Arrived in Lhasa
(Ix)
The train slowly came to a halt,
Pick up the luggage compartment out of the body is here to feel cold climate,
Silk is also a face to the cold, riding in this land, and slowly the feelings of a different feeling,
We carry luggage, stepped out of the railway station, found a bus stop on the bus ride to the urban areas,
Lhasa bus tickets, each as long as a piece of money.
We are in the car to ask the way the process of awareness of a Tibetan,
We called her aunt, she has invited us to her house accommodation,
This really let us flattered
In a strange environment to a stranger's home accommodation,
Although that may be closer to the lives of local people,
But feel a little bit wrong, but also a little stimulation and worry
Think about it more carefully, it should be no problem now, it promised to her, this evening went to her home stay.
Now back, then be worried about our country may have been influenced by the effects of too much negative news,
Harm I have often used standards of law and order in our country as a public standard.
Under the bus, we walked the road, and finally to the aunt's home,
To go into when I was silly swap,
Aunt's house that only one of the toilets did not have showers,
There is no toilet lights, no more buckets of water,
Around even a decent vanity nor to how to use it?
Basically, this is only one toilet, a room and a corridor Minshuku only
See this situation, several of our people to look each, and then we all reported to smile,
How can we do? Not only to them, you Yasunosuke!
Aunt very warm hospitality we have been told us to sit, and then she boiled water it, it points sesame oil,
Paving the way sub-Yes, moving blankets you, who are too busy, that I have suffered a little bit embarrassed.
In this way the first night in Lhasa, we just wash brush teeth on the rest of the month.
The next morning I woke up feeling a little headache,
St also felt unwell while, there are slight nausea,
We get to eat in Lanzhou salidroside bought to prevent the reaction to high altitudes,
But this salidroside are the traditional Chinese medicine
Tibet must begin taking a few days ago, which will be effective.
However, now there is no matter so much to eat first.
Aunt also prepared for our breakfast, read those breakfast,
Among them, similar to the hupehensis teh tarik,
Like the roti canai pancake
Seemingly peanut paste food,
A sprinkle of sugar on top of the cucumber slices
I do not know what those who only get to eat sweet, quite delicious.
Fill the post, first of all, we ask the aunt to take us to the Potala Palace,
Because I heard there are restrictions on the number of the Potala Palace, a day to allow only about two thousand people visit
Therefore, we must go the details of interrogation.
The first walk in the morning in Lhasa,
The road is full of vehicles, buses, tricycles, bicycles,
On both sides of the street shops, souvenir shops, clothing stores, compared Museum, etc.
The majority of these boutique attired Or trend buy it
Lhasa feel it does not think so mysterious,
TV and books, it seems mysterious Lhasa reality does not exist.
To the Potala Palace, saw a large group of Tibetans in the palace for five body worship,
Some are turning around the Potala Palace, and tourists are constantly making phase.
We come to the counter asked to know the day after the votes have been sold out,
We have to queue up the next morning went to get numbers,
And then the third day according to the number before buying into the visit.
Wow, really is the trouble yo.
Since can not buy votes, we have decided to solve the accommodation problem,
Because long-term stay is no way to aunt's home, no water of life, I can not customary.
Said goodbye to the aunt, relying on maps and ask for directions, we went to a youth hostel Kangsang Puncog,
Originally, last night we should come to Puncog only halfway encountered aunt, went to her house to try the so-called Minshuku,
But try a night on the stretch of white, ha ha.
Here's a bed 30rmb, we took four of the eight human beds.
Set the bed, we went to the opposite of a Taiwan-style restaurants,
Point of the so-called Chatham milk, some water-binder, such as to when the lunch,
Taiwan came to Tibet to eat vegetables? Ha ha.
Fill the post, we intend to go to A, A is a contact us prior to the travel agents,
Because we intend to Lhasa section of the itinerary of which have bee Chu, Nam Co, Gyangze, sheep lakes, glaciers, etc.
So looking for the next few days, he arranged the trip.
Come a long come to Beijing East Road, East initiatives, and the A meeting,
Now he was informed that there are groups all the way from Lhasa to sit cross-country car go back to Xining, Qinghai-Tibet Highway,
From the Nam Co, Nagqu, had Tanggula, Hoh Xil, Golmud, Qinghai Lake to Xining, a total of five days,
The way in the Nam Co, Nagqu, Golmud, Qinghai lake, such as accommodation.
Overall, this entire journey with the same train line, because beside the Qinghai-Tibet Highway is the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, the
The only difference is that a train, only to see inside,
Another car, you can go all the way, stopping along the way,
In Tanggula can slowly feeling under the reaction to high altitudes,
In the Hoh Xil Tibetan antelope can get off to find traces, etc.
Tibet train, traveling on buses out of possession, it sounds good, why is a different experience!
After listening, we have a few people on this trip have a lot of interest,
But a person has the price rmb 2000 views
And the need for five days, we still can not decide when to leave,
May be able to match the time,
Arrangements must therefore be careful about.
As for Everest trip, we also face some problems
A said that this year a sensitive matter, the results of the Government of the new regulations,
Those who go to Everest to the Chinese people, had to do a border card
The foreigners do, it is necessary to Tibet letter, travel card, it is also necessary with a tour guide,
However, tour guides and drivers are not the same person.
I hear these regulations have a big head, because we were only a few letter to Tibet,
If you want to do those additional documents, also requested the tour guide, then
4000rmb trip would have on the budget is insufficient,
At least have to add it 2000rmb-3000rmb.
Just worry about the time, A suggestion that, in fact, we can still do not have documents,
That is to find a reliable driver secretly set us to quietly on the back of Mount Qomolangma,
As long as we have been willing to take a half on the road to stop the risk of containing it.
Suddenly ran out of so many problems, we are also less than all of a sudden conclusion
A temporary had entrusted with his relationship to help us arrange四天游Everest,
Then we find in their own circumstances to see if there is no other way to go to Everest,
As for the trip to Xining, and so we go back to square wallet
And look at the date, when are we going to look at to go to Beijing,
And then told him that our decision.
Said goodbye to the A, the original has been the evening, we even discussed the 23 hours?
Since the night, everyone looked for an arbitrary Museum dinner snacks,
Incidentally, to discuss our next trip.
The way to the restaurant, we have been asked a number of tourist homes,
Also try to contact the different drivers, who would be willing to see if there is illegal on Everest,
But most of the replies were told us to go through the process of
They said that because of the recent law enforcement are too strict, and no one should take their lives at risk
The result of a driver can not be found, seems we have no alternative but to hope that on the A body has been.
Dinner, we decided to leave Lhasa on the 18th to Beijing
Since determines the date of departure, it should arrange a trip on the easier, and
But there is also not sure whether to buy a return train ticket to Lhasa to Beijing,
Because if our trip to take place in Xining, we have to help care A Xining to Beijing to buy votes.
Back to the aunt, and took luggage go Puncog, we began to count money,
The results we found that we not enough money to pay visit to Xining,
But also want to give up a bit Unfortunately, after all, probably only once.
Would you want to, I was thinking about you by credit card, or ask their friends and other ways to send money啦,
But can not think of a conclusion to really count the more confused the more, huh, huh.
Later all not to think about, and had no choice but to take one step at
Look at things again so decided.
The results of Lhasa on the first day to run around in such journeys spent.
