Warm Tour
"Do not like the winter for many reasons: do not like the cold weather, do not like to wear heavy winter clothing, do not like can not eat fresh watermelon. So, I carry a backpack, go south to find warm sunshine."
December 26, 2001: 14:00, boarded the train from Beijing to Chengdu, T7 times. Select a hard-seat, saving more than 100 yuan.
December 27, 2001: arrived in Chengdu, more than 19 o'clock. To Chengdu was to her to eat. Just to find a good hotel, on the backpacks down in the street to eat with a big "iron vegetables" (a kind of mixed up and all kinds of vegetables, in stir-fried dishes on iron plate), for the first time felt authentic Sichuan "Ma spicy. "
December 28, 2001: Chengdu is a casual place. I was fed up after sleep, first out of the hotel to the Funan River embankment a stroll on the stroll. Although the river training works has become a model United Nations project, but walking in the river can still smell a little from time to time people "not comfortable" taste. And a large number of municipal wastewater discharged into the river, so that a layer of white river junction on the dirt. But this does not affect the river, a busy open-air teahouse business. Looked at those, or young or old people in a tea next to the leisure of the turned over the newspapers, enthusiastic pendulum gantry, or just close their eyes to the sun shines on your body, I also feel as if infected are lying spring hairy grass, just want to sleep comfortably. After that, I follow the people of South Road, Chengdu, the most prosperous section of the north came to the center of the city --- Tianfu Square. In the square surrounded by many small restaurants, food stands, I can not resist eating a big belly.
December 29, 2001: arrived in Chengdu, Qingyang Gong had to go to places. Not only here, and other temples I have been to quite different views (as the Pope Church Road, Qingyang Gong is everywhere dressed in traditional costumes of Taoism Taoist priest), but also has a number of tea, but also formed a unique cultural landscape. I draw his life for the first time. Able to get into is a "last on the Kat." Signed solution is more than 20-year-old young man. Chatted with him talk, he said that this is very much like to do the job.
December 30, 2001: Today, as usual, I relaxed stroll around. Through the alley at midnight, suddenly discovered that there was a blind massage 15 yuan an hour. I certainly would not let a good opportunity slip away. For the next hour, I feel like coming to heaven. Also noted the city of Chengdu snacks residual house diagonally opposite the alley with some old buildings in Chengdu, save the ancient "Shu" in the wind, great flavor.
December 31, 2001: New Year's Eve, I spent Tianfu Square. Square accumulated a lot of people, everyone happy with the inflatable "big hammer" Zazhao else, and sometimes also "siege" car. Crowd of people bite sugar cane, eating Mala Tang. New Year's bell near the final few seconds, we looked at the clock near the top of the building for the New Year countdown to the arrival of counts.
January 1, 2002: riding from Chengdu, Nanning, K139 sub-bound train sleeper 227 yuan. Zhuang in the train encountered a girl who lives in Nanning counties. Her passion to say that going to take me to play one day in Nanning.
January 2, 2002: At 6 o'clock arrived in Nanning, quick. Out the station first went to hotel to lay down their luggage. Bubu felt this would like to play with, but I was a beginning, Nanning attracted. The first is at this time, there are many on both sides of the street to buy snacks stall. I am the favorite street food, just to lay down their luggage could not help but eat a big meal before. After the girls took me to the Zhuang People's Park, Chaoyang Garden (Here is the people's leisure square, some people do tai chi, people jump off the national standard, it was for exercise, as well as non-governmental elements of the band, when the hear the erhu, snakeskin-Qin, Xiao playing music out, I was soon enchanted), Baisha Bridge and the Palace of Culture and so on. Around noon, the weather changed a bit hot, I can not wait to take off his coat, wearing a T-shirt.
January 3, 2001: Nanning is a beautiful, laid-back city. If you ask what I love, it is probably a rice dumplings. Here is only a thin layer of glutinous rice dumplings skin, but which all went to the skin of the bean, but also surface and flavorful. There are all kinds of other cool points, my favorite is the herbal tea. Drink go cold after penetrating the heart, the taste is not thick but long and lingering fragrance.
January 4, 2002: I visited the farmer's market in Nanning browsing. A wide variety of vegetables, fruits, seafood, poultry, and all are just like the fresh ground Zhai come fresh from the sea to retrieve the same, so I had to sigh: Why he did not born here? Another feature of Nanning feet bath and foot massage. I did once, a total of only 15 yuan, very relaxed.
January 5, 2002: In the morning, I went to the border town - Dongxing, ready to go since Vietnam. May be because there is no health card, I had to wait here re-submit. The town had a fire a few years ago, but now it is not what. A lot of floor space, and businesses have suffered, and people have less. Little