所属地区: 青海 门源 适合人群: 自驾族 出游难度: 轻松 适合天数: 1天 花费预算: 300元以下 人数5人 适合时间: 7月中旬 8月初 攻略: 青海 海北州 门源 油菜花 浩门镇 青石嘴 互助 仙米 十二盘 █ 导语: 站在达坂山的高处向两边看,从青石嘴一直到看不见的门源县城浩门镇,百里花海成就了波澜壮阔花的奇观。这里的山山水水都披上了多彩的外衣,金黄的油菜花地有时又抹上一片翠绿,色彩非常丰富饱满,大色块的简单构图让人遐想联翩,思绪飞扬。七月的金色门源,真正是一种大美无声 █ 正文: 提起中国观赏油菜花最美的地方,估计喜欢旅游的人都能说出几个,如江西婺源、云南罗平、青海湖等等。在我看来,这几个地方的油菜花都有其不同的特点,如江西婺源的油菜花,由于是种植在丘陵地带或村前屋后的,一般种植面积不大,而且零星分布,散落于村落房舍之间,其搭配小桥流水、白墙黛瓦所形成的景观,是一种小家碧玉的美,是一种温情柔弱的美;云南罗平的油菜花是滇东高原的一个胜景,金鸡峰一带漫山遍野的油菜花,因为当地独特的喀斯特地貌,秀峰、村舍、道路、溪流均融入花海之中,场面相当壮观绮丽;青海湖的油菜花绽放的背景是中国最大的内陆湖泊——青海湖,从而使那里的油菜花多了几分“底气”,油菜花种植在湖边路旁,几十公里绵延不绝,像黄色的花毯,似金色的绸缎,在湛蓝的湖水和飞舞的白云映衬下,让人感到炫目的美。金色与青色交织出的极富张力的画面 那么,门源的油菜花又有什么特点呢?简单地说,是一种震撼人心的美! 地处青海北部的门源回族自治县,是北方小油菜的发源地,种植小油菜已经有1800年的历史了,是全国乃至全世界最大的小油菜种植区,种植面积达60万亩。每年7月,整个浩门川是一片的金黄,浓艳的黄花,北依祁连山,南靠达坂山,西起永安城,东到玉隆滩,绵延近百公里,就像一片无边无际的金色大海。 向日葵色板官方往青石嘴的方向走,爬过七旋八拐的盘山公路,穿过海拔3798米的达坂山(也叫大寒山)隧道,出得隧道哪一霎那,陡然间天际宽了,向下看一阵的美景夹杂着扑面而来的突然,绝对是让人眩晕。在观花台找在一处油菜花开比较漂亮的地方,走进花海,只觉得花香沁人心脾,让人陶醉。在微风的吹拂下,大片的油菜花像波浪一般上下起伏,沙沙作响的声音像在轻轻诉说,宛如欢快歌唱,使人烦乱的思绪即时安静下来,记得曾经听人家说过:常在花间走,活到九十九,这次是深有体会了。不过,这仅仅是门源油菜花美的开始,接下来所看到的油菜花宏大场面,着实让向日葵色板官方大开眼界。 在北方,提起油菜花,稍有点儿旅游经验的人都会想起青海省海北藏族自治州门源县,这里是北方小油菜生产基地,经过近年持续不断的努力,过去以种植油菜而大副提高了农民收入的青海省门源回族自治县,如今又把一片片油菜花变成了一旅游名牌,成为青海旅游的一大亮点。从每年的七月初开始,这里就进入了油菜花盛开的季节,开花时间是7月5日至25日,最佳花期是7月10日至20日。 处青海北部的门源县是北方小油菜发源地,是全国乃至全世界最大的小油菜种植区,种植面积达50万亩。但过去这里的油菜仅作为农作物,外界称其“门源油,天下流”。七月中旬,门源的油菜花竞相怒放,花景与当地的蓝天白云、高山流水、林海草原和独有的民居、蜂农等交相辉映,变幻出一道道独具特色的迷人风光,令无数游客迷醉其间。而门源也借此连续举办了十届油菜花文化旅游节,该节现已成为省内外颇有影响力的节日。2013年门源油菜花节的举办时间为7月18日-25日。 天空不作美,但是照顾我的人品,初到的时候天气不太好。 还是我的人品好,感动了上天,露出了蓝天白云 这是花海深处的蜂场,很壮观的,我是在车上照的。千万要注意安全哦! 这个就不用多说了吧!哈哈! 观花就要拍照,油菜花最大的特点是它的颜色,金黄一片,非常纯粹。选择在油菜花海里拍照有一个先天优势,无论穿什么颜色的衣服,都可于艳丽的油菜花搭配,穿着白色的衣服在金黄色的背景下会十分醒目,姑娘的肤色会显得格外的好看。拍摄油菜花照的最佳时间是细雨初停时,油菜花上挂着水珠,色彩最为鲜艳明润。拍照不仅要拍景物,更重要的是拍花海中的人。推荐两个地方,一个是青石嘴镇的元山观花台和县水泥厂对面的南山上,这里能全观浩门川的油菜花和常年积雪不化的冷龙岭及岗石卡雪峰,拍出来的照片将有春夏秋冬四季景色,背景层次极好;二是东部仙米林区,这里的不仅有漂亮的油菜花,还有原始森林,仙米峡谷,各种色块交织,色彩特别丰富。三是油菜花都是一丛一丛的,很矮,在油菜花海里面拍照,比较适合坐下,或者躺下,假如穿着白色婚纱拍照,将白色婚纱铺散在花丛中,很能突出女性的妩媚气质。拍照时挑选几套有动感的衣服,更加搭配周围的环境。有条件的朋友也可带一辆自行车或从当地朋友处借一辆,在花海中可以骑上一段,也可以作为道具。赶上个好天气,遇上金色门源最美的一面 推荐油菜花欣赏地点 1.从西宁到门源经过的青石嘴观花台,距离门源20公里左右,有个30多米高的小山坡,是观看花海绝佳的观赏地。如果你是坐班车前往,建议在青石嘴下车驻足欣赏后再继续搭班车前往门源 2.门源县水泥厂的南山坡,能够全观门源浩门川的油菜花和常年积雪不化的冷龙岭雪峰。拍出来的照片有黄花雪峰景色,但需要爬山,约40分钟。 3.如果想融入花海之中,就出县城向北山的方向去,沿田间道路走,路的两侧就是无边的油菜花,是一个低视角观赏花海的地方,海中观海,花香袭鼻,远处还有雪山作衬托。花田小憩,是很不错的享受 █ 景点介绍 门源油菜花位于青海省海北藏族自治州的门源县,是青海省及西北地区的主要油料产区,由此,这里的油菜花也成为了一种美丽而蔚为壮观的人造景观。另外,这里油菜花的种植范围是,它西起浩门河畔的青石嘴,东到大通河畔的玉隆滩,北到与甘肃省交界的冷龙岭,南至高峻的大坂山,绵延数十公里。夏日时节,走进青海门源回族自治县,恰如走进一幅浑然天成的油画。 景区地址:青海省海北州门源回族自治县 景区门票:无,观景台门票:30元/人 █ 当地住宿: 门源县住宿资源有限,相对西宁来说住宿条件一般,想留宿门源的话,可以住在浩门宾馆,或是裕华宾馆,都位于门源十字路口拐角处,很容易找到,相对来说,卫生条件还不错,间在100元/天左右。另外车站附近还有一些小旅馆双人间15元/晚。 推荐住宿 浩门宾馆 地址:海北门源县浩门镇东大街12号 电话:0970-8618008 裕华宾馆 地址:青海省海北州门源县西大街104 电话:0970-8610288 因为整个行程可以把西宁作为大本营来安排,而且通常去门源一天来回足够回到西宁,能在西宁住宿还是最好不过的,毕竟城市规模大,设施齐全,各方面都更加方便。西宁大十字附近有很多连锁旅馆,并且当地青旅也很多,较为经济实惠。 推荐住宿 青海西宁赞巴拉国际青年旅舍 地址:青海省西宁市城西区七一西路湟岸巷10号 价格:普通高低床 40元/床 联系:0971-8450801 推荐理由:赞巴拉青年旅舍是一家以摄影为主,热爱摄影、旅行、生活的人士为主要客源的文化交流型旅社。店内更有知名风光摄影师赞巴拉驻守(POCO摄影网总版主),随时可以与其进行摄影交流。 西宁西庭客栈 地址:青海省西宁市城中区建材巷9号 价格:八人间 45元/床 联系:0971-8800915 18673601138

