The Twenty-first Minimalist Journey to the West
August 2, 2019. Departing from Yining this morning, the target is Alashankou City, a total distance of 309 kilometers. Passing through Huiyuan Ancient City, Khorgos Port, Net Red Dot Guozigou Bridge, Sailim Lake, and arriving at Alashankou City at 6:30 pm.
There are three sayings today:
Huiyuan Ancient City (惠遠城): Located in Huocheng County, Ili, Xinjiang, historically Ili is an important passage from Xinjiang to Central Asia, qianlong in the Qing Dynasty in order to strengthen the governance of the Ili region, set up general Ili here, built Huiyuan City, and successively built eight satellite cities around it, collectively known as the "Nine Cities of Ili". The name "Huiyuan" is the name given by the Qianlong Emperor himself, which means to take the grace of the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty to benefit the distant places. After visiting the exhibition hall, the biggest feeling is that today there is the magnificence of xinjiang, and there are still remarkable points in the Qing Dynasty.
The second is xinjiang's tourist attractions. The scenery of Xinjiang is beautiful, but the management idea makes it obvious that it is money-centered, not people-centered. The beautiful scenery is circled, the visitor center is located 40 or 50 kilometers away from the scenic spot, and then tourists spend 70 or 80 or more money to take the scenic car into the scenic spot, and the mind and body are suffering. Figure 4 is a 30-year-old secretly photographed at the port, do you recognize which? Figure 7 is a spectacular scene of the parking lot of the Sailim Lake Scenic Area, I think many people will be thundered, and will not spend 70 yuan ticket plus 75 yuan round-trip ticket to swim in the lake. We didn't go in anyway. The complaining is suspended, so as not to be suspected of being delusional.
Three said a woman riding alone. In the evening, we went to visit the Alashankou port, and when we took pictures, we met a woman who rode here from Hunan (Picture 5), and learned that they had originally walked together with the three of them, and then she was left alone for various reasons. In fact, in China, a considerable number of people cannot understand this kind of thing. There is a saying: Life is a long road, but the coming day is not long. If some things are not done when you want to do them, or if they are not done for various reasons, the likely result is that you may not be able to do them in this lifetime. It's called: regret.
