"are in the heart of the eternal melody, leisurely remember to hum with the mouth or have a different feeling, came to Boqiangji, every day can see different forms of clouds, in addition to the song floating through the clouds, there are other posture of the clouds let people have the impulse to write clouds again, specifically to write the clouds of Boqiangji.

The clouds of Bolqangji

  Historical records show that from the topography and landform, Bolqangji town is a hilly and basin landform, with a high north and low south elevation of 1,526 meters, and the lowest place is Balikun Lake. Climatically, Bolqangji has a temperate continental arid climate, with cool summers and severe winters. The average temperature for many years is 2.7℃, the average temperature in January is -16.9℃ and the extreme minimum temperature is -43.4℃; the average temperature in July is 18.9℃ and the extreme maximum temperature is 35.0℃. The average minimum monthly temperature is -30.2℃, and the average maximum monthly temperature is 28.1℃. The annual average of growing period is 120 days, and the annual average of frost-free period is 116 days. The annual average sunshine hours is 3030.5 hours, and the duration of above 0℃ is 199.3 days. The average annual precipitation is 230.5 mm, and the average annual number of precipitation days is 113, with a maximum of 113 days and a minimum of 99 days. The extreme annual maximum rainfall is 342.5 mm, and the extreme annual minimum rainfall is 139.2 mm. It is probably these topographical and climatic characteristics that determine the variety of morphological features of clouds in Bolqangji.

  When you get up in the morning, facing the rising sun, you can see clouds like ribbons, which start to float to the distance from both sides of the sun and extend to the top of Bolqangji Mountain, the ribbons and the sun are like a big red hydrangea, except that the ribbons on both sides are made of clouds, and the color is not all red, the part close to the sun is orange-red, slowly expanding to the distance, the color of the ribbons becomes lighter and lighter, and when they float to the top of Bolqangji Mountain, they become White, gray-white, with the sun rising rapidly, the color is also changing, the previous orange-red more and more faint, and finally also became white, the sun went, but the ribbon is left in the sky, as if the cloud ribbon is to the sun to send off, and like a big morning to see the sunrise.

  The noon sun is still very strong, although the wind is still blowing, the blue sky is steadily stationed in a large number of cloud troops, or a small part of the scattered, or a large part of the concentration; or assembly training, or ready to go; or emergency march, or two armies against each other. Eat a meal, the cloud troops have all disappeared, into a group of sheep in the leisurely grazing, there are a few horses in the distance, the owner of the felt house on the cooking smoke curling, as if you can smell the milk tea fragrance. After a closer look at the original picture found that it is not sheep, not to mention the felt house, there is no smoke and milk tea fragrance, that is the farmers picked cotton, are piled into mountains, farmers gleefully dancing ......

  After noon, the wind blowing more vigorously, through the window can hear the sound of whistling wind, the wind drifted a few pieces of rain made of clouds, closer and closer, more and more gloomy, white clouds into a sea of ink clouds, it is too late, the sea of clouds really have rain, marching down like a rush, only a short time, the ground all wet, the rain is not long, the sea of clouds tumbled away, the sky brightened up again, the sun also from the clouds drilled out, as if nothing had happened.

  A gust of wind blew the clouds away, no, the wind has been blowing, it should be the clouds themselves away, leaving only a little shadow of the clouds, this may be no more clouds, the sun is almost set. But wait until the sun sets in the west, the clouds do not know from somewhere again, not the ribbon, not cotton, like flower petals, colored, neither blocking the sun, nor away from the sun, and the sun reflected each other, haze, sunset, clouds fade, clouds and like to send off the sunset.

  Some people say that Boqiangji has more underground coal, more mineral resources, and more miners, and this cloud is sent from heaven to visit and condole with these hard-working people, and it is right, this cloud shows the hard work and happy harvest of the hard-working people on this land in different postures.

  "The clouds of the hometown float by the sky ......"

  The clouds of Bolqangji are the clouds of the hometown!
