Don’t say you don’t love islands just because you don’t like Dongji Island;

Don’t say you don’t love the desert just because you don’t like Kubuqi;

Don’t say you don’t love lakes just because you don’t like Lugu Lake;

Don’t say that you don’t love mountains just because you don’t like Siguniang Mountain;

Don’t say you don’t love forests just because you don’t like Daxinganling;

Don’t say you don’t love the sea just because you don’t like Beidaihe;

Don't say you don't love humans just because you don't like someone.

Islands, deserts, lakes, mountains, forests, seas, human beings, these words themselves are without any fault. Flaws are the qualifiers in front of these words. Not everyone is lucky enough to be able to say that they have climbed the sea or except Wushan. If they want to climb a mountain, they can directly point their sword at K2. Just like we always need to experience many unremarkable islands before we can finally move towards the destined mountain. On the island, you need to experience a lot of ordinary love before you can finally join the person you are destined to spend a lifetime with...

Traveling to me is about the process of perceiving certain unknown worlds, going with the flow without fear. I prefer to call my way of traveling a "road trip". This kind of trip has no specific destination, but connects one beautiful scene after another in a line while the wheel is turning, and in this way I experience the world. , it is undoubtedly full of great temptation for me, and it also avoids excessive expectations for a certain scenic spot during the trip, as well as disappointment caused by many factors such as weather and man-made factors...

The trip lasted 31 days and passed through Shandong, Henan, Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, Xinjiang, Tibet, Ningxia, Shanxi, and Hebei, covering a distance of 17,000 kilometers. Departing from Qingdao on time at 9 a.m. on September 9, 2018. The first day was Luoyang, the second day was Dingxi, and the third day we arrived in Delingha, Qingdao in the afternoon. Every time when I plan my itinerary, I will deliberately avoid provincial capital cities. The main reason is that entering the city at night and leaving the city in the morning will catch up with the morning and evening peak hours, which will take a long time.

Everyone is amazed by Delingha at sunset, and from here on our photography equipment started to really come in handy. On the fourth day, from Delingha to Dachaidan, today’s journey is not far, because there are many beautiful scenery waiting for us to discover along the way. The first stop is planned to be at the alien ruins. On the way, we will pass two lakes-Koluk Lake and Tuosu Lake. These are two beautiful scenery that are easily overlooked. However, due to excessive rain this year, the road collapsed and the alien site was closed. However, because we were here in October last year, there are only too many regrets!

Continuing on the road, we arrived at Dachaidan at about one o'clock. Our destination was Dachaidan Hu, which is more than ten kilometers away from Dachaidan Town and is also called Emerald Lake because of its emerald green water. When you see these two spiers, it means you've arrived.

By the way: During this 31-day trip, tickets to attractions cost a total of 35 yuan per person (Atush Tianmen) and all other scenic spots are free. After coming out of Emerald Lake, we returned to Dachaidan Town, settled in the hotel, put down our luggage, and continued driving to Nanbaxian. This is a large uninhabited land of Yadan landform.

It was already dark when we returned to Dachaidan Town in the evening. We drank, ate, and slept. Tomorrow we will continue to move along the 315 National Highway...
