这是6个女人的旅行,自从2012年6个女人来了趟缅甸之旅后,心就越来越野,胆子也越来越大。一年忙碌后,到了年底,突然发现去美国的机票好便宜,就一拍即合决定去美西自驾。因为其中三人去年4月已经去美西自驾一次,所以有点犹豫,想起电影西雅图夜未眠,心血来潮就把西雅图加进去,然后又发现西雅图是去阿拉斯加的门户,于是就决定继续向北,去阿拉斯加看极光。 订票订房订车,不到两周6个女人就起程了,三个女人一台戏,六个女人出行注定是一场热闹之旅。 终于到了要出发的日子,因为6个女人,两个有2-3年驾龄,两个今年刚买车,一个有照不会开,一个连驾照都没有,所以决定只租一台车,如此一来都没开过大车,就想租个小点的商务车,这样就担心行李舱放不下6件大行李,于是出发前手忙脚乱的拼箱子,争取只带4个大箱子,于是办公室里被我们搞的一片大乱。去不成又心有不甘的男同事,不时在旁边打击着向日葵色板官方,比如阿拉斯加自驾冰雪路很危险之类的。但心已经飞走的女人们虽然内心不安,却都被激动的情绪冲的根本听不进去。 中午大家在楼下的餐厅聚餐吃了火锅,办公室所有人把向日葵色板官方送到楼下,当时嘴上都没说什么,但总感觉送行有点过于隆重,有点像十送红军的感觉,搞的好像多久回不来似的。毕竟阿拉斯加实在太遥远了,虽然去阿拉斯加看极光是向日葵色板官方的人生愿景,可是这么快就要实现,总觉得有那么点不真实。 机场等待出发,6个女人要拍个出发的合影,自己先拍了一张,觉得还是应该找个人拍合影,于是抓了个旁边候机的帅哥,那帅哥早已注意到这帮疯疯癫癫的女人,一看找他很高兴的过来帮忙,一副早就等着召唤的模样,拍一张还热情的说,看看行不行,不行在给你们拍,看了6个女人走到哪里都很引人注目呢。 微信发出去,立即有回复,你们去哪里?怎么还未成年人禁止入内呀。看看思想不纯洁不是,不就是没注意站到吸烟室门前了吗? 香港中转,在候机室品品咖啡吃吃蛋糕,说实话香港的点心味道真心不错。国泰航空的餐饮还是不错了,冰淇淋还是哈根达斯,早餐还有稀饭。就是十几个小时的飞行时间实在难熬。但女人适应环境的能力是很强的,看,要杯红酒把自己弄得小脸通红,准备酒后睡个好觉的,三人椅子,一头一个抱着对方的脚的,另一个哪去了?原来自我升舱到卧铺了。虽然不太雅观,但毕竟可以躺下睡会了。微信发出又是一片喧哗,这方法不错呀,下次向日葵色板官方也这样之类的。不过这个也只能是向日葵色板官方了,几个女人可以,如果换成大男人这样,呵呵,不太可能吧。为什么?你懂得。抵达洛杉矶是晚上8点多,一夜休息,精神抖擞。天气很好,根本没有中央电视台说的什么,美国到处遭遇暴风雪,走之前搞的家人担心向日葵色板官方,向日葵色板官方自己也担心很冷,带的全部是厚衣服,前半程西部自驾,都没带多少薄衣服,热的够呛。酒店门前阳光灿烂,等着免费班车送向日葵色板官方去租车处提车。 向日葵色板官方租车为了讨便宜找了个特价车,果然是便宜没好货,美国也有钓鱼,先拿便宜价钓来客人,然后再以升级车辆,推销保险等待手段加收费用。结果所以的推销备向日葵色板官方拒绝,那家伙很是不高兴。事实证明那台车果然不好,尤其是刹车肉的要命,在高速上踩三脚刹车,还是往前滑吓死人。就这么台车却是向日葵色板官方开的最长,天数最多的,而且后来发现向日葵色板官方认为小点的车好开,纯属误区,后来租的三台车都更大,但却比这台好开的多。 最最郁闷的是行李箱小,6个女人想尽办法,几度调整,最终行李箱里只放进三个大箱子,还有一大一小只能放在后排的车座上。 由于大部分人都到过洛杉矶,环球影城和迪斯尼也都去过了,白天也没有什么特别的活动,因为晚上要看NBA的比赛,所以只能在洛杉矶市内转转,先去圣塔莫妮卡海滩。这个海滩是洛杉矶最热闹的海滩,夏天会有很多人在这里晒太阳,游泳冲浪。但现在已经是12月了,海滩上没有几个人。 其实对于向日葵色板官方来说,这个海滩的风景实在是没什么,但女人就是这样的感性动物,不管什么环境都能自娱自乐。 这也太能自得其乐,就这么个管理员的小木屋都能让向日葵色板官方臭美半天虽然已经12月,洛杉矶依然很暖和,当天气温近30度,戏水完全没有问; 海滩上有很多海鸥,牠们丝毫不怕人其实到圣塔莫妮卡海滩最重要的原因就是这里,66号公路的终点。