旅行回来一周了,印度的高温让我感觉格外疲惫,即使现在每天的天气预报都说国内如何如何的高温,在我感觉,也是很凉快了,重要的是随处都感受到空调。空调在印度可真的是奢侈品啊~ 印度的攻略网上已经有很多了,比萨就不再详细写了,只把旅行一路的见闻与感受写出来,希望大家能更多的了解印度,这个神奇的国度~ 除了机票是提前预订的,火车票是在印度现买的,旅馆是走到哪里在哪里找,这些都是没有提前预订的。比萨也没有带任何的攻略,没有LP,没有地图。 去印度之前,很多人和我说不要喝当地的水,要买瓶装水,不要吃路边摊。但是我都没做到,我和印度人一样去水管接水喝,吃路边摊,也没有拉肚子,也没有发烧感冒,只是热的起了痱子。也印证了我强大的小强精神,身体好的hold不住啊~ 这次的印度旅行,我最要感谢的是随遇而安,整个印度之行,给了我很大的帮助。在没有地图,没有LP的旅途中,全靠随遇而安的后方支持了。还有旅行途中碰到的躺着也中枪,padman,广州女生小黄,mettar,路人菜菜菜,七七。。。他们都给了我很多帮助。 我也很感谢印度人民,有提醒我注意坏人的,在我火车没有铺位的时候分给我一个床的,给我免费升AC车厢的,免费吃住的金庙~~印度的行程:金奈——新德里——阿格拉——新德里——阿姆利泽——斋普尔——乌代浦尔——斋普尔——瓦拉纳西——加尔各答马来西亚行程:吉隆坡——槟城——兰卡威——槟城——吉隆坡91楼 新德里 https//bbs.8264.com/forum-redire ...

9-pid-20688443.html机票:这次旅行是两个国家,印度和马来西亚。去年10月亚航大促的时候买的廉价机票。深圳——吉隆坡,吉隆坡往返印度,吉隆坡往返槟城,吉隆坡——天津,一共6飞,合成人民币是2200元。后来吉隆坡取消了天津航线,免费改到了吉隆坡——北京。证:印度的证是在淘宝上找的代办,680元。虽然代办费用比实际证费用多出100多,但是我不用去北京,比请假再往返北京,费用要省,所以选择代办。当时就提供了工作证明,和1万的资金证明(6个月)还有护照,其他的都是由代办准备了。十几天就下来了。马来西亚我没有证,去印度之前在LCCT只呆了一个晚上,过境,回来的时候,又在马来西亚呆了5天,不到120小时,所以也是过境。所以马来西亚的证费用省下了。火车:在印度我全程选的都是SL,没有空调,但是印度火车的门、窗都是敞开的,而我选的所有火车都是夜车,所以火车开起来的时候,还是很凉快的。而且SL的票价要比AC3便宜太多了,这也是选择SL的原因。轮船:买机票的时候,由于功课没有做好,买的是吉隆坡往返槟城的,其实应该买吉隆坡——槟城,兰卡威——吉隆坡。所以槟城到兰卡威买的往返船票。公交:印度大城市也是有很多公交的,但是不报站,不过天气太热,我大部分还是选择坐TUTU的。 买机票的时候考虑买深圳到吉隆坡,是想可以去香港玩玩,但是真到出发,才发现根本没那么多时间。但是可恶的深圳机场到底还是让我去了香港。 我到深圳市坐火车过去的,是住的沙发客,住在南山区,离地铁很近。我也是第一次去深圳的宝安机场,原以为飞国际的航站楼是B楼,结果发现不是,找来找去在最偏远的地方,找到了一个二层小楼,这时候离飞机起飞还剩40分钟。亚航是提前45分钟的,就这5分钟只差,让我对宝安机场及人员,失望透顶。 我进去的时候,那边的工作人员,在那里玩手机,我和他讲,我迟到了,因为航站楼很难找。那几个人连眼皮都没抬一下,说“飞机都已经飞走了,你自己的原因有什么办法,再买一张票好了”。我和他们讲,让他们帮忙想想办法,看看能不能进去,他们直接说,“大家都很忙啊,快中午了,都下班吃饭去了,哪里还有人啊,没人给人换登机牌,安检了” 我当时心里那个气啊,说的容易,你的钱是挣得,我的钱是大风刮来的吗。是我迟到了,但用不着这样吧,什么下班吃饭,飞机飞走了,从来只听过飞机晚点,没听过飞机提前起飞的。还有40分钟,这时飞机连舱门还没开呢,飞个屁啊~ 为了不耽误之后的行程,我买了一张香港——吉隆坡的机票,(亚航的廉价机票,改费用比重新买一张还要贵,当时最便宜的就是从香港飞吉隆坡了)。从宝安机场有直接到香港机场的大巴,过关后换成小车,直接送到机场。PS:如果有别国证,用护照可直接过关,不需要港澳通行证。香港机场LCCT去印度金奈LCCT要穿越机场,自己走上飞机~飞机上看金奈金奈机场在金奈机场换了20美金,机场汇率太低了,而且还要手续费,20美金才换了950卢比,很让人郁闷。不过我在印度,都没换到较高的汇率,可能我比较衰吧。在加尔各答听路人菜菜菜说,她最高的时候100美金换了5800卢比,5555~~我最高就换到5500卢比,损失大了!在出机场的门口,可以看见一个简易地图,上面写着如何到地铁站,上面写的是地铁,不过就是在上面跑的,也没看见是在地下跑。一出机场,我就有一种明星走红地毯的感觉,那叫万众瞩目啊,印度人看你是外国人,都不措眼珠子的看你。我兜兜转转问了好几个人,才确定那个地铁站的方向,因为我也不知道是出了机场就左拐,还是到马路左拐。不过走着走着就看到火车了。车票6卢比,到埃各莫尔站。出了埃各莫尔车站,在街的对面有很多旅馆,但是金奈的旅馆相比北印是比较贵的,所以我走了2个小时都没有找到便宜又干净旅馆,总之和想象中的有差距。这个时候已经是印度的中午了,也就是国内的下午,印度和中国有2个半小时的时差。背着大包的我又累又饿,所以决定还是先吃饭再做别的打算。打了一辆TUTU到金奈火车站,因为我要买金奈——德里的火车票。TUTU一定要和司机讲价啊,他跟我说120卢比,我划价到60卢比。后来到北印,才发现60卢比很贵了~这是我在印度吃的第一顿饭,Biryani。饭下面是一个鸡腿和鸡蛋,另外点了一杯chai,一共是85卢比。合人民币10块钱吧。(人民币和卢比,是18点多)金奈火车站是有外国人售票办公室的,在售票厅的二楼。我去的时候刚开始没注意挂着的牌子,然后问那边的保安,他们告诉我在三楼,我严重怀疑他们根本听不懂英语,不懂装懂。在三楼找了一圈没找到。到二楼,抬头就看到了提示牌,推门直接走进办公室,里面的工作人员,向日葵视频色板APP官网态度很好。问我要去哪里,什么时候的车,坐哪种车厢。一开始我想着,从金奈到德里,33个小时,印度又这么热,还是买AC3吧,结果只剩WL了,只有AC2,票价2280卢比,感觉太贵了。于是坚持买了SL,那个女的一直说,SL不适合我,太热了,但是我还是坚持要做SL,我告诉她,AC2对我来说,太贵了~事实证明,SL我还是能忍受的,没有想象中那么恐怖。比我在国内坐那种没有空调的普快凉快多了!买完车票,我决定去Mahabalipuram,离金奈市区60公里,有公交588,588B,588C通往那里。票价是85卢比,不过随遇而安和我说,他去的时候是70卢比,可能是没有空调的缘故吧。找公交588B可费劲了,我就围着车站走啊走啊的,终于在快要崩溃的时候找到了一个大的公交车站,也终于有一个人懂英文,直接把我带到了588B车的前面。超感激那个小男生。金奈火车站附近的交警,在罚钱,呵呵~路上看见有人在游行演讲,估计是拥护哪个政党吧。到玛玛拉普兰下车不要再附近找旅馆,往海边的方向走,快走到海边的时候,有很多GUEST HOUSE,我之前也没有看LP,随便找了一家看上去很新的住了进去。墙壁院子都是新粉刷的。我要了一个离露台近的房间,300卢比。不过我在印度第一次被骗,也是在这家。我给店主500卢比,他没有找给我,说是要开摩托带我逛景点。我想着天气热,200卢比也不多(我还在用卢比换人民币),于是就答应了。他也确实带我逛了景点,我进去,他就在景区门口等着。后来他又说附近有个鳄鱼公园很好玩,结果开到半路,他说他的摩托没有油了,需要加油,要300卢比。我本来是不想给的,但是这路上这么荒凉,他要给我扔路上,我都不知道怎么回去,就在加油站给了300卢比。后来到了北印,才知道500卢比是个什么概念,懊悔死我了,其实我当时强硬的不给他钱加油,也不会怎么样的,谁让咱第一次来印度呢~大家以后去印度,一定要提高警惕,印度商人的骗人伎俩~我就住在这家清晨房间我在印度除KEC吃过的最贵的一顿饭,一盘面条200卢比,刚到印度不了解物价~清晨的海边玛玛拉普兰姆面对孟加拉湾,夜晚这里凉风习习,完全感觉不到白天的烈日炎炎。我躺在露台的吊床上睡着了。我在印度唯有这一次睡在外面被蚊子咬了,之后发现印度很神奇的没有蚊子!会不会都给热死了?这里有很多世界文化遗产的遗址,票价是250卢比,可以看两个。印度人只需要10卢比就可以参观了~海岸神庙Shore Temple刚到金奈很不习惯印度的灰尘吹到脸上的感觉,第一时间选择纱巾,不过后来习惯了,没再带过纱巾~比萨自己一个人走印度,没人给拍照,印度人的拍照水平实在很难恭维,还好带了一个自拍杆旁遮达拉Pancha Rathas这个是那个旅店的小老板带我到的一个景点,免费的,所以我也不知道这个景点的名字,就是一个巨大的岩石~不知道是不是传说中的变色龙,在树上经常看到~可爱的印度小孩,无论男孩女孩腰上都会有个腰链,在火车上遇到过一个,材质就像那种钢丝锁~印度人超喜欢金光闪闪的东西,所以无论男女都喜欢佩戴首饰~我从金奈到德里的火车是晚上10点多了,所以我5点多退房。印度南部的旅馆大部分是24小时的,不用中午12点退房。按照我的估计6点坐大巴回金奈坐火车时来的及的,不过回金奈时坐的588C,而且又是金奈的下半高峰,让我小紧张了一把~从玛玛拉普兰姆——金奈有588、588B、588C,我来的时候是在火车站附近乘的588B,所以回去的时候我理所当然的认为588C也应该是到火车站附近,结果售票员告诉我588C并不到火车站,但是我可以到金奈市区换车,他到时会叫我。当时我以为他说的是公交,所以下车就一直在找公交车站,后来问人才知道原来是他们的城铁,就是在上面跑的地铁,而地铁站也是在一个大楼里面。这个地铁站真的很让我长见识,进去看就像一个没有完工的超市,空旷,只有柱子。随着人流找到了售票窗口,问他们要去火车站,在哪一站下。结果卖票的都不太懂英文,这是过来一个警察,他的英文不错,就在纸上给我画了一个地铁的路线图,写上了每一个站的名字,告诉我在parkdown这站下车,让我数着站,因为地铁不报站。我感叹我遇到了好民警!站台是在三楼,下班高峰,印度男人真的是多啊。我就在看不到头的男人群中,寻找印度女人。终于让我发现了小部分印度女人,兴奋,有一种找到组织的兴奋!谁会想一个人和几十号男人挤在一个车厢。印度人的味道,你懂的~即使是女士车厢,也是挤不动。十几节车厢,就这么一节坐女人,可想而知有多挤了,而且是没有车门的,车速也不慢,我可真是不敢靠外站,怕给挤下去,赶紧跑到车厢最中间,才会感觉有安全感。我发现不但数学学的不好,记忆力也不好。没几站,我就不记得数到第几站了,然后赶紧问周围的女生。因为公交路上堵车,再加上找地铁站,此时已经9点半了,我很担心我下了车,是不是还有很远的路才能到火车站。而且我是第一次坐印度火车,真怕找不到车,深圳机场给我的阴影太大了~还好有个女生,英语发音超级准,她跟我说,到站会叫我的。等到下车的时候,又有一个女生主动说,她要路过火车站,让我跟着她走,不用搭任何的车,出了地铁就能看见火车站,她可以直接把我送到火车站。而她确实把我送到了火车站的大厅,再次感叹,运气好,碰到好人了!女士车厢,手机在晃动的车厢里拍的,有些抖,我实在腾不出手去拿相机~当火车站的时候10点左右吧,然后就在液晶屏幕上找我的车次,但是并没有显示在哪个站台。然后就拿着车票问身旁的一个男生,我那趟车在哪个站台。他告诉我要看液晶屏,他也正目不转睛的盯着屏幕看,我就看见他的汗就顺着脸流啊流的,胳膊也在流汗,我才发现我自己也是这样,一点不夸张的说长这么大都没出过这么多的汗。过了一会儿,哥们儿的车可能是进站了,就和我说,现在你的车还没来,不知道哪个站台,你要站在这里不要动,看着屏幕,那上面会有显示。我点点头,心说,还不让动,等他走了,我还是四处转转,因为有些饿了。买了一杯牛奶,因为实在是奶香四溢,才10卢比,买了一个油炸的不知道什么东西沾酱吃。人饿的时候,是不会管吃的东西叫什么的。给我的感觉就是放了好几天的干饼,划嗓子,不喝水是咽不下去的!终于我的车次在屏幕上显示了,就往站台走,这个时候还不知道看站台的小液晶屏,上面有车厢号,可以走到相应的车厢号那里等车。我一路问的走到了S3车厢的位置,车来的时候也正好停在这里。当我放下背包的时候,整件T恤已经全湿了,贴在身上都变透明了,哈哈~我这一路只有一次是中铺,还被调到了AC,整个行程全部是上铺。这也是我买车票是特别要求的,在填表的时候都会写上UB。原因很简单,第一安全,可以把行李放到上铺,时刻看着行李,我没买链锁,太沉。第二,上车就可以躺着,中铺平常事放下来的,大家都坐在下铺,所以中铺和下铺不可以随意躺着。侧铺下铺窗子一直开着,我可不想嘴被吹歪了,侧上铺过道的电扇吹不到,很闷~所以对于我最理想的就是上铺。上车简单洗脸就睡了,正好有三个电扇冲着我吹,晚上还是蛮舒服的~当然是对我而言,怕热,怕人多的还是不要尝试。 车厢 车厢印度的火车可以充电,AC车厢很多,SL就再车厢的尽头,这张是手机充电的时候拍的。车晃,手机拍的也不清楚~早上是被饿醒的,吃了一个盒饭Biryani,35卢比,但是辣的很奇怪,没吃完。又买了一个面包三明治,这才吃饱。可能是天气太热的缘故,吃完就觉得困,又接着睡,直到把我热醒。正好是中午,外面吹进来的都是热风,我在上铺感觉都像在锅里,衣服全都贴在身上。因为印度女人不能露腿的,所以一直都是穿长裤。从包里找出短裤、吊带换上,我才不管什么不能露胳膊露腿的呢。从这天起,我就开始每天都喝一瓶藿香正气水。在印度期间没感冒,没拉肚子,没中暑,只长了痱子,也算奇迹了。换完衣服上铺是不能去了,太热,然后一群90后的印度小兵就坐着和我聊天,要求我给他们拍照,还要和我合照,呵呵。还有印度的大叔也要与我照相,总之,在太阳没下山之前,我又困了,继续爬上去睡觉。([]

第一章 未知9月24日 《罗摩桥》,郑宸:他们觉得旅行就一定要有目的,譬如到印度就要朝圣,到西藏就让心灵得以净化,只要旅行就要发现自我。其实真想要发现自我,坐在自家马桶上也一样可以,只是说出去不好听。 承认,自己就一直这样装逼,这次还是不例外,就有那么一点恶俗,年纪大了,也不想改了。 还是有人会问:为什么又出发?实在找不到一个更好的途径认识各种人,并且还有一点共同爱好,哪怕是假装的------喜欢出去的必然很臭屁,爱炫耀,不错,说的是自己。 生活中太多平行线,每天都与很多人擦肩而过,仿佛都不曾来过,有意思吗?人都是一条线段,相交之处才有精彩。好吧,折弯自己去撞见别人的直线。 和所有旅行社拼团一样,在彼此还没有弄清楚对方的名字的时候,已经开始一段未知的旅程。你也许觉得喜新厌旧,不错,这次就是要和陌生人上路。不走寻常路,只爱陌生人。 出发前好歹搞个见面会吧,不然一起出门多尴尬啊,总不至于啊哦唉的叫唤吧,不然白天都变成了黑夜,黑夜就躲进了被窝去温暖冲动的人们。 航拍高原雪山海子拉萨河 未知9月24日 风马飞扬客栈阳台日出 骑一辆单车晃悠,中午还得奔赴团结村见面会;

日喀则到珠峰路,本以为零柒年走过一次不会这么快再走一次,一晃也过去了4年,岁月这把杀猪刀在脸庞没有留下多少印记,倒是苍老了蒙尘太久的心。行进的老车,摇摇晃晃,风霜,没有写在脸上,那是一路的黄沙在嘴里。 老定日的公厕依旧是半开放式的,雨夹雪中乞讨的人相继穿梭于各个小饭馆,当然还有卖化石的藏族小伙子们的巧舌如簧。各色人种,齐聚于这个小镇,像要发生什么大事情,但其实只是大家都要去珠峰北坡大本营,这个小镇是必经之地而已;这个场景要是带一把剑,一袭褐色斗篷,一匹灰色宝马,豪气的朝酒家吼上一嗓:二斤白酒,一斤卤牛肉,飞奔下马进屋,想必剑气十足,足够亮骚。可这是社会主义社会,来了,你就不能带凶器,胸器是可以的。正在幻想间,有人出手买了三叶虫化石;2.5亿年前的生物,掂在手里,含泪形象顿显,触摸一块寒武纪的石头,历史的厚重感油然而生,三叶虫不在乎自己躺着的姿态,它兀自高傲的望着远方,历史长河里有什么是恒古不变的,历经风霜还屹立不倒?三叶虫化石做到了,它可以骄傲。 三叶虫易手了,卖海螺化石的又来了;看来同伴被当做了重点客户公关,只是轻微的几声关于化石真假的质疑,就引起三叶虫化石小伙的民族矛盾教唆:你们X族人就是没有信任。。。还行,不是X族,那Z族哥们的立场决然坚定。 上了饭菜,都毫不客气的狼吞虎咽,这个习惯一直都保持到了拉萨的散伙饭。高原,寒冷,看来大家都不顾形象而风卷残云的填满不是那么坚强的胃,这点,足矣证明,条件艰苦与否是人是否装逼的一个充分非必要条件。 摇晃到扎西宗,太阳才吝啬的露出了半个脸,唱完山歌过了垭口,大地就一片苍茫。 北方常见的雪,在南方人的眼中似乎永远都多了一份喜悦和浪漫。 明亮的车窗,摇晃的依靠的更近,下了包,入住营地的友谊宾馆。今晚难熬了,海拔很高,还很寒冷。他的心很冷,身体也很冷,北风一直才吹,他被冷死了,穿的太少了。这个故事不会在现实发生。帐篷旅馆的老板生起了牛粪炉子,并碎碎念的做好了鸡蛋面。女人们都要了两碗,外加一个荷包蛋。男人们都斯文太多,许是需要的空气太多,供给不上,连咀嚼消化的力气都减半。更有甚者,太饱同学没有忍住,直接帐篷里现场直播。长安乱的小和尚释然不是说了嘛:忍无可忍,无需再忍。既然那么痛苦,直接稀里哗啦哈。对不起,不该拿比人的痛苦说事,所幸的这个营地血氧指不高的,身体异样的都坚持了下来。 入夜,也不知道是那个仙女吹了一口气,云居然散开了不少,漫天星斗。静夜,躺成一条河。 第四章9月27日走的每一步,都有强烈的牵挂,不知道是拿不起,还是放不下昨夜星辰,昨夜风。晨起,天色放晴,银色世界,大爱纯洁。冻的直打哆嗦,日出啥的都是浮云了,眼观就好了,脚架是不会拿出来了。猛烈的咔嚓后,胡乱吃了半张饼,一碗粥;赶紧的,要去曲当乡,断想北坡这个地方不会再来了吧?零柒年这样认为,壹壹年再次到来还是这样认为。以后走阿里线还会顺道经过?一切都是未知,从此不敢再绝对。珠峰晨光大本营藏民家的狗共同守望珠峰北坡大本营 晨起的鸟儿们 9月27日 走的每一步,都有强烈的牵挂,不知道是拿不起,还是放不下 世界上海拔最高的寺庙 绒布寺 离开或许还会再来车窗上的冰凌 离开或许还会再来 大雪 导致短暂拥堵 9月27日 走的每一步,都有强烈的牵挂,不知道是拿不起,还是放不下 扎西宗的成都餐馆,被过往的游人涂鸦的很有江湖气息。墙上花里胡哨的书写着每个过路人的心情故事,不乏笑料。