Tibet - Nepal - Mount Emei - the Three Gorges 47 days traveling alone travels of four
Stroll Lhasa
The next day I moved to Long Tha Kyaw Sa family hotel, because the original intention of the auspicious day stay hotels have been filled. On the road met a Tibetan, look at me like to travel, they take the initiative and lead the way to help me pack. I began to feel some hesitation, but still careful to keep the side. Later, only knew that he was talking to Tibetans in Qinghai, I immediately took out the Tar Monastery in Lhasa, Chong good photos. He saw the picture like a return to his hometown, incredibly happy, Wan Xie Xie 1000, and if I like to help in the help. He told me that opened a shop in Barkhor, I promised to empty definitely go and see.
Long Tha Kyaw Sa guesthouse is a typical Tibetan style buildings. Where Dolma treat people very well when the family own hard-working, diligent and competent. Outside the courtyard there are a variety of flowers, flowers in Tibet every household would prefer something Longda the rotation sense Sa family hotel on the stairs from the bottom filled with a lot of potted plant, is a person who wishes to live here every day, a Bar a good mood! On the ground floor there is a small garden, a table, several chairs to sofa, next to the shelves randomly placed in a number of magazines on Tibet. Very much like the sun rises, when the time every day to leave the hotel, where they sit for a while, and there are hotels Droma other people chat, listen to them talk about the story of Tibet. Room school of Tibetan-style furniture, painted crimson again painted red, green and gold and other tricks, very beautiful, ceiling and walls painted with Tibetan Buddhism, the eight auspicious symbols, curtain are invariably white and green colors of the grounding Buddhist symbol, the shape is a symbol of China Unicom vertical over. Want to come to this symbol is not patent, or China Unicom will have some small problems.
Room hung lanterns in Tibet, mostly Buddhist, and Buddhist symbols, and when I asked about the Droma Where to buy this kind of exquisite lanterns have the time, she said that was before, and now Bajiao Street already gone. How disappointing! I like some one You Niantou things. Later, I saw in Nepal have similar lanterns, but the workmanship and good design can not compete with here.
After everything settled down, and went to the famous Barkhor some wandering. Shuttle walk on busy streets, all sorts of people, have a variety of colors, a variety of expression. Vendors eager to look at you, with the most touching voice greeting you, "Look at the bead necklace, blue turquoise hand-Lian, red coral beads, Tibetan silver bracelet??" The other side there are voices, "Kham knives, hand-made?? "" Prayer wheel, buy a back go?? "" Thangka, come take a look, there are all kinds of instruments used?? "even for a little do not know Tibet travel with, in a few minutes will be able to know a lot of souvenirs.
I have just helped me find the Qinghai Tibetans, originally really wanted to buy in his shop where things, but really nothing special, they can only say sorry, and posed for pictures with him. Later, he suggested that I explore the Barkhor, I do not know what Old and shop, shop owner happened to see the neighborhood has a pretty cute little girl, they asked if they would be willing to let his daughter take me to go shopping, and then ensure that the She sent back. The owner saw me benign countenance, but also, and that the Tibetan people talk quite in cooked, it was readily agreed. Maybe I can divine, and the little girl a Tibetan wardrobe while playing with my sun glasses, side took me from east to west, from south to north stroll around in a circle, of course, follow the Tibetan pilgrims in a clockwise direction. All the travelers are coming face to me cast all sorts of eyes, strange, envy, and surprises, friendly?? My little girl said, "his sister want to buy a special Tibetan jewelry, you help me together to choose, with the look, okay? "This little girl really spiritual, saw a different one on the necklace: painted purple yak bones, dressed in fine red coral beads, pendant is 2 white yak bone beads, although most of the so-called Mao Niugu not true, but such a harmonious mix of colors that I have never seen elsewhere, the fact that no longer met after the identical thing. Then one asked two pick three counter-offer as they take on their own string necklace worn on the neck. The little girl asked me, do you still want to buy more, I said, "No, that's really something they like, as long as one is enough." Very grateful to the little girl who, but for her, and that they might not be able to face such love at first sight things, we can see she is a Buddha with the edge of my people.
