The "spring" found here by the whites is nothing more than a small pond of rainwater, but it is this pond that is the source of the Arendt's survival. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoRed soil, deserts, telegraph stations, and "springs" come together to be life.

In fact, many times when traveling, it is only that moment that moves you. An Qingju and Yunluo were deeply impressed by Bobtaylor's Aboriginal dinner at the MbantuaDinnertour on the last night of Alice Springs because of his enthusiasm for travel.

His knowledge of Aboriginal culture, his love of the profession of chef and his boundless sincerity. Bob is an Aboriginal tour guide and chef who is also the owner of RTTOUR.

At 4 p.m., Bob arrived at the hotel to pick up An Qingju and Yunluo, a dark-skinned, kind-looking and healthy Aboriginal from ArretepeopleofCentral Australia. His English was very good, and he told An Qingju and Yunluo that he was actually sent to a white school when he was a child.

And went to university in Sydney, because he loves cooking and cooking, so he returned to Alice Springs to open this aboriginal RT travel agency, hoping to let tourists understand the Aboriginal culture and food culture of Australia through his own efforts.

Today's journey started at 4 a.m. and ended with Bob's dinner at nearly 10 p.m., a long day and a short one. In this empty, silent desert night, the body is tired but the heart does not sleep; Looking up at the night sky, a meteor crossed by, and it was too late to catch it with the camera, so I only made a wish silently; This wish is now getting closer and closer to the clouds falling.

Leave Alice Springs. An Qingju and Yunluo embarked on the first 4WD desert journey in the Red Clay Central Desert, passing through the world-famous "Red Center Highway" to their next destination, Kingscanyon (nearly 400 kilometers). The road is full of magical and varied desert scenery.

In particular, you will pass by WestMacdonnell National Park, which is home to many ancient landscapes that have been built over hundreds of millions of years, such as Glenhelenge Canyon, Simpson Rift and ElleryCreek Bighole.

In places like Ormistonge, where even the wildflowers are wild, they show the otherworldly power of nature. Suddenly, a cool lake or two and clusters of green trees will emerge, making you forget that you are in the desert.

Along the way, a variety of peculiar geological landscapes show the past years of the earth, and also convey the traces of the aboriginal people's past years to An Qingju and Yunluo. It is said that in the legends of the Arrete aborigines. The Simpsons Rift is home to the ancestors of a group of Australian monitor lizards called rungutjirpa.

The Ellery Caves, known by their Aboriginal name Udepata, have a steady stream of water that makes them a specific meeting place for the Arendt Aborigines. The beautiful, shady canyons in the park are the best refuge for a variety of flora and fauna. Therefore. It is home to some of the world's most unique plants, and even species left over from the tropical forest past.

Cycads such as the MacDonald Mountains are common in the northern part of the park and in the Rungutjirpa Mountains. Wildlife also makes this place a paradise, and many rare birds, such as peregrine falcons, call home here.

On this journey from Alice Springs - Imperial Valley - Uluru, An Qingju and Yunluo joined a group of Chinese tourism in Uluru, Australia, and their family is the only Chinese local tour company that has obtained the Northern Territory tourism qualification certification.

The tour guide who came to pick up An Qingju and Yunluo, Owen, is a human being, and he is currently the only qualified tour guide who has obtained the Ulurukata Tjuta National Park. A wild ride through the Red Centre. Departure from Alice Springs Hotel begins at 10 a.m.

Desert plants that cannot be named flourish on this road; Inadvertently, you will meet busy spiny horned lizards; See the springs running between the canyons; Catch a glimpse of the Ice-Tailed Eagle, the king of the skies of the inland desert.

On this road. You can't use a regular car, only a 4WD four-wheel drive car can race on such a wild desert road! The big Isuzu above is the car that led An Qingju and Yunluo through the red soil desert.

The road on which the car drove through. Rolling up the red dust and flying, it reminded Yunluo of the song "Red Dust Rolling". However, such lingering red dust is not suitable for singing on this road.

Ormiston Gorge is a must-stop from Alice Springs to Uluru, and it's hard to believe it's in a desert area. There are still people swimming wildly in the water hole here. Yunluo admires such wildness.

The best way to get to the Valley of the Kings is on foot, and in the desert you never want to be exposed to the sun in the middle of the day, so the best time to climb the Valley of the Kings is early in the morning and late in the evening. So the next day, An Qingju and Yunluo got up at 5:30 and made an appointment with the tour guide Owen to climb the Valley of the Kings at 6:00.

