Ngawa archive: Langmusi, Huanglong, Mt. Siguniang, Ruoergai, and Tibetan highlands. Scenic beauty, spiritual wellness, and personal reflections.
[Tiếng Việt ở phần dưới] Langmusi was very dusty even in the early morning because janitors in their full workwear with masks and long gloves sweeping everywhere. I could only see their eyes and their beautiful feather brooms. I started for what I thought the Sichuan side of the town, but couldn’t find the Hui … Read more
Really, Langmusi (Taktsang Lhamo according to Tibetans) was out of my initial plan. This was somewhere unplanned. Its name wasn’t in my last plan sheet in May. It was somehow a last minute decision. It turned out to be the best place of the journey. As we all stayed in one room with 2 beds, … Read more
After one third of the journey, I discovered that I was able to buy a ticket, make a reservation, ask for directions, order food, etc. with my improving Chinese.

I woke up early at around 4AM to be present at the nearest metro early. Turned out I was a lil bit early because I was there at 5:50AM just to find out that the metro would only be open at 6:06. I took more than half an hour to reach the Chadianzi Bus Station … Read more
We woke quite early this morning, then waited for the tour bus. But then a small van took us to another place where it started raining. The Chinese guy didn’t speak English so it was hard to understand about the Dujiangyan and Mt. Qingcheng history. And he tried to get more money from us. Turned … Read more
So I woke up early this morning to board the plane to Hanoi, in order to meet up with my 3 companions that I found online through a Facebook travel group. I might have got out of bed the wrong side, because I had a problem from the start. The VNA ground staff was very … Read more
