《最后的藏地:甘青川大环线》 序2007年,随着一篇帖子误打误撞地进入了川西的藏区后,在接下去的几年,藏地,就像魔咒般地吸引着我。我和我的兄弟,因此,有了藏地五年计划。今年,是我们行游藏地的第五年,也是藏地五年计划的最后一年。五年来,我们很幸运,也很执著:07年,我们第一次来到了藏区。我们惊艳于新都桥的光影和八美的柔情;而穿越四姑娘让我们第一次有了驴的感觉。08年,贡嘎的壮美、剪子弯的高原草甸、外星球般的海子山、仙乃日的威严、雨崩的神秘和一妻多夫以及雨崩小学的张老师和十个小时的的梅里穿越,更给我烙下了深刻的印象。09年,我们终于走了川藏南线。跨过金沙江,真正来到了西藏。来古冰川、米堆冰川、嘎瓦龙雪山和天池。。。无不让我深深怀念!10年,21天,我们完成了阿里大环线的穿越。珠峰的夕照和普兰的宁静;玛旁雍措的深邃和拉昴措的诡异;古格的神秘和东嘎皮央遗址的凄凉;扎达的壮观和天堂般的文布;色林措的欢乐和仓姑寺的详和;以及一路相伴的藏野驴、藏羚羊、差点因高发下撤而割袍断义的兄弟和我的队友组成了我10年最美好的回忆。2011年,藏地五年计划的最后一年,我们走进了甘青川。。。 目录一、序二、出发前的纠结三、穿越夹金山四、西索民居和土司官寨五、关于马尔康的阿来和其它六、太阳河峡谷劳作的藏族小孩七、邂逅马尔康看花节八、色达:经幡扬起的是一颗宁静的心九、年龙寺:探访闭关修行的年龙上师仁波切十、班玛:天葬台、江日堂寺和非诚勿拢的刘婷婷十一、白玉寺:拜访著名的传奇人物----“年宝玉则的观鸟喇嘛”扎西桑俄十二、年宝玉则:僧人的笑容十三、放花无语对玛卿----穿越阿尼玛卿纪实十四、玛多:黄河之水天上来十五、走向共和十六、青海湖:不要问我从哪里来十七、大美祈连:卓尔山十八、阿柔大寺:最帅气喇嘛和可爱的藏民十九、门源:一片金色向着党 二十、西宁--合作:多民族聚集的和谐走廊二十一、扎尕那:遗世独立的非著名山峰 二十二、郎木寺:天葬台的诱惑二十三、红原:千回百转的黄河第一湾二十四、汶川:不能忘却的纪念二十五、结束语 二、出发前的纠结是甘川青还是川青甘?这是个问。时间进入到五月,10年同行阿里的队友开始活跃起来。西湖和本色不断邀约加入他们甘川青的队伍;我也开始谋划我的11年行程,但皆因种种不确定性没有允诺队友。首先是兄弟的不确定性,达华云里雾里,不置可否;另外一个刚加盟的小兄弟(耗子)想玩回大环线自驾;而我自己确定不了具体出发的时间。再者,今年,我必须得去色达。而西湖本色的队伍走的是甘-川-青,他们放弃了色达。而放弃色达是我不能容忍的。就这样,和原来阿里的队友失之交臂,以致于11年的行程只有风景,没有了风情;只有色彩,没有了精彩;只有英雄,没有了故事。五千公里的旷野,只有三个年近不惑的孤独的男人在自我装酷却无人欣赏。。。苏说,他就像旷野里的那只藏原羊一样孤独,只好不断地把白屁股炫耀以期待少许的目光。七月初,达华正式告知将携妻儿自驾;汶川突至暴雨和泥石流交通中断;而我家阁楼露台上的紫藤却突然枯萎。。。这无疑不是出发前的好兆头。耗子在暴雨、泥石流和枯萎的紫藤以及我们的七嘴八舌下终于决定放弃自驾。至此,我们终于决定七月初从成都出发。后来得知,本色当上了队长,拉起了原来阿里的队伍,过起了万花丛中一点绿的滋润日子;茗禅冒充强驴骗取信任穿越了贡嘎,留给我们的是嫉妒和羡慕;达华最终携妻带子自驾弃我们而去。。。七月,阿里英雄终于各自在路上。 三、穿越夹金山夹金山,并不是我们计划中的行程。汶川线的暴雨和泥石流让我们被迫放弃了原来的线路,我们只能绕道夹金山。夹金山,是一座英雄的山。夹金山位于四川省阿坝藏族羌族自治州小金县南部,与著名的四姑娘山风景区毗邻,距成都250公里。夹金山也是当年中国工农红军一方面军万里长征与红四方面胜利会师的地方。夹金山从此载入中国革命历史的光荣史。2011年的7月,是红色的7月。我们的行程就从这红色的夹金山开始了。夹金山垭口 红军达维会师1935年6月,中国工农红军第一方面军翻越夹金山与红四方面军在四川省阿坝州小金县达维乡正式会师。如今,达维会师已成为一处重温红色记忆的旅游景点。70年后,这里也成了一个旅游胜地。这里,也是世界第一只大熊猫的科学发现地,尽管我们没有发现大熊猫。 傍晚的夹金山沐浴在夕阳中。夏日的夹金山却犹如沐浴在秋色之中,傍晚时分的一缕夕阳打在藏居上。当年的红军,也许无暇这样的风景。 四、西索民居和土司官寨傍晚,我们终于抵达马尔康郊外的西索民居和卓克基土司官寨。西索民居卓克基土司官寨西索民居独具嘉绒藏族特色,保持了嘉绒先民“垒石为室”的传统建筑风格,寨子鳞次栉比、错落有致,远目望去犹如一座壁垒森严的古堡。整个民居从远处鸟瞰,便会惊奇地发现西索藏寨酷似藏族八宝图案中的“花依”图案(状如“中华结”,代表释伽牟尼的心),寨子中直来竖往、弯来拐去的青石板小道,把图案的线条展现的非常清晰。 藏寨全是三层石楼,底层饲养牲畜,第二层是厨房和住宿,三层是经堂和客房。民居建筑形如碉状,也称碉楼。房屋四周的墙体均用片石砌成,用黄泥粘合。墙体厚达1米,采用内直外收的砌法, 工匠们仅凭经验,砌出的石墙如刀切豆腐般整齐,棱角锐利,上窄下宽,整个墙体处于抗压状态,成为建筑的承重主体。加之内部木结构横梁的互相支撑拉合,整个建筑下大上小、重心向内、稳定性强。到最高处,碉楼四角顺势形成角锋,造成一种气势,最高处的石墙边缘加厚,避免墙表的平面化,增强立体感。房顶一分为二,前半部分为平顶,三面砌成矮墙;后半部分形成斜山式,覆盖石板或瓦。每层楼的窗户都外小内大,窗框很讲究,用上了雕刻、绘画、上彩等技巧,民族特色很浓。这种碉楼不仅冬暖夏凉,而且建筑艺术独特,审美价值高,就像一件件珍贵的艺术品。卓克基土司官寨位于距马尔康县城7公里的卓克基镇西索村。官寨依山而建,坐北朝南,被国际友人赞誉为“东方建筑史上的一颗明珠”。官寨始建于1918年清朝乾隆年间,为四层碉房,1936年毁于大火,1938年----1940年,土司索观赢组织人力进行重建。1935年7月,毛泽东同志及中央机关长征途中曾在官寨住宿一周。1988年,卓克基官寨被国务院列为第三批国家重点文物保护单位。卓克基土司官寨有着重要的历史文化以及丰富的旅游资源。 五、关于马尔康的阿来和其它值得说一句的是,马尔康是著名藏族作家阿来的家乡。阿来:1959年出生于马尔康,毕业于马尔康师范学校。2009年3月,阿来当选为四川省作协主席,现兼任中国作协副主席。从1994年《尘埃落定》写出至1998年出版其间,阿来由阿坝州一家杂志转辗到四川成都《科幻世界》由编辑到总编辑社长,《科幻世界》在阿来手里由一本杂志变为五六种,成为世界上发行量最大的科幻类杂志。数百万读者期待读到阿来新作。来之前,我不知道,马尔康就是阿来的家乡。在西索民居时,我的司机师傅轻轻说了一句:这就是阿来居住过的地方,小说《尘埃落定》的故事就发生在这里。轻描淡写的一句话,却触动了我的内心。阿来是我喜欢的一位作家。《尘埃落定》就是他的代表作,曾获得第五届茅盾文学奖。我喜欢的倒不是他的《尘埃落定》,而是他对西藏土地深沉的爱和对西藏发展自己独立的见解。虽然,我没看过他写的《格萨尔王》,但我欣赏他写《格萨尔王》的勇气和毅力。我有一本阿来的文集《看见》。