2009 new year's day dish donkey visit Nepal-8, Patan — the last of the vanishing point, report back to remember

1/5

8 p.m. later some House bakery tamel all fold.

Today's breakfast ate a bought discount bread last night. I wonder if it is not too little butter, this bread to stomach after forming a hard, I suffer a whole day of stomachache.

Toward this journey to destroy the last point: patan, marching!

Although the taxi fare is as long as 200r, considering that the world is experiencing serious economic crisis, adhering to the backpackers to save to this tradition, walk to the city park bus – you can save money and be able to identify oneself with the locals (huddled?), but also more environmentally friendly.

Finally have the chance to walk out of the old into the new city, the roads clean, orderly traffic, pedestrian well-dressed elegant, very rich people in the capital of temperament, not to worry about the harassment.

Raiders says 28 walkway patan, walk to the station, a look laugh — surprise — dozens of bus stop is across seven vertical digital all eight, the front is winding, man, understand is some way.

Anyway, a foreigner, you simply stop moving mouth constantly nagging "patan, patan," someone will soon come to you automatically get the right car.

Two cities by a narrow bagmati river separates the Strait in the North and South.

From the drive to finish in only 30 minutes less, too near. Patan size bigger than bhaktapur, in contrast to the city of patan is the town of bhaktapur. In addition there are many outside of durbar square temples spread to all corners of the old city, which is similar with some of Chiang Mai. One of the first golden temple (only it to sell 50r ticket), the door is only obvious sexuality of both male and female lion is well worth a look. But after all ever after fine carving bhaktapur has produced other aesthetic fatigue, making raids of temples round is enough. A recommendation is located on the East side of durbar square, also from the old Royal Palace building alterations of patan museu-lp called it "on the subcontinent's best Museum". But the ticket tells 250r I hesitated for a moment. Finally made up his mind into the gate, but was surprised to find it ' s only for chinese 50r and needless check passport!. White hesitated for half a day. And Museum exhibits beautiful, very worthy 50r.

In fact, most attracts me patan is a Tibetan refugee camp.

From complimentary tickets for the can see it on the map is located in the southern suburbs of the city of the West, before going to go on foot about 20 minutes. Imagine camp is a large tent camp, walk will only see a squatter settlements. Of course the affair is over nearly half a century, it is not possible to today they still living in tents.

Stupas of handicraft centre is diagonally opposite, a weaving Tibetan carpet factories, income used to the welfare of the local Tibetans.

You can directly go to the workshop went to visit the Tibetan carpet manufacturing process. Woven carpet workers are over the age of 40, genuine and middle-aged women are entirely hand-weaving, weaving only up to a fixed role only, very amazing. Another doomed to large industrial production of the gradual declining trend, slowly moving towards extinction of traditional handicrafts.

I was pushing to laugh, they said "build it Le".

Their smiles and table. I'm a little nervous, because he was recognized as a Chinese, because it is said that these go away in the diaspora country, Chinese people like angry, young friends in the eyes of Japan as hateful Devils.

The first floor is workshop, second floor, is a Tibetan Carpet showroom.

I'm hanging around carrying pictures of Tibetan traditional culture than Tibetan carpet of interest. In a corner a publicity overseas Tibetan national independence movement's baolan, English information, the Dalai Lama and a group photo of Western man, as well as the Beijing Olympics of caricature.

It is difficult to describe how I feel, can only say that their position and our stand was so different.

Passport is a very special departure chapter: an irregular oval, doubt is already made of this shape or a stamp is not careful flattened.