66号公路是美国的母亲之路。在19世纪时是一条跑马车的路,1927年美国政府投资修路,断断续续修路十几年,终于修成了这条贯穿美国东西海岸的公路,东起芝加哥西止于洛杉矶的圣塔莫妮卡,全长近4000公路。当时正值美国30年代经济大萧条时期,公路的修建为大批劳工提供了工作的机会,其后也为美国西部的开发起到了至关重要的作用。对于向日葵色板官方来说,最熟悉的就是阿甘在66号公路奔跑的镜头。、超大冰淇淋 洛杉矶除了迪斯尼乐园和环球影城,还有个盖蒂中心。这是用石油大亨保罗盖蒂的遗产建成的一个现代化的艺术中心,前后花费十多年才算建成。艺术馆本身不收费用,只是需要付15美金的停车费。从地下停车场直接坐电梯上到楼上,这里有个小小的电车站,坐上免费的电车,蜿蜒到山顶,就看到白色的建筑,那就是艺术中心了。里面收藏品都是盖蒂生前的收藏品,其中很多价值连城的艺术品,最为著名的就是梵高的鸢尾花,莫奈的草垛和美女。这么贵重的画居然没有玻璃保护,也没有隔离栏杆,可以近距离观赏。不过这么价值连城的艺术品,对于向日葵色板官方这几个不懂艺术的人,真是极大的浪费。 里面很多画和圣经以及文艺复兴有关,不懂圣经和欧洲历史完全搞不明白画的是什么,于是两个女伴开始对着画斜批三国,我在后面听得捧腹而不敢大笑,怕影响到别人,如果作者听到她们的解说怕是气的要从棺材里面爬出来,真是暴虐天珍啊。 ([]
※ 墨脱 ※ 普通人很少知道,圈子内很有名,中国最后一个不通车的县城。进入墨脱必须要翻越喜马拉雅山脉东南段的多雄拉雪山或嘎隆拉雪山,两座雪山终年积雪,冬季11月-6月更是深达数米难以逾越。中间还要穿越亚热带原始雨林、蚂蟥山、老虎嘴天险,克服高原反应、恶劣天气、艰险环境重重考验。正是这样一个充满神秘的地方,吸引了无数户外爱好者来挑战,徒步墨脱就成了中国十大经典徒步路线之首,绝对是对体力、意志的一种挑战。 ※ 行走墨脱,与生命交换了一次意见 ※ 这只是同行的一位大哥的感言而已!无需豪言壮语,我们只是跟随着前人的脚步,走了过来。之前看过不少攻略,也算是有备而来吧,也知道其不同季节不同天气有不同的困难。就便是登泰山也是如此,更何况是墨脱呢。今年雨季来得特别早,当地人说今年从2月就开始下雨,几乎一直没间断,对向日葵色板官方而言算是不幸呢还是幸运?塌方、泥石流可不是儿戏,这次有一名队员就是在塌方处被滚石砸中胳膊,好在不是很严重,而另一名队员的登山杖被泥石流带着去了印度。还有一条登山杖永远留在了嘎隆拉雪山上。 ※ 四海旅社曾眼镜※ 隐藏在云雾中的墨脱县城 ※ 一朵盛开的莲花,无数人带着自己的梦想追随到这里! ※ 行程 ※ 几乎跟大多数人一样,先到拉萨,然后次日乘坐班车到八一,然后包车到派镇。 在拉萨住在了喜力家 -- 暮野驴社,见到不少8264的朋友倍亲切。 D1 拉萨 -- 八一镇 -- 派镇 拉萨东郊客运站10点前随时有去八一的班车,票价100元、120元、140元、170元不等,向日葵色板官方坐的100元的大巴,中间在松多吃午餐。 下午5点多到达八一,接着在八一联系去派镇的班车,每人50元(人少不去,司机电话:13618940136),当晚8点多到达派镇。 派镇门票150元(有两种方法可逃票),向日葵色板官方住的是雅谷饭店,间每人25元。 D2 派镇 -- 松林口 -- 多雄拉 -- 拉格 早上从派镇到松林口,可以让住宿的店老板帮着联系乘大卡车进山,很方便,每人30元,大约40分钟的路程。 徒步从松林口出发,翻越4221米的多雄拉山口,夏季可以不用请向导,下雪时还是很有必要。 体力好基本3小时内到山顶,再3小时能到拉格。向日葵色板官方7点20派镇出发,8点多到松林口开始徒步上山,10点30到山顶,下午1点30到拉格。 如果体力好,当天可以赶到汉密,门巴人就是当天去了汉密,哈哈!!当然向日葵色板官方不能光走路,还要拍照的嘛! 拉格住绵阳吉祥客栈,所谓的客栈就是简易木板房(进墨脱的人多了,有人在半路建立了几间木板房),70元/天,含晚餐和次日早餐。老板是绵阳人,老板娘是门巴人。 D3 拉格 -- 大崖洞 -- 汉密 这段路相对最好走,没有岔路,原始森林里仅有的一条“水泥路”。