正午的阳光很毒辣,在阴凉的石头房子里喝茶,午饭,小憩是一件很幸福的事情。幸福离你只有一步之遥,看,街上穿梭的午休的学生,几乎每人手一盒牛奶,许是微博公益的“免费午餐”,世间好人多,此地已被覆盖,甚感欣慰。门外的流浪狗很多,大厨丹增把吃不完的饭菜全部赠予了这些上苍带到世间的生灵,他们的眼神满是感激和满足。 离开扎西宗,往曲当的山路崎岖不平。也是狭义上此次珠峰东坡及马卡鲁北坡徒步的开始。荒凉,主宰这这个河谷,唯有河谷底有些微的一簇簇绿色,人类的建筑也一定围绕着仅有的生命。 昏睡两个多小时,领队喵喵告知到了曲当,出了一点状况,之前预定的珠峰宾馆只有6个床位了,条件真的很简陋,实在和这个名字不太符合。所幸还有另外一家庭旅馆,条件稍好;而且还有一个透亮的堂屋,可以散落横躺喝酒胡吹海侃。曲当乡不经意的,遇见彩虹 抢好了床位开始折腾从沿海带去的两个澳芒,那两个如成人双拳紧握般大小的芒果,一路颠簸,也开始发酵。黑眼圈毫不分说,手起刀落,稀里糊涂的进了大家的肠胃。本应作为山野炫耀之物,却在山门口便经由人类的分解作用化为肥料,始料未及。 店家的厕所是在室外,一个土砖砌成的矮房子二楼,上须经一耷拉的楼梯,无扶手,茅厕亦无顶;有好事者盘算,人若上去,便撤了那梯子,坐地起价,让入恭者沦为待宰羔羊。一夜,这个故事也没有发生,意淫都是开花不结果。 是夜,淅淅沥沥的下起了下雨。司机开始和泰山喝着拉萨啤酒,藏人的婚俗也开始被同伴艳羡。店家汉语不错,老婆只会藏语,就在一旁笑笑,并不时添酒。店家以前经常走去尼泊尔经商,他说不远,才说五到六天;好吧,若想偷渡,去吧,山就在那里的。 雨越来越大。在村子碰见的外国队伍就是由于天气原因下撤了,都等了三四天了;店家说下雨了5天;期盼这次进山有个好天气,于是有人预测,明天是一个晴天,此人后来被赐号:半仙。每当乌云密布之时,他的只言片语总让大家感觉到希望,后来事实证明那确实是梦想成真的,兴许,这是相信的力量。 从珠峰大本营过来,累了,躺在床上就呼呼大睡,可害苦了旁边的少爷。据后来店家回忆,半夜少爷老是起床,独自站在门口遥望星空,店家每次都问:需要什么向日葵视频色板APP官网,少爷总是摇头不语,专注夜观天象,祈祷明天有个好天气。据后来少爷的红颜知己沙沙回忆,裹着那个零下50度的鸭绒睡袋,枕边山风呼啸,只恨枕头不能消灭一切声响,他躺不住了,他站起来了,他咬牙切齿,几乎手起刀落,仇恨的怒火,在偏远的山村,化为漫天的仰望,这星空,看出了啥不同?这折腾的一夜,于少爷是折磨的一夜,于睡熟的人是难得的温柔乡。 第五章9月28日我在想你你却不知道 王妈妈的裹脚,整了又臭又长的一堆,终于开始正,徒步开始。那心情,如小鸟一般放飞,偷笑一下,都老鸟了,哎,这世道,就习惯装嫩。徒步的起点 优帕村 曲当乡到优帕村的公路只有一段能走司机罗布的中巴,在一座小桥,卸下了所有物资,背上当天所需,向着大山开进。公用物资就直接交给牦牛队了,等不及牦牛队的到来,双脚不由自主的朝坡上的村子爬了上去。 一路的扎西德勒,村子里的藏民都很友好的回应,但是基本都不太会汉语;峡谷四周的雪山若隐若现,谷底的田里青稞已经开始收割,金黄一片;走在半山腰的村子的田梗上,望着谷底小路上的同伴,意气风发的向着雪山迈进;偶遇小牛,被绳拴住,爱心泛滥的伍舞还是禁不住去调戏了一把,小牛连吃奶的力气都使出,方逃离她的魔幻掌。炊烟 优帕村 9月28日我在想你你却不知道 不时有飞鸟掠过天空 自由的心情加快了前进的步伐 青稞草垛 丰收的喜悦 优帕河谷中的富饶之地 9月28日我在想你你却不知道 徒步开始就来了一个下马威,一个大上坡;费劲九牛二虎之力,爬到垭口,吃路餐。七零八零开始嘲笑六零不会吃果冻,六零们倒是超然的扔出香烟分享。人和人的沟通交汇需要一个载体,在这荒芜的山腰间,香烟,就是最好的选择;燃烧的是虚无,烟尘的飘忽,摇曳漂移的眼神,你我之间,无需言语,你的沉静,有我的寂寞感染。黑眼圈贡献的白骄,过滤嘴中间一点红心,初抽,青涩未褪,难免呛人;拗个造型,就徐娘半老了,吞云吐雾的,好不快活。当下的光景,雪山在云雾中欲迎还羞,走路的人们却佯装一路美景。 从山上走下的藏民说有两队老外人马在小乌错扎营了,大家决定在一个山谷安顿今夜的寂寞时光;好吧,小乌错,今夜月光皎洁,孤寂的散发你的芬芳吧,明日再拥抱你。山谷秋色渐浓 既来之,则安之;七手八脚的搭着帐篷,不知谁发现一个白色大蘑菇,大家都欣喜若狂的合影,可怜的蘑菇边角被人踩掉一块,追问之下,肇事者却是泰山;维纳斯也是残缺的,心安理得的配上娇艳欲滴纤纤玉手,外加紫色指甲,一副摧菇魔手图在快门的咔嚓下完成。这个蘑菇的命运在藏民发现后就发生了转折,直接被踩得四分五裂,呜呼哀哉。 妩媚的抚摸 残缺的蘑菇确不能体会 米玛大厨的第一餐,晴空文质彬彬的拿出他白色的小碗,他人却风卷残云;很多事情最初的主观界定会是一个严重的错误,若及时的调转方向,就会拨云见日。日后的几餐,再也不见那悲催的小白碗。 很诧异在这个季节,高山杜鹃绽放;不过一夜寒霜,花瓣就变成了冰凌 9月28日我在想你你却不知道 夜未央,仓惶的流萤没见提着灯笼,流星倒是不时划过天际,思绪野草般疯长,蔓延。赶急的夜风唱着山歌敲打着贫瘠的思恋浅浅深深,敲开了如水的心扉,深深浅浅,浅浅深深,落寞的双翅鼓鼓作响。梦的呓语,游荡整个宁静的夜。 角色甲:一种难以名状的情愫。在高原恶劣的天气,身体有些反抗,期待一个坚实的肩膀。捧一碗热水,偎依,眼角湿润,流下的都是感知。不能天荒地老,就珍惜每一个在身边的日子。多想守候自在你身旁,静静的感受命运变幻,即使无常,体会那默默忍耐的力量,明朝清风依旧会掠过山岗,依然会感觉寒冷,但无法阻挡对温暖的向往。 角色乙:世俗眼光,难道始终人前陌路。被爱是一种幸福,不介意身份,年龄,外貌。人前还是得带上伪装的面具,你感受的得么,没有你的搀扶? 露营第一天营地 繁星 第六章9月29日追逐,看不见的彼岸,你在等我吗? 有些心底想念的话,到了嘴角,却又咽下,于是时光彷徨,日子漫长。 山谷中的第一夜,感觉还不错;一早吃了白粥咸菜白水蛋,不等消化就和时君,伍舞先行朝小乌错开进,从此踏上了找日的征程。前面的雪山开始逐渐被阳光照耀,于空寂的峡谷,觅得杜鹃树下,舒坦的清理了肠道。路遇几个小水塘,开始都以为是小乌错,但是一会就把自己否决。开始了幻觉,在一个垭口抽了几支烟方才清醒,天空云层变厚,太阳开始闪烁其词。直到正午,遇上了老外的牦牛队整装出发,才确认到了小乌错,才确认这是现实,而非梦境。 迎着朝阳放声高歌 第一眼,她的波光粼粼就让人砰然心动,然后用双眸清澈眼神,触摸她的婀娜多姿。一切只是开始,独自静坐湖边小山坡,看云卷云舒,乌鸦盘旋。太阳的恩泽,雪山的庇佑,时间虽未被定格,却已化作丝丝情愫,柔软了天地。躺在她的臂弯,向日葵色板官方都是天真的孩子。 小乌措 招呼后到的同伴爬上湖边的小山坡,分享阳光。雪山沁人的清风,享受五星的室外午餐------米玛秘制卤鸡腿,红牛,雪梨,果冻,曲奇,简单而美好。 途径沼泽静谧 行走,朝着雪山的方向 心生象象生花 路遇老外团队驮队 小乌措阳光正好小乌措大美无言小乌措乌鸦群 小乌措翱翔 每个人都有自己的一片天空,如同天空飞翔的吉祥乌鸦回复 紫藤秋水 的帖子haha,这条线路好,希望火起来,可以媲美尼泊尔的EBC. 回复 黑眼圈D 的帖子 那是必须的, 小乌措行走(大部分队伍都有在曲当请牦牛和小工,后去的队伍记得找乡政府安排,每家都有排号等候分配,免得引起当地藏民的收入纠纷) 名副其实小乌措 小乌措的乌鸦确实很多,个头很大。照片右边若隐若现的雪山为马卡鲁 孤单的不只是玩偶回复 南京小跳 的帖子参数都没有删除,大部分D700,小部分 LX5 垭口翻过雪花飞舞 沿湖边走上垭口,天空开始飘雪,往上积雪变得越发厚实,只有沿着前面牦牛留下的深深的脚印,才不至于迷失在黑白世界;周边有三个海子,都是登高后才发现,那份宁静深远,只好远观。 垭口回望小乌措 一路向上颇多海子 建议后续小乌措扎营的TX早点从小乌措出发,垭口的天气变化快,上午晴空万里,风景更美回复 pgy250 的帖子多谢赞扬,咱国家的大好河山很多哈,只不过很多咱们都不是太知道;倒是老外去的多哦([]
2010.享受老挝慢时光. 01(行程图、攻略)老挝LAOS,全称Lao People's Democratic Republic。 在游客群中,老挝仿佛就是东南亚国家中号召力最弱的一个,或许是最易被人忽略的地方了,它既没有吴哥、蒲甘、素可泰刺痛心灵的历史古迹,也没有普吉苏梅、西哈努克、美奈芽庄那样海天一色的美景,但神秘、悠闲、恬静、与世无争,恰恰是这个小小佛国给予现代人最好的礼物。 老挝,它保持了东南亚最后的原始天然和淳朴宁静,未经雕琢的自然风光和质朴天然的风土人情,与现代文明的差距正是老挝的诱人之处。尽管经济落后,物质匮乏,几乎没有工业(可能至今仍旧是世界上最平穷的25个国家之一),但小小的、懒散的、仿若时光流转回去的老挝,却令东西方背包客趋之若鹜。或许,在原始的状态中享受悠闲的快乐,是种更为直接更为本真的快乐。 是的,老挝没有令人失魂落魄大惊大艳的风景人文,老挝有的,只是平淡渗透的美。只要你走近它就会发现,老挝其实就像那著名的Lao coffee,看似清苦,但在唇齿舌尖滑过之后,便会在心中印下淡淡的甘美。 走过老挝、放逐欲望。去吧,去老挝!享受现代人稀罕的慢时光......年初从南越旅行回来的时候,都不曾想到自己十一长假会游到老挝。 还是因各位老挝游回来的前辈,在网上留下了太多精美诱惑的PP和文字,加之查到2007年老挝当选LP背包客最想去的地方之一,心里面一下子就放不开老挝咯!这竟促使我改变了“提前一年就定好旅行时间和地点”的老习惯,最终在六月份上亚航下了订单,这次老挝旅行就这样突如其来鸟。 十天的辗转颠簸下来,总的来说,老挝之行比想象中轻松,之前一直担心的交通衔接问,由于旅游市场的逐步成熟,现在都有代理或GH可以预定点到点的大巴联票了,让游客省了不少力,真不错呢! 趁着刚回来的新鲜劲儿,赶紧把实际行程和tips记下来,以供向往它的XDJM们参考吧。实际行程: D1 昆明,傍晚1830卧铺大巴(新螺蛳湾南部客运站、24h、¥374)发车 D2 大巴临晨430途经勐腊~730重新出发~930途径磨憨~1030口岸过境+老挝磨丁Beton入境~之后沿老挝13号公路开行~ 1930 到达琅勃拉邦Luang Prabang城郊的北星宾馆。 D3 琅勃拉邦(清早看布施&逛早市、下午光西瀑布Tat Kuang Si、傍晚观湄公河日落、夜市购物) D4 琅勃拉邦(清早看布施&揽湄公河晨景、白天逛寺庙——香通寺Wat Xieng Thong、维苏那拉特寺西瓜塔Wat Visoun、皇宫博物馆Royal Palace Museum、傍晚普西山Phu Si落日、夜市购物) D5 琅勃拉邦800~VIP大巴(7h、240公里)~1500到达万荣VangVieng(南松河看日落) D6上午万荣(骑行郊游,or Tubing漂流);下午1330VIP大巴(4h、160公里)~1715到达万象Vientiane(湄公河边日落)~2030卧铺大巴(过夜) D7清早630到达巴色Pakse~730VIP大巴~1030纳卡桑村渡口Nakasang~15分钟渡船~1100到达东德岛Dong Det(湄公河看日落) D8上午东德岛(骑行看小瀑布,or包船海钓…);下午1600渡船~纳卡桑村13号公路口~1730VIP大巴~傍晚1930到达巴色~2000卧铺大巴(过夜) D9清早630到达万象;之后万象(早市场、香昆寺佛像公园、超市购特产) D10白天万象(逛寺庙——塔峦寺That Dam、凯旋门Patuxai、西萨格寺Wat Si Saket、玉佛寺Wat Ho Phra Keo); 傍晚万象~亚航~返程D11Tips 1、关于季节的问: 向日葵色板官方的十一长假,正处于东南亚雨季的尾巴。一般每天都会有阵雨,有时是一个多小时的倾盆暴雨,有时却只滴几粒眼泪水,最适宜的是晚上的那场阵雨。白天温度,也就在30~33°C,不下雨的时候阳光灿烂够晒滴,到了夜晚会好过一点22~25°C,通风好的房间只用吊扇就将就OK了(房间要开空调的话,那可是另一个价咯)。 但十一长假,却正好在老挝的旅游淡季里头(老挝旅游旺季是11~2月),呵呵,游客少,确实感受很深啊,不用担心好的GH客满,还可以低价入住!吃饭、订车票、户外活动也一样不用担心拥挤。 十一长假去的优点还有,植被茂盛稻田原野葱绿很养眼,缺点则是雨季河水太浑浊,湄公河几乎变“黄河”了,光西瀑布的钙化池也是黄蜡蜡的,全然没了“小黄龙”的影子,没有诱人的碧池,也容易失去下水的欲望。 2、关于老挝筛选游地的提示: 游客常去的老挝游点有:琅勃拉邦、万荣、万象、四千岛、丰沙湾、占巴色、波罗芬高原。因时间路线和个人兴趣之故,向日葵色板官方只去了前面四地。 琅勃拉邦——位于上寮,是老挝古都,必去!其中最大的看点在于:清早布施、逛夜市购物、光西瀑布钙化池跳水、普西山日落、香通寺的生命之树。 万荣——位于中寮。卡斯特地貌,探洞、骑行、turbing漂流、跳水、皮划艇、篝火狂bar......是鬼佬弄出来的户外活动经典之地,被称“山寨版阳朔”,两者的确很像,不过个人看法是:万荣就是万荣,不要以为去过阳朔就可以忽略万荣了。...以前,万荣遍布含大麻的酒饮,菜单上称之“happy xx”的,现在老挝禁毒,表面上几乎已绝迹了。 万象——位于中寮,是老挝首都,可能是世界上唯一位于边境的国家首都了吧,感觉上是很平易近人的一个国都。另,不要理解字面意思,“万象”可是一头大象也没有的,其实“万象”是粤语的译音,普通话直接音译应该接近“万听”之类的,台湾人则叫它“万珍”(呵呵,台湾人按照古时候的称谓,还称老挝为“寮国”的)。 四千岛——位于下寮,在与柬埔寨接壤的湄公河上,灰常原生态!鬼佬心仪之地。骑行、游船、河钓、晒太阳、看书、写东西、想心事、发呆、乱转......反正你去那里就准备好kill time就好咯。 丰沙湾——位于上寮,以看平原石缸为卖点的原生态地区,据说能看到更淳朴的清晨布施。 占巴色——位于下寮,也很原生态,以一处比吴哥历史还早的高棉石窟而著名,只是破坏程度也更厉害了。 ......没想到实际走下来,个人最喜欢的是万荣和东德岛两地,而且特遗憾的是都只住了一晚!!同伴J-J同学很经典地说,那是因为近来太忙的人才会喜欢乡下生活,哈哈,要是闲人会更喜欢琅勃拉邦和万象舒适的生活了吧。所以,提醒一下生长在乡间和城市的同学,别盲目跟风,要选对自己的地方,毕竟像咱这类穷人上班族,假期和米米都很有限呐,要珍惜! 3、特别需要提醒携带的东东: 耳塞防high噪音、水上活动时的防水袋、飞机和夜行大巴上披的外套、色彩艳丽轻便的晴雨伞、高指数防晒霜、太阳镜、蚊不叮or驱虫软膏。 (如果陆路过境的话,很可能刚进咱边警的出境楼,就被直接捉到2楼交40大元办黄本本--健康证了,不过换回来的3颗防疟疾药片和一小支军医院出品的长效驱虫膏,俺们都用了,尤其那个驱蚊膏,比较了带去的其他向日葵视频色版下载,那效果,还真不是一般的好啊,真意外!所以,还是要相信老军医喔,哈哈) 其他可选的还有:mm的防晒薄长袖衣、骑行郊游用的防晒大沿儿帽、泳衣外的纱笼、以及无烟盘香、带USB口的插座、湿纸巾...... 建议携带药物:抗过敏药、奎宁防疟疾、藿香正气水、黄连素、维生素等...... 4、换汇经验: 磨憨口岸的人民币换汇最高,向日葵色板官方9.25过关时换到的是“ 1人民币 CNY = 1201老挝基普 LAK ”,跟出行前查的汇率相差很小。后来在老挝一路上的Exchange窗口看了,人民币换汇一路下跌啊,最高也就只有1180了,倒是感觉用美金换的汇率好,一般都稳定在8.1~8.0x左右(1 美元USD = 8100老挝基普 LAK),跟国际汇率相差不大。 注意一下,在磨憨口岸出关前(就是大巴停在关口一下车)就要换好钱,其实大巴前面停在磨憨车站时,就有不少当地妇女手里拿大沓的老挝基普围kip上来要换汇了(一般她们的喊价很难再还价的,即使你们有好几个人一起换大额)。因为你下了大巴不换钱,一旦进入中国这边的出境办公楼,给边警看了护照盖了出境章就得从另一面大门出去,这一脚跨出境,出了门就不让停留了,更别说换钱了,哪怕你跟换钱的妇女只隔一栏杆。 另外,兑换老币kip时一定不要怕麻烦,千万记住要当面清点清楚,否则可能发生缺张的情况,以及币值给错的“意外”情况,在老挝境内使用老币时也得一样小心!经验是注意下区分大面额5W和2W,都是粉红色的,还有老币常用的最小面值一千的纸币上,那个老挝数字1长得很像阿拉伯数字9喔,别慌慌张张的搞晕了!(呵呵,事实上也不可能存在有九千票面的钱币哒)。其实老币也有500面值和100面值的小纸币,有时候你换汇或在超市购物找零,常常被莫名地去零头,可别轻易地算了,记得老币也有小面值的喔,拿来留作纪念也蛮好滴。 老挝币只有纸币没有硬币的,简称kip,老挝币里头“零”太多,一般就以W为单位去计算老币就好了。跟人民币的快速等值换算,就是乘以8再去掉后面4个“零”,差不多就是人民币的当值咯,比如,老挝人比划价钱说1Wkip(一般会说英语ten,就是“十千”kip),其实相当于人民币8块钱左右。 5、便利的长途大巴联票: 很高兴地是,发现现在老挝境内的旅游地,诸如万荣~万象~巴色~四千诸岛,都可以买到联票了,这跟在越南走open tour公司车票、以及在尼泊尔代理车票都是类似的,很方便,票价呢也并非贵多少!尤其是去四千岛的3个岛(东阔岛、东德岛、东昆岛),原本看前辈的游记中提起,都得靠自己一程程链接砍价找车,麻烦又费时还要担心衔接问,但现在都可以订到车船联票咯,呵呵,也就是说,你买了他们的联票,就不怕赶不上每一个环节的大巴咯,真是省心呀。 另外,也有发完境外泰国、越南、柬埔寨各地的联票,大大地方便了串游东南亚的XDJM们。 6、城镇内交通: 太远不能走路过去时,就靠tuktuk(或者jump)了,实质是三轮摩托的改装小车,前者小点。 坐tutu车前一定要先讲好价、手写出来示意,因为老挝币的“零”太多了,尤其是在万象“大”城市,还很可能被故意混淆teen和ty的发音,1.8W和8W差的可不是一点儿,会被骗惨!另,旺季一定特别要跟车主谈好,包车中途是否准许再上人,不然相信会被挤扁。 现在tutu一般起价都叫1W/人,即使在这样的淡季,有时还会蒙5W/2人的。