2012年6月2日，又逢周六，天气阴，我决定从河北省邢台市邢台县西黄村镇的前马厂村翻山越岭到后青峪村再到上马庄最后到邢台县皇寺。早8点我从前马厂村北侧开始上山，到皇寺正好中午12点。嗨，一边登山一边听自己喜欢的音乐，那种感觉真的超爽超美妙哦，现在我爬山的感觉很爽，脚步轻快，如同走在平路上一样。上山下山都没有一丝累的感觉。朋友都说佩服我的毅力，其实，登山并不需要毅力，而是一种爱好，一种享受，我爱登山！人生是一次登山，沿途有擦肩而过的荆棘刺痛，有粗砺的山岩的拌脚，但这一切均无损于山的光明磊落，山的坦荡忠诚。　　人们常常抱怨登山道路的坎坷，登山路途的遥远，害怕山中的荆棘和山岩。弱者在山的前面俯首臣服，不敢上前；强者不畏艰难险阻，涉水翻山。在翻越了大山之后，我发现：原来成功在山后。　　山险固然可怕，山路固然难走。但人们同时也应想到：登山道路周围的景色是何等之秀美，有青山翠树的美景，有极目远望的无限风光，有鸟儿婉转的歌唱声，有泉水叮咚的悦耳声。　　其实，我们可以换个角度去看待山。为什么不把山看作是磨练自己的工具呢？一路登山，一路欣赏美景，一路磨练自己。待翻越了大山，成功也就在你的前面了。　　生活中的困难是一座座的山，要想取得成功，你就必须不怕坎坷曲折，不惧山高路远，努力拼搏，战胜困难。也许你会有“山重水复疑无路”的感觉，也许你会感到精疲力尽，也许你心中会升起后退的念头，但是，“天将降大任于斯人也，必先苦其心志，劳其筋骨，饿其体肤，空乏其身，行拂乱其所为，所以动心忍性，曾益其所不能“。你应该认识到成功就在困难的后面，只要你鼓起风帆，坚持到底，终会到达成功的彼岸。　　成功，永远在山的后面，牵引着人一生不息的脚步，风霜雪雨，一路踉呛赶去。只有走过一生泥泞的道路，才能摘到芬芳艳丽的成功之花! 行走在前马厂村—皇寺的山路上！行走在前马厂村—皇寺的山路上！行走在前马厂村—皇寺的山路上！见到的红布条，路！很亲切！行走在前马厂村—皇寺的山路上！遇到一群驴友！行走在前马厂村—皇寺的山路上！上马庄村天真孩童！行走在前马厂村—皇寺的山路上！上马庄村！沿途见到的红布条，路！很亲切！行走在前马厂村—皇寺的山路上！行走在前马厂村—皇寺的山路上！行走在前马厂村—皇寺的山路上！行走在前马厂村—皇寺的山路上！看到了棋盘山！行走在前马厂村—皇寺的山路上！见到的红布条，路！很亲切！([]

今年2.29—3.25，完成了向往已久的尼泊尔EBC徒步和景区旅游，我们的路线是：成都—加都—卢卡拉—EBC(三人原路返回，一人穿越CHO LA PAAS从GOKYO返回)—卢卡拉—加都—博卡拉—蓝毗尼—奇特旺—加都—成都。产生徒步尼泊尔EBC的愿望，最早是因为两年前在我参加活动的杭州起点登山队的论坛上看到“小妖精FAY”的一个帖子《天堂的约会-尼泊尔14日无背夫无向导徒步》（本论坛也有此帖），当时立马“中毒”，心想“杭州小妖精”去得，难道“杭州老妖怪”就去不得？年轻人能够重装无向导，我老头轻装用背夫总可以吧？话是这么说，形成决定还需多方了解情况，掂斤估两。我自己的情况是：65岁，数年前被医生宣布为高血压病人，需每天服药降压；从03年起间或参加过不少杭州周围野山的登山活动，体能在团队中属中下等； 2009年5月去川藏，在定日珠峰大本营徒步5公里，2010年春节从德钦雨崩徒步到梅里雪山大本营，这两次高原行走都感觉高反轻微；去年五一，作为EBC徒步的热身去爬了浙西清凉峰（海拔1787.4米， 8.5小时上下），下山时陡坡砾石路很难走，把四个脚趾盖都顶黑了，筋疲力尽，但还是跟上队伍走完了全程（能不跟上吗？）。浏览了不少有关EBC徒步的网帖，反复权衡，最终的结论是：走EBC不需要超强的体力，但需要有一点意志和耐力，需要有高原行走适应高反的经历，因此我基本上是能够胜任的，尽管从古狗卫星图上看下去，我们将要走的路是如此严酷狰狞。根据旅行必须“有钱有闲”的条件，我把出发日期定在2012年初，在杭州19楼，8264，磨房，台湾背包客栈上都发了招伴帖，帖子发出后，前前后后来联系的有二十多人，包括香港，日本，台湾的驴友，但因为我的日程较长，上班族假期不够或不对应，最后成行的只有四人，其实，这样的徒步旅行结伴最好也就是4-6人，人多了容易意见分歧各行其是。在搜集尼泊尔旅行资料做攻略的过程中，除了上面提到“杭州小妖精”的帖子，对我帮助最大的就是简如邠女士的书《尼泊尔玩全秘笈》，尽管这本书的大陆版本完全以“中国”的面目出现，没有一字提到台湾，但一看行文风格便知这本书是台湾作者写的。在此真心对这两位女菩萨致谢。出发前一天晒装备，说明如下：60升背包自重2.2公斤,总重11.5公斤，EBC路上拿出自己背装相机水壶的小背包，托付给背夫的重量是8.5公斤。考虑到走EBC本人体力有限，没有带笨重的单反，只带了两个傻瓜机，打印机用来现场打印小照片讨尼泊尔小盆友的喜欢。事后最满意的装备：骆驼全防水登山鞋（740元），天石海子羽绒睡袋（淘宝886元，舒适温零下4°C--零下11°C,充绒800克，自重1.4公斤），宜家0.5升保暖瓶（29元，看瓶贴属日本退货，却是我用过的水瓶中保温效果最好的，让我能在雪山上喝到热水）。为了保持对外联络并免去网本的重量，专门买了一个爱疯4替换原来300元的双卡山寨手机.因为后来三人放弃了计划中的CHO LA PASS, 所以雪套冰爪都没用上。D0 (2月29日）上海--成都又一次来到这个驴友中转城市，免不了再去逛逛锦里。D1 (3月1日）成都--加德满都（Kathmandu)950从成都起飞， 1130左右飞越喜马拉雅山脉。80年代某个夏天曾首次飞越喜马拉雅，那时只看到一片赭色的高原，如同火星表面，没有任何生命迹象，也十分震撼，现在则疑惑当时为什么没有看到积雪呢？飞临加都河谷上空加都国际机场，尼泊尔欢迎你网上招伴集结的四个人（来自杭州，嘉兴，漳州）在加都机场外，一副神采飞扬的样子， EBC的冰天雪地正等着狠狠地折磨这四个小子。到达塔梅尔区东口。在所住旅馆对门的旅行代理处买了明天去LUKLA的小飞机票（往返205美元），换了足够的卢比。大街上的尼共竞选广告。外国游客受到尼泊尔武警的严密保护：）自己去尼泊尔旅游局办理进山证（TIMS)，每份1600卢比。如果委托旅游代理办，每份要2000卢比，但如果你和代理有其他生意可做，如委托其代办旅馆，机票，团队游，雇佣向导背夫等等，代理也可能向你提供只要1000卢比或10美元的进山证，其中有何奥妙他们自己知道。街上的骑警，把照片在电视机上放大看才看出骑警是位女性，正用冷峻的眼神瞟我这位“老外”的镜头。人行天桥上的盲人乞丐。穿过加都最热闹的传统集市阿森街（ASON TOL)。杜邦广场纳拉扬神庙距离这个“苦行僧”的背影十几米远按下了快门，不料他却听到了“咔嚓”声立马转过身朝我走来，“哈哈，可逮着你了，100卢比！”--看他的表情我猜想他心里是这样想的，他走近向我讨钱，我假装听不懂他的话一脸茫然双手乱挥，最后不了了之。湿婆和帕尔瓦蒂在他们的神庙上方俯视着芸芸众生。尼泊尔人90%信印度教，湿婆（SHIVA）是三大神祗之一，主管生殖与毁灭，虽是外形是女的，却是个男儿身（像佛教的观音菩萨？），以男性生殖器（LINGGAM)为象征；帕尔瓦蒂是湿婆的配偶，是喜马拉雅雪山神女，代表幸福美满的婚姻，以女性生殖器（YONI)为象征。