Nepal (1) — fly ground

After India's strong sensory stimulation, came to Nepal, found here from the vision, taste, smell, hearing, light a little warm sunshine, Kathmandu and Nepal surrounding and friendly people are giving me a kind of lazy relax feeling.

Until I stand in Sarangkot, watching the distant green luxuriant mountains and valleys, pure blue edge that a watercolour-like creepy white and sparkling snow, at this very moment, noon is shining bright sun has never let me tired lazy.

— — Only because there is wind.

"If this time, the window with the wind, I have reasons to fly.

I'm behind, paragliding hands Sebastien is a flat slope of the mountain, unfurled huge orange paragliding, careful assessment, grooming good rope line, and then as I wear equipment — a baby cradle-like seat, simply told me that several points, such as body posture in the air, screw up or down the leg angle of swing, finally took his seat and my buckle together, all settled in place, said to me: Let's get started, please forward.

Forward? this is a 1590 m high Hill, intellectually, I know it is by running your acceleration, but a bit mental, or commit failed.

Fortunately, the fear to rush out, just at that moment Flash, fast even open your mouth has not had a chance to voice cried aloud, and was never replaced by fresh and exciting.

I feel like a "hacker Empire" classic lens, a step in the action, and then pause hold the air of grace, let the wind blowing in the wind to support us.

The beginning of the back, see Orange paragliding already in the air filling into a beautiful arc, white rope-line light arises with the two of us, like the quiet blue sea as a free jellyfish, start the rotation and lightness.

I started to push with Sebastian, fly higher.

He told me to wait patiently for the best wind direction. Sure enough, a little later, he took me to start circling-rise. We floated across the sparkling ha'afeva Lake terrace over the lush countryside, past the tree Green Mountain Ridge, distant snow-capped mountain as if she is coming, within reach. Bright sun, they appear to be crystal clear, with a crystal-like, the Earth in green and blue of the Lake against the, it still is very beautiful, but less copy real hardships, daunting and difficult to conquer, much kind of intimacy.

There are two top color colorful paraglider from the snow before drifting away, red and yellow umbrella surface in the White mountains before bloom, free tip of the vast land-gallop.

That moment I had the inexplicable that Goethe in "Faust", said one:

People every day to fight for freedom and living conquers freedom and life.

Heart envy, I hurried Sebastian also want to go there.

He told me, it's just I see their point of view, because the snow was too high too large, seemingly so close, but still far away. Because the relationship between weight, only their own solo, experience and suitable wind, will it be possible to climb over the mountains here, to get snow.

So I had to "peeps" nostalgia.

Sebastian takes me away from fees go to Siwa, on the other side of the landscape.

There are lush woods and green valleys of the terrace, the farmhouse, and children playing in the yard. See us over, the children are competing to running, inverted up smiling, waving his hands, jumping to greet us, crisp of cheering. Sun small face red, sincere simplicity, brilliant.

Here, fly low, feel almost foot touch the tops, just light that can sway of the branches to a "nationalist government"-style tengnuo over and fly aloft at the youth pre-employment training Eagle from the feet, feel second rib wind, emotional disputes, heroic livings.

Finally, you can "and Eagles in the Himalayan Valley between.

It is a sentence on this LP makes me very deeply, so I came to bokhara after the first thing is to join the gliding Sunrise.

That is 1 January 2007, I gave myself an unforgettable new year's gift. Many days later, when I went back to Kathmandu, Inn roof lounge in the Sun, he saw a bird flew through the air, in total disregard of the Inn little boy "Sparrow and the Crow", stubborn thinks it must be the Eagle because I have been to fly with them.

Decline, suddenly thought of the movie "Bridget diary 2" poor George w. in pigsty of "targeted", good landing in our Sebastian firmly in the paragliding landing at Lake area of farmland, let me to gloat about George w. regrets.

Those idle days-Nepal (Nepal)

Since the decision together in Nepal in this period of time, we next morning or do a simple division of labour: second---translation, boss--accounting, third---cashier, master-responsible for doing some great things decided

Ha'afeva Lakes of l is a laid-back place, because the cost is extremely cheap, drug legitimate, many young people to life-long West of here is not to go home, no work, no ideal, no belief of decadence day, late at night you can see many Western small young in the street with a small bottle of Royal whisky tilted down pour of wandering in the streets, where the Royal not France Royal of Louis 13 oh is Nepal's local whisky, very cheap, only a few dollars a bottle, taste good, drink a bottle of Royal whiskey became us in Nepal must show every evening.

L major play out to Anna spurna mountain hiking, day after sleep lanjiao in small town deadbeat Daddy, morning spent 65, coins have a big cheese at breakfast, Morning tea also changed to Morning beer.

In the afternoon went to talk to a small bar to see the Lake and go and sit in the Sun, bathed in the warm sunshine, bar terrace a sleepy sleeps in the afternoon.

Mixed start out in the evening taste national cuisine, a Western-style food, Nepal, India, Tibet, Japan restaurant, Korea restaurant, or even hotter, but most are Nepal Edition, the price is very cheap, in addition to the beer was expensive, everything else is perfect.

In the small town of bokhara idle over the two days later, I decided to go for a walk, a bike along the Lake to the mountains for ha'afeva ride go, I rode very far along the way, are the people warm and Nepal I called Hello, then ride of approximately 20 km after I came to a small village, at the entrance of a group of children playing carefree chase each other, see I rode into the village began to curious chasing my bike all the way, also as a truck-like shouting: "Yellow, Yellow" makes me feel great with a pair of joked a gesture, but they just sent jimaoxin down message tree little eight-way.

I am good and funny, Unsteadiness riding the bike back to amuse with their playing, suddenly I found children flock of a face, a pure and innocent and sad faces, a to infinite face, I have never been touched by a child's face, but this time I was thoroughly impressed, the pitiful I know I will once again came to this country, the small village, and just for her.

She is always so sad to see you, I always wanted to make her happy, I feel, I always wanted to give her anything, but I didn't bring anything, so I ran to the store, buy next to an offering of the best sweets, each child is divided into several pieces, and then I put all that to her, she was holding the candy, still very sad.

Later, I am very serious about 3 MM that I really want to stay and watch her grow up, stay, the best of my ability, all to protect her, love her, let her happily ever grow up (Hey, do you think I'm corny AH), three MM saw my camera photos after thought so, said: "you must have fallen in love with her.

Nepal, people soul dreams around the place ...

Go to Nepal travel very casual, 06 summer went to Lhasa-Tibet line, meet playmates plans to go to Nepal, I just have time to cobble together a hilarious.

I didn't expect to Nepal, the world's only Hindu state, covering only 14.7 million kilometers, it has 8 block altitude 8000 meters above the mountains. Diverse landscapes, pristine rural, low consumption, deeply attracted me, just two years successively went 3 times, Nepal is a soul dreams around the place.

First of all say that visas from 08 July Nepal to China to receive visa fees, visa is $ 175 for 15 days, 30 days is 280.

Shanghai is the Office therefore also extra handling fee of $ 60, visa need only bring valid for 6 months or more passport and 2 photos, to fill in the form on the line, 3 business days, you can handle.

Change money, last time I was in July 2008, at that time the Tamil area (Thamel) Yuan RMB against rupee: 9.6 RS 1, I was in the wood of the change of 1: 10.35, flying to people can go to the Chinese people of Phoenix hotel boss swap, you can wrap to 1: 10.

Rupee basic no counterfeit money, at least I didn't come across.

Climate, Nepal in the dry season (Oct-may) and the rainy season (May-September), the best travel season is fall (September-November) and spring (March-May) pleasant climate.

Of course I felt all year for tourism in Nepal, I just go in when the rainy season, although Hill Road, mud and pigra with many did not participate in the walk, but I still have a suitable for rainy River can drift and boccara accident saw the fishtail peak. But when the low season to worry about transportation and accommodation, you can just pick you satisfied with the room, and in high season can't imagine the price down. The rainy season to bring waterproof clothing or quick-dry clothes. Winter time to mountain hiking on the need to take emergency grab wool jacket and sweater.

Kathmandu, whether by air or from zham into Nepal, first stop is Kathmandu Tamil area, it is Kathmandu foreign tourists gather Centre districts, a variety of hotels, restaurants and bars make you amazed all kinds of delicacies can make you big buds.

Accommodation, if English is not good to chosen China opened hostel, Phoenix, Tarzan, the great wall and the great wall has been longyou was not found, Phoenix and Tarzan has many business Chinese, longyou more suitable for young backpackers, but these are very old room relative. I lived in longyou 2, is a newly renovated, the rooms and the environment are good, this time to hear that sold to Japan. English go or choose a more distinctive Nepal opened the hotel, I lived in a House called Tibet Guest House in the Tamil region South of an alley, very quiet, all rooms have maintained very well, and is very comfortable and clean, double room with a balcony. The hotel has a large patio, guests can sit at the breakfast on the roof garden can see monkey Temple, sunset sit here and drink a cold beer is really comfortable again. I went was off-season double room price is RS 500, personally think that the price is very high. Don't bother with the Tamil Street soliciting Hotel photo, they will usually get very high from rebates, from luxury hotel to cheap hotels here, you can slowly.

