Here, our journey heads northwards
我们深入中国北地
into one of China's wildest places
原始地区的旅程开始了
Leaving Kashgar and the Silk Road behind
离开了喀什和丝绸之路
we travel into the Tianshan
我们一路来到天山
or heavenly mountains.
或称天国之山
This great mountain range defines the border
这座伟岸的山脉坐落于
between China's most northwestern province
中国最西北省区
and neighboring Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan
与塔吉克斯坦和吉尔吉斯斯坦的边境交汇处
Its majestic peaks are nearly as high as the Himalayas
他的宏伟顶峰几乎逼近喜马拉雅山巅峰
Forming a natural great wall
形成了一座天然长城
For much of the year it's bound up in ice
尽管常年冰雪覆盖
But the glacial melt water allows evergreen forests to grow
但她的冰川融水却为常绿森林的成长提供了丰足的水源
a far cry from the desert south of here
与南部沙漠遥相呼应
These mountains are the gateway
这些山脉成为了
to some of China's most surprising people and places
深入中国最神奇居民和他们家园的关口