D2 （3月2日） KATHMANDU--LUKLA (海拔2840)--PHAKDING(2610)--MONJO(2840)加都国内机场大厅买的是YETI的机票，坐的是TARA的飞机，驾驶员是典型尼泊尔美男。登机完毕，乘客中有不少当地女藏民，是去转山拜佛的。第一次坐这样的小飞机，觉得命都悬在窗外这个黑铁皮包的螺旋桨上。降落了我们的飞机卢卡拉山地机场，仅有400米斜坡跑道，据称居世界上最危险的十个机场之首。在机场出口和出发前在网上约好的两名向导背夫会面，决定今天和随后的行程安排。尼泊尔时间早上10：00启程，从机场边的小路上山。刚才得到消息, 本月14号尼泊尔AGNI公司的一架小飞机从博克拉（POKHARA)飞往江森（JOMSOM, ABC徒步的一个起点）途中因技术故障失事撞山，机上至少17人遇难。无语。愿逝者安息，一路走好。难免会想，同在2012年，为什么是ABC, 不是EBC?为什么是五月的他们，不是三月的我们？想起这次旅行前，老同事（曾在空军中维修飞机）劝我不要去坐小飞机。户外运动的风险当然比坐在家中大，但是，生命的本质，就寓在运动之中啊。夏尔巴人的孩子，也许从小就学习这种用头顶承重的负荷方式了。1400到PHAKDING午餐， 1710到MONJO投宿。我们的向导（左）和背夫（右），向导能英语会话，书写也很漂亮，背夫是他徒弟，看上去18岁都不到吧。 D3 MONJO(2840)—NAMCHE (3440)萨加马塔国家公园门口。在这里查验进山证和购买门票（每人1000卢比）。珠穆朗玛峰（藏语，圣女峰）在尼泊尔语中为萨加马塔峰（SAGARMATHA）,西方人则习惯称埃佛勒斯特峰（MOUNT. EVEREST），是为了纪念英国统治印度和尼泊尔时，负责测量喜马拉雅山脉的印度测量局局长George Everest。办公室内记载每年每月进山人数的表牌，2012年3月还是空白。路遇一位在事故中失去一条胳膊的夏尔巴向导，他仍在继续他的职业。据说今天的路陡升600米比较费劲，结果却没有感觉，上午8：00出发，中午1230即到目的地NAMCHE。下午到市场上去购物，买了气罐，矿泉水，夏尔巴帽等等。投宿HOTEL TIBET.旅馆店堂里纪念1953年新西兰人希拉里和他的夏尔巴向导诺尔盖首次登上珠峰的的招贴。小时候（1956年）我在上海黄陂路南京路口（现上海美术馆）看过一个《印度摄影展览会》，里面有首次登上珠峰的诺尔盖的照片，所以一直以为首次登上珠峰的是个印度人。 D4NAMCHE(3440)--TENGBOCHE(3860)上午10：00从NAMCHE 出发据向导说这座塔是纪念首次登上珠峰的夏尔巴人诺尔盖的。下午1720在一片阴霾中到达TENGBOCHE的客栈 D5TENGBOCHE(3860)--DINGBOCHE(4410)早上起来挂在室内的毛巾成了冰棍，说明室温在零度左右，自己的睡袋加客栈的一条毯子，基本可以睡得比较暖和。早餐。 NAMCHE以上客栈的房价是100卢比/人，早中晚餐的价格基本上是300-450卢比一餐，热水300卢比/一热水瓶，牦牛奶400卢比/一热水瓶，充电300卢比/一次。牦牛所背货物的外包装是“浙江温岭工业园区”的饲料袋。今天是上午820出发，下午1550到DINGBOCHED6DINGBOCHE （4410）今天在DINGBOCHE停留一天，适应海拔。客栈店堂里台湾驴友的帖子。晒鞋，烧水泡方便面。夕阳下的 AMA DABLAM 峰（海拔6858米）D7DINGBOCHE (4410)--LOBUCHE（4940）早餐后在客栈店堂里和房东合影，山上所有的店堂都是同一格局，屋中央通常有个火炉，四周墙边连上约70公分宽50公分高的坐台，上铺毛毡，再放一圈餐桌，白天可当餐厅，晚间遇旺季客人爆满时可让客人睡在坐台上。柜台上贴了告示提醒健行者在此购买巧克力瓶装水等物资，再上去越高越贵。能和心爱的人一起神游喜马拉雅山真是人生莫大的快乐啊，后面是KANGTEGA峰（6778米）早上7：50出发，1020到TUKLA午餐，各国登山队健行者都习惯事先做好不干胶LOGO一路留名，俺们下次也要学这一招。这次只能用随身带的红色唛头笔留名（见上方）。爬坡上了这个垭口是一片开阔地，这里有许多在山难中殒命的夏尔巴人和各国登山者的灵塔。夏尔巴人用石块垒的灵塔。这个德州达拉斯的小伙子25岁就没了，不知是在雪山冲顶中遇难还是在高反中一睡不起了。亲属的铭文是“愿他的灵魂在此永生，我们爱你，我们想你”。在温暖的阳光下看着，读着，泪水忽然涌上了眼眶。缺氧，大脑有点迷糊，在平坦的开阔地，EBC的温和阳光令人感到舒服，空气中好像有一种甜蜜的意味，体力消耗似到极限，几乎想就地躺下不再起来，怎么样？像很多高反患者那样，睡下去就不起来了如何？把所有的烦恼一下全部扔在身后，这样的离开世界也未尝不好啊。亲历过许多长辈和同辈的去世，病人躺在医院病床上，围着一大堆心思各异的亲友，身上插满管子，连着生命监护仪，用各种药物维持血压，心率，血氧饱和度等各项指，延长濒死者的生命，最后再尝试用大电极刺激心脏复苏 - - 难道这样的死就好么？人的血液里，或多或少流动着早先荒野上群居动物的基因，那些喜欢亲近大自然的登山者探险家的生死观，肯定会和一般人有差别啊。我们还在向LOBUCHE靠拢，这位法国大哥已经从EBC下来了，这是我见到的最嬉皮士的“驴友”，脚蹬硬底大皮鞋，身穿一件到处是破洞的皮大衣，用一根带子背着一个SACK (单口帆布袋，或曰小偷越货用的大袋子），没有帽子围巾，没有登山杖，没有开麦拉，可令所有讲究名牌的“装备控”驴友目瞪口呆 - - - - 前方左面是PUMO RI (7165米），右面是LINGTREN (6749米）。下午1510到LOBUCHE, 今天走的路在地图上量得的直线距离是9公里，但实际上上下下的距离是多少，就不清楚了。空中不时响起救援直升机的声音，把严重的高反病人送往加德满都救治，一次救助飞行需5000-6000美元。出发前买过人民币165元的美亚保险，一旦出险只要报保单号就可以得到先行救助，但这样的飞行享受还是不要为好。([

心灵的旅行——28天西藏、尼泊尔行前言多年来，一直有个愿望，就是能够去西藏看看，虽然在电视里已经领略了西藏的广遨、美丽，但那面积122万多平方公里、约占中国陆地总面积的八分之一、在中国各省区中仅次于新疆维吾尔自治区、位居第二、相当于英国、法国、德国、荷兰和卢森堡5国面积总和的神秘地区，还是想亲身去体验一下。朋友们都劝我不要到哪具有不确定因素和危险性的地方去，那里的高海拔、藏民的不友好、饮食的不习惯、气候的变幻莫测、道路的不安全等等都会给去的人有着潜在的威胁，无论人们怎样的诉说着西行的危险，都阻挡不了我要去的决心。人生无非就是两件事：生与死。生了，即意味着走向死亡，只是在从生到死的过程中，每个人的表现形式不同，每个人都在寻求着生命的长度，但生命仅仅有长度是不够的，还需要有一定的宽度。在某种意义上，我们每个人的生命的长度是不确定的、也是自己无法掌控的，但是其生命的宽度是可以自己支配的。我只希望在我的有生之年，能够让自己活得自由、活得充实、活得快乐、活得有意义。今年的7月终于有了这样一个合适的机会，由原始部落户外群海风发起的西藏自由行成行，且行程比较符合我的心意，我毅然决然的跟随了这支团队进藏。从7月23日出发，到8月21日回连，历经28天的游历，期间的酸甜苦辣咸五味俱全，对生命有了更多的感悟。从新浦火车站起始，经历了徐州、兰州、西宁的三次转车，沿着青藏线坐着火车去拉萨；从拉萨证去尼泊尔，到坐着尼国的直升飞机回到樟木口岸，期间享受着着尼国的自然美景、宗教文化、异国美食，承受着山体倒塌，村庄被覆盖、村民遇难和失踪的惊吓，忍耐着尼国的酷热和道路不通的焦虑；从樟木口岸沿着318国道回拉萨的途中，在颠簸的路上欣赏那沿途的如诗如画的美景时，惊闻一辆承载44位游客的旅游大巴车，在我们已经过去的路段上，和对面开来的越野车、皮卡车相撞，翻下十几米的悬崖，车毁人亡；在拉萨，我们9人乘坐着包租的两辆商务车，沿着318国道去成都。青山绿水的美景，伴随着泥石流和道路塌方，惊险的318国道伴随着两辆商务车的分别出故障；在九寨沟的静海前，我们为第二辆旅游大巴的翻车而痛心，为遇难的游客默哀。感谢上苍对我的厚爱，感谢爱我的人为我的祈祷，感谢西藏给我的洗礼，感谢我自己的坚强、豁达和乐观。我安全的、健康的、快乐的回来了美丽的措那湖土族第一村——互助村([]