Travel on the first day in the morning just to find a place to drink a glass of local masala tea (recommended) to several samsa (triangle dumplings), hiking to du Bal Plaza, RS 200 tickets, to the Plaza South Site Office show tickets and Passport Office a pass, a 7-day unlimited access.

Most of the buildings on the square was built in the 17th century and the 18th century, it includes hanu Armando card Palace (old palace), and various temples, 1979 the whole square is designated as a world heritage. Enter the square will have a tour around you, if your English is good enough, and you want to know more about it in the heart of beautiful temples, may wish to request a fee is not high, guided tours, generally 200 RS. I still prefer to stroll along the square or sit in the Temple of high level, look around and go, time goes by so unknowingly, totally and I am already touch the soul of this ancient city. At noon, at the square around looking for a restaurant, with a view on a balcony in Nepal dishes, try some of the locals love to drink lentil soup, after point a glass of freshly squeezed juice (strongly recommended). Afternoon on foot or by car in around 100 RS Swayambhunath Temple, also known as Monkey (Monkey Temple), RS 50 tickets, monkey Temple was built at the top of the Hill, is the most easily identifiable Nepal landmark. A herd of monkeys in occupies a hill, which is affectionately known as the monkey Temple. The temple can be seen on all four sides of the tower with the Buddha insight into all eyes, the eyes become Nepal national symbols and signs. Standing at the top of the Hill, overlooking the Valley of Kathmandu and great scenery. Sunny, Himalayan mountains contour, sunset time, is a fascinating sight. In the evening back to Tamil can go to the Third Eye Restaurant restaurant, the restaurant is very popular, India cuisine is featured here, mud oven dishes I think it is delicious, and Nepal package is the best I ever ate a delicious. The next day to make a car to despatin, you have to walk past the mood, while walking along the way, about 1 hour or so. It is said that to your tickets, but I went a few times I didn't come across ticketing, my method is directly inside the du bus Plaza, the fare is around 80 to 100 RS. Spend a day visiting despatin is sufficient, you can also choose to stay overnight in Pago Tan, I feel that there is no such a need, there is close from the Tamil, there is here a selection of the hotel is also very limited. Pago Tan tourist attractions are concentrated in du bus Plaza surrounding, alley also has several missed yard, sink and water wells, want to know here in public life, through to the old city Criss courtyards and lanes is veryInteresting. Du bus Plaza surrounding restaurants are very romantic, you can select a home there. Pago Tan handicrafts and gold for build are famous, slightly lower prices than the Tamil, afternoon scouring scouring shop "shopping", a counter-offer of range depends on the individual skills. In addition, there are the square du Temple not to be missed, the Temple of the cornice pole lithography have a clear picture of pornography, this temple is located in a brick of a square base, which has its own specific in me. The third day lie-in back room, bulky luggage there hotel, take a taxi to be commodities Bhakta Boolean, fare approximately 150 to 200 RS, takes about an hour. Tickets are $ RS, Chinese passports as long as 50 RS, don't miss this offer! I live in Pakistan square edges of Shiva Guest House (Shiva hotel) is a very broad perspective corner room, overlooking the Plaza, room 400 RS, compares favourably with many other room. Hotel a layer is a comfortable restaurant, inexpensive. In addition, I recommend a hotel Guest House in Bhadgaon Taumadhi square, is a good accommodation, downstairs there is a comfortable rest Hall, hotel room very clean, the top floor with private balcony rooms are very popular, can overlook the whole Taumadhi square and spectacular scenery of the Himalaya mountains. The price I had to ask when is asking price 15 USD, feeling or a value. To just after noon, the Sun is drying, hotel downstairs drinking fruit juice at the scenery. Compared to Kathmandu and despatin, Bhakta Boolean to quiet a lot, live here, people still like centuries ago that humour. Spend more time in the Bhakta Boolean stay is very worthwhile, and that is what I choose to live in one of the reasons here. Evening at du bus Plaza shopping mall, Plaza, don't miss the old palace entrance gate, 55 window Palace, bronze and wood carving art is very beautiful, is a rare art treasures. Stroll tired and local people together in a corner of the square of the promenade next sat. The fourth day, breakfast downstairs in the hotel, try here well-known amuse Jujudhau (yogurt). Then visit Taumadhi Plaza, Tachupal Tole or Dattatraya Square Plaza, the most famous Peacock window here, also pottery square is not to be missed. Here, wood carving, puppetry and paper crafts is well worth the purchase, the price is relatively cheap. After lunch return to Tamil area by car, a NAP in the hotel, go to the travel agency will be identified on the evening of the second day tschida Mong three days and two nights itinerary, including the first day of rafting, canoeing, tropical jungle adventure, riding an elephant adventure, visit the elephant breeding Center, night watch native performances, two nights resort accommodation, all meals, guided tours, as well as from tschida Mong to bokhara fare, there are 72 USD should be value for money. Here with the mission not as domestic a regiment is 30 to 40 people, here are a few small groups, individual registration is a mission, this time we six people is a mission. Some travel agents of national guide, service is very intimate, eating good, at least not a good meal is a duplicate, you've come for a meal and Chinese food. Also possible is the low season, no matter what our six people are very satisfied with it. However this season to special heat, tschida Mong is winter day or just need a short sleeve is enough. Next, by rafting, this project is not missed, Nepal is the world's best rafting destination in the world. General first rafting will select level lower color delivery River or turquoise Suri River, from Kathmandu to tschida Mong or bokhara can drift and ride one day and two days, I suggest that as long as a day of rafting, most intense first day, second day drifting very gentle. Of course, if you want to experience again at the scenery of Chui Suri River tent at night feeling, you can select two days. General costs which contain all of the costs, includes lunch and fare, two-day also contains two for lunch, dinner and a night in tents. Eat relatively simple, the tour guide also is to coach your own salad, bread, biscuits, fruit juices, etc.

Tschida Mong is with the group here to omit the, say, l, l from tschida Mong to approximately 6 to 7 hours and departure time from Kathmandu.

Intermediate will dock 2 times, so don't worry about breakfast. The station will have a lot of drivers are found, just find a talk about the good price, generally between 100 and 150 or so. Kathmandu to bokhara of round in the hotel can provide to, generally booked will have fixed seats, season Forester for the month of October, I to Kathmandu from bokhara is sitting on the roof top 7 hours. Now that I think is also a kind of experience, very interesting. About the accommodation, the majority of people live in the Lake District, there are pinged distribution in hotels, cheap hotel, travel agencies, restaurants and shops. Enjoy quiet tend to live in the north shore. I live in the North near the lakeside Park Guest House, along the lakeside in direction North is to the West of the road, is a private hotel with a garden, very clean, near West room can see ha'afeva Lake, some rooms have a balcony, on the top floor of the balcony, I public is there were pleasantly surprised to see the fishtail peak. Season with a balcony to see the view of the price is approximately 500 to 600 RS RS, low season is just around 300 to 400 RS RS. However there is no air conditioning in the room, the afternoon, when a little heat. There are many around you can choose from the hotel, are available at a discount. Trance, l is the most suitable place, many people will say "rotten" bokhara, do so. Ha'afeva Lake Lake clear, sunny, Lake reflection at the North of the snowy mountains, very beautiful. Hunan surface peaks, dense forest cover. Find a surface Lake Cafe, sat on one afternoon, what I most like to do here. This juice is very good, 80 RS can to a large Cup, definitely not mixed with a drop of water, can also make a call Lassi yogurt drink, taste good, really make people surprises. You can rent a bokhara in self-Crane Lake tour, or to the old town, l to stroll about, here compared to the noise of the Lake is a simple and quiet, you can see a lot of traditional handicraft shops and small temples. Can drive a motorcycle of a can also be rented motorcycle when 1 am to Sarangkot (Mulberry ran Kut), located on the northwestern side of bokhara, is a concept best place Himalayan Sunrise, if you do not want to challenge your physical strength and stamina, and no extra holidays may be over, but not willing to give up close to mountains, may wish to consider to this walk. The rainy season sees snow mountain and the probability of a sunrise. There are many in bokhara deserve to participate in the activities of, such as boating, rafting, hiking, kayaking, trekking, tactical aircraft see flying wing gliding and paragliding. Nepal complete ecotourism project is a fit for you.

From l to Kathmandu, I lost in Tamil streets, various clothing, embroidered ornaments, jewellery, Gorkha traditional machete, tapestry carpets and silk sari makes me burn until you spend all of his pocket money, a good home has increased by 2 large bags, Nepal is a veritable shopper's paradise.

It should be noted that in Nepal have many Outfitters, of which many are cheap imitations, buy when you want to read carefully. Cash withdrawal with credit in Nepal are inconvenient, and handling fees are very high, and likes to buy things MM or take more cash, RMB. Nepal consumption is not high, two years ago there was a Beijing retired teachers and our company's almost live is here presented in the hotel, also participated in a 2-day rafting, he didn't buy it, less than 10 ceilings 1500 RMB, the season is estimated to be slightly higher. In Nepal had enough time and have time for friends, you may consider turning to India, Nepal visas than at home, go to the Embassy of India fill forms, passport, and another 300 RS, three days after the last flight from India left (you can find travel agencies do fake tickets, about 2000 RS charges), two photos and 3000 RS. New Delhi from Kathmandu to the airfares as long as 100 USD, however often late, I sit, this flight is delayed for a whole 8 hours, and without any explanation.

