 caves with murals and statues, and the rest are just places for monks to meditate and rest.
After visiting the Mogao Grottoes, we went to the Crescent Moon Spring in Mingsha Mountain. I originally thought about taking a photo of the Crescent Moon Spring in a helicopter, but what I never expected was...
This is really unexpected
But anyway, I took photos of Crescent Moon Spring and compared them with the photos Carmen took before.
Here I have to mention the bed and breakfast in Dunhuang. It is really wonderful. It also has a washing machine, dryer, and hot pot table. The most terrifying thing is that the hair dryer is actually a Dyson. I love it.
On the seventh day, we went to Zhangye and saw Colorful Danxia. However, it rained on the day we arrived at Colorful Danxia and the college issued a notice asking me to keep statistics on the students returning to school, so I didn’t do anything that day. It was frustrating that I had to urge some students to hand in documents while others were happily taking photos.
And I also found a wishing pavilion among the colorful danxia. I looked at the wishes on some wishing cards and found that most of them abused dogs, and I was scared.
On the eighth day, we returned to Xining. On the way, we also saw the Qilian Mountains mentioned many times in the geography test paper. I also rode a horse at one of the horse training grounds.
On the way, I also saw a funny warning next to a paid toilet.
Sure enough, everywhere is the first place to make money.
The above is my trip to the Northwest. The first question my mother asked me after returning home was "Do you think the Northwest is beautiful?" I replied without thinking, "Of course it is beautiful!" When my mother asked me When I was in Northwest America, what I thought of was the vast grasslands and boundless deserts. The best adjective is broad, but at this time I compared Guangzhou, where I had lived for decades, with the Northwest. It is absolutely impossible to see such a magnificent and vast landscape in Guangzhou, but in the small space of your own in Guangzhou, there is something that the boundless beauty cannot replace.
The above is the entire text. I feel that it is not easy to read this, because the middle content is a bit boring, but I also try my best to tell my journey. Thank you all for being able to read this.
