The Gobi Desert in Mongolia 🇲🇳is a panorama of emptiness. Nothingness is a key feature of Mongolia. The country consists mainly of sky doming expansively over the arid earth. It’s what draws me to the Gobi region: the uninterrupted grandeur of space. In a world compressed by connectivity, I want to regain my sense of scale in the 6th largest desert in the world. The Gobi is not a coherent landscape. It changes often, abruptly, like the flipping pages in a book, the light changes every ten minutes and dust spins lazily in and out of existence. I climbed to the tallest dune in the area. The climb to the top of the massive dunes was not easy with a 45 degrees incline. Once I reached the ridge of the dunes, a great vista appeared before me. The views were amazing, although the wind was blowing hard picking up sand with force. I felt like I was being sandblasted. I had to cover my face tight to prevent fine sand from being blown into my eyes, ears and mouth. I walked along the crest of the massive dunes for some distance. The walking was not easy at all and the sand would slide from under my feet as I walked. The sliding sand would make a singing-like sound, hence the name "singing sand dunes". I had a kilo of fine sand in each shoe and inside my socks at the end of the day. But the views and the whole experience were worth all the long driving to get here. The Gobi Desert is truly an amazing spot and it is a must visit in Mongolia! 我向往可以到沙漠走一趟,所以走访了蒙古 ,来到了全球第六大沙漠,戈壁沙漠。我原本只是想亲眼目睹沙漠的的神秘与辽阔,还有骑上骆驼🐫在沙漠漫行。行走在荒凉的沙漠的时候,才发现这是一场意志力和体力的拉锯战,因为要在细滑的沙丘上一步一步往上爬,其实是很费劲的。我一度想在半途放弃,但心想千里迢迢来到了这里,还是坚持慢慢一步一步走,告诉自已一定要爬上去站在那最顶点。 当终于站在沙丘峰顶上眺望远方,浓郁而炽烈的金黄沙漠的颜色真让人心旷神怡,好像承载着太阳的光芒,在空旷寂寥的沙漠中闪耀,一切变得神秘动人,而且觉得在沙漠的天空和白云都很靠近大地,只要伸出手,仿佛就能触摸到它们。这是我第一次如此的亲近大地,也能感受到世界上有太多美丽的奇异国度,在大自然下,人是微小的尘埃。我领悟到一些绝境必须得克服有些肢体和心灵上的障碍,才能看见眼前的风景,所以沿途中所经历的一切,都是值得的!
