A lone Nepal (camphor exit)

From Xinjiang to Tibet, the four days of the new hidden line plus two days and three nights of Ali small lines, accompanied by fellow travelers were Suao, half-way to fly back to Lhasa revolt from Beijing.

Good hotel in Lhasa with people also could not find a suitable partner, unwilling to abandon the plan and had to go to Nicaragua, even the toilet at the people not the package.

From Lhasa to LaGarde full go land has three options:

First, the Lhasa to Kathmandu opened in international train, low season a bus every Friday, season Tuesday am.

This is the most convenient route, take two and a half days, the fare is $ 580.

Second, to be found from Lhasa Zhangmu Jietuan of off-road vehicle, generally, the Toyota 4500 to camphor, about 15 hours on the road at a cost of about $ 400.

On the night of the living in the wood, the second day of departure. The friendship bridge to find someone to carpool 500 rupees to Kathmandu, or take the local bus 200 rupees to Kathmandu.

III. from Lhasa, Shigatse by bus to 4 hours, $ 50, live in Shigatse.

The next day and then take the bus (jinbeiche) to camphor, about 15 hours, fare of $ 185, camphor, day live on the third day.

Because the first approach to equal time, not economic, in addition to something other than no, see what advantage; the second approach for a person to go out, apparently not too easy to find the car to find someone more trouble; so I used the third option, the bus to camphor, this independent and economy.

The wood of the small town is the end point of the 318, the longest national highway from Shanghai and travel along the way, eager for the mountains and along the magnificent harmony, even a breath away 5 thousand kilometers to the wood, it is a bond tightly tied up one end of the East China Sea in the metropolis and the other end of the Southwest frontier town.

Located in the Valley of the wood of the town, unusually, circled in the mountain Street, standing on the balcony of the hotel to see a few streets away from the country of departure.

This day is September 22, yesterday night's rain had not completely stop, the peaks of the likes of a misty cloud, the sea of green, verdant. My back large packages, with careful packing up to $ 1000 RMB of coins. In the wood of the swap rate is 1: 8.8. Easy to take, I 16-500 nominal value and the nominal value of 8 pieces of 100, the currency is not false, although I don't know, it is very reassuring. The wood of the streets carrying a small bag of those who are engaged in the business, they earn a living, or comparisons focus on reputation. And repeatedly told you, spend the back can also pulls back, of course, I'm waiting for you in exchange for the exchange rate of the RMB is not so.

In order to cut corners, I walked up the stairs next to the hotel, the rain of stone steps are wet and slippery, and rear 65 liter large package weight and front 25 l bags shielding his eyes, it is very difficult, however.

Have embarked on this road, regret it, can only hold the mossy walls trembling down rub. The careful, a case of direct-fear of a slip and slide the foot into convincing, not into being first abroad, often make hero tears moistens flap. Alas, a woman, you want to go out and mixing, easy?

Somehow, someone special today on transit, see the end of the first missing almost all long longli Nepal, intermediate mixed with several dial back large package of foreigners.

I stood in the team as escargot tail followed the crowd forward creep, front and rear are Nepal, women were dressed in a Sari, the rich colours of the man wears a beautiful nation brow in force, already smell the taste of the exotic. I search a donkey tracks, while in the intense ideological struggle, not to jump to the front to opportunist. Finally defeated the Chinese international practice has always been speculative psychology, frankly queue stations over an hour before we got to the stage of registration.

I completed the formalities carried out cover from the chapter of passport just out of the gate, a small vans drivers called out to me, this young man to go to the friendship bridge over the goods.

The wood of the Customs out after 8 km of open land to the friendship bridge, take a $ 10, the car and pulled a Nepal middle-aged man set off. This 8 km of the road is not near, muddy road has been coiled, between the Castle and Blue Mountain there is lush and Green Mountain, Valley, there is a fluffy luxuriant wildflowers. Flow fountain waterfall dropped from the sky and move about from gurgling, at the foot of some white practice like a scissors to the mountains of green jade cut into pieces.

