The best soldier of the beautiful president

Chapter 325 Are You Traveling?
There are also many villages and many Indian tribes beside the Andes Mountains.

On a certain day following the follow-up, it was already completely within the range of the Andes.

On this day, in a certain concentration, Yuanpan once again popularized the knowledge of the Andes to Ye Tianfeng——

The average east-west width of the Andes is 241 kilometers, and the widest point is between Arica (Arica) and Santa Cruz (Santa Cruz), about 800 kilometers.The average altitude of the entire mountain range is 3 meters, and there are many peaks covered with snow all the year round, with an altitude of more than 660 meters.It is about 6000 to 7000 kilometers long, three and a half times as long as the Himalayas.Composed of granite formed in the Cretaceous era, it was uplifted when the Pacific plate squeezed the South American plate, and it belongs to the marine lithosphere.

Scholars believe that in the past 2800 million years, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes caused by crustal movement have raised the height of the Andes by 1 meters.It belongs to the Cordillera Mountains (with a total length of 500 kilometers and is the longest mountain system in the world), from the southernmost tip of Chile, Cape Horn, through Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador and Colombia.In Venezuela, the Andes are divided into three distinct mountain ranges, one of which stretches all the way to the Pacific coast.

Scholars often divide the Andes Mountains into three sections: north, central and south: the northern section of the Andes Mountains, located in Colombia, extends north to east, and finally connects with the island arc of the Caribbean island.The middle section of the Andes, from Peru to Chile, where the mountains turn from northwest to northeast.The Andes Mountains here are the widest and have the most volcanic activity relics. It is known that there are more than 900 volcanoes with a height ranging from 5000 to 7000 meters in the southern Andes Mountains, from Chile to the Patagonian coast. One section has quite a few active volcanoes.The highest peak in the Andes is Aconcagua in Argentina, which is 6959 meters above sea level and is the highest extinct volcano in the world.In addition, the world's highest active volcano is also in the Andes Mountains, the name is Yuye Yaco Volcano, with an altitude of 6723 meters.

……

In a certain village, someone asked Ye Tianfeng and the three of them: "Are you traveling alone?"

Ye Tianfeng replied to him and said, "Yes!"

"Want a guide?" said the man again.

Ye Tianfeng smiled.He knows that every tourist attraction in the world has some locals who love to swindle money, and black restaurants and black motorcycle workers are the main support for the local economy!Those in the black hotel said that the local gangsters and the police are their relatives and friends; the black motorcycle union drove you to the ground and cried for your father and mother.So if you can stay at home well, don't go out to travel and die.There is a saying that if you don't die, you won't die!
However, then again, the local people in many places are genuinely simple and do not deceive strangers. They are very hospitable and will not ask you for a penny even if they lead the way.

Whether it is good or bad depends on the spiritual civilization and upbringing of a place.

"Where are you going?" Ye Tianfeng asked the man back.

In fact, Ye Tianfeng knows in his heart that the traffic is not smooth, the geographical environment is weak, the policy is not very supportive, and due to factors such as protecting nature, the tourism industry in the Andes has always been very underdeveloped, but there are also many tourists themselves. It is not uncommon for people to come here especially for their fame, and it is not uncommon for them to invite local field guides.

Ye Tianfeng actually has no spare time to travel here, and where he is talking about, this is an extremely broad question, because the Andes Mountains also span several countries like the Amazon jungle, and it will change if you want to go far. Cheng has gone abroad, can these little mountain people afford to be hurt?

And if it's close, take you around like Hermore's, and then...you get the idea!

"Boss, our business..."

Ye Tianfeng was intentionally joking with the villager in the Andes who looked a bit like a trickster, but Ming Zai suddenly reminded him.

Ye Tianfeng turned his head, indeed, the target army in front had long since disappeared.However, even if he was delayed for two or three days, he knew that he would be able to keep up with such a large force.

But now, Ye Tianfeng didn't want to talk too much with this person anymore.

"Uh--wait, wait, it's cheaper for you!
But for a moment, this troublemaker was stunned: because Ye Tianfeng and the three of them disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"My God! Did I see a mandrill? Did I meet a mandrill today?"

The man then talked to the people in the village all day.

But at this time, Ye Tianfeng and the three of them had already left.

Now, Ye Tianfeng is truly in the range of the Andes Mountains, even though it is only the range at the foot of the mountain.

But now he doesn't need to pay attention to the Andes Mountains, Yuanpan will automatically give him knowledge about the Andes Mountains.

First of all, the traffic problem in the Andes is immediately in front of all travelers.

Yuanpan immediately gave Ye Tianfeng the current content of popular science——

The Andes Mountains are an insurmountable obstacle to traffic in the Andes, seriously affecting the economic and cultural development of the region.Production centers are generally located far from seaports, and the mountainous terrain makes building and maintaining railways and roads difficult and expensive.The widespread network of pack roads continues to function between small towns and between villages and towns, with horses, donkeys and mules widely used, as well as cattle in Colombia and llamas in Peru and Bolivia .

Most of the railways were built for the transportation of mineral products, and few other railway systems in the country were developed.There are two international railways between Chile and Argentina: one connecting Valparaiso and Buenos Aires, and one connecting Antofagasta and Salta.La Paz in Bolivia and Buenos Aires, Antofagasta, Arica in Chile, and through Lake Titicaca and Arequipa and Matarani in Peru ) are connected by rail.Peru has two important domestic railways: one from Puno to Cusco, the other from Lima to Cerro de Pasco and Huancavelica; the second It is the highest railway in the world, with a height of about 4 meters (816 feet) when passing through the Ticlio pass.Ecuador's main railway runs from Quito to Guayaquil.Colombia's main railway connects Bogota with the Caribbean coast.

Because it is too expensive to build railways and run trains in far-flung valleys and valleys, roads are more suitable for rural Andean areas.Since World War II, the countries along the Andean Cordillera have expanded their road network in and through the mountains, although only a small portion of the roads have been paved.The Pan-American Highway winds its way through the mountains of Colombia and Ecuador, connecting major cities; the highways in Peru, Bolivia, Argentina, and Chile also belong to the Pan-American Highway system.
