Nepal essay (8): Shah dynasty destruction of enlightenment

The essays of Nepal:

Shah dynasty destruction of enlightenment

In June 2001, the morning of the first day, I like the usual turn on the TV while eating breakfast while watching the morning news, a message from Nepal, I wondered: evening of Kathmandu city Narayan Lichti Palace (the Narayanhity Royal Palace) has undergone a big case, than the Lande la King (King Birendra) family and numerous members of the Royal family were shot and killed.

(King Birendra family)

Next events in Nepal is facing, the military was initially announced: the late Queen Aishwarya (Queen Aishwarya) and Crown Prince Dipendra (Crown Prince Dipendra) in select Princess issues appeared disputes, Crown Prince rage shot a hole in the family, and then commit suicide, but was rushed to hospital where a doctor Prince by Wang Shu-Gyanendra (Prince Gyanendra) served as Regent, Agent King.

Evening, all the bodies of members of the Royal family were killed without forensic autopsy, is immediately sent to Kathmandu suburb paspa mention Temple (Pashupatinath Temple) cremation, did not hold any State funeral ceremony.

Subsequently, the Regency King Gyanendra's issued a statement claiming that King Gyanendra than Lande and seven other members of the Royal family were killed because of the firearms accidents caused by the fire.

He said: "we received news that they are the result of automatic weapons fire accidents and injuries, and after his death in hospital. "There's an uproar, virtually all newspapers and periodicals are condemning his arguments are absurd and illogical. People being took to the streets in protest, surrounded by the Royal Palace and the Prime Minister, asked the Government to search for the truth, the Interior Ministry announced in Kathmandu and the nearby Le Lalitpur and Bhaktapur implementation of martial law, time and a half from 3 p.m. to 5: 00 in the morning the next day, the military police ordered to conflict with martial law, mob shoot to resist arrest.

According to press reports, on the evening of the incident India Gyanendra Prince is not paid in accordance with established practice at the Royal dinner every Friday, but accidentally to the southern city of Nepal Pokhara self-cultivation, Gyanendra son Parras Prince (Prince Paras) in the event of the shooting of a few minutes before you happen to leave the Ballroom, Lande la family was killed, and commit all Gyanendra's wife is only slightly affected by a point fingers, this is a coincidence? otherwise reports reveal that the Crown Prince Dipendra was rushed to hospital, witnesses saw the Prince was shot in the back, a suicide victim how might hit your back? "and, on the evening of the incident was found in Kathmandu airport was closed, the Royal Palace and outside telephone contact is also completely severed.

In the capital, Kathmandu, the vast majority of people think that the Prince was not the real murderer, he is innocent, the media generally suspected Prince Gyanendra and son Parras is the mastermind of this event.

(King Gyanendra Coronation)

Two days after the official announcement Crown Prince Dipendra dead death by Regent Gyanendra successor King.

4 June 2001, in the outside world a question and public outcry, Gyanendra in Kathmandu's old Royal Palace (du bus Plaza) held a Grand coronation ceremony that officially reached the top of the throne. The new King of the elephants from the old Royal Palace ride back to Narayan Lichti Palace (the Narayanhity Royal Palace), a large number of military readiness, no applause for the people. The Royal Palace, the outbreak of mass protests, angry crowd tried to burst into the Royal Coronation have blocked the protesters by police shot dead.

(Gyanendra ride like walking through deserted streets)

Royal Diexue case happened in Nepal outbreak of social transformation of critical moment, Nepal is the world's few most poor countries, per capita income of only less than US $ 210.

Into the ' 90s, Nepal economic development has been unsatisfactory, gross national product (GNP) of stagnancy and some year falling instead of rising, agriculture more worrying. In May 1999, the Congress Party wins election in Nepal to Bata Rai as Prime Minister of the new Council has developed a series of overcoming poverty development economic policies and measures, but due to the domestic political instability, the parties fought had pulled out, little effect. Together with Nepal in corruption at all levels of Government, the incumbent Prime Minister Koirala was also involved in the investigation of corruption scandals facing together, but also continuously in the territory of violence.

Than Lande la King (King Birendra) 1945-December 28, born in Kathmandu, India accept 8 years basic education, 1959 to 1964, in the United Kingdom after college study abroad, Eaton had to attend a short course of Tokyo, to Harvard University to study for one year, of political theory, is Nepal's first formal education of the monarchy.