在文中,阿来说:看哪,落定的尘埃又微微泛起,山间的大路上,细小的石英沙尘在阳光下闪烁出耀眼的光芒,在茫茫宇宙中漂浮不定。唉,一路都是落不定的尘埃!写完《格萨尔王》后,阿来说:王啊,今天我要把你的故事还给你,我要走出你的故事了。这是一个小说家的宿命,从一个故事向另一个故事漂泊。当一些所谓的有识之士忧虑于青藏铁路的建设时,阿来所说的话让我赞叹,他不同流和盲从于“有识之士”。阿来说:如果说,这条铁路的建成,对建设者是一个胜利,而对这条铁路经过的高原,对这条铁路所冲击的古老文化,对当地政府和老百姓,这到底是一个天降的福音,还是一个巨大的考验,全赖于面临这样一个新的机遇的人们有没有准备好去迎接挑战。我讨厌于一些看法。诸如,西藏的高原上架设高压线破坏景观;西藏的腹地通公路影响生态;西藏铁路和机场的建设是对环境和西藏文化的破坏。。。诸如此类,等等等等。当我们手拿IPAD,喝着咖啡,畅游在信息高速公路上时,我们有什么权力让西藏人民永远手持转筒匍匐着转经呢?五年了,当我周游在藏地时,更多看到的只是游客们猎奇的眼光和浅薄的认识,他们讨厌藏民用手机、讨厌藏民开着摩托车放牧;他们希望的西藏永远是原始、原始、再原始;他们希望把西藏割裂于现代文明之外。。。古老和现代的冲突是一个永恒的话。我崇拜甚至是膜拜西藏悠久的文化和宗教,但我也不排斥他们对现代文明和现代化的选择,我相信,这不是西藏人民的“被选择”。只是,在这种选择之前,正如阿来所说的,“全赖于面临这样一个新的机遇的人们有没有准备好去迎接挑战”。我想,在现代化、现代文明和西藏古老的历史、文化、宗教冲突中,我们不要做非此即彼的选择,我们所要关注的是,如何去寻找冲突间的结合点,以期待让西藏古老文化和宗教在现代文明前更加熠熠生辉,以期待西藏的环境在现代化面前妥善地予以保护。这才是真正考验政府和百姓的智慧。感谢阿来,祝福西藏。 六、太阳河峡谷劳作的藏族小孩这一天,除了色达五明佛学院让我震撼之外,就是这在田间劳作的藏族小孩的眼睛和笑容。 从清晨的马尔康醒来,昨晚的灯火辉煌已遗留在睡梦中。马尔康县城位于山谷之间,海拔并不高,只有2700米。县城规划整齐,湍急的索磨河穿城而过。清晨的马尔康夜幕下的马尔康霓虹闪烁,光影迷离。 在藏语里,马尔康的意思就是灯火旺盛的地方,据说此命名来至一位得道高僧。在藏地,这样的高僧往往又是伟大的预言家。今天,预言再次成真。我们沿着大渡河的上游---太阳河峡谷前行。山涧,雾气升腾。大渡河咆哮东去,雨后的太阳河峡谷清新诡异。晨雾中的藏居很是抢眼,早起的藏民已走向田间地头。 藏居、碉楼、高压塔。虽然,高压电线塔很不应景,但我希望大家更多的是看到它给西藏人民带来的光明而给以包容。有一种风景,她遗世独立。有一种力量,她坚如磐石。 有一种行走,叫做虔诚。也有一种行走,叫做造作。中午,我们来到了壤塘县大伊里村。这一路,最吸引我们的就是藏式民居。 这一带的藏式民居三楼均以柳条编制而成,上宽下窄,俨然穿上铠甲的将士。 就在这样的环境里日出而作,繁衍生息。大伊里乡其实是个重点扶持的富裕乡。对口帮扶让他们过上了现代生活。在这红色的七月,需常怀感恩之心。大伊里乡瓜果青翠,花香四溢。([]
〖序〗去年元旦,我在零下45度的坝上草原,极度寒冷干燥的天气,还没回上海,我的手上就开始发湿疹。最初并不在意,却没想到,湿疹越发越多,最后竟伴随了我一年,并发展到全身性皮肤过敏。每次似乎过敏稍好一点,一旦出去旅行或出差,便又再次复发。而去年是我特别忙碌的一年,出差频繁,旅行也很频繁。湿疹却因反复发作,久治不愈,已成顽疾,让我去年整整一年,痒并快乐着。今年元旦,从柬埔寨回来后,十个手指头再次长满密密麻麻的湿疹,让我痛下决心,暂时不出去玩了,哪儿也不去了,就在上海呆着,修身养性。 修身养性,说起来容易做起来难。尤其是身处户外圈,身边的朋友都是不安分的旅行狂热者,春节开始,朋友圈里便陆续晒各类旅行照,接着是各类旅行计划。我又心痒了。 “当【旅行】被按下暂停键,还好有照片可以感怀与想念。只是为何,两个月前的柬埔寨之行,已如两年般久远?”当我在微信上敲出这段文字时,只觉内心悲凉。 人生有当下,还有远方。旅行,早已成为我的信念,是照进琐碎生活的一丝光亮。每隔一段时间,放下工作,放下压力,放下朝九晚五,去遥远的地方放逐一下,再回来时,便已是神清气爽,连平凡生活也换成了美好模样,不觉房价很高,客户很烦,压力很大。 但现在,我必须得做出妥协,与我的身体。 “你一定是以前户外水线走得太多,湿气过重”,“户外睡帐篷时,即使有防潮垫,湿气依然很重”。。。身边朋友帮我找着各种看似合理的解释。但不管原因为何,现在我要做的是暂停旅行,暂停行走。 人生都有阶段性的,不是吗?也许这是我的身体在向我发出的警告。我只是暂时停下来,休息一下而已。远方,永远在前方。我如此安慰自己。 当旅行暂停时,还好我有照片可以怀念,还有文字可以书写。 所以,现在,让我用文字来开始一段旅行吧。。。 D1(12-29) 上海浦东——柬埔寨暹粒暹粒,第一次看见“暹”这个字,我甚至不知该如何发音。问十个人,也许九个人不知“暹”字该如何读,而八个人不知“暹粒”又是何地?你不知暹粒,但你一定知道吴哥。如果你要去吴哥,那你一定得先飞暹粒,吴哥的门户。2012年元旦前夕,小美丽说,"我们去吴哥吧,元旦去吴哥,天气最凉爽。" 每年的11月至次年2月,是吴哥的旱季,也是最凉爽的季节,自然也是旅游旺季。3月开始气温上升,而5月-10月,便进入闷热潮湿的雨季,最高温度可达40多度。无奈时间太仓促,即使计划买大韩航空的机票从韩国绕过去,机票也很贵。那一年元旦,我们放弃了吴哥,我却开始对吴哥心心念念。2013年春秋开通了上海直飞暹粒的航线,我就盘算着,一定要去吴哥。待过了吴哥漫长的雨季,我依旧把去吴哥的时间定在了元旦。还在浦东机场候机,心里已是春暖花开。和蟋蟀头自拍一张,分享到微信朋友圈:“又一次出发,到温暖的地方过新年去!”Tips:办理去柬埔寨的证非常方便,在网上申请电子证,25美元/人,3个工作日即可收到证的PDF电子版本,打印出来,贴在护照上即可。申请电子证网址:https//evisa.mfaic.gov.kh/Default.aspx 直飞的好处便是,4个多小时后,我们已抵达柬埔寨国际机场。柬埔寨的海关人员会索要小费,已是公开秘密。”把1美元准备好,夹在护照里“,很多人的攻略会如是告诉你。但我不准备给他们小费。我们都有合法的入境证,凭什么还要给海关人员小费?排队等候入关。我前面一正在办理入关手续的中国男人,忽然转过身对他的同伴喊道:“他们要我交10元钱,你们有吗?””你就和他说no money!“未等他的同伴给他钱,我的话已喊出了口。那海关人员向我看了看,又低下了头。我想了想,为避免他可能的刁难,我干脆换了个通道排队。轮到我时,我递上护照。海关员接过护照,眼睛也没抬,只喃喃地用中文说了句:"10元人民币。”“NO,” 这次,我的回答更简单。他啥也没说,只低着头把我的护照翻来覆去看。你就慢慢看吧,反正我不会给你钱的。我心里暗暗想着。磨蹭许久后,他叫我把右手放到一个指纹记录仪上,停留许久,再换左手,又停留许久。“NO~~NO” 他嘴里一边咕哝着,一边继续磨蹭着。我安静地等在柜台前,我就不信,不给他小费,他就不让我通行?最后,他终于在我护照上盖好章,把护照递还给我。