Daocheng Yading in Sichuan Province China, reputed as the final Shangri-la in the world, was my 2012 China trip destination. To see the beauty of Daocheng Yading in different season., I come here again at early chill Spring of Feb
At this time of DaoCheng Yading, no wild flowers throughout the land when Spring coming, even no golden leaves in Autumn just less colour ornament, 3 holly Mts show their forceful under blue sky.
After come to Yading Chonggu temple, I get a strong altitude sickness although I have never got such reaction before, hheadache like dehiscence. Although i imply in my heart again and again that altitude sickness is only human psychological factor, but still can not get over this pain
Not dare to go in depth, I just take photos as much as possible what I saw Yading in Winter.
In my memory I came here twice in Summer and Autumn in 2006, the road is gravel road, In the past few years after that, the road repaired, and in view of the most beautiful places have built Guan Guang Tai.
Standing here, you can see the Avalokiteshvara Hymn Mt . ---one of 3 Yading holy Mountains saw in bird eye view
Avalokiteshvara Hymn, is the head of the peak of Yading area, No. 5 mountain in Sicuan,(elevation 6032 meters), means bodhisattva. Local Tibetan’s friends said, Avalokiteshvara Hymn, this transliteration is not good, appropriate translation should for "Xian Nai Re".
This is the first holy Mt. when we come to Chonggu Temple.
Avalokiteshvara Hymn is just like a statue of the gracious Buddha, sitting on the lotus throne. In front of her that mountain is Vajrayogini, her left side of the pyramid is crossing the white Tara, and her right is green Tara which wave prayer flags. Next to Green Tara are much ice corrosion which we call Xiang xiang mu and Voices fairy. According to the legend,
They play the soothing sounds, spread to the valley behind the Avalokiteshvara Hymn which makes the sinners in hell to relieve pain, persuasive voice, remove repent, leave early from suffering.
At the foot of Avalokiteshvara Hymn, prayer flags waving with wind
Chonggu temple
The elevation of Chongu temple is 3880 meters, located at foot of Avalokiteshvara Hymn. It is not only the way must be passed to visit three holy Mts. But also the starts point for local Tibetan revolving around holy mountains ceremony
Chonggu temple was built in Yuan dynasty, so far more than 800 years, and in the temple at the opposite before hillside, presently shamanism, managed by gonggar temple. There were two firs at this temple, now only broken wall there. There is a house with two floors besides the ancient temple, a lama who responsible for the management for passgers accomodation and protection of surrounding ecological environment. The 1st layer is guest rooms and lama rooms, second is scripture hall. Tourist can not go to the second floor. Lama will incense and chant buddhist scripture every morning and aftenroon, at this time voice of patter and drum echoed, in the quiet valley, make here more sacred and mysterious.
Standing in frond of Chong temple, looks forward, can see the second holy mountain--l CHANODUG.
Chonggu lawn is a natural bonsai, mainly made by grass, forests, streams and MaNeDui, standing here can see the magnificent of Avalokiteshvara Hymn and CHANODUG which will make you really feel the nature of magnificent, beauty, and magic.
