This is a travel strategy manual measured with feet, and it is also a hiking record full of thrills and worldly sentiments. With concise and interesting words and nearly a hundred pictures, the author vividly shows how a man who had no previous experience of hiking in the wild completed the feat of hiking 2,650 kilometers from Yinchuan to Lhasa with great perseverance in 97 days. Enjoy the baptism of sweat and wind and rain along the way, witness the peerless scenery of the vast and mysterious Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, breathe comfortably after fighting against fatigue, and experience the kindness and warmth of strangers. In the author's mind, Lhasa is not the destination. The customs, customs and inner training experienced along the way are the gifts gained from this trip.
Reader comments
When I first read the title, I felt that most of these hikers have low cultural levels and average literary talent. They just casually record what happened along the way. After reading it, I found that the author has great literary talent and is proficient in the history and culture of some ethnic minorities. He tells the stories that happened very well and the extended culture is also well written. This book is not long, but it is also worth reading, better than watching a two-hour short video!
See you arrive at the Potala Palace, congratulations on a true walking victory! It's really good. I'm envious. It's a pity that as an old man in his seventies, I have no intention and nothing to do!
Thumbs up for the author's extreme bravery and super physical ability! Perhaps, like me, many people also have a dream of "walking (biking) into Tibet". However, it is so difficult to realize it! Therefore, I admire it infinitely! Envy it! Although I traveled to some places that the author passed more than 20 years ago, it was not enough. A relaxing journey, with no weight, no altitude sickness, no sudden danger, and no in-depth life experience. The world seems to be just a few pictures of buildings and scenery with geographical representation... Perhaps, this dream will one day come true. Well, come to think of it, that day should be there.
This realistic hiking record allows you to understand why people go to Tibet and understand that people rely on their own perseverance to survive and achieve their goals in a cruel environment with nature. The content is substantial and worth a read.
I like this book very much. The author's writing style is delicate and immersive. I feel like I have taken a trip with the author. I support it [like][like][like]
Kudos to you for your courage and perseverance. I envy your journey and hope to have the opportunity to drive to Tibet one day (protect yourself when you go out)

This book truly records the author's experience of walking to Lhasa. I admire his courage and perseverance. The words in the book are witty and concise, making me feel like I can feel the hardships and beauty along the way. The author did not deliberately exaggerate the difficulties, but shared more about the customs and inner growth along the way. This is not only a book about travel, but also a challenge and exploration of oneself, which is worth reading.
This book reminds me of a foreign book, and a long journey cleanses the soul. No matter what the author's reasons and mentality were when he took the first step, he finally reached his destination after going through hardships. The courage is commendable and the consistent spirit is rare to see. I believe that after this unforgettable trip, the author must have undergone earth-shaking changes, both physically and mentally, and it will also affect his life.
I read this book in one sitting over the weekend and admire the author's courage to challenge himself! I also appreciate the author's many thoughts on life!
The writing is authentic and believable. [Praise]
Yes, follow the author on a hiking trip to Lhasa
The story is okay, but not compelling.
The three perspectives are different, but we can also understand
Okay, I've been there too, I just drove.
It took the two of us more than ninety days to walk from Yinchuan to Lhasa. I admire your courage and thank you, the author.
Reading this book feels like going on an arduous hike.
Find out what it felt like to ride a bicycle alone into Tibet back then
Could you please let me see the photos of your trip? After reading the text, I would like to see the photos of you along the way.
Learned about the scenery and humanities of Qinghai and Tibet.
Great book! I really want to travel across the country, but I have never been able to do so. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks to the author for turning this special experience into words for people like me, who are sealed in the concrete grid by reality, to slowly savor it. The author's unique insights, abundant emotions, and humorous language turn the hard work along the way into wonderful scenes, as if I had also taken a trip to the sacred Lhasa.
It's a book worth reading. I felt like I was in it. I finished it in one sitting at 2:42 in the morning.
Very good, a solo trip
Deeply moved, defeat yourself
Very cool! Read it in two days!
The journey of being a human being is hard.
Ok ok ok