我心里偷笑,接过护照,赶紧离开。下一个是蟋蟀头了,海关人员也对他说了同样的话,“10元人民币,” 他也用“NO”直接回绝了海关人员。我估计这位海关人员心里已是极度不爽,失去耐心,只让蟋蟀头放了一只手记录指纹,就让他通过了。据说,柬埔寨海关人员的索贿都是中国人培养出来的。如果真是如此,那就让我们每个中国人从NO开始,断绝掉他们这种劣根性。 走出机场时,旅馆派来接我们的车夫已拿着写有我名字的纸牌候在外面。住三晚以上,旅馆便提供免费的接机服务。我们将在暹粒住七晚,便理所当然享受了旅馆的这项免费服务。车夫叫Bunny,我们在暹粒相处了整整六天,我却是在最后一天才知他的名字。当时,Bunny对我们来说,只是一个临时来接机的车夫而已,我们并没想到在暹粒的六天,都将与他在一起,甚至还去了他家里。坐上他的TUTU车时,“take photo?” Bunny问我。他这么喜欢拍照吗?我一边觉得奇怪,一边把镜头对准他。“No,我是问是否需要我帮你俩拍张照?” Bunny摇着手,知道我误解了他的意思。真逗,这漆黑的夜里,帮我俩拍照?但我还是把相机递给他,于是,借着路灯的余光,有了我俩这张初来乍到的照片。 预订的旅馆Avie Moriya Villa(阿维莫莉亚别墅),还真是一幢两层楼的别墅,只有几个房间。老板是个意大利人,据说很nice很幽默。房价不贵,住7晚仅226美元,相当于人民币1377元。出发前一个月我才订房,可能正值旅游旺季的缘故,很多酒店房间都早已预订一空,包括朋友推荐的Motherhome Inn。找到Avie Moriya Villa属巧合,位置好,离老市场近,而且它的网上评分还很高。只是,不到200元一晚的房间,多少让我有点担心。这种担心,直到热情的服务生把我们领进房间,才终于解除。房间虽简单,却很干净,而且还有免费的wifi。蟋蟀头说肚子饿了,要外出觅食。于是,行李放下,我们便再次出门,坐上Bunny的tutu车,让他送我们去酒吧街。当然,Bunny并非免费送我们,他要求收费2美元。在柬埔寨,主要使用的货币是美元,从购物到吃饭的所有消费。而当地货币瑞尔Riel,一般只用来找零。美元与瑞尔有个固定汇率0.1USD=400Riel,通常只有用到1美元以下时,瑞尔才派上用场 。既然一切都用美元支付,所以,柬浦寨的消费并不便宜。2美元,差不多13元人民币,上海出租车的起步价,可以坐3公里。而我们坐Bunny的tutu车,仅几分钟而已,便已到了酒吧街。如此一来,是不是比上海都贵?但当时我没有2美元的零钱,掏出一张100美元,Bunny说,明天付吧。明天,已和他约好,下午送我们去买吴哥的门票。他就不怕我们明天爽约,不坐他的tutu车?我心里暗想。但可能正因为他这种相信,我们也都很诚信。信任与否,从来都是相互的。 酒吧街并非如想像中那般人头攒动、人声鼎沸,毕竟已是午夜时分,喝了酒的人,也大多回房休息了。但五彩的霓虹,震耳的音乐,还是和之前寂静的夜色形成鲜明的反差。“要不要去喝一杯?” 蟋蟀头问我。“不要。”我知道他故意这样问,他其实从来不爱喝酒。我们是来找吃的。但这些光鲜亮丽的酒吧,提供的除了酒水还是酒水。 酒吧街并不长,50米左右,穿行而过后,灯光便黯淡下来,稀稀拉拉摆着一些路边摊。从旅馆出来时,已向服务生打听过,夜里是否安全?即使得到服务生肯定的答复,蟋蟀头仍然一百个不放心,即使要吃路边摊,也一定要找个灯光明亮点的地方。我们还真找到一处明亮的角落。小食摊的玻璃橱窗上竟写着四个斗大的中文:牛肉河粉。“finish,finish!”橱窗后的一个男人对我说道。我站在小食摊前,探头往里张望着,可能看得太过专心,竟对他说的“finish” 充耳不闻。和蟋蟀头商量下,我便对老板说道,“要两份牛肉河粉。”“finish !” 老板大声地再次重申。哦,原来已经卖完,结束营业了。但之前我居然把“finish”听成“fish”,以为他在向我推销鱼了!真是三滴汗啊。 他家已结束营业,但紧挨着他家的另一个食摊,小妹仍在忙碌中。依然点了两份炒河粉,蟋蟀头的牛肉河粉和我的蔬菜河粉。每份2美元。在东南亚旅行的好处便是,与国内的食物差异不大,不会让人在饮食上感觉难以适应。用筷子吃河粉的时候,有点时光错乱的感觉。我们真的已经在柬埔寨呢? 见我在拍照,一老外突然跳过来,张大手臂,做个怪脸,挡在我镜头前面。然后,我俩都哈哈大笑。嗯,我想,我们的确已在柬埔寨了。饭后去逛了小食摊旁边的超市,这里日用品一应俱全,成了我俩后来屡次光顾的地方。除了很多商品是made in China,几个中文字也是赫然醒目。 准备返回旅馆时,近凌晨2点,街头依然许多夜不归宿的游客。他们,是这个城市GDP的来源,也使这个城市无论白天还是黑夜,都充满生机。更漆黑的角落,一排排tutu车沿街摆开。比游客还多的tutu车,生意看来并不好做。如此竞争激烈,所以我们只用了一美元,便坐tutu车返回了旅馆。 D2(12-30)巴肯山日落吴哥窟的门票分为三种:一日票$20,三日票$40,七日票$60。下午17点钟买票后便可马上进去,免费获得一个傍晚,去巴肯山或者吴哥看日落。所以,这一天,我们除了下午430出发去买吴哥门票,然后去巴肯山看日落外,并没有特别安排。于是,便安安心心地睡到自然醒。一觉醒来时,已是中午。从二楼的阳台上往外望去,除了电线太过扎眼外,街上空无一人,安静得有点过分。但这就是暹粒,白天游客们都散落到吴哥的丛林中,只有傍晚以后才陆续归城。所以,白天的暹粒永远都是寂寞的。 昨晚抵达时,夜色漆黑,完全不知我们住的这幢楼啥模样。现在下楼后,才算把这幢Avie Moriya Villa(阿维莫莉亚别墅)看清楚。外墙涂成淡黄色的小楼,看上去倒是分为雅致。二楼阳台上挂着柬埔寨国旗和红白绿的意大利国旗,看来老板的确是个意大利人。只是,旅馆里依然不见他的踪影。我对他有点好奇,为何要到这里来开一家廉价旅馆?这点房费,怎么算起来都不算什么高收入。蟋蟀头说,你以为老外都很有钱吗?说不定他在意大利也就一穷人。 出门时,已是下午两点半,准备走路去老市场吃午饭。看了酒店名片后面的地图,老市场与酒吧街相距很近。蟋蟀头说,你跟我走就行。“你确信你可以找到?”我有点怀疑。虽然昨晚坐tutu车去酒吧街吃过饭,但我依然毫无方向感。“我确信。”蟋蟀头的语气里,倒全是自信。于是,我俩就这样出门溜达了。 “我们现在走的路,比昨晚绕了一下。我只是想看看,这边又是什么样?”蟋蟀头说道,就好像他曾经来过似的。我依旧半信半疑,甚至中途还去问了两个路人,但证明我俩的确一直走在正确的方向。“你知道这是哪吗?”将近20分钟后,蟋蟀头指着一条街的入口。“不知道。”我摇了摇头。“这就是酒吧街啊!”“酒吧街?但为什么和昨晚的酒吧街没有一点相似之处呢?”我不相信。但很快,我发现路牌上写着Pub street。“因为这是酒吧街的另一头。”蟋蟀头非常淡定地说道。现在,我对他的方向感,佩服得五体投地。只是,酒吧街的白天与黑夜,反差实在很大。但为何街头有这么多警察呢?有什么事情发生吗?和警察叔叔确认了下,与酒吧街平行的另一条街道便是老市场。攻略说,老市场集中了很多餐厅。但当我站在这里时,眼前所见与想像中完全不一样。左边一排简陋的小吃摊,散发出来的浓烈腥味,让我只想赶快逃离。