His mother's father: lovely Nepal

His mother's father: lovely Nepal

Have been circling in the sky for five years in Tibet, a bird's eye view plus is Lhasa distance nearest major city.

I have read a book about Nepal Tourism, legendary Maoist, street of white hat shop, the Yarlung zangbo Hotel Nepal waiter I evoke the mysterious country. Dreams in the Highlands and bow saw neighbors Nepal is a funny thing, similarly to the mountain look spectacular flying Shen Yi. November 7, 2007, in the Consulate in Lhasa Nepal I get a visa, they finally made a dream come true.

First, the night of camphor

Consulate door special hit mix vehicle to camphor, each person $ 4500 off-road vehicle pick-up at 19 points of business tourism, six people out into the night.

Because Tibet Highway speed limit for tourist safety, we had to darker road, icy day pause to torturing clearance, until midnight supper arrive xigaze slow. Winter night, I'm bored: behind compartment wrapped tight all clothing still so cold and vibrations, chilling struggled to awake, that night was destined to accompany, with the bright sky and sleepless nights. All the difficult road, Mount Everest experience as we left it to pass up. We in the wilderness after two border control parking and waiting for the drivers as an excuse to sleep in front of the road. A long way and night, in a cold tingri County a roadside family hotel frozen till, said calls in PEI young Tibetan women conch students from cow dung stoves it found the warm, drink hot water, biscuits with cream dip chewing. Tingri is very simple and small but is dog heaven, there is lazy ignored alien dog, as if the world is ignored.

To move ahead in the dust of the dirt track, tomorrow I'm back into the vacuum cleaner, was watched the mobile landscape.

I know I am becoming more and more in Tibet distance in the sky as far away, perhaps I should have another place to go. Suddenly, the bumpy road car to the right as she went after the violent shaking, tire burst out of as off stiff road wild horses mountain roller to 100 meters, outside the barren Beach, automotive friction out signs of paralysis after one down, everyone scared out of sweat, fortunately, in the road, in the wood of the nearby did not dare to imagine. Repair the Tibetan driver even casual chat admits least two screws on the day! a toss about, good looking car in peer has not kept pace with returns to rescue, wait on the desolate Earth before noon, all the way down to tighten screws and ask the driver. Over tingri dottola Yamaguchi, the way most classic of Plateau scenery rendering out, continuous xuefeng, Chiseled, magnificent, in the wilderness against Wei so spectacular. Start the next plateau, a little greenery slipped out, or the Sun suddenly and snow, cold in the nyalam County, which is located in the Valley, the terrain, the more compact wing one-pass Street, building less features in Tibet.

A bowl of noodles supports continue down, down.

Due to the construction of the road one-way release, dig for speed walking wall daunting, lives on. Because of the altitude in the sudden drop, you can say that this is the world's most dangerous road, formed a hovering escarpment of winding road, difficult construction task here depicts Tibet highway construction of a new chapter. National attention to the construction of port infrastructure, in the narrow mountain roads on the construction of a waterfall, DC, from cars to a natural shower. All tossed over hill and down the sea like dizziness, like eating Ecstasy from heaven, is more and more oxygen to let drivers Biao like speed.

Evening listening to the Valley streams, waterfalls and wonderful sounds into the wood, the narrow mountain roads near the mountain winds a few rows of large goods vehicle, I surprised border so busy.

I do business with car with homes in Qinghai province, he often went to Nepal mastered the local language, accompanied by a bath after the original settlement in low sleep that night special aroma.

Second, the "light": Kathmandu

The following day, first in the mountain town and stroll around the hotel press 1: 862 convertible currency, see neriah $ 10 coin work very plastic, Nice.

First under the customs documents and baggage, and $ 10 friendship bridge under the surface, in the rain just going in, together, in contrast to my first impression was that the other was a mess, facilities, other checkpoints for the 200, currency, often accompanied by the corruption fall behind.

Life and soothing, I went into business in Qinghai, as they celebrate our third person per person price 900, under the old Japan coin bags out of the car with all.

Newcomers to, as if everything is fresh, the person because of his face, with the left wheel left row, Caroline Hill region also unusual aura. Edge below minus clothing, hanging over the side of the swing happy children, Valley rafting, past India produce TATA cards fancy bus even top also crowded with people, show quiet happy others, roadside towns is relatively clean and quiet, every household hangs petals falling out.