La RI nagging introduces a lot, hoping to bring back some of my friends.

Nepal this beautiful country, I will go.

Mysterious ancient Kingdom-Nepal trip

Nepal's climate and a bit like in Chengdu, Sichuan, morning and evening is hazy. Kathmandu is the capital of Nepal, looked very worn, no high modern architecture, the first day arrived there really was a bit disappointed with the language barrier, English in Nepal, although very popular, but they say the so-called English a bit like India. However stayed in Nepal, the longer it will slowly to like this place, all attractions (in fact, should not be called attractions, only in those walls surround plus the protection of the name of the entry should be referred to as spots, but I don't know what Word to use in place of) maintained its original style, looks very natural, rustic, is quite simple, there are so many benefits ... slowly. The following are my to Nepal trip (2003.11.26-12.6)

First day at 4 p.m. non-stop flight from Pudong airport (5 hours) of Nepal's capital Kathmandu, reached about 7 o'clock local time in half (Nepal and China have a two hour time difference)

The next morning to Kathmandu Thamel district 08 (tourists agglomeration area, where the hotel restaurants much innumerable very convenient), and the afternoon walking-du-temple square and the monkey.

Du bus Plaza (Durbar Square) is the first place, here include Nepal in the 16th century to the 19th century the monument building, between the many temples, also a bit like marts, no walls, it is open to the public is, so you can see many locals on the steps of the temple rest trance, entry of foreign talent, but visitors to buy a ticket can multiple times and out of play, as long as the service description at home you can be postponed to the day (very user-friendly, and I'm not fawning, China in this regard is to be improved).

Virgins monastery (Kumari Bahal), a rustic charm. It is said that the woman living Nepal living Gallery Mary, live I failed to see that her photos to be everywhere, one of the very dense religion color makeup girl, two or three-year-old woman was chosen as the living, the foot cannot into the ground, not bleeding, to teens to abdicate, although there is a substantial "pension", but the things in life (because no one dare to marry a goddess home), very poor. Hanu Mann monkey God Palace (Hanuman Dhoka), door side stands a statue of a monkey, a monkey God hanu Mann is epic the Ramayana Jena Ramayana "on behalf of the protection of God wet slave (Vishnu) avatar — battles of Mount Ramayana, Nepal's beliefs. Therefore in Nepal monkey happy free, but then I found in Nepal animals were very happy life, monkey, cattle is their belief in God alone, dog (basically are wild dogs to sleep at night in the square, in the morning you can sleep in the sunlight to naturally wake up nobody disturb it), the dove in the old square, a free, no one would harm them, nor have the kids stuff things to eat them, in a higher place you can see many eagles fly, like in the Shanghai Zoo those large cage, "even if animal, animal animals".

In fact, the original name of Swayambhunath Monky-temple, Royan Debnath Temple, because of the mountains there are many monkeys so they call it the monkey Temple, the Temple of the monkey monkey is not as dangerous as emeishan monkey, since the tube from, do not steal your stuff or you get to eat (whether they are known as God, the posture is not the same).

We are walking from du bus Plaza to the monkey Temple, to climb the many stairs very tired. But on the way to look at human landscape, there are a lot of Nepal child will be very cordial greeting to you, "" NAMESTE also happened to see the man beside the cremation ceremony is a windfall. Monkey Temple because the terrain is high, you can view the entire Kathmandu urban

On the morning of the third day of the trip to reference the temple paspa, Bardon, a pagoda, Tan, afternoon-Abad Kong occupancy (1 hour)

Paspa mention monastery (PashupatiNath Temple), is the Hindu temples, has leather products are not allowed to enter only the readability, but can be seen in the River-lockers India human cremation ceremony (online some say is one of the crematorium is wrong, the monkey temple near the River is the only person for cremation of Nepal are differentiated, it is said that it was a day in there again, I don't really like to feel a bit BT, if anyone would like to know more, I have the whole process of photos), the original online said tickets are 75 rupees, but this time it was 250 rupees, come back and a look at the price of tickets is small sticker sticky, it looks like just the price before printing the new tickets.

No wonder the locals say the new King not only know the old King good money, but I see too many foreigners love to come here to see a cremation, the ticket price.

Southeast Asia's largest Bardon, a Stupa (Boudhanath), paspa mention monastery is India's temples, Bardon, is dedicated to the God of Nepal locals.

Stupa of Bardon, God, according to the locals say God eyes can see all the events of the world, Nepal many handicrafts on Boudha Eyes.

Nepal's capital Kathmandu is spread in the Kathmandu Valley of three towns: Kathmandu, Tan (Patan City), Bard posts (Bhaktapur city) big Kathmandu, it was said that Prince by three respectively, they looked to build a Temple pagoda, mutual pursuring bafatan, Bard posts and the preceding du bus Plaza is a bit similar.

However, I personally prefer despatin and Bard posts. Three comparison bafatan gives a Visual impact most strongly, we went in to feel full rich red.

Bard posts in three cities in the most ancient in taste, is a very quiet small town.

Online suggestion if you have extra time to go to the Bard posts live evening, we have adopted this suggestion, feel very worth it, if you want to go to Nepal must longer Bard posts for some time around everywhere, in addition to the temples, totem poles, the pagoda are very old, but more importantly here mostExperience the local customs, but also the most easily accessible local people's everyday lives. There's good news: Bard posts original fare RS750, produce a Chinese passport is simply very glad you RS50, is the Chinese people.

Fourth day from Bard posts to the widened (to the widening of the CMB sitting locals, but try it quite interesting, 1.5-2 hours).

The widening (Nagarkot) is located about 30 km east of Kathmandu, from sat CMB to need two hours mountain, is actually a small mountain village above about 2,100 meters, because from there you can looking across the Himalayas a lined up 8 seat 8 km above sea level above the mountain peak, known as Hi Myra Mountain Lookout.

We set off from Bard posts kept asking the way and finally take the local bus to the other side, I almost want to give up because the locals tell us there is a risk (as is often found in mountainous areas, traffic is the guerrillas and inconvenient). But there is really the most worth of Nepal, is the only place to see snow. (Due to fog, Nepal is always there in Sarangkot, l ', but we don't see even the most attractive mountain flight was cancelled due to fog. )

Fifth day afternoon from the widened to Kathmandu Thamel district (2-3 hours), find a local travel arrangements to the peculiar Wang and scheduled Mountain Flight (later known as a matter of fact to the peculiar Mong may or may not get to swim, just bought bus (be sure to take a coach), over there looking for a hotel, all activities are undertaken by the hotel to help you manage that freedom is great)

The sixth morning to strange Mong Nepal National Forest Park (6 hours), and in the afternoon to visit their local villages, in Rapti River at sunset and the local original dance.

Strange Mong is Nepal's largest wildlife park, is the largest one of the forest zone, which is definitely not our country that used wall surrounded the "wild" Zoo.

Be sure not to miss in Rapti River at sunset, that is a no no words.

The seventh day the morning sitting canoe to forest park, with the local people in forest adventure in search of wild animals, afternoon ride elephants into the forest.

Morning canoe, wreathing a mist on the River, to the jungle, two locals took a stick tandem with us in the jungle adventure (in fact, is in search of wild animals), in the tall grass quietly, gestured communication endeavour not to make any sound so as not to disturb animals, it seems like the thing, the last we saw white-black monkeys, crocodiles, Peacock, Tiger footprints, there is the jungle like us foreigners with the spirit of adventure

Start riding an elephant feeling is not very good, in that high place one limps a loose (second day thigh acid Evry), especially when the River was kind of scary, elephant but sitting in their possession of tourists think, pretty laidback as well walk, occasionally stopped to drink water, eat eat leaves, branches and also "uh-huh," like a bomb.

But then it got used to it. In the jungle at most clearly most rhinoceros. Interestingly once found rhino, elephant man to greet the other person (a total of 5, and 6 elephants) surrounded the two Rhinoceros for tourists to watch, that the Rhino get urgent attack, a bow with horns with an elephant, rhinoceros was just expressing their discontent faking, is not afraid to make an elephant, but it can sit on it frightened of tourists.

The eighth day the morning with the local people in forest after departure to see birds, l (5 hour journey) 08

Bokhara (POKHARE) scenery in fact and internally than nothing special, but his quiet temperament, good tourist services and the environment is not higher than the

Article 9 days from bokhara fee wow Lake (Phewa Lake) on foot to Sara Lin Kou (l is the world's famous hiking paradise, many foreigners from here start Trekking).

Sara Lin Kou (Sarangkot) is located on the northwestern side of bokhara, altitude 1,592 meters, is a day and climbing routes, as expected there is fog do not see the Sunrise we did not go according to the introduction of car rental online at sunrise, but select lie-in after hiking, mountaineering, met a lot of local students to help you with the wizard, we don't want to be an outsider to bother with online friends say, from the Lake to Sara forest ' COA ' road are ultimately reach does not require a wizard, he refused.