后来去这后面逛了一下,原来小吃摊的后面是个菜市场,难怪气味难闻。路右边的餐厅,看上去就精致许多。我很少按别人的推荐去寻找美食,因为在吃这件事上,我从来认为是仁者见仁,智者见智。毕竟每个人的口味不一样,要求也不一样。美食,凭自己的感觉去寻觅就好。就比如这家放满绿植的餐厅,蓝色的桌椅、异域风情的桌布,明亮绮丽的颜色搭配,一入眼,我就挪不动脚了。 餐厅不仅装修考究,连服务员也很漂亮。点餐后,等候上菜时,蟋蟀头让小姑娘坐在桌子一边,给她拍照。我俩是餐厅唯一的客人,所以小姑娘很大方地应允了。她的眼睛大大的,笑的时候特别美。 饭前饮料,一定是每人一个新鲜椰汁。在泰国时,我们是如此习惯;到了柬埔寨,依然如此。同是椰汁,但柬埔寨和泰国的又有所不同。柬埔寨的椰子虽块头大,但椰汁却不如泰国的甘甜,味道偏淡。而且柬埔寨的椰汁比泰国的贵许多,柬埔寨一般$2(相当于人民币12元),而泰国仅10泰铢(相当于人民币2元)。如此一比较,感觉柬埔寨的消费比泰国贵了许多。 我们这顿饭是传统的柬埔寨美食。我的Amok fish 和蟋蟀头的Beef Lok Lak。Amok是当地的一种植物,用它的叶子裹着鱼肉或鸡肉或牛肉,再加上椰奶、咖喱粉、姜黄粉、柠檬香草等调料,在火上蒸熟。选择不同的主食料,便是不同的Amok,所以有了Amok fish、Amok beef、Amok chicken。也许暹粒边上就是洞里萨湖的缘故,所以鱼肉的Amok最为有名。而Beef Lok Lak则是用炒好的牛肉配上柬埔寨特有的烤肉酱。点餐时,我对蟋蟀头说,“我想吃鱼,可是。。。”我喜欢吃鱼,可是因为湿疹的缘故,已经戒鱼很久了。“那就点吧。吃了再说。”蟋蟀头二话不说,帮我做了决定。他就是这样,永远知道我在想什么,不管我是话只说了一半,还是什么也没说。他只是看情况,帮我把想说的话说出来而已。 我对这家餐厅的桌布和桌巾一见倾心,这就是传说中的纱笼布吗?我立即把它列入我的购物清单,只是,直到离开柬埔寨,也再没看见这么漂亮的桌布。 吃完饭,已近下午4点,得赶紧往回走了,因为和Bunny有约,1630来旅馆接我俩。回去时,蟋蟀头说带我走近路,即昨晚我们坐tutu车的路线,居然只用了十分钟左右,我们便走回了旅馆。一路上,见到许多候客的tutu车停靠在路边,也有许多tutu车司机主动过来招呼我们。尽管是旅游旺季,似乎tutu车的生意也难做啊。所以,当我们回到旅馆,看见Bunny已笑脸盈盈地等候在大门口时,便一点也不奇怪了。后来要离开暹粒时,我问蟋蟀头,为何我们从来没向其他tutu车司机打听过价格呢?不货比三家,就选择了Bunny,这似乎没有道理。“这要问你自己了。”蟋蟀头回答我。 1630,准时出发。当时 ,只与Bunny谈好这个傍晚的车费$5:送我们去买门票,然后送我们去巴肯山看日落,最后把我们送回旅馆。 旅馆到售票处并不远,tutu车过去十多分钟就到了。实际上,暹粒本就是个小城,城区到呈哥窟十多分钟,到机场也是十多分钟而已。幅员广阔的是茫茫丛林,以及丛林中的寺庙。吴哥的门票很有纪念意义,因为会现场为每个人拍一张照片印在门票上,于是,每张门票都成了个人专属。最值得一提的是,在通货膨胀的今天,吴哥的门票这十年来都没有任何变化。十年前的三天票是$40,现在依然是同样价格。 买完门票后,我们便直奔巴肯山。中途路过吴哥寺,远远地便能看见人山人海。我倒吸一口气,这么多人,我们如何拍摄日落?对巴肯山的日落,我似乎有了不好的预感。Bunny把车停在巴肯山下,指着不远处的一条山路说道,“你们就从那儿上山吧,我在山下等你们。”放眼看去,上巴肯山的游客也不少。我有点担心,山下这么多人,我们能在人群中找到Bunny吗?或者说,Bunny会找到我们吗?但实际上,我的担心有点多余,Bunny从来没有错过我们,他总是在我们从寺庙出来的第一时间向我们挥手。 在上山的入口处,有个伤残人士组成的民乐团在演奏,我大概看了下介绍,他们自称是地雷的受害者,请求募捐。后来我们在吴哥的每个遗迹入口处,都有看到这样的乐团。柬埔寨曾有举世闻名的吴哥文明,但也曾遭遇几十年的战乱。从1945的抗法战争到后来的内战,几十年的战争让柬埔寨变得满目疮痍。战争中埋下的1000多万颗地雷,比其人口还多,约占全球地雷总数的十分之一。因地雷遍布太广,数量太多,已成为延续至今最大的威胁,给柬埔寨人民带来巨大灾难,被地雷炸伤的人数远大于被炸死的人数。从1991年10月23日“巴黎和平协议”订后,联合国开始往柬埔寨派驻扫雷部队,但据说,要清除柬埔寨所有的地雷,需上百年甚至更长的时间。坏消息是,柬埔寨每天依然有平民被地雷所伤;但好消息是,我们游客去的地方,地雷都已清理干净。只要你走在有路的地方,就不用担心地雷。我放了钱在他们的募捐盒里。后来,每看到这样的乐团,我俩都会捐钱。有人说,有些乐团是假装成地雷受害者,只为骗取钱财。但不管怎样,我相信他们是真的。在神的领地,你敢说谎吗?为了赶上落日,我俩快步向山上走去。巴肯山虽为山,但并不高,高度仅65米,与吴哥窟的高度相近。尽管如此,它也是吴哥区域的制高点之一,所以,它总是被人们列为看日出或日落的地方。爬上山,我俩仅用了十分钟。但一上山,我傻眼了,举目望去,除了人还是人。随着人流往前走,有工作人员在维持秩序,要求大家排成一列,排队上山。抬头,仰望,矗立在山顶的巴肯寺,高高在上。虽然神庙底部大多坍塌,但屹立在山顶的它,依然气势不减。高棉人崇拜山,山与山神,是他们的原始信仰。真腊王朝的国王耶输跋摩一世登基后,把都城从洞里萨湖边的罗洛士迁至吴哥所在的一片平原,并在巴肯山上建立了第一座国庙。巴肯在当时不仅是王朝的中心,也成为婆罗门世界的宇宙中心——须弥山。([]
野 山 清 凉 2009年 6月26日至6月28日,我们一行六人在向导蔡胜民的协作下,完成大别山霍山龙井河1号线局部、广家河2号线全程和狼牙谷3号线大半程的徒步穿越,观瀑嬉水。 喜欢行走,是因为心向林泉。如果你的骨子里刻满了随性与浪漫,那这个世界就无所谓城市与荒原。 2009.6.26,凌晨四点,我们一行六人驱车来到大别山堆谷山村。小憩两个小时,醒来就开始摘向导老蔡家的桃子充饥。 我和老蔡商量了一下行程,酷暑难耐,此行主要去水区。略去1号线无瀑布的地区,必要走完2号线,也就是强度难度最大的广家河瀑布区,3号线主要安排腐败项目。上图红线部分就是广家河线,线路内有11道瀑布,依次为玲珑瀑、贴心瀑、老虎夹瀑、珍珠瀑、万字瀑、彩虹瀑、三道崖瀑、黄崖瀑、飞天瀑、美女献秘瀑和老牛撒尿瀑。返程途经神龙首瀑和龙王樽瀑,再插入1号线看鲤鱼跳龙门瀑,经24道弯回堆谷山村。蓝线是3号线,狼牙谷线,相对强度较低,适宜嬉水。([]

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 location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30), 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evaluate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for? The pregnant female chirus in migration, probably heading to Heishi Beihu to give birth([]