推荐理由:客栈座落在国家AAAA级景区马步芳公馆景区中,占地面积近1600平方米,拥有近120张床位,最有特色的就是藏式多人间,藏式风格让您有不一样的体验。当地饮食: 门源餐饮是典型的西北风格,推荐到县城最豪华的浩云饭店,这家清真饭店的菜量很大,菜做得地道,味道好,卫生也不错,是街头小店不能相比的。 推荐餐饮 浩云饭店 地址:门源回族自治县西大街22号 电话:0970-8618008 门源当地特色小吃 到了门源,就一定尝尝要门源的风味小吃。门源的小吃名闻遐迩。凡来门源旅游过的人,无不怀念门源的风味小吃。一道普通的菜,一碗平常的青稞面饭,都会在门源人的手里变得格外生动和有味。 奶皮 奶皮是门源回族的特产,是牛奶制品中最可口的营养食品。它主要用犏牛奶制作。其方法是鲜牛奶入锅煮熟后,控制火候、用秸干草皮微火,烘煮、不搅动,使水分慢慢蒸发,奶汁浓缩在锅底凝结成圆形奶饼,用擀面杖轻轻挑起,折成半圆,放阴凉处阴干既成。奶皮纯黄夹白,油渍点点,蜂窝沙孔满布,切成菱形放入盘内即可食用。色彩清新迷人,入口奶油溢香,酥柔味美,不油不腻,不但可供日常食用,而且还是待客馈赠的上品。目前,麻莲乡奶皮加工坊,对农户制作的奶皮进行了真空防腐包装,便携宜存,是当地知名的品牌。 背口袋 背口袋是土族人民比较讲究的食品之一。每当节日、婚礼或家里来了客人用它来接待。其操作过程是用清油烙煎饼,荨麻叶和面,加上香油、葱花、调料等煮熟成糊状,然后摊在而饼上卷紧,折叠过来,盛在盘中让客人享用。这种哈力海,其味清香独特,当地汉语形象地称其为“背口袋”。 酩流子酒 “八仙的个桌子上哟——哟,向日葵色板官方吃一杯子尕酩流吧哟——哟,怎么样的吃来吧怎么样的喝呀,也不醉来吧呀哟——哟……”这是青海民间小调《尕老汉》中的一段唱词。土族民间有个传说,说很早以前土族的先祖布勒黑汗上天取青稞种子,下海捉水牛。在了阔肥沃的土地上第一次种下了种子。夏秋丰收,打下的青稞放满了板栅,生活是富裕了,但这种日子中又感到缺些什么,人们懒洋洋地躺在山坡上唱歌,总是鼓不起劲,提不起神。于是布勒黑汗便在威远堡打了一口井,将水浇在板栅里,这样过了一个月,板栅里滴下了一滴滴的明亮亮琼浆,香气溢满了千家万户,人们喝一口,嗓门清亮声传十里,喝两口像久旱的青苗逢甘露,热血沸腾,激清荡漾,后来,他们就学会酩流子酒的酿制。 节庆之前,门源地区的土族、汉族、藏族人家都要自酿酩流酒一些来待客。此酒色清而性平,酒度偏低,喝起来软而不烈,稍甜而不辣,主人就用碗倒了敬客,加上桌子上一大盘子的手抓羊肉,真可以体验“大碗喝酒,大块吃肉”的梁山好汉们的豪情。 酿皮 在门源的街道上到处可以看到买酿皮的小摊子,一张桌子几条凳子,小橱框里边的摊主手持菜刀,啪啪几下,将酿皮切成细条、抓到盘内,再抓些面筋,放上盐、醋、味精、芥茉、辣子等,就可以食用。酿皮的制作很费时间,先和好了面,和入蓬灰水(民间用蓬草烧制的弱碱)后揉得筋到,然后将面团放入清水盆中,慢慢捏拿,直至面尽,留下面筋,再将面汁舀入盘中,和面筋一起或蒸或馏,做成酿皮。弱碱量稍大者为褐黄色,不放弱碱或少放弱碱者为嫩黄色,褐色的肥厚,嫩黄的薄柔,各有其味。这种酸辣可口的快餐,尤受女子们的青睐。 酸奶 酸奶是民间非常传统的奶制冷饮,营养丰富,助消化。 在门源,酸奶分农区和牧区两种。牧区的酸奶用牦牛奶制作。这种酸奶表层结为含奶油的黄色硬脂奶皮,扒开奶皮,软嫩粘稠的酸奶象豆腐脑一样洁白如雪,芳香扑鼻,入口,酸甜凉爽宜人,没有人不喜欢这个美味的。农区制作的酸奶主要用犏牛和黄牛奶制作。一般用小碗盛装,并在上面漓几点菜油。这种酸奶表层金黄,鲜嫩洁白,加上一勺白砂糖,味道酸中带甜,五元一碗,价廉质优、食用方便。 █ 行程规划 门源油菜花种植范围广泛,沿着G227国道到青石嘴镇,再到岗青公路沿线往东,一路上随处可见浩瀚壮丽的油菜花田景色。自驾本来就是游览青海风光的最佳方式,去门源看油菜花,自驾或者包车无疑也是最佳的游览观光方式。好处在于能够自由控制行程,在喜欢的景点可以安排合理的拍摄时间来拍摄。早上从西宁市出发,白天沿公路沿线游览油菜花,以门源县中心浩门镇为终点,一天可以走一个来回,傍晚回到西宁市,而且青海8点半左右天才黑,一天的游览时间可以安排的很充裕。 除了门源的油菜花之外,七月的青海仍有太多可以驻足流连欣赏的风光:青海藏传佛教第一大寺的塔尔寺,青海的高原明珠——青海湖,秀丽奇绝的卓尔山,中国的天空之镜——茶卡盐湖等等。七八月是青海旅游的最佳季节,远远的赶来青海,最好能够安排一周以上的时间来计划出行。一般来说,青海湖游览需要二到四天,塔尔寺半天,门源一天,茶卡盐湖半天,一周的行程安排的满满,整个行程将被美丽的青海景色装饰的五彩缤纷。 仙米森林公园是青海省面积最大的林区,公园覆盖门源县东川、仙米、珠固三个镇,南北宽55公里,东西长95公里,土地总面积14.8万公顷,1996年该公园被批准为省级森林公园,2003年升级为国家森林公园。由于受祁连山脉影响,仙米森林公园园区地表水和地下水资源都十分丰富,是南部多条黄河水系和北部多条内陆水系河流的发源地。仙米森林公园内古松苍柏,风光迷人。春夏之际,林木疏扶,繁华似锦;秋季,硕果摇金,层林尽染;及至冬季山头白雪皑皑,山坡松柏苍翠挺拔,堪称一块人间圣地。有雪龙红山、二郎神藏剑洞、三道峡及东海五色神湖等传说和藏族“华热”民俗风情以及仙米、珠固古寺。 景区地址:海北藏族自治州门源县东部,距西宁108公里本文重点照片为门源油菜花。这张只是去年秋天照的,此文是游记攻略。当天向日葵色板官方没有只是一路观景在仙米没有照照片。还请见谅 去门源看油菜花,一般是先乘飞机或火车抵达西宁,再包车、自驾或坐班车前往门源。西宁为青海省省会,青藏高原上最大的都市,交通便捷,拥有飞机、火车、汽车等多种交通方式。 到达西宁 飞机 西宁曹家堡机场位于西宁市中心以东,国内航线中飞往北京、西安的飞机每天都有航班;其余飞往上海、成都、重庆、格尔木、广州、昆明、深圳、乌鲁木齐的航班不是每天都有,出发前需要咨询一下。 民航班车票价21元,终点站是市区的民航售票处,地址:城东八一西路34号。从曹家堡机场到民航售票处车程约30分钟,班次根据到达航班安排。从机场到市区坐出租车的价格在80元左右,所以人多的话不妨考虑出租车。 火车 西宁是兰青、青藏铁路交汇处,铁路交通四通八达,有直达拉萨、格尔木、北京、上海、西安和青岛等地的列车。省内有支线通往大通、柴达木、茶卡等地。西宁火车站位于西宁市的东部的祁连路上,靠近西宁长途汽车站。随着青藏铁路的贯通,西宁成为前往拉萨的一个重要的火车中转站,全国各地前往拉萨的火车大部分经停西宁,西宁至拉萨全程24小时左右,所有班次的发车时间都在下午4点以后发车。 西宁火车站现在一般指的是西宁西站,距离市区有20多公里,但出站后提供很多专线车,往返市内。 客车 有青藏、青新、青川等省内外交通干线,长途汽车通往省内外主要的市、县。西宁共有两个长途汽车站。各车站班次频密,车票并不紧张,只要提前一天购买便可。 西宁长途汽车站 是发往外省、外区最主要的车站。 电话:0971-7112094 地址:位于市区东部的建国路1号,在火车站以南约600米。 西宁新宁路汽车站 主要发往兰州和省内的塔尔寺、共和、乐都、湟源等地。 电话:0971-6155795 地址:位于市区中西部的新宁路和盐湖路交界处。 到达门源 门源距离西宁市100多公里,一般从西宁去往门源可以乘坐班车或者自驾包车前往。 公共交通 从西宁市长途客运站乘汽车到门源县浩门镇约5小时,票价36元,每小时都有班车。本人不推荐此方案:原因是景区地域太大,再加上时间上不方便啊! 自驾最好是私车哦! 如果没有的话也可以考虑下面的方案 从西宁市出发先走宁大高速S1到大通县,下高速进入G227国道,在达坂山收费站,青石嘴镇进入岗青公路一直东走便可以到达门源县中心浩门镇。整个行程约150公里,3个半小时行程。也可以选择找个靠谱师傅包车前往门源,一般一天游玩一个来回足够,整个包车费用在600元左右。 西宁市内租车推荐: 神州租车 地址:西宁市城东区花园北街3号省军区招待所院内北2楼