The driver is a Sichuan boy, from the army demobilized after making a living from home here, nature optimistic driver on the way to give me tell in the way of things the hard way during the rainy season; the superb stunts Nepal drivers.

Friendship Bridge from Zhangmu to decrease altitude 300 m, in the wood of the pasta but also with the pressure cooker, the friendship bridge to no, 2100 metres and 1770 meters difference can be really big.

Car in the streets of the friendship bridge, the bridge is in the territory of Nepal.

Friendship Bridge is a 1983 in Nepalese Governments working together under the newly-built, the original of the bridge in 1981 of the flood to the ruined. Standing on the bridge I evon bridgehead to tear the motherland, finally decided to embark on a foreign land. Go out like a child from the mother, the next thing on your own. With over ten years ago self-study Xu English volume one, there is a dictionary, apparently solid wenquxing, have yourself a strong fear of bile: what car to the mountain will have road.

Bridge over there is the Nicaraguan border town, a narrow street on both sides are packed House, just to see which is the local clearance procedures.

After exploring, in the enthusiasm of the staff of Nicaragua to find local advice. Processing of room with a row of counters, and from there to the small form of printing rough, not many projects also not easy to fill out. Finally I canFill all-fill up, don't understand it empty, into the hands of a visa officer. I saw that the visa officer looked at me, PHENIX several pen to white space to fill, attached in passport cards small pieces of paper, placed for walking.

Watch the gentle visa officer, I have lost no time in asking: where the toilet? down his hand a means, in the room there is a little door on the left.

Big bag on the visa officer nose there is no need to worry about lost, I quickly drill into all the way to resolve the concern, as I feel behind the long distance ride away to worry about.

I didn't expect to find a car after a very uncomplicated, although after somebody to go out you won't go to Kathmandu, but their car are Minato enough 4 personal to go, one of the disadvantages appeared again.

Watch out for people after three group 1 group ride on the bus, I was carrying a large bag like a head of a fly randomly around the street. Well in this small town also has a restaurant in the hotel, there are a lot of foreigners living here in the nearby mountain travel, should really didn't go into, you can live in tomorrow.

Stop along the small streets filled with cars, SUVs, vans and trucks, there are several buses in the distance.

Before going to invade and immediate local bus to Kathmandu, fares for 200 rupees. Asked to drive time, always hear: wait, do not know how much time will be.

Are psychologically, the distance a gemstone blue coach let me eyes bright, international departure from the friendship bridge over there, it's a powerful sound of Thunder ", to the salvation of the Communist Party.

Before I close to the front, he was on the road lanke car boss caught: "Kathmandu 500 rupees, going to quickly get in". I said to go to Tamil, car boss wants to didn't want to just nodded, no problem. Before I talk immediately to be men and packages into the compartment.

New carriage straggling sat ten passengers, the middle two familiar faces are happy with me Hello, I put the note in Lhasa with auspicious days when there was a small turn of Zhuhai, xiaomin and small Chao.

Them and a couple of the foreigner to make the trip by Everest camphor, exit after joining the international bus. As ever, Everest, plus fare expensive, there is no help with their travel. I didn't expect to encounter here, it is fate.

This bus was Tuesday's overtime car, car, mostly from the Nepal businessmen attend trade shows back in Lhasa, the car with a lot of Chinese goods, sanitary napkins, paper towels, SOAP, blankets, and other daily necessities.

This car is more like a coach, behind each seat cover are stuffed with a Nepal travel book. This is hung with Nepal's car, drivers licence is Nepal who drive technology was very good, was able to squeeze a sewn, stuck to the eaves Chungching. Out of town bus all the way to the formation of the meandering roads ran to the left of the car is flowing from the wood of the rolling up of wave song River, on the other side is lush and green mountains, roadside banana man, a dream under the moonlight.