There is no local guide to affirm that you are not afraid to walk the path (1-2 hours one way), just like ours go Highway around (4-5 hour one-way) is reachable, but tired. At first feel, see Nepal unique trapezoid and Lake mountain view, would like to think of Nepal must do a Trekking (it is called by the foreigner is hiking paradise), but then I didn't think we had bad luck, to the top of the Hill is invisible snow visibility worse, when the Hill was no taxi, a few people along the way, the two of us on the road, really scared of trot dark also go back, but also good finally stopped a car down the car took us, just a few minutes to get rain, is unfortunately not very lucky in drowned. This is our most tired in Nepal.

The first 10 days back to Kathmandu, usually 6-7 hours, but we encounter the traffic jam on the road almost nine hours later, I heard that because of the way the locals revolted against military check were shot, very frightening, locals go gang outlet are to get off check, but tourists do not need.

11 days originally scheduled Mountain Flight (sitting small aircraft at Everest), early morning run to the airport but because of the fog lifted, though costs refund but have no chance in close contact with Everest is the visit to Nepal's biggest regret.

The day after, when I walk in the Thamel district, 11: 45 aircraft back to Shanghai on the second day at 7.

Travel advice:

1. the first night on their own to find accommodation, Thamel second day can go to the temple paspa, Bardon, a pagoda, du bus Plaza, monkey Temple (be sure to go to beat the sunset in the evening), the third day morning despatin (I think this is worth more than a place to stay for a while) afternoon Budd.

2. the recommendations must be arranged in the Mountain Flight itinerary begins, so that even first encountered heavy fog also had the opportunity to delay, we put it in the end it can only cancel, helplessly watched other foreigners will air later wait for the next opportunity.

3. go strange, can be freely arranged activities of interest.

4. in Pokhara staying a few days, all day on a fee for wow Lake trance, it can be very relaxing is ideal for slow pace of leisure, and cheaper, many foreigners like rotten in Thamel, personally think that better here than in Thamel.

5. the widening must, under the snow ate breakfast feel absolutely fine (in the warm sunshine, drinking coffee and eating Cheese Omelet, see distant snow-capped mountains, the nose was also able to feel the cold, snowy mountains sky Hawk free flew, trance fat tired a little NAP, really a fairy-like days), it is also possible that you only can face in Nepal trekking (of course if you are ready to climb snow-capped mountains excluded)

Costs:

Visa + ticket + first days accommodation 5000 yuan/person (Shanghai direct flight to Kathmandu)

Nepal is a country of tourism, tourism resources.

Thamel district in Kathmandu and boccara (the price is relatively cheap) has specifically designed for the traveler provides various services (transport, tourism, accommodation, shopping), you have to do is compare prices and services, but to be the owner doesn't allow it. And internally compare the service here is good and the price is cheap.

Live: the standard room (2 beds, 24 hour hot water in bathrooms) 3-10 dollars (Basic is a private hotel, facilities for simple, don't have too high and pray, as long as the clean is convenient, Kathmandu have star hotel but far from Thamel district not easy)

Line: General tourist coaches (5-6 hours by car): $ 60 per cent, the same way the more expensive Green Line 100 Yuan, Kathmandu city taxi up to no more than $ 20

Plays: only Mountain Flight more expensive, $ 109 probably 40 minutes, but it is definitely worth it.

Shopping: the speaking there is no bottom, Thamel district full of small shops, must be the owner doesn't allow (Thamel things more expensive by comparison but the quality is good).

We stayed for 2 people all around 11 days spent around $ 5000 (compared to spending in eating a little luxury).

Diet

Finally, be sure to talk about eating, beauty and gourmet food is the enjoyment of life.

Comparison in Nepal is delicious dishes and Western India, since here a lot of Westerners, Western food taste quite perfect, but is the steak old point (because cattle is dedicated to the God of Nepal who cannot eat, only the draught beef almost), Nepal cuisine is simple, taste like in General (local people is the right to eat, it is said that such dish of soup and rice can even mix together but I still do not have the courage to try hands). However in Nepal to enjoy gourmet patience, not you in which restaurant point which things are going to wait a long time, only comfort food is absolutely fresh. The price is very fair, basic per capita does not exceed 30 yuan (a steak dinner Oh, pizza cheaper 9 inch of ten bucks), and all the restaurant environment ambience tops (even the bus Highway restaurant has a lovely garden). We agreed absolutely Nepal: dinner, accommodation ... absolutely civilians.

Bard posts: I recommend that you have to go to the Garden facade looks Restaurant., the entered is not found, a very unique beauty with exotic and beautiful gardens, fear cold we to have dinner in the small house, small house, laid out and very ancient and mysterious, it is said that this building was the Bard Kong's oldest restaurant, sitting in a candlelight dinner with fresh delicious steak looking quiet garden light dots, I feel really good.

L: by the Lake at the end there is a restaurant, called Lotus, second floor dining room facing charges wow Lake, where we have the best steak, pies, and finally that we simply hold down the two steaks and a large tuna fish pizza only spent $ 60.

Kathmandu: Thamel district where delicious restaurants, we bought a map marked with many restaurants Thamel, we stayed there in almost according to this map will online recommended restaurants in a home for a family, not duplicate but still not all the places to eat out again, but there are two recommended: Third Eye Restaurant India restaurant, first class, be sure to eat India Kazakhstan spicy chicken (Tandoorie Chicken375 Rs), there is also a Red Curry Chicken Tikka Masala to do with India scones (Naan) is also very delicious.

Nepal Restaurant native Nepal restaurant, they were vegetarian and meat two packages of simple point meat recommended this family was not that especially delicious, but always to Nepal to try some local food, regardless of the family as the taste or the atmosphere is very authentic.

Nepal scenery, cheap prices, have time to stay a little longer, we encountered many foreigners rotted here for several weeks or even months, in the garden Sun breakfast, afternoon you can stroll the old square, in the evening after dinner by candlelight around small shops everywhere, and those who look at price, Nepal JS, to finally fun we all don't want to come back.

Nepal free line Raiders

Nepal Raiders

Before going abroad, and also on Web site search on Nepal's Raiders, also bought about Nepal travel books, but he went onwards, and think you can give a more practical about visas, transportation, accommodation, began piling up some text, and I hope to go after mix.

Otherwise the Raiders in December 2006, please refer to the attention of timeliness.

1. visa:

Nepal Consulate's address:

Caoyanglu 1040, zhongyou Hotel 28/f, building 2

Need information: Passport, ID card copy, 2-inch color photograph

Processing time: week 1-5, 9: 00-11: 30, 1: 30-4: 00 pm

Tel: 021-52661817

Go to visas, always feel that the Consulate should not be so biased, so the old building Office until after Nepal later understand that this is probably the most they can choose the proper place, otherwise they would be sorry to support their domestic people.

With a Chinese Passport Office Nepal visas do not in fact money (other national passport to get around 300RMB).

But if you are in Shanghai Consulate Office, staff will ask you your 60RMB/person handling fee, it is estimated that this is one of the consulates of the sources of income. In addition they will be asked if you want to get a visa on the same day, so have to pay the cost of expedited 300RMB not expedited, General 4 business days to receive a visa, for time is the second week, four in the afternoon.

A strategy that in Hong Kong and La visa is completely free, hearsay, and everyone can try it yourself.

2. go to Berlusconi, traffic lines:

To Kathmandu to land and air.

Land:

From China, Tibet and Nepal border camphor, auto 5-6 hours to arrive Kathmandu.

But to Lhasa Zhangmu to more than two days, but the road is hard, this line is estimated only for Super mix.

Air:

Royal Nepal Airlines have direct flights from Hong Kong in Kathmandu.

Air China has from Lhasa to Kathmandu flights.

Shanghai has direct flight to Kathmandu flights from Nepal Royal aviation RA412 implementation models for Boeing 757, per week, 3, 7, a weekly flight Kathmandu, 6 2 RA411 return.

This flight is Japan Osaka flight Kathmandu, so most of Japan on the airplane, therefore during the peak season ticket some nervous. And General ticket agent point Coldplay Nepal Royal Air ticket. Only some specialized do this circuit of travel ticket, and will be acting on behalf of visa. For those who normally work in a busy people, indeed convenient, to specific contact information you can access the search below.

If your booking, you can directly go to jing'an temple near the Nepal Airlines Shanghai Office, attention Wednesday and Sunday is no one.

Guess why? because they were the two days will go to Pudong airport to do special ticketing work! (I'm in Pudong airport departure and arrival two saw the Office of the responsible of Uncle speculation), ticket prices in low season and high season, I go for the month of November is the peak season, fares are not discounted 5770RMB. Low season probably in more than 4000. There is also a ticket to use cash, I just because there is no cash white ran a trip.

In addition to remind that Nepal Royal aviation flight in the last three rows are smoking, boarding time remember not too later location.

From Shanghai General is 3 p.m. entire take-off, nearly 6 hours of flight time, arrival local for 7 pm or so (Shanghai faster than Kathmandu 2 hour 15 minutes). Back from Canada are normally flying downwind, the flight time of 4 hours and 15 minutes, 23: 30 local time, arrival time, probably the next morning at half past 6.

In addition, domestic travel, even if you have purchased a Royal Nepal Airlines round-trip flights to Kathmandu or at least 24 hours to confirm the ticket, otherwise it may not be able to travel on your booked flight, only to wait three days after the flight.

