黄文星6月20日，6点多起来了，7点50多准时出发，这次出发多了一个用诚信交易和汗水得来的相机，还有一顶帐篷，黄，邱老板还多给了我237元，算赞助吧，恩，记下了，以后回还的。 原来郭滴人的故乡是龙岩啊。拍下 留念一路往市区走 背着50斤的行李，走了半小时 才走市区累的是 汗如雨下 。一直走。。。越走越觉得不对劲，走道了龙岩学院发短信请朋友帮忙才纠正路线 还是第一次走错路没地图真不妨便 此时已12点了 趁此时吃个饭 牛肉米粉 4元 味道还不错 往回走刚走一会一群人 把我拉了过去 东拉西扯 聊了好一会 还跟我合影呵呵 因为怕我再走错路 其中一个 开摩托车 送了我一段 可能是在龙岩这些日子养胖了 走出市区不远脚就起了两个大泡 眼前一亮嘿 前面有辆卡车停在那司机吴师傅很爽快 一听说我是旅行家 便让我 上车了 吴师傅有个坏习惯：他妈的：老是挂在嘴边当然 我知道，他没有恶意 到了永靖金山镇时 他到家了 我也再次 一个人走走了不到一公里前面也有一辆同样的货车 我上前一问 呵呵 真爽快 马上就答应了 真是 出发意料百发百中 。巧的是这位司机也姓吴，，听小吴师傅说万利达的老板 就是他们金山人荣幸 。到了漳州市区他要拐弯了，我也就下了，6点多了我找了 个公园就打起了 帐篷。在公园玩的大姐 但到我旗子后 叫住我 说：我刚吃过饭，这还有一个鸡蛋，给你。我心想 我又不是乞丐说给就给啊。接着她又说：你90元走遍中国挺不容易的的，能省就省吧 ，这还差不多 就接受了 。6月21日，好久没游泳了，早上起来后，到漳州的九龙江去游了半小时，感觉很轻松到了公路后，拦到了一辆小车，带我到了前往厦门的路口，走了不久，有揽到了一辆拖拉机 开拖拉机的连大叔告诉我连战和他是一个村的。到离厦门50公里的地方我下了车，继续往前走 可能我的打扮太拉风了，有一辆军车也挺下来 看个清楚。漳州的大桥我足足走了半小时，弄的全身是灰。走过大桥后不久快到角美镇时开着摩托车的大叔问我要不要手机 我随口说了下买不起，我灵机一动，不烦试试让他带我一段，于是就问他，他说：你坐公交车嘛，我就在这： 我说我没钱坐车，他又问：你是哪里人啊？ “我是湖南人，”喔答道。说到此处，他马上拿了5元钱给我说：“你去坐车吧”真的很意外！他有送了我一段到前面，这位何大叔说：“我没带钱，要不然肯定会多给你一些的" 再次感谢何大叔。中午了，我到了一个快餐店，，5元钱给我抄了很大一碗面，当老板娘郭阿姨，听完我的故事后连连感叹，又给我舀了碗汤，，走时，还给了我很多包子，让我留着晚上吃 ，真的很谢谢郭阿姨。出来走了一会，我栏下了一辆小车，小车司机吴生，因为不去哪里，给了我10元钱 让我坐车去，因为他有事没来得及和他合影 遗憾，停在路边的一辆小车，向我招手，让我过去，聊了会，他去泉州，顺路，送我到了海沧海边，车主王老板说能跟我坐在一起他感觉很荣耀。呵呵我有一个人走过了海沧大桥登上了 厦门岛，厦门的美女真的漂亮啊！随便找个做老婆，都终身无憾了，我在一个码头的草的上，打起了帐篷。与大海为伴共度一宿。走遍中国——泉州，闽台缘6月22日，海边就是舒服，昨晚睡得很好，9点出发了，前面有几个外国人，我故意把旗子负举得很高，让他看看中国人得厉害，可他们并没什么反应，可能还不认识汉字吧，失望；厦门繁华，但很整洁，既然到了旅游城市，我就看看市民的素质怎么样吧，于是，上了公交车，第一次见到两层的公交车，厦门不愧为文明城市，我好几次想让坐都被抢在前头，气死我了因为下着大雨角也肿了。为了不辜负昨天在娇媚给我钱的两个好心人的期望，我要坐车到泉州去。现在才知道原来坐车也是一种享受！到了泉州已是12点了，听说附近有个闽台博物馆，很大，很不错，我也就马不停蹄的找了过去。博物馆里有很多台湾，福建以前的照片和场景，文化。我晃来晃去，一直到3点多才记起来还没吃饭，博物馆大堂内有一副用爆破做成的版画，很醒目。很有艺术感。泉州个我的第一映像，很文化，很适居，很和谐回复 湍河人 的帖子我没说只用90元而是我出发时 只带了90元，麻烦你弄清楚6月23日，今天想多睡会，11点了才出发，泉州的街道大都差不多，走得我都迷路了。后来，走到客运中心附近的一个快餐店，吃完饭后，老板老太太知道了我的故事后，也坚决不收我的钱。这位老太太很善良，很慈祥。一直到下午6点多才到达崇武，崇武古城门口是个夜市广场，非常热闹，什么都有卖。在崇武海边的草地上，我又搭起了帐篷。6月24日，昨晚海风非常猛烈，我的旗子唰唰的响，以前在深圳，厦门也都见过海，可那些都是些小海湾，哪有崇武的海这么大，一眼望不到尽头，今早进崇武古城夜市偷偷的溜进去的，崇武因为有了惠女的故事所以多了很多浪漫色彩。戚继光的雕像非常大。 惠安走出惠安县城时，已是12点了，拦了一个多小时都没有拦到车，最后只好坐车算了，15元到莆田，但在车上，司机对我的故事很感兴趣，就直接送我到福清了，福清人口非常多，不过城中的小河，挺漂亮的，特别是在黄昏时分。河中间有个寺庙有很多人在里面看戏，我看了一会，不知道在唱什么。