This issue of "Sculpture Heroes Journey" looks for Locke's footsteps, drives on the road of Locke in the secret land of Gannan, feels the tires to hell, and the eyes on the paradise of the superb self-driving journey
The secret of Gannan-Locke Lulu
In 2017, , where is dad going, the program group walked into the secret realm of Zagana in Gannan, revealing the secrets of this undeveloped virgin land for everyone. With the rapid development of the tourism industry, in just two or three years, Zagana relied on the tourism industry to drive the economic development of the entire village.
Now I watch the sunrise among the crowds and live in the village of Daxing. The fairyland of the year was a little disappointed and I arrived at a pure commercial attraction for the first time. .
Fortunately, we are on the self-driving road to find some wonders. The "Rock Road" behind Zagana brings us infinite surprises due to its steep and extreme scenery! Become the most stunning part of the Gannan section of this trip.
Where is the road to Locke?
drive from the highest altitude village of Daba from Zaga to Zakulu, a small town on the edge of the Tao River ,The gravel road is about 150 kilometers in length; the whole road passes through the border between Ganchuan and Sichuan provinces and the junction of Tibetan, Han, Hui and other ethnic groups.
This area is located at the junction of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the Loess Plateau and the Sichuan Basin. The landscape of this land is diverse, with relics of Quaternary glacial landforms, huge rocky peaks, and deep and narrow canyons. , There are primitive and dense forests.
The infinite scenery is on the dangerous peak, and the scenery and scenery coexist on the whole road. Forgive me for my thin words that cannot describe the excitement when we saw it.
The most pleasant part is the 80 kilometers from Zhagana to Niba Town in the middle of the Rock Road. The gravel road is built between the cliffs, and the cannonball pits and washboard roads overlap repeatedly.
In addition, this section has started construction and road repairs, and most of the places are in no-man’s land, there is no mobile phone signal, and the dust is invincible. It took us more than 5 hours to turn back to Zagana. .
It can be said that the eyes go to heaven, the tires go to hell. Fortunately, the beautiful scenery is always online, and all the toss are worth it!
At this moment, the old driver handed over the steering wheel to the newcomer. During the journey for many days of practice, the younger sister’s car skills also made a qualitative leap.

The whole Rock Road, the most exciting scenery along the way is in the Guanggai Mountain area.
This place belongs to the Dieshan Mountain Range and is the world’s fourth-century glacier site. The glacier uses its majestic power to carve traces of time on the stone mountain. Because the entire mountain is gray-white in the sun, it will reflect light like a mirror when the light is good, and it is also called Shijingshan.
Arrived at the 4000-meter pass at the highest point. The earth-yellow gravel was piled into mani piles and crossed the hills. It was a shock that no one was waiting for!
When we climbed up the mountain, we suddenly realized the insignificance of the universe and the insignificance of the world. Can't help but sigh the magnificence of nature, marvel at its magical majesty, but also have the heroism of "walking the worst road and seeing the most beautiful scenery"!
as the last stop in the journey,That afternoon, we finally didn't have to rush Luca time. Sitting on the grassy slope at the foot of the mountain, there was no one everywhere, the quiet valley was blowing soft wind, and he looked up at the eagle hitting the sky.
Saying goodbye to mobile phone signals, time seems to be stretched infinitely at this moment!
I couldn't find the answer when I was young, and occasionally get lost when I was middle-aged, so let's take a look at the world! Find freedom and breakthroughs in brave attempts, and the world will respond to you.
Every young man who is not willing to be mediocre is looking for his own world. No matter when you leave, it is not too late. May youth live up to hard work, time live up to yourself, the most beautiful scenery will be waiting for you at the next corner!