最后到汉密时出现少量蚂蟥。一路原始森林,是俺迄今见过最原始的亚热带原始森林了。 一般中午在大崖洞吃饭,早上9点出发,下午4点30到达。 汉密住四海旅社曾眼镜那,也是70元/天,含晚餐和次日早餐,曾眼镜一个人在原始森林里呆了近10年,他自己就是一个传奇。 D4 汉密 -- 阿尼桥 -- 二号桥 -- 三号桥 -- 解放大桥 -- 背崩 这段路是最危险,以前进墨脱失踪的人几乎都是在这段路出事,门巴人也传说中间有些灵异现象,要注意队员间一定不要拉开距离。 个人认为主要中间有几条岔路,走错了就是最大的麻烦。 其中一条岔路过阿尼桥20分钟后右侧河上有一座无名桥,不能走。过本桥大约10多分钟到达二号桥。 另一条岔路过2号桥20米,左侧向上去易工白,右侧向下去背崩。虽也有人经易工白、德兴到达过墨脱,但这段路难度要大很多。 第三个岔路就是快到3号桥的时候,走下到河底的路线到桥上。还要注意三号桥到解放大桥中间的塌方要小心通过。 背崩住宿也是70元/天,价格好像他们几个店家都协商好了的。 D5 背崩 -- 亚让村 -- 墨脱县 这段路可以称高速公路了,可以通越野车。背崩属于和印度的边防线,这里有驻军。中间到亚让村之前拔高不大,从德兴大桥那里才开始拔高,估计半个小时到一个小时就上去。 上去就看到墨脱县城了,远看墨脱县城就是一朵隐藏在云雾中的莲花(建议次日早上再到这个位置拍一张)。 向日葵色板官方住在了著名的莲花大酒店,准间50元/人,条件不错。传说中的林业局招待所和政府招待所都满客! 当晚在莲花大酒店边上找了一家做石锅鸡的店,名字叫天上人间,哈哈!天上人间到处都有哈。 D6 休整 本来今天计划去仁钦崩寺-苯教的发源地,因为路途遥远加路途险恶未果。 D7 墨脱 -- 马迪新村 -- 米日村 -- 113K -- 108K -- 100K -- 96K 从墨脱到80K的道路全部被大雨冲塌,必须徒步到80K,一般需要2天时间,先到108K、然后到80K再乘车到52K。 经过一天的休整体力不错,中午到了113K,就把第一天的计划调到100K,到100K后感觉时间还早,就又赶到了96K。 96K吃住条件稍差,我们就无所谓了。第一家老板是甘肃人,老板娘是藏族,自己都没得吃。最后住给了他10元,晚餐10元,早餐10元(都是面条)。 D8 96K -- 80K -- 52K 继续出发,第一天多赶了路,这段较短相对轻松了不少。 夜里下了大雨,中间泥石流塌方严重,局部涉水深度达1米,也是最危险的路段,就是这段路上牺牲了一条登山杖。 从80K乘坐越野车直接到52K,每人200元,乘坐卡车每人100元,因为天气原因,那天简易路卡车都不能通行了。 住宿52K每人45元含两餐。 D9 52K -- 嘎隆拉 -- 24K -- 波密 -- 八一镇 嘎隆拉隧道正在半山腰连夜施工,据说是8月份就打通了,以后出入墨脱就再不用翻嘎隆拉雪山了。 嘎隆拉从山顶直接滑下来很过瘾,上山用了2个半小时,下山用了1小时,都从垭口直接滑下来。滑出的雪槽已经有2-3米深了。哈哈!高山滑雪! 24K直接乘坐越野车返回波密县,每人50元。到波密后立即乘坐班车返回八一,越野车每人150元,瑞风商务车有130元的。 晚上八一FB。 D10 八一镇 -- 拉萨 还是乘坐大巴班车返回拉萨,每人100元。回到出发的地方 -- 喜力家。晚上德吉路继续FB。装备使用情况在本帖子第61页有详细回答! 全程无露营,全部住宿简易木板房客栈。费用明细供参考:23日拉萨站公交车12每人1元,大件行李1元喜力家住宿225每人25晚餐1136菜1汤24日早餐50拉萨八一大巴900每人100松多午餐1506菜1汤八一派镇班车450每人50派镇门票450每张150,买了3张,其他逃票派镇住宿225雅谷饭店晚餐1556菜1汤25日派镇早餐110面条+抄手松林口大卡车270每人3026日拉格630每人吃住70,酒另买27日汉密630每人吃住70,酒另买28日背崩630每人吃住70,酒另买墨脱石锅鸡520酒另买29日午餐1806菜1汤酒另买晚餐1706菜1汤酒另买住宿900每人50两天10030日96K吃住275酒另买31日80K午餐18080K包车1800每人20052K吃住405每人451日24K乘车450每人50波密八一班车1240八一晚餐305酒另买2日八一拉萨班车810每人90松多午餐140拉萨晚餐284(7人) 酒另买拉萨住宿225每人25※ 一行9人在墨脱县莲花广场合影 从左到右:兔子、没钱不帅、林海雪原、风萧萧、飞鸟、开心笑、临渊羡鱼、边界、虎狼漫步 ※ 天路 ※ 5月21日,向日葵色板官方一行9人踏上了西行的列车,经过50多个小时于23日晚到达圣城拉萨,一座天堂里的城市。