Wuwei/The wind on the mountaintop is the roar of warriors

Wuwei/The wind on the mountaintop is the roar of warriors Maya Snow Mountain, it was overcast when I went, it felt like World of Warcraft. Driving on the frozen river and snowy mountains was both worrying and fun. Seeing the white yak running happily, I felt unworthy of calling myself a beast of burden. Wushaoling Mountain, the climb was a bit difficult, altitude 3000+ meters, I already had altitude sickness. But standing at the starting point of the Hexi Corridor, the surrounding mountains seemed like those warriors, and the wind on the mountaintop was probably the echo of their roars from back then. Tiantishan Grottoes, the Great Buddha is unimaginably large, so large that I felt like an ant, instantly filled with piety and awe. The opposite Dahu Lake is covered with snow, neat and tidy, with a clear boundary with the distant mountains, curing my OCD.