Nepal Airlines office in Shanghai

Address: wanhangdu road No.1 global world Plaza

Phone: 32140717

3. plug the charger and conversion:

Travel in, Walkman, digital cameras, radios, etc. are indispensable, so give them charging is also a very crucial thing.

Use of Nepal is 230 volts, alternating at 50 cycles per second, power outlets typically have two holes and three holes, European-standard (DIN) convert plugs and two holes of the Jack of the match. So before going abroad to digital Plaza sold parts of the pitch to buy a European-standard conversion head.

In addition, many Chinese tourists place, such as Katmandu and boccara Hotel even with our domestic socket with eyes.

More exaggerated on the charging of things happen when we go to an evening walk, l, we live in a mountain Ghorapani in the hotel, the charge is charged, 1 to 1 USD.

Well in that night camera or there is electricity, so they do not have to use. Otherwise, the scenery, you have to charge you?

4. currency

Nepal's currency is the rupiah RS, we went to 1 USD approximately 71RS, 1 RMB nearly nine RS.

Any place in Nepal, the US dollar is hard, we went all shops (including hiking, mountain small grocery stores) are your dollars. So take some dollars is very necessary, attention should also bring some zero-dollar banknotes. In addition, the exchange rate of the Kathmandu city than the other, so you can estimate the number of their use, in Kathmandu. However remind, the exchange of money denominations dollars when compared to the small denominations USD exchange rate.

In addition, the exchange rate

Also you can talk about, I remember in Kathmandu, Strada all MoneyExchange is 1USD = 69.36RS list price, but I live in the hotel's boss active 1USD = 71RS Offer me, I don't have to go to a higher price.

Nepal's departure tax, per person or $ 25 1695RS.

So I left to immerse the need to keep some cash.

5. credit cards

Nepal's card environment is not very good.

But proposals or with a credit card, a defensive, and secondly in the large shopping before leaving time or can play like magic. However in Kathmandu, especially tourists live Thai Meier (Thamel) District, most of the shops are all major credit cards accepted. But if you want to use credit card, keep in mind when talking about price instructions, otherwise the hotel will have to pay fees, ask you to pay a fee, may eventually make everyone happy. Domestic releases of Visa, Master of international credit cards can be used. Greenback card is recommended.

6. hotel

Nepal there are various grades of hotels, from 10 Yuan to 100 u.s. dollars.

Like Hyatt, Crown Plaza there are semicolons. If you want to live in these types of hotel, advise you with the group, so that the price will be better. This time we get a low-end line, basic accommodation is between 400-800RS Hotel or Guest House. I usually travel used to be a good hotel in advance, before starting the check under Internet, set the Thamel district family called the Greatwall Hotel Hotel (older Hotel Victoria in called Raiders, two years ago to present name, possibly to attract more and more Chinese tourists), call the past, the boss offer 450RS, thought it was OK, just booked. To the boss took us to a room with a TV (12-inch small TV, but there are many satellite platform, including CCTV-9) room, 700RS, thought it was OK, you caught. Back to fancy Mong (Chitwan), l (Pokahra) of the hotel are the boss recommended, since almost the price is acceptable. However Bhakta Boolean (Bhaktapur) hotel slightly more expensive, it is recommended that live there, Sunny Guest House, is the highest in Nepal India Temple side, feel good, 800RS.

If you are a like owner doesn't allow or mental quality excellent, can wait until there and then one Hotel or GuestHouse look over, so get the price should also be better, but you can also choose your favorite room and location.

7. the tourist route

You can walk to bokhara has 31 days of line, plus the Kathmandu Valley, unusual, blue, pi (Buddha Buddhism Moni birthplace), plus profiles of the principal places such as you savor, in Nepal to stay less than 3 months is also too much.

Considering that people in general are not so rich, so below is a list of recommended travel is our actual itinerary and compensate for some of our shortcomings and the lack of amendments:

D1: arrive Kathmandu, Kathmandu, arrival time to stroll in the Thamel district, uncover the tourist souvenirs, preparing for a return to purchase.

D2: Kathmandu (urban sightseeing: burned corpse Temple, the monkey Temple, pagoda, old Royal Palace; confirm tickets), Tan (old palace), live in Kathmandu.

D3: morning off to exotic Mong nature reserve, is the United Nations human natural heritage.

Noon, afternoon stroll in the peculiar Mong Tharu ethnic villages (remember the country to bring some snacks, candy wrappers, huamei, beef jerky for village children), and then look at the River sunset, night Tharu ethnic performances, live strange, our hotel is recommended for Kathmandu hotel, however there is indeed a little trouble making his own, because the bus stop locations away from the town a little distance, the first time to really not hard to find.

D4: peculiar, ride an elephant through the jungle cruise in the morning, close observation of wild animals (rhinoceros horn, Peacock, deer, ...)

In the afternoon the first canoe canoeing on the River, and jungle hiking, live strange Mong

D5: early bird, then leave off to bokhara, afternoon arrival, get off at the first run of the place has foot matters (proposal in the lakeside area lakeside Street looking for a travel agency, Hotel recommended will be more expensive, because finally they then subcontract to travel, but the benefits are convenient, saves time), if you have time, you can tour the Philippine WA Lake (Fewa Lake), same-day live boccara.

D6: get up early, take a bus reaches the starting point of the Naya Pul, begin walking in the mountains of Anna PMG, the time may be long to short (2-31 days), it is recommended that you choose us for 3 days of reverse the small ring road (just to be 4 days), that is, Naya Pul-Gungdruk-Ghorapani-Naya Pul, scenery, and time is not long, places for Mountain Inn Gungdruk.

D7: walking on the second day, the lodging of the Mountain Inn Ghorapani.

D8: hiking on the third day, get up early to board the Sunrise Poon Hill, and then begin the long journey back down the mountain, on the same day, live, l, l.

D9: rest day, by the way, visit local temples of India, white water river and David falls, you can go to film baby Lake canoeing.

Night boccara.

D10: travelling back to Kathmandu, and go to profile-Naga, live-Naga profile.

D11: Naga profile-to see the Sunrise, here you can see the Mount Everest (West known as Mountain Everest) on the day of arrival Kathmandu Valley, one of the three ancient cities of Bhakta Boolean (Bhaktapur), live Bhakta Boolean.

IfDo you live in the old city (such as Sunny Guest House), the town before the need to buy tickets, please remember to buy a ticket with a Chinese passport, can be reduced to from 750RS 50RS, this is probably the only Chinese Nepal offers tickets for attractions, absolutely not to Miss!

D12: Bard posts visit (du bus Plaza, earthenware square, etc.), in the afternoon return to Kathmandu.

D13: shopping, night flying back home.

8. transport

In Nepal, commonly used with rental and bus traffic.

In bokhara and Kathmandu city, taxi is commonly used for transport.

From the airport to downtown General 300RS (if you arrive during the night), from city to Airport General 200RS. Remember to take a taxi to not play table, in accordance with the Raiders in roughly the price on the price. But also in the area do not with those in the attractions of taxi ask prices, generally they waited for half a day, will be a relatively high price, to go a few steps, you may encounter the passenger from the car, he would be even better.

Cities they rely on the coach.

Greenline, Travel and tourism Gloden bus is the Raiders are back to mention specifically for foreign tourists in coach, commutes from Kathmandu and some of the major tourist cities, the service is good but the price is relatively high (as in Kathmandu to l $ to 10-12, 700 kg, but the package 840RS-a lunch), but most of the tourist bus in around 500-550RS, not boards. Nepal's State of the roads is poor, as some years ago in Yunnan, 200 kilometers (about Hangzhou-Shanghai >) way to go in 5-6 hours. So the way usually stop twice, once break (early start is the breakfast), a lunch. If a local coach should be cheaper. But the car all the way to stop people packed a lot of that condition or worse. But it is definitely a must-try to experience, after all, one of the objectives of tourism is to experience the local life. We went from Kathmandu bafatan, Bhakta Boolean and return all take a Local Bus, try doing a back to the locals. Comparison of exaggeration, they can take us 11 personal jinbeiche sêöàïèûon 18 individuals. As for the ticket, your hotel can help you buy travel bus and bus tickets, but pay attention to the owner doesn't allow it. As for the Local Bus, you just need to find bus stops on the line, with leave, to buy tickets. Local Bus of the conductor, absolute is a landscape, a try block.

In bokhara, strange, rent a bike everywhere around is also a good choice.

9. catering

To Nepal, Kathmandu, bokhara and peculiar Wang and other tourist city, world renowned cuisine category are easy to find, Western food, Mexico, Japan, Korea barbecue restaurant and restaurant can be found.

But is not recommended to eat Chinese food, because there is no place for Chinese food than the domestic do better. But to go abroad is supposed to taste a variety of local characteristics.

Nepal local characteristic meals is called Dal Bart's set meal, curry soup with vegetables, beans and rice and pickles, have a place also offers chicken, but the money you want to add.

General is where to eat, the biggest benefit is the pipe full, in addition to chicken, what not enough can be added. In the Thamel district has a feature called The Naplis Kichten hotel, done especially delicious, we someday there ate 3.

Kathmandu is a chain of dessert shop, forget the name, in the new Palace at the entrance of the street there is a company, which bought the dessert made with pure milk, the flavor is very positive.

(Some may think it is too sweet, but seldom eat there is no problem).