今年的最后一帖，索性将八月份的行程全部放在这儿吧，拖了太久了，之前写完两篇穿越帖后，脑子里好像对写帖没啥感觉了，过了这一段时间，心中也基本上有了大概的思绪，再加上最近结束了几门课程，可以腾出时间来赶在2013年结束前将图片和文字整理上来。此帖与大家分享的是今年暑假我完成贡嘎转山和亚泸线穿越之后的行程，两次穿越花的时间不到一个月，还有一个多月的时间便是这篇帖子的行程了。帖子分成两部分：一、从云南经214、318、317、219国道搭车至拉萨。二、单骑103.7元8天骑行青藏线拉萨至沱沱河（含纳木错）用布达拉宫作为这篇帖子的开始吧，它是终点，亦是起点。https//www.9ku.com/share/true_226495/singleplayer.swfps如不看回帖，可点击“只看该我，给予我精神上支持的朋友，同样要感谢，每次在路上看到你们的鼓励，心里都特感动！旅途中每一位帮助了我，包括对我微笑的人，无论你是过客，或是和我成为了朋友，我都和你们说谢谢，有了你们，我的旅途才精彩！感谢川西和西藏，不断的施予我，施予我以风景；施予我以感动；施予我以快乐；施予我以成长.... 从云南经214、318、317、109国道搭车至拉萨————终点亦是起点———— 来到拉萨前我以为这就是我的终点到了拉萨后我才发现它已经成了我的起点了我的终点已不知所踪一年前我开始接触藏地，并深深为之着迷，时隔一年，再次踏入藏地，久违了。2012年8月16日，我怎能忘记这一天，那晚我的身体第一次与拉萨有了接触，眼角夺眶欲出的泪水充满的是怎样的一种情感啊，太多太多，感动、欣喜、艰苦....这一天是要来的，我知道，我会回来的，这回到拉萨的时候，我想哭，真想啊，可是哭不出来，没有泪水，也许是在2012.8.16就已经流完了吧。因为今年川藏南线人太多，所以我改道上了川藏北线，所以才有了317、109国道的行程。可是就在我上了川藏北线的第二天，通麦大桥塌了，于是南线上的进藏者都涌上了北线，所以我又陷入了我不喜欢的“热闹”中，小小的郁闷了一下，不过北线的风景也还是很漂亮的。丽江：在宁蒗偶遇四个到泸沽湖的背包的，也是要回丽江，于是五人包车赶往丽江，每人50元，价格还是挺便宜的，到丽江的时候天已黑了，还好有个女孩在丽江住过一家很便宜的客栈，打电话过去，说是还有床位，我心想，终于马上可以洗澡洗衣服躺在床上睡觉了，亚泸线这几天天天下雨，我身上都快发霉了。客栈价钱真便宜，第一天晚上床位比较紧张，于是我睡的过道上的床位，10块钱。第二天就换到房间里去了，好像是二十还是二十五块钱，这么便宜的客栈，真舍不得走。第二天洗了澡，洗了衣服，爽得不得了，客栈老板也挺好的。第二天下午我打算到古城里去转转，在去年我在路上听王哥和我讲起丽江，虽然没什么欲望，但来了还是去古城转转，天还下着细雨，我的伞落在屋角的龙布大哥家了，不过下的不大，没啥影响。丽江古城南门古城里的店面古城垂柳在古城瞎逛，石头上的城南旧事。不算广告吧，哈哈....我也不知道里面卖啥的古城里的川菜馆，我见过最多的菜馆非川菜馆莫属，开遍全国各地。古城建筑终于见到这传说中的一米阳光，在古城，艳遇似乎成了来这里的理由我瞎逛，一不小心在古城里找到了8264的旗帜，希望这旗帜像川菜馆一样挂遍全国各地古城酒吧神话酒吧，看上去很高端的样子转山转水转经筒我进一米阳光去看了一下，听到几个人在问服务员在这儿消费要多少钱，服务员说最小的那个桌子，一桌一千六百几来着，我马上闪出来。应该是“我愿化身石桥”，他这是木桥，有点不合适，嘿嘿....北京青年的拍摄酒吧，看过几集，就没再看了。古城外的大水车说来也挺巧，我在古城瞎逛的时候，遇见了在泸沽湖碰见的三个背包客。于是我们就一起逛古城，走到这家碟店时，我说敲敲鼓吧，不一会儿，雨下大了，于是我在碟店敲了几个小时的非洲鼓，主要是因为我比较喜欢敲，后面那小姑娘切歌和我们一起敲，走时在这儿买了一张碟。谁想？排着去。逛完古城我带着三人到我住的客栈，，晚上他们在外面吹牛，我就不瞎掺合了，再说我也不是很喜欢，在房间里收拾东西，明天就准备离开丽江了。没什么留恋的，说实话，丽江古城与我而言，完全没有吸引力，我始终还是觉得这里浮躁多一些，而且古城里也没啥玩的，都是商店、酒吧。就那碟店还比较好玩。之前有朋友建议束河还不错，但天气一直不转好，想想还是走算了。就这样，在古城待的时间才半天，我就往香格里拉去了。丽江的艳遇吸引了很多人，唯独没有吸引我，在丽江，我真的没有感觉的到有任何让我爱上这个地方的理由。很多人喜欢丽江，所以我就不再说太多了，到此为止吧，爱，不需要理由，不爱，也不需要理由。搭车往香格里拉的途中是艰苦的，为什么呢？我哪儿是搭车，那天，天朗气清，我知道路上有很多人，但没想到有那么多人，还有一个什么学生组成的一个组织，好像有近百人呢，都在搭车，我遇见了几个，这么多人，不遇见都不行啊，他们告诉我，他们是到一个地方就去小学、敬老院....这些地方做好事，姑且划到公益旅行一类吧。他们要到虎跳峡，我心想这么多人，还是你们先走吧，我先走一段，结果这一走啊，就走了四十多公里，我自己都想不明白我怎么走了这么远。在路上歇的时候，都四点多钟了，我就伸手这么一拦，之前拦过很多次，不停啊。可是这次不一样，这次是停了，我心想老天还是眷顾我的，关键时刻给我以希望啊。司机师傅很爽快，我说搭车去香格里拉，立马让我上车了，上车后发现车上还搭了俩啊，司机师傅小两口在前面，人特好，途中我们停下歇的时候从车上拿吃的给藏族小朋友，和他们聊天发现两人很善良，在路上还看到了彩虹，漂亮极了，这是这一路上第三次看到彩虹了。到香格里拉的时候天还没黑，下车和司机师傅道谢后到了月光广场，让我意想不到的是，在这里竟又遇见了在泸沽湖遇见的那几个人，而且还有几个不认识的和他们一起，所以，接下来就一起在独克宗古城玩啦。在丽江前往香格里拉途中远眺被云雾遮挡的哈巴雪山这里好像是那啥长江第一弯来着，拍的角度不对，看不出来香格里拉独克宗古城的月光广场，到这里时天刚开始黑，看到广场高处有一又高又大的转经筒，我想，这就是那传说中世界上最大的转经筒了吧，传说里面有上亿卷经书，不过官方数据好像没这么多世界上最大的转经筒，金黄色的经筒是独克宗古城的地月光广场上藏民们跳起了热情洋溢的锅庄，我一直想跳锅庄来着，可惜不会跳。锅庄是非常热情的舞蹈，配合藏族歌曲，跳起来很有感觉呢。这就是那最大的转经筒，在此又遇见了在泸沽湖和丽江碰到的几人。