献哈达是藏族待客规格最高的一种礼仪,表示对客人热烈的欢迎和诚挚的敬意。哈达以白色为主,亦有浅蓝色或淡黄色的,一般长约1.5米至2米。最好的是蓝、黄、白、绿、红五彩哈达,用于最高最隆重的仪式如佛事等; 3、喝酥油茶时,主人倒茶,客人要待主人双手捧到面前时,才能接过来喝;续杯时,客人须用双手把茶碗向前倾出,以表敬意; 4、藏族人一般不吃鱼虾、鸡肉和鸡蛋,不要勉强劝食,不过现在很多藏族人也开始吃了; 5、忌讳别人用手触摸头顶; 6、接待客人时,无论是行走还是言谈,总是让客人或长者为先,并使用敬语,如在名字后面加个:"啦"字,以示尊敬和亲切,忌讳直呼其名。迎送客人,要躬腰曲膝,面带笑容。室内就坐,要盘腿端坐,不能双腿伸直,脚底朝人,不能东张西望。接受礼品,要双手去接。赠送礼品,要躬腰双手高举过头。敬茶,酒,烟时,要双手奉上,手指不能放进碗口。 关于高原反应 门源平均海拔2866米。部分人会在海拔3000米以上的地方产生高原反应症状,例如头晕、头疼、全身无力、失眠等,轻微的高反症状一般会在1-2天内随着身体对海拔的适应而消失。 关于高反的一些建议: 1. 行前禁止烟酒,避免劳累,可适当提前几天服用红景天等预防药品。感冒期间不宜去高原地区,容易引发肺水肿。 2. 无需体能锻炼,多吃蔬菜水果多喝水,保证睡眠,心态放松即可。 3. 轻微的高原反应会随着身体对海拔的适应而逐渐自愈,所以不要轻易吸氧,以免造成对氧气瓶的依赖,可服用高原安或西洋参等药品缓解。 4.经过海拔较高路段时,避免跑步、疾走和蹦跳。 蜜蜂蛰后紧急处理措施 门源油菜花资源太过丰富,无奈蜜蜂众多,穿梭油菜花田中难免会有狭路相逢的时候,结合大家以往的处理经验,给大家提供几个应急的处理措施,所谓有备而无患。 蜂毒主要含有蚁酸,神经毒和组胺。人被蛰伤后,主要是局部剧痛、灼热、红肿或水疱形成。被群蜂或毒力较大的黄蜂蛰伤后,症状较重,可出现头晕、头痛、恶寒、发热、烦躁、痉挛及晕厥等。少数可出现喉头水肿、气喘、呕吐、腹痛、心率增快、血压下降、休克和昏迷。被蜂蛰伤后,可采取以下方法急救: 1.立即在被蛰局部寻找到蜂针并拔除,然后再拔火罐吸出毒汁,减少毒素的吸收。 2.局部用3%氨水、5%碳酸氢钠溶液或肥皂水洗净。对黄蜂蛰伤则不用上药而局部涂涂以醋酸或食醋。 3.可在伤口周围涂南通蛇药或在下列草药中任选一种捣烂外敷,如紫花地丁、半边莲、七叶一枝花、蒲公英等。 有神志障碍、呼吸困难或血尿的重症病人,应尽快送医院治疗。([]
印度60天,有太多的故事要讲,如果期待大片,那真的很抱歉,在印度一只小相机一路走,一路拍,那时候只想记录真实的印度。现在我还是会说,我还想回去再走一遍,因为那里的风景也吸引我,但是初次和印度亲密接触,让我能记录的只有那些生活小事,大片留着给柏拉徒步先生去拍。初识——现实太骨感在新加坡机场候机,“前往海德拉巴的乘客,请现在登机。”我听到广播后,起身去排队,按座位号每十排的顺序进入,我看了一眼座位号,不出意外,应该是最后一批。看着眼前都是皮肤黝黑的印度人,发现其实只有我一个外国人,其他都是印度人。 我突然领悟到,原来这股奇怪的异味是我周遭印度人的腋味。这种味道,不只有传统的咖喱味,也加上一点羊臊味,以及人类的汗味,还夹杂一点香水味。没闻过这股味道的人,刚开始问道时,会感觉刺鼻,然后肚子里的胃也闻到,然后就开始反胃,胃感觉排山倒海般折腾。非常不舒服。虽然会想避开,但是过了一陈子也就慢慢习惯,而最后就闻不到臭味了。 也许是紧张,面对面前的咖喱饭一点食欲都没有。三个半小时的飞行时间,我不断在设想,即将迎接我的是怎样一个城市,即使之前查阅了一点资料,但是当一个人真的快要到达那座陌生城市的时候,必然还是会想很多。飞机快降落的时候我拉起窗户板,看着地面上星星点点的灯火,心里的紧张一下子放松了很多,因为在快半夜的时候这城市还挺亮堂,挺大。不断安慰自己,不会很糟糕。 本以为一切会像过海关时候一样顺利,事实有点出入,我找不到第二件行李了。那时候的慌张从未有过。询问机场的工作人员,他们让我去那里认领三个没有人领的行李,我看了,不是自己的,那时候特别无助,机场人员询问我是不是从新加坡飞过来的,我猛点头,他让我去另外一处,说部分行李是在另外一条行李运输通道上,我紧盯着行李口,又找一遍还是没有,那时候几乎快绝望了,我的资料证件复印件和生活所有用品都在那个行李里面,虽然不是最重要的,丢失会很麻烦。我在国际行李咨询处,不断和工作人员描述和沟通,他们讲的印度的英语,让我又无比纠结,在焦急的等待了四十多分钟后,最后看到工作人员把我的行李拿过来,那时候真的快哭了,居然找回来了。记得很多人和我说过,在印度托运行李没了实属正常,要是还能找回来那属不正常。一切都办妥后,我在机场联系我在印度的Team Leader,哪里都不敢去,坐在机场里,每一个印度人,基本都会看我两眼,在机场里女人出现的非常少,基本全部都是男人。我连看都不敢看他们,简直就像一个被遗弃的小孩等待父母来领回家,Karan回复我让我去机场巴士站坐车到Keyes High School。先去换了钱,我又不敢和别人讲话,别人问我,我也装作不懂,不搭理,我只敢问那里的工作人员,一遍遍确认我要去的地方哪一站下车,被告知是最后一站,不得不说他们的工作人员态度非常好,我至少问了不下三次,依然非常有耐心。我坐上巴士后,才发现,怎么就我一个女的呀,调侃自己勇气可嘉,那时候真的有点无法想象。一路开着,都没有什么红绿灯,也没有什么路灯,一路都是破房子,高楼想都别想,大厦更是没影,一路都是男人,没有半个女人的影子,看着马路上会有人就睡在路边,真心怕了。我心里一百个一千个后悔,后悔自己不听父母的劝告执意要来印度,后悔应该在机场等到天亮再坐车找Karan。只能假装镇定,告诉自己没事的,我要相信我的Team Leader。到了最后一站下车,一群男人拥上来,我被吓的抓着行李的手不停颤抖,但是不断告诉自己,对他们说NO,我自己搬着行李,被一堆男人注视,半夜三更,我假装很自然,拉起行李往前走,一切都是这样自然,内心确实是波涛汹涌,走了几步发现学校门口居然有人就睡在那里,我停下了,我打电话给我的Team Leader告诉他我在门口了,他说他也到了,整个通话过程我感觉到自己说话的声音都在颤抖,注视着那堆男人有没有向我走来,随时准备丢了行李跑。一个男孩向我走来,我咬着嘴唇,努力分辨是不是我在印度的Team Leader,我迎上去,他让我等在那里,他又走回去了,好一会儿才把车开到我面前,装上行李,带我去住的地方,一路让我心灰意冷,太穷太穷了。但是,既然来了,那也没有办法了。 第一晚,我睡在一个完全不认识的男生的床上,他仅仅在facebook和我沟通过关于艾滋病方面的事情。凌晨两点,倒在床上,看着天花板调侃两句,说道,在印度的第一晚就睡在男人的床上啊。又想想有的睡就不错了。没有空调,只有电扇,枕头根本无法睡,没有勇气把我的脑袋放到一个都黑了的枕套上,不脱衣服,不洗漱,睡下,关灯不久,就听到声音,我一直以为是老鼠,怕的不行,但是还是逼迫自己睡,事实就是我一整晚没有睡觉,心脏还不够强大。第二天才知道那是他养的鸽子的声音。早上起来被告知停水了,没有洗漱,没有洗澡,我从来没有想象过我可以这样洒脱,但是事实在印度我足够洒脱,不刷牙,不洗脸,还是能香香的吃早饭,吃了他妈妈做的早餐,向日葵色板官方开始讨论向日葵色板官方的project,我一下子感觉到,任务很是艰巨。更加艰巨的一件事情出现了,我没有地方住,最后只能继续住在Karan家,这是计划之外的事。Karan家停水,导致三天没洗澡,没洗脸,没刷牙,我那时候认为这个已经是我的极限了,后来事实证明这是没有极限的,不过这些都是后话了。

海德拉巴老城中心 在四宣礼塔旁边 海德拉巴老城中心 路边卖手镯的 很多很便宜的 第三天 去了印度小吃店 全印度人 吃得东西 大部分人会觉得脏 但是味道不错 不会拉肚子的啦 戈尔孔达城堡也是印度著名的堡垒之一,位于Hadalarba城西10公里,这个古城范围很大,是穆斯林聚居区。Golconda Fort其名称来源于泰卢固语“戈尔孔达”,意思是牧羊人的山坡。戈尔孔达城堡的来源可以追溯到得奥格里的雅达瓦朝代和瓦饵加朗的卡咯提雅斯王朝。戈尔孔达最初是一个泥浆筑的堡垒,经由巴赫马尼王朝管辖然后到奎特沙希,奎特沙希在公元1518年-1687年期间统治戈尔孔达。前三位奎特沙希国王重建了戈尔孔达城堡,历时62年。戈尔孔达城堡以其声学、宫殿、工厂、独特的供水系统和著名的菲特拉哈本手枪而闻名。