In moist rain and fog, overlooking the Valley and are, like the mist like hanging can begin, a unique charm.

Afternoon scattered everywhere and are out of order architecture,. Take out beforehand in the Raiders ctrip download, tame have the driver sent to longyou youth hostel, lobby also hung up one person portrait, a sensitive topic. 400, the simple single currency, although there is no water to drink every 15 s, big bottle of pure water. But I still like a balcony on the floor, there is a pretty common flower, his Chinese flavour "longyou".

Positive than Hanukkah, Themal tourism accumulation point in oil lamps at night Zoo, is worthy of "light" of Kathmandu.

Children beat wooden called mouth ballad: "love me, love me," probably "fortune, zhaxi DELE" blessing in begging money. See fast tourists, an overabundance of unfamiliar faces, exotic people in new and unfamiliar in feel lonely. "Why?" my single here. I said to myself.

December 10, 2007, can't wait to get on the map to the South du bus Plaza, to the junction with five confused me, use my wayward experience under the Sun and the flow of people find a junction to the South, and believe me there is no right or wrong, while generally pay attention to the following junction location and Ming

Display flags. The narrow streets in the 1980s as the domestic market day as a noisy clutter, fruit and vegetable market of trafficking may be the variety of natural products that are very small, but mixed with curry sauce taste sensation, garbage around the cross, was the Palace, the Temple of God and without distinction, but there is a friendly smile and "his MOM is Daddy" Hello, this is real simple countries.

Kathmandu Valley there are several of the world cultural heritage, du bus Plaza (Durbar Square) to the Palace Square.

In the Kathmandu Valley of three ancient city (Kathmandu, Tan, Bard posts) have a du Pakistan square, they are different times rule Nepal's political center. Plus all of the du-Temple and the Royal Palace, Plaza is very full of South Asian architecture, Mellon décor. Square no imaginary atmosphere, there stands the misappropriation, cattle and the Dove came and established a foothold. Here is the ornamental Nepal Temple construction, the best place is located to the left of the entrance to the square du bad girl Temple is well worth going to, Windows, statues and sculptures with many Peacock pattern. Good luck today to catch up with the festive processions, dress uniforms, the flute dance flag, enjoying the holiday fun. Just visit the temple after women, heard the police car horn call, and heavily armed police, hand in hand "at the dog bar". To the Piazza at the politicians on the stage, today saw the goddess down see politicians, anyway here is the paradise of God and blend.

Back to Thai Meier was Western food, 230, coins point a steak, eat no taste no stomach.

Afternoon rest in longyou adapted from the sky, watching the dumbfounded. Night lights the night of the Festival, petal blessings, pigment wills, crowded Themal quiet down. Go online to find a few inconvenient Chinese input and internal code, or information on the Chinese people of Taishan hotel opposite the Chinese services Internet conveniently. It brings together many Chinese people to network, phone, and then I often go here 1 hour Internet access, the network also 20rbs and like the slow pace of life here, I always wanted to go to the bottle of Coke, suavissimus slowly to wait. Every time I go to with handsome boss smile, "his mother's father".

I added all day, from morning to night is xianyunyehe leisurely.

In the balcony I met tanned long hair stuff, he played about many countries in South Asia for nearly a year, by doing the following volunteers, with shlkhar cigarettes with a smile, he is for the Community contribution to the idler, are actually desperadowhy Drifter, each value is rich and varied. There are also evening in the streets singing of zigong people, he had to sing around the rim of the sea, going to India to sing Chinese songs, I appreciate his aloof and brave. But that old had middle-aged Chinese in longyou lived for a while, shadowy, carrying laptop abroad play domestic stock, so this bull cattle. However on the unit on the stage we are closer and more, in the mountain of single-play new inspiration. Here many people because of the convenience of visa to India, I envy the Delhi, due to insufficient preparation combined with bad language for later.

Lazy slow life, enjoy better sleep, only to wake up the morning birds bird.