一个人的旅行,自拍就变成了技术活。想一个人自由的旅行,想去哪去哪,但是又怕没人拍照?那就继续关注吧,末尾我会告诉大家我是怎样自拍的~【768楼已更新自拍心得】第一次正式发帖写游记,先自我介绍一下,我20岁,大二,工程系女...15岁以后一直在美国上学,家在北京,祖籍湖南人。我是一个爱旅行,爱摄影,爱户外,爱大自然的姑娘~ 苏格兰的小镇风光比大城市的景点对我要更有吸引力。如果想抢先行看到我旅行的图片,可以上instagram找jackieechen )这次旅行分两部分。第一部分是5.20-6.4游学(边旅游边上课),第二部分就是课程结束6.4-6.15以后我一个人的穷游。我会主要分享一个人的旅行部分,末尾会分享游学时的自拍,和自拍教程~自己十天,吃住行花费400英镑左右。住 主要是青旅平均一天20磅,十天200磅。行 主要是火车,大概200磅不到。吃 全是水果和饼干花生酱。我不是很在乎美食。属于eat to live(为了活着而吃)的人。对于有些live to eat(为了美食而活着)的人就会很难在吃上面省钱了。 【照相设备】照相设备:佳能60D, 头18-135mm,三脚架,快门遥控,iphone(很多都是手机拍的), GoPro我爱好摄影,所以设备比较全,但是我觉得技术比设备重要所以一直没有换全副或者上红圈头。免得大家问一个人旅游怎么拍的这些照片,我都是用三脚架支着自己拍的。苦逼哄哄啊 没有一个会拍照的男朋友。仔细看很多照片都可以看到快门遥控器 哈哈我和相机的自拍一张~行头齐全我们出发吧~我一直想在大学毕业前能够周游世界。学生时代有时间没金钱,步入社会有钱却没时间。这个世界这么大,不去多看看永远只是活在自己的世界里,以为这就是全部。我总想走得远一些,爬的高一些,看得多一些。在以后的某一天,回想起那年少轻狂的时光,花样年华,三月桃花,一个背包,浪迹天涯。老爸总是说我,女孩子乱跑什么,放假多看看书,给我搞上哥伦比亚再说!老爸保护欲很强,但是平常忙也没时间管我。我在身边就会管得严,不在身边就任由我自己。所以放假我不想回家,回了家老爸就不放人了,不在他身边的时候他就不管。爸妈一直很相信我,我这次一个人出去,他们都没有多说什么。反而路上遇到很多人提醒我,一个小姑娘要注意安全,还心疼我天天吃饼干什么的。平常在学校我打工做助教判作业,食堂兼职,一礼拜20小时,一年也有4000多美金收入。老爸每年给的零花钱也绝对有的省。出去前老爸还说打工的钱快没了就给你打点,但是我也没要。我不爱开口求人,钱多有多的花法,钱少也可以活的很潇洒。看,我这次出来,不算机票,吃住行才400多磅!哈哈哈我特自豪。吃饼干我也开心 【行程】集体游学5.20-5.23 Dublin,Ireland (3 nights)5.23-5.27 Londonderry, Northern Ireland (4 nights)5.27-6.5 Belfast, Northern Ireland (10 nights)独自旅行6.5 从Belfast做游轮去Cairnryan, Scotland 距离北爱尔兰最近的苏格兰的地方。然后做Bus去Glasgow随便逛逛然后做火车去Stirling(小镇,很有风情)一下午往返,然后最后一班车去Oban6.5-6 Oban (海岸小镇都别有风情 一定要去一个)6.7-8 爱丁堡 Edinburgh6.9 Inveness (尼斯湖所在)6.10 晚上回爱丁堡住一晚,第二天一早火车去York6.11 York 早上到晚上火车去Oxford6.11-12 Oxford(可以去Bicester North购物 嘿嘿 女生嘛 无论我多么爱大自然我还是一样爱逛商场,最后没去成,懒得了 哈哈)6.13-6.14 伦敦 唯一一个提前定了住宿的 因为怕旅游高峰找不到地方住几张预告片。明天开始正按时间顺序~ 【第一天】6.5一大早从Belfast做7点多做最早的游轮到达苏格兰最近的地方Cairnryan,一个小港口。22.5英镑,2个多小时达到。我打车去的港口,花费大概10英镑。提前半小时去就好。像飞机一样会托运大行李checkin之类的。不过很快。游轮在direct ferries(订票链接 3w.directferries.co.uk)游轮环境很好,里面有餐馆,购物,免费电影院。里面很大很多层,可能是因为我买的很早的游轮,人也很少。大家都找个舒服的地方躺着睡会养精神。我最喜欢跑到最上面的甲板上吹海风。一个人感觉特别自由。终于一个人出来旅行了 我是个很随性的人。但是在生活中能有多少能随着自己感觉走呢。这次我什么计划也没有定,没有提前定火车票,没有提前订住宿,就连要去的地方也是跟着当地人口中的美地而随时变化着。(在这里说一下,如果想要在上一层次的省钱,并且知道自己要去的地方,可以提前上网订火车票或者巴士,哪怕提前一两天都会便宜一些。) 简单说一下衣食住行【行】出行真的好多方法。飞机,火车,游轮,大巴。1.飞机提前买也很便宜,但是看不到沿途的风景。尤其是苏格兰,沿路实在是太美了。苏格兰给我的感觉就是一个字,绿。哪儿哪儿都是绿油油的。沿途还有紫色的花,听当地人说貌似是野花。这么美的野花,给一路上的绿加了点彩。2. 火车我这一路的首选。在欧洲,我觉得首选还是火车,方便快捷。**火车通票。可以选择买BritRail Pass,但是必须要在国外买好。我本来要买的,但是到了才发现,只能国外买,英国本地不卖。一张通票,随时,随地hop on hop off。想去哪去哪,免去了排队的麻烦。 **省钱法。但是一定要有确定的行程。可以去3w.thetrainline.com 提前订票。避免高峰期(大约早上10点前)就和飞机票一样,价钱一直在变,要提前订。选合适的时间。这种票只能上你买的特定的那个时间的那一班火车,通票和临时买的就可以任何时间的任何一班车。**临时买。到了火车站临时买也可以,会稍微贵一些。近的地方我都选择的临时买,因为我没有确定行程。一天当中随时想哪一趟火车就上哪一趟。起晚了也没事。往返票很划算,一般往返票和单程相差价格不到一英镑。临时买的往返票,当天任何一班车走,返回的票一月内有效,任何一班车回。唯一一个远途的从爱丁堡到伦敦,临时买的话要150+英镑,有朋友飞机才50磅。所以这一段我采用的提前定。提前订分了两部分,从爱丁堡到York(37磅),York到London(20磅)。York再去伦敦的路上,不防去玩一趟,不大的小镇一日游可以。提前订省了100磅。Glasgow火车站~3.游轮去英国周边的小岛玩啊什么的。这次有点遗憾没有去一个岛玩玩。Oban是个港口小镇,非常方便的。英格兰玩到后面去Oxford时候都懒得拍照片了,都差不多,可能只是对我,大自然风光更吸引我。我宁愿后面不去Oxford省下那一天在苏格兰边上的小岛玩玩。4.大巴大巴很便宜,但是耗时间。在Inverness的时候碰到一个澳大利亚背包客,提前两天买的大巴去伦敦,才20多磅。但是要12小时从Inverness到伦敦。