结婚哦 新郎会带着一众人在路边跳舞 我住得地方附近 都是很生活的地方 反正很穷 不过貌似房价不便宜 在海德拉巴,最先去的是四宣礼塔——海得拉巴的志性建筑,而向日葵色板官方知道,国外的志性建筑,往往都是有故事的老古董,而非新时代的新高度。这个数百年前的故事在今天看来相当的有意思,因为她毫无疑问的证明了,现如今被认为极其保守闭塞的穆斯林,曾经却是这个星球上最为开放包容的文明,全印度最著名的两个爱情故事居然都是穆斯林的。一个是阿格拉的印度名片泰姬陵,另一个就是这座海得拉巴的城市志四宣礼塔。 十六世纪初,德干高原的统治者叫库塔沙,定都戈尔孔达城堡。这位人称苏丹五虎之一,武勇过人的国王却有一个诗人儿子穆罕穆德。诗人,当然大多数都有些浪漫情怀,喜欢风花雪月远胜过攻城略地。很不幸,这位穆斯林的王子爱上了一个印度教徒的女儿,无论身份地位、财富门第还是宗教信仰,双方都相去甚远。这种恋爱自然遭到双方父母的强烈反对。男方父母反对是因为对一个政治家来说,婚姻是一个可以用来增强实力的手段,而不应该浪费在爱情上。女方父母反对是因为对方在他们看来是入侵者、异教徒。于是,这位王子殿下就经常深更半夜独自偷溜出门,去很远去看她的心上人。据说当时横贯海得拉巴的穆西河上还连座桥都没有,所以王子还需要骑马涉水过河。但他真正要担的风险可比骑马溺水要大得多了。首先是他并非国王的独子,婚姻大事不听父母安排的话,很可能会被取消继承权。其次是他去的目的地都是印度教徒,都拿他当异教徒的敌人看待,万一被当地人看到,极大可能会发生冲突。然而,他去了,毅然决然,坚持不懈。最终,不止那位美丽的姑娘,连双方的父母也都被感动了。苏丹破例允许他的这个儿子娶异教徒的平民之女为妻,并且保留他的王位继承权以及他妻子继续保有印度教信仰的权利,而女方父母也不再将对方当入侵的敌人来看待,不再将女婿视为异教王子。一件出乎意料的事情是,由于王子痴情而执着的爱情,王国收到了意想不到的礼物。王子与民女的婚姻最终不但促成了两个家庭的和解,在很大程度上,甚至促进了穆斯林统治者与当地印度教徒的关系,内部和谐使这个王国后来一度成为南印度最大的王国。王子大婚没过多久就发生了两件事,一是他的父王去世,他登基为王;二是戈尔孔达城堡因过快增长的人口和依丘而建的位置,连年水荒,王国需要迁都。于是,新国王决定迁都到他妻子的故乡,并以他爱妻的名字Hyder将新都命名为Hyderabad,意为海得之城。新城需要新清真寺和宣礼塔,于是他按照伊斯兰初期四大哈里发的规制,建了这座四宣礼塔,而这座重要的宗教建筑所在的位置,就是他爱妻曾经的旧宅。 Birla Temple建在一座小山顶上,面对Hussain Sagar lake, 全部用白色大理石建造,在上面可以看到整个城市。这里不用买门票,进庙前要存鞋存随身物品。而且这里每天都有很多人来,我就没有非要进去看看的念头,在四周转了挺久。 戈尔孔达城堡,听说最外面的城墙有九道城门,但环绕中央城区“Bala Hisar”的两公里城墙则只有一座城门。此门造的异常坚固,即使受到等同于战车力量的大象攻击也不动如山。城门外的停车场聚集着小贩和导游,让人感觉回到了国内任何一个景区外的停车场一样熟悉,到处都是人。这城堡不只是建造在岩石上,就连岩石石块也都保持原状,物尽其用地当做城墙。这个王朝非常富有,因为当时世界第一的钻石产地就在海德拉巴附近的克里希纳河流域。城里还有钻石市场,时隔充满生机、活力十足的城市。特别值得一说的是,世界知名的巨大钻石多产自此地,例如目前收藏在卢浮宫博物馆——四百十克拉的“摄政王”,以及英国皇冠上耀眼夺目,原重三百六十克拉的“Koh-i-Noor”(意味“光之山脉”)其实,不只有英国窥私这里的财富。在英国之前,控制着北印度的莫卧儿帝国的奥朗哲布(建造泰姬陵沙贾汗之子),在一六五六年和一六八七年两次猛攻戈尔孔达城;精疲力竭的顾特卜·沙希王朝就这么灭亡了,而海德拉巴也被并为莫卧儿帝国的领土。这个离德里一千两百五十公里远的地方,已经是莫卧儿帝国疆域的最南端。后来,莫卧儿帝国统治时的海德拉巴首长——“最高地位者”阿萨夫·伽宣布独立,一七二四年成为藩王,建立了尼萨姆王朝(也称为“海德拉巴藩国”)。这位精明的政治家为了继续扩大势力,最初与法国结合、到了十九世纪则转向英国,透过外国的支援来维持藩国的繁荣、(钻石就是在那个时代被英国人拿走的)([]
历史,时尚,文艺,出逃,猎奇,探险,浪漫,绝望。所有的这些经历你都可以在巴黎找到,没有一个人会失望而归。巴黎是所有人的城市。每个人带着不同的期许而来,又带着不同的启示离开。巴黎是一座值得反复体验的城市,来之前即便你万般想象,却也总是无法猜中。就敲字之前想了好久的目,除了梦,真的想不到别的词汇来形容了。而且不仅是我一个人的梦,巴黎是所有人的梦。在这做人口200多万的城市里,每年要来往2000多万的游客,ya, you can do the math.所以不好意思,我在所有少女的梦想里活了几天。第一次发帖,先上些萌萌哒美图预预热吧。。【Tips】1. 地铁。要说巴黎有什么值得我赞叹的地方,地铁算是一个吧。倒不是说巴黎地铁有多么的华丽丽,相反,里面到处弥漫的尿的气味。。。但是它的很四通八达,站于站之间的距离很短,无论想去哪里地铁都可以到。不像在意大利那样走断腿。。。地铁票嘛,一切靠自觉了。游客们基本都是很老实买票坐车,当地人就各种逃票的都见识了。当然逃票是需要胆识和体力的,所以大家还是乖乖买票吧。建议买10次票,13欧。单次票是1.7欧。在节假日和周末可以买青年周末票,6欧左右一天。我是圣诞去的,买了周末票。2. 天气。在巴黎是真心体会到了旅行需要好天气的支持。下雨就不说了,主要是冬天,9点天亮4点半天黑,觉得整个白天被缩的好短。。。没别的,计划好时间吧。(楼主刚来荷兰的时候是夏天更夸张,6点天亮10点天黑,白天超漫长觉得好累)3. 甜点。马卡龙,勃朗峰,这些不用多说大家都知道了,只是我觉得基本上没有想象中那么好吃。可能之前自己脑补的太夸张了,导致真正吃到的时候会有种不过如此的感觉。不过巴黎的甜点确实都做的很精致,我虽然知道可能不会很好吃,但是每次看到也还是觉得好想吃。4. 排队。像铁塔这种地方,如果要上塔顶的话,最好一大早就来,或者在网上先预约好时间(预约费是几欧元),不然就要重蹈我排3个小时队的覆辙。。。5. 安全。当然还是在外要保管好自己的财务,贵重物品不要留在hotel。像我是人品爆发了,在外面晃了这么多天没事,但是hotel房间被偷了。。。==6. 语言。巴黎人或者法国人的英文都不太好或者说他们不屑于说英文,所以很难问路神马的。不过在餐厅里用英文基本没问,而且餐厅里超多中国人,估计大家都是去过圣诞的。。。Day 124/12孚日广场-夏约宫-香街出发去巴黎之前我就有点闷闷不乐的,因为天气预报说我去的那几天只有最后一天会天晴。早上起来拉开窗帘,果然。还不是那种毛毛细雨,是下的啪啦啪啦的那种。我心碎啊。。。所以本来挑了些室内的点,结果还是没能终结悲剧。第一站去了巴士底广场和孚日广场那一片。巴士底广场的位置是以前的巴士底狱,已经没有一点当年的痕迹了。本来就不是喜欢下雨天的人,在凄风冷雨里面开始的巴黎之旅,笼罩在一种诡异的气氛里。到处都是一片灰蒙蒙。每到一个城市必拍地铁雨果故居在孚日广场,免费开放。因为下雨的关系,没有几个人。看了一圈就感叹了,雨果实在太有米了。我总是很难想象产生在衣食无忧条件下的作品,因为总是觉得艺术是苦难的朋友。([]
序六年前。我刚开始练习瑜伽,瑜伽馆的一位老师,每年都会去印度呆上一段时间,学习瑜伽。那一次,他准备带学生一同前往。我虽心向往之,但他计划的时间,我完全没有假期,只好作罢。我记得他对大家说,在印度不能乱吃东西,否则很容易拉肚子。一年前。深夜,妹夫从印度打来电话,说妹妹因染上登革热,高烧不退,住进了医院,白细胞和血小板不断减少,医生说,如果血小板继续减少,就需要输血,建议由直系亲属输血。妹妹已是第二次去印度,因妹夫被成都的公司外派到德里,负责印度市场的销售,所以这两年的十一,她都会去印度探望他。前年呆了一月,她安然无恙。怎么这一次,只是因为被蚊子叮咬,就染上了登革热?而事实上,每年9、10月份,都是印度中北部地区登革热高发期,卫生条件的不完善便是重要原因。当时,我对蟋蟀头说,没想到,我会因这种原因去印度。赶紧上网查询如何办理印度证。妹夫说,再等一晚,看这晚我妹的身体状况再作决定。所幸,那一晚妹妹的相关指数开始出现好转,并于三天后顺利出院。但,“明年向日葵色板官方去印度吧”,就这样提上了议程。在S姐的建议下,向日葵色板官方提前大半年就订好了去印度的往返机票。我不是喜欢做功略的人,但想去的地方太多,时间却太少,提前做好计划,便能让旅行变得从容点。