不可触碰撞的鱼The Ori Temple is located in Nangqian County, Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province. It is located on a mountain with an altitude of more than 3,700 meters, divided into Shang Temple and Xia Temple. The north of the mountain is full of strange peak cliffs and cold winds, but the south is slightly sloped and warm to the sun. Hundreds of buildings at the temple are irregularly distributed on this large hillside on the south side of the mountain, from bottom to top to the top. The temple has a history of nearly 1,000 years, and it is said that the master of lotus peanuts practiced in this town more than 700 years ago. The treasure of Zhensi is a pair of strange turn-round wheels, legendary for the Wencheng Princess into Tibet to marry Songzan Ganbu with a dowry. In this long time, the pair of turn-round wheels placed in the temple of the temple of the Ja'er Temple, and the two lamas are on duty day and night. The constant turn of the warp, accompanied by the Tibetans in the depths of the plateau, spent the autumn and rain. The peaks around the temple are in different shapes, in various shapes, some like balls, some like pillars, some like doors, some like walls, and some mountain stones like various animals. The whole tree on the top of the mountain is less, and occasionally a few trees are enough to be amazing. These weathered pine cypresses, a unique shape, beautiful posture, strong branches and leaves, strong personality, in the narrow slit of the strange stone, do not survive, fully show the beauty of life in nature. There are more colorful scriptures flying in the wind, hanging all over the mountains, winding everywhere, constantly, until the mountains. From the upper temple of the Ja'er Temple, I looked around and saw that the mountains were getting lower, Wanmujue was far away, the road was like a snake dance, the room was like a box, the water was like a mirror, the clouds were like smoke, and I was in person and I felt a hundred senses of my own. The geographical location of the Temple of the Psalm is relatively remote, surrounded by only 10 households, except for monks, other people rarely come here. The temple currently has three living Buddhas, because the monks in the monastery have been pursuing the idea of great mercy and equality of life advocated by Buddhism, for many years the monks have been living in harmony with the animals in the mountains and never killing. There live macaques, stone sheep, scorpion, yellow sheep, sika deer, elk, fox, wolf, snow leopard and other high-level animals and snow chicken, hemp chicken, brocade chicken, eagle, vulture, owl and other nearly 100 species of birds. On the 76-kilometer road from Nangqian to Gor Temple, the alpine pastures, ancient sun salt pools, virgin forests, forest streams are concentrated. The most rare is this section of the canyon forest landscape that is rare in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. From Nangqian, take the 214 national road to 1024 kilometers south and turn into the sandy road to Baizha Forest Farm, continue on about 25 roads, and then go west into Balonggou (also known as the Gorji Canyon), about 15 kilometers to the end of the canyon. The road to the temple is rugged and difficult to travel, and in the summer, it is more difficult to travel on rainy days, so it is best to drive an off-road vehicle. If you want to enjoy the cultural customs of the Jar Temple, enjoy the nearby natural scenery, and have close contact with wildlife, you need to stay in the local area. The accommodation can be borrowed from Bamai Township, not far from Balonggou, or you can borrow houses in the monastery.
