TIPS:

Visa:

The Office, in Lhasa RMB175/person, in the morning mail, acquired by 4 p.m., holidays postponed (with Cynthia's tactic of rigid foam, we were able to one day in advance get a visa).

If you have a passport, to put the old passport together with her, to prove that you have not visited before; the old passport lost Nepal, need an official certificate to prove that you have not visited Nepal ...

So, if you have N this new old passports, to avoid trouble, and in Beijing, Shanghai, do visas in advance.

Lhasa – camphor:

Nepal Embassy from Lhasa West station, walk for 20 minutes, get a visa to go just to sit in the bus to the bus station; or if you have money xigaze have no time, or at the Embassy with others at the entrance to the wood of the Charter.

Xigaze to camphor or nyalam bus there every day, season, winter, people belonging to the off-season before departure stop sign; therefore, 8 am, be sure to report back, told to the station you want to go to the wood of the conductor, so open the wood of the bus driver will go out of the station.

Exit:

The exchange of money, of course, is to change the camphor, we were changing exchange rate is 1: 11.6; drivers to help us find the Exchange site and transactions.

Camphor and KODARI friendship bridge is not allowed to take pictures of, more than two States undercover N back pressure bridge, want to stand in the middle of the bridge boundaries on the beat with a foot in both countries, or non-sterile.

KODARI Immigration Office, fill in the entry table is over, but still did not ask us or even mention also didn't mention 200Rbs fee ...

We guess that is because there is a wood of Chinese businessmen and we at the same time, immigration, and the businessman is almost daily to Nepal, we talked a couple of sentences, and Nepal officials may think we are friends again $% @ …% &

KATHMANDU KODARI – there is no direct Shuttle, shuttle to BARABISE only, 100 rupees; and then change trains in BARABISE, 120 rupees one sitting to KATHMANDU.

Sell tickets from the ticket sales guy speak English very well, very convenient; just because he was so eager, ticketing status was too far away, we take him for supporting the

BARABISE to all of the buses will travel through BHAKTALPUR, to stop all after the THAMEL not far away, walk 2 traffic lights go to police THAMEL uncle or drivers for directions, very convenient

About POKARA

THAMEL taxi going to the LOCAL BUS station, hotel boss tells us is about 180, we spent 250.

Out of the THAMEL and then a taxi, generally much cheaper

And all went to bokhara of LOCAL BUS we missed, sitting in a minibus, 300 rupees/person, station there met a master, language English, Chinese and Korean in Nepal was enthusiastic, genius

5 hours or so to bokhara, fork in the road car, a taxi to the Lake District is the local people to help us talk about the price of RS. 125

Lakeside LODGE in KUMARI, Garden Villa, solar water heating, generator, but very, very clean, room 200/night

Nepal women next to the hotel's restaurant taste very good, the price is reasonable, like thick SPINACH MUSHROOM SOUP and India menu VEGETABLE BIRYANI; NAPALI SET always is to try it out, 8 too inside the chili sauce and ginger slices the same spices to free it, huh, huh I tried after feeling, comparable with grace speaks in Lancelot in Siam's maiden "Prescott odd slave (?)"

Because the ruling party has hair, not tourists climb to half the time jumped out to buy a road of money, so party construction costs it outright into collective climbing permit: climbing permits to run twice, one is a new TEAM PERMIT200 rupees per person, one is originally a personal mountaineering, mountain is a bit of checking

Taxi fare to NAYAGAL, 950 + 50 tips (too bad road conditions, we feel a little sorry this car) = 1000 rupees

NAYAGAL village looking for cheaper than bokhara potters also more professional; line price 400Rbs/day

Comparative labor clockwise mountaineering

Accommodation, like the previous station ULLERI HOTEL RIVERSIDE (you can listen to the dry small waterfall murmuring flowing water to sleep) and after a station Ghorepani a GUEST HOUSE (you can symbolically yehua, hotel boss, family and the Tibetan Mastiff, MIXED FRIED RICE and MUSHROOM SOUP is the way most delicious one, play at early morning sunrise in the Himalayas, and no person and you get points for 100 rupees accommodation cheaper than GHOREPANI, however because few people lived, bed there may be bugs, so essential balm essential).