尤其是,印度软件业发达,提前四个月便能在网上订火车票,电子票打印出来,就可直接使用,方便程度远甚于中国铁路;印度的许多旅馆都有自己的网站,可网上在线订房,也可通过发邮件的方式预订。当然,在订票订房的过程中,也发生过种种问,种种纠结,和阿三们不断通过邮件进行沟通。但渐渐,我发现这也很有趣,我的印度之行,似乎提前几个月便已开始。我关心行程,蟋蟀头却只关心安全。毕竟,这是一个不可思议的国度。不可思议,并不是我说的,这可是印度旅游局的全球宣传口号:Incredible India不可思议的印度。今年7月30日和31日,接连发生在印度北部的两次大停电事故,使得印度半个国家瘫痪,6亿多人的日常生活受到影响,占印度总人口的一半左右。美联社称:“有史以来最大的停电事故已由印度创造!”同样是7月下旬,印度东北部阿萨姆邦土著与穆斯林移民爆发种族冲突,并酿成大规模流血事件。8月25日,又发生两起新的攻击,使得该邦因骚乱死亡人数累计接近90人,数千人流离失所。因太多人逃离,一度造成该地区的铁路中枢系统瘫痪。所以,蟋蟀头的担心,并非毫无道理。我和他解释,向日葵色板官方去的虽然是印度北部,但主要是在拉贾斯坦邦,和那个发生冲突的地区没有一点关系。至于停电嘛,好吧,我也不知道到时是否会发生,但,如果发生的时候,向日葵色板官方可以身在其中,我觉得这也非常有劲。的确,对于爱冒险的我来说,印度正因为种种不可思议,才充满无限魅力。在游记开始之前,让向日葵色板官方先来唱颂一次OM,shanti shanti shantihi (欧姆,香缇 香缇 香缇 嘿)这是向日葵色板官方每次瑜伽课开始和结束时,都会唱颂的一句话。OM,被瑜伽认为是最古老最神圣的梵音,是万物源头的声音,是内在的声音。而香缇,则意为平和、和谐。这也是我在瓦拉纳西的恒河河祭时听到的唱颂声,在日落时的斋浦尔、焦特浦尔城市上方回响的晚祷声。。。唱颂OM的力量,可为你打开心扉,将内心做一次清理。因为我希望你能暂时抛开关于印度的种种成见与偏见,跟随我的游记来一次印度之旅。以平和的心态,去看待印度的好与不好。毕竟,正因这些神奇,成就了这个不可思议的国度。一、抵达...........................................................P5二、捡了一对夫妇逛红堡.....................................P8三、火车旅行....................................................

火车篇作为铁轨上的国度,印度是亚洲最早拥有铁路系统的国家,至今已有150多年的铁路历史。铁路总长63200多公里,亚洲第二、世界第三。到印度旅行,不能不坐火车,因为它是最便捷的交通工具。而且,在这个不靠谱的国家,尽管火车晚点现象严重,但还是要比乘飞机靠谱许多。 1、购票网站www.cleartrip.com 非常好用的购票网站,不仅可以订火车票,也可订机票及住宿。 提前四个月就可订票。座位等级分为:AC First Class(1A)/AC2 Tier/ AC3 Tier/AC Chair Car(CC)/Sleeper(SL)/Second sitting(2s)带AC的都是空调车厢,AC1是软卧,分隔成一间间,有房门;AC2与AC3都是空调硬卧,区别在于AC2是两层卧铺,AC3是三层卧铺。 印度有严格的等级制,体现在火车上就是,非该等级的乘客不得随意进入。一般乘坐AC的都是社会阶层比较高的印度人,素质相对较高,车厢比较干净整洁。而乘坐二等座的则是社会地位较低的印度人,车厢内脏乱差,甚至连窗户也没。 印度火车票不贵,与中国相比,便宜很多。天气热的时候去印度,建议还是选空调车厢吧,对自己好一点,没啥不对。当然,如果以体验为名,想和当地印度人挤二等车厢,那你得作好万全的心理准备。但如果是单身女性上路,严重不建议。 2、cleartrip今年的订票新规,账号必须与印度铁路局IRCTC的账号相关联,但IRCTC的账号又必须用印度当地的手机号注册并激活。此新规一度让准备去印度的同学不知所措,但很快便有同学找到相应解决办法,并通过一次次实践加以完善。前人栽树,后人乘凉,详细的账号注册功略请参考此帖:《完全图解印度火车账号注册成功》https//bbs.qyer.com/viewthread.php?tid=635989&extra=page%3D1 3、订火车票是实名制,详细到还需写明性别与年龄。用VISA或者MasterCard的信用卡进行网上支付。订票成功后,打印出来,便可直接使用。火车上列车员会查一次票,出示打印出来的电子票即可。AC First ClassAC2AC3 住宿篇大多时候,都是在火车上睡一宿,第二天早晨到。再加上乘火车可以预先知道出发与到达的时间,所以时间相对比较确定,建议提前预定旅馆,再要求旅馆提供接站向日葵视频色板APP官网,既可避免在火车站与tutu司机砍价,在路上被tutu司机忽悠,还可节省车费(向日葵色板官方的六段火车,全是免费接站)以及时间。也许你会问,如果少了这些,是不是少了很多体验?当然不会,因为除了长途坐火车,在一个城市里的交通主要还是tutu,你被他们忽悠以及反忽悠的机会多了去了。一、推荐预定住宿的网站:1、www.booking.com,网页显示可选择中文,而且每个旅馆都有世界各地游客的点评,非常简单好用。2、www.cleartrip.com,印度本地的网站,从网站界面上说,和booking.com一样好用,但全英文的页面,对于中国人来说,肯定不如全中文页面来得清楚。而且有时同一个旅店,在cleartrip上订需预先付费,但booking就不需要,而且在入住日期前几天,还可无条件取消预订。所以此次行程,如果没有旅店的官方网站,我就在booking.com上预定。二、推荐查看旅店评价的网站:www.tripadvisor.in中文版即 到到网此网站只能查询,不能预订,所以从某个角度来说,上面的点评比较中肯。即使是别人游记中推荐的旅馆,建议你还是来此网站上看看大家对该旅馆的评价。虽然个人感受都比较主观,也许一只老鼠就可毁掉你对这家旅馆的所有好印象,也可能会因一个小花园而对它赞不绝口。尽管如此,综合大多数人的点评,你还是可以有个比较全面的了解,以更好做出你的选择。所以,向日葵色板官方此次行程订的七家旅馆,除了最后一家稍微有点不值,其余都非常好。为了方便大家参考,我把预订的七家旅馆逐一作个点评。但需要提醒的是,房间不同、时间不同,房价差异会很大。每年10月下旬至3月,印度较为凉爽,比较适合旅行,房价会比夏季价格偏贵。 1、德里——Hotel Hari Piorko价格: Rs.1650+10%= Rs.1815/晚 住一晚 从机场接机Rs.700预订方式:www.book.com预订点评:位置非常好,位于背包客云集的帕哈甘吉地区,也就是鼎鼎大名的Main Bazaar。距离新德里火车站500米,距离康诺特广场1公里。我通过邮件,预订了酒店的接机向日葵视频色板APP官网,对方在邮件里告诉我,到酒店前台付出租车的费用。可到了酒店,工作人员却出尔反尔,明明说好是Rs.700,却要收Rs.800,当然,最后也只收了Rs.700。另外,向日葵色板官方到酒店住下时已是凌晨三点,淋浴只有冷水,没有热水。关于淋浴,我曾特地在邮件里和酒店确认过,因为在tripadsvisor上有人点评说,酒店晚上没有热水淋浴。酒店在邮件里保证,一定有热水淋浴的,请我放心。说得那么肯定,结果还是没热水。不过,到了早晨,热水淋浴倒是蛮好的。除了那两点,该酒店各方面都还不错,在tripadvisor上的口碑很好,也是cleartrip推荐的酒店之一。推荐指数:★★★☆☆其余酒店参考:Ginger Hotel(Ginger New Delhi):距离新德里火车站200米,连锁酒店,类似如家。坐机场快线到火车站,出来后对面就是。https//www.gingerhotels.com/HotelSearchResults/Default.aspx本打算预订这家酒店,但提前几个月,网站就显示新德里店房间全满。