Summer is the best season to travel to Tibet, for those who fear the heat, going to Tibet to avoid the summer heat is definitely the best choice. The highest temperature in summer generally does not exceed 30 degrees Celsius. This place has a unique climate with snow-capped mountains and subtropical scenery. There are well-preserved original forest landscapes, known as "natural natural museums" and "natural green gene banks". There is the world's highest and deepest Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon, vast grasslands, and adorable Tibetan antelopes, wild yaks and other nationally rare wild animals.
Of course, summer is the peak tourist season in Tibet, which also means that prices are at their highest.
Mu Yang rode on the jujube red horse, now this horse already belongs to himself, seven thousand yuan was the deal, and a full set of horse gear was included, which saved Mu Yang a lot of trouble.
Muyang then prepared to ride alone to Namtso.
Muyang chose a route that was not along the G109 highway, but instead planned to ride his horse in a straight line across, this distance is approximately 200 kilometers, Muyang plans to complete it in 5 days and arrive at Namtso.
On the second day, Muyang saw Nian Qing on Mount Tanggula.
In front of him, a vast expanse of grassland unfolded. Mu Yang tightened his legs around the horse's belly, kicked with both feet, and the sorrel horse began to accelerate, the wind whizzing past his ears. Mu Yang narrowed his eyes, closed his mouth tightly, and leaned forward on the horseback, galloping with all his might.
This is the most suitable place for horses to gallop on the road of Muyang, how can I not let go once.
I don't know how far they ran, the horse was tired and Mu Yang was also tired. The horse stopped to rest, Mu Yang flipped over and got off the horse, and suddenly lay down on the grass.
Tibet is the place closest to the sun, Mu Yang lies on the grass with his eyes closed, enjoying the most authentic sunlight bath in the world, no, it's a sunset bath, because it's already afternoon now.
It's okay, actually Muyang overestimated himself. He had high altitude sickness in Tibet. It's better not to do such intense exercise there, after all, people from inland are still not quite adapted. Fortunately, Muyang is young.
The horse was grazing while walking, Mu Yang set up a tent and whistled softly at the horse. The sorrel horse raised its head, looked over here, then trotted over to Mu Yang's side, nuzzling his hand with its lips in a spoiled manner.
Muyang pulled out an apple from the space, split it in half, and placed one half on his palm. The horse understood and took it with its lips, then started crunching loudly. Muyang picked up the other half and also bit off more than half of it, starting to eat.
On the first day of entering the grassland, Muyang used a taming technique on Zao Hong Ma. At that time, he was mainly afraid that this horse would sneak away during sleep at night, and if it did, he would really be left to travel on foot in the vast Tibetan wilderness.
It's worth noting that Mu Yang's concern is not unfounded, as animals have a homing instinct. Who knows if the herdsman might already be waiting at home for his horse to return?
Muyang's hand stroked the horse's cheek, and the chestnut horse nodded excitedly. "Go play by yourself, don't run too far, you must come back before dark." Muyang said.
The horse seemed to understand Mu Yang's words and nodded its head before turning around and running away.
It's not that the horse is particularly smart, but rather it just understood Mu Yang's words. This horse was just an ordinary Tibetan horse, nothing special about it, except for the fact that the taming technique had a bit of magic to it, allowing animals to understand Mu Yang's meaning and carry out his commands.
Of course, if it's too complicated and beyond their capabilities, they definitely can't do it. But some simple ones, like the command Mu Yang just gave, they can completely understand and execute seriously. For animals, this is already extremely rare.
This is mainly because of the horse's IQ and ability, which can only be done to this extent. I estimate that if I encounter some smart animals, such as parrots or monkeys, I will be able to accomplish more things.
Cooked a pot of dishes with a pressure cooker, took out some instant noodles from the space, two cans of beer, and made up a pretty sumptuous dinner, at least by this standard in the wilderness of Tibet, it's absolutely considered good food.
On the third day, Muyu specially used GPS to clarify the route and arrived at Yangbajing, located on the south bank of Nyainqentanglha Mountain.
Arriving here also means that Moyang's journey is almost halfway through.
Yangbajain is located in the north of the 5,600-meter-high Nyainqentanglha Mountains, with snow-capped peaks all year round. After entering the basin, the whole land is filled with hot air, steam, and heat, with geothermal vents everywhere, and boiling springs, hot springs, warm springs, hot water lakes, and hydrothermal explosion holes can be seen everywhere.
This is already considered a key tourist area, so there are many tourists.
Muyang led the horse, looked around, felt the hot spring bath at Yangbajing, had a hearty lunch at a nearby restaurant in the afternoon, and rested comfortably for a night. The next day, he continued his journey.
On the fifth day, Muyang finally arrived at Namtso Lake.
The beauty of Tianchi is breathtaking and soul-stirring. The northern shore of the lake is the continuous Nyainqentanglha Mountains, although it's summer, the mountain top is still covered with white snow.
By the lake, there are many tourists taking pictures, and some local people set up small tents for tourists to stay in, as well as some tent-like small restaurants. However, Muyang is really worried about the sanitation here.
"Go find a place to play, and don't forget to come back after you've eaten your fill." The lakeside plain had good pasture grass, which was natural grazing land. Mu Yang believed that Zao Hong Ma would be able to eat its fill on its own.
Namtso means "Heavenly Lake", "Spiritual Lake" or "Divine Lake". It is a famous sacred site of Tibetan Buddhism, revered by believers as one of the four mighty lakes. It is also the place where Vajrayana's deity Chakrasamvara resides.
Muyang took out his camera and snapped photos all around. The sky was a brilliant blue with clouds like cotton, while the color of the lake water gave one a sense of shock. Standing by the lake, it felt as if you were in a world of blue - light blue, pale blue, grey-blue, sapphire blue, deep blue, and dark mysterious indigo. The blues were crystal clear, rich and luxuriant, enchanting.
A Tibetan man appeared in the lens, leading a yak and blocking Mu Yang's line of sight. Mu Yang put down his camera, and the Tibetan man walked over, saying in stiff Mandarin: "Take a photo? Ride on the yak to take a photo."
Mu Yang smiled and shook his head, saying: "No need, I'll just take a look at the scenery."
Muyang raised his camera, ready to continue taking pictures, but Hanshan blocked him again. "Take a picture? Ride the yak and take a picture."
Muyang now realizes that he probably ran into a local who was trying to swindle him.
"How much does it cost?" asked Mu Yang.
"Eighty years old, riding a yak for a photo."
"What if we don't take pictures?"
"We can't take pictures here."
Mu Yang felt a little displeased in his heart, but thinking again, such things are happening everywhere now, why bother to be angry about it.
"See you later." Muyang and Hanzi said goodbye and turned around to leave.
It's rare for someone like Muyang to be so direct and decisive, not arguing at all, just turning around and leaving. All he could do was shake his head and lead the yak away.
