Nepal travel (2)

November 8,

Knowing your own itinerary, so did not dare to sleep late, leaving early out of bed.

Sitting in a small garden where breakfast, feeling very good. November of Nepal and temperature, the temperature in the afternoon 27 degrees Celsius, the morning was 10 degrees left and right, you need to put on my coat. However the Sun is shining in the body, soft, very comfortable.

After dinner, directly to the hotel attached to the travel agent about Mountain flight, rafting and Chitwan itinerary and price.

Nepal hotel has its own travel agency, could get a free map of Kathmandu, they also agent tickets, tickets and tourist routes of the package tour. In addition Thamel district is the styling of the travel agency.

Travel agency staff Devy extremely "passion" to receive us, tea, maps, compliment (or flatter) our beauty, telling him how pleased to provide our services, type tangyipaodan a received a:-), but when it comes to quote is not so easy to give in.

Mountain Flight ticket price of $ 110, he is only willing to give us a $ 4 discount. Rafting the asking price is 20 dollars, can easily get to 15 dollars. Chitwan 2 nights 3 days tour, after our bargaining power, and finally to our offer is: rafting + Chitwan total 70 dollars. My companion to her friend said to over 90 dollar Mountain Flight ticket. We think drifting + Chitwan 70 dollars are not cheap, it also did not shop around, so they decided not to reply to Devy, noon and then make a decision.

Out of the hotel, we decided to go to du bus Plaza look.

Read what others wrote about, though not far from the Thamel district, decided to go to. But into the Thamel district streets, just a bit confused Southeast Northwest, holding several map ask the local people, probably because a fork is too much, they don't know, can't help it. To save time, decided to take a taxi, but attached to ask a few drivers, wild speculations. I know that not far from the only willing to 80 rupees, they would rather sit in the car in the Sun, also refused to do this deal. Is depressed, a tricycle, over taking the business, I try to ask a sound: "50 rupees to du-Plaza", the driver immediately promised, I have appended a sentence: "2 personal 50 rupee", when the answers are Yes, we're ecstatic with ground vehicles, we'd be interested to experience a such a tricycle.

We take a pedicab is decorated on the handlebar and a bouquet of Roses (but false).

The driver seems to have no young (I don't really see that Nepal's age), but was a very happy person, quickly push down the alley in the Thamel wear to plug away, look we both ride was happy. Alley of road surface, there are a lot of sharp bends, we sat in the car was moved to shake, fun and excitement, laughter and call issued from time to time, with all the cars ringtones soon to du bus Plaza. Destination, but the driver does not want to put us down, first let us and his tricycle photo, then refused to accept our delivery past 50 rupees, said we can be there for one hour, and so we visited then take us riding in his car around the entire Kathmandu, a total of only accept US 100 rupees. I've been a bit strange, is puzzled. I immediately to meanest wondering, do we really gave him a very high price, to the extent that he is so happy? may also not as yeah? tell the truth, his proposal or very attractive, I sat around the tricycle, two talents in Kathmandu 100 rupees! we discuss later, the two decided to reject his kindness, first, we may need more time around du bus Plaza. Second, our trip is too tight, I'm afraid I don't have the time to join this event. (Really, it is recommended to Nepal Tourism people keep some holidays. Like us, have missed many things still insist that the Coachman) we had to say, put this 50 rupees to pay you, in case an hour later we haven't come back, you do not wait any longer.

Du-square feels like an open public space, although it is an important tourist sites, but neither walls or doors.

The ticket office is a small Pavilion, both of us are the rules, the initiative looking to buy a ticket (remember, like 200 rupees), after someone tickets found nothing. Just go to the square of licensing procedures, aboutthe tickets validity can be extended to you left the day Nepal

In Nepal, Pakistan, du is Palace, here is the location of the old palace.

Although called square, is not very extensive, down a bit crowded. A wide range of square scattered antique building, eaves, the corridor carved out on the often extremely fine and delicate pattern. The distance between the buildings can be used in close proximity to describe. Many locals in a lazy sitting in a bench, fences, just idly sunbathing, watching people on the square. A quiet relaxed atmosphere so spread out, trance and cause a kind of feeling back.

Two personal aimlessly wandering on the square, hand while holding a ticket to the tourist map, or confused.

Here's attractions, buildings was not preceded by an English instructions, I also to architecture, religion, history of Nepal is Greek, it is nothing to understand. Can we both want to know about, so I nth came along and asked we need a guide who asked, "how much?" the answer is 600 rupees, I immediately expressed is too expensive for someone asked me how much money my card at Shell, to study a lot before though, you can also really strategy did not pay attention to how much of this guide, to a low price. "100 rupee", I'm back. Each other's reaction is very large, hands, face exaggeration to say: "100 rupees?!!, I was the Guide, not a beggar!!" I said to myself: "is broken, is not being offended, he would think I was insulted him?" to see the smile on his face still, not as is offended, I decided to stick toTo the price. He did not consent, I then turned and went on, anyway not requested is unavailable. Someone tell me if interested, please guide, clinging to me, follow me, the price dropped to 400 rupees, I still don't let go. He is laughing all the way around me, follow me, ask the owner doesn't allow dongwenxi comes with, I walked with a ride without a smile with him, all in all is blended with Hu only to 100 rupees. Anyway, the square shopping mall tour guide much, I do not believe you'd rather stroll don't do the deal. Finally he dropped to 300, with a half-day, feeling a little ripe, I also have a let, 200 rupees. He didn't do it, said 200 rupees only half of the square to speak, I said this is my final price 200 rupees full speaking, if you do not agree to not follow us, he took into account the considerations, and finally try stomped and agreed, we had a cheap look.