As regards drinking water, we have been drinking bottled water is.

Generally 1 liters, from Kathmandu 10RS a bottle, to hiking, mountaineering, is probably a bottle 80RS. Unless you own stomach have absolute confidence that the proposal or do not drink water, even if in some places water watch is very clear, the locals also directly for consumption.

10. shopping

Nepal's prices are relatively low, even in the Thamel district where tourists, prices are also lower than Shanghai, moreover on many General shopping can be discounted.

(In my experience, books, postcards, refrigerator magnets can call discount, buy cashmere scarf can 7.5 discount, buy profile Falk Saber also about 7.5 discount, if you buy more can then more to discount) Nepal's comparison and gas, generally will not be reported for your anger at low price. So you can try the bottom line of the seller. In addition to the above written to scarf, Saber, Nepal of Thangka, tea, handicrafts, paper, wood, etc. are all very worthwhile purchase souvenirs. But at the airport you will encounter a rigorous security check, so it is recommended that you do not attempt to bring any year heritage.

In addition also of Nepal very cheap commodity, so some of the trip must products, such as shower gel, toothpaste, sunscreen, etc. can be purchased at your local supermarket, don't have to go far back from China.

Some truth about Nepal

1, hiking.

This is the most prestigious of Nepal. We chose the 4 days of Poon hill of clockwise. Thought is one of the most amazing, but the first two days, without any scenery along the way are barren, yet not as bleak as shortage of Tibet, but the large availability of grassland dotted with dusty green trees, shortage of very dirty, the guide said, only 6-8-month rainy season for you to see the green valleys, postcard-like hilly countryside. Snow on the second day, occasionally appeared several times, to the West, China is no way to be excited. The rest of the time, climbing stairs, talk to your neighborhood the Park of the same Hill, the only difference is that the endless stairs ...

The third morning sunrise Poon hill is wonderful.

Different positions and different height of the mountains form a up to ten minutes of sunshine mountain sequence, the light changes very rich levels. After the mountain scenery of the road is still available, Ghandruk really is a beautiful village. But I still can't and Sichuan, Yunnan and Tibet. In short, four days of hard work, the only valuable Poon Hill is the Sunrise, the other can only count accessories. Want to pay so high a price to see personal hobby. Moreover, the famous ABC, the first two days of route and we are the same, no view, no drawing out the camera.

A good guide + porters are also important.

We encounter Babu is very good. (Baburamnepali@yahoo.com, 00997-9846029072, 00997-615225904) English pronunciation relatively clear that the Team clearly, there is Division of porters in front of leading the way, they always follow the last guests around, describes the location of the end result is very good, the price is fair, will not be open to tips, or watching you eat, or lend assistance opportunities close to specific visitors. These issues, it was with our counterparts in the other team's tour guide who has happened. We talk with Babu price is per person per day 500RS, third day began to take the initiative to give them up to 600, later also them some tips. Weight-walking is a little, not to mention the knee has been a mountain path, starting from the second day, everyone had their own back camera donated to them. 100RS, to us however is 10 blocks a lot of money, is not a small income, income, age of pain later. In this proposal means could be friends, on potters more humanitarian, the spirit of the dead was cracking rupees, carry forward the complaints air fares and services.

2, the scenery along the way.

Plus, the Chitwan, bokhara, usually everyone is selected, it is said that you can enjoy Kathmandu Valley along the way. In fact, not worth mentioning. Casually in Guizhou, Hunan, Sichuan ... Find a place to walk all over the Valley. Not to mention the Chitwan to bokhara no good cars, known as Tourist Bus of the TATA Group, half-way up the locals eat also stopped for a long time ...

If possible, it is recommended that you try an aircraft, in particular the Chitwan to bokhara.

Time and labor, flight you can still see the snowy mountain on the cloud.

3, drifting.

Trisuli river rafting, 10 month, sitting in a boat on the water temperature is also good, has a little cold. You can only call the cold before and after the Spring Festival, and to have fallen into the water, cold shivering experience. Moreover, no clips shore to drop view. Nepal is the stimulation of drifting, jet stream, type of boat, desperately rowing ... Remains a matter of personal taste.

4, bokhara.

This is heaven. Hiking paradise in the future. Xuefeng hidden in the clouds, ha'afeva Lake like a Lake of Zhejiang and arbitrary. Apart from the 9-11 month high visibility, you can see reflected off the snow mountains and Lake, and the rest of the time is difficult. We experienced a four day, only one morning to see the surrounding hills.

Including the famous fishtail mountain resort, if the weather is not good enough, or you do not see what delights, including location best 16, 17, 18, room.

Spend tens of dollars, the only advantage is that you can enjoy 24-hour continuous power. Cons is the entire villa is hear generator in hard work. In comparison, Lake View Resort price higher than the fish tail, sitting in the yard you can see Lake, quiet beauty, there are dance evenings restaurant. There was a call Kumar (humargrg40@hotmail.com) English, abilities, personality is not bad. He helps you find the car or something may be larger than themselves out on expensive 10 per cent, as is the hotel prices, but the quality is guaranteed, on-time, clean.

In short, Nepal's natural scenery wasn't as good as in the legend.

In addition, in the newly opened lakeside Garden Hotel Garden Restaurant to eat Chinese for dinner, hot pot, boiled fish, fried chicken, etc are all good.

Delicious than orchids.

By the way, plus all of Beijing Hotel (www.nipal-bjfd.com), sauerkraut fish is delicious! whatever room or served in bowls, all very clean.

By contrast Tarzan ...

5, paragliding.

Originally wanted to sit down and study found that the umbrella in the sky really is the gliding along the wind, it not only can you do about pirate ship-action, 360 degree acceleration like airship, also completely over into a roller coaster! I gave up, of course, also certainly someone didn't want to do, read through this section describes the future want to do. The current price is $ 126 30 minutes.

6, mountain flying.

Plus all start 145 dollars at Everest mountain flying. We visit the most wrong flowers. As Chengdu flew over near the snow to see clear, clear shot. But the little plane is very upsetting. Have the time and money, as soon as the formalities at the airport check-in, grab a good seat.

7. other.

Tarzan out turn left, about 10-20 meters, has a relatively largeThe shop of sale scarf (next to be an exchange point), the shopkeeper is a middle-aged man, man is the nephew, a nephew, we see the best shops of the suit. With the old man owner doesn't allow more difficult, with youth in the collaterals owner doesn't allow easier.

According to other users of the recommendation, we have some of the things entrusted to a called Promod (himalayanidol@wlink.com.np), some are looking for.

Comparison, we find the price may be cheaper, but the quality is good or bad depends on luck. For example, on foot of Babu is very good. Another example of scooters, l-Bhaktapur, Promod open price is 12500Rs, we later find that 10000. But the driver too bad heart, uphill sliping, overtaking, don't know Bhaktapur road …. Overall, Promod is a trustworthy person, provided that, remember he is a businessman, and business negotiations.

Nepal, Tibet, travels by foot to Ghorepani Pokhara to Nayapul

On the first day of the Trek to Pokhara to Nayapul ulleri

9.26 is expected to be as early as 7 points out, the results of my mobile phone was not found, the companion of climbing permit forget took halfway back to the actual departure time basic quickly to 9 points, since when it comes to mobile phone, he said that signal problems in Nepal have signal, but basically it is very difficult to get through, transceiving not what problem, so expect to rely on mobile command parade of people is not to have any hope.

From the starting point for hiking in POKHARA to NAYAPUL probably 90 minutes by car, does not include temporary appears for example we catch taxi hit local villagers fled a blockage in the result the villagers try to claim highway.

Out of the way of urban, l can see snow mountains, the scenery is quite good, if you leave early, you can view the number as halfway.

10: 30 to NAYAPUL is a street made up of several shops in the small village

No magnificent attractions to witness your hiking trip, many car lot, you tell the good wizard step on the country road, approximately 1 km away, there is a climbing permit inspection point, the work is done by porters, you just have to enjoy the beautiful scenery of suffice.

After a checkpoint and then walked over to a bridge to the left, clockwise, counter-clockwise to right, now I'll explore two routes choice issue, before starting, I see a lot of information that is most people clockwise, we also, select the view is counterclockwise: first: the first day, you can always see the fishtail peak (my personal comparison high myopia, anyway I am not seeing the whole day, not including the fishtail peak weather factors) second: Nouri Nouri efforts, it is said that the efforts of three days may go down (the base is go away, for a while and don't stay behind, seems the KMT in pursuit of us!), the third: said clockwise on the first day's landscape is always climbing, rather than directly down on the last day (landscape forever is mood). In fact, we encounter went counterclockwise people spent five days, in the light of the above points, our view is: walk clockwise! someone argues how friends views I couldn't hear it, you big point, otherwise be abstained, and how.

Clockwise round the corner the abduction, turned the corner and a check point, bring this to your own climbing permit to examine the whole of the walking process is basically an hour or so a break point, you can rest for a while, or if, like me, one of ice Cola to go through the four days of hiking, I believe I am the ice Cola's tours are considered authoritative, from the foot of 50RS to highest 130RS, Basic does the owner doesn't allow, you are willing to drink or to drink, to help themselves.

