Qiongguojie Temple

Qiongguojie Temple

Qiong Guojie means "the place where three rivers and four mountains meet" in Chinese. The three rivers all originate from the four sacred mountains around them. In the religious history and mythology, these four mountains are the incarnation of gods. It is said that the southern mountain is the hair of bandaram, the legendary protector of Tibet and the princess of Dalai Lama.

It is a necessary place for the pilgrimage to the holy lake of bairam La and can be used for lodging. It takes about 4-5 hours to walk or ride to the holy lake.

The original building was only zulacan (main hall), with five floors, 58 pillars and a golden roof. By the time of the fifth Dalai Lama, the Regent Diba sangjiejiacuo had expanded the temple to form a huge building complex covering an area of 4000 square meters. Outside the gate of qiongguojie temple, there is a stone tablet of "qiongguojie Temple annals", which was erected by the third Dalai Lama. In the Mani stone Buddha niche on the hillside behind the temple, there are footprints of the third Dalai Lama. On the grass outside the back door of the temple, there is a stone slab, which is highly respected by pilgrims. It is said that looking at the stone, one can see the image of making one's wish come true. Qiongguojie temple is located in cuijiu township of Jiacha County, which is the only way to Shenhu. Tourists to Shenhu usually stay here. In the morning of the next day, it takes about 2-3 hours to get to the famous Shenhu Lake by walking or riding. Qiongguojie temple has been renovated and expanded on behalf of the Dalai Lama. It has gradually become one of the summer palaces of the Dalai Lama and is known as the second palace.

Dabu xiazhulin temple - "xiazhulin" means the place for preaching and practicing. In 1300 ad, the living Buddha of luosangzaba moved baiding temple to buzhongba (the seat of the county), named Gama xiazhulin temple. In 1669, the ninth generation living Buddha Gama wangjiuduoji changed Gama xiazhulin temple from the original Kaju sect to Gelu sect (yellow Religion), and officially named it Dabu xiazhulin temple. Thus, it became the ancestral temple of Gelug Sect, the Tibetan Buddhism in Tibet. The temple worships the God of "Nengren king", and worships two Dharma protectors, namely, jieqingamachille and Jixiang Tianmu. Dabuxiazhulin Temple mainly preaches scriptures, and its debating scriptures has a great influence in Tibetan Buddhism.

Dalagangbu temple, built in 1121 ad, was founded by dabulaji sorang Renqin, the eldest disciple of Milarepa (founder of dabugaju sect).

Tour guide

Ramlaco in Tibetan means "the Soul Lake of the heavenly daughter". The lake is very small, only 2 square kilometers, but it is highly respected by believers because of its special status in Tibetan Buddhism. Every time before visiting reincarnated Lingtong of the Dalai Lama, Panchen Erdeni and other great living Buddhas, they would come here to observe the divination of the lake to receive the God's instructions. Moreover, every Dalai Lama would pay homage to the "God Lake". It is said that those who worship the lake can also see the past life and afterlife of the God metaphor from the illusory images of the lake.

The coach from village 5 of Jiacha was stopped when it arrived at Jiacha county. Fortunately, I got on a Toyata pickup. Qiongguojie Township, where ramlaco is located, is only 30km away from Jiacha county. However, the road condition is extremely poor. There is only a rural highway which is in disrepair and has no maintenance. The ground is uneven, which is a typical "washboard road". All the way, I was so worried that I finally got stuck in a section of road paved with stones and couldn't move. As a last resort, he had to go back to the nearest village to find a car.

This is village 5 of Jiacha township. We park our car in the center of the village and many Tibetans come out to watch. We were told that there was a truck going to "Shenhu" in the village. It left the next day, which meant that we would be trapped here for a whole day. That night, we stayed at the driver's home. His 80 year old mother was hospitable, but we couldn't speak any language. We could only express each other's kindness with gestures and smiles. She only spoke "butter tea" and "highland barley wine", so we drank a lot of butter tea and highland barley wine. The "living room" is the main house where the fire pool is located. The furnishings are very simple. The roof is smoky and there are no decorations on the walls. So I used chalk to draw eight treasures, a schoolbag and a plow painted by my little grandson. The strokes are simple and lovely. I can't help but sigh about their interest in simple life.

Two black yaks were on the same road. The next day, Dongfeng truck started with 30 or 40 people and some goods. On the way, two big black yaks were on the same road with us. They were very restless and always wanted to stick their heads out of the truck to bite the big rhododendrons on both sides of the road.

The car goes along a beautiful river with jagged rocks and clear water. You can see the swimming fish. In the distance, there are blue sky, snow mountain and grassland. It's like a paradise. In order to see the scenery, I stood up against the wind on the truck all the way. I was thrown up and down, left and right, and then I simply tied myself to the cross bar of the truck with the strap of my camera bag. This move is really very effective, to avoid the risk of being thrown out of the car, but the waist was strangled. Tibetans are always happy. They sing melodious songs and laugh happily every time there is a big bump, just like a game. After five hours of torture, he arrived at qiongguojie township.

To the wonderful place of Futian in the past——

In the morning, Qiong Guojie set out from Jiacha Township, which is more than 3000 meters above sea level.

All kinds of tents, big and small, were set up on the grassland.