在车站内和游客聚居区要还下来价格较难,所以一般就自己背包走出车站外面,或走一段远离游客区,再拦车砍价更好。 小经验:只要是在琅勃拉邦城内转悠,当地人乘的tutu价格是0.5Wkip;在万象,别相信那些景点tutu车主拿出的价格表,那高得真是太昧良心了! 7、通讯用老挝手机卡: 强烈建议穷游一族在到达当日就买好老挝SIM卡!老挝的手机卡很好买,小店里都有。我们买的M phones卡,2Wkip,里面还含差不多20~30分钟的老挝境内通话时间(没仔细记录,粗估的)。 老挝有2大通讯公司,一个是ETL,另外一个是LAO TEL。使用老挝的电话卡,单向收费,接听全免费,包括接听国际长途哦。建议买LAO TEL的M PHONE 电话卡,老挝境内差不多700kip一分钟,打回中国的话自动转成IP(就是直接0086-地区号-你要拨打的号码就可以了),2000kip左右一分钟。而ETL比较麻烦,打长话必须要加188,就变成了IP,如果不加188,那个费用吓死你! 附,中国通移动开通国际漫游的老挝资费准:(1).拨打当地电话4.99/分钟,拨中国国内电话0086+号码12.99/分钟,接听电话5.99/分钟。可以选择中国移动推出的**139优惠业务拨打国内电话,费用与接听相同5.99/分,每分钟可节省7 元。使用方法:拨国内手机拨**139*86 手机号#,固话拨**139*86区号用户号#,成功呼出后手机上会显示“Ok.Please wait”字样,此时可挂机等待约半分钟,移动会为您接通电话回拨过来。若被叫未接听电话则无需支付费用。(2).发国内用户短信1.99/条,接收短信免费。 8、生活: 老挝是220V电压与国内相同,大部分GH里的插头都是2孔的。 一般Guset House的开价,用空调的普遍比只用吊扇的贵2Wkip。特别指出一点,中文版的《LP老挝》一书版本较早,其中GH指导价格早已过时,甚至有些推荐的食店也早就关张找不到了(这点在琅勃拉邦特别突出)。 饮水,大的GH里有大净水桶,可以灌装。一般就自己在小店买6软瓶一组的瓶装饮用水,最高买过0.8W一组在四千岛,最低是0.5W一组在万象。好像洋鬼子都很喜欢买这种软瓶装,他们鬼着呢,估计这样买水最合算。 老挝小超市很多,日用品一应俱全,很方便。比如小小90ml的飘柔洗发水也就合人民币四五块钱,比越南还便宜点儿呢。街头Massage的小店很多,相对上海的美体店那是便宜得很,不过老挝的style用力太温柔,不够爽,用的精油也不够好。 9、小吃吃经验: 这个季节水果就买那种小米芭蕉吧,因为都是自然熟的,甜而糯很美味,比大香蕉还好吃。一扇小米芭蕉的当地价是0.5kip,记住喔!街上有水果小推车,有剥好的柚子卖,0.5Wkip一个挺甘甜的,也有认不得的绿色佛手果,没尝。街上小零食推车有卖煮玉米、煮盐水花生、煮小红薯的,还有烤小米芭蕉的小摊子,3只0.1Wkip,烤过之后的味道就像烘山芋,真神奇!在琅勃拉邦街头,常见一种现场烤制的小椰汁糕,并不甜腻而是香糯,是很美味的甜品喔! 法棍还不错很便宜,街头本地人小摊0.1Wkip一小根,还有许多法棍夹菜吃法的小推车,跟越南街头的很相似,有的鬼佬就在街头买这种法棍夹菜三明治来吃,呵呵,便宜又饱肚。 老挝的汤粉不如越南的好吃,可能有个人口感的缘故吧。总觉得老挝本地人吃的偏咸,花式粥啊米粉啊都不敢多喝,甚至老挝油条里也都会放点儿调味料。 老挝的咖啡质量挺不错的,咖啡浓度比国内高,只是从未溶入本地人生活,这跟越南很不同。不过一般针对游客的餐店都会有lao咖啡卖,强烈建议品尝!个人体验是,老挝咖啡更偏重咖啡清香,而越南咖啡则添加更多奶油香。 10、食品手信: 建议作为老挝手信之一,去超市购买些LAO咖啡带回来,会受欢迎滴。LAO咖啡大品牌是DAO-HEUANG GROUP的DAO COFFEE(还有另一个本地品牌,貌似没有DAO做的大),除了超市有卖,它还有专卖店,三合一的大致有3种不同的口味,600g30支向日葵色板官方买的是2.7Wkip。还有咖啡粉、咖啡豆,按品质分价格不同。 老挝产的一种本地酸角软糖,淡淡的酸甜味,挺不错,不管是自己吃还是送人都很好,只是包装简单了些,向日葵色板官方买的是一小包大约20几粒1.3Wkip。 11、学几个有用的老挝语: 1-能、2-耸、3-伞姆、4-西、5-哈、6-货格、7-结特、8-白特、9-告、10-西普、千-潘; 中国-巴太金、谢谢-hope jai(Khawp jai)、再见-拉滚(但实际听到的发音像“老公”),最重要的一个必学词是老挝打招呼问好的sabaidee-萨拜迪。 The other‘s tips: a,老挝时间: (和越南泰国时间一样),都比中国北京时间晚一个小时,如中国的10:00am是老挝的9:00am。 b,重量单位: 注意下,老挝的水果、蔬菜、肉类、糖等,都是轮公斤出售,价全是xxxkip一公斤。 c,信用卡,取现: 基本无用,或者用也要加3%+手续费,ATM机是有的,有VISA的借记卡提现在这些地方还是方便。 d,购物支付货币: 买东西看价的货币吧。价是美元,最好用美元支付,价是kip,就用kip支付。要不然给你折算一次,会贵一些的。老挝本地老币、美金、泰铢都可以流通使用,人民币之前也开始流通了,就是因为假币问又不行了。 e,衣着、习俗: 老挝人不接受暴露太多的装束。忌讳用左手传递东西或食物、忌讳别人触摸他们的头。 f,寺庙参观: 老挝的寺庙一般下午四点多就关门,中午休息,要去要赶早。 另外Lao Guidebook 2010上说最好是早上拜访寺庙,清晨过来拍照,可以掌握最好的光线效果。 老挝的寺院,不管大小,进入都要脱鞋子和帽子,短裤不能太短,露背露肩的衣服不能穿。 g,食: 老挝以糯米饭为主,叫做 kao niao(发音),普通老挝人吃饭很简单的,少油盐,就1个凉拌菜,用手捏一小团糯米饭配着吃。 要试试老挝的damahong,就是凉拌木瓜,老挝的木瓜不像国内的都熟透了,这里都是生的,脆脆的,和着辣椒、鱼露还有西红柿什么的,拌在一块儿吃,是地道的老挝菜。 老挝的bin ba就是烤鱼也很不错,一定要试,不过有点小贵。注意老挝不临海,一般就是淡水鱼。 不要忘了吃吃老挝的kao biao,一种类似中国粉的东西,一般5000kip一碗,糯米做的,很管饱,而且味道很不错。 老挝有一种酸奶,味道很不错,上面原味的不含糖酸奶,地下室一层果酱,吃起来很有感觉。 来老挝千万不要忘了买瓶Beer Lao来喝:地道唯一的老挝啤酒,在老挝的市场占有率极高,是老挝人的自豪。Beer Lao比国内的啤酒纯多了,酒精度数也要高一些,酒量不好的,千万要注意啊,不要以为只是一瓶啤酒而已。Wine Lao:类似葡萄酒的一种水果口味酒,深受女性喜欢。Lao Lao酒:一种当地自产的米酒威士忌,度数较高,据说后劲很大。 各色水果shake是每餐必点的饮品,绝对的美味。夜市上小摊出售的shake最便宜,卫生条件也不错,5000KIP/杯,其他地方在6000-26000之间不等。Mix fruit shake、Papaya+Pineapple、Strewberry等口味都不错。 老挝咖啡享誉盛名,在炎热的午后来一杯浓郁的冰黑咖啡也不失为一种享受,7000-12000KIP/杯。 h,老挝特色小吃: 香蕉奶油口味的PANCAKE、小铝碗里烤的椰汁小饼、蒸红薯、法棍面包、放在小竹筒里面蒸熟的黏米饭、加入很多种类当地香料的清蒸河鱼、搭配鱼露汁的油炸时蔬饼…… i,市场还价: 摸索到一些报价规律,供大家参考 夜市里的小物件、特色商品、报价的7折是一般他提供的最低成交价,但5折大都可以成交,有人是来给自己小店采购的,因相对量较大,比如某种纸灯笼买20-30个,观察到3-3.5折是底价附近了!老挝背景资料: 老挝慢生活: 在中南半岛,有一句很有名的谚语:“越南人种田;柬埔寨人看着稻米成长;而老挝人连看都懒得看,只竖起耳朵,听着青翠的秧苗拔高成穗”(Vietnamese plant the rice;Cambodians watch it to grow;Laos listen it to grow.)。慢生活体现在老挝人身上,即是:Bo Pegniang (Please don’t rush 请不要着急),慢吞吞、闲散、安静、而且安宁,大多数人脸上都挂着和善的微笑,见到你会轻轻低低地问候一声“撒拜迪”。 宗教深入生活: 老挝全民信奉小乘佛教,有人聚居的地方就有寺庙,在城市里几乎走不了几步就会出现一处寺庙。老挝男性上至高官、下至平民百姓,一生之中都必须至少出家当一次和尚,每次一般3个月,少则3-5天,也有终身为僧不还俗的。寺庙对人们而言,是教育之所,是沿袭老挝文化之地。 小乘佛教徒主要守持五戒,但不持素,只忌食“十肉”(即:人、象、虎、豹、狮、马、狗、蛇、猫、龟),日进二斋,过午不食。(注意,异性不得与僧侣有身体上的触碰。) 附,大乘与小乘的区别——“乘” 为车辆的意思。大乘即大车辆,大牛车,普渡众生自度度他;小乘即小车辆,鹿车羊车,只能自度。教义上区别:小乘主张“我空法有” ;大乘主张 “我法皆空” 。实践方面的区别:小乘主张修持阿罗汉果,求得自我解脱,独善其身;大乘主张行菩萨道兼善天下,普度众生,最终成佛。目不同,修行内容方法也异:小乘修三学(戒、定、慧)八正道;大乘则兼修六波罗蜜(六度),即布施、持戒、忍辱、精进、禅定、智慧。 湄公河: 流经老挝全境,老挝语Menam Khon,柬埔寨语作MeKong(意“母亲”),越语作Song Tien Giang,中国境内称澜沧江(Lancang Jiang或Lan-ts'ang Chiang)。湄公河是东南亚的母亲河,总长约4,880公里(3,033哩),流域总面积:81.1万平方公里,是世界第六大河,亚洲第三长河,东南亚第一大河。发源于中国青海省,流经西藏自治区与云南省,此后成为缅甸与老挝之间,以及老挝与泰国之间的部分国际边界,还流经老挝、柬埔寨与越南,然后在胡志明市(西贡)南面注入南海。老挝首都万象与柬埔寨首都金边均在岸边。湄公河约3/4的流域面积在其下游流经的5国--缅甸、老挝、泰国、柬埔寨与越南。最后写一段外话收尾。 老挝旅游业发展很快,接触旅游的当地人,大都会用多种语言跟你搭讪。打招呼的词,英语、法语、日语、韩语、中国普通话...他们都会,连万象的外语培训公司里,中文也是频繁开班的语种之一。 不过肯定是来自中国的背包客太少了,向日葵色板官方被直接招呼“O ha yo”的比例高达95%,虽然被认成了日本人郁闷,但好过那剩余5%被认成棒子,哈哈!然后当向日葵色板官方大声纠正“Chinese”的时候,100%会被反问是否来自HongKong,看来“香港是中国的”这个命已深入世界咯,吼吼。不过,向日葵色板官方还是会继续纠正“from ShangHai”喔,也有不少老挝人知道上海的,还不错!而且老挝人大多对中国人很好奇,搞旅游的那些人总是想从向日葵色板官方这里多学几个中文词呢。 其实,在老挝做生意的湖南老乡浙江老乡遍布各处,他们常年生活在老挝,其中开中餐馆倒是不多,大部分开店做商品生意。到了老挝国都万象,虽然紧挨着泰国,小超市的食品大部分也是泰国货,但却几乎就变成中国人的天下了,向日葵色板官方看到大的就有水利公司、道桥公司、建筑公司、大宾馆...都竖着巨幅的中文牌识。老挝唯一那条贯通南北的13号公路,就主要是中国援建的,而13号公路从与中国接壤的磨丁开始,直达泰国廊开的这一段,属于“昆曼公路”的老挝段。从另一个高度来看,老挝对中国的战略意义可是很大啊。 老挝的四邻顺时针分别是泰国、中国(云南)、越南和柬埔寨,前两个经济好的国家对它都有深刻影响。如今老挝旅游业飞速发展,不由得让人对它独特的原生态产生担忧,......唉,看看中国内地恶劣扰人的旅游业现状就够了。重要补充: 1)关于证。 俺习惯把事情提前做好,所以行前就把证的事情搞妥了才出门,建议XDJM们尽量跟俺一样。喜欢随性的人肯定会不屑地会问了:Why?虽说游记上查到的信息,说老挝可以陆路落地的人更多,事实上,那只是一般情况。口岸的政策随时在变,与向日葵色板官方同车的帅哥就遭遇了惨烈的意外!向日葵色板官方过境那段时间说是不给落地了,然后不得不找了换汇的小妹,她们讲可以帮忙通关系,最后的结果是花了一千大洋才过了国门!!要知道,老挝目前证费200元,一般委托代理也不过300元。(老挝证目前只有在北京和昆明可以自己办。) 2)老挝入境卡 到老挝入境的窗口,记得先问他们要入境卡!!自己填好再递进去盖章办手续。切记切记!!不然,他们不会主动递出空白卡来的,你就会被索要20RMB (or 2Wkip)才能被放过喔。 3)公路信息 据穷游网刚回来发帖的mm说,打听到两个月后,昆明~老挝公路的老挝段要开始维修了,老挝人的效率是不清楚几时能完工的,提醒要去的人注意。关键是老挝段都是窄窄的山路,弯弯曲曲的路况真的不好,反正俺睡在车子最前面中间位子的下铺,也非得用脚抵着栏杆,才不至于被时时东摇西摆的大巴甩出床铺,唉,确实很颠!要是修起路来,路况更差、错车更困难,估计从昆明到琅勃拉邦可就远不止24h咯! 4)夜行大巴 因为老挝的车子大部分是棒子那儿来的二手车,所以大巴铺位改装得怪怪的。万象和巴色的来回,俺们都睡了双人的那种上铺(幸好同伴J-J同学也不胖,哈哈),订票时可以提要求的,比如要前面的上铺。下铺一般有拉帘子,不过要是跟陌生人挤一个铺还要拉帘子可真受不了啦......,后来知道,也有单铺大巴卖,价格无异。琅勃拉邦到万象的也是夜行巴士,不晓得是否也有两种大巴呢? 看网上也有人说昆明到琅勃拉邦的大巴,买到的是上下都是双人的那种铺位,不过向日葵色板官方那趟车还是一排2x3个单铺的。单人铺很窄小的呢,连俺都觉得受不来,跟上海到青岛的“恐怖超载”夜行班车一样,呵呵,还是在北疆坐到的卧铺大巴宽敞啊(怀念ing,俺深爱着的北疆,咔咔)。 另,在昆明~琅勃拉邦的夜行大巴上,可能会有小偷装成的客人,要特别小心随身贵重物品!这个小偷往往是半夜到达勐腊之前(临晨4点),开始在走道里匍匐翻包行窃,然后在勐腊下车,事实上,过了勐腊之后,大巴上就剩下五六光人了,包括一个日本独驴。 2010.享受老挝慢时光. 02(预告美图之一)唉,每次旅行回来,一想到要整理4千张海量照片,都是一个头十个大。~~估计哪天就真的欠债不还直接潜逃啦,嘻嘻......^_^不多说牢骚话咯,先上几张自己喜欢的预告美图吧。 Ps.全部原创图片啊,咔咔,D90还没摸熟,PP问多多,请大家批评指正。 琅勃拉邦,Luang Prabang:在琅勃拉邦的花阴下,沉醉。` 大名在外的香通寺,它代表了琅勃拉邦的寺庙风格,与高棉和泰国的寺庙不同,寺顶一直垂至地面。主殿内壁全部是鎏金壁画,主殿后壁外墙上,则镶嵌着一棵令人过目不忘的生命之树!` ` 日落普西山远没有想象中的辉煌美妙,太阳哗啦一下子就掉到山后去咯。事实上,在普西山,还是看人间炊烟、天上晚霞来得棒。 万容,VangVieng:一只沉醉在万荣喀斯特风景里的猫猫。南松河上,飘回来的是正爽得hight的皮划艇&tubing。远处跳水+畅饮+蹦迪中的鬼佬&近处光PP戏水的本地小P孩。著名的LP推荐的看景GH:elephant crossing......不过,个人认为还是在这里次次4.5Wkip/人的较丰盛自助早餐,一边看看美景是最合算的咯。万象,Vientiane:万象的湄公河日落......注意,对岸可是泰国的土地咯。荣登老挝国徽的图案:塔銮。被赋予国家主权象征的鎏金塔,金光灿灿的果然好气势啊!万象并没有大象,只找到这两只石头小象,蹲在法式老房子的外墙上,快乐地甩鼻子嬉戏着。老挝首都最拿得出手的大街景,号称“小香榭丽舍”大道,远处就是老挝的“凯旋门”。呵呵,这个视角看起来,跟模仿的原型还真有些相似啊。2010.享受老挝慢时光. 03(预告美图之二) 特别喜欢四千美岛这个地方,为它拍了许多照片。选片好难,难以取舍,呵呵,只好再开一个新篇来预告它了,希望您不要嫌弃它的PP太多......四千岛 之 东德岛,Dong Det:(湄公河 篇)(四千美岛)(黄昏) ` ` ` ([]