唱了一小段时，我到后台，去跟戏剧演员，合影去。戏剧演员也对我竖起大拇指，说了不起！今天下午在公园休息时碰到一个明天会去永泰玩的叶先生，我明天可以搭他的顺风车去永泰。回复 湍河人 的帖子钱和物我都不是白吃白要的，我都记下了联系方式，以后会还的 回复 湍河人 的帖子多谢你的提议，以后不会接受别人的施舍走遍中国——森林人家，献歌一路上有你6月24日，早上如约和叶先生在公园会和后，和他的朋友一起共五辆车，一同前往永泰方向，本来想在永泰的一个路口下车的，因为太累我竟在车上睡着了，就随着他们一起来到了永泰与蒲天交界的大洋镇森林人家，据说这是一个红色革命景区，有点类似于农家乐，到了之后，心想，来都来了那我也看看吧。([]

这个大厅有点黑。20121012，昆明-加德满都。入境。 队伍很长，需要足够的耐心等待。20121012，昆明-加德满都。入境。 1436（相机时间均使用北京时间），排队一个小时后，终于办妥手续。20121012，昆明-加德满都。出港。 下楼，提取行李。就俩字，乱，差。 20121012，昆明-加德满都。进城。一出机场大门，就看到一块颠倒高举的大牌子，“阿土”。客栈派车来接客了，呵呵。当然，是有偿服务。车挺大，拉上一行六人，进城了~~~这个是生番童鞋，在新加坡工作。这次特地回来走EBC。遗憾的是……第一个下山的，就是他。 20121012，昆明-加德满都。进城。这次徒步的人员都是网络召集，约定12日加都集合。22人徒步EBC，想起来，比走EBC还要恐怖。进城途中，自拍一张。发布的原因，是想表明，偶曾经也有过很白净的小手。20121012，昆明-加德满都。进城。不扯了，还是跟随我的镜头一起进城吧。看看尼泊尔的首都。20121012，昆明-加德满都。进城。这不是去乡下，这是加都城区。([]

各位朋友：因为论坛不断改版，原来的照片都不显示了，本来想重新上传，可原来每层楼有多张照片，现在每层楼只允许上传三张，所以没办法补足。从下一页开始，已经看不到照片。为了让喜欢我游记的朋友能够继续欣赏，我已经把原帖压缩成压缩文件上传到百度网盘中，只要下载后解压缩就可以在自己的电脑上慢慢欣赏。下载地址是：https//pan.baidu.com/s/1VT30tecjywXoKvYWHa0tag提取码：YNYJ 越南，如同一个远离尘嚣、背负巨大历史创痛的妇人，表情宁静贤淑，眉梢眼角流淌着淡淡的忧伤，举手投足间，却又不失曾经沧海的风情。越南是看风景的天堂，在它长长的“S”形国土上，随着纬度的变化，历历呈现迥然各异的个性与风韵。这里的人民质朴热情，这里的物产丰饶，曾经饱经战火的越南以其独到而内敛的魅力，重又脱胎换骨，成为今天的传奇。 ——8264tigerson-虎崽 一直想去越南看看，首先是因为我们这个年龄的人或许都有着某种难以言说的越南情结：我出生时，越南刚刚赶走了法国殖民者，我刚刚懂事，美国就发动了全面的侵越战争，在我最初的记忆中：当时的越南领导人胡志明和中国领导人毛-泽-东、周恩来就是铁哥们，而当时两个国家的关系那是比铁哥们还要铁。 按照毛-泽-东***的指示：七亿中国人民是越南人民的坚强后盾，辽阔的中国领土是越南人民的可靠后方。援越抗美成为中国人民政治生活中的重要事情。报纸上、电台中天天充斥着这个国家的战争消息。我们每个人都仿佛感受到，就是我们自己的亲生兄弟姐妹在那一片狭长的国土上与侵略者在进行着殊死搏斗。中国人民宁可自己饿着肚子也要支援越南人民的抗美斗争。 后来，亲如兄弟的胡志明、周恩来、毛-泽-东先后去世，在此期间，美国撤出了越南，中美关系开始正常化，越南统一……，没过几年，中越交恶，两个昔日亲如兄弟的**国家开始刀戎相见。一场有限战争断断续续打了十年。然后不打了，又开始和好，边关重新开放，互市贸易，边境清雷，很多中国人开始越过友谊关去探访那个不知道应当看成是朋友还是敌人的国家，看看这个长期关注的国家在经历百年战火后变成了什么样子——这些人中就有我的哥哥。 我哥哥上世纪90年代曾经两次去越南，他多次和我谈及在越南的所见所闻：下龙湾美丽的风光；河内漂亮的法国建筑，柔弱似水、坚韧如钢的越南姑娘，和中越两国两千年来剪不断，理还乱的复杂关系。 所有这些，都让我对这个邻国一直保持浓厚的兴趣。我早就想找机会踏上这一方国土，去亲眼看一看这个谜一样的国家。但一直到今年，这个愿望才得以实现。 今年的十一长假前后，我在越南呆了18天，从北到南，又从南到北，在下龙湾、顺化、会安、芽庄、大呖、美奈、西贡和河内都做了停留，亲身感受了这个经历了上世纪最长期最残酷战火硝烟的国家的浴火重生，亲自体验了那些历尽劫难后的人民的坚韧、善良和新生的年轻一代的美丽与热情，亲眼目睹了那一方热土上遍及城乡的美丽建筑和热带风情。所有这一切。都给我留下了极其深刻的印象。 这次出国旅游也颇有些小小的波折，一开始证日期就出了问，进入越南后在下龙湾就被宰了一刀，后来在去芽庄的车上和在西贡又两次被偷——真是有些祸不单行。