I could take a precious photo that is a beautiful rainbow with Qinghai-Tibet railway.

Qinghai-Tibet railway train conductor said that it's a rare case "you can see the rainbow from Qinghai-Tibet railway."

He said that the rainbow reminded us chinese legendary creature dragon.

The rainbow reminds them the rain and harvest.

How lucky I am. I can eat dinner in the Qinhai Tibet railwaytrain restaurant despite of crowdness.

You can order two types of menue Western and
Chinese style.

I ordered Chinese style dinner.

That is rice , hot spicy bean curd , chopped burdock root
cooked in soy and sesame oil and peach.

Qinhai Tibet railway train is getting closer to the Lake Cuona.

You ca see yaks eating grasses and birds resting on the Lake Cuona.

The Lake Cuona is a fresh-water lake and sacred place for Tibetan.

I feel freedom and love nature... and God.

The colors of the sky and landscapes ,when I have these clear skies or occasional cloud with the breaks on the horizen , so long as the sun peeps through , is just a kind of magic of God.

The next stop is Amdo station on Qinhai Tibet railway.

But we can't get off at Amdo station.

Amdo is the northern part of the three provinces of Tibet.

The time is at P.M 4:30.

The altitude 4702m.

I feel I can reach out for the sky.

And I feel alive.

There is a stone monument of the top of the world along Qinhai-
Tibet railway.

I miss the shooting chance because the train does't move slow down.

The weakness of the digital camera is a moment shooting.

Tuotuo River (沱沱河) is a headstream of the Chang Jiang(長江) river.

There are towns along the Tuotuo River (沱沱河) at the altitude of 4539m.

I think the Tuotuo River (沱沱河) and the mountain side of the rivers in Tibet are lack of water due to the global warming.

We feel getting closer to Tibet because colorful Prayer flags are found in the mountain.

Tibetans promote peace, compassion, strength, wisdom and blessings to hang colorful Prayer flags.

The colorful Prayer flags are symbol of Tibetans.

Everybody enjoys his or her lunch time in this Qinhai Tibet railway.

I tried to go to the restaurant car again.

The result is ,however,the restaurant car was crowded with so much passengers.

It seems that the travel agency has reserved already.

I bought a lunch set from train seller.

green pepper with meat,rice,boiled egg and pickles