每年至少游一个地方,是这几年一直所追求的。当然,都是自由行。2011年去过新疆,进行过一天的徒步,就被这种旅行方式深深吸引,全身心地投入,去感觉大自然对身体和心灵的冲击和洗礼,让所有的一切得到彻底的放松,徒步游的种子已在心底发芽。一直在网上找各种徒步线路,国内的、国外的。尼泊尔的几条徒步线路闻名世界,其中以ABC、ACT、EBC最为代表。EBC线路大都在5000米以上,最担心高反无法适应,ABC和ACT都是比较好的选择,有逐步适应的过程。选择很久,攻略看了N多,决定进行安娜普尔纳大环(ACT)徒步,原旅伴都因各种原因无法成行,一咬牙,决定个人独自前往,路上再找旅伴。而且因为是一个人,仗着身体素质好,ACT也成熟,决定不找向导,不雇背夫,挑战一下重装徒步大环。除了新疆一天漫步式的徒步,个人从来没有其它户外经验,重装徒步更是没有经历过,心里还是有点发毛,临行前几天加入了一个QQ背包客群,找到了一个和我同一线路的旅伴,就这样,开始我人生第一次重装徒步行。 尼泊尔徒步线路众多,被称为徒步者的天堂,一点也不为过,而安娜普尔纳大环线则被誉为“世界第一徒步线路”。确实,一圈走下来,深切地感受到了她的魅力。先把行程列一下,给想去的朋友一个参考:第一天:加德满都—Besisahar—Syange,乘车13小时;第二天:Syange—Dharapani,徒步9小时,行程21公里,上升850米;第三天:Dharapani—Bhratang,徒步10.5小时,行程23公里,上升950米;第四天:Bhratang—Ngawal,徒步10小时,行程17公里,上升830米;第五天:Ngawal—Manang,徒步3小时,行程10公里,下降140米;第六天:Manang—Tilicho Base Camp,徒步7.5小时,行程16公里,上升660米;第七天:Tilicho Base Camp—Tilicho Lake—Sheree Kharka,徒步10小时,先上升1000米,再下降1150米;第八天:Sheree Kharka—Letdar,徒步8小时,行程13公里,上升150米;第九天:Letdar—High Camp,徒步7小时,行程7公里,上升650米;第十天:High Camp—Thorung Pass—Muktinath,徒步6.5小时,行程14公里,先上升566米,后下降1600米;Muktinath—Jomsom—Ghasa,乘车5小时;行程49公里;第十一天:Ghasa—Tatopani ,乘车3小时,Tatopani—Ghorepani,徒步7小时,行程17公里,上升1700米;第十二天:Ghorepani—Poonhill—Ghorepani—Nayapul,徒步10小时,行程16公里,先上升330米,后下降2230米。在加德满都“New Bus Station”乘车去传统徒步起点BESISAHAR,一点也看不出是新公交车站的味道,车站破旧,车也破旧,但人还是很友善的,这个感觉,在尼泊尔整个行程中都能感受到。路上堵车是家常便饭,尼泊尔全境就没有几条公路,所有去尼泊尔旅游的人要有心理准备。当然,有飞机的地方,乘机是最快的选择,但尼泊尔的飞机安全吗?心里打鼓,2012年9月28还掉了一架。尼泊尔的卡车都很具有观赏性,都类似这样跟大篷车似的 到了BESISAHAR后,原徒步起点从这开始,但现在已经开始往里修路了,大部分人会继续乘车,向日葵色板官方也在BESISAHAR换乘,一辆公交挤满了人,挤不进的就坐车顶。不过,坐在车顶,必须具备两项条件,一是技术好,因为在山路,车子在行进过程中不断摇晃,而且幅度不小,要当心被晃下来;二是心理素质,这车在山路上行走,一边就是靠着悬崖,下边是滚滚的河水,有时车轮离悬崖不到30CM,坐在车里都有心惊胆战,在车顶,没有一定的心理素质估计够呛。行至一半,又堵车了,那辆430的公交坏在路边,正好是拐弯路口,所有车不得都停下来。大家注意,在尼泊尔山区,公交的底盘比越野车的底盘要高得多,往往很多越野车过不去的,公交车反而能过,当然,这是指专门在山区里通行的公交车。有几位老外等不了啦,干脆背起包来走人,反正是来徒步的与向日葵色板官方同车的俄罗斯小妞干脆当起了模特就这样,向日葵色板官方折腾到晚上8点才到SYNGE,基本上旅店都没满了,顶着头灯找了一家住下,没热水洗澡,随便吃点东西,擦擦身体睡了,听了一晚的浪涛声,第二天早晨起来,才发现住在了河边。第二天的早餐,煮土豆加奶茶,配点自己带去的榨菜,心里觉得土豆含淀粉高,热量必然高,能应付徒步的消耗出发时的背负,毕竟是新驴,这种背负让我第一天就差点崩溃。胸前挂着小包和相机,大包在肩带紧紧贴着肩膀,整个负重都在肩和脖子上,大包腰带是松的,老驴一看就知道背负不对。刚出发时还是这么意气风发的样子。徒步开始,我的新伙伴--阿健,一路上多亏他照顾,才让我顺利完成大环徒步。看了这张照片,才明白为什么叫“驴友”。这大环线上,各个客栈的补给,都是这样人扛驴驮上去的。 前两天的路,都是这样山清水秀空气好,除了有时会闻到驴粪味,至少还是乡野的气味。没有城市中的喧嚣和汽车尾气的污染。向日葵色板官方几乎都是每天上午7点出发,下午2-5点到目的地。这是向日葵色板官方经过的第一个之字坡。大环线上,这种之字坡比比皆是,这种比较缓的坡走起来还不太费劲,后面有几个之字坡,走的差点让人崩溃。 前面山谷中的村庄是JAGAT,是大环线上第一个比较大的村镇。路上碰到去上学的学生,很大方地合影。尼泊尔虽然经济落后,但对教育十分重视,向日葵色板官方经过的地方,最好的房子基本上都是学校,而且全免费教学,学生统一着装,走出来看着都赏心悦目。这些学生上午10点上课,下午4点放学,每天往返需要走路2个多小时,真是很辛苦。但看他们,脸上都洋溢着笑容,很能感染人。阿建同志跟同学们在亲切交谈,尽管他的英语水平很差,但孩子们还是觉得他很帅,愿意交谈。在这山区里,一般都是几个村庄才一所学校,因此大多数孩子上学都得翻山越岭,一趟要一个多小时。到一JAGAT村口。这些村庄,除了日常农作外,大部分都兼营客栈,以接待越来越多的徒步者。一路上,村里的客栈大都很漂亮,而且干净,尤其是被鲜花装点,别有一番风味,让人流连。客栈的老板娘和她的孩子,看到他们向日葵色板官方照相,很友善地对着向日葵色板官方微笑,那孩子笑容中带着些羞涩,但都是那么真诚,我明白了,为什么那个写尼泊尔的书名叫《尼泊尔的微笑》,朴实的笑容确实打动了我。 过了JAGAT,路过的瀑布逐渐增多在这种山清水秀的地方徒步,真是一种享受辛苦的背夫。他们的背负能力真的很强大,背着这么重的东西,比大部分徒步者都快,而且基本上都穿着拖鞋。这两位的拖鞋算是很好的,穿人字拖走大环的背夫占大多数。而这种背负就是专门用来搬运石头用的。中午12点左右,我们到达CHAMCHE,只是简单地吃了路餐,便继续赶路了。走出村口约一公里后,向日葵色板官方发现河对岸也有一条路,而且徒步者明显比这边多,怀疑自己是否走错路。后来才知道,向日葵色板官方走的这条是新开的路,传说大环线要修公路,估计是真的。但为了保险起见,向日葵色板官方还是打算去走老路。向日葵色板官方返回CHAMCHE,在村里一个不起眼的地方找到了老路的路口。感觉这样的路才是真正徒步的线路,在公路上走算怎么回事呀。向日葵色板官方走的第一座铁索桥。在大环线上,这种铁索桥很多,走起来晃悠悠的。 向日葵色板官方还在桥上照相的时候,遇到了昨天同车前来的俄罗斯姑娘。她们本来没有背夫,后来感觉重装无法走完大环,昨晚临时在住宿的地方雇了村里的背夫,费用好像也比较低,一个背夫一天700卢比(约50多元人民币)。但如果要保险一些,还是跟当地旅行社雇用背夫,能订合同,不满意还可以投诉退款。天下驴友是一家,见面了自然很高兴。 这种路走起来有点费劲,落脚点不实在。 哥俩第一次合影。有飞流直下三千尺的感觉。我曾经在《中国国家地理》杂志上看到过这幅图,当时惊为天堂的徒步环境。现在,这座挺拔险峻的山峰拦腰被切了一段路,山体和植被完全被破坏,给这美丽的山谷添了一道永远无法弥补的伤疤。从理智上,我也知道山里的人要发展经济,改善生活,但看到这一幕,还是不自觉地感到心
旅行结束已经一个月了,我已深深爱上了在路上的感觉,在路上的每一天,接触的每一寸土地,每一个人都是那么值得纪念。 本人,自取名葡萄,80后女孩一枚,2013年3月22日深圳出发,骑行广东,海南,广西,越南,云南,西藏拉萨,共计骑行超过6000公里;徒步搭车尼泊尔,西藏阿里,新疆,甘肃,陕西,河南郑州,家乡为终点,共计搭车超过10000公里,旅行总旅程近20000公里,耗时四个多月,所有花费不过万元左右!旅行路线以图为例: 那段日子,在我的脑子里总有一个想法,就是趁着自己还年轻,自己还有能力去做一些现在还能做的事情,去和我魂牵梦绕的梦中圣地亲密接触,去实现自己未能实现的梦想,不给自己的人生留下遗憾。因为我明白真的是有许多事情如果现在不做,以后也许真的不会有机会可以这么潇洒说走就走,不被现实束缚,去追逐自己的梦!我热爱旅行,旅行之前的几天,我天天抱着兴奋与期待的心情去开始这趟远行,在乎的只是这种追寻的过程,在此次旅行之前,我2012年五月曾经骑单车走过川藏线,环过青海湖,也骑行过6000公里,曾经没有一点骑行经验的我居然可以做到首次出远门就可以走这么远,因而更见坚定了我的信心,我相信只要我想走,我就可以到达我想去的地方。我已经深深的享受在路上的过程,会更高兴认识每一个驴友,以及每一个驴友物背后的故事。我只是一个行者,也可以一直在路上,只是自己不会是一个人走在路上。我希望在未来,不管是一个人还是两个人,或者是一家人,都可以再路上。如果以后自己有孩子,我会带着孩子去旅行,让他们感受大自然的巨大魅力,让他更好的感受人间冷暖,更好的了解这个世界。2013年3月,刚刚过完年,我辞掉了原本不错的工作,刚好有之前的骑友周叔骑行经过深圳,于是向日葵色板官方一路结伴前行!周叔此次从浙江沿着海岸线一路到达深圳,于是我带周叔简简单单的逛了一下深圳,没有过多的准备,我们说走就走,也许自己喜欢的就是这样,向日葵色板官方两人从深圳湾口岸轮渡到珠海。正是开始了我们的边境线骑行。骑行是快乐的,自由的,无忧无虑的,我享受那种速度与激情,贪恋路上的风景。骑行也是辛苦的,这样的季节,这样炎热的天气,向日葵色板官方也付出了太多的汗水,每一天衣服都是湿了又干干了又湿,即便如此,我依旧享受这个过程。 我的座驾也就是美利达公爵550,去年曾带我走过川藏,青海湖,已经走过6000公里。这次出行我只是稍稍保养变上路了,结果没想到骑行第一天车架就断了,幸好周叔帮我用铁钉固定了一下,不过也就坚持用了一天,两侧车架全部断裂,幸好已到阳江,我换上了全新的车架,继续赶路。确没想三天爆胎三次,还好周叔是补胎高手,五分钟就帮我搞定。在广东边境的每一天几乎都下雨,向日葵色板官方怕热,索性就直接淋雨,哈哈!3月28日,向日葵色板官方到达海安镇,在这里轮渡到海口。一路吹着海风,享受着旅行的快乐。周叔55岁左右,是户外高手,酷爱骑行。去年曾经从上海318的零公里开始一路骑行至拉萨。到达海口之后,另外一个骑友小顾也到达了海口,向日葵色板官方一起参观了海口市博物馆,海南大学,然后向日葵色板官方三人结伴一起环海南岛。我们从东线出发到三亚。环岛第一天,天下起了大雨,下午的时候雨停了,向日葵色板官方三个出发了,环岛正式开始,向日葵色板官方在40多公里处的道班搭帐篷,有个养护公路的阿姨真的很热心,让向日葵色板官方在里面搭帐篷,还为我们提供了洗澡的地方,给向日葵色板官方好大的木瓜吃!幸福,这就是简单的幸福!在这里向日葵色板官方与大自然亲密接触,很多很多的青蛙在草坪上跳来跳去,真是听取蛙声一片。 旅行之乐,在于美景,在于遇人,在于发现,寻找那些向日葵色板官方未知的、好奇的,或者曾经拥有、却被时间淡忘的珍宝。而向日葵色板官方最先寻获的,往往是自己的贪心和不知足。在去博鳌博鳌那里逛了一下,风景美如画!路边种的都是大片大片的菠萝。到了这里才知道原来菠萝是这么长的,菠萝蜜又是这样长的。看来走万卷书不如走万里路,这话可是真的。呵呵。小顾还跑到地理摘了两个菠萝,向日葵色板官方带路上吃,超有意思啦! 这一路走来,路边种植的都是热带水果,来海南,就让向日葵色板官方变成吃货吧!海南就是水果的天堂,是吃货的天堂哦!路过一个椰子的集散站,3块钱一个椰子,这样的酷暑天气,这样的叶子对向日葵色板官方骑行者来说实在是好宝贝,好吃又解渴! 也许旅游对大部分人来说是到景点观光拍照,买纪念品。而对向日葵色板官方来说,骑行式和背包式的旅行却能获得更多,这样的旅行能带来更多的惊喜和冒险,同时也有机会接触当地的人,对当地的文化及风俗可以有更进一步的了解。旅行的日子越久,走的地方越多,纪念品就买的越少,甚至不喜欢去游客多的地方。慢慢才发现,原来最美的景点一直都是在路上!那碧波荡漾的海水,浩瀚无垠的天空,三亚也许是很多人的梦中圣地!因而吸引了一批又一批的游客来到这里,尤以俄罗斯人居多。但对我来说,也许是在深圳看海看多了,所以来这里并没有太大的感觉!向日葵色板官方从西线回到海口,一路沿海边顺风骑行,时速可以达到30km/h,一天向日葵色板官方骑行180公里,两天到达海口,却并没有拍过多的照片。来到海口,我把我的车子外胎和链条,飞轮全部换新,为下面的旅行作准备。环完海南岛之后,我在海口把自行车保养了一下,把有些不用的行李寄回了家,成功减负,为我接下来的行程做准备!由于在海口遇到台风,未能及时买到去广西北海的船票,所以在海口多待了一天,在邮政寄行李的时候遇到了骑友小杨(健身教练),小杨也是资深骑友,骑自行车好多年,对海口也非常熟悉,晚上他带我们沿着海口的海岸线骑行,感受海风带给向日葵色板官方的清爽。2013年4月7日,终于买上了去北海的船票,向日葵色板官方五个人同行踏上了前往北海的船,上了船才知道,船上有好多骑友与背包客,都是“同道中人”,大家聊的热火朝天。 4月8日早上,本想早起看日出呢,没想到天空却飘起了小雨,日出是看不到啦!向日葵色板官方结伴五个骑友一起出发,广西的旅行正是开始啦! 向日葵色板官方早上骑行来到传说中的北海银滩,还从来没有见过这么漂亮的沙滩,洁白、细腻的沙滩会泛出银光,这里海天相连,波涛滚滚,一望无际,令人如入仙境,心旷神怡,流连忘返。 在前往东兴的路上,向日葵色板官方遇到了加拿大骑友Darren, 同是骑友,大家都感觉无比亲切。经过沟通才晓得,Darren也是要去东兴的,他要经过东兴口岸到越南去,因而向日葵色板官方下午就结伴一起走啦!向日葵色板官方一起来到东兴,周叔骑行比较快,已经帮向日葵色板官方订好了房间。Darren的座驾,在深圳买的新的。 到东兴后,发现东兴有好多山地车专卖店,听说车子是从越南走私过来的,不晓得是真是假。不过看起来很不错,Darren要去车店买链条油,但是店家却不懂英文,我只好当翻译啦!到了店里跟老板聊了大半天,店老板特别佩服Darren的勇气和毅力。最后给了Darren一个很好的价格。老板还建议向日葵色板官方从越南北线走,那段路风景又漂亮,又可以体验异国风情。吃晚饭的时候,经过商量,我们几个骑友决定尽下地主之谊,请Darren吃晚餐。聊天才晓得,Darren今年50岁啦,一辈子也未婚未育。他是把房子车子都卖了,才出来自行车旅行。他说,自行车旅行能够更好的体验当地的风土人情,能够让你与大自然亲密接触,自行车旅行能够让他以最小的花销走最多的地方,带他到达他想去的每一个角落,还可以锻炼身体。他的目是自行车环游世界。在此之前,他已经从伦敦出发,骑行欧亚大陆来到中国,已经走过一万多公里啦!听他讲完,我们佩服的五体投地,不是每个驴友都能抛下一切去旅行的,这需要多么大的勇气和毅力呀! 能够认真地做自己喜欢的事情,当真是不可多得的幸福,一旦这样,向日葵色板官方便可以把一切令向日葵色板官方不安与恐惧的事情拒之门外,只要能够改变自己身边的一方小小天地,用执着的态度坚持不懈地耕耘它,便是肉眼凡胎如我的一切芸芸众生存在的理由、自信的来源,与坚定的依持。 4月10号一大早向日葵色板官方送DARREN从东兴口岸进了越南,但是向日葵色板官方都没有彼此的联系方式,就跟DARREN分开了!经过商量,我和周叔决定走越南北线,从东兴口岸入境,经过下龙湾,海防,河内,从中国河口出境。向日葵色板官方一拍即合,马上联系旅行社办了越南的证。证速度也快,只需要一天就可以办下来,费用400元。秦叔也让家人把护照顺丰了过来,但还是比我们晚了2天。我和周叔4月11号早上在东兴口岸兑换了越南盾,想着只在越南待10来天, 我自己兑换了900元的越南盾,就匆匆过海关啦!好黑的越南海关,每个关口都收钱,一共3个关口,一共收了150块人民币。结果到后来向日葵色板官方问了当地人才知道,这些钱根本不用给的。东兴与越南芒街只是相隔一条河,中国的手机在芒街也是可以使用。到越南第一件事就是换了手机卡,越南当地大部分人不会英文也不会中文,向日葵色板官方只好用手比划进行沟通。本想继续向前赶路,不料下起雨来,我跟周叔就找了一家家庭旅馆住下,环境还不错!住下之后,向日葵色板官方出去逛了下去寻找当地的美食,其实物价跟国内价格是差不多,一碗粉8-10元,水果也和国内价格差不多,并没有传说中的便宜。 向日葵色板官方早早的在芒街住下了,准备明天出发到下龙湾。晚上无聊,就把自己换的200多万越南盾拿来拍照发微博,之后就把money和手机都装在腰包里就睡觉啦!却不想,第二天早上起来,发现我的手机和200多万越南盾全部不见了。谁能料想这些东西会在这样的家庭旅馆自己丢失呢!这可是我10天的全部费用哦!难不成是昨天拿手机给老板看翻译,他瞄上了我的手机,还是房间内装有监控,向日葵色板官方不得而知。我急忙告诉周叔,他检查了一下他的东西都在,幸好我的sony微单在一个角落里充电,还在。没想到到越南第一天竟遇上这种事情,于是下楼找老板理论了半天,由于语言不通,老板用干巴巴的中文说向日葵色板官方没关窗户,是向日葵色板官方自己的责任。说是只愿意赔偿我200RMB, 要向日葵色板官方不要报警,说报警一分钱也没有。在这样的异国他乡,向日葵色板官方也不晓得该怎么办啦!出去逛了一圈,找到当地的派出所,虽然这里和中国只有一河之隔,却不想没一个人懂中文或英文。晕!只好作罢!谁叫咱在国外呢,想来如果这种事情在国内也很难说个清楚。幸好国内手机在这里还有信号,我就借来周叔的手机,装上自己的电话卡,给准备到越南来的秦叔打了电话,让他帮我多换一千左右的越南盾。要不还真不小的接下来怎么走。当天既然没走成,我和周叔只好去压马路啦!却不想在逛街再一次遇到加拿大骑友Darren,本以为他已经走了好几天了,没想到他也还在这里。好兴奋,向日葵色板官方来了一个大大的拥抱,这这种情况下,真是不是亲人胜似亲人。向日葵色板官方一起买水果吃,Darren买的好甜好甜的菠萝蜜,顿时洗去了我丢失手机的阴影。向日葵色板官方一起吃的晚餐,越南粉。挺特别的,可以加好多青菜,蛮好吃!在这里还认识了一个意大利驴友。大家都聊得很high。向日葵色板官方约好第二天一起等到秦叔再一起出发前往下龙湾。 旅行的美感,往往存在于和向日葵色板官方平常生活犹如遥隔天海般的巨大反差之中。那些快乐的,悲伤的,都成为向日葵色板官方永久的记忆。4月13日早上,我,周叔,Darren一起去口岸接了秦叔,大家一起上路了。秦叔已经60多岁啦!他是一位只是渊博的学者,喜欢专研政治。他也是资深自行车爱好者, 平时也加入自行车俱乐部,他的目是骑行穿越西藏。 向日葵色板官方沿着越南海岸线一路南下,风景秀丽无比,山水田园,想着当地人的生活无不惬意。向日葵色板官方骑行两天就到达了下龙湾,一个被称为“水上桂林”的地方。风景确实美如画,真正置身其中,你才真正能体会到什么叫做身在画中游。越南粉 向日葵色板官方沿着越南海岸线一路南下,风景秀丽无比,山水田园,想着当地人的生活无不惬意。向日葵色板官方骑行两天就到达了下龙湾,一个被称为“水上桂林”的地方。风景确实美如画,真正置身其中,你才真正能体会到什么叫做身在画中游。下龙湾海景 沿着下龙湾一路往东,沿途都是喀斯特地貌。很美。由于中午天气太热,向日葵色板官方就在路边休息,顺便把洗的未干的衣服拿出来晾一晾。听秦叔讲了好多共济会的事情。想不到他居然会研究如此多的东西,学问如此之大,不亚于名校大学教授级别。佩服啊!突然发现越南的女人都非常的能干,一个普通妇女都能干这么重的活,也许都是生活所迫吧! 晚上到达下龙湾,我和Darren约好去逛一下市区。海防的夜晚宁静,清凉。非常安静的美!我和Darren还在广场看到一尊雕像,Darren非说是菩萨,而对向日葵色板官方亚洲人来说,一看便知那时一名将军。海防的夜晚是那么的静谧! 夜色中的海防,有小情侣在拍照!还有越南非常好吃的甜品饮料,一份折合人民币三块钱,我和Darren一人吃了两份!好好吃!怀念中! 