转经筒需一二十人合力才能转动，我转经筒三圈，完了入大佛寺上香祈福。相比大研古城，我更喜欢独克宗古城，虽然两座城是不同的民族，但很明显可以感觉到独克宗古城对当地文化的保护比大研古城好太多，在大研古城已经很难感受到纳西族的文化了，而独克宗古城虽然也与大研类似有很多酒吧和商铺，但其藏族文化却保存的很好，走在古城里的感觉就不一样，让人有留下来的冲动。与那几位遇见的背包客逛商铺时看到的天珠，这颗天珠38.9万，这还不是这家商铺里最贵的一颗。和他们去吃完东西在古城闲逛，独克宗古城里有很多外国人大叔请我们喝酒，所以就来到这家酒吧啦，大叔看起来年纪不小啊，一起玩的时候特嗨，这家酒吧是左边抽烟的太溢介绍来的，他是藏族人，认识这里的老板，那颗天珠的店铺老板也认识。这是我第一次进酒吧，虽然偶尔喜欢喝酒，但那都只是和朋友一起的时候。和这些来自天南海北的朋友一起喝酒，不问出处、不问名字，没有任何芥蒂，喝起来很开心。刚才一起吃饭的时候，与他们喝了一点白的，所以这里就没多喝，喝醉就不好了，开心就好了。对了，我还上去跳舞了，跳的可嗨了，哈哈....这是一家藏式酒吧，所以里面基本都是藏族人在酒吧闹到十二点多才离去，在广场附近搭帐篷睡下了。第二天醒的时候还早，有几辆旅游大巴刚好到广场，但游客都只是下车一两分钟拍下一两张照片之后就被导游叫上车了，每个人都有自己的旅行方式，我不能改变别人的方式，我只能改变自己，选择能让自己快乐的方式。他们是要去雨崩，而我是要进藏的，第二天花了十五元搭车到了奔子栏，晚上也是在那里扎的营，在奔子栏与一个路边的卖西瓜的果摊的藏族少年聊天聊了一个下午，挺有意思的，我还给他卖瓜呢。第一次拍星星，那晚奔子栏群星闪耀，银河划过长空，这是出发以来看到星星最多的夜晚了。这次我带了脚架，因去年在新都桥时星空像童话般美丽，于是今年我带着脚架准备在新都桥拍星星，但那几天天气不好，没有星星。不过在奔子栏总算派上用场了，可惜是第一次拍星星，技术太水了，相机也不是很给力，就给拍成这样了，下次还要再带上脚架出发。([]

Republic。在游客群中，老挝仿佛就是东南亚国家中号召力最弱的一个，或许是最易被人忽略的地方了，它既没有吴哥、蒲甘、素可泰刺痛心灵的历史古迹，也没有普吉苏梅、西哈努克、美奈芽庄那样海天一色的美景，但神秘、悠闲、恬静、与世无争，恰恰是这个小小佛国给予现代人最好的礼物。老挝，它保持了东南亚最后的原始天然和淳朴宁静，未经雕琢的自然风光和质朴天然的风土人情，与现代文明的差距正是老挝的诱人之处。尽管经济落后，物质匮乏，几乎没有工业（可能至今仍旧是世界上最平穷的25个国家之一），但小小的、懒散的、仿若时光流转回去的老挝，却令东西方背包客趋之若鹜。或许，在原始的状态中享受悠闲的快乐，是种更为直接更为本真的快乐。是的，老挝没有令人失魂落魄大惊大艳的风景人文，老挝有的，只是平淡渗透的美。只要你走近它就会发现，老挝其实就像那著名的Lao coffee，看似清苦，但在唇齿舌尖滑过之后，便会在心中印下淡淡的甘美。走过老挝、放逐欲望。去吧，去老挝！享受现代人稀罕的慢时光......年初从南越旅行回来的时候，都不曾想到自己十一长假会游到老挝。还是因各位老挝游回来的前辈，在网上留下了太多精美诱惑的PP和文字，加之查到2007年老挝当选LP背包客最想去的地方之一，心里面一下子就放不开老挝咯！这竟促使我改变了“提前一年就定好旅行时间和地点”的老习惯，最终在六月份上亚航下了订单，这次老挝旅行就这样突如其来鸟。十天的辗转颠簸下来，总的来说，老挝之行比想象中轻松，之前一直担心的交通衔接问，由于旅游市场的逐步成熟，现在都有代理或GH可以预定点到点的大巴联票了，让游客省了不少力，真不错呢！趁着刚回来的新鲜劲儿，赶紧把实际行程和tips记下来，以供向往它的XDJM们参考吧。实际行程： D1 昆明，傍晚1830卧铺大巴（新螺蛳湾南部客运站、24h、￥374）发车 D2 大巴临晨430途经勐腊~730重新出发~930途径磨憨~1030口岸过境+老挝磨丁Beton入境~之后沿老挝13号公路开行~ 1930 到达琅勃拉邦Luang Prabang城郊的北星宾馆。 D3 琅勃拉邦（清早看布施&逛早市、下午光西瀑布Tat Kuang Si、傍晚观湄公河日落、夜市购物） D4

Keo）；傍晚万象~亚航~返程D11Tips 1、关于季节的问：我们的十一长假，正处于东南亚雨季的尾巴。一般每天都会有阵雨，有时是一个多小时的倾盆暴雨，有时却只滴几粒眼泪水，最适宜的是晚上的那场阵雨。白天温度，也就在30~33°C，不下雨的时候阳光灿烂够晒滴，到了夜晚会好过一点22~25°C，通风好的房间只用吊扇就将就OK了（房间要开空调的话，那可是另一个价咯）。但十一长假，却正好在老挝的旅游淡季里头（老挝旅游旺季是11~2月），呵呵，游客少，确实感受很深啊，不用担心好的GH客满，还可以低价入住！吃饭、订车票、户外活动也一样不用担心拥挤。十一长假去的优点还有，植被茂盛稻田原野葱绿很养眼，缺点则是雨季河水太浑浊，湄公河几乎变“黄河”了，光西瀑布的钙化池也是黄蜡蜡的，全然没了“小黄龙”的影子，没有诱人的碧池，也容易失去下水的欲望。 2、关于老挝筛选游地的提示：游客常去的老挝游点有：琅勃拉邦、万荣、万象、四千岛、丰沙湾、占巴色、波罗芬高原。因时间路线和个人兴趣之故，我们只去了前面四地。琅勃拉邦——位于上寮，是老挝古都，必去！其中最大的看点在于：清早布施、逛夜市购物、光西瀑布钙化池跳水、普西山日落、香通寺的生命之树。万荣——位于中寮。卡斯特地貌，探洞、骑行、turbing漂流、跳水、皮划艇、篝火狂bar......是鬼佬弄出来的户外活动经典之地，被称“山寨版阳朔”，两者的确很像，不过个人看法是：万荣就是万荣，不要以为去过阳朔就可以忽略万荣了。...以前，万荣遍布含大麻的酒饮，菜单上称之“happy xx”的，现在老挝禁毒，表面上几乎已绝迹了。万象——位于中寮，是老挝首都，可能是世界上唯一位于边境的国家首都了吧，感觉上是很平易近人的一个国都。另，不要理解字面意思，“万象”可是一头大象也没有的，其实“万象”是粤语的译音，普通话直接音译应该接近“万听”之类的，台湾人则叫它“万珍”（呵呵，台湾人按照古时候的称谓，还称老挝为“寮国”的）。四千岛——位于下寮，在与柬埔寨接壤的湄公河上，灰常原生态！鬼佬心仪之地。骑行、游船、河钓、晒太阳、看书、写东西、想心事、发呆、乱转......反正你去那里就准备好kill time就好咯。丰沙湾——位于上寮，以看平原石缸为卖点的原生态地区，据说能看到更淳朴的清晨布施。占巴色——位于下寮，也很原生态，以一处比吴哥历史还早的高棉石窟而著名，只是破坏程度也更厉害了。 ......没想到实际走下来，个人最喜欢的是万荣和东德岛两地，而且特遗憾的是都只住了一晚！！同伴J-J同学很经典地说，那是因为近来太忙的人才会喜欢乡下生活，哈哈，要是闲人会更喜欢琅勃拉邦和万象舒适的生活了吧。所以，提醒一下生长在乡间和城市的同学，别盲目跟风，要选对自己的地方，毕竟像咱这类穷人上班族，假期和米米都很有限呐，要珍惜！ 3、特别需要提醒携带的东东：耳塞防high噪音、水上活动时的防水袋、飞机和夜行大巴上披的外套、色彩艳丽轻便的晴雨伞、高指数防晒霜、太阳镜、蚊不叮or驱虫软膏。（如果陆路过境的话，很可能刚进咱边警的出境楼，就被直接捉到2楼交40大元办黄本本--健康证了，不过换回来的3颗防疟疾药片和一小支军医院出品的长效驱虫膏，俺们都用了，尤其那个驱蚊膏，比较了带去的其他产品，那效果，还真不是一般的好啊，真意外！