My travel to the silk road----part two

21.10.2006

We arrived at Tianchi Lake—our first destination at 10:00 am. Locating on the mountainside, and 120 kilometers away from Urumqi, it is an outstanding beauty spot characterized by high snow-capped mountains, lakes, and firs. Lacking of time, we chose to get onto mountain by autobus instead of walking. TianchiLake scenery, well known as Tianchi eight scenic spots, is concentrated with Tianchi Lake, surrounded by group of mountains, and densely covered by spruce. It was cool in the valley when we walked close to Tianchi Lake, it feels much greater if you take a yacht to touch the air on the lake. From the Calcinations Mountain on the altiplano Gobi to the cool fairyland all of a sudden, we were all on the scoop. Half an hour later, we were reluctant to leave and then took cable car to go down from the [http://www.achinatravel.com/china-travel/china-gansu-dunhuang-echoing-sand-mountain.asp]mountain[/url], stepping onto another route.
After leaving Tianchi Lake, presented us was a big straight asphalt road stretches towards horizon. There were limitless plateaus Gobi desert on the both sides of the road. The vehicle was running and the road was extending. We sang and joked all the way, appreciating the outside beauty of motherland’s northwest scene. We got through the fiery-red and beautiful flaming mountain, serene pastoral spot—Shiren slope. The car chased after the sun, turning toward north and then west. Gobi desert, dust, hot and dry surrounded us. Our former curiosity was exhausted in desolation of the boundless Gobi desert. After making a long hard journey, we felt exhausted and drowsy, and finally arrived in our destination—Bu’er Jin.
We rested for a whole night, at 9:00am, September 22th, we got the license of Hanasi and set out again, today’s destination is Hanasi lake-- the most north, national AAAA-level scenic area in Xinjiang chinese cuisine