因为这尊雕塑,向日葵色板官方僵持半天,向日葵色板官方问了路边的一对小夫妻,他们告诉向日葵色板官方说那是他们那里很有名的一名将军,是她保卫着当地人民的幸福生活。不聊天不晓得,这对小夫妻女孩是中国广西人,之前在越南教中文,男孩是他的学生,男孩对女孩展开疯狂追求,于是就有了这么一段美好浪漫的跨国恋。 4月16日,向日葵色板官方从海防骑行到越南首都河内。路上来往的车辆挺多的,下午向日葵色板官方早早的就到达了河内。河内的发展感觉跟中国的二三线城市差不多,特别多的电动车和摩托车。在闹市区,也有特别多的欧洲的背包客汇聚于此,热闹非凡!这里是越南首都的志性地表,相当于中国的天安门级别的! 越南的很多古建筑,寺庙都跟来源于中国,因而在那里能够看到很多的汉字诗文。 在越南休整了一天,向日葵色板官方就依依不舍的跟Darren告别,因为他要往南骑行到南越,而向日葵色板官方却要往北回国。从河内往回走的路上,风光依旧秀丽无比,时而有起伏比较大的长坡,这些对我来说都没问,但秦叔却有些吃不消,一爬坡就大喘气。我只好在后面等他。没想到周叔骑行太快,竟然与向日葵色板官方走散了。在这样的异国他乡,周叔没有手机,没有地图,不懂越语,向日葵色板官方就此失去了联系。 就这样,后来的三天回国路,我担心了周叔整整三天三夜,晚上也睡不好觉,不晓得周叔自己能不能回去。我跟秦叔每天都在路边休息等周叔两个小时,却依旧没能等到他!在越南的最后一天, 秦叔非要请我吃饭,瞧瞧向日葵色板官方的最后一餐,还挺丰盛的,但是量太大了,向日葵色板官方只好打包走! 怀着忐忑不安的心情,向日葵色板官方终于来到了越南老街,而对岸就是云南河口啦!好兴奋,终于回国来,感觉无比亲切,还是中国好! 一到中国,我就迫不及待的给周叔打电话,但是还是一直打不通,想来他应该还在越南吧!到了河口,向日葵色板官方把剩余没用的越南盾换回人民币,便继续往前赶路啦!本以为往前20公里左右就有住的地方,但是向日葵色板官方一直沿着边境线骑行,河对岸就是越南,前不着村,后不着店,眼看天就黑了下来,向日葵色板官方只好打着手电继续赶路,越往前走我的心里越发忐忑不安,秦叔说这一带是走私贩毒特别严重的地带,这么晚骑行很不安全。我的心里害怕极了。幸好路上来往还有一些大货车,我的心里稍许平静了一些。走了好久,漆黑一片,在这伸手不见五指的黑夜,我和秦叔只好硬着头皮往前走,值得安慰的是秦叔带的“护身工具”挺齐全的,我一直嘲笑他带那么多的东西,现在想来说不定还真有用到的时候。秦叔带的锁链一直拴在腰间,手里还握着手电电警棍。他让我不要骑得离他太远。这个时刻,我也只有心理默念,祈祷向日葵色板官方的车子千万不要出问啊! 又过了好久,向日葵色板官方到了一个兵站,兵哥哥告诉向日葵色板官方前面5公里左右就有住的地方了,向日葵色板官方的心才算平静了下来。 到国内两天之后,周叔的电话终于打通了,原来他真的走错了路,翻了两座大山,每天都好几罐8264,一路往北,终于到达了中国的一个小边境口岸,我悬着的心终于松下来了!与小杨和小顾联系上之后,向日葵色板官方大家决定在元阳汇合。然后一起去西双版纳。4月21日,向日葵色板官方开始前往元阳方向的骑行,由于都是盘山公里,秦叔可能有些吃不消,他说向日葵色板官方跟小杨小顾汇合之后,就向日葵色板官方三个一起骑,他速度太慢了,要向日葵色板官方不要等他。他自己单骑能力很强的。向日葵色板官方顺理成章的跟他们在元阳汇合。卖香蕉的阿姨!小顾也要感受下背篓的分量!瞧瞧小杨,肌肉还是挺发达的呢!([]

There are many like-minded asking me about it. I now present this thread to briefly tell everybody about my journey.The starting point of this traverse was from the highest peak of the western part of the Tibetan plateau, Jieshan Daban, and the day was April 20, 2010.I was heading eastward passing Bungdag Co, Yanghu Co, Rola Co, and Kangzhagri Mountain, which crossed over the desolate region from west to east. The journey continued northward to enter the unpopulated area of Altun Mountains, through Hoh Xil Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Whale lake, ..., finally met some people by the Aqqikkol Hu and then arrived in Huatugou by vehicle three days later and that day was July 5. It had been 77 days in total. I had been all alone 74 days after leaving Jieshan Daban until arriving inAqqikkol Hu, which was about 1400km and about four months.[The Great Chang Tang] In Tibetan, "Chang Tang" means northern empty wilderness while narrowly, means unpopulated region in northern part of Tibet. However, it actually indiCATes all of the no man's land in northern. The great Chang Tang includes desolate places in Northern Tibet, Hoh Xil, Alun Mountains, and Kunlun Mountains, which are interconnected to form the unique and super empty wilderness in the world. Only because Hoh Xil is the most known name, most people just think this vast land is equivalent to Hoh Xil. In reality, Hoh Xil is only a small piece of the Great Chang Tang both administratively and geologically. The Great Chang Tang, the last land to chase your freedom and dream.The route that I traversed ForeplayI arrived in Tibet in the early March, a couple of troubles bothered me. The brand new plug got its positive and negative wrongly connected; the rivets of my rucksack eASIly got broken from now and again; and a multi-functional charger got damaged and so on. Riding my bike to Ngari for warming up of this journey, lost my rucksack but later got it back; lost my camera bag and got it back later again, and finally lost a big bicycle pannier in the street of Gyangze town under the eyes of police, including clothes, solar panel and so on.Without much choice, I returned to Lhasa to adjust all the stuff I would need in the wilderness. Then I begged some luck by going to Nyingchi to enjoy the blossoms of peach trees and to take a hot spring bath. I even had the privilege to enjoy time with ten girls in the hot spring. I felt my bad luck had all gone and then returned to Lhasa again to prepare going to Ngari. I did not expect that I was cheated on by some hustler and lost some money and delayed my schedule for a week. I had to find a car myself quickly to Nagri. However, I lost the tool for fast-parting my rear wheel on my way to Nagri, where was a remote area in Tibet and nowhere to buy the tool. Even if there was one in Lhasa it would take at least ten days for a special delivery service. I was lucky that my mate Duola asked a driver to bring the tool for me from Lhasa. I thought there should be no more nightmare like this but the nozzle of my brand new multi-fuel stove was broken. The next day I tried everywhere to weld them back together. The first three shops could not do the welding for copper. The fourth one said they could do it but could not guarantee a sUCCess. The engineer said it would be ten Chinese yuans if it was a success. I agreed. Just in seconds, my nozzle became crap in a flash of lightening. I was so upset. Again, Duola helped me by bringing her own MSR oil stove and Dingding's sleeping bag to Nagri. That was already April 16 and I did not have much time to waste. The following day I found a vehicle heading to Jieshan Daban.The sand storm over Yarlung Zangbo RiverA lonely peach tree blossoming in Yarlung Zangbo Grand CanyonNatural hot spring in wild, me singing and drinking (photo by a friend of mine) Day 1(April 20), 16km, Camping 5192mIt was a truck with a full load of iron wastes, arriving in Jieshan Daban at 6'o clock in the morning. It was still night and extremely cold and dark. Driver was not bothered to pop his head out of the driving cab. I climbed up on the top of the iron wastes, taking my bicycle down. In a hurry, I punched my old water bag. Fortunately I had another MSR water bag given by a friend of mine otherwise I would definitely fail without even starting my journey. For the first time for me to set up the brand new tent in strong, cold winds. It would be impossible to do so if the tent was not a whole piece. Extremely cold outside, about -15C, might be lower than that, I put my head into the sleeping bag but was nearly suffocated to death, honestly. The smell of Dingding's sleeping bag was, lol, so extraordinary. I woke up around 11 o'clock. There were still strong winds outside so that I had to use my bodyweight to keep the tent in place. At the time when I just started to cook and eat, four patrolling soldiers approached me. To their surprise someone, in this season, camped in Jieshan Daban. I was so nervous and afraid they were the people to block my journey because I was caught and deported from the desolate land last year. Luckily the four soldiers did not know my destination and were very kind to me. After they left, I immediately packed my stuff and pushed my bike into the depths of the unpopulated area just in case anything unexpected happened.The bike was very heavy due to the provisions and hard to control. There was even a quite small hill that I had to remove my bike panniers to get over it. This really struck me because this happened even the path was still the hardship one at the moment and I could not imagine what I would do once I entered the uncertain, endless wilderness. Until now I had not met anyone, even the nomadic pastoralists. I remembered there were quite a few of them roaming at the edge of the northern Tibetan plateau last year. All of these indicated it was not the good pasture season in such low temperature and strong winds. Around 16km there was a sheep cote, where I passed it last year, east of Lungmu Co. I was exhausted at this point so that I decided to camp in here and to rest my head. After arranging tent everything I went out to look for the wetland discovered by Duola and Liumeng last year. I was determined to find it.There were many hot springs in the wetland which were underground water with a constant temperature. The wetland therefore became an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such harsh weather, which was the very unique land feature of terrain in this over 5200m highland.Perpetual snow in the valley blown to corn shape by strong windsThis wetland was discovered by Duola and Liumeng. The workers at a nearby mine did not know it and I too missed it last yearUnderground water with a constant temperature, an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such icy weather 感谢大伙儿支持和加分,不一一回复了。