Tibet Travel Notes 4

Get up in morning in Batang, continue driving, cross Jinsha River and officially enter border of Tibet. I also entered more difficult and dangerous section of 318th line Sichuan-Tibet. There are dozens of kilometers of massage roads, and in some places it is still allowed to pass in one direction. This risk is much less. Vehicles jostled and moved slowly, and road construction sites even lined up to be released. After crossing Zongla Mountain and entering Mangkang County, surrounded by mountains, mountain barley on side of road turned yellow, and it was time to harvest. In afternoon, we continued climbing mountains and ridges, crossed Mount Lau, crossed Lancang River, and then crossed Jueba Mountains and Tonda Mountains at an altitude of 5130 meters. It's just that compared to cycling and hiking in Tibet, self-driving is really nothing to brag about. Looking at Tibetans walking in rain with heavy backpacks and the brave men rushing uphill towards Tibet, I sincerely admire their perseverance and determination. Is this also a kind of faith?