The temperature is 18 ~ 24 degrees, with deep breathing is like a breath of Spring Board six roof terrace around Sunrise and sunset, watch the snow show desire high corner, plus all Valley landforms, clutter-free planning between looking for positioning of buildings. The roof is placed with the old solar, and black pitcher, separate pumping groundwater use, in the absence of water uniform infrastructure, the street has many traditional stone tap natural water, scrub for a large open air Street.

Slow life, people usually get two, morning meal is not convenient, simple to kill themselves, not in the habit of weird Western, India, Japan, after a few days before they eat rice, then I go to the four seas restaurant morning porridge, I don't like to eat big as steamed dumplings, green pepper beef good strength out of play, and beef noodle soup in the evening.

Large courtyard is the land of the Chinese people gathered, you can also see hunantai, play mahjong, Sichuan to boss is very spicy.

10, up to station on the balcony and look through there is a wake-up distance joy of every day, to travel through the quiet calm of heaven and Earth.

Today is going to look for-longyou second place to live, to like five fingers like a fork in the road, I was confused Halo often have unexpected, front's rocking a looks like a Chinese woman, I think you should also go to the second, longyou quietly trailing, I feel direction horizons. Return to ask for directions, his mother is father's passion, nor know straight away without Chinese, muddle longyou second passion pointed at the Center. In addition all lane lose yourself, Belle lagged, longyou II did not find, Hogan:. Insights into: "color is empty" Buddha's words. On the go, Royan Debnath Temple (Swayambhunath) monkey Temple.

Old Beijing Longxugou like bridge, everything is dirty, through civilian areas later saw the eyes of the Hill, is a piece of the Buddhist world seems familiar scene unfolded in Tibet, climbed the ladder surrounding many monkeys stone naughty jump welcome your presence, there are many on both sides of the Hindu-style stone carving techniques and delicate.

On top is very cheap to buy tickets at a glance, and "big eyes", she is one of the flags of Nepal tourist, this is how I beheld the eye in the sky, her kindly pleased, intuitively, there will be thousands of flange. I pace gazing, mobile or so kind eye in the sky and I wish, in the Pearl Temple zedang have site-Pearl Thangka of the Buddha's eye was affectionately magic in different directions are watching you.

Here is an important Buddhist pilgrimage, Sakyamuni had visited this place.

Monkey Temple, fully embodies the Hindu and Buddhist in Nepal for perfect integration. In this aerial view plus are all available city, the surrounding hills, the valleys of the lt-intensive in three or four story building with elevator, fresh. Monkey happy in the Tower room, playing a forest, crowds of lazy dog lying around big sleeping Buddha, towering pagoda in the sun shone, charming large eyes, and announce a Buddha's xiangguang, Purdue sentient beings.

Down the Hill, could not find the bus station and no travel green, had to fight 150rbs returns.

Afternoon free

Chat to burn the blisters on tea, flowers and quiet patio looking Chinese Xiankan, see who's who, on their own out of play. Or go to Internet cafes see quotes. Or go to the streets with free change, every time I go to shuttle alley has discovered, the Hindu temple is said to be the capital over a thousand. Traditional handicraft workshop even more attractive, I like the tambourine in Lhasa "low House" music played tambourine, unfortunately too much inconvenience.

12, online early to go to the registration, see comparison of stable prices.

Go to the station, go the new Palace, high especially solemn courtyard Sensen, guard-ammunition, swing-out only in the walls, modern monarchy of countries has many folk stories, old King full door shot, brother, and he reigned, funny thing, really fight against our own men? people for selfish new King impression is not good, looking forward to renewing the sooner or later. Afternoon saw a somewhat traditional Tibetan style usually COP. boss smiled and said: "this is the Chinese Yin-Yang figure", with a computer you come to cut to the 400rbs wear very comfortable.

13, the afternoon to see paspa bottom body, advertise smell see disgusting burnt something, diffuse air, a guerrilla guide warmly recommended when the wizard, I asked to speak Chinese you dumb.

By the River on the big wood, covered with straw, flame licked the dying person go to heaven, and finally to burn all the sweep of river water turbidity. The stand, there are Christians red sauce for upper body lying on the ground falls asleep. This is Hinduism for dead calm. Cross the bridge into the River opposite, many Western tourists are on the body one shot, I do not like this. Paspa bottom many carved in stone, architectural style with Western tastes, there are many Hindu in spiritual practice, squalid. Face very exaggerated smeared color, hair shall, to the visitors group photo for money, happy life, and on tourism posters as cover.