Bid farewell to the busy Barkhor, I want to try the yak butter tea, so he casually asked a vendor at a stall to buy Tibetan clothes, he suggested that I go to a newly opened restaurant - new full vegetarian (originally called a full vegetarian restaurant) , in the famous coffee shop opposite the eight profiles, that they all go tasted very authentic. The vested, then try the. I went into the new full time vegetarian, immediately in love with the restaurant's atmosphere may be, and I live in Long Tha Kyaw Sa family hotel is very much the same reasons, there is also the lanterns are hung with beautifully produced. Restaurant on the second floor is divided into three parts, near the window is the Western Division, the average four-table, covered with clean napkins, neatly placed the knife and fork; the middle of a buffet area, in general people are more at night; most rely on where is the Tibetan meals area, there is a very comfortable sofa, bench, you can sit cross-legged, like as kang, a small table was short, very wide desktop to meet the guests big appetite. The boss is a Nepalese, you guys are all fluent in English, pronunciation is very accurate, I think the Tibetans learn foreign languages easier than we Chinese people, because there are many of them Tibetan retroflex, coupled with religions of the terminology and some are from Nepal and India, so they learn the language condition is unique. I found a window table you can see not far from the Jokhang Temple, Barkhor Street corner of the shop and between populations, as well as parking. Breathe the air bar in Lhasa, which is the first time in the past few days are relaxed, there is no road to run around, there is no hurry hard and enjoy the gift of the city of Nikko bar, the sun too oblique pane, in August of Lhasa is the year the hottest time. Looked magnificent golden dome of the Jokhang Temple, bustling crowd merged into colored rivers, particularly warm feelings. I order a three pounds of butter tea, a bowl of yogurt and a roast leg of lamb, a very hearty meal, it should be authentic bar. Butter tea with fragrant with thick, very tasty, a bit like someone else said, so difficult to drink; yogurt is sour, so coupled with honey, until now I was in Shanghai surprise Suannai honey has also become a habit; mutton fresh plump, roasted have the furnace just right, that's great is that too much! When paying the bill, just encountered a middle-aged Tibetans to determine the buffet here and the boss and the number of recipes, I helped take a look at the venue, lighting and so on. Later, the eight coffee profiles met him, he is actually?? Let's hear next time you break down, anyway, is a sub-tropical climate bar.
Do not know why I never liked school pa lang hotels and guest houses in Asia. Barao school room planting density is too high, the walls between rooms are not only separated by wood, I think this is next door to speak either affect or be next door effect. Although the Asia Hotel hotel, but the standard room is not large, although the service very good. However, if you are looking for chartered together, or go there. That night, I went to inquire about there. The result is people are frustrated, because the originally scheduled August 9 to Nagqu starting to see a horse racing festival 4500 Nissan car, actually two hours before departure is a problem, then I can only think of other ways.
Back to the Long Tha Kyaw Sa family hotel, I've met many new roommate households, there are three girls come in Guangdong, but also to Lhasa was encountered, it is intended to go together. A people of Taiwan, saying it was engaged in photography and painting, in addition to heavy backpack but also have a crazy sale of "Tibet in leather-covered books," Taiwan version. 1 Peking Man, just fly to Lhasa, is recovering from altitude sickness. Three South Koreans, are students studying Mandarin in China, including a pair of lovers. 3 Guangdong girls were particularly articulate, as if suddenly, and everyone is familiar, and also told me that one of them said, and I have a good day to the Potala Palace, the other two to go Sky burial. Three South Koreans seem to be more interested and I speak Chinese, Beijingers say anything not in the mood, said he hoped the people of Taiwan have come to expect from Lhasa Xinjiang. In this way, nine roommate, is actually quite interesting, at least you can understand how different people experience different road.