平均海拔4000多米的青藏高原充满了神奇,昆仑山、唐古拉山、念青唐古拉山,还有美丽的青海湖、可可西里、那曲草原。雪山脚下,天地之间,藏羚羊、黄羊、野驴、牦牛一路相伴。云那么白,天那么蓝!虽不是第一次进藏,可看到这高原美景就忍不住拿出相机咔嚓个不停。大脑也随之开始兴奋...※ 有一种色彩叫深蓝※ 天路 ※ 从上车一直到格尔木才拿出相机,走出站台感受一下高原的晨曦,顺便和列车合影一张,哈哈※ 天路 ※ 青藏铁路格(尔木)拉(萨)段,中间越过昆仑山、可可西里、长江源头、唐古拉山、那曲草原、念青唐古拉山。这一段是青藏铁路最美的一段,雪山、白云、绿草之间有黄羊、羚羊、牦牛、野驴一路相伴。※ 车窗外的雪山※ 天路 ※ 可可西里,野马?野驴?看着像驴,据说是藏野马!哈哈※ 天路 ※ 坐在车窗前,望着车窗外的白云,列车上播放着歌颂高原的曲子...向日葵色板官方一路来到拉萨※ 天路 ※ 坐着火车去拉萨,对我来说只有这样才能感觉到是真正的旅行。※ 天路 ※ 天是那么的宽,地是那么的广※ 天路 ※ 翻过了唐古拉山※ 天路 ※ 这是一条通往天堂的路※ 天路 ※ 青藏铁路※ 天路 ※ 青藏铁路、青藏公路交汇处※ 到达拉萨 ※ 到了拉萨当然要去喜力家的暮野驴社看看啦,哈哈!整体感觉不错。从火车站乘坐89路公交车1元到人民体育场下车,小胡同进30米就到了,很好找。距离大昭寺很近,不过从大昭寺到暮野方向感不是很强的人就可能麻烦些了。 光头大厨炒的东北菜挺适合山东人口味,嘿嘿,这是实话!※ 大昭寺广场的柱子, 从喜力家楼顶能清楚看见它和布达拉宫。※ 到达拉萨 ※ 从大昭寺去喜力家,一个比较好的方法:面向玛吉阿米左侧的路一直下去,看到清真寺右侧回拐30米即可到达。很遗憾喜力家楼上没有挂个牌子,初次过去的话可能还是不知所措!※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 派镇,是公路的终点,也是徒步的起点,也是雅鲁藏布江大峡谷的入口点。5月24日,早上从拉萨东郊客运站乘上到八一的班车,一路沿着拉萨河逆流而上,中午翻过米拉山口。米拉山口海拔5013米,是拉萨河与尼洋河的分水岭,不同的是拉萨河向西流,尼洋河向东流,相同的是都汇入雅鲁藏布江。过米拉山口之后,景色完全变了,顺美丽的尼洋河而下,两边森林植被明显增多,一山四季垂直分布,景色美丽至极。到达八一镇后立即包车连夜赶往派镇,司机告诉向日葵色板官方,一黑龙江女孩10天前在去墨脱的路上失踪,一两天前有农民工冻死在嘎隆拉山上(据说临死前嘴里还叼着一颗香烟)。司机师傅嘱咐我们在林芝机场检查站不要说去墨脱(否则不让进),说是去直白看南迦巴瓦峰。晚上向日葵色板官方在司机的推荐下入住雅谷饭店,并为向日葵色板官方联系好了去松林口的卡车。 夜里下了很大的雨,好在次日转晴,否则是不能上山了。5月25日,搭上联系好的卡车,一路碎石路拔高而上,山路颠簸如坐过山车。雅鲁藏布江大峡谷云雾弥漫如仙境一般,可惜没能腾出手拍下一张照片,就这样跟一路美景擦肩而过。一路拔高到松林口下车后又开始下起小雨,冲锋衣、雨衣、绑腿打好上山。山下面下雨,上面下雪,而阻挡在向日葵色板官方面前的是海拔4221米的多雄拉雪山。 没的选择,进墨脱就必须要越过他,从松林口出发。。。※ 318国道米拉山口上的经幡※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 5月24日沿着318国道赶往八一镇,318国道就是川藏南线,可以称之为中国最美景观大道。很羡慕那些川藏线上的骑行者!