不过我此行总体还是比较幸运：不仅一路上得到了许多人的热情帮助，而且老天爷也十分关照：在18天里，在尚在雨季的越南，我既没有遭受南亚的酷热，也几乎没有遭到恶劣的风雨天气，特别幸运的是在越南中部，我与在菲律宾、越南和老挝造成数百人死亡的强台风“凯萨娜”擦肩而过，幸运地躲过了一劫。 下面就把此次的经历向大家关心我的朋友们和广大驴友作详细汇报。 有位网名“流浪笨猪”的网友说到：一直很欣赏“读万卷书，行万里路”这句话，个人觉得行万里路更重要一些。如果你总在温暖的家里死读书，怎么能想像的出“野云万里无城郭，雨雪纷纷连大漠”是什么样子；“明月松间照，清泉石上流”是什么意境；“瀚海阑干百丈冰，愁云惨淡万里凝”是个什么景象。……要了解当地的民生和风土人情，就必须深入到民间去，在酒店和高级饭店里是看不见的。当然，有了丰富的知识储备，在旅行当中就是如虎添翼了。 对于“流浪笨猪”的观点，我相当赞成。过去，我曾经喜欢“读万卷书”，如今更喜欢“行万里路”。我特别喜欢那种在路上的感觉。近年来，我每年都要出一趟远门去旅游，今年，我把自己的远行目定在了越南。 8月初，我把自己的护照邮给在南宁的朋友小梁，请他在越南驻南宁领事馆替我办30天的旅游证。时间是从9月21日到10月20日。 现在，办越南的旅游证很方便，北京的越南大使馆和其驻广州和南宁的领事馆都可以办理。他们甚至为外地人提供了一种十分方便的服务，只要在网上下载相关表格填好，将表格、照片和有效期6个月以上的护照及相关费用寄过去，他们就可以在几个工作日后将好的护照通过快递邮寄给你。按说，有了这种服务，根本没必要再麻烦朋友。 可是，我从网友的经历中了解到：越南人办事经常马马虎虎，错日期、忘了盖章的事情时有发生，尽管这类事情的发生似乎是难以置信，但确实有人遇到了这样匪夷所思的事情。我不想自己摊上这样的倒楣事而耽误行程，所以宁可麻烦朋友，以求万一有问，能及时补救。好在我去越南会路过南宁，可以去朋友那里取好的护照。 尽管这种做法只是为了预防万一，这个万一还真的落到了我的头上。月底的时候，朋友来电话，跟我说，证下来了，但日期却成了9月1日到9月底，问我是否能提前出发？我告诉他，不行，我只能按原计划9月22日入境，9月底我不可能离开越南，必须改。打完电话，我心里暗骂越南领事馆办证的那个混蛋：不知道他那天吃错了哪味药，我证表上用黑体字打的那么清晰的日期他竟然能够看错。虽然朋友后来告诉我他找领事馆重新做了证。我还是很憋气，去越南一开始就出师不利，开门不顺。 虽然过去对越南多少有一些了解，可对于旅行来说，我的那一点点了解还仅仅是个皮毛。为了准备好这次的越南旅行，我认真看了许多网友的游记和网上的资料，突击学了几句越南话，还专门买了中国旅游出版社出版的《走遍全球》丛书中的《越南》。用过之后，我觉得这是一本很不错的旅游参考书，可算是一本背包族的旅行宝典，里面的内容很全面很详细又实用，不仅有对越南各旅游城市的景点介绍、旅游地图，还有不同档次的旅馆和美食及购物介绍。非常方便。 在经过了三个月的酝酿之后，9月18日，我踏上了前往越南的旅程。9月18日 沈阳出发，坐最便宜的车去济南 我的每一次旅行几乎都是从一张火车票开始的。我喜欢坐火车旅行，因为飞机虽然快捷方便，但那种点对点的空中飞跃总让我感到似乎缺少了某些环节。坐火车旅行可以让你更真实地感受，你的旅程是怎样一点点延伸，从你自己的城市最终到达目的地的。 我一向认为，旅游的魅力，不仅仅是体现在那些旅游地的风光景物中，更包含在整个过程的所有体验中，只要你有兴趣关注，你会发现很多有趣的事情。 18日晚上下班后，我回到家里，吃过晚饭，背起早已准备好的大包去沈阳北站。我要乘坐19点42分的火车先去济南，这趟车是从延吉开往青岛的1256次列车，因为在沈阳只是路过，所以没有买到卧铺票，其实这趟车在沈阳也不是没有卧铺，只是都让票贩子从后门倒走了。 一上车，好家伙，人山人海。车门口挤都挤不上去。看来大家都喜欢坐便宜车。 好不容易上了车，等开了车，我才开始一点点向车厢中间自己的座位移动，因为人太多，过道都被大包小包塞的满满的，移动每一步都十分费劲。好半天，我才移动到自己的57号座位坐下来。 原来上车前我还想，等上车后如果可能可以补一张卧铺票，这下子连动都不能动，想坐卧铺，看来根本没有希望了。没有卧铺，那就坐硬座，好在还有座号。坐一宿硬座也没什么了不起。我喜欢这种有刺激性的节目。过去读研究生时，因为很难买到卧铺，所以从沈阳和哈尔滨之间往返我总是乘坐硬板，有时候连座位都没有，不也是都挺过来了。还记得有一次从沈阳回哈尔滨，因为买的是无座票，人又很多，上车后挤在车厢里，动都不能动，脚下连两只脚都放不下，常常只能金鸡独立地一条腿着地，刚好因为急于上车，憋了一泡尿，原来想上车后再去厕所，这下子也甭想了。就这样一直站了近5个小时，到了长春，下了许多人，车厢才松快下来，赶快找个座坐下来，开车后又急忙去了趟厕所，一切方才OK。