Anyway, our leaders have said that such a sentence "has never felt so good to drink Coke." Along the rivers, the need for you to experience yourself slowly, we do not see at first is that I wrote the Raiders, the result is of considerable wear, considerable regret, as long as you have a general pest control spray debits to point, are not affected by the flying objects and leeches class of attacks (I was attacked once again talk behind), short-sleeve shorts should be this season the most reasonable wear. Our original destination for today is because Raiders Tirkhedhunga, said that from this place to ULLERI to continuous number 3800 a huge step, is staggering, but the fact is that we start is already too late, to a Tirkhedhunga is Heures, just stepped out of the point of feeling out, so I decided to continue to scale new heights. Approximately 1 hour 40 minutes after the arrival today of destination ULLERI. admission to rest. Let me elaborate on the first day of the live in several good. ULLERI First: the first days of curiosity, physical strength, effort should be relatively abundant day yesterday in bokhara will rest well, like ours, the sick and are up to the vast majority of people don't ULLERI. Second: Tirkhedhunga is a Valley, what Vista would not see (just the snow mountain), but to ULLERI can see snow. Third, the Tirkhedhunga is tired, you climb to ULLERI is a tired, ULLERI out will continue to climb the steps of 40 minutes, so the second day of rest is not good, not good for the morning climb 3800-+ 40-minute step is absolutely the worst choice below.

Talk about accommodation, ULLERI has just entered the village has two hotels, the blue roof is very beautiful, first, if you estimate to late, certainly no accommodation (has long been occupied by Allied forces), the second room is too small, we just live here, in fact, a little further on, there are a number of accommodation places, you can compare a few and then make a decision.

Even the packages to the proxy, accommodation and meals is up to you to decide where to live will solicit your opinion, is to recipes yourself, a person a copy, free tea and coffee, drinks should be at buyer¡¯s expense. Now tell us to eat, usually is in the side of the small village of eating, the environment is good, similar to a country's cabins, food is nothing more than similar to Italy of fried noodles, fried rice with vegetables there is taste them, eat much you certainly is enough is enough. Night eating what ULLERI, I was a little impression at all, I'm the man, typical of farmers, the onion dip sauce to taste, a Western-style food stuff don't like, even France dinner I can't eat out, eat it too, but the legendary lentil soup every day, we really did not eat, or our family leading his actively point a, the flavor I feel fairly good, huh, roadside will have sold similar to instant noodle noodles, Curry flavour, salt, so terribly to eat before you'd better tell it isn't his little drop point. We're brought point!, eat when some pretty good. This evening in the restaurant met four Beijing's buddies, two men and two women (followed by the characters are handled by man, not specifying the sex life), we chatted for a while, theyTold us yesterday that they let the guide take Ghorepani 50RMB bought a chicken under the kitchen!!!! himself to stew, you hear, you listen to, to go to Nepal's hurry go, then back to estimate you can only expect others in the village to save you, the village of chicken was long been raids. But then again, now the mountains to the meat of chicken meat, chicken, as long as you're willing to spend money is definitely not the belly of mistreatment. Also tonight, the villagers tell us, l orchids restaurant there it is quite delicious, this has become my home after three days ahead of dynamic daughters-in-law. Mountains or cold than here, so sleeping bag is very useful, a bath is a public bathroom, men and women. Try not to put snacks like on the bed, Ant brothers yet ubiquitous. A hot bath, bed, tired one day, a long way tomorrow. (Go to the person best insomnia with sleeping pills, sleep quality physical recovery is important)

The second day on foot---Ghorepani ULLERI

9.27 away, very few people can sleep three Pole on the day, I got up early to see a Sunrise, my first talk about this mountain breakfast, give me an unexpected surprise, similar to Beijing's sugar shehuo, personally think quite delicious, you want to, Ah, qingfeng 包子 sugar shehuo to late is not to your entire Nepal, eggs on three approaches: the first single-sided frying, second, third boiled fried.

Memory seems to be only one egg is spread out in bread, specifically that absolutely is. (This has just come back in three days, how much they want it, you said I this fairly high altitude reaction, Beijing's altitude exceeding 100 m?)

I pack up to go to a direct climb ULLERI 40 minutes flight of steps, and then there is a mountain road, under our view, this is not the description should be left for you to enjoy, on the road today met two other guys, Nanjing greeted me with a few words, a very nice message conveyed from the morning they eat is Chinese dumplings!!! and is an Alice own Pack gave them, you can see, your own package of dumplings, let's analyze the behavior of hidden powerful logistics support.

To have a face, vegetables, meat, steam cookers, stoves, oil, salt, a mood, a manual,. ..... Call this mix of Pharaoh, must be included with his story. Easy and pleasant to 12 noon, pick monogamous means dozens of meters in front of the entrance, today we destined to Ghorepani, AH ~ ~ ~ is not it, so fast, entered the village is two very distinctive House, yard of the North called sweeping tree (harmonics) flowers, so relaxing day, kaolao myself, he has to sell tomatoes, 100RS 1 kg, can our stewed chicken, you cannot do with tomato scrambled eggs.

See this maybe someone will ask, since this is so easy, why are you so hard while only yesterday? if is a two-day walk from white to black, and an afternoon in the blue sky and white clouds of washing laundry, drink tea, a look at the international situation and the natural environment before the dinosaurs, anyway I absolutely prefer the latter, the mountain air is very good, and the sun shines bright enough, enjoy an afternoon at the time of the alien.

Eat right, have a little surprise, baked potato is similar to the outside of the wrapped fried egg white, taste more than delicious French fries, you can try. As for chicken, now the village also is very rich, want to grab you get. In the evening our old demon cooking eggs and tomato comrade, most of it isn't nearly as China, at least with this dish is no problem, if you wish, you can own cooking, Nepal also be very modest in the adjacent learning advice and representation to comrades don't miss this great opportunity. The evening will be a bit cold in the mountains, each Inn is a furnace of health, the noon if you didn't do the laundry, the clothes before they moved to the top of the fire, place very marketable, an early start. Said yesterday that the Cola, said today that said cigarettes Marlboro 95RS cheap, cheap, not smoking won't be able to learn now. I quietly told you, the original mountain told me not to smoke in the porters to my friend, have successfully let me become an alternate smokers, HA, HA, HA.

Today or early tomorrow morning to get up at half past four POON HILL to see the Sunrise

Nepal at a glance (1)--widening-

Nepal at a glance (1)--widening-

Originally wanted to go to Nepal because University classmate L husband is the United Nations, World Bank officials, to live in Nepal for two years, I and N is the running she go, N and L University beds sleep four years, this relationship is not common.

You can always contact the L, but doesn't want to give up the excursions, simply change to India, Nepal also Rao a, so that India five days at noon, we will fly to the Nepal. Because only for three days, accurately described as two days, so it can only be called at a glance.

The Nepal is 3 pm in the afternoon, originally thought to visit the places that don't want to, in Nepal customs and landing check first is 2 hours.

Although the Guide again that we are well prepared for the efficiency of low here or let people thank you don't know those customs officers do, pointing to pointing to, do one of the few minutes you'll have 10. But you can't temper, from the coach station-like small airport to black out days. Local tour guides in the US, a 20-something of little boy, great attitude, in the words of China, he's spoken is: "how?". He's a Chinese in Kathmandu training school for two years, cannot be said to be so unanimously considered passable. He came to give us a brief introduction to Nepal. Land and 14 million eight hundred square kilometres, 64% to 19% for the mountains, the snow. Only 17% of the population of 25 million, in the plain, light has 65 nationalities than our 56 nationalities also many 9, universal language 70 species, it is the official language of Nepal, don't know which language is. Nepal school are learning English, so that you can communicate in English. Let us to have a preliminary understanding of Nepal.

(Kathmandu streets)

Airport, it was dinner time we had in Kathmandu to India after the first piece of Chinese food, but also very authentic Chinese cuisine.

Although the waiter will not everyone speaks, but there is a special kind of emotion that really want to home meals. Had dinner, we went to the NA widened-marching.

Na widened (Nagarkot) is located 32 km east of Kathmandu is a small village, at 2099 meters, is our time in Nepal's highest point.

(Nepal has the world's highest peak and numerous Alpine, but plateau limited. ) Is said here is Kathmandu Valley to watch the spectacular snow-capped mountain panorama and snow mountain sunset sunrise the widest and best angle. Travel agency brings us to this place, they mean it. The guide describes the world in 80 meters above the snow 14, Nepal has 10.

From this moment onwards, we entered the ranks of Kathmandu traffic jam, jam is in Beijing are rare, roads and narrow and torn, also Flash Earth fly, our van was able to do 20 or so, on the roof of the kind of luggage, this is very rare in Beijing, but in Nepal is a good car.

Kathmandu bus is this one, just more, each car in addition to the door with full of people, on the roof are full of people, most of the time can reach 30 to people, it is supporting the head, 64% of the Alpine countries, this is no guarantee of security, the guide said, roll-over or falling things often happen, but no one tube, such conduct must fall within the legitimate. In Beijing, even mountain, 32 kilometres an hour has arrived, but we have a full open 3 hours.

Crescent road, Crescent dark no street lighting, I do not know how long bent, and finally the car stopped at a top, a cliff of a call COUNT YVILLA HATEL Hotel door, this is our accommodation places, is said to be one of the best hotels.