特别感谢多啦,希望能有机会一起喝酒吃肉。 Day 2 (April 21), 0km, Camping5192mBlustering gale all night, up and down like ocean waves. The next day rather than continuing to travel, I stayed inside the sheep cote, hesitating and pondering over. Indeed, there were so many problems before this journey;I did not have sufficient physical preparation;the load had already reached its limitation; I still coughed a lot;the weather was so extreme and cold. All in all, I did not think this journey was well prepared and I did not have confidence in completing this journey mentally and physically. To do, or not to do, it was the question. Similarly I did not have confidence in my facilities, not knowing whether all of them would work functionally or not. The fact was one of the rivets got broken again and the front rack came loose. In the afternoon, I replaced all the rivets of the panniers with screws I had prepared before. This was an excellent job I had done which gave me no further troubles throughout my whole journey. I also re-adjusted the front rack. However I did not think it would definitely all right because I did not have a tool to do it. When the darkness descended,I made up my mind to continue my journey, which, of course, was not beyond any imagination. Orchid-like weedsSmall springs everywhere, clear and chillyA thin layer of ice covering the fresh spring water The sheep cote, it was the door under the sleeping bag, which was in the same place as last year, everything looked like yesterdayThe wetland at duskLungmu Co at dusk. You could hear the gigantic sound of wind if the picture had a sound Day 3 (April 22), 52.4km, Camping 5145mGot up in the morning, could not put everything into the bags. Without much choice I had to throw away three portions of tsampa, elbow pads, and crampons. Following the road of the lead-zinicmine I found the side path to enter the wilderness, which was on the riverbed and very hard to see. I missed this side path last year so that I had to take a short cut into the wilderness directly then. That was why I had taken extra care to find the side path. The following journey was to get over a big hill, which lay 5275m above sea level and was the highest point of my whole journey. Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I passed the side path leading to Orba Co and started a journey which was complete strange to me. I ate a piece of pilot breads, which was frozen like rocks so that I had to use my spade to crush it. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I had pushed plus rode my bicycle for about 32 km. I reckoned I should have been able to double this if I did no carry such heavy load. The wind became stronger and stronger. I opened the parasail kits and tested it. The result was far beyond what I expected. With the aid of the strong wind I was just like flying over the wilderness. After 8 o'clock in the evening, I started to observe the water Source and to get ready to camp. Map showed there were successive springs along the path and assembled to puddles. But I had overestimated the water source here in this land and in this season there were endless wilderness inside the valley, where I could not see a single drop of water. As it became darker and darker, I felt a little bit nervous which resulted in three spokes of the parasail broken and became a useless rubbish. Anyway, it helped me to move forward 20km more which benefited me a lot later on. When time approached 9.30 pm, it was almost completely dark. I had to lie my bike on the ground and went on to try to find water on the north side of the valley. This was a wide and flat sandy land, where I could not see any ditches there and further was complete darkness. I returned to get my GPS to look up the contours and found the south part of the valley was closer to a hill so I took the way. Finally I found a piece of ice in a ditch. I smashed about 20litre of ice. The ice was quite shallow scattered with sheep poo. On my way back, my eyes were hurt by strong winds, which got me a couple of days to recover. It was nearly 23 o'clock after I set up the tent. It also took about 40 mins to melt the ice. I was so tired and my appetite was completely spoiled. I then had a little bit of milk. I had never expected thing would go like this, it was so distressing. Streams along the path, ice everywhereThe river flew into Matou Hu, in whose north part there was a satellite lake, a wonderful ice-skating court It took 40mins to melt the ice in midnight Day 4 (April 23), 31km, Camping 5028mA cloudy day with gusts. From now and again, hails chased me from behind. Sunny spell. Heavy sandy land made me have to push my bike. At 3pm, I arrived at Luxing Hu, where there was a house made of clay. This was the last permanent building of my journey. Last year, Duola and Liumeng once lived in this house for three days without meeting anybody. It seemed it was the same but the truck parking in front of the house made me worry about. I went to the sheep cote first to check over, where there were only a few lambs following me everywhere I went later on. This made me feel warm in my heart. I observed farther places using my binoculars but could not see any people or sheeps. After making sure there were no people around I opened the locked door using a screwdriver. The living room was very clean. There were two boxes of beverages on the ground and a string of cured lamb legs hanging over in the interior room. A pot of water was on the top of the stove, lukewarm, which indicated the host must be not far away from his home. I filled up my water bag and left the house. I also put the screws back to the door in order not to leave any trace of my visiting. I then took a spanner from the toolbox of the truck, which gave me great help for the rest of the journey.I left the house as quickly as possible. After last year's experience, the nomadic pastoralists were the last people I wanted to meet. A few hundred meters away from the house, the vehicle traces were fading fast. Even downhill, I had to push rather than to ride because of the heavy loose sand. From the route point of view, only after Luxing Hu it was the real unpopulated land. After many days, I thought of the lamb legs from time to time. It was pity that I then had plenty of provisions and the bike was too heavy to carry anything more. Continue to melt the ice under the morning sunshine, all of the sheep poo had been removed carefullyCamping site, the little hill over there was the place where I got the ice last nightThe house by the Luxing Hu, empty, the last permanent building I saw throughout my journeyDay 5 (April 24), 19.8km, Camping 4951mSet off at 10.30 in the morning, the weather was similar to yesterday. Probably this road was the high plain or somewhere the wind passed so that it was so windy. The average wind speed was degree 6 but could reach degree 9 in the blick of an eye. The road was still full of sand and very heavy to walk on it. My eyes became worse under such harsh weather. About