In the late 1980s, the movement for democracy in China and Eastern Europe, under the influence of the democratic movement, Nepal democratic movements, the outbreak of a large-scale movement of people, "and there take to the streets to demand the end of the dictatorship of the King, elected directly by the people, the Parliament and Government in Nepal Congress Party, Communist party alliances, intermediate and leftist political party leadership under the pressure of mass demonstrations, King Gyanendra than Lande wishes, in 1990, promulgated a new Constitution, the British monarchy, the devolution of authority to multi-party Parliament, thus winning the people's affection.

King Gyanendra than Lande on national decentralization still has a considerable impact, according to the new Constitution, when Congress the party close situation, he has the right to appoint the Prime Minister, the Government may be inferior to his support.

The new Constitution of the Decade, the ruling and opposition parties quarrelled, his ruling Congress Party and the opposition between the Communist Party of the mediator role, has always adhered to its part, maintains just established democracies, not ultra vires in politics, but spends most of his spare time for painting and horse riding.

Since 1996, the Communist Party of Nepal political views would be incompatible with the

League of internal divisions, one of the radical Department of Marxism-Leninism (Maoist) launched the "people's war", called on people to rise up against the landlord, the eradication of corruption, the status of many dissatisfied with poor rural youth champion, at first only a few hundred members, the rapid development of large, become a team with tens of thousands of guerrillas of the powerful military force, several years of civil war caused heavy casualties. Council's continuing instability, Royal forces began to rise within the tougher than Lande King Gyanendra faced pressure from Royal inside, but inside the Royal power of reclaim, King always refused.

1987: April 14, Prince Dipendra has over 15 years of age, was the Emperor declared a throne, 1990 to January 3, Crown Prince Dipendra has just inherited the adult will section of my father.

It is in this year, Nepal broke out massive movement of the "people", the King was forced to pull than Lande agreed to implement the constitutional multi-party parliamentary system, the King's power is cut, "people's movement" led to the situation in Nepal political unrest, Crown Prince Dipendra sideway for the Royal family are unwilling to believe that this is the fault of democratic politics, urges the King was restored monarchy, but suffered a father's veto.

Queen Aishwarya contrast Lande King Gyanendra has done is extremely dissatisfied with aishwarya from powerful Rana family (the family had control of Nepal's political arena for over 100 years, and the Royal family of the Shah expelled to India refuge), and King Gyanendra than Lande indecision sexy exactly the opposite, Aishwarya Queen style a previous intervention, and like the appointments are to receive the Queen's permission, is actually a Shah dynasty real rulers, sources said the two sides have been confirmed, the King and the Queen's guards bodyguards had happened in the conflict.

King Gyanendra than Lande two brother Gyanendra Prince, is a bit ambitious, attached to the old autocracy, ready to overthrow the current constitutional system.

November 1950, Nepal's political arena erupted, long dominated the Prime Minister post coup la family, off the then King di Maghreb where (King Tribhuvan), Prince Mahendra (Crown Prince Mahendra) and still pull than Lande (Prince Birendra), introducing the second still, only three years old little Prince Gyanendra (Prince Gyanendra) is King, not only for its held formal coronation ceremony, but also in the name of the new currency, and as a small King – 30 million rupees King budget. Unfortunately, the little King only had less than three months to step down, Rana family in India Government pressure to hand over power, apart from the King to return again where co-creation. The news means Palace tragedy in previous months, routine in the Royal family gatherings, Gyanendra Prince and King Gyanendra than Lande around recover Royal powers both the outbreak of the quarrel, in complete disagreement.

Gyanendra Prince son Parras is a member of the Royal family in a notorious diehards, conduct than cousin Crown Prince Dipendra more being spurned, he not only many drunken driving, and several police officers to stop checking for a fight, including direct drive impact police, as well as a pistol shot directly to the police.

In August 2000, Parras drunk directly killed Nepal's most famous singers Playa million-gulonic (Praveen Gurung), resulting in tens of thousands of young people surrounded the Palace, punish the perpetrators Parras, under pressure, the Government established a police investigation panel, but no below, finally a Nepal soldiers stand up and admit that he is a murderer. Parras insisted on the abolition of constitutional monarchy, the King appointed directly responsible for the Royal family, return to the previous King dictatorship regimes.

