The first day, I and sister-in Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport until the plane took off. Was barely dawn, a bit overcast. Within a short while, the window Piaoqi strands of rain drift, that is, the lightning forced to back off time delay. Within a few call terminal occupied, and many foreigners, some dressed in sweater, some dressed in vest and shorts. Invariably carries the stuffed bag. In order to prevent altitude sickness, before leaving the hotel, I ate with the sisters-in-all a halo moving film, to prevent the dizziness, nausea, headaches. But the side effects is also very clear that not an hour, we were both drowsy, heavy eyelids like jin. Finally the sky gradually Lang, aircraft can finally take off. Even on the plane to see the extension is not absolutely out of the dark blue mountains broken clouds, when the altitude is more than 10,000 kilometers. To Lhasa's Gonggar Airport, is a half-hour later. And Tibet Tourism Bureau's Palace tour guides and the other eight belong to a group of peers who join, and also because a German late late in the Gonggar Airport we stayed more than an hour, everyone seemed burning with impatience, for the German whether it will come as some lost confidence. Palace guided the urging of everyone, to the headquarters played phone calls, in agreement with the headquarters agreement, decided not to continue to wait. We are a line of ten people on the Pakistan tour. Since before the first line of Tibet, has been to altitude sickness as a beast, imagine that the aircraft will be impatient with asthma dizzy. However, in the car, has been no response, and asked Palace guide, Gong said that the general reaction to lead in the middle of the night secluded, such as at about 12 o'clock to 1 to become strong, fundamental turn for the better the next day, on the third day will be more adapted to the . Palace guide gave a brief look at the basic situation in Lhasa. Lhasa is the famous city of sunlight, the sun normally until about 21 o'clock down, sooner or later big temperature difference between the strong sunlight at noon, when, like a summer night, when the sun falls, like late autumn. Same time, because from July to October is the wet season in Tibet, night rain almost every day. Lhasa is relatively more prosperous, its is the sex industry, dance halls, nightclubs, sauna rooms everywhere. We both expressed surprise at the kinds of claims, because the eyes of Tibetan Buddhism in Lhasa the Holy Land, the eyes of the people of Lhasa is the simple, holy. However, a few days in Lhasa, indeed confirmed that the kinds of claims. In our stay in St. Swan (3 stars), there is a nightclub, every night Shengge and out of the lady in Fenghua year, and the incomparably gorgeous, fashionable dress. Of course, there is a target of their demands in the field of the kinds of visitors and foreigners doing business in Lhasa for many years. First day of the rest are mainly to adapt plateau climate. I was eating dinner has become an exception does not apply. Up and down stairs, I feel short of breath, his head like a magic spell with the same time, nausea and vomiting. Back to the room, spit four-day, in the hotel's travel services department bought a plateau on (altitude sickness is said to be the best medicine, a box of 40 yuan) and Rhodiola (23 yuan a box), but basically What to eat vomit what medicine can not play a role. Was only an idea, if the next day or so, must go home. So lying in bed waiting for sunset, night club next door to noisy anomaly, some singing, some dancing.
The next day, altitude sickness seems to reduce the number of all kinds of discomfort also temporarily away from me. Settled down to get things finished breakfast, preparing to go to the biggest temple in Lhasa, Drepung Monastery. Light rain dripping. Tibet's monasteries to build more on a hillside at the foot of the mountains, or in general to higher ground. Climb the stairs, you can see is a very mysterious Fat Jong Temple. Jinding, coffee-colored walls, yellow, red, blue woven frescoes. Delicate and complicated patterns of canopy pattern, purple Sengyi monks, rich butter flavor, reddish-brown cheeks of the Tibetan people coming and going of the pious are lazy in releasing animals freely stray dogs gathered at the old monk who's side, these are our as these people used to Turkish culture shock felt different. Walking in the deep walls Langxia, occasionally you can see I do not know What kind of bird wings flying over, in that it is a real blue sky swept the black silhouette. Noon, we return to Lhasa city, in the designated restaurant for dinner. Vegetables in Lhasa were reportedly transported from Sichuan, the price more expensive meat. Dishes no characteristics, Gong will lead next day to arrange a Tibetan-style meals, everyone seemed very excited. Suddenly the street come a group of Tibetans in festive costumes, in the Potala Palace Square on the queue to go in the afternoon to visit the Jokhang Temple in this program, but the news from tomorrow, because of the central Tibet, Hu Jintao to attend the golden jubilee of the Potala Palace in the vicinity of martial law, so instead visit the