所以，还是要相信老军医喔，哈哈）其他可选的还有：mm的防晒薄长袖衣、骑行郊游用的防晒大沿儿帽、泳衣外的纱笼、以及无烟盘香、带USB口的插座、湿纸巾...... 建议携带药物：抗过敏药、奎宁防疟疾、藿香正气水、黄连素、维生素等...... 4、换汇经验：磨憨口岸的人民币换汇最高，我们9.25过关时换到的是“ 1人民币 CNY = 1201老挝基普 LAK ”，跟出行前查的汇率相差很小。后来在老挝一路上的Exchange窗口看了，人民币换汇一路下跌啊，最高也就只有1180了，倒是感觉用美金换的汇率好，一般都稳定在8.1~8.0x左右（1 美元USD = 8100老挝基普 LAK），跟国际汇率相差不大。注意一下，在磨憨口岸出关前（就是大巴停在关口一下车）就要换好钱，其实大巴前面停在磨憨车站时，就有不少当地妇女手里拿大沓的老挝基普围kip上来要换汇了（一般她们的喊价很难再还价的，即使你们有好几个人一起换大额）。因为你下了大巴不换钱，一旦进入中国这边的出境办公楼，给边警看了护照盖了出境章就得从另一面大门出去，这一脚跨出境，出了门就不让停留了，更别说换钱了，哪怕你跟换钱的妇女只隔一栏杆。另外，兑换老币kip时一定不要怕麻烦，千万记住要当面清点清楚，否则可能发生缺张的情况，以及币值给错的“意外”情况，在老挝境内使用老币时也得一样小心！经验是注意下区分大面额5W和2W，都是粉红色的，还有老币常用的最小面值一千的纸币上，那个老挝数字1长得很像阿拉伯数字9喔，别慌慌张张的搞晕了！（呵呵，事实上也不可能存在有九千票面的钱币哒）。其实老币也有500面值和100面值的小纸币，有时候你换汇或在超市购物找零，常常被莫名地去零头，可别轻易地算了，记得老币也有小面值的喔，拿来留作纪念也蛮好滴。老挝币只有纸币没有硬币的，简称kip，老挝币里头“零”太多，一般就以W为单位去计算老币就好了。跟人民币的快速等值换算，就是乘以8再去掉后面4个“零”，差不多就是人民币的当值咯，比如，老挝人比划价钱说1Wkip（一般会说英语ten，就是“十千”kip），其实相当于人民币8块钱左右。 5、便利的长途大巴联票：很高兴地是，发现现在老挝境内的旅游地，诸如万荣~万象~巴色~四千诸岛，都可以买到联票了，这跟在越南走open tour公司车票、以及在尼泊尔代理车票都是类似的，很方便，票价呢也并非贵多少！尤其是去四千岛的3个岛（东阔岛、东德岛、东昆岛），原本看前辈的游记中提起，都得靠自己一程程链接砍价找车，麻烦又费时还要担心衔接问，但现在都可以订到车船联票咯，呵呵，也就是说，你买了他们的联票，就不怕赶不上每一个环节的大巴咯，真是省心呀。另外，也有发完境外泰国、越南、柬埔寨各地的联票，大大地方便了串游东南亚的XDJM们。 6、城镇内交通：太远不能走路过去时，就靠tuktuk（或者jump）了，实质是三轮摩托的改装小车，前者小点。坐tutu车前一定要先讲好价、手写出来示意，因为老挝币的“零”太多了，尤其是在万象“大”城市，还很可能被故意混淆teen和ty的发音，1.8W和8W差的可不是一点儿，会被骗惨！另，旺季一定特别要跟车主谈好，包车中途是否准许再上人，不然相信会被挤扁。现在tutu一般起价都叫1W/人，即使在这样的淡季，有时还会蒙5W/2人的。在车站内和游客聚居区要还下来价格较难，所以一般就自己背包走出车站外面，或走一段远离游客区，再拦车砍价更好。小经验：只要是在琅勃拉邦城内转悠，当地人乘的tutu价格是0.5Wkip；在万象，别相信那些景点tutu车主拿出的价格表，那高得真是太昧良心了！ 7、通讯用老挝手机卡：强烈建议穷游一族在到达当日就买好老挝SIM卡！老挝的手机卡很好买，小店里都有。我们买的M PHONE卡，2Wkip，里面还含差不多20~30分钟的老挝境内通话时间（没仔细记录，粗估的）。老挝有2大通讯公司，一个是ETL,另外一个是LAO TEL。使用老挝的电话卡，单向收费，接听全免费，包括接听国际长途哦。建议买LAO TEL的M PHONE 电话卡，老挝境内差不多700kip一分钟，打回中国的话自动转成IP（就是直接0086-地区号-你要拨打的号码就可以了），2000kip左右一分钟。而ETL比较麻烦，打长话必须要加188，就变成了IP，如果不加188，那个费用吓死你！附，中国通移动开通国际漫游的老挝资费准：(1).拨打当地电话4.99/分钟，拨中国国内电话0086+号码12.99/分钟，接听电话5.99/分钟。可以选择中国移动推出的**139优惠业务拨打国内电话，费用与接听相同5.99/分，每分钟可节省7 元。使用方法：拨国内手机拨**139*86 手机号＃，固话拨**139*86区号用户号＃，成功呼出后手机上会显示“Ok.Please wait”字样，此时可挂机等待约半分钟，移动会为您接通电话回拨过来。若被叫未接听电话则无需支付费用。(2).发国内用户短信1.99/条，接收短信免费。 8、生活：老挝是220V电压与国内相同，大部分GH里的插头都是2孔的。一般Guset House的开价，用空调的普遍比只用吊扇的贵2Wkip。特别指出一点，中文版的《LP老挝》一书版本较早，其中GH指导价格早已过时，甚至有些推荐的食店也早就关张找不到了（这点在琅勃拉邦特别突出）。饮水，大的GH里有大净水桶，可以灌装。一般就自己在小店买6软瓶一组的瓶装饮用水，最高买过0.8W一组在四千岛，最低是0.5W一组在万象。好像洋鬼子都很喜欢买这种软瓶装，他们鬼着呢，估计这样买水最合算。老挝小超市很多，日用品一应俱全，很方便。比如小小90ml的飘柔洗发水也就合人民币四五块钱，比越南还便宜点儿呢。街头Massage的小店很多，相对上海的美体店那是便宜得很，不过老挝的style用力太温柔，不够爽，用的精油也不够好。 9、小吃吃经验：这个季节水果就买那种小米芭蕉吧，因为都是自然熟的，甜而糯很美味，比大香蕉还好吃。一扇小米芭蕉的当地价是0.5kip，记住喔！街上有水果小推车，有剥好的柚子卖，0.5Wkip一个挺甘甜的，也有认不得的绿色佛手果，没尝。街上小零食推车有卖煮玉米、煮盐水花生、煮小红薯的，还有烤小米芭蕉的小摊子，3只0.1Wkip，烤过之后的味道就像烘山芋，真神奇！在琅勃拉邦街头，常见一种现场烤制的小椰汁糕，并不甜腻而是香糯，是很美味的甜品喔！法棍还不错很便宜，街头本地人小摊0.1Wkip一小根，还有许多法棍夹菜吃法的小推车，跟越南街头的很相似，有的鬼佬就在街头买这种法棍夹菜三明治来吃，呵呵，便宜又饱肚。老挝的汤粉不如越南的好吃，可能有个人口感的缘故吧。总觉得老挝本地人吃的偏咸，花式粥啊米粉啊都不敢多喝，甚至老挝油条里也都会放点儿调味料。老挝的咖啡质量挺不错的，咖啡浓度比国内高，只是从未溶入本地人生活，这跟越南很不同。不过一般针对游客的餐店都会有lao咖啡卖，强烈建议品尝！个人体验是，老挝咖啡更偏重咖啡清香，而越南咖啡则添加更多奶油香。 10、食品手信：建议作为老挝手信之一，去超市购买些LAO咖啡带回来，会受欢迎滴。LAO咖啡大品牌是DAO-HEUANG GROUP的DAO COFFEE（还有另一个本地品牌，貌似没有DAO做的大),除了超市有卖，它还有专卖店，三合一的大致有3种不同的口味，600g30支我们买的是2.7Wkip。