和那时比，现在有座坐，已经很不错了。 虽然现在年龄大了，和年轻时比不了，可偶尔熬夜坐一次硬板，我就觉得自己还像当年一样年轻和充满活力。 这趟车是沈阳到济南最便宜的一趟火车，硬座只要68元。省下钱正好到济南买烧鸡。 对面的一个穿白衣服的小女孩儿，是沈阳人，现在在山东大学读研究生，她毕业后工作了一年，然后又去读的研究生。关于毕业后去向，从工作自身考虑，她希望毕业留校当老师，而且山东大学本身也是很不错的的大学。可她不喜欢济南，觉得没有沈阳好，作为父母的独生女儿，她父母也希望她回沈阳工作。所以她很矛盾。这孩子长的娇小玲珑，很有亲和力，沟通能力很强，不一会儿就和同座的另外两个女孩子打得火热。 坐在白衣女孩旁边的是一个穿蓝衣服的小女孩儿，她也很有意思，其经历富有传奇色彩。她本来小学初中学习都很好，一直是班干部，还当过学习委员，可上初中时，迷上了乐器，再也不愿意读书，后来学拉二胡。初中没毕业十六七岁就下了海，跟着草台班子四处演出，在草台班子里，迷上了一个比她大7岁的吹萨克斯管的小帅哥，两个人开始谈恋爱，一谈就是6年，后来准备结婚。两个人经过多年打拼，很攒了一些钱，买了一套新房子，本来还准备买一辆汽车，可今年年初家在铁岭农村的老婆婆遇上了车祸，受了伤，她和男友回铁岭照顾受伤的婆婆，拿了很多钱给老婆婆治疗，老婆婆身体恢复后，他们俩又拿钱出来帮老婆婆翻盖了新房，这样孝顺懂事的儿媳妇真的是很难得，周围邻居们都夸老婆婆有福，老婆婆也非常得意。 现在是一切安排就绪，两个人方才离开铁岭。这女孩子年龄刚刚二十三岁，是典型的80后，看着她那样成熟，那样自信，那样孝顺，年纪轻轻就已经打拼出自己的一方事业天地和生存空间，我真是感到由衷地敬佩。联想到许许多多她的同龄人和一些年龄大她几岁的80后还在读书，还在为工作苦恼，还在靠老啃老，我真是感慨系之。 这女孩儿和我说，她的亲属中的哥哥姐姐们学习都很好，很多人都上了大学，春节回家时听他们讲述大学里丰富多彩的学习生活，她有时真的很羡慕。我和她说，其实真正值得羡慕的是她自己，能在这个年龄就自强自立，有如此丰富的人生阅历，这是更重要更宝贵的。23岁的孩子已经成熟自立，而她的同龄人还在依赖父母，这就是差距。人总是对没得到的东西更向往，其实，你向往的东西不一定是你真正需要的东西。 在她旁边穿豹皮花衣服的女孩儿是个90后，只有十七八岁，却长得人高马大。她打扮的有些轻浮，穿着超短裙，透明黑丝袜，带了很多假首饰，每个指甲都做了彩绘，一头染黄的的头发她说是花300多元一绺绺接起来的，初一看像个风尘女郎。不过一开口说话还是显露出一个十几岁女孩的单纯天真。 她家本来是甘肃那边，现在在青岛读书，是青岛一所大学的大二学生，人家给他介绍了一个在沈阳当兵的男朋友，这次是千里迢迢来会情郎。虽然甘肃是个贫困地区，可她家的情况似乎不错，所以这个女孩儿属于现在所说的那种”败家一族”，很善于花钱败家。和她同座的那个立事的女孩儿正好是相反的类型。不过听她的谈唠，这女孩儿人很善良，品质也不错。她身边的朋友都不看好他和沈阳当兵的这一段恋情，她却很认真。这次去看男朋友，彼此都很满意，临别时，男孩儿给她买了一大堆吃的东西，还把她送到车上。谈起对爱情的态度，与现在90后对很多事情不以为然的态度相反，她把爱情和承诺看得很重，表示既然有缘分到了一起，无论有什么困难坎坷和磨难都应当忠贞不渝，这种态度让我对这个看起来很轻浮的小女孩儿不由得刮目相看。9月19日 济南一日游 上午10点，火车顺利到达济南东站。济南正在下牛毛细雨。 在济南东站，我顺利地买到了当天晚上从青岛开来直达南宁的1336次的卧铺票。 车票到手，心里踏实。 现在是上午10点20分，火车晚上10点21分开，我在济南可以停留12个小时。 济南这个城市我在1980年暑期来过，那一次是去南京参加暑期培训班，路过济南市，我中途下车，匆匆在这个著名的泉城游览了一番，先后去了千佛山、大明湖和趵突泉。本来还想去博物馆看看，但那天是星期天，博物馆不开馆，就没去成。 这次来到泉城，第一站就是去山东省博物馆。 乘公共汽车来到博物馆，领了张票，正好11点，我要存包，博物馆的工作人员说中午他们休息，没人看包。所以我只好背着大包游览。 省博内容不是很多，展示方式也很单一，很令人失望。 博物馆本来应当是最吸引人的地方，可很奇怪，中国的很多省级博物馆——包括我们辽宁的博物馆，让人看起来都是兴味索然。 没办法，商品社会，人们更关注那些可以创利的地方，文化建设这玩意儿，不当吃，不当喝，光投入，不产出，没有人有兴趣大规模投入和建设。 但对一个民族，一个国家，文化的影响其实是最为深远，最为悠久的东西。不知道我们的城市管理者，什么时候才能有精力和兴趣在这些方面花一点心思，多一点投入。 看完了博物馆，在路边买了几个馒头，一面吃，一面看街景。 改革开放和经济发展给城市建设注入了活力，一座座高楼大厦拔地而起，所有省会城市大楼都是鳞次栉比，一个比一个高大宏伟，一个比一个豪华奢侈。 