【China。七彩雲南】20140726。麗江-瀘沽湖 Lijiang to Lugu Lake (1)

接著的五天,我們大部分時間都在路上,翻山越嶺,往海拔高度越來越高的目的地前進。因適逢雨季,許多路段塌方中斷,我們每天得繞遠路、走更險峻顛簸的山路。幸運的是,我們平安地走完每一段路程,也有緣欣賞更多迤邐的景色。26日,我們從麗江往寧蒗瀘沽湖去參觀高原湖泊和女兒國(摩梭文化),27日原路折返麗江,因省道有塌方,我們得繞鄉道,還得在12-14點之間經過阿海電站附近的施工地帶,時間抓得緊,沿途沒什麽停車休息,但風景超讚,尤其是綠油油的梯田,讓人驚嘆這蓄水造田的智慧和它造就的景觀。 The coming five days, we were travelling to higher and higher destinations. Due to raining season, many main roads were broken by landslides, and we needed to spend more time on the secondary or county roads to reach our destinations. But, to be honest, the scenics of the alternative ways were even more interesting…

麗江的東巴谷景區是這天的第二個景點。東巴谷位於玉龍雪山腳下,是個在造山運動中形成的斷裂谷。這裡是納西族的東巴文化之發源地,東巴文字也是現世唯一還活著的象形文字。這景區不大,主要介紹東巴文化和裸美樂大峽谷的景色。我們在雨中匆匆地走完景區,全程不到一個小時。 Dongba Valley, where the Naxi’s Dongba culture began, is our second destination of this day. Dongba’s hieroglyphs is the only hieroglyphs that still in use nowadays.