据说这只是酒店的营销策略而已,因为新德里店位置较好,大家往往都订这家店,而导致在德里的另一连锁店没有生意,所以一般只会提前一点时间开放预订。我觉得酒店这种想法很奇怪,向日葵色板官方并不会因为你这家店满了,就选择你的另一家店,我完全可以选择相同地段的其他店。印度人的思维模式有时真的很奇怪。 2、瓦拉纳西——Scindhia Guest House价格:Rs.1800 + 12.42% tax = Rs.2025/晚(含早餐)有阳台,有空调,有冰箱 住两晚预订方式:酒店网站https//www.scindhiaguesthouse.com/index.html 在线预订Email:scindhiaguesthouse@yahoo.com点评:酒店就在恒河边,每个房间都面向恒河。因为在焚尸台Scindhia Ghat旁边,所以酒店的名字是Scindhia Guest House。酒店非常干净,地板擦得很亮,和外面的环境相比宛如两个世界。酒店口碑极好,最好提前预订,但很多人都抱怨发了邮件去订房,却没有任何回音,只好放弃。建议直接在酒店网页上在线预订。我当时在网上在线填写预订表格并提交,十七天后,酒店发来邮件,确认我的预订。虽然我对这家酒店强烈推荐,但我写到这里,刚看了一下网站,相同的房间,房价已涨至Rs.3373,房价有效期从2012-10-1至2013-3-31。推荐指数:★★★★★其余酒店参考:Alka Hotel, www.hotelalkavns.com因座落在恒河边,被好些网友称为瓦拉纳西的首选。我发邮件询价,然后看tripadsvisor上对该酒店的最新评价都不太好,说房间旧,不干净,向日葵视频色板APP官网也不好。酒店回我邮件告诉价格,尽管房价比Scindhia Guest House便宜许多,我还是没有选择这家。房间外的阳台相连向日葵色板官方的房间,有阳台,有空调,有冰箱从阳台上看到的恒河风景 3、阿格拉——Sai Home Stay Bed & Breakfast价格:Rs.1550/晚(含早餐)住一晚预订方式:www.book.com预订酒店Email:saihomestay@yahoo.com点评:选中这家,只能说是缘分,看tripadvisor上的评价,很多人认为是在印度住过的最好的一家酒店,便让我立即决定选择它。尽管从旅馆的名字来看,似乎只是一家小得不能再小的家庭旅馆。旅馆真的不大,只有几个房间,但房间却挺大,装修很新,很干净。有一个小花园,小得只能放下一张桌子,但在那里吃早餐,却是非常温馨。老板很亲切,很有气质,英语说得非常好,一看就属于印度的中上层人士。他家的菜也做得非常好吃。尤其是餐具,精致漂亮,感觉他是一个很会生活的人。而且这家还是向日葵色板官方此行中最便宜的一家旅馆!推荐指数:★★★★★向日葵色板官方的房间小花园 4、斋普尔——The Umaid bhawan heritage Hotel价格:Rs. 2600/晚(含早餐)有空调,有冰箱 住两晚预订方式:酒店网站https//www.umaidbhawan.com/index.htm 在线预订,需输入信用卡信息作为预定担保,如果在预订时间没有入住该酒店,会被扣掉相应房费。点评:这是向日葵色板官方行程中房价第二贵的一家酒店,因火车晚上 22:20才到斋浦尔,加上晚点因素,估计向日葵色板官方到酒店都快24点了,但也要算一晚的房费,定这么贵的房是否有必要?但酒店网页上的照片实在太漂亮了,美轮美奂的,让我完全失去抵抗力。等向日葵色板官方入住后,我有多庆幸选择了这家酒店!从进房间的一刻开始,我就给房间的每个角落拍照;第二天起床吃早餐,也是从门外的露台茶几,拍到餐厅;晚上又继续拍阳台上的露天餐厅与歌舞表演。拉贾斯坦在建筑和绘画上的艺术风格,在这家酒店得以淋漓尽致地呈现,精致的壁画、装饰,屋顶、屋角细致描绘的花纹,无不透着浓浓的异域气息。免费供应的早餐,并非简单的土司、蛋卷,而是丰盛的自助餐,味道还非常赞。晚餐是在露台上的餐厅,不仅有现场歌舞表演,还有现烤的羊肉,食物味道不错,我俩都爱上了那里一道用茄子做的菜肴。而且,我在这里喝到了来印度后的第一瓶啤酒。要知道,印度的很多餐厅都不供应啤酒的,因为大多数人不吃荤不喝酒不抽烟。推荐指数:★★★★★其余酒店参考:Hotel Pearl Palace, https//hotelpearlpalace.com/LP推荐,网上口碑很好。但我提前四个月预订定,也没订到,酒店回我邮件,说已客满。我很庆幸这家挤满驴友的酒店客满,有时,我比较喜欢能找一些与众不同,但又很有特色的旅馆。 5、乌代浦尔——Hibiscus Guest House 价格:Rs.2000/晚 住两晚预订方式:www.hibiscusinudaipur.com/index.html 发邮件预订酒店Email:hibiscus-udaipur@hotmail.com点评:这家酒店由tripadvisor推荐,网友评价排名第六。距离那家鼎鼎大名的dreamheaven guest house很近,走路5分钟就到。之所以没有选择据说位置超赞的dreamheaven,是因为那家被 LP推荐的酒店,历史实在太长,完全可以想像酒店陈设的老旧。在tripadvisor上果然看到很多这样的评价,让我毅然决定选择一个新旅馆。这家酒店距离湖边仅5分钟,有个雅致的小花园,非常安静。住了整整两天,除了我俩,没看到一个住客,以致于蟋蟀头在第一天就有想换酒店的冲动。我却很喜欢这样的静谧。没住dreamheaven,但可以去那里吃饭啊,据说那里的食物味道很好。但去了dreamheaven后,我非常庆幸自己的选择,dreamheaven实在太老旧了,窄小漆黑的过道,让我感觉随时都有老鼠在这里串来串去。第二天去dreamheaven旁边的一家高级酒店Karohi Haveli上厕所,顺便参观一圈后,更是让我对自己的选择欣喜。Karohi Haveli几层楼高,是家名副其实的酒店,但个人感觉酒店大而冰冷,没有小旅馆那种温暖气息。房间也没有比Hibiscus 更好。Karohi Haveli是一个网友游记中的强烈推荐,她是因为老鼠乱串,房间环境不好,从dreamheaven中逃出来的,于是把Karohi Haveli描绘得如天堂般。我很早就写了邮件想要预订这家旅馆,在邮件中我写了check in的时间,向酒店询价,酒店回我邮件,告诉了我几种房间的房价。价格很高,我又是一轮邮件和他砍价,最后他同意给我一个折扣价,面朝湖的Super DeLUXE ,Rs.3000/晚。尽管房费依然偏贵,但我想,既然在印度最浪漫的城市,住贵一点的酒店无妨。于是马上回邮件,告诉他我就定这间了,请他确认我的预订。没想到,酒店回我,这个价格只在4月-9月有效,不适用于我预订的10月。真是晕倒,我在第一封询价的邮件里就写得很清楚了,我抵达的时间是10月7日!价格不适用于10月,他给我报价干嘛?还这么折腾要了一个折扣价。再问他,那10月的价格何时出来?他回答说不知道。于是,我彻底放弃这家酒店。印度人有时教条得真是不可理喻。推荐指数:★★★★★其他酒店参考:1、dreamheaven

点评:酒店位置非常好,屋顶餐厅和阳台上都可以看到梅兰加尔古堡,感觉古堡近在咫尺。酒店老板热情得让你难以招架,亲自领向日葵色板官方进房间,介绍周围景点,赠送地图。他希望蟋蟀头帮他拍点照片放在他的酒店网页上,但他的举动又让向日葵色板官方有点不快。向日葵色板官方临走时,他竟要求向日葵色板官方给他的员工付小费,向日葵色板官方虽没有拒绝,但感觉奇怪。淋浴不好。于我而言,一旦淋浴不好,对该酒店的印象就会大打折扣。如果楼顶阳台上的煤气罐没开,就没有热水。而酒店并不会24小时打开煤气罐,晚上如果没有特别提醒,肯定会关掉。但这一点,向日葵色板官方最初并不知晓,老板领向日葵色板官方进房间时,讲了很多,却没讲这点。只说打开淋浴后几分钟就会有热水。晚上我洗澡时,等了十多分钟,也仅一点温水。等蟋蟀头去洗澡时,已经纯粹是冷水。因夜已深,我不太想再去叫醒酒店人员。但第二天早上,淋浴依然是冷水,出去问老板,他面带笑容地告诉我说,“洗澡前和向日葵色板官方说一下就行了!”无语。我洗澡前还要和你说吗?推荐指数:★★★☆☆向日葵色板官方的房间酒店的露台餐厅房间的阳台