有时间的话,大巴还是很不错的。这张图是到了Cairnryan后一出来就有citylink到Glasgow的大巴。17.5磅,2个多小时到。大巴站离Glasgow Queen Street火车站很近。一路上风景绿油油的。感觉特别惬意。我是一般一上车就睡,但是尽管那天早上5点多就起床,我也不愿合一下眼。苏格兰第一印象,绿油油的。 【住】住的都是青旅。平均20一天,伦敦会贵一些最好提前订。我一般定离火车站近的地方。除了伦敦,我感觉英国各个城市都和小镇一样,很小,走就能到各个地方。一个女孩子拎着行李还是火车站近的地方比较方便,而且一般都在是downtown市中心。爱丁堡一下火车站就是最繁华的王子街,全部是购物。 伦敦很大,不过地铁很方便。我觉得住paddington附近不错,回去的时候可以直接搭去Heathrow机场的快轨 15分钟到机场,很方便。而且离Hyde Park海德公园,Oxford Stree牛津街(购物血拼的地方)也很近。走路10多分钟。这是在Oban的Backpackers Plus,很干净。这是Belfast的青旅里面的样子。看到下面的小铁笼子了吗,可以自己上锁的。有些青旅会有自己的小柜子或者小笼子。有些被单也需要自己铺一下。我在Oban的时候,10点多才到,临时找的地方,最后一张床...不然我就要露宿街头了。 所以后面我学乖了,前一天或者当天早上找好里火车站近的青旅。补充一下【住】如果经济富裕,可以考虑住民宿或者B&B。环境好住在当地人家。这是几个出游很方便的app第一排1,2是查火车时刻的the train line和National Rial; 3是citymapper在伦敦的时候看路,差地铁线路。第二排都是住宿。hostel world查青旅;2是airbnb可以查当地民宿,很想住但是还是节约钱买漂亮衣服吧;3是coach surfing没有用但是推荐下,可以免费驻当地人家,可能是一个沙发,或是客房。但是我没有时间建个人主页了所以没有用。最后一个tube map是查伦敦的地铁线路【食】我主要就是吃饼干蘸着花生酱。其实我一点也不介意,我觉得很好吃 哈哈。除了这些我就买水果吃。懒人嘛水果洗洗就好了。饼干1英镑一大包,花生酱4磅。10天后,两包都没有吃完。去了几次超市卖水果,一次10磅左右。大概吃就花了40磅不到。10天… 不雅的说,我感觉吃了就拉了,没啥用,就满足那一下。我不如省下那钱买几条漂亮裙子,可以穿好多年呢。哈哈这是我十天的伙食。中间有买过酸奶,鸡蛋什么的补充一下。但是我对吃的要求真不高。在爱丁堡的时候遇到一个马来一个泰国的男生,听说我吃饼干可怜兮兮的还请我吃好吃的,好感动。还是好人多。【衣】我带的衣服不多,很多青旅可以洗衣服的,这一个多月我总共洗了2次。只带了4件T恤,但是我带了15条内裤…哈哈女孩子的话衣服什么的尽量少带,因为到这里肯定会买哈哈。留着地方。带衣服尽量可以多穿几层的。因为天气变化很快。我带了这些:4件T恤 (黑白灰,一件彩)2条裤子(穿一条,一共3)一堆堆内裤3件格子衫一样的随便可以在t恤外面一套的1黑色长袖1薄针织衫1睡裤(legging)1裙子牛仔马甲真的装起来很少~ 来了以后买了些衣服什么的。最重要的是件军绿外衣,不然我冷死了- -出行要带的少又要在照片里多变,就要多带基本的黑白灰内搭。上面一个T下面可以短裤可以长裤,可以半身裙,冷的话外面穿上针织衫,大衣什么的。这边5月底大概10多度。但是太阳出来会很暖。所以尽量多穿几层,热了脱,冷了套外衣。现在终于理解以前看的街拍为什么穿着t恤戴围巾,穿着裙子穿大衣了哈哈。【其他】雨伞/雨衣,感冒药(这边冷,天气多变,备着吧)学生证(有些门票会便宜~)锁(我忘带了,囧)在青旅多人间床铺下会有一个小铁笼放东西,可以锁起来安全。 【通讯/wifi】我住的各个地方都有免费wifi。因为离开Belfast以后就是独自旅行了了,所以买了张sim卡。主要是要用google map免得丢了。有网还是很方便的找吃的啊,地图啊,传照片啥的。各种便利店都可以买到,跟他们说需要simcard就好。很多选择,其实都可以,反正就用这么半个月吧。我买的3公司的卡,信号不错,火车上大多都有3G。1英镑Sim卡,最低充值10英镑。是按流量收钱,不过很便宜,我狂用也都够用。 【第一天】6.5继续坐游轮到达Cairnryan大概9点多,外面立马有citylink的大巴到Glasgow。临时上车买的票。大概中午12点左右到达Glasgow.初定计划是去Oban住一晚,Stirling住一晚,但是错过了中午去Oban的火车下一班要4点多。买好了票要等三个多小时。走不住的我不到一小时就坐不住了,发现去Stirling的车很频繁,火车站还有寄存行李的地方,问了问当地人说Stirling三小时玩+往返足够。留意了下最晚一班今天去Oban的是6点半左右,我有4个多小时呢。于是我就突发奇想的跑去了Stirling。在Stirling火车站。很小清新的火车站。在小镜子前自拍了一张哈哈。最前面发的站在火车站边上没有行李的那张就是Sitrling火车站。在晚上去Oban的路上,更是一路看到很多小清新车站,爱得不得了,但是停车时间超级短,无奈没有拍照啊啊啊。如果有喜欢小清新,森女文艺范的摄影爱好者可以去啊。从Glasgow到Oban的火车途中经过很多qq的车站,记忆很深刻的是Lock Awe的车站。很窄的火车道但是旁边有探出头的紫色野花,边上绿油油,不大但是精致。这两张是在城堡外面的城墙那里拍的。苏格兰这边很多小镇都有一个小山头可以俯瞰整个小镇,Stirling城堡和爱丁堡都是在山上,可以看全景。在城墙外Stirling往返Glasgow的票才7.8磅临时买的。单程票7磅。大概40分钟左右到。Stirling是个很Q的小镇,有Stirling Castle。拿着三脚架走走停停的拍照,最后只剩一个多小时,没有进去城堡,反正我是打算去保存最完好,最大的爱丁堡城堡,所以就没有多花那十几磅看这个了。感觉都差不多。 【第二天】6.6 Oban前一天晚上搭着最后一班6点半的火车到达Oban。全程3个多小时大概十点到。很幸运,火车上有个Oban当地的男生,他在英格兰读研究生,跟他聊了一路,告诉我Oban去哪里玩,可以住在哪个青旅,一路上还给我指出经过的湖还有遗弃的城堡。聊了聊美国英语和英国英语一些好玩的用词区别。比如美国的裤子叫Pants但是在英国指的就是Underwear内裤。当地人叫湖泊loch而不是lake。等等。俩家Oban小哥给推荐的青旅只剩一张床位,正好留给了我这个空降人员。哈哈。很幸运第二天是个大晴天~~这次旅行最喜爱的两地方一个是Oban一个是Londonderry。Oban属于苏格兰高地,附近有很好的登山地方。火车上的Oban小哥告诉我可以去BeninLora Hill。他就要去那爬山,要是我多呆一天就可以搭个顺风车和他一起,可是我时间不充裕。Oban很小,整个小镇就一条主路,又临着水,还有林荫小路。爱得不得了。两个景点,Dunollie Castle 和McCaigs Tower。出发~见镜子必自拍 哈哈沿着岸边的路走走停停拍照片,坐在海边吃面包片(peanutbutter sandwich花生酱+面包片 哈哈)沿岸风景。