Beautiful snow mountains 美丽的雪山

Ben Zi Lan 奔子栏
After seeing the beautiful Daocheng-Ya Ding Scenic Park, we returned to Xiangcheng en route to Ben Zi Lan, a town perching on the bank of JinSha River (literally means River of golden sands), which separate Sichuan and Yunnan.

Ben Zi Lan is an important town on the historical Tea & Horse Road in Yunnan.

We put up a night in Ben Zi Lan and left for De Qin after breakfast.

The 110 km mountain roads took us almost whole day cover. We made many stops to take pictures and to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

From Ben Zin Lan at 1900 meters, we traveled bumpy and winding mountain roads to reach the highest point at 4300 meters to view the magnificent Bai Ma (white horse) snowy mountain.

Then we traveled downhill and saw the most beautiful snow mountain of Yunnan, the Meili Snow Mountain.

We reached De Qin at night. It was freezing cold.

Bai Ma snow mountain 白马雪山

到过了景致优美的稻城-亚丁风景区后,我们回到乡城住宿一晚,续程往奔子栏前进。奔子栏着落在金沙江边,是四川进入云南的第一个市镇,也是到白马雪山必经之路。

奔子栏是茶马古道进入西藏的一个咽喉重镇。

我们在奔子栏住宿一晚,早餐后,就离开前往德钦。

奔子栏到德钦大约110公里,但我们却用了一整天来完成,因为我们停歇很多地方,拍摄照片,及欣赏美景。

从海拔1900米的奔子栏,我们经过颠簸及弯曲的山路,抵达高约4300米的丫口,与雄伟的白马雪山,面对面相见。

接着,我们就下坡,在傍晚时分,观赏了夕阳西下时,云南最美丽的雪山 - 梅里雪山。这是全世界唯一没人征服的雪山。

抵达德钦,已经是晚上了,天气寒冷。