转了一会儿，我走进一个小巷里寻找家庭旅馆，虽然我今天不在济南停留，但昨天在车上没休息好，今天得找个钟点房休息一下。 济南的家庭旅馆很怪，条件很一般，却每晚要30元钱，休息一下要20元，无论如何不降价，走了几家都是如此，我也没兴趣再理论，在一家睡了两个小时，感觉好多了。 然后，把背包寄存到旅馆，出来继续逛泉城。 从旅馆的小巷出来就是泉城广场，泉城广场被称为济南市的“城市客厅”。很大很气派也很漂亮，据说是当年在山东任省委书记的吴官正倡导修建的。 不过我此时不想逛广场，我准备晚上再来这里慢慢观赏。 我感兴趣的是附近的舜井，这是泉城著名的七十二泉中的一个，据说很有点传奇色彩。 舜井所在的舜井街在泉城广场的东面，我来到广场的东侧，这里有一个大型的文化长廊，长廊内设有大舜、管仲、孔丘、孙武、墨翟、孟轲、诸葛亮、王羲之、贾思勰、李清照、戚继光、蒲松龄等12位山东名人的塑像。 齐鲁大地是中华文明昌盛之地，山东有这些文化名人撑腰，底气当然壮的很。 跨过广场东侧老城护城河上的一座漂亮的小桥，找到了舜井街，这里已经是一片瓦砾。在大楼环绕的一大片瓦砾中，我看到了古舜井和孤零零立在一边的舜井碑。 舜井有一个古老的传说：据古籍记载，大舜幼年时丧母，后母对他十分不好，自己生了儿子后就老想害死他。一次，后母和这个弟弟骗大舜到井下去淘井，然后落井下石，大舜幸得井下溶洞逃出，也因此发掘出一处甘泉，从此人称此井为舜井。 历史上舜井名气很大，曾列为金、明、清三代七十二名泉。有欧阳修作《舜泉诗》，苏轼书写立碑。曾巩赞曰：“山麓归耕谜故垄，井干余汲见飞泉。清涵广陌能成雨，冷侵平湖别有天。南狩一时成往事，重华千古似当年。更应此水无休歇，余泽人间世世传。” 舜井的井口一直挂着一条铁链，寓意“舜井锁蛟”。关于“舜井锁蛟”，也有一段古老传说。 相传大舜时代东海有一条“黑蛟”，名叫巫支祁。它朝思慕想要当天下首领，多次找舜提出要求被舜严厉拒绝。舜选大禹为首领。巫支祁怀恨在心，要报复舜，除掉禹。舜去世后，巫支祁全力以禹为敌。他令东海鱼鳖一起出动发大水，淹没村庄、淹没历山。大禹带领百姓日夜治水，曾三过家门而不入。他把无家可归的百姓转移到泰山、兴隆山、龙洞山上。大禹怀揣照妖镜，身带定海针，手挽降魔铁索，乘木伐在风浪中与巫支祁搏斗，他抛出降魔铁索，终于降伏了巫支祁，他把巫支祁锁在舜井里。巫支祁不甘心，瞪着两只怪眼问：“什么时候放我出来？”禹说：“等到铁树开花。” 过了若干年代，南山有一壮汉，砍了一担柴，挑到济南来卖，顺便到舜井看“黑蛟”。他不等放下柴担，就急忙往井里瞅，哪知这一瞅坏事了，猛听得“轰隆隆”、“哗啦啦”一阵响，一条“大黑蛟”从井里飞出，摇头摆尾直向东海飞去。 巫支祁怎么会跑呢？原来这个壮汉挑柴的扁担两头包着铁皮，砍的柴上，不光带有青青的叶子，还带着各种颜色的鲜花，巫支祁一看，认为是“铁树开花了”便挣断铁索飞出井外，逃回了东海。从此人们只看见舜井里有条铁索，却再也看不见“黑蛟”的踪影。 看过舜井，走出这片动迁场地。场地北面，就是省人大，著名的珍珠泉就在省人大院内。 我上次来济南，因为珍珠泉正在疏浚，没有看到，这次终于看到了。 这是一片很大的湖面，里面有很多锦鲤在游弋。岸边垂柳亭榭，确实很漂亮。可珍珠泉水汩汩涌出，气泡似珍珠的景象却没有看到。珍珠泉——已经名不副实。不过总算看到了。 从后门出省人大，转入曲水亭街，这是济南老城的著名古街。 老城街道自有其古色古韵，不过显得荒落破败。这些电线更煞风景。 拐角处有一个小摊，写着“济南名吃：欧阳油xuan”，看起来似乎不错，其实就是油饼，但做法有些特殊，以油和面，拉成条，裹入韭菜馅，团成剂子，擀成饼，先煎后烤。出炉后焦黄酥脆，香气扑鼻。 不过我现在不太饿，就继续前行。 小街尽头，就是泉城名胜大明湖，这里我30年前第一次来济南时游历过，“四面荷花三面柳，一城山色半城湖”的景象为我留下的印象颇深。 今天时间有限，我顾不上进去重游，就返身来到济南的小吃一条街——芙蓉街。 首先映入眼帘的是文庙，正在大规模重修。 芙蓉街因芙蓉泉而得名。济南网友风铃草这样介绍这条街和这个泉： 城中有条市井味道浓浓的老街,似乎让人能触摸到城市温厚的脉搏。行走于芙蓉街，便有种回归的温馨。即使我没有生于斯长于斯，但置其中，我这个“移民”同样感受到古朴的市井滋味所散发出的温情与生机。 芙蓉街是济南惟一一条明末清初时期形成的古商业街，它因街内有一芙蓉泉而得名。老街傍着繁华的泉城路，每每看了泉（街北有王府池子、大明湖；西有五龙潭、趵突泉；东有黑虎泉），逛了街，我总爱到这来享受美食，感受老街的风味。 还是风铃草这样写道： 老街因泉而得名，逛老街不看泉就少了感觉。 芙蓉泉位于芙蓉街69号居民院内，块石砌方尺，长10米，宽5米，深3米，池中间横跨一石桥，池北测立花岗石栏杆。清代诗人董芸曾寄居于此，并赋《芙蓉泉寓舍》诗云：老屋苍苔半亩居，石梁浮动上游鱼。一池新绿芙蓉水，矮几花阴坐著书。 可惜昔日的情景已无了，令人惜惋！ 