Are we immersed in the picturesque landscape, with Windows and was off in the car stopped.

Not far away there is a suspension bridge, the bridge was to attend to something, so here is a tourism project, aerial bungee, height is 170 m. Not a rope tied up, along with a scream, a yellow hair flying girl jumped from the bridge into a free fall, then is several round shells falling. This thrilling sport maybe and I have, maybe I never experience from the feeling of falling down, however, from a girl's voice, I still feel the excitement and stimulation of transcendence.

A fast way to enter the town, the road is always full of gasoline tanks or tire of roadblocks, roadside fortifications in wearing camouflage soldiers charge ammunition lying prone on the sandbags the greedy eyes on, traffic, parking of motor vehicles will be constantly checked.

Only our award-winning international bus, lights are smooth. Just like the roadblocks between the wound to much trouble.

At four o'clock, the car into a small parking, food, I had a roadside drilling in a small restaurant, imparted already well prepared for the first meal, dinner.

I ordered a copy of the 40 roubles of vegetarian, man took out a big plate of sharp creases, rice, curry potatoes, boiled vegetables, melons and shredded pea, yellowish in curry paste and red pepper paste it is, in addition to a small bowl bean soup. Food tastes really afraid to flattered, only the small bowl bean soup also easy entrance.

Bus passes through several towns in the Valley with all after entry, a temperate climate with warm, moist air, full sunshine.

North of the Himalayas as a natural barrier standing in the cold winter of Qinghai-Tibet plateau, summer southeast monsoon brings a heavy rain, mountains covered with ridge of plant nutrient dense, vigorous boom. Large rice fields in the mountains, like a huge blanket spread out the glorious land. Green in mixed with red brick building, the crest, red and green and white.

The road from time to time a school of school-age children in school, the students wore neat uniforms, boy's white t-shirt, blue jeans, white shirt and blue skirt for girls.

Whenever two vehicles meet the children eagerly waved to us little hands, compartment then outgoing a laughter. Don't look at Nepal this small country is classified as least developed countries, but people's children sat school, wearing the uniform clothing, warm and courteous, visible in Nicaragua on the importance of education.

Åœ — äº¬æ — ¶é — ' 19 points (Nepal time later than Beijing time 2 hours 15 min), shuttle bus into the plus is a station, we got out of the car.

Ask the driver how not to Tamil, shake their head and say the driver does not know the place. Our carrying large packages, watching station streets bustling with links to the North could not be found. Look at the car people every one out of the station, take the bus to disappear in the billowing in the traffic, not to say that quickly follow suit.

Stopped for a few

Car to 200 rupees, the last one with the same car with Nepal businessmen take a car. My backpack doesn't fit the rack, but into the compartment. Our three sitting in the back, behind the small Chao neck carrying Nepal merchants brought blankets, lap across my big bag, the way he always managed to pull a large package, and try to help me. Cars in the streets around the way, no one will work in a outlet hotel located blocks, Tamil. Crafty Nepal businessman asked us to 200 rupees fare, can he take so many goods like white riding? finally we gave 150 rupees.

Watching the sky lit up the night, the street a colorful neon, Gu is not really so much, I followed xiaoliangkou nearest drilling a hotel.

Wrestling with the representations of the SLIM is xiaomin quiet girl is obviously not a hard bargain of veteran, a listen to the boss quoted 200 rupees per person, immediately think of the price is very cheap, no offer was nodded. We followed the boss on the second floor at the room, open two House away, 24 hours hot water in the bathroom, the entrance there is a common balcony, basic functionality, in this way.

Run in, xiaoliangkou going to the great wall hotel know tourist information, a careful xiaomin before going out to my left her cell phone number, let me just in case anything you find them.

Pinch xiaomin to my business card, hot heart, although I know they won't trouble you, but I feel, though in a foreign land as an example, although a person as though it alone and not alone.