哈哈拍了几张游客照~到了三点多实在是热,而且相机快没电了,我就跑回青旅换了条裙子穿。带来了这么久终于暖和到能穿上裙子了。现在出发去小城堡~ 一路上全是绿油油,特别适合拍小清新,森女范儿 哈哈路上看见作画的老爷爷,他自己也融入了画里~我想说,没有时间观念的我,一路拍拍停停,到了的时候都5点多了,正在拍这张照片的时候来个人看我自拍呢跟我说话,我就问他城堡往哪走,他说已经关了,10am-4pm。我问在哪我去门口看看,因为我明早8点就走了,他一听让我沿着路往前走他去屋里拿钥匙给我开铁门去了…真是好人多啊好人多。好人一生平安~当当当~小城堡Dunollie Castle~ 好Q啊哈哈,里面在修建不让进。背面的树藤,古老的感觉。小城堡边上奇形怪状的树 哈哈从城堡回来,慢慢开始冷了,回去加了件衣服,大概8点多去找McCaigsTower. 不是很远,在小山坡上,在上面可以看全景~ 今天天气特别好,因为白天慢悠悠的拍照片,我也是无意的选了这时候来,正好赶上了落日!超级美!真恨当时没有拍延时拍摄做视频… 苏格兰这边晚上10点才落日,11点才黑天。早上3,4点就开始天亮,一天很长。慢慢天黑的Oban今天多写点,明天要去跳伞...不知道还能不能活着回来【6.7】Edinburgh 爱丁堡早上搭着最早8点多的车回到Glasgow转车去Edinburgh。一出火车站就爱上了这里。古老的城市,不一样的气息。【6.7】Edinburgh 爱丁堡继续爱丁堡街头,拿着地图找Castel进城堡很幸运又是一个大晴天,在城堡上可以看到爱丁堡全景,还能看到远处的海岸。我会告诉你们我为了拍那几张照片爬到城墙上,被security保安警告好几次嘛。哈哈。在这种旅游人多的地方就是管得严,我在Londonderry的时候爬上爬下都没人管的。 晚上去Calton Hill上看日落。上面有几个纪念碑。爱丁堡慢慢天黑漏了一张Stirling城堡大门的照片。要睡啦,现在还在美国有时差。明天去跳伞,如果活着回来继续更新~~ 今天去跳伞~我活着回来啦!谢谢支持,不好意思没有时间一一回复大家,只有快快更新给大家饱眼福啦~插播几张今天跳伞的照片~太爽了!在空中飘着,看着远方的地平线,感觉一切都在脚下,那么渺小,时间都静止了。下一步打算考个跳伞证,以后自己跳!!!PS 有朋友问这些是谁拍的。这几张跳伞的照片是跳伞的地方都会有的随行录像和照片。我本来特意买的gopro手腕带也不让带。。所以没办法自己拍自己录。心疼死了一百多美金...不过人生第一次,记录下来也值得的~ 不好意思啦大家,今天一天没更新。因为白天去跳伞什么的。回来整理了剩下的一些照片,先发上来给你们饱眼福,字之后再加把,现在美国这里已经凌晨了,困死了但是中国是白天,不想让你们等着,所以熬夜更新一下再睡觉~我乖吧~这是继续【爱丁堡】的几张这在爱丁堡城堡里面calton hill上面准备看日落【6.9】Inverness继续【6.9】 Inverness这个小镇也很小,很喜欢,就是沿着一条河River Ness好像是。因为附近有很有名的Loch Ness(尼斯湖)(好像是15分钟大巴,不记得了,因为我没去...我知道,跑那么远上去高地不去看尼斯湖不是白去了,不过这就是一个人旅行的自由所在。我后来觉得这个小镇很Q很美,想留在这边拍照,可能去尼斯湖时间就会很紧。 打听了一下,那边又是一个城堡,看过爱丁堡的了感觉都差不多。又不想仓促拍片,所以决定不去了)这个镇很绿很绿,让我想起Oban通往迷你小城堡的那条小路。绿油油的,像秘密花园一样。偶尔还有哪些紫色的花。被一片绿色环绕着,原本浮躁的心也沉淀了下来。决定多在这里享受一会悠闲的时刻,不去扎堆看尼斯湖了。沿着湖走,在河中央有小岛!小道上面超级绿超级大棵的树。就问路人Ness islands在哪就好。真的超级绿...适合拍摄小清新,森林系的片~(
尼泊尔的蝴蝶-2013尼泊尔风雪ABC徒步https//www.songtaste.com/song/363930/主曲:Resham firiri 如果你要问我为什么去尼泊尔,而且要徒步ABC,我真的不知道,你能告诉我为什么你喜欢开车,打牌,抽烟,喝酒,逛街吗?从山上回归尘世,整个人依然停留在尼泊尔节奏里,说话,做事总要慢一拍,时不时跟重庆人冒几句普通话或英文而浑然不觉。昏睡了一天一夜,虽然时差也不过2个多小时,感觉好像一辈子没睡过觉似的。爬山的8天每分每秒都是处于兴奋,疲惫,紧张中,睡觉是一种奢侈。常常半夜醒来,望着窗外满天繁星,或者满地白雪发呆,纠结要不要出去拍星轨。一大清早又被世界各地早起的驴友咚咚的脚步声吵醒,精神抖擞地开始新的一天。 相信到过尼泊尔或徒步走过ABC路线的驴友们,一定会听过这首resham firiri,尼泊尔最受欢迎的一首喜马拉雅民歌,讲的是木棉花开时,花飘落树枝和对恋人的爱慕之情。曲调以打击乐为主,反复重复四五次。整首歌我只听懂了三句不断重复的英文,sometimes TREKking, sometimes dancing, sometimes singing,那优美的旋律伴着尼泊尔传统手鼓,以及我们的背夫齐声合唱时熠熠发光的眼神,载歌载舞的身姿,非常非常的异域而性感。 回来后在网上搜到了这首歌的歌词如果我能飞 我愿飞越山谷乡村 只为了见到你 我向天鸣枪 不是猎杀美丽的麋鹿 而是让你知道我在何方啊 渴望能见到我那心爱的女子 微风中飘动的围巾 请美丽又善解人意的蝴蝶送到心爱的女子手上 木棉花开了, 你是何时开的花呢? 花落似白鸟飞下, 白色的鸟一直在飞。 你可能很累很累了,是否想停下来休息,还是你喜欢飞去,很远很远的地方 歌词的最后两句,非常的应景,爬山真的很累很累,尤其是雪地直线拔高。然而,没有那些突如其来的大雪,ABC仅仅就是N个黄果古道的延伸,我会在那儿插一面红旗,表明我的存在和征服。大雪给了我无数的第一次。虽然老驴春哥和丹丹姐很打击的说这个不叫爬雪山,而是爬的下过雪的山!然后给我展示他们征服雪山的照片, 受不了了,旅行就是不断发现新的烧钱的渠道,先是自驾,然后摄影,然后爬山,还有什么不烧钱的。 15天的旅程,100多公里的山路,从1000米徒步上升到3700米,这一路的汗水,雨水,雪水加泪水;笑声,歌声,欢呼声加呼噜声,如何能一一道来! 还是先从ABC说起吧。 对于一个海拔从70米到8000多米的国家-尼泊尔来说,它有着太多吸引世界各国游客的旅游资源,除了丰富的人文景观和众多的寺庙,其壮美的雪山、茂密的原始森林,和保护得极为完好的生态资源,也架构出了一个理想和近乎完美的徒步旅行圣地,其中最负盛名的便是环安娜普纳(Annapurna)地区线路及珠峰地区线路。 安娜普纳地区位于尼泊尔北部,喜马拉雅山中段,山脉高峰林立,海拔7000米以上的雪峰有7座。在它的西南边缘,在一座白雪皑皑的三角形山峰下,在一个倒映着雪山身影的宁静大湖旁,有个被称为东方小瑞士的博卡拉(Pohkara)。博卡拉是安娜普纳几条徒步线路的起点或终点。一年四季,游客不断。安娜普纳地区有四条徒步路线:安娜普纳环线(Annapurna circuit,简称大环线)、安娜普纳保护区线路(Annapurna Sanctuary或Annapurna Base Camp,简称ABC)、布恩山环线(PoonHILL,简称小环线),以及乔姆松线路(Jomsom,实际上是大环的一半,单程徒步,飞回或飞去)。 