他们从成都到拉萨一般需要骑行20多天,很佩服!梦想着将来也有一天自己也能从成都骑行到拉萨一趟。 ※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 一路随处可见飘荡的经幡,寄托着藏胞们美好的心愿!※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 米拉山口、尼洋河成了路上独特的风景,吸引了大量路客驻足留影留念。※ 尼洋河中流砥柱巨石。※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 尼洋河上空的蓝天!※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 去八一路上看到的雪山!※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 车子进入林芝地区后,山体植被明显增多。不愧西藏的江南美誉。※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 班车到达八一镇下午5点多了,正常班车已经没有了,站内找车包车去派镇需要600元/车,是些去米林的金杯车班车。站外找车要便宜些,500就能搞定。 其实可以直接给去派镇的班车司机打电话,班车也可包车,有人随时会走,每人50元。向日葵色板官方9人花了450元去派镇,很顺利!特意留了班车电话供参考:13618940136,司机是四川人,很不错!※ 八一到派镇的班车,出发时下午6点了。※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 八一镇老鹰广场雕塑,经过时隔着车窗拍了一张。※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 经过机场大桥后大约30分钟后,到达尼洋河汇入雅鲁藏布江的江河汇流处,好心的司机停车让向日葵色板官方拍照。由于天气有些晚,光线也不足,就随便记录了一张。※ 尼洋河江河汇流处※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 到达派镇时已经黑天了,但是售门票的依然还在,去墨脱也要收150元,什么道理?快要到派镇时决定留几个在车上把包带进大门,几个喜欢探索的决定顺河边进去(不推荐!)。※ 派镇的早晨※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 在卫星图基础制作了一份手绘图,并附上了派镇街区图,仅供参考。路上只有注食宿的地点能住宿,其他地方都不行。※ 自制的徒步路线图※ 从拉萨到派镇 ※ 派镇住的是雅谷饭店,售票处第一个能看的招牌就是,到据说是镇上条件最好的,是司机推荐的,条件真不错,25元/人。网上不少人推荐去兄弟饭店、川渝饭店。([]

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: 我们的十一长假,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,我们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。向日葵色板官方买的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,我们买的是一小包大约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) ` ` ` ([]

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 location of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the locations 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([]