Potala Palace. Because time is very tight, had already been around four in the afternoon (at work and rest time in Lhasa, tour guides and lunch break to 3:30 pm) and we only have about an hour of time to complete more than two hours daily for at least the time to visit the End of the Potala Palace. The entire process can be cursory to describe it. Compared with other monasteries or anyone else involved visited the palace, the Potala Palace even more magnificent, more treasures. With gold, precious stones cast Pagoda in a variety of spectacular. Out of the Potala Palace, they excitedly rush towards the Potala Palace Square, busy抢拍dressed Tibetan friends, and they are friendly, and some even gracefully bushel We greatly pleased. When the square of the people gradually dispersed, Gong guide led us into a "le," handicraft shops. At first, no intention of shopping there, but going into the store after it suddenly was to attract a variety of blankets. Pure hand-woven, color Ban Lan, weaving delicate, strong national characteristics, but also imitation Persian and Turkish carpets. Of course, expensive. I fancy a carpet, asking price 4885 yuan, Kanjia to 3600 yuan, came as somewhat expensive, and have gotten a sale of those cards, bitterly left. Tibet's four-bao, Cordyceps sinensis, saffron, Thangka, carpet. The former two are Tibetan, the latter two, both with the Tibetan ethnic characteristics of the arts and crafts. According to reports, now would be a mere drawing Thangka person has can be, and therefore expensive. The Tibetan carpet Zeyi its pure hand, high-quality wool is known for. Night is still very little altitude sickness, but not serious. About Shidianzuoyou still bear a grudge against the morning their eyes on the carpet, then picked up direct dialing telephone le, is its director of sales, access, and phone with him I had some Dakan price, he readily said that the price discussion. I am excited to Night Flight le. In addition to sales director and a salesman named Josie. Price was about 2,800 yuan. Of course, time-consuming effort, until 12 o'clock only then made the business. Their attitude was sincere, people are quite good at communicating. Later, there are still people say that expensive, but because of the mainland such as carpets rare, the price I can accept, I do not regret my choice. This shop is just two salesman handsome, generous, impressive. Then I read in the Barkhor the peak of craft, whether it is the quality of carpet, the quality of sales staff are not comparable with the former.
The third day in the morning and went to the Dalai Lama's summer palace, Norbulingka. This should be a garden-style buildings, compared to southern gardens, where rated as poor, trees, and by the end of pruning, tree-lined road than the south are nothing but the. Therefore, apart from more modern than the other temples, magnificent palaces of the Dalai Lama, 17 still have a certain appreciation of the value of other places worth a visit is not too much reason. Afternoon, drove to the Sera Monastery. Lu-yu very characteristic of many Tibetan houses. General two-story, does not seem to live under a layer of people, windows open very small, and some set of glass, and some only a layer with a grid of wooden ornaments. Walls surrounded by several rectangular or square geometric patterns, patchwork. Four corners are decorated with the yard by the barbarians from the blue, white, red, green, yellow colored flags formed, representing the blue sky, white clouds, fire, water, earth and so the five elements of nature. Sera Quwang the road has been bumpy, the car's demanding. Reach the Sera Monastery, Lama Temple happens to coincide with the whole concentrated in the courtyards and debate the scriptures, monasteries and other parts are closed. Although we can not able to go visit, but it is a comfort to be able to see the debate through the spectacular. Big and small, old and young lamas are concentrated in the courtyard, the gesture different, in particular, is not only moving her mouth, but also rich in interesting actions. The most typical action is the arms lifted high, and then Shuang Zhang strong joint attack, along with the left leg forward in, and blunt hit the ground. Viewing tourists are Japanese, foreigners, as well as hand turn through the furnace Tibetan woman, as well as sleep on the floor of the dog. There is also a debate on the floor seemed to have just awakened by the sound of a small Tibetan boy, sitting excitedly clamoring Lama heap, small body rock with laughter. Then we went to the Jokhang Temple, on the road and had met with curfews, dress of the Tibetan people lined up in both sides of Beijing Road, Yue drummer stand in combat readiness. We were blocked on the road side waiting for the central leadership team. This is a rare opportunity, and we are catching up with the golden jubilee of Tibet. I do not know over a long time, beginning with police to clear the way, followed by Pakistan a few more you drive, I see that Hu Jintao, China and Pakistan from a position of Qian Yipai car waved to the people who lined up to pay tribute. This would already have craft slice color sleeve lightly.
