The photo is taken by Qianqian, a special photographer for Zhurou Network.

The off-road vehicle is climbing the Canghou Mountain in the Qiahn area of Yuquzhou, Qinghai Province, over the rugged dirt road.

The drivers are very supportive, although the journey is arduous, but deeply into this Qinghai secret realm, everyone is amazed by the magnificent scenery of the plateau and the shock it brings to people's hearts.

A big hairpin turn is about to get closer to 10 kilometers and then turn back. You can already see the temple hanging on the cliff in the distance with a big hairpin turn.

Everyone stopped to rest and take pictures.

Turn left to Nugu Temple, go straight to Zunuo Temple.

The distant mountain peak - Zunuo Temple cliff temple.

The sun shines on the vast green earth, isn't it like a Chinese painting?

Is this road dangerous enough?

The newbie shouldn't challenge it.

Finally arrived at Zunuo Temple, the picture is beside the temple cliff.

At this moment, everyone jumped up and shouted happily.

Look at these dark clouds, it seems like it's going to rain.

Like several big rocks.

In the Qinghai-Tibetan border area, the cliff temple Zunuo Temple is rarely found on the internet, and few people can come here.

A triangular rock bounced out of the water, isn't it wonderful?

Yellow and green color scheme, quite beautiful.

A river stretches to the end of sight.

Moving to Danya Temple, the road still has a terrible dirt road, each small pit is a pool of water.

The off-road vehicle team rushed quickly, in order to arrive at Danya Temple before dark, to find the only place to stay along the way.

Just now the dark clouds, the plateau's weather suddenly changed, bringing the vehicle to a relatively safe place to park.

Driving on the plateau in rainy weather is very dangerous, observe the terrain carefully, consider the risk of mudslides and landslides caused by heavy rain and the rapid rise of the river, remember safety first!

The rain stopped, the vehicle team continued to move forward in this silent valley that is difficult to turn and difficult to run, as if only a few vehicles like ours exist on Earth.

Finally arrived at Danya Temple Hot Spring Resort, the menu is really hard to understand.

Let's eat later, and settle into the room, let's soak in the famous Danya Canyon hot spring in this deep plateau.