The hike to the Valley of the Kings usually takes 3 hours, and Owen specially instructed An Qingju and Yunluo to bring enough water, because the desert is most afraid of water shortage.

With a length of more than 1,000 meters and a height difference of 270 meters, the Valley of the Kings is the deepest, steepest and most spectacular canyon in Australia, known as the "Grand Canyon of Australia" and one of the most worthwhile attractions in Watarrka National Park.

With huge drops, almost vertical cliffs, and huge "scars" that seem to have been split by a knife, the extraordinary momentum of the Valley of the Kings is indeed worthy of its domineering name.

Standing in front of this canyon that has passed through more than 300 million years, the vicissitudes of history, the weight of the years, the power of nature, everything is breathtaking, and the sky seems to be much lower than what you usually see, as if it is overhead, within reach.

The rocks of the Valley of the Kings are layered on top of each other and have impressive shapes. As long as you are willing to explore and give full play to your imagination, you can find rocks of various shapes and memories of the Valley of the Kings.

The Valley of the Kings is a spectacular red color, but when you look closer, you can see that the rocks are more colorful, white, red, and purple, as if they had been dreaming for 300 million years. Few people would have imagined that such a rugged and majestic canyon would hide an oasis called Gardenofeden.

Rows of natural water holes, lush green desert plants, and red canyon cliffs make it hard to believe you're in the middle of Australia's desert.

Climbing the Valley of the Kings is in the early morning after a rainy day, the rain in the desert comes and goes quickly, and An Qingju and Yunluo need to complete the 3-hour hike to the Valley of the Kings before the sun scorchs. The Valley of the Kings was discovered by explorers at the beginning of the last century and has since been seen as a challenging place for both professional and amateur explorers.

In addition to the primitive fault staircase, what An Qingju and Yunluo can walk is the steep plank road seen on the map.

However, fortunately, just when they were a little visually fatigued by the scorching red, An Qingju and Yunluo were always surprised to find a deep valley suddenly emerging in front of them, a piece of green, a pool of clear pools, like a Garden of Eden in the desert. The one wearing a hat and a shirt in the picture above is An Qingju and Yunluo's Owen tour guide.

When Yunluo sighed that he was so lucky to be able to witness the changes of heaven and earth for hundreds of millions of years, the occasional desert lizard or rock kangaroo, as well as those ancient plants that inadvertently fell into view, all rushed to show off the tenacity of life to people.

Here, the sky is above, close and within reach. It seemed to hear the panting and accelerated heartbeat as the clouds fell as they climbed the mountain. And then there's the layers, or the patchwork, or the immortal greens that dot the canyon.

The limestone cliffs on the summit of the Valley of the Kings are rich in iron and turn orange-red after oxidation. The orange-red limestone has regular checkerboard-shaped cracks after sun and rain. As weathering continues to increase, the edges of the cracks wear away, slowly forming the appearance of the current round mounds or beehives, like immovable sand dunes.

After about three hours, a huge rock jumped into front of me in vain, a little stunned: is this the legendary center of the world?

This is the world's largest and oldest red monolithic rock, and he has been telling the legend of this land in the heart of Australia, and Yunluo has been close to him more than once in his dreams, and now he can finally listen to his heartbeat by his side.

Crossing through to the coveted Uluru (Ayers Rock), a little hard to believe your eyes, Uluru, Australia's only natural and cultural heritage site, mysterious, spectacular, gorgeous...... I can't describe all of it, right in front of you.

Uluru (Ayers Rock) is the world's largest monolithic rock, reaching a height of 348 metres and a circumference of 94 kilometres. The ochre-red rocks rise abruptly over the empty desert, piercing the sky, like the giant red heart of Australia, standing to the left of the centre of Australia.

With a high iron content of up to 30%, Uluru Ayers Rock is simply a huge iron ore. There are many theories as to why Uluru changes colour, but geologists conclude that it has something to do with its structure.

Ayers Rock is mainly composed of red gravel with a very high iron content, and the oxides on the surface of the rock change color when exposed to different angles of sunlight throughout the day. This wonderful change of light and shadow adds infinite fantasy and magic to Ayers Rock. (To be continued.) (lwxs520。 ))