On the left, you can watch just sat across from the Hindu temple is open only to believers, I tried to go into the temple, or call out, incredible.

On the side of the temple roof there are carved with many porn action of worship of wood, brick, equally burdensome exquisite ancient civilization is hewn. Returns and foreigners play combination 100, in the alley boys stopped the vehicle for meet drivers 10rbs, the typical anarchy, a bit of a mind, ridiculous.

In the afternoon and go du bus Plaza, taste the Curry fried, ancient stone staircase in the square Tower of the Sun, brilliant strange architecture, feel to read and understand the magical religious language, mixed crowd at idle and tourists, watch the passers-by trance to the Sun the billowing turn and motorcycle whistle call back.

And to go out, because nanxiaoxiang lack Bureau, downy dust, a typical poor, no messy "creating healthy cities" consciousness, if only to engage China Bureau to manage under a certain order, China's development is an example.

Dinner, because from time to time, here's a power outage, Xinjiang oil glasses going to India to "learn from their experience, he privately recuperating from a vegetarian nutrition and scanty, bubble tea rice.

I invited him to India opened next to the restaurant for dinner, candlelight, eternal smell, taste and fame Curry, stands next to white, I do not dare to drink. Listen to the petroleum glasses on all Office India visa, India eyes filled with suspicion and difficult road of interesting there. I believe that Buddhism would bless him safely in India. But on the point with candles in longyou stairs seem to return to the childhood of a peaceful night, candle making people feel the quiet night, could not help but hummed: "quiet nights ...".

The next day, in accordance with the plan to visit, because despatin Chinese translation and local accent, I go to the felt crowded buses, lad a I onto the car to Bo Harald direction, I do not feel the streets and maps, pointing at maps to despatin, NIVA is warm and I dropped the car pointed to the South, I couldn't understand what to say, you can't read the text, but can comprehend their smile.

Had to go by taxi, shuttle in lost alley.

"Pamela Tan" means "city of the arts, is the famous black God (Krishna) Temple, the Quartet-temple roof is typical of Nepal temple architecture style, in Tanzania, there are, the city is full of stone pillars, statues, fountain, temples and statues of gods Tower, King sits at a high pole, Cobra live from the back cover, King's head and a stone's the bird standing on the above, it is said that as long as the head of a bird, the King would live forever.

Here in the heart of the open-air museum, which looks like a dazzling. In all of Tanzania is God, the Sun, children, men, man so tranquil, wander among them, Tham TU PA square despatin Museum is said to be the best art museums in Asia, tickets with traditional caozhi marking, very rustic style, which is famous in bronze, dazzling wonder created by each national treasures handed down. In particular, reclined in system-heavy Windows, looking at the square of the statue, the temple is a trance and interesting. Old tiles with sound smooth chi bares is very distinctive, reflecting the then Royal insight. Rear garden now has become a lot of Westerners open-air dining area. Underground drains well preserved here, day and night with high Himalayan natural water, I pick up the order and wash sink under the open air, in the animal's head next sentiment by cleansing the pure in heart of God.

Crowded buses, it is much cheaper than 10 rbs, and draw again before returning to noisy time car congestion of themal.

Third, very casual, l

17, morning at seven o'clock, flower 350 rbs to bokhara, old coach on most Westerners.

Midway inexplicable on two meals, a rice of Curry Chicken Dinner, the restaurant in scenery in General, much as open-air leisure-snow is expected to see, eat side row scenery down there. The road to Valley Road, rough winds, is only 200 km since ran 6 hours, anyway, there is no speed concept here, do whatever free time down to procrastination.

When you have just entered boccara, charming and scenic suburb of snow like the clouds like a vague hanging in the sky, only in Nepal special elevation drop can witness this spectacular natural phenomena.