还有咖啡粉、咖啡豆，按品质分价格不同。老挝产的一种本地酸角软糖，淡淡的酸甜味，挺不错，不管是自己吃还是送人都很好，只是包装简单了些，我们买的是一小包大约20几粒1.3Wkip。 11、学几个有用的老挝语： 1-能、2-耸、3-伞姆、4-西、5-哈、6-货格、7-结特、8-白特、9-告、10-西普、千-潘；中国-巴太金、谢谢-hope jai（Khawp jai）、再见-拉滚（但实际听到的发音像“老公”），最重要的一个必学词是老挝打招呼问好的sabaidee-萨拜迪。 The other‘s tips： a，老挝时间：（和越南泰国时间一样），都比中国北京时间晚一个小时，如中国的10：00am是老挝的9：00am。 b，重量单位：注意下，老挝的水果、蔬菜、肉类、糖等，都是轮公斤出售，价全是xxxkip一公斤。 c，信用卡，取现：基本无用，或者用也要加3%+手续费，ATM机是有的，有VISA的借记卡提现在这些地方还是方便。 d，购物支付货币：买东西看价的货币吧。价是美元，最好用美元支付，价是kip，就用kip支付。要不然给你折算一次，会贵一些的。老挝本地老币、美金、泰铢都可以流通使用，人民币之前也开始流通了，就是因为假币问又不行了。 e，衣着、习俗：老挝人不接受暴露太多的装束。忌讳用左手传递东西或食物、忌讳别人触摸他们的头。 f，寺庙参观：老挝的寺庙一般下午四点多就关门，中午休息，要去要赶早。另外Lao Guidebook 2010上说最好是早上拜访寺庙，清晨过来拍照，可以掌握最好的光线效果。老挝的寺院，不管大小，进入都要脱鞋子和帽子，短裤不能太短，露背露肩的衣服不能穿。 g，食：老挝以糯米饭为主，叫做 kao niao（发音），普通老挝人吃饭很简单的，少油盐，就1个凉拌菜，用手捏一小团糯米饭配着吃。要试试老挝的damahong，就是凉拌木瓜，老挝的木瓜不像国内的都熟透了，这里都是生的，脆脆的，和着辣椒、鱼露还有西红柿什么的，拌在一块儿吃，是地道的老挝菜。老挝的bin ba就是烤鱼也很不错，一定要试，不过有点小贵。注意老挝不临海，一般就是淡水鱼。不要忘了吃吃老挝的kao biao，一种类似中国粉的东西，一般5000kip一碗，糯米做的，很管饱，而且味道很不错。老挝有一种酸奶，味道很不错，上面原味的不含糖酸奶，地下室一层果酱，吃起来很有感觉。来老挝千万不要忘了买瓶Beer Lao来喝：地道唯一的老挝啤酒，在老挝的市场占有率极高，是老挝人的自豪。Beer Lao比国内的啤酒纯多了，酒精度数也要高一些，酒量不好的，千万要注意啊，不要以为只是一瓶啤酒而已。Wine Lao：类似葡萄酒的一种水果口味酒，深受女性喜欢。Lao Lao酒：一种当地自产的米酒威士忌，度数较高，据说后劲很大。各色水果shake是每餐必点的饮品，绝对的美味。夜市上小摊出售的shake最便宜，卫生条件也不错，5000KIP/杯，其他地方在6000-26000之间不等。Mix fruit shake、Papaya+Pineapple、Strewberry等口味都不错。老挝咖啡享誉盛名，在炎热的午后来一杯浓郁的冰黑咖啡也不失为一种享受，7000-12000KIP/杯。 h，老挝特色小吃：香蕉奶油口味的PANCAKE、小铝碗里烤的椰汁小饼、蒸红薯、法棍面包、放在小竹筒里面蒸熟的黏米饭、加入很多种类当地香料的清蒸河鱼、搭配鱼露汁的油炸时蔬饼…… i，市场还价：摸索到一些报价规律，供大家参考夜市里的小物件、特色商品、报价的7折是一般他提供的最低成交价，但5折大都可以成交，有人是来给自己小店采购的，因相对量较大，比如某种纸灯笼买20-30个，观察到3-3.5折是底价附近了!老挝背景资料：老挝慢生活：在中南半岛，有一句很有名的谚语：“越南人种田；柬埔寨人看着稻米成长；而老挝人连看都懒得看，只竖起耳朵，听着青翠的秧苗拔高成穗”（Vietnamese plant the rice；Cambodians watch it to grow；Laos listen it to grow.）。慢生活体现在老挝人身上，即是：Bo Pegniang （Please don’t rush 请不要着急），慢吞吞、闲散、安静、而且安宁，大多数人脸上都挂着和善的微笑，见到你会轻轻低低地问候一声“撒拜迪”。宗教深入生活：老挝全民信奉小乘佛教，有人聚居的地方就有寺庙，在城市里几乎走不了几步就会出现一处寺庙。老挝男性上至高官、下至平民百姓，一生之中都必须至少出家当一次和尚，每次一般3个月，少则3-5天，也有终身为僧不还俗的。寺庙对人们而言，是教育之所，是沿袭老挝文化之地。小乘佛教徒主要守持五戒，但不持素，只忌食“十肉”（即：人、象、虎、豹、狮、马、狗、蛇、猫、龟），日进二斋，过午不食。（注意，异性不得与僧侣有身体上的触碰。）附，大乘与小乘的区别——“乘” 为车辆的意思。大乘即大车辆，大牛车，普渡众生自度度他；小乘即小车辆，鹿车羊车，只能自度。教义上区别：小乘主张“我空法有” ；大乘主张 “我法皆空” 。实践方面的区别：小乘主张修持阿罗汉果，求得自我解脱，独善其身；大乘主张行菩萨道兼善天下，普度众生，最终成佛。目不同，修行内容方法也异：小乘修三学（戒、定、慧）八正道；大乘则兼修六波罗蜜（六度），即布施、持戒、忍辱、精进、禅定、智慧。湄公河：流经老挝全境，老挝语Menam Khon，柬埔寨语作MeKong（意“母亲”），越语作Song Tien Giang，中国境内称澜沧江（Lancang Jiang或Lan-ts'ang Chiang）。湄公河是东南亚的母亲河，总长约4,880公里（3,033哩），流域总面积：81.1万平方公里，是世界第六大河，亚洲第三长河，东南亚第一大河。发源于中国青海省，流经西藏自治区与云南省，此后成为缅甸与老挝之间，以及老挝与泰国之间的部分国际边界，还流经老挝、柬埔寨与越南，然后在胡志明市（西贡）南面注入南海。老挝首都万象与柬埔寨首都金边均在岸边。湄公河约3/4的流域面积在其下游流经的5国－－缅甸、老挝、泰国、柬埔寨与越南。最后写一段外话收尾。老挝旅游业发展很快，接触旅游的当地人，大都会用多种语言跟你搭讪。打招呼的词，英语、法语、日语、韩语、中国普通话...他们都会，连万象的外语培训公司里，中文也是频繁开班的语种之一。不过肯定是来自中国的背包客太少了，我们被直接招呼“O ha yo”的比例高达95%，虽然被认成了日本人郁闷，但好过那剩余5%被认成棒子，哈哈！然后当我们大声纠正“Chinese”的时候，100%会被反问是否来自HongKong，看来“香港是中国的”这个命已深入世界咯，吼吼。不过，我们还是会继续纠正“from ShangHai”喔，也有不少老挝人知道上海的，还不错！而且老挝人大多对中国人很好奇，搞旅游的那些人总是想从我们这里多学几个中文词呢。其实，在老挝做生意的湖南老乡浙江老乡遍布各处，他们常年生活在老挝，其中开中餐馆倒是不多，大部分开店做商品生意。到了老挝国都万象，虽然紧挨着泰国，小超市的食品大部分也是泰国货，但却几乎就变成中国人的天下了，我们看到大的就有水利公司、道桥公司、建筑公司、大宾馆...都竖着巨幅的中文牌识。老挝唯一那条贯通南北的13号公路，就主要是中国援建的，而13号公路从与中国接壤的磨丁开始，直达泰国廊开的这一段，属于“昆曼公路”的老挝段。从另一个高度来看，老挝对中国的战略意义可是很大啊。