在芙蓉街街口有一组雕塑，是根据刘鹗《老残游记》里的第二回：“历山山下古帝遗踪，明湖湖边美人绝唱”里的那个精彩的画面设计的。 刘鹗可算是文字大师，硬是用一段普通的文字把著名的梨花大鼓艺人王小玉那高超的唱法绝技描绘的入木三分，惟妙惟肖，声情并茂。那段描写堪与白居易《琵琶行》中对琵琶女弹琴的描述相媲美。那段文字是这样写的： “王小玉便启朱唇，发皓齿，唱了几句书儿。声音初不甚大，只觉入耳有说不出来的妙境：五脏六腑里，像熨斗熨过，无一处不伏贴；三万六千个毛孔，像吃了人参果，无一个毛孔不畅快。唱了十数句之后，渐渐的越唱越高，忽然拔了一个尖儿，像一线钢丝抛入天际，不禁暗暗叫绝。 哪知她于那极高的地方，尚能回环转折。几转之后，又高一层，接连有三四叠，节节高起。恍如由傲来峰西面攀登泰山的景象：初看傲来峰削壁干仞，以为上与天通；及至翻到傲来峰顶，才见扇子崖更在傲来峰上；及至翻到扇子崖，又见南天门更在扇子崖上：愈翻愈险，愈险愈奇。那王小玉唱到极高的三四叠后，陡然一落，又极力骋其千回百折的精神，如一条飞蛇在黄山三十六峰半中腰里盘旋穿插。顷刻之间，周匝数遍。从此以后，愈唱愈低，愈低愈细，那声音渐渐的就听不见了 … …” 据介绍：梨花大鼓也称山东大鼓，它风格朴实，富有浓郁的乡土气息；曲调高昂，说、唱、道、白兼备；叙事抒情交融。传统书目很多，其中尤以说为主、唱为辅的中长篇见长。现流行的有《包公案》、《海公案》、《西厢记》等。在山东，又因刘鹗的精彩描述使这一民间唱法得以传扬。 济南正在筹办全运会，到处都在建设改造。不过粗粗看过来，济南整体给我的印象很失望，这样一个文化底蕴深厚的城市，文化色彩似乎不是很浓。而且城市建设也不够大气，凌乱，落后，杂乱无章，传统建筑和现代建筑混合在一起，缺少现代化都市的气派。而且，老建筑保存的不多，许多所谓的老建筑也都是新建的，缺少原来的古风古韵，新建筑和老建筑搭配的也不协调，感觉很差。 想起了诗圣杜甫在《陪李北海宴历下亭》中留下的”海右此亭古，济南名士多”的诗句，，不知道历下亭是否还屹立在大明湖中，但济南的名士们此时不知道都哪里去了。 晚上没事，回到泉城广场，一面欣赏广场夜色，一面就着鸡大腿喝啤酒，享受幸福的旅游生活。 晚上9点，我背起背包去火车站，在车站，又买了一只德州扒鸡和一瓶崂山啤酒。然后上车，奔赴南宁。9月20日 去南宁的火车上 天亮了，火车到达安徽阜阳，外面的景物没什么新奇，倒是车厢里的小胖小子非常活泼可爱，让人喜欢。 10点半左右，车过湖北黄州，这里是著名的黄冈中学所在地。这所百年老校有着深厚的历史积淀和文化底蕴，更以其奇高的高考升学率名闻天下。 出黄州站，铁路两旁，栽种了许多柳桃，柳桃花开的正艳，花红柳绿，煞是好看。 中午到了，享受我美妙的午餐——崂山啤酒和德州扒鸡。 山东德州扒鸡是三百年来历代相传的老品牌，在中国人眼里，它可以和“沟帮子烧鸡”“符离集烧鸡”“道口烧鸡”合称为中国的四大名鸡。 因为古城德州在历史上是京杭大运河的重要码头，素有“九达通衢，神京门户”之誉。来往的商人行旅经过德州，必然要品尝这独特风味的德州扒鸡，方便时更带上几只作为礼品赠送，乾隆年间，德州扒鸡更被列为山东贡品送入宫中供帝后及皇族们享用。从而使德州扒鸡名噪天下。 我所购买的这只五香脱骨扒鸡，按上面的介绍，最早创产于禹城，因其工艺独特、用料考究、肉烂脱骨、营养丰富等特点而远近闻名。 这上面还有一段有趣的记载，说是最早制作扒鸡的王明奎，祖辈皆以煮鸡为生，他家把杀好的鸡两腿交叉别入膛内，把两翅膀从鸡脖的刀口插入，让翅尖从嘴的两侧伸出，然后放上常用的佐料，曰“扒鸡”。后来，为招揽生意，他请一名老中医开了丁香、桂皮、花椒、大料、小茴香等5味调味品，煮出的扒鸡，大开胃口，那时叫作“五香扒鸡”。 有一年秋季的一天傍晚，他把20多只鸡煮在锅里，灶中多加劈柴，燃起火就去歇息，由于劳累，醒来时天已大亮，炖时大过，锅里的鸡塌了下去，一提鸡腿，骨肉分离。他哭笑不得，只好用铁笊篱小心地把鸡捞到篮子里提到县城去卖，并将煮烂的鸡取名叫“五香脱骨扒鸡”。在县衙门口叫喊了几声后，“脱骨”二字便引起众人注意，霎时间招来了许多食客。20多只鸡被一抢而光。 从此，他家煮鸡都长时间炖煮，直至脱骨，形成了独特的制作工艺。因此，禹城五香脱骨扒鸡便名声大振，南北驰名。 吃饭的功夫，火车走过长长的九江长江大桥，从湖北进入了江西。 九江是座历史名城，有许多重大事件在这里发生。这里有当年周瑜操练水兵的点将台，有当年宋江反诗的浔阳楼，有白居易任江州司马写下《琵琶行》的琵琶亭…… 城南的庐山和鄱阳湖，在近代史上更是发生了许许多多影响历史进程的重大事件，八一南昌起义曾在这里酝酿，蒋介石的抗战宣言曾在这里发布，1959年彭德怀和整个中国的命运在这里发生转折，还有1970年***和林彪的分裂在这里公开……太多太多。 1998年我第一次来到这里，就深深感受到历史的沉重。 九江站现在是个大工地，到处开肠破肚，估计建设完工后会非常漂亮。 