点评:这是向日葵色板官方此行所住的七家酒店中,最贵的一家,但也是最令人失望的一家。可能正应了那句话,期望越大,失望越大。网上介绍,此家酒店距离杰伊瑟尔梅尔古堡只有500米远,精致的哈维利,只有七个房间,每个房间都不一样。哈维利haveli,是拉贾斯坦的传统民居,由石头筑成,装饰华丽,以石雕匠的精工细作为特色。想像中,住在金色的沙漠之城,住在具有异域风情的哈维利里,感觉一点非常美好。此家酒店的确是以石头筑成,有石头雕成的假窗,在桔黄色的灯光映衬下,拍出来的照片也挺美,但仅此而已。房间不大,没有桌子或茶几让蟋蟀头摆弄他的笔记本,让每天都要导照片看照片的他恼火不已。淋浴也不好。如果要洗澡,只能白天,或者晚上22点前。22点后就只有冷水。房间由石头砌成,隔音效果却不好。清晨向日葵色板官方还未醒,工作人员在与向日葵色板官方相隔一个房间的洗手间洗拖帕的声音,真是声声清脆,声声入耳。推荐指数:★☆☆☆☆ 功略写完了。我提供的功略较为简单扼要,只有最基本的证与住行,并没有各种注意事项等细节。那些细节,我更愿意用游记的形式与你分享。我认为,功略应该成为你的拐仗,而非限制;要因为功略,使你的旅行更加从容,而不要因为功略,给自己设定太多条条框框。如果你有完全充足的时间,也许你可以完全无视功略,走到哪儿算哪儿。也许处处有惊喜,但也有可能惊喜变成惊吓。不管怎样,用享受的心情开始旅行吧。游记,正式开始。。。 一、抵达于我而言,很少有提前大半年做旅行计划这件事。印度,是第一次。出发那天是晚上2105,白天上班,我竟开始拉肚子。暗自嘲弄自己,不至于吧,印度还没到了!但庆幸的是,在印度的17天,我没有拉过一次肚子。从上海直飞德里,全程六小时。晚上抵达时,北京时间凌晨340,但印度时间却是 0110。是的,印度与中国有2.5个小时的时差。来到印度的这一刻,时间便又回流了2个半小时。刚走进机场大楼,就有一些同航班的同学驻足,对着这两幅俊男靓女的照片拍个不停。虽不好意思加入其中,但我还是在他们离去后,不能免俗地赶快按了一张。为什么不好意思?因为,这是厕所!先暂时抛开你想像中的脏乱差的印度吧,至少对于初来乍到的向日葵色板官方,呈现在向日葵色板官方眼前的英迪拉·甘地国际机场,干净、明亮、现代,甚至,透着一股禅的气息。在办理出关的地方,一面金色圆盘为底的装饰墙上,有11个手势各异的佛手印,唯一的相同之处是,掌心中都有一朵莲花。手印,是瑜伽修炼时手的姿式。瑜伽认为,手印象征着特殊的愿力,会带来身体与意念的力量。手印分为很多种,不同的手印,对身心有着不同的影响。比如,第一张照片中左数第二个,拇指与中指相连,是能量手印,意即将上天中的能量善加利用,是瑜伽中最常用的手印之一。而莲花,则是印度的国花,与佛教与印度教都有很深的渊源。蟋蟀头正在柜台,等候印度大叔审核证。拍这张照时,我还本能地在想:“这里能拍吗?”毕竟那时距离向日葵色板官方去朝鲜一个月,在朝鲜时,这也不让拍那也不让拍的阴影尚存。要知道,在平壤机场是不允许拍照的!但这里不是朝鲜,这是印度。印度虽贫穷,但却是民主国家。不要说拍机场,连拍军人都可以。 蟋蟀头去行李区域等候行李,为节约时间,我准备去找地方换点印度卢比。所有人的攻略都会提醒你,机场汇率不好,不要多换。不要多换,但也得换一点,不然出去的车费也付不了。距离行李区域不远,有个FoREIgn exchange,尽管有前辈功略提及,机场有四家Exchange Bureau,每家的汇率会稍有不同,但如此夜深,我懒得去做比较了,只想赶快离开机场,去旅馆好好睡一觉。于是径直去这家排队。正在排队,有几个中国人从另一个方向过来,去柜台上的电脑,查看了一下汇率,然后对同伴说:“这里的汇率比之前那家好。”一听这话,我心中暗笑,还真让我撞上了。换汇要护照,汇率USD1=Rs49.1。我换了100美元,拿到手只有Rs4870,不用说,少掉的Rs40就是手续费了。出发前就预订了旅馆,因为住在背包客云集的帕哈甘吉地区,担心像尼泊尔的泰美尔一样如迷宫般难寻,又是深更半夜,便同时预订了接机向日葵视频色板APP官网。等我们取了行李,换好钱出来,一个举着写有我名字的纸片的小伙子,已在大厅里等候。按前人的攻略,最好在机场办理一个airtel的手机卡,3G上网非常方便,而且打电话的费用也非常便宜。于是,和小伙子说明,我得先办一个airtel的手机卡。他往右边一指,“在那边。”右边?不对啊,攻略说出来后左走,就有airtel的柜台。“印度人说的话都不可信,”此时,对于初到印度的我来说,前人的攻略对我影响很深。我自顾自地向左边走去,那里的确有一个办理手机卡的柜台,但柜台上面赫然写着:A I R C E L。aircel 与 airtel,仅一个字母之差,怎么回事?我站在门口,仔细端详了半天。“airtel在那边!”这时,接站的小伙子又指着右边对我说。好吧,信他一次。跟着他往右边走,airtel的柜台果然在那儿。其实确切地说,如果眼神好,在出口处往右边一望,就可看到airtel的招牌。好吧,前人的攻略,有时还真的不可信,宁可信一次印度人。此时,正有三个中国人在airtel的柜台上办手机卡,柜台里的阿三正忙着用手机给其中一个男生拍照,另外两个女生等候中。我问阿三还要等多久?我急着走。阿三回我,很快就好。但看他不慌不忙的速度,我真觉得这“很快就好”根本就不可能。接站小伙子又说话了,“回旅馆去办吧,那里也有airtel,费用还比这里便宜。”这一次,我决定马上相信他。我和蟋蟀头跟在小伙子的后面,出了机场,向停车场走去。他没有帮向日葵色板官方拿行李,一个人自顾自地快步走在前面。“他怎么不帮向日葵色板官方拿包呢?”我问蟋蟀头,难道印度人的接站习惯就是,不帮客人拿包?英迪拉·甘地国际机场距离我们要去的帕哈甘吉Paharganj 地区,大约20公里左右。夜色中的德里,一片安静。同夜色一样安静的,还有这个开车的小伙子。不说印度人喜欢搭讪吗?他怎么这么安静?我心中暗自嘀咕。当然,在后面的十多天行程中,经历了印度人的各种搭讪后,我只能说,印度人的确非常喜欢说话,但也总有些人,不是那么喜欢说话。大约半小时后,出租车停在了向日葵色板官方预定的Hotel Hari Piorko。车停下来后,他转过头,向我要车费。车费,旅馆给我的邮件中,不是说明车费Rs.700在旅馆的前台付吗?我和他解释,旅馆的邮件中是这么说明,我也只能到前台去付款,请他和向日葵色板官方一起去前台拿钱。他又嘀嘀咕咕说了一大堆话,不过我一句也没听懂,大意应该还是希望我能直接把钱付给他吧。我问蟋蟀头的意见。他说,既然旅馆和你约定了,在前台付车费,就还是去前台付吧,否则,你现在付给他,旅馆向你要,怎么办?我觉得蟋蟀头说的有道理。于是,我们不管他继续啰嗦,下车拿了行李就走进了旅馆。一个白发白胡子白衫的老头坐在前台,正在给一位准备退房的老外办理手续。一本硕大的登记簿放在他的前面。后来发现,每个旅馆的登记簿都和这个一模一样,像是政府规定的专用旅馆登记簿。在等候老头给老外办退房手续时,我问小伙子,“旅馆付你多少钱接机?”他说,“Rs.550。” 啊,旅馆赚得挺多。看着他可怜巴巴的眼神,我真想马上把钱付给他。好不容易等老头办完退房手续,他向我要车费了,“Rs.800”。“什么?Rs.800?你邮件里不是写好Rs.700吗?“”那就Rs.750。“老头面不改色地回答。”NO。“我准备一点也不让步。不付给他Rs.550,我就很守信用了,他居然还向我要Rs.800 ?可惜我只打印了booking.com的预定单,没有打印我和他的邮件内容。于是,我把自己整理的攻略往他面前一放,指给他看我在他的酒店名称下注明的:”在前台付pick up Rs.700- extra.“ 其实这并非邮件,他居然扫了一眼后,二话不说,马上就认账了。从他信口开河到最后认账,老头脸上的表情始终没有丝毫改变。看来,他玩这一招是玩习惯了。能唬一个就唬一个。其实,在机场坐预付费的taxi,据说是Rs.400多。