老挝的四邻顺时针分别是泰国、中国（云南）、越南和柬埔寨，前两个经济好的国家对它都有深刻影响。如今老挝旅游业飞速发展，不由得让人对它独特的原生态产生担忧，......唉，看看中国内地恶劣扰人的旅游业现状就够了。重要补充： 1）关于证。俺习惯把事情提前做好，所以行前就把证的事情搞妥了才出门，建议XDJM们尽量跟俺一样。喜欢随性的人肯定会不屑地会问了：Why？虽说游记上查到的信息，说老挝可以陆路落地的人更多，事实上，那只是一般情况。口岸的政策随时在变，与我们同车的帅哥就遭遇了惨烈的意外！我们过境那段时间说是不给落地了，然后不得不找了换汇的小妹，她们讲可以帮忙通关系，最后的结果是花了一千大洋才过了国门！！要知道，老挝目前证费200元，一般委托代理也不过300元。（老挝证目前只有在北京和昆明可以自己办。） 2）老挝入境卡到老挝入境的窗口，记得先问他们要入境卡！！自己填好再递进去盖章办手续。切记切记！！不然，他们不会主动递出空白卡来的，你就会被索要20RMB （or 2Wkip）才能被放过喔。 3）公路信息据穷游网刚回来发帖的mm说，打听到两个月后，昆明~老挝公路的老挝段要开始维修了，老挝人的效率是不清楚几时能完工的，提醒要去的人注意。关键是老挝段都是窄窄的山路，弯弯曲曲的路况真的不好，反正俺睡在车子最前面中间位子的下铺，也非得用脚抵着栏杆，才不至于被时时东摇西摆的大巴甩出床铺，唉，确实很颠！要是修起路来，路况更差、错车更困难，估计从昆明到琅勃拉邦可就远不止24h咯！ 4）夜行大巴因为老挝的车子大部分是棒子那儿来的二手车，所以大巴铺位改装得怪怪的。万象和巴色的来回，俺们都睡了双人的那种上铺（幸好同伴J-J同学也不胖，哈哈），订票时可以提要求的，比如要前面的上铺。下铺一般有拉帘子，不过要是跟陌生人挤一个铺还要拉帘子可真受不了啦......，后来知道，也有单铺大巴卖，价格无异。琅勃拉邦到万象的也是夜行巴士，不晓得是否也有两种大巴呢？看网上也有人说昆明到琅勃拉邦的大巴，买到的是上下都是双人的那种铺位，不过我们那趟车还是一排2x3个单铺的。单人铺很窄小的呢，连俺都觉得受不来，跟上海到青岛的“恐怖超载”夜行班车一样，呵呵，还是在北疆坐到的卧铺大巴宽敞啊（怀念ing，俺深爱着的北疆，咔咔）。另，在昆明~琅勃拉邦的夜行大巴上，可能会有小偷装成的客人，要特别小心随身贵重物品！这个小偷往往是半夜到达勐腊之前（临晨4点），开始在走道里匍匐翻包行窃，然后在勐腊下车，事实上，过了勐腊之后，大巴上就剩下五六光人了，包括一个日本独驴。 2010.享受老挝慢时光. 02（预告美图之一）唉，每次旅行回来，一想到要整理4千张海量照片，都是一个头十个大。~~估计哪天就真的欠债不还直接潜逃啦，嘻嘻......^_^不多说牢骚话咯，先上几张自己喜欢的预告美图吧。 Ps.全部原创图片啊，咔咔，D90还没摸熟，PP问多多，请大家批评指正。琅勃拉邦，Luang Prabang：在琅勃拉邦的花阴下，沉醉。` 大名在外的香通寺，它代表了琅勃拉邦的寺庙风格，与高棉和泰国的寺庙不同，寺顶一直垂至地面。主殿内壁全部是鎏金壁画，主殿后壁外墙上，则镶嵌着一棵令人过目不忘的生命之树！` ` 日落普西山远没有想象中的辉煌美妙，太阳哗啦一下子就掉到山后去咯。事实上，在普西山，还是看人间炊烟、天上晚霞来得棒。万容，VangVieng：一只沉醉在万荣喀斯特风景里的猫猫。南松河上，飘回来的是正爽得hight的皮划艇&tubing。远处跳水+畅饮+蹦迪中的鬼佬&近处光PP戏水的本地小P孩。著名的LP推荐的看景GH：elephant crossing......不过，个人认为还是在这里次次4.5Wkip/人的较丰盛自助早餐，一边看看美景是最合算的咯。万象，Vientiane：万象的湄公河日落......注意，对岸可是泰国的土地咯。荣登老挝国徽的图案：塔銮。被赋予国家主权象征的鎏金塔，金光灿灿的果然好气势啊！万象并没有大象，只找到这两只石头小象，蹲在法式老房子的外墙上，快乐地甩鼻子嬉戏着。老挝首都最拿得出手的大街景，号称“小香榭丽舍”大道，远处就是老挝的“凯旋门”。呵呵，这个视角看起来，跟模仿的原型还真有些相似啊。2010.享受老挝慢时光. 03（预告美图之二）特别喜欢四千美岛这个地方，为它拍了许多照片。选片好难，难以取舍，呵呵，只好再开一个新篇来预告它了，希望您不要嫌弃它的PP太多......四千岛之东德岛，Dong Det：（湄公河篇）（四千美岛）（黄昏） ` ` ` ([]

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，“明年我们去印度吧”，就这样提上了议程。在S姐的建议下，我们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，我们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，我们可以身在其中，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，让我们先来唱颂一次OM，shanti shanti shantihi （欧姆，香缇香缇香缇嘿）这是我们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....................................................

这次一反常规，在游记开始前先奉上功略，只因为我想鼓励那些对印度感兴趣的同学，如果喜欢，就上路吧。上路，其实没你想像中那么复杂。证篇办理印度证，最早只能在出发前一个月。只要准备好相应材料，印度证非常容易申请，一般在提交资料后五个工作日内便可领取证。送后，在上海印度证中心的网站上，可在线查询证受理的进度。审核完成，便可去证中心领取护照。在上海办理印度证需准备如下材料：1、证申请表一份。（在线填写https//www.vfs-india.com.cn/shanghai/chinese/tourist_appliCATionform.html，并打印）2、2张近期（50mm

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服务，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（我们的六段火车，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，我们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，预订了酒店的接机服务，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，我们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tripadvisor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，我们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tripadvisor上对该酒店的最新评价都不太好，说房间旧，不干净，服务也不好。