Dragging luggage to go a few stores, and take a look, feel free to talk about the price of the room. In the enthusiasm of la guests guided, pondering find quiet and open the window to see Lake, meDecided to live in than inside ropigana family hotel, built in the 4th floor of the Garden House is only 400 a night. Bath, inattention to the Lake. Find a field boundary small shops to the bottle of Coke to watch the sunset of the Lake, next to a boyish enthusiasm to recommend tours, presumably meaning that give me the cheapest price, I was a bit warm to wander. Sunset violet w Lake against the distant hills near water contours overlap, particularly obsession, as close to the artistic conception of the traditional Chinese landscape painting, so fascinating I leisure.

Night wandering in the candle light, there is nothing in the shop to buy your drinks, from instant noodles to RMB 8 element, since eating expensive than Lhasa, in the tourist area of almost total consumption and Lhasa.

Drinking alone India red wine, eat something of beans and dried fruit. Tame boss called boiled water and place in Bowl, very moving. Nepal tourist reception service level is relatively high, Lhasa as the Yarlung zangbo River hotel will please use Nepal waiter, every time I go to their faces are linked to foot a smile.

After a stroll along the Lakeside, splendid home, without worrying that fled the crowds, but Tim accustomed loneliness.

There are too few people, most Westerners, Internet system no Chinese internal, expensive and slow. It seems that two Chinese shop and saw the five step hangs upstairs "overflow" exceptionally friendly, Heung Yuen at Lhasa and bleaching of Yunnan boss frankly say is like here would stay down, business talk, it seems to play and make money. Hubin road is full of tourist shops and family hotel, with menus are attached to the street, everything is ready for the holiday. I like to go to the Lake, the gate part for spraying featured puzzle open restaurant sit, only Western food to eat, drink a cup of tea, take a look at the book, the surrounding are strange, watching the Lake bath with Sun is a great happiness, this is also the most casual boccara. Next sat bit single men, we both, from eyes to use bad language exchanges, he comes from France, just went to Lhasa, Tibet with incredible to describe progress. Then back to Canada are we meet again. In bokhara mainly concentrated in bewa Lakes, is Asia's hot leisure resort is climbed on top of cloud clouds fall also-free yourself, like a return to childhood country house, carefree days, as if the clock is slow in bokhara dial, freedom, and the stars, let people less impetuous, more quiet, this is the slow life.

The next day take a small vessel to Lake Island, with national characteristics was sharp and narrow wooden vessel in the hands of skilled boatmen slip.

The island is small, a temple, is full of pigeons, but from another point of view Lake at Snow Mountain feast for the eyes, beautiful. Aerial view of the mountain there are paragliding can unique glacier landforms, or hiking in the mountains. Sitting quietly for a long time, until a young Chinese and I awoke, the original point at the red mark on his forehead, he as been to Beijing, simple Chinese, young and dynamic, is typical of India movies handsome guy. He said he likes Chinese, I said that in fact there are also quite good. Returns the collection of tickets cheap only when to 50.

Stay for two days, and had to work the next day, too lazy to toss to South Beach Bay, watching wild animals, elephants, rhinoceros horn.

Add decided booking, go to back to were confused when booking is 1000 or 500, in any case where there is a small business, treacherous must ask price and with small notes, this is not the way to dinner once eat yabakui.

No. 20, the last time at the station-see dawn of stretch for snow, soft lighting and iceflow tectonic astutely charming, Mira, and mountains.

Road meets with the red flag, the young communists to drivers for political contributions, no legendary fear, just revolution also need capital. All the way there is a public tap water, but traditionally rural like his game in the doorway, yellow, hands on cooking and eating, though seemingly behind but very juicy.

Journey Lawton and dangerous, the cliff, curved Valley and multiple layers of terraces and attraction.

Back to messy with all finally relaxed, travel safety first, although the scenery in the perilous peak, back to Lhasa to fly.

IV. bhadgaon-----open-air Art Museum

Also free for two days, Sun bathing, surfing, climbing on top of listening to the birds, or the streets litter go, still lazy's day.

Open the computer only to find themselves sitting on "elevator", United States people crazy pull high world agricultural prices, let the Chinese eat transgenic soybean plots at a high price. Today the flute playing snake India people stimulate performance, Cobra will dance, I timidly and Cobra light seconds, 10 rupees tips look silly.

I like to go over and inexplicable du bus Plaza, anyway I have time, have the opportunity to treasure, the third went to the Royal Plaza.