这时我收到济南朋友的短信，说我非常幸运，因为就在我昨天游览完济南之后，今天的济南就是大雨瓢泼，水倾如注。我的确是非常幸运。每次出来玩时都是很幸运，希望这次好运也伴随着我。 过了九江，很快车到南昌，停车时，我走上站台放松，一股热浪扑面而来，真是到了南国了，空气湿热，足有30几度。这下子减肥有条件了。 南昌下一站是向塘，这里有一所江西服装学院，楼顶的大字向全世界宣示：这里是一所中国特色大学。这所1991年才建立的学校随着近20年来中国服装也的兴起，竟然成为一所非常受欢迎的学院，其学生专业性强，就业率高，甚至出了几位年薪数十万的高级技术人员，成为独特的中国现象。 很多人把坐火车长途旅行当作一件很遭罪的事情，但对我来说，这却是一种美好的享受。 窗外，是百看不厌的风景。9月21日 广西境内 早上9点半，车到桂林，我曾3次来这里，1990年暑期，更在桂林城南的市委党校呆了7-8天，桂林确实是一个美丽的地方，有机会我希望再来这里。 车到柳州，已经是下午1点多，古人希望“生在扬州，死在柳州”。“生在扬州”，是因为扬州自古是一个繁华的大城市，但清朝入关后曾在扬州屠城十日，使城市人口锐减，所以扬州人很注意小孩的保育。因此出生在扬州，童年时代是很幸福的。而“死在柳州”，则是因为柳州棺材质优工巧、饮誉全国，所以死后能得一付柳州棺材下葬自然心满意足。 在这里，棺材不仅不是不祥之物，反而因其与“官”“财”谐音而备受推崇。出门遇到抬棺材出殡不但不觉得晦气，反而认为是升官发财的预兆，用当地优质木头制作的方寸大小的小棺材甚至会被当成礼品赠送。这也是一个很奇特的风俗。 过了柳州，路边开始出现广西特有的奇特的喀斯特地貌，风景越发秀丽。 晚上5点，火车到达南宁，出站口竟然没人收票。 我走出车站，和我的朋友小梁联系，不巧，他的父亲昨天去世了，现在正在乡下处理丧事。他告诉我，晚上要晚些时候才能回到市内。 本来打算晚上要请他一起吃晚饭的，既然他不在城里，只好自己在市内遛跶。 车站西面的北大路正在施工，交通十分混乱。 在广西大学附近的长途汽车售票处我先购买了第二天早上720第一班去东兴市的班车车票。然后在附近吃了晚饭。 在街上闲逛了一气，已经是晚上8点多，小梁来电话说他已经往回赶，40分钟后到达市内，于是我也乘车赶往他居住的广西民族学院，在那里见到了这位结识许久却素未谋面的南国的朋友。 简单交流后，他把办好的护照交给我，因为时间太晚，他又父丧在身，于是匆匆告别，我乘坐晚上最后一趟公交车赶往江南长途客运站，在车站附近找了一家旅馆安顿下来，一夜无话。9月22日 从南宁到下龙湾挨宰的经历 早上6点起来，洗漱完毕，走出旅馆，准备坐7点20的大巴去东兴。 西部就是天亮的晚，快7点了，天还确黑。 车站门口有卖快餐的，是南宁市政府的阳光早餐工程，看起来不错。我在这里买了一杯热粥和一个面包。 走进车站，车站很豪华，很气派。 我们的大巴 大巴正点出发。天气晴好，南宁的民居很漂亮。不过我看不明白是不是统一开发建设的，因为同一栋楼，结构和颜色都不一样。 这是别墅区 和东北的黑土地不一样，这里是红色的土壤。 大巴在防城市略作停留快到东兴时，一个旅游度假区的大门口 10点15分，大巴到达东兴。从车站看出去，这里的房子更漂亮，也更有特点。后来，我在越南看到了大量的这种高高瘦瘦的漂亮房子。 车站里的提示牌，据说有人到这边旅游，因为没办护照，有人说能带他们过越南去玩。结果，带过去后，那些人就勾结越南的边防把他们扣住，说他们偷渡，然后勒索好几万块钱再放人。也有的勾结越方商店进行购物诈骗，这样的事情多了，公安局就出了这样的告示。 来到车站外面，有好多摩托仔过来拉客，因为我知道车站离口岸并不远，只有2公里左右，原来计划就是走着去，所以拒绝了摩托仔，背起大包向前走去。 其实，从车站到口岸也有市内公交车，很方便。这是公交车站的线路图 在一个陌生的城市，如果有时间，我更愿意自己走。今天东兴天气晴好，虽然温度稍高，有点晒，不过也就33度左右，感觉还可以忍受。天气晴好的好处是风景看起来很漂亮。 东兴作为一个边境小城，这些年借助边贸优势富了起来，所以城市建设的也很漂亮 这是东兴街心广场和周边建筑 东兴四周也有很多旅游景点，只是出国心切，我没功夫去游览了。 国门这里有一座大清国的界碑，立此存照 来到国门大厅，竟然要收10元钱门票钱，真是生财有道。门口收了10元钱，给了一张彩印门票，我接过来，还没看清楚，就被两步之外闸口处的人收走了。 出境必须先填写出入境登记表。可关口竟然连支笔都不给准备，真是让人无话可说。 但我早有准备，入关之前，为了填表，我特意把写字笔找了出来，可这时候，那支笔却说什么也找不到了，真是莫名其妙。好在我这次准备了两只笔，找出另一支笔，填写表格。 出入境表上都是越文和英文，很多人无所适从，只好让人代添，关口有许多人做这笔生意，有人请人填表甚至花了50元的高价，至少好像也要20元，我对此早有准备，在网上已经下载了相应表格填过，现在照猫画虎，添上即可。 