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。房间外的阳台相连我们的房间，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。而且这家还是我们此行中最便宜的一家旅馆！推荐指数：★★★★★我们的房间小花园 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：这是我们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，估计我们到酒店都快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。等我们入住后，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 guest house：https//www.dreamheaven.co.in/index.html 邮址：info@dreamheaven.co.in2、Karohi Haveli： https//www.karohihaveli.com/tariff.htm 6、焦特浦尔Jodhpur：Jee Ri Haveli 价格：Rs.2000/晚（含早餐）有空调、有阳台、免费WIFI 住两晚预订方式：酒店网站https//www.jeerihaveli.com/index.php 邮件预订：info@jeerihaveli.com 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，亲自领我们进房间，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，但他的举动又让我们有点不快。我们临走时，他竟要求我们给他的员工付小费，我们虽没有拒绝，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，我们最初并不知晓，老板领我们进房间时，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，“洗澡前和我们说一下就行了！”无语。我洗澡前还要和你说吗？推荐指数：★★★☆☆我们的房间酒店的露台餐厅房间的阳台 7、杰伊瑟尔梅尔Jaisalmer——Hotel Jeet Villa 价格：Rs.2950+5.15%=3102/晚住一晚预订方式：www.book.com预订酒店网址：https//www.hoteljeetvilla.com/tariff.htm Email：hoteljeetvilla@hotmail.com 点评：这是我们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。清晨我们还未醒，工作人员在与我们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我们，呈现在我们眼前的英迪拉·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？”毕竟那时距离我们去朝鲜一个月，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，便同时预订了接机服务。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。他没有帮我们拿行李，一个人自顾自地快步走在前面。“他怎么不帮我们拿包呢？”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，出租车停在了我们预定的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，请他和我们一起去前台拿钱。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，领我们到了楼上的房间。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。小工去帮我们买矿泉水和打火机。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，把东西递给我们后，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，所以我们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！我们四人找了阳台上一个桌子坐下，他们让服务员帮忙去复印攻略，然后我们点餐说话聊天。在得知我们下午准备去红堡后，这对夫妇打算跟我们同行。于是，在印度的第一天，我们就多了一对旅伴。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我们四人孰视无睹，自顾自地开始用电钻在墙上钻洞。尖利的电钻声吵得我们讲话也听不清。去向餐厅服务人员提出抗议，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，反倒弄得我们不好靠近，生怕惊到它们。实际上，我们真是过虑了。在印度，没有动物会害怕人。对于初来乍到的我们，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，我们把脖子伸得老长，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我们这个方向慢慢驶来。是有什么庆祝活动吗？我们也跟着锣鼓声兴奋起来，可惜，车驶到靠近我们的一个三叉路口，一转弯，便在我们的视线中消失了。“快点出去玩吧！”此时的我们，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，让我们跟着他去寄存。于是，我们跟着他，又重新返回到二楼。他掏出钥匙，打开一间房门，把我们的驮包往行李架上一放，问我们房号，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，我们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。只是我们不能理解罢了。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，我们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，我们要了两辆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，司机示意我们，我们得走前面的地道，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我们面前。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 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([]