This time I met the Palace Museum, the Palace Guard, wearing tall and handsome Gorkha Saber. Visit the content is the King family, riding an elephant hunting Tiger, King like yourself honours, praises, luxury ornate. There are many students organizations visited, content too much more I feel like the clouds fog, was shaky stage of history, perhaps you can find the root cause of the slow development. Democratic progress in the end result is 07 King or deposed. Only the big eye in the sky of carved wooden doors know all this, the sacred Bull eventually cattle.

Have long heard that bhadgaon best du bus Plaza, strange in the same period in the history of the Kathmandu Valley has three dynasty got together since the troubles.

The afternoon finished up later, I spent 500 rupee playing Alto type car, there is no spell guest a bit of a waste of resources. In fact, tourism is the most ironic meaning of smoke-free industry, sheep Lakes and expert debate. I think that the tourism industry is a smoke-free emperors new clothes, without restraint men desire for material gratification, tourism increased emissions, solar and contradictions on polysilicon. Unless you don't sit in cars and planes, and scanty, even on foot to eat cows fart also increase emissions, destroy the ecological environment. Finished, so cut off it's a bit of a mess.

Bhadgaon Chinese passport tickets cheaper to 150, a bit too cheaply tourism resources, old wooden stairs also open restaurant bar, relatively few points here tourists, orderly streets, alleys and quiet, full of open-air Art Museum, more worthy to live down.

Alex HornSound found the famous Temple of the Gnata Pola, here is one of Nepal tourist signs. Now that is a Maoist Communist Party in the Assembly, the mammoth. Many people sit in on the fun of heritage statue, red flag fluttering, singing and dancing, passionate speaker, brainwashed with revolutionary thought, somewhat like a fanatic of the cultural revolution. CPN's political propaganda out of is good, and these have horses, columns, Mao book sale. Everyone is smiling at me this no belief in the "comrades". But there is another next to the upper floors, Western tourists side spice coffee side enjoying revolution, I do not know what color revolution.

Bhadgaon of pottery is a vast, black pottery, in the hands of folk craftsmen work become art merchandise, rotation, I buy a fish shape lampstands as a Memorial.

The street was paved with red brick and tile a texture, old beautiful, yearend, each brick is the witness of history, each building are works of art, I compare with maps. You can say bhadgaon is my eyes the most beautiful and most peaceful of the ancient city.

Returns a crowded bus, familiar can be described as the 1980s China, even during rush hour also climbed on the roof, a little ridiculous.

Air pollution, car stuck, mess, even the police are too blind to see that it is family planning policy. Street advertising with Chinese products, look at the Lenovo computers, KONKA TV do.

Early in the four seas restaurant looking boss booked back to Lhasa ticket to 2200 RMB, buy puppetry, wood plates, marvellous, Pamir, jewellery, arts and crafts shawls, with your plug.

Many mainland tourism product is nothing more than to pick up the goods on here. Due to the wee hours also in the vicinity, annoying is insomnia disco, had to move to the previous å Japan build-up of the hotel.

Clean good mood, 24, went to the airport early, compared to domestic is empty, you have to go to the airport tax, contributions to the point, just plan better keep only a few rupees for Memorial, simple security facilities, in the passenger's physical touch to touch to toss about twice.

Plane soar up that soon flew over Mount Everest, we have, what the camera side is Mount Everest? White Earth. I also asked me to shoot next to the foreigner a bird's-eye view of the world, as the air of the Memorial.

Last time I from bird's eye view of the sky of familiar Scorpion-shaped blue sheep Lakes, goodbye once stood guard over Kong Bala.

Arrived at noon, when you exit the airport gongga got me please go to cross-examine, passport photo to leave, then look at my site appearance can be considered good, and not Tibetan. independence activists (haha, intermediate plus points). After 17 days apart back to Lhasa, winter weather, depression, soak up the last time the rhodiola, walking Street, doomed to me passer. Two days later, I flew back to Chengdu over five years in Tibet.

The future of 2008, is destined to be an extraordinary year.

Life is too short to post, Phagocytic time recalling, I just want to be a hermit, hidden in a city having stolen the half day of free time, spirit fun, smile and say: "he is father and mother."

In December 2007 in the Builing Mianyang
