Many people may not know that the "Aotai Line" is actually a forbidden area in Qinling Mountains. As early as 20 18, the local authorities issued a ban prohibiting all units and individuals from entering at will and carrying out illegal crossing activities.
Then the question is, what's the secret on the Olympic-Pacific line, and why is it classified as the "Qinling Forbidden Zone"?
Qinling restricted area
Located in the hinterland of my junior high school, the Qinling Mountains are "just right" above sea level, which can stop the cold wave from going south in winter and damp air from entering the northwest in summer, but it will not completely block the airflow.
This makes the north and south of Qinling Mountains take on a completely different look, with subtropical monsoon climate in the south and temperate monsoon and temperate continental climate in the north.
The height difference of Qinling Mountain is also great, which also leads to the great difference of local vertical climate, often showing the scene that flowers are full of people in April and peach blossoms in the mountain temple begin to bloom.
The complex and changeable climate also makes the Qinling Mountains have a wide variety of animals and plants. There are many rare wild animals and plants living here, such as giant panda, pronghorn, crested ibis and golden monkey. Because of its rich ecological environment, Qinling Mountain is also called "the genetic treasure house of natural animals and plants".
Because of the climate barrier and water source nourishment in Qinling Mountains, there will be eight hundred miles of Qinchuan, and China gave birth to the Zhou Dynasty, Qin Dynasty, Han Dynasty and Tang Dynasty, so Qinling Mountain is also called "Long Mai of Chinese civilization".
Nowadays, Qinling area has become an important tourist area because of its unique geographical landscape and rich wildlife resources. People can visit developed scenic spots, such as Zhongnan Mountain and Huashan Mountain.
However, within the Qinling Mountains, there are also some forbidden areas for human beings, such as the Aotai Line.
Aotai Line is a main line running through the two main peaks of Qinling Mountain, Aoshan Mountain and Taibai Mountain. It runs on the ridge of Qinling Mountain, so it is also called "China Dragon Ridge".
It stands to reason that "China Dragon Ridge" is a very good tourist slogan. Then why is this route listed as a "forbidden zone" instead of being developed into a tourist area? What is the reason?
Why is it listed as a restricted area?
As a matter of fact, the Long Mai-Thailand Line is listed as a restricted area, not because crossing here will destroy the wealth of, but because it is too dangerous.
First of all, we want to say that since the Aotai Line is about 3000 meters above sea level, and in the troposphere, the temperature will drop by about 6 degrees Celsius every time the altitude rises by 1000 meters, so although there are many villages under the Aotai Line, it may be another world on the mountain, and it is probably snowing here.
In addition, although the Qinling Mountains can block the cold wave or humid airflow, many mountain tops have become "vents", and strong winds can even tear up clothes and tents. It is not only difficult for human beings to walk here, but also leads to rapid loss of body temperature. Without adequate equipment and timely evacuation, they may die of hypothermia.
Secondly, the climate in mountainous areas is unpredictable, sometimes it is sunny for one second, and there may be strong winds, heavy rain and heavy snow in the next, which will also lead to rapid loss of body temperature.
More importantly, after the rain, the Olympic-Taiyuan line will become slippery, and it may slip and fall off a cliff, or it may hurt your leg. If you are not rescued in time after the injury, you may die. After it snows, snow may cover some pits. If you walk here carelessly, you may fall down.
In addition, there are many wild animals living in Qinling area. If you accidentally meet them, you may also face the risk of being attacked by wild animals.
According to statistics, from 20 12 to 20 17, 46 people were lost, disappeared or even died, which shows that the Austrian-Pacific Line is a veritable "death line".
In addition, the Aotai Line is located in the core protection area of Taibai Mountain National Nature Reserve in Shaanxi Province, China. There are many rare animals living here, such as the national first-class protected animal takin, but due to human activities, the number of takin activities on the Australian-Thai line has decreased significantly.
The Austrian-Pacific Line is also a natural channel for the migration of giant pandas, and a large number of human activities will also hinder the migration of giant pandas.
The Aotai Line is also an important local water conservation area. In order to protect the ecological environment and water sources here, and also to protect the safety of donkey friends, as early as 20 18, the local authorities issued a ban prohibiting individuals and units from crossing the Aotai line. The responsibility for casualties caused by illegal crossing activities shall be borne by the organizer or individual.
Why can't you help the restricted area?
Although the Qinling Aotai Line is listed as a restricted area, there are still donkey friends crossing privately, missing or dying. Then the question is, why can't the restricted area help?
This is actually because the Austrian-Pacific line is not in the closed area. There are still many farmers living under the Aotai line, and local people occasionally go into the mountains to cut wood or look for herbs.
On the other hand, the Aotai Line is located in the original area of my junior high school, with convenient transportation. There are many routes for people to board the Olympic-Pacific line, and it is difficult to discourage them.
However, once they are found to have crossed the Aotai Line, they will be investigated and dealt with by the police, and the missing rescued people will be recovered from the search and rescue expenses of the social search and rescue team.
By the way, the purpose of our country's listing the Olympic-Pacific Line as a restricted area is not to oppose people's exploration, but that there are too many deaths on this line, so it is listed as a restricted area to protect everyone, so some travelers should not know that it is a restricted area, but they must cross it privately.
