内容提要
有一种传说。大唐贞观年间，文成公主远嫁土蕃英雄松赞干布。当公主回首东望时，眼中落下一滴思念故土的泪珠。这泪珠化作了绿度母，再化作一条长长的江河，把青藏高原和东南河山连在一起。有人说，这是公主长长的思念。也有人说，其实这是松赞干布献给同样是英雄的大唐天子长长的哈达。不管怎么说吧，这长长的江河就是怒江。
有一种猜测。战国末期的楚国大诗人屈原在他的不朽诗篇《天问》中有这样的诗句：“三危安在？黑水玄址？”两千多年来，学者们皓首穷经后终于证明：三危指的是碧罗雪山，黑水指的就是怒江。
有一个狂想。当代地理、地图学者扶永发所著《神洲的发现》一书认为：早已迷失本来面目的古典名著《山海经》记录的种种奇迹，也通通指向怒江。
有一个重要人物。一百多年前，法国探险家亨利•奥尔良亲王两度穿越怒江大峡谷，他用优雅细腻的文笔，把与怒江大峡谷相关的信息传递到了遥远的西方，随之而来的是一批又一批的西方传教士，他们带来了《圣经》和神的祝福。于是，这里除了我闻如是的幢幢经幡、声声梵呗之外，又成了一片圣歌弥漫的心灵净土。
有一段不能遗忘的历史。一九四二年，中国军队组成了号称“十万青年十万铁血”的中国远征军越过怒江出缅对日作战。作战失利后，远征军的一部份退入印度，一部份退回怒江东岸并组成了坚强的防线，使一路疯狂进攻的日军不能越雷池一步，从而保证了大后方的安全。一九四四年，几十万大军强渡怒江，向盘踞在怒江以西和缅甸境内的日军发起了胜利的进军并彻底洗刷了往日的耻辱。这是一条英雄的河流。
有一串长长的名单。荷兰电影大师伊文思的电影《一条迷失的河》，日本NHK制作的纪录片《风之桥》，田壮壮的电影《德拉姆》和郝跃俊的电视《最后的马帮》，讲述的都是怒江的故事，无论在国内还是国外，他们获奖无数。
有一个基本的事实。怒江巨大的自然资源和独有的人文资源已经被确认。在这高山与长河之间，傈僳人响遏行云的多声部无伴奏合唱，普米人轻盈的搓搓舞，独龙人面部那轻飏的蝴蝶，都早已蜚声海外，成了人类文明的证明。
有一种错误的想法。凡是物质上贫困的人群，他们的内心世界必定是一片苍凉的荒野。怒江的一切会告诉您：那不是事实。无论是怀抱四弦琴的傈僳少年，还是那翩然起舞的怒家少女，他们都会说，他们的欢乐并非只是源于物质的原因。
怒江不是世界第一。但她绝世而独立的沉醉自有风韵。
朋友，您想来与怒江人分享这风情万种的魅力吗？
如果您打点行装，跟随传说中的马帮走来，怒江和珠穆朗玛第三女神将敞开胸怀为您高举酒杯，那时，大怒江所有的鲜花也将为您开放。
A legend goes that during the Zhen Guan Reign of the Great Tang Dynasty, Princess Wencheng was about to marry the Tibetan hero Songtsan Gambo, when the Princess turned back her head to look into the east, a drop of tears of homesickness rolled out of her eyes. The drop of tears was transformed into emerald Guanyin; it then was changed into a long river that links the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and the landscape in the southeast. Someone says that it is the Princess’ profound passion for homeland, whereas some other person maintains it is the long Hatha that Songtsan Gambo has contributed to the equally heroic Tang emperor. No matter what, the long river is Nu River.
There is a guess. In his immortal poem "Inquiry of the Heaven", Qu Yuan, a great poet of the Chu state in late Warring States period, wrote such a stanza in this poem: "Where is the Sanwei Mount? And where is the mysterious site of Black water? "Over two thousand years, after exhausting study and research for generations, scholars have finally proved that: Sanwei refers to Biluo Snow Mountain, and Black water refers to the Nu River.
There is a fantasy. In his book entitled "Discovery of the Holy Continent", Fu Yongfa, a contemporary geographic and cartographic scholar, concluded that: All sorts of miracles recorded in the Classics of the Legends whose true faces have been long lost, also point to the Nu River.
There is an important figure. More than one hundred years ago, A French explorer Prince Henri Orleans twice crossed the Nu River Grand Valley, with his elegant and delicate style of writing, he conveyed the information about the Nu River Grand Valley to the distant West, then group after group of Western missionaries came in, they brought the Bible and God's blessing with them. Therefore, in addition to the chanting of Buddhist prayers, here became a heavenly pure land filled with holy chanting of the Christian choir.
There is a period of history that cannot be forgotten. In 1942, the Chinese expeditionary force known as "ten thousand young men, ten thousand armaments" crossed the Nu River and the Burmese border to fight the war against Japanese invaders. After losing the battle, part of the expeditionary force retreated into India, Others returned to the east bank of Nu River and formed a strong line of defense, and they kept the crazily attacking Japanese army out of the line of defense, so as to ensure the safety of the greater rear area. In 1944, hundreds of thousands of troops forced to cross the Nu River, they launched a victorious offensive against the Japanese army entrenched in the area west of the Nu River and within the Myanmar territory and thoroughly washed away the shame of the past. This is a heroic river.
There is a long list. The film "A Lost River" made by Film Master Evans of the Netherlands, a Japan's NHK documentary "Wind's Bridge", Tian Zhuangzhuang's film "Dram" and Hao Yuejun's TV series "the Last Caravan", they all tell the story of the Nu River, whether within the country or abroad, they have received numerous awards.
There is a basic fact. The huge natural resources and unique cultural resources of the Nu River have been identified. Between the high mountains and the long rivers, the high pitched multi-part unaccompanied chorus of the Lisu people, the lightly touching cuocuo dance of the Pumi people, the butterfly tattoos on the faces of the Dulong people, all these have long been renowned overseas and have become proof of human civilization.
There is a myth. For all the population experiencing material poverty, their inner world must be a desolate wilderness. All about the Nu River will tell you: That is not true. Whether it is the Lisu juvenile embracing the four-string instrument, or the Nu ethnic girl dancing lightly up there, they would rather say that their joy is not only derived from material reasons.
Nu River is not the world's Number One, but her peerless independent indulging has its own charm.
Dear friend, do you want to come to share the charm of this enchanting place with the Nu River people?
If you pack up and come following the caravan described in the legend, the Nu River and the Third Goddess of the Everest will open their arms holding high the golden trophy to welcome you, by that time, all the fresh flowers of the Nu River will be in full bloom to welcome you.