I am somewhat disappointed because we missed the best looking at Snow Mountain sunset time. At this point have moonless, hemp Zaza, in addition to the northern countryside, I have seldom been so many stars.

The mountains of the night is still very cold in entered the room, 9 p.m., I and N a hot bath, a point on the electric heater, just want to listen to drill bed, who to call us to dinner, because places to eat and we live in is not in a floor, N do not want to move, I do not want to eat, just want to go out for a walk.

The passing of the night sky, the stars around the half moon, visible in the distance tanned mountain, located in the hills near three-story building, with light in the room, walk into wood decoration of the restaurant, the table was lit candles, with the Mission of the men had to drink of the Cup-for-Cup on beer, light flash fire in the fireplace, Nepal waiter just for some of us, this environment can be enough to luxury. Only dinner of Chinese food to eat in the belly, do not want to burden future weight loss, therefore, declined the invitation of his friends, to see the sunrise in the morning, or go back to bed.

The guide said, 6: 30 up to see the Sunrise, in his room, you can see.

I have always been there to getting up early, just after 5 o'clock, I was COO of waking up. Thought it was a monkey in the mountains, going out to know are a group of feeding pigeons. The sky begins to dim light, worrying thing is still there, there was fog in the morning, there will not be bound to the Sun from the horizon beyond beauty, but I'm still not willing to see day gradually lit up. Eastern sky appeared chenguang, beauty also arise. I do not know the mountain air, the fresh, space color will be so rich, from light blue to begin to turn yellow, Orange, pink, and blue, cyan, just like in the fairy waving a crayon, the original scribble sky fog is not a bad thing? The Sun finally came out, a small, hard through the mist, the Golden shower head to the world, with hand, heart, enchanted. Packed luggage to eat breakfast, cliffs, small floor bath in the morning light, the post's tank is also full of sunshine. Sit down, facing the mountains, Sunrise breakfast, that feeling is really wonderful.

This should be good to see the snow and visibility can still see the Himalayan peaks, today the fog, it was only in the imagination.

God knowsRoad I have a good mind, often playing tricks on me, traveling is not a rain is foggy, always makes me regret that I was calm. God's grace I had enough. To 9 days, only to Delhi under the rain at night with no impact on travel, and the weather is good, and not fly the mosquito, the look of all, let's leave some regret.

Sumptuous breakfast, our car turbulence in the rugged mountain, a bus on the roof was full, blazing in the winding mountain roads, like inversion acrobatic, well hung, let us praise Nepal drivers skill is really superb.

Mountain trees flourish, it is not surprising that the air is so fresh. The roadside scenery seductive, rows straight Alpine larch, in Golden Sun shot, students are portraits of the painting.

[Floating in Nepal days] of pleasure in bokhara

(Beauty)

March 1-2, 2007 consists in bokhara

Back to Prokara, first thing is to take the train departure ticket, but at the time of the travel agent pledge to the ticket-in-place change gives us, want to change flight have no seats.

Remember the status of the flight when you full, not let us believe in this beautiful mountain countries have come out of the shadow of the civil war, is more and more people around the refocus. However, such messages are also let Lily and my mood was somewhat frustrated, we are also excited to enjoy toying extra 3 days! now you can only stay with some regret, give yourself a chance.

I came back to Blue Heaven dejected, I happened to meet hotel managers ready to sell tickets to us, from Prokara to Kathmandu flights offer each 79 dollars, far more than an outside agent price 14 USD.

This knife too fast, before he describes walking wizards and beifu on expensive 30 per cent. So we in the Agency out of the five seats on the plane, he had also sent his waitress to Agency forcing, thanks finally did not succeed.

We will not be destroyed by such episode because of the mood of limited time, enjoy the finite time boccara.

Ten years ago a bokhara photos, I brought in Nepal, but now we're boccara pending small town at the foot of the before and after a night and morning hours.

The mountain before that night, step on hail-in a Blue heaven hotel, located in the South of the central street of Pokhara, equivalent to 3-star standard facilities, the room's balcony, see Fawa Lake and the fishtail peak, 10 dollars a night.

Then we are very tired, hungry, and heavy rain soaked, see neat place, even the price is not cut to four rooms. At that time be washed on a hot bath, a good meal, then your sleep is the ultimate dream.

Just under a hail of town, the rapid drop in temperature, hardly the way to pedestrians, shops close early.

Only the hotel opposite a fish restaurant is also open. Travel Guide and is not recommended to eat fish because Nepal believed human soul can go down the River reach heaven, so people do not love to eat fish, making fish technology is also very common. But in the Chitwan, we have been recognized with the locals eat fish, the answer is: "We also eat fish, the annual rainy season will catch a lot of fish heads are great. "Get the answer let us quite glad that finally can eat chicken outside eating meat, beef, lamb, no matter how do bite. In the evening we will fish shop menu all practices of fish point, here's the fish from the Lake, the mouthfeel is a bit of Fawa like the grass Lake vinegar fish, meat is very thick, warm chicken and mushroom soup, and our own tea room joined the Whisky, instantly would a normal dinner into a "whole fish feast".

On the morning of 26, the acquisition of equipment for mountaineering, hiking, l as Anna PMG, nature of the base camp brings together various outdoor store, full range, sourcing, and as long as you want, you can buy, although the price is very cheap, but among them fake, but as long as you have a vision, or you can pick to the good stuff, at least we bought ski pants of quality is very good, go hiking in the snow and rain played a great role; if you do not want to buy these usage is not high things, you can also choose to lease certain equipment, such as the alpenstock or mountaineering packages and the like.

In addition, this shop has another advantage is the recycling of used outdoor products, if you do not want to take the big package packet to complete the next journey, this is an economically viable way: Lily is mixed in a bit more time, l Spain childcare, successfully persuaded the storekeeper to wear five days winning at half price charged back.

5 days hiking is finished, return to bokhara.

Our success to celebrate and thank the wizard on foot and take care of our beifu, line 8 people went to the town's most famous restaurant in Nepal and dance. Sure enough, here is the most crowded hiking back to celebrate travelers; here a lot of dishes, surprisingly Switzerland-pot; here's the cocktail is also very interesting, each room has a name of a mountain peak. Of course this restaurant prices are expensive, a meal has spent more than US $ 100, this number can be in Nepal's restaurant in 25 last fried rice; bokhara comfortable Inn live on 2 months; or the equivalent of a heavy luggage beifu carrying away half a month. However goddam I pleased, clear remember that night we are very high, up to get the boat tour FAWA Lake; also walked the whole street and found my way to Chitwan and we agreed to meet again in Germany old man, that day we also play tennis until bar, although we pretend are very bad ...

The next day, and a 6-point half-up, just to look at the morning fog of FAWA Lake.

Wo Wo supplements according to the column's sleep while absent, leaving Lily, Yeti and I am in no-man's walk on the street. Early morning, l air clear; gloomy weather makes this town drew night noise and impetuous; roadside restaurant has been open, the estimated here most travelers are in order to be able to sleep late. We walk to the Terminal, various boat moored quietly on the Lake, only a distant fishing ships in and out of the mist, as if floating from Wonderland.

Sit by the Lake's small garden to eat breakfast, Nepal's national birds have been hovering over us, and also occasionally stop at the desk next to, estimated to be us up in.

Suddenly a ray of sunshine through the heavy clouds, and sky to withdraw a hole, put the fishtail peak dew out, good times indeed let us catch up! Yeti and I excited over a low wall, near the Lake and press the shutter, take this rare sight, but not for a moment the two soldiers came to us, the original wall is camp areaWe had good break sanctuary! also good soldiers were very friendly, but fortunately we still in the camera.

Day 3-pole, can finally have a boat on the Lake, 5 individuals make a straight, also became a wander in circles, blue sky and the snow in a landscape.

Plan from the pier the fishtail mountain resort for lunch, then half an hour later found few influent ship already, original boat cm in the little tea cylinder is used for drainage, HA HA. At the moment we have cleared things up, as a child of "an outlet in the pool, a water inlet at the same time, how long can be filled with water" topic, and someday will come in handy, after all the "stuff" decided to change the ship. We at Lake Island waiting for boatmen, island there is a India temples, local believers are dressed up to many beautiful, natural MM figure, color of Sally had the slightest idea Chuo leapt, became the focus of the lens.

Fishtail mountain (Fishtail Lodge), located in the heart of Fawa Lake, was able to see the bitch of Lakeview and fishtail peak.

Transactions of the Bank have to rely on the boat, thus forming a social isolation of Xanadu, has since completed are Nepal Royal, dignitaries and the rich man's holiday, which also includes the year before the 20-year-old Prince Charles.

Villa in nature delicate and elegant, thoughtful service, serene, I lay in the hammock by the Lake, the mood on trance as this water ripples Wang not calm.

At noon on that day, the huge circular dining table with only we, Manager specifically for the vision of the best locations. When the exquisite cuisine, French window ahead of sunshine on body, mind, but a sorry: I'm really, really don't want to go ...

Afternoon half flight will take us away from Prokara.

Recall the past 7 days, I did everything they want to do something; intention see each piece is foreseen in the landscape, have forgotten who you are, or you forget where it came, I remember it was said: alive to be happy, because you'll die for a long time ...
