We three girls together began our journey by car. |
Passing Guyuan County, we saw a huge Muslim tomb on
our way. |
|
|
Tomb of Ahong(Muslim). |
We were approaching Liupan Mountain and the altitude
was gradually increasing. We saw snow-capped on the top. |
|
|
Notice: Be careful, it is a steep road. |
It is foggy today. Fortunately, there was no snow on
the road. |
|
|
Several piles of sands at the side of road attracted
our attention. Our driver told us that those sands were
used to avoid sliding in winter.
|
Look, what a narrow path. |
|
|
It became a little sunny. We could see the
Red Army’s Long March Memorial on the top of the mountain. |
|
|
On the half mountainside, we entered the famous Liupan
Mountain Tunnel. |
The street lamps had red light, twinkling like stars. |
|
|
After about ten minutes’ drive, we reached the end of
tunnel. In a moment, we felt very bright in the front. |
Then, we invited the head of the administration of Liupan
Mountain Tunnel to introduce its basic situation. |
|
|
Passing through Liupan Mountain Tunnel,
there is only 7 km away from the mountain top. |
|
|
In the past, when there was no tunnel, it
was very difficult to climb on Liupan Mountain. We could
imagine how the Red Army climbed on the mountain by feet
in such a war period. |
|
|
The road we passed. |
On our way, we met a worker fixing safeguard at the
side of road. It was Jan 2-holiday. He gave up the rest
and worked in such a cold day to ensure the traveler’s
safety. We were deeply moved by his spirit. Did it Liupan
Spirit? |
|
|
We reached the top of Liupan Mountain. |
Beautiful Liupan |