three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw something in my right, looked like antenna. I went closer to see what it was and found out it was an iron tower (the triangulation station). In 1970s, a joint team from Chinese three military regiments entered this area doing research. They have left a lot of triangulation stations and benchmarks, which I had the priviledge to see them today.At dusk, I approached to a spring by the Bungdag Co, which flew into the frozon lake. The sand and soil, brought by the strong wind, scattered on the surface of the ice all over the lake. There were so many cracks around the icey surface of the lake. I geussed it must be caused by the springs under the water rather than by melted ice. In the west of the Bungdag Co was the side path leading to Keriya Pass, where a SUV could reach directly. I had looked out any vehicle Tracks but failed. The cloudy sky started to snow. I set up the tent comfortably because I knew that I was safe having such a sweet spring beside me.Triangulation station erected by scientists from the joint research team on Chang Tang of three military regiments in 1971[size=+0]The gap between water and ice in Bungdag Co, I guessed there must be some springs under the lakeThe storm just above the ground, a chaotic darkness[size=+0]Icy Bungdag Co,one of the four biggest lakes in Northern Tibet, wild ducks flying over this vastness and lonenessSnowing at any time, should not happen so frequently like this in this seasonDay 6 (April 25), 4.3km, Camping 5002mWeathering landforms everywhere around this area. Spongy volcanic rocks could be found easily. I pushed my bike turning around a small hill, seeing a big river, the Yinshui He, flowing from Orba Co into Bungdag Co, which I had been to its upstream last year. It was also a passage for animal migration. The downstream of the river was extremely wide and broad. The thickess of the ice layer could reach one meter with the main stem in the middle course of the river, very deep. There were a few springs along the river, sweet and clear.I only went forward a little bit more than 4km but I had walked more than 20km for finding my way. It was not possible to cross the main stem, let alone the north bank of Bungdad Co. What I could only do was to try to find a shallow place to cross. But the southern area was a even larger piece of wetland and forced the road turn towards west. I spent a couple of hours but failed to find a good point to cross the river. In the afternoon, I decided to follow the edge of the wetland. When I reached the hill foot, the wetland finally disappeared. Around this area, there were clearly volcanic feature of terrain and I even found traces of pasturing and cairns made from volcanic rock.Here was the last pasturing trace I found throughout my journey, I guessed it was a summer pasture area. After this, there was no clear sign of human activities in this vast wilderness. I had been looking for my ways until it was dark. I made up my mind where to go TOMOrrow. The terrain here looked like Yardang landforms, as well as volcanic landforms The Yinshui He river from Orba CoSprings scattered all over the river bank, painted green by lovely algaeThe river was very deep. The mixture of green and amber colour showed the sand and mud carried by the melted iceThick layer of ice, sunken surface caused by strong gustsThe south course of the Yinshui He, countless small streams. To the right was the wetlandLooking for ways in the east, a trace of pasturing and the cairn made from spongy volcanic rocksMy camp, opposite to the hillDay 7 (April 26), 11km, Camping 5009mI moved forward to the direction I found yesterday, turning around the wetland and walking toward east. At 2pm, I was blocked by the zigzag Yinshui He again and I had no choice but to cross it. The river was about 700m wide, covered by ice which appeared very different. The hanging ice, the folding ice, the piling-up ice, the icy puddle, and the sleet were everywhere along the river bank. Having noticed all of these, I reckoned the river would be receding at dusk, which was why there were so many different shapes and forms of ice. I put my slipper on, going into the main stream of the river. I found there were at least three different courses of the river, the thickness of the surface ice varied and the river water reached above my knees. I sighed there would be no way back once I crossed this river. There are many ways in one's life too, you can only take it once and you will no long have the courage to repeat it.I pushed the bike crossing the river. Some of the ice was a bit soft, jamming the tyres so that I had to use my feet to break them first. Some of the ice was a bit thick but with half-melted underneath, sticking the the bike completely, some of the ice was half-water half-ice with a sandy riverbed, which was really hard to pass. I had to remove all of the panniers at the last stage of the crossing. I spent the whole four hours to cross the river, my legs got many bloody cuts. At 6pm, the surface ice was almost disappeared completely, the river level rapidly rising to a chaotic status. I thought if I hesitated a little bit at that time, I could not have the courage to cross this river under such circumstances. The river bank was unimaginably sandy and was quite steep. I had to unloaded the panniers again to reach the top of the bank. By the time of sunset, the weather became exceptionally good. The sunlight from the descending sun, the blue sky, the faint moon, .... I liked such a colorful and peaceful Chang Tang and very much enjoyed my camp and myself bathed in such beautiful colour.The ice like this was very thin and suspended, far away from the main stemHard surface with half-melted underneath, the soft sand at the botton was most scaryThe ice like this could easily jam the wheels, hard to get it outI had to unload the panniersChaotic water and terrible hails turned up in no timeThe Chang Tang at the moment liked it used to be,a mixture of cold and warm tones under the golden setting sun Day 8 (April 27), 14.6km, Camping 5112mLast night, I forgot to bring in the odometer, which was out of order due to the coldness in midnight. Since then I used GPS to check the mileage. The digital thermometer was no longer working. I had to use mercury thermometer to collect data. Night temperatures were basically between –15℃—–20℃ while the temperature inside my tent was about –10℃. The advantage of the integrated tent was that it limited the ventilation so to keep warm inside. However, it got clearly disadvantage of heavy condensation and dew. Every morning, there was plenty of frost inside the tent so that I had to put my hood on First Before fully getting dressed. The winds in Chang Tang finally became consistent with the pattern I had researched the other day no or very tiny wind in the morning, strong wind started after 2pm, and then at around 8pm its strength was reduced again. The accuracy of this prediction was about 80%.The road was very bad today. I walked whole afternoon in an ancient riverbed and it was so difficult that I had to use all of my strengths to move a small step forward and then to stop to breath, slower than a snail. After five hours' struggling, my eyes got wet when I saw the grassy river bank. Finally! The nightmare was over.Cold and clear morningHeavy morning condensation in the interior, a lot of frost to clearSuch dawning sunlight indicated a cloudy day ahead Day 9 (April 28), 18km, 5072mIn the morning I entered a range of sandy roads which were so terrible. The solar panel specially designed for GPS got short circuited. After checking it was found to be the diode got damaged. Luckily I