Active volcano - Chinese tourism scenic spots

In 1990, the Hoh Xil area formally launched a comprehensive scientific investigation. In order to ensure to find the "active", before we heard the Professor Li Bingyuan, carefully reviewed the relevant information to prepare a detailed topographic map and decided to expand the investigation and pay attention to all the new generation of regional distribution of volcanic rocks in the region's volcanic Structure. In particular, Wu Dan Le ramp is the Hoh Xil Lake area north of the Cenozoic volcanic rocks focus on distribution, but also the focus of our search for active volcano. However, poor natural and geographical conditions, severe hypoxia and high mountain plateau of the changing climate for the active search for the manufacturing operations of the difficulties one after another. July 17 , The team from the Xijir Lake Le ramp to the transfer of Hubei Wu Dan. The trip started smoothly, despite the team in the barren hills and stone in the desert wind forward more slowly, and fortunately almost a whole day without incident. But who would have thought just over the watershed, came to Wu Dan Le inclined upper reaches of the lake when the encounter unexpected trouble. Lake The upper reaches of a few kilometers wide on the beach, scores of large and small, silver-white water flow from west to east over diffuse white sand flows in the Great Lakes. Marked on the map of the route only during the winter season pass, check in advance last year, when the car left no trace of China and India already. Had no choice but to distance, while forward into the roadside, Yingchuang white beach! Is that when walking in the front ranks of the geological team of four vehicles a settlement can not move to live, we only have gained a better understanding of the terrible white beach! Here, only white sand and water, turn a wheel, water and sand left leave vehicles to use the opportunity to subsidence, Sanxialiangxia, the whole car sitting on the sand. We also dug out a stuck car Toss nearly 3 hours away from the other side there are about 500 meters, then everyone has the exhausted. On the other side is planned to camp, watching the sun Xi Chen, silver and shiny white beach darken gradually turn yellow, we can only wait for reinforcements unable to do anything. Fortunately, behind the line of vehicles to change from the more The local touched the white sandy beaches. When we see pulling the baggage tent card on the beach drove a white, North Korea is moving forward at camp, feel relieved off; in the past has been to see the inspection vehicles have been several break off our head, warm heart is more . 14 Zhuanghan in front of the rope and Latin America, few people even in the back To bring up, we put together, to simply make a white car on the beach! It seems that only by white sand test before they can set foot on the road to look for active volcano. Wu Dan Le ramp near the lake was a lot of volcanic rock. In the double-headed mountains, volcanic rock layer side was isolated mountain, like Eagle's Nest, like to wear in the mountains The hat, but found no signs of volcanic activity. Black hump in the area of volcanic rock was like being distributed in the lava at the top of the layer also see dozens of square meters of a hill near circular, red-like pore trachyandesite and volcanic residue composition, to highlight the ground ten meters, is A small lava fumaroles. The first is a direct blame The isolated hill several hundred meters. The roots of the hills to see the motley volcanic breccia - rock-and-Hill Construction lava flows have developed, mainly at the top of the massive black lava. Central Peak in a nearly circular low-lying land, filling in the middle of the crystallization of a better porphyrite Ansan, more than 10 meters wide outside the rock as a result of baking to become red, brown Black color, and so on. All of the evidence that the blame is the head of a small ancient crater, but we look forward to is not found in "active volcano." Looking for work to continue east into the Hoh Xil mountain, Malan Xuefeng Mountain and five in the vicinity. Although the number of days to find as a result of only seeing the ancient volcanic lava and rocks floating mottled, Seoul to see only a small amount of dark brown volcanic residue and more or less reduced the active volcano, we found that the warm, but the floods in southern bank of the investigation and we are excited to make up. Aug. 6, when we came to the region of Qinghai Geological Survey team has three units as a resident of a small hillside, we found there was a Volcanic body. At first glance, seen on the hillside of gray and development not only has the flow of lava-like pore structure, but there are some gray Huang stomatal development of a floating rock from the basic characteristics of the rock can be found they are a product of the late volcanic eruption. Here not only to add more features in the landscape as the remaining half of the crater Geographical location and its relatively close to the latitude and longitude of the foreign reports, we would very much hope that this is the dream of "active volcano" Yes. However, after careful investigation, we are once again disappointed. This "break" a small crater with a diameter of only ten meters, around and no evidence of any reservation in the near future Made of volcanic material, and this has obviously gone through a long period of weathering erosion, rocks, including those floating rock alteration has taken place, which is not more than a decade ago before the formation of the volcanic eruption. Although we very much hope that through our own work found that the youngest of the "active", although They also are willing to continue to look for it, but this time we have to make this conclusion: the Hoh Xil in 1973 there have been no volcanic eruption activity. First of all, we did not find any new product of volcanic activity, regardless of the landscape or volcanic eruption, such as the product does not exist; Second, the volcano is no ground for The traces, not only did not see a temperature anomaly, the formation of snow on top of the ice cap, small glaciers do not melt or reduced; Third, in 1971-1974 over the past few years, aerial photographs of the area being plotted on the ground Work has been published in terms of the use of topographical maps on or about the year reported Where no record of volcanic activity. Finally, we made a bold assumption: Feng Fei Quan of the new group has been mistaken for a volcanic eruption? East Lake is located in the sun, about 15 kilometers north latitude 35 � 38.0 'N 92 � 52.5' new Feng Fei Quan group exposed at an altitude of 5,000 m The right front, with an area of nearly 3,000 square kilometers, more than 100 Stephen hole around the clock to run steam jet, Yier Bai meters up to the formation of the smoke. According to our investigation and analysis, the group rarely seen quan Feiquan China, and in 1972 of plotting topographic maps on which there is not a tag that is typical of the landscape Point, it may be inferred Feiquan groups in recent decades and appears to form. If the correct inference, taking into account the early 1970s satellite positioning technology could limit or calculation errors are most likely to Feiquan column of steam jet mistakenly believe that when the formation of the volcanic eruption of smoke. In that case, Hoh Xil to find the "active" should come to an end the work.

For example, the wall skeleton and burial - Chinese tourism scenic spots

It shocked the world the skeleton wall, a solemn Tianzang Tai, the flight circled Yingjiu, unparalleled anywhere in the world face Tianzang Chang, a mysterious world, attracting numerous or coming out onto the Tibetan plateau.
However, in Tibet there are no skeletons in the end walls, and even many of the old Tibet, has only been heard and, There are several coming closer. Well-known Tibetan writer Ma Lihua in the "northern Tibet travel," a book of Tibet say with certainty that there is wall skeleton, in the northern Tibet, "many cards will become the sole preserve Tibet Tian Zangtai of the skull."

 
Search for burial and Tian Zangtai
A deep knowledge of Tibetan Studies Said to me: go and see the skeleton wall, which was supposed to end human. For example, to see if later in the county worked to shoot Mr. Cao Changjin a group of photos, I will never find the courage wall skeleton of northern Tibet.
From the seat of the Nagqu prefecture north of the city to the southeast of the town about 300 km away, that is, for example, county For example, the "mother of yak angle", was a legend here, "the mother yak tribal" settlers. Bodhidharma many card Tianzang Tai Temple is located on the western suburbs such as the county seat, the skeleton is also the location of the wall.
Burial is the most acceptable to the Tibetan people, Tibetan is the most common kind of Zangsu. Based on the ancient Tibetan Inferred sites, burial may have originated in the 7th century AD, some scholars believe that this form of burial by Kunga been cited by the creation. Straight Year in 1179 Goumba Ren Qinbei in Maizhokunggar County Zhi Gong place for the construction of the Zhi Gong Temple, and then to implement and improve the system of burial.


On the burial, that of Tibetan Buddhism, lit mulberry smoke is covered with colorful road and air are kindly invited to visit the mother Tianzang Tai, as the body offerings, presented the gods, pray for the dead to ransom during the lifetime of sins, the gods bring their soul To heaven. Tianzang Tai Sang smoke on the lead Yingjiu, in addition to eating the body, do not hurt any animals, Tibetan The "superbird scs." It is said that such a burial is to follow Buddha, "a tiger to die", Tibet is still so popular burial.
More card burial hospital in the middle, there is a size of about 4 square meters, paving stone from the body buried pool, a pool on the north side there are 60 cm high rectangular stones Is the burial of the body when parking. Burial in the hospital outside the South, erected around a 10-meter-high flagpole Jingfan, above a skull bone sculpture, hanging at the top of many faded Jingfan.
To send more cards to the dead Tianzang Tai, the body curled up, head to knee flexion, into a sitting position so that, with white Parcels were selected by the auspicious days back body will be sent to the body of Tian Zangtai, lit mulberry smoke caused Yingjiu, a further autopsy. Yingjiu because like meat, bones do not like to eat, the burial procedures on the use of flashback law, the first bone-feeding.

 
Skeleton of spirits intake wall
Tian Zangtai the whole house About more than 4000 square meters, about one four-week high walls, the wall in the West and repair the walls of a wooden stand, about four or five cells, each cell with all neatly arranged in a personal skull to form a long two-faced Skeleton wall, a skeleton skull of authority, people are sacred and deterrence sincerely amazing. It was then that I found out , The skeleton wall is a product of the burial.
In Tibet, all of the body after death Yingjiu Hey, do not stay, but the northern Tibet Dharma County, for example, a lot of cards Tianzang Tai Temple, to retain many of the deceased's skull, one of the world must move. Sub-text in his "World Tibet," wrote: up to the original wood (real One place. As Kim, the authors used different Chinese characters - Editor) Tianzang Tai is the skeleton walls on three sides, one high, as heavy rain later in a note the day, Cho-shui from rolling down a hill, down the wall of the Tian Zangtai. Now the two sides of the wall skeleton, with the rest of the skeleton in the last few decades slowly from Leiqi . Now the remaining two walls, only half of the original high.


Tian Zangtai yard of the west and south have a two door, Simon is out of the living, carrying the bodies of the south gate is the entrance to the north is a cottage, for chanting prayers for the deceased's Zhongseng use, also house a variety of worship Buddha And the scriptures. Go East and west sides of the plastic has a pagoda.
In many Tianzang Tai card with a secret garden - it is empty courtyard below, much like winter in northern China's food storage pits. Here all four sides and bottom of the base is built with stones from inside a plastic Buddha, a book store, religious and supplies offerings. The interest here is extremely low winter temperatures sometimes reached minus 37 degrees below. However, regardless of ice elsewhere in the body is much more solid, more in the cards as long as the pond's burial place overnight, the second day of Fed fully thawed, and to engage in normal burial, in which no one can say the reason is not clear. The mystery due to the existence of Make more far-card Tian Zangtai reputation. Many died in the vicinity of the county, have carried the dead to the burial here.


Jiang's one of the three separate human skull base of the wall Tian Zangtai
Tian Zangshi cards from many of the population that the whole of Tibet in the past had reservations about the skull of the deceased were three temples In addition to a lot of Dharma card Tianzang Tai Temple, there are on the opposite Dan Tianzang Tai Temple and the lack of near-generation Tianzang Tai Temple. As the three are Tianzang Tai County, for example, but also the reputation such as earthquake. Unfortunately, natural disasters or accidents, so that within three Tianzang Tai destroyed most of the skull. Until the early 80's, even if the government drop The religious policy, but on behalf of the lack of Tianzang Tai Temple is no longer continue to retain the skull of the deceased. Dan Temple of the original reservation on the part of the skull of the deceased, the "Cultural Revolution" during part of the local people who have been secretly buried underground, so far there is still a part of the skeleton preserved wall, but the size of the card more than Tianzang Tai skeleton of the great wall As a result of Dan Temple on Temple Dharma and only a Nujiang River is separated, on the north shore of Dan-Temple, the Temple on the south bank of Dharma, plus two Tianzang Tai Temple by management Tianzang Shi, a respected, usually by boat can hide from The two sides.
Well, here's why Tianzang Tai skull of the deceased to retain it? At present, many say But there are two types of the view that, as early as 80 years ago in a village in Qinghai have a little boy, he was 8 years old that year witnessed the killing 3 people, scared that he went to go such as County V Dabney Living Buddha in front. Dabney Living Buddha Dharma Temple office for his burial Tianzang Shi homes. As a result, he has all the dead Remove the corpses lost in the southeast corner of the burial house, until the skeleton has become, and then they picked up a code of good. His burial from the northeast corner of the house began to place the order, his 50-year-old Death, basically to place on the southwest corner. He was said to do so, because they are afraid that the killer into the death of burial Chinese Wu. Another, to retain the death of the Dalai Lama XIII, for example, by the County Rural lack Shannon song playing on behalf of the Temple Living & P Danba Wu Chu (also known as Ma-white white bar) set by the regulation temple the specific motive is not clear so far . Sub-text in the book: "Tian Zangshi Ngawang Tenzin, said: 'skull to stay, piled wall, is that the Commandment alive, more good deeds, Sunian rare, no matter who died Buguoruci. ' "


All will carry on, now more cards Tianzang Tai Temple Dharma artists have been named as the "skeleton of the pyramid," archaeologist aware of this anthropological research will be of great significance; is a writer It inscrutable philosophy and the legendary shock and infection. I just looked into a lot of cards, Tibetan Buddhism's profound philosophy did not dare to make improper comment, but one thing is very inspiring to me: Although today's burial in the eyes of the world is a strange Zangsu, but Tibetans through Burial will be the relationship between man and nature-up , As the local people's way of life unique to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the unique natural environment to adapt, burial is also a natural in Tibetans and coordinated development of a unique way to survive.