I personally think a commentary or very good, we return to the starting point, he began to explain to us-by-block (I have noted, the tricycle husband had left).

I feel he is not professionally trained tour guides, but for us, his explanation of the content is sufficient. The square of the temple, I am one of the few deep impression.

Virgins Temple (Temple of Kumari) there lived a living child goddess, for a short period of time from the second floor window to open a following.

It is said that this year's 12 years old, a child's face, the face of the very heavy makeup, thick ears ramp up provoking. Child goddess was elected, unless due to unexpected bleeding, or to retire only to menstruation. There will be huge after leaving the income guarantee for the future living, but because it is considered to be the reincarnation of the goddess, often no man would dare to marry her. Child goddess is in a very early age was selected, checked only lived in the Temple of the Virgin, only in one of the important festivals was carried out of the temple worship until retiring to accept. Think of the little girl's life, although expensive for people to worship the goddess of fortune and misfortune, but it's hard to say. Like me, would rather vulgar too ordinary some life.

I have contacted the Hindu religion, it seems to be the closest to the secular life, esteem worldly pleasures of.

The square for a deity (not remember the name), usually to rail network is separated from the visitors, each an important holiday, rail network is switched off, the King and the people together in the idol clamber, and before God. Hinduism is very important to destroy God Shiba, many wives. Apart from the houses on the square of his temple, the Temple of his principal, his genitals were deemed to God (spiritual Gan God) worship, our guide said that many couples to spiritual worship before God, Gan pray for children. The square also has a seat is known as the "Temple" of the temple, roof sculpture with various sex action, basically "erotic figure", dedicated to the diagonally opposite the Temple of the monkey God only mock red cloth masked.

As the seat of the old Royal Palace, Plaza on the different styles of architecture also records the history of the struggle for the rights.

New conquerors always like in the old Palace Group and then to build a new one. Here the Palace and temples, also the number of witness some of the old regime of turnover, Kathmandu should also have been torn land. Because I knew nothing about building art, if not a tour guide, I cannot see that this architectural style changes. Our tour guide pointed to a temple and told us that this temple was built, Mongolia King is the style of Mongolia. I just want to ask is what's built in Mongolia King, this guy suddenly out at me: "You know Mongolian? You have beautiful Mongolian eyes." I was dumbfounded and then laughed together with a partner. Yes, my eyes are absolutely, no menggurenzhong, but small. Haha ... ... As for the beautiful not beautiful, you have a personal opinion, I do not think myself. :-)

Dumu Temple (Kasthamandap), Nepal language mean from a tree in the construction of the temple, the original temple has been destroyed, it is rebuilt.

In guided tours, I noticed the phrase of Dumu Temple and very close to Kathmandu pronunciation, ask tour this is some of the links. The guide said, Dumu Temple is completed, the crowd gathered for the centres, emerging markets, cities and towns, Kathmandu city name is derived from Dumu Temple,

Dumu Temple is a guide to our explanation of the last spots, we broke up, paying bills, this guy began pestering then give his 100 rupees, MM is the two of Shanghai's financial controller, the CBC gives 300 rupees, cause my initial owner doesn't allow results down the drain:-).

On my personal experience of the trip, the spots on to 200 rupees is sufficient.

At this point is near noon, we at du BA Festival Fare beside the Plaza restaurant, top-of-view restaurant, steak taste good, there is a handsome twin waitress.

After dinner to go to Nissan Navigation Office confirmed ticket, and then a taxi to go straight to the monkey Temple.

As religious destination monkey temple did what impressed me, neither took note of the Buddha's treasure-solemn, and feel that worships in zhongqing sound somewhat noisy.

Agree with those crowds in the forest, in the heights, stupa on even the Buddha very comfortable cute monkeys. Monkey Temple of the terrain is high, is the good place which overlooks Kathmandu.

From the monkey Temple go back to the Thamel.

Your way into several travel agencies ask rafting + Chitwan offer basic is 70 dollars. Are going to talk to a few marginally Devy further cut down on set in US dollars, suddenly remembered a few online contact before the CityGuide trip one day earlier than we, and they left Canada today went rafting and Chitwan, then send SMS to ask what is their price, and soon received a reply, but still only $ 55. I asked is the name of a travel agency, location of the phone and about, what is the Natural Land Expedition ... I called, butBecause the telephone number has risen, so couldn't get through. It is also not much Thamel, our two in order to save this more than ten dollars, according to the Cityguide provides the approximate location of the Land to Natural carpet search. I think the woman inside a sense of direction is not bad, but Shanghai MM is sent away, we in the Thamel winding streets and lanes but only for a small half-day, Shanghai MM can take the map quickly locate and find our destination. Even so, we put the Thamel sieve it three times, with a focus on lots even reached 5 times. Pulls out what Mother Land, Budha Land ... All kinds of Land, just can't seem to find the Natural Land, legs are going straight. Is it a hundred degrees Hsieh, remains at the end of the road do. Our two final decision not to toss their 80 Yuan, we have tried. End with set price Devy is 106 USD per person, US $ 65 Flight Moutain rafting + Chitwan 2 nights 3 days.

Tonight is the last program to prestigious Helena's restaurant for dinner.

Has 9 points more exhausted, tired, åœ — äº¬æ — ¶é — ' has more than 11 points, on my biological clock always extremely punctual person is already no appetite. I just ordered a fruit salad and a glass of cocktail. Shanghai MM to a steak, although she is raw, but it was still too old, "she said. Checkout the waiter if we left, he asked where no, our food and tenderness to tell him that the food is good, but we are not too hungry. Indeed, to our State, does not fit to judge the quality of a restaurant. Helena's environment is very good.