got a replacement. Because the GPS was exclusively supplied by a solar panel so that it was no longer a problem for the power supplement of GPS. In a period of 70 days, I did replace the battery once, which saved me a lot of alkaline batteries. I did have another solar panel of 5.4 W which was used specifically for 7.5V Camera, DV and other digital facilities. Unlike water, I had never been short of power.At 7pm in the evening, I arrived at Pur Co. The surface of this lake was very odd the ice by the river bank rose and the river bank was broken, I reckoned that was due to the strong winds. The ice there was mingled with something yellow, could be the stain of alkali. There were many wild yaks on the other side of the lake. There could be two brown bears but I could not be for certain. On the east side of the lake, there was a peninsula leading to the centre of the lake. I camped just opposite to the peninsula. At night , I smashed the ice to get drinking water, which tasted alkali. For the first time I cooked the cereals, which was brought completely by accident. This was just because I found there was a little bit of extra space when I was in Nagri packing the stuff for this journey so that I bought two packs of cereals. It tasted disgusting, probably there was too much alkali in the water. I threw away half of it. Later I realised that probably I subconsciously felt that the provisions was so heavy. I would rather make it lighter at any cost.Dry all my stuff in the morning sun, a routine matterA faint dusk in Pur CoThe river bank pushed up by ice and opened like zipper by gustsThe pushed up surface of the iceThe place where I got my drinking water, a thin layer of ice behind the ablation corns The moment just before sun set, glittering Pur Co, nothing was the same差点儿没找到俺自己的帖子,原来变色了。多谢各位鼓励。 Day 10 (April 29), 16km, Camping 5141mIn the morning, I walked around the north bank of the Pur Co, where it were continuous ups and downs sprinkled with light yellow sprouts across the sparse grassland. The wild yaks clustered into small groups. All of a sudden, there was a group of five of them running towards me, blowing a huge cloud of dust with the power of thunderbolts,I believed that anyone who did not know the characters of the wild yaks must be frightened to death under such circumstances. The fact was the wild yaks in groups never injured people. Rushing to you just to show you its territory. When they approached people at certain distance, they would turn sharply and run away, and then stopped somewhere high to stare at you. You can not imagine that the wild yaks were very cautious animals compared with its almost one ton of weight. Their first reaction, when meeting people, was to raise their tails, the front hooves rubbing against the ground, the horns pointing forward, the eyes redden, and the long body hair shaking, all of which showed their determination to fight.This was the warning sign that you should retreat. However, you should realise that this was only a gesture that they were afraid of you and wanted to scare you away. The thing was that if you were not afraid of them and moved forward, they would run away in no time. There were only some mad yaks attacking people, which was really rare to happen. In Chang Tang, an experienced driver know that it is very dangerous to pass directly from two or three lonely wild yaks. They always tried to avoid confronting them directly. If this was not possible, they would lit a cigarette, smoking, to wait until the yaks walked away themselves. This was because the wild yaks really could attack vehicles, which was not completely rumors. I once asked them why I had not been attacked. They told me that because my bike was so small they would not be bothered to attack it. My own experience was that approaching a wild yak very slowly, do not look into its eyes, and ignored what it was doing. As long as it moved forward a little bit, just stop and give the yaks a little bit of time to think. Because if you forced the yak, it could be themost dangerous animal in the world and nothing could stop them killing. Even a gunshot could not kill it but only left a small hole in its skin. In the past, the nomads living near this land would use yaks' skin as chopping board which was very much endurable. At noon, I lost my balacLAVA, which was brand new and I had never used it once. I could not be bothered to go back tofind it. This resulted in that I had to have my fleece hat day and night in the rest of my journey, which did not provide fully protection from the sun in the plateau. But somehow I was all right, perhaps because my skin is similar to those of yaks, lol. At around half past one, I found a deserted Jeep, upside down. I felt it could be there for years and it could be the vehicle of someillegal HUNTERs. Nowadays, we have wildlife conservation reserves in Chang Tang and the animals here are well protected. However, some people kills the wild yaks to sell them as the domestic yak's meat. In general, it is worth 10,000 Chinese yuans for a single wild yak. Therefore many people take the risk to make money. They often enter the unpopulated areas to hunt and their activities can reach 200 km in diameter. This is why the wild yaks in the deep wilderness are less afraid of people than thoseat the boundaries of the Chang Tang region.There once happened that a wild yak mother revenged its baby's murder in the Altun mountains. Its horns pierced the killer's chest and held his body over its head for more than ten days, which was very touching.Around 3pm, I walked out of the Pur basin. The next point was Hong Shan Daban and then it was the Yueya Hu by the Toze Gangri. At this time I found a vehicle track from south to north. I checked over but could not find the way where they had gone. I took my map, GPS, and compass, climbing up a small hill to estimate the locations of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30), 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evaluate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for? The pregnant female chirus in migration, probably heading to Heishi Beihu to give birth([]
加蓬位于中部非洲的大西洋海岸。赤道穿越,为赤道多雨气候,国土面积的85%为热带雨林所覆盖。它有3个截然不同的自然地理分区:沿海平原(范围在离海岸20到300公里之间),山区(利伯维尔东北方的Cristal山脉,中部的Chaillu Massif山脉,其最高处在lbounDJI山的顶峰,1575米)和东部的稀树大草原。沿海平原构成了世界野生动物基金会的大西洋赤道森林带中生态区域的一大部分,还包含了多片位于中部非洲的红树林,其相当一部分分布在与赤道几内亚交界的穆尼河河口处。加蓬(法语:République Gabonaise)是位于非洲中西部的一个国家。其西面是几内亚湾、西北是赤道几内亚、北面是喀麦隆、东面和南面由刚果共和国包围。国土面积大概是27万平方千米,估计人口有150万人。首都和最大城市是利伯维尔。加蓬的经济比其周围的国家繁荣的多,他的人均国民收入是撒哈拉以南非洲平均水平的4倍。这很大程度上要归功于他的海上石油生产。加蓬在1975年到1995年期间是石油输出国组织的正式成员。他是锰、铁和木材的出口国。加蓬最大的河流是奥果韦河,长1200公里。加蓬有3处喀斯特地貌区,几百个洞穴布满在白云石和石灰石上,如Lastoursvil le,Lebamba,Bongolo以及Kessipougou等。许多洞穴至今还没有被人探索过。一个国家地理探险队在08年夏天调查了这些岩洞并把它们记录下来。加蓬同样以对保护自然环境所作出的努力而闻名。2002年,加蓬总统奥马尔·班戈·奥迪巴指定其国土不低于11%的面积作为国家公园的一部分(总共有13个国家公园),是世界上最大的自然公园之一,使加蓬成为了未来重点生态旅游目的地之一。自然资源包括:石油、镁矿、铁矿、黄金矿、铀矿和森林资源 。人口20余万的让蒂尔,是加蓬的第一大港口和重要矿业城市。让蒂尔原称伊益泽,后被葡萄牙航海家洛波·贡萨尔夫发现,便易名为贡萨尔夫。1873年被法国占领。1900年左右,许多欧洲人和周围地区的非洲人来到这里,逐渐形成了一座城市,并以前法属赤道非洲总督让蒂尔的名字命名这个海港。1956年法属赤道非洲石油公司在让蒂尔地区发现两处油田:60年代在这里又发现了一系列海上油田。70年代,石油产量猛增,使加蓬进入非洲著名的产油国行列,让蒂尔亦逐渐成为加蓬的“经济中心”。加蓬最主要的经济活动,石油的开发和提炼,木材的加工和出口,均集中在这里。加蓬90%的石油从这里出口。世界第二胶合板厂——加蓬林业公司胶合板厂也建在让蒂尔,该厂向日葵视频色版下载一半以上远销欧洲及美国、加拿大、日本等国。我是一名中石化员工,2008年9月,因我所在的中方公司与加蓬石油公司有合作项目,我才有机会来到非洲加蓬国,在让蒂尔周边地区进行了,为期五个多月的石油地震勘探工作。回国前在让蒂尔市区休整期间(就两天),逮到机会就和同事一起去了海边,感受了一下异国风情的海滨浴场,可惜时间紧没能下海游一场。 美女图片在44楼 让蒂尔港(Port-Gentil)是加蓬的第二大城市和主要海港,也是该国的石油和木材工业中心,1993年估计人口80,000。让蒂尔港位于奥果韦河河口的一个近岸岛屿(Mandji),但该岛附近大陆都是森林地区,没有桥梁连接两地。该城由法国人在19世纪建立,以殖民地长官埃米尔·让蒂尔的名字命名。 浴场的这个区域很安静,设施比较高档,一眼就能看出是属于白人区。。。 一个人安静地躺在那儿,晒着日光浴。。。。。 蓝天与白云,海水与沙滩,令人心旷神怡的地方。。。。 浴场很大,还设有吧台、餐饮区、休闲区;晚上还有演唱舞台,供游人自娱自乐,黑人的舞技乐感很棒,可以想象那情景很嗨的。。。 ([]