我们这次走的ABC加Poonhill小环线徒步,即图中蓝色的线路(B-3-2-A-B)。从Nayapul上,Nayapul下,整个登山8天时间。 To make a long story short,省略前面准备工作若干。来自全国各地的驴友们抱着相同的革命目,聚集在西安冰岩户外的大旗下,飞到了拉萨。DAY 1 -2 拉萨-拉孜-樟木 春节到拉萨机票真心便宜,一共600多,拉萨到樟木包车,途经扎什伦布寺,冬日的扎什伦布寺少了夏季熙熙攘攘的游人,有着别样的安静。 拉孜到樟木沿途,第一张集体2B照---那些年看出问没,女多男少!搞不懂! 背上背包证明我是驴行,不是自驾哦,可惜啊,我的大背包拿不出。一看就是新驴。好女不跟男斗,我跑!让我在雪地里撒撒野吧!南方的孩子没见过雪,各种奔跑,各种跳跃,各种扑倒。远处是著名的希夏巴瓦峰(最高峰8012米),看上去很近,很低,那是因为我们已经身处5000多米的高原。 亲爱的室友暖暖,准美女一枚;摄影师李哥,帅哥一枚 让我在雪地里撒撒野吧!南方的孩子没见过雪,各种奔跑,各种跳跃,各种扑倒。远处是著名的希夏巴瓦峰(最高峰8012米),看上去很近,很低,那是因为我们已经身处5000多米的高原。 这副画面谋杀了多少快门,领队,借你的衣服当人肉背景行不?画虎不成反类犬,本想学学人家的小鸟依人,怎么看来看去都像一个人贩子,孩子,乖,阿姨带你回家 樟木前几天下的暴雪樟木口岸换尼币确实便宜,114,后来在尼泊尔的money exchanger 一直看到都是112左右。近观尼泊尔民居樟木口岸出关后走一小段路就是尼泊尔海关了,类似于杂货店大小的海关就在街上一个很不起眼的地方。在尼泊尔海关填写入境申报单时,第一次在课堂之外有了职业荣誉感,筒子们,安静,老师讲课了,呵呵呵!我们的尼泊尔导游Susan,此刻隆重登场。像许多尼泊尔男人一样,地陪Susan有着一双深邃的眼睛,高挺的鼻梁,深深的瞳仁,笑起来很迷人。初见到他时,一直把他当成是司机的小弟,后来才知道 22岁的他居然在这个行当搞了7年。在尼泊尔,没有童工一词,7、8岁的孩子就在餐馆,旅游车当小弟,穷人的孩子早当家。尼泊尔的旅游大巴,行李全放车顶上,人超载也往车顶放,真想坐车顶兜兜风。 樟木到加德满都基本是下坡山路,沿途跟中国西部山区的景色相似,只是更穷,更脏,更乱。我的镜头始终追踪的是迎面而来的大篷车和这里的人民。 从樟木口岸开了大约6个多小时,一进入加德满都,两边的低矮密集建筑迎面扑来,每条胡同一样的马路都拥挤着矮小、破旧的车子,尘土飞扬,牛羊满街。城中村 城中随处可见的垃圾河蛛网密布的电线杆 在一个狭窄的街道堵车,遇到尼泊尔游行的车队,据Susan说这样的游行很多,大学生常常停课游行示威。没有红绿灯,人车争道尼泊尔街头最大的广告牌尽管这个城市给我们留下如此脏乱差的形象,我们却被这里的人所深深吸引。上天真的非常的公平,虽然尼泊尔人清贫,却给了他们美貌; 虽然这个国家动荡不安,却给了他们信仰。尼泊尔人也赠予我世上最珍贵的礼物———真情,信任和赞美。当我的相机对准他们,尤其是孩子的时候,他们没有丝毫的不悦和回避,只是,静静地看着我,眼神传递着或温柔或天真或多情或羞涩的表情,黑白分明的瞳仁有一种发自内心的安祥沉静,一眼看穿我的前世今生。 下面两组都是车上抓拍的街头人像,随随便便一个站姿,回眸都让人惊艳最爱的一组人像。看到这样的眼睛,你会深深的陷进去。尤其是那个穿校服的小女孩,我们去烧尸庙的途中遇到她,不知是在上学的路上还是逃学的路上,总之,看到我们,她就这样停下来,望着我们,直视镜头。顾不上调光圈,快门,我就这样一直拍下去,她就这样一直望着我,周围的队友争着跟她拍照,而我,真的不敢跟她合影。这个小男孩是在领队催我们快走时闯入我的镜头的,一直梦想拍这种眼神光,他就那么轻而易举地随随便便地抛过来,杀得我措手不及。第一次在网上发帖,游记6集早就写好了,QQ空间里有音乐和视频,很热闹。这里是新人,发不了音频和视频,安静得有点发慌。照片的整理和压缩太花时间,第一次对自己没了信心,有没有必要再传上来分享,还是留在记忆里呢 Day 3,加德满都一日游 猴庙-杜巴广场-烧尸庙-大佛塔 虽然尼泊尔号称众神的国度,但我们此行主要目的是登山,所以一日之间游览4个景点,典型的到此一游。以照相为主,几个景点介绍是回来补习功课才了解详细,当时Susan 只是零零星星的介绍了一部分。猴庙是第一个景点,有充分的时间照相。斯瓦扬布纳特寺(Swayambhunath)俗称猴庙。位于尼泊尔首都加德满都西郊2公里处的小山丘上。坐拥至高点,可以俯瞰整个加德满都城。传说这是喜马拉雅山脉地区最古老独特的寺庙,距今已有2500多年的历史,它不但融合了印度教和佛教,3000只被奉为神灵的猴子更是这里的小主人。从猴庙的正门需上行300级台阶才到达,或许为了省时间,或许照顾游人,我们的旅游车径直开到了山顶。很想说把我放下来吧,我要走上去,这长长的阶梯该有多少摄影素材。不过我们是个团队,少数服从多数,一个人旅游有一个人的自由,团队旅游必须有得有失,我珍惜得到的。流水的杰作。我怎么就没注意到呢,难道是这只调皮的猴子找到了同类,所以才会挤眉弄眼,一见如故?地摊上精美的装饰品或许因为直接上顶,没有见到多少猴子,反而拍了不少佛塔。对着这座塔前后左右,上上下下的照,总也照不全 Buddha's eye,是我的修行不够,佛不开眼?哦弥陀佛,我懂了,大慈大悲的佛给我的第一个教训,人不能太贪,两只眼足矣,为何你要四只眼?一直在想为什么下面的白塔要修这么高,正常人需距离20米以上才能照全佛像,是否意味佛只能远观,不能近玩呢美丽的女警察谢谢泡泡姐,李哥,刘哥,春哥给我照的美照,这就是集体游的好处,呵呵调皮的猴子,时而警惕地窥探;时而爬到肩上,头上抢夺糖果亲爱的队友们,注意形象! 第二站:杜巴广场(Durbar Square)意为皇宫广场,在加德满都河谷的三个古城:加德满都、帕坦和巴德岗中各有一个杜巴广场,是当年三个王国的王宫广场。尼泊尔王国的马拉王朝鼎盛时期,在文化、建筑、艺术上曾一度达到巅峰,马拉王朝第六代国王死后,其三个儿子各据一方,自立为王,为夺取西藏商路的控制权,相互征战,斥巨资修建王宫广场。它囊括了尼泊尔十六世纪至十九世纪间的纽瓦丽古典寺庙建筑和宫殿,现在都是辉煌的世界文化遗产。我们参观的帕坦皇宫位于帕坦市内皇家广场。 200多年前是帕坦国王的宫邸。三层高,呈回廓式,中间有一个大大的庭院。宫内的黛姑塔莱珠庙历史悠久,庙高32米,在三层阁楼基座上再建造了重檐的金顶寺庙。皇家广场周围寺庙林立,殿堂富丽,雕刻精美,堪称露天博物馆。这一站是最匆忙,也最赶时间的,susan 只给了我们一个小时的时间。回来才知道,还有那么多精美的雕像,千佛寺,活女神都没能一睹芳颜,也罢,遗憾是下次的动力。尼泊尔人的生活节奏很慢很慢,高大神庙台阶上赭红宫墙下,总是坐满闲散慵懒的人们。作为游客的我虽然行色匆匆,真想就这么席地而坐, 晒着阳光, 观蓝天流云, 看人来人往, 闻市井喧哗, 做一个与世无争的闲人。([]