As most people expected, King Gyanendra took office at the beginning and began to look for every opportunity to restoration of the monarchy.

In July 2001, the Prime Minister Koirala because of suspected corruption scandals, coupled with the Royal family shooting, in opposition protests initiated under pressure to resign from the same from Congress leader deupa (Deuba) successor to the Prime Minister's Office. In May 2002, Gyanendra actively support deupa disbanded in 1999, elected by the Congress, but five months later to lead government negative as an excuse for ousted deupa duties of the Prime Minister, the first exercise of authority in the hands of the King, but was later forced to various pressure, had again appointed a multiparty negotiation of Cabinet.

(The President a cordial meeting with King Gyanendra)

King Gyanendra has constantly being India, the United States strongly criticized, in order to counteract the external pressure, his actively developing relations with China, in July 2002, Gyanendra visit to Beijing by President Jiang Zemin, Vice President Hu Jintao for the warm welcome, was affectionately known as "old friends" of the people of China, China's leaders, said: the Chinese people strongly support the Government of the Kingdom of Nepal, against outside interference, to collect national people go with the "Nepal characteristics", the Chinese Government was supported by King Gyanendra of few countries to one of the Government.

From 2002 to 2005, Gyanendra has to appoint, dismiss and three Prime Minister.

Finally, deupa Prime Minister was sentenced to two years in prison.

This time, Gyanendra completely recover the democratically elected Government of all powers, dismantling of the Government and Parliament, the appointment of one own a direct control of the Cabinet, he claims that "a multi-party parliamentary democracy" does not meet the conditions in Nepal, deupa weak Government, neither coordination arrangements for parliamentary elections, the opposition is not firmly suppressed anti-government guerrillas separatist rebellion in the grams of difficulties, tough, he must be obligatory to shoulder the collar

Importing countries to restore peace and order, and calls upon all the people most closely United to him, led by the Crown, resolutely fight against all the reactionary forces of secession. He said: I believe in the new Kingdom, under the leadership of the Government's firm for a period of three years will be able to recover in Nepal "peace and effective democracy." Subsequently, Gyanendra Kingdom Government promulgated a series of decrees, under the guise of a threat to social stability and unity, to limit citizens published criticism of Government and leaders expression of powers to require publication must first go through the Government review, including criticism of government policies, calls for multi-party parliamentary democracy, the Government and official corruption, abuse of power, etc, all for the crime of sedition, subversion, the Government arrested bring riot period shall have the right to residence, arrest, detention of any harm to society. Gyanendra pointed out that, when the conflict between democracy and development, it is necessary to restore peace in one step.

In April 2006, the parties together in Kathmandu strike against dictatorship, Gyanendra Government issued curfew order to bullets and tear gas return demonstrators.

In India and the United States under the pressure of the sanctions, April 21, Gyanendra was forced to compromise, announced the plan to the Government the power to pick out by the parties of the Cabinet, the parties, and no longer unanimously rejected the proposal, the King called for the establishment of the constituent National Assembly, by a legislature decided the King in the future status of the country. 24 April, King published national television, announced that he had previously been restored the abolition of the elected Parliament.

2006 June 10, Congress adopted a resolution on denial of the King most powers, including the power to veto Act, and all executive powers to the Parliament elected Prime Minister, the King became a nominal head of State.

In March 2007, originally supported monarchy of Prime Minister Koirala, publicly declared Gyanendra should step down. August 23, transitional Government declared Gyanendra inheritance than Lande la King of all the property, including Narayan Lichti Palace (the Narayanhity Royal Palace) nationalization. Gyanendra met with Japan newspaper reporters to refute that: "this decision does not represent the mainstream public opinion, this is not democracy," he believes the State law and order is deteriorating, and questioned the transitional government management capacity.

(Has become utterly isolated of Gyanendra)

Subsequently, King Gyanendra to Kathmandu suburb paspa mention that temple (Pashupatinath Temple), the Hindu God Shiva Festival celebrations, escort convoys were the people throwing stones along the way.

When Gyanendra entered the temple, there are a large number of people protest against the Government of the Kingdom and insulting the King. When he came out from the East end of prayer is ready to ride the storm rocks again. In order to protect the safety of Gyanendra, a large number of military police to guard, because police long blockade Temple entrance, so many in the temples, queued waiting to enter the temple worship of believers also lose patience, joined the protest.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