走出中国海关大楼，就是横跨北仑河的友谊大桥，据说当年中越战争时，这个桥曾被炸得支离破碎，后被中方修复。界河桥上有一条白线，这就是国境线，对面就是越南的出入境大厅。 进入大厅，越南关口人员倒是很客气，也许是看我年龄较大，也没为难，还笑着教了我两句越南话。到了健康检查窗口，里面一个女的畏畏缩缩地拿出那个桔黄色的健康证问我有没有，我说，你们领事馆说已经不用了。她看我明白，知道没办法敲诈，就说那交一元钱吧，于是我交上一元钱，她又撕给我一张2000越南盾的收据（合人民币8角），于是到下一关，物品检查，门口那个越南兵翻了翻我的大包，问我，来旅游？我说，是的，来看看你们美丽的国家。于是，他停止检查，让我入关。 这样，2009年9月22日北京时间10点50分，我已经顺利入关，来到了越南的国土上。 在这里，我把手表拨慢一个小时，变成河内时间9点50分。 提醒要去的朋友越南入境表上三联,都必须填好,交给越南海关后,退回一联,要保存好,等回国出境时要查看,据说弄丢要被罚款!陆路需要,飞机不用! 海关外面就是越南的芒街，又有摩托仔过来拉客，我拒绝了他的纠缠，走了不到500米，就来到了芒街市中心邮局。 芒街原本只是个边陲小镇，归广宁省所辖下，属海宁县。中越战争期间，据说曾多次变为平地。中越建交之后，芒街就凭借着独特的地理位置，成了一个重要的贸易集散地，越南政府曾将芒街划为特别经济区，亨受特殊政策，并于1998年10月设市，但仍归广宁省管辖。现在芒街不仅是贸易集散地，也成了旅游集散地，经济自然更加繁荣了。 按照攻略，先到邮局对面找坐在那里的一排中年妇女换汇。我问一个换汇的老太太，什么汇率，她说2660，就是一元钱人民币换2660越南盾，我一听，这个汇率可以啊，因为来之前我在网上查询，汇率从来没超过2600，所以也没再讨价还价，先换了1000元人民币。 换完钱，手里一下子有了266万越南盾，这下子咱也成了百万富翁了。其实这个百万富翁也没有什么可以高兴，因为以后几天我发现，当你每天动辄就花掉十几万乃至几十万时，百万富翁也当不了几天。 手里有钱，心里不慌，下一步是按计划去找去下龙湾的车。后来我才搞清楚，一公里外的市里长途汽车站有很多去下龙湾的车，可当时我不知道，只知道在邮局对面的市场可以找到去下龙湾的车，我来到市场，看一个车上放着BAICHAY的牌子，我知道这就是去下龙湾的，问司机“包纽点”（多少钱），他告诉我150千（越南盾），我隐约记得芒街到下龙湾是50千越南盾，于是我说“来特呱”（太贵了），后来他要66千，我坚持50千，后来他同意了，于是我在越南人的漫天要价面前取得了第一回合的胜利。 在越南，长期以来，和我们当年没改革开放前一样，所有服务价格实行国人和外宾双轨制，外宾价格通常高出一倍，小贩和其他服务价格也是一样，漫天要价，高出1-2倍是最经常的行情。 这一点最让入境的外国人反感。因此去越南旅游，一个必须修炼的功夫就是在砍价上与当地人斗智斗勇，一不小心就要当冤大头。从芒街到下龙，180公里，我花了50千（不到20元，实在是太便宜了，以至于我砍价砍的都有些不好意思），可许多人都花了几十元，甚至100元人民币，因为刚到越南不懂行情，所以常常挨宰。([]

陈世竹2010.享受老挝慢时光. 01（行程图、攻略）老挝LAOS，全称Lao People's Democratic 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 琅勃拉邦（清早看布施&揽湄公河晨景、白天逛寺庙——香通寺Wat Xieng Thong、维苏那拉特寺西瓜塔Wat Visoun、皇宫博物馆Royal Palace Museum、傍晚普西山Phu Si落日、夜市购物） D5 琅勃拉邦800~VIP大巴（7h、240公里）~1500到达万荣VangVieng（南松河看日落） D6上午万荣（骑行郊游，or Tubing漂流）；下午1330VIP大巴（4h、160公里）~1715到达万象Vientiane（湄公河边日落）~2030卧铺大巴（过夜） D7清早630到达巴色Pakse~730VIP大巴~1030纳卡桑村渡口Nakasang~15分钟渡船~1100到达东德岛Dong Det（湄公河看日落） D8上午东德岛（骑行看小瀑布，or包船海钓…）；下午1600渡船~纳卡桑村13号公路口~1730VIP大巴~傍晚1930到达巴色~2000卧铺大巴（过夜） D9清早630到达万象；之后万象（早市场、香昆寺佛像公园、超市购特产） D10白天万象（逛寺庙——塔峦寺That Dam、凯旋门Patuxai、西萨格寺Wat Si Saket、玉佛寺Wat Ho Phra 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

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([]