他报价后,我没还价,是因为想着深更半夜安排接机,挺辛苦的,也没差多少钱,也就算了。没想到他还玩这一招,真让我觉得后悔,真该砍下他的价才对。 check in后,一个小工帮我们提着行李,领向日葵色板官方到了楼上的房间。房间很大,也很干净。那个king size的大床,实际上是由两个单人床拼成。后来我发现,印度好多酒店的大床都是这样拼合而成。沙发、电视、空调,房间里倒是一应俱全。据说德里因为是首都的缘故,酒店的性价比都特别差。所以,在这样热门的地段,这样的房间,这样的房价的确不算贵。对了,当时的汇率 1印度卢比=0.1182人民币元。一般我和蟋蟀头想把价格换算成人民币以作比较时,喜欢直接除以10,比较简单易算。所以,这个房价,差不多就是在北京上海如家的价格。小工去帮向日葵色板官方买矿泉水和打火机。因为在印度,自来水是根本不能饮用的,除非你有印度人的肠胃。不一会儿,小工回来了,把东西递给向日葵色板官方后,和我算钱,“两瓶矿泉水Rs.33/瓶,打火机Rs.40,一共Rs.106。”“你不说打火机只要Rs.20吗?怎么变成Rs.40呢?”我问他。“Rs.20的打火机卖完了,这个Rs.40的打火机比较好看一点。”他对我解释道。好吧,就算他说的是真的吧。我可不想这么晚了,还为这点钱和他斤斤计较。我掏出Rs.150给他,“谢谢,不用找了。”小工告辞而去。准备洗澡,才发现淋浴根本就没有热水,只有冷水。想着我在邮件里和酒店确认深夜是否有热水淋浴,他在回信中可是斩钉截铁地说“Don't worry.” 看来,问了也是白问。印度人的话还真不能信!在机场时,我还因不相信接站小伙的话而自责,现在,我又再次确信,印度人的话的确不能相信。唉,洗个冷水脸睡吧。谁让这是印度呢?! 二、捡了一对夫妇逛红堡早上起床,淋浴终于有热水了,而且水还挺好。酒店的退房时间是中午12点,等我们起床收拾完毕,已差不多12点了。因下午5点过就要坐火车去瓦拉纳西,所以向日葵色板官方准备先下楼和前台说一下寄存行李的事。从电梯出来,还没走两步,就被一男一女两个中国人叫住,“你们是中国人啊!”一到国外,能遇到中国人,的确会多分亲切。原来这对夫妇来自广东,到德里已经四天了。但这四天哪儿也没去,就在酒店睡觉。还从广东带了一只煲来,给自己煲汤降火。因酒店房间不干净,他们便换到这间酒店,说是比之前那家酒店干净好多。女孩叫sofoia,一个自来熟的女孩,她告诉我说,他们在印度会呆二十天,却没准备功略,问是否可以借我的攻略看看。我把手中的攻略递给她,她翻翻后说道,“这么详细啊,借我copy一下吧。”得知他们也没吃饭,便约他们到楼上餐厅一起吃饭,顺便让他们copy攻略。中午时分,餐厅里一个客人也没。估计住店的人,这个时间都到外面去玩了吧!向日葵色板官方四人找了阳台上一个桌子坐下,他们让向日葵视频色板APP官网员帮忙去复印攻略,然后向日葵色板官方点餐说话聊天。在得知向日葵色板官方下午准备去红堡后,这对夫妇打算跟向日葵色板官方同行。于是,在印度的第一天,向日葵色板官方就多了一对旅伴。而且在后面的行程中,又不断遇到新的旅伴。一位修理人员,似乎对坐在餐厅中的向日葵色板官方四人孰视无睹,自顾自地开始用电钻在墙上钻洞。尖利的电钻声吵得向日葵色板官方讲话也听不清。去向餐厅向日葵视频色板APP官网人员提出抗议,居然一点效果也没,我们只得被迫坐到阳台上去用餐。一推开那扇通往阳台的门,一股热浪夹杂着各种嘈杂声扑面而来。深夜抵达德里时的宁静印象,瞬间瓦解。鸽子扑愣愣地在阳台上飞来飞去,反倒弄得向日葵色板官方不好靠近,生怕惊到它们。实际上,向日葵色板官方真是过虑了。在印度,没有动物会害怕人。 对于初来乍到的向日葵色板官方,哪里会嫌街上吵闹,只会感到新奇无比,趴在阳台的栏杆上四处张望。街上人车拥挤。汽车、出租车、牛车、TUTU车、人力三轮车、摩托车,全部后扎堆在一起,行人却自在地穿行其中。“原来在印度被奉为神的牛也会拉车啊!”在尼泊尔看惯了到处闲着的牛,以致于我对拉车的牛也会大惊小怪。当然,在后来的行程中,我每天都会在街头看见各种闲逛的牛。但在杰伊瑟尔梅尔和一位司机的聊天中,也终于明白,印度的牛虽然罩着一层神圣的光环,但实际上却连温饱这最基本的生活需求也达不到。 远处突然传来一阵敲锣打鼓的声音,向日葵色板官方把脖子伸得老长,循声望去,一辆打扮花哨、车头插着旗子、车顶坐满人的汽车向向日葵色板官方这个方向慢慢驶来。是有什么庆祝活动吗?向日葵色板官方也跟着锣鼓声兴奋起来,可惜,车驶到靠近向日葵色板官方的一个三叉路口,一转弯,便在向日葵色板官方的视线中消失了。“快点出去玩吧!”此时的向日葵色板官方,早已按捺不住内心的兴奋,想要赶快融入那无比嘈杂混乱,却又让人激动万分的花花世界。简单吃完这顿早午餐,我俩便把行李搬到楼下,准备寄存。前台叫来一位小伙子,让向日葵色板官方跟着他去寄存。于是,向日葵色板官方跟着他,又重新返回到二楼。他掏出钥匙,打开一间房门,把向日葵色板官方的驮包往行李架上一放,问向日葵色板官方房号,然后把房号写在一个上,往驮包上一挂就OK啦。我问他,“你不给我什么凭证吗?那我凭什么来取包?”他说,“取包时,说你的房号就可以了。”这样也可以?我满肚子狐疑。我已经退房了,现在的房间很快就会住进新的客人吧,我也只需报个房号就可以取走行李?不会搞错吗?“No problem!”他回答我。印度人喜欢说No problem,而事实上,向日葵色板官方认为很多不可思议的地方,于他们而言,真的不是什么问。他们有他们的习惯,仅此而已。只是向日葵色板官方不能理解罢了。在后面的行程中,所有酒店寄存行李都用的是这种方式,告诉他你的房号就行,当然他们也一次都没弄错过。 下午1330时分的德里街头,阳光灼烈,热浪袭人。sofoia 用帽子和口罩把自己包裹得严严实实。而此时的蟋蟀头,在T恤外还套了一件摄影背心,一副摄影人的准行头。当然,这件摄影背心,他在印度也只穿过这一天。因为,印度的高温与烈日,把蟋蟀头的专业形象彻底打败。 酒店距离新德里火车站仅500米,因Main Bazar上TUTU车较少,不利于讲价,向日葵色板官方准备步行到火车站再找TUTU车。火车站门口TUTU车的确很多,但就像商量好了一样,众口一辞,去红堡的车费一律Rs.100/辆,根本没有讨价还价的余地。于是,向日葵色板官方要了两辆TUTU车,一前一后向红堡奔去。在印度坐TUTU车,实在是一个惊险刺激又好玩的游戏,尤其是在车辆拥挤的路上,又或者在狭窄的小巷。每个司机似乎都车技了得,左冲右突,灵巧无比。车与车之间经常擦肩而过,最近的距离似乎只有0.1,车速却丝毫不会减慢,也没有什么交通事故发生。司机总是悠然自得,只有我们这些乘客才会一惊一乍。因路上交通堵塞,大概花了近半小时,我们才抵达红堡。下车时,司机示意向日葵色板官方,向日葵色板官方得走前面的地道,才能穿行到路的右边。因为在印度,车辆是靠道路左侧行驶。地道阴暗,味道难闻。有乞讨的小孩坐在墙角,也有流浪的人躺成一排。眼之所及,只觉凄凉,不禁让我想起电影《贫民窟中的百万富翁》中的场景。快步走出地道,重新回到杂乱的街面,我不禁深深地呼了一口气。阳光灿烂的感觉,实在比阴暗阴沉要好太多。转个弯,沙岩筑成的红堡便出现在了向日葵色板官方面前。到了红堡,先迫不及待地来一张到此一游照。虽然红堡是德里的重要景点之一,但对于将要去拉贾斯坦邦的人,往往都会直接忽略掉这个城堡。因为,在历史悠久的拉贾斯坦,散布着众多迷人的宫殿与古堡,一路走去,直到你审美疲劳。如此一来,德里的红堡,相较之下,似乎就逊色许多,以致于大多数人都直接把它cancel掉。我之所以想去红堡,只因为它是由沙· 贾汉所建。这个因建造了泰姬陵而名垂千秋的国王,因酷爱艺术与建筑,在他统治期间,一些极好的莫卧尔艺术和建筑的精品被创造了出来。在泰姬陵动工后的第七年,1638年,沙· 贾汉开始修建红堡,历时十年完工。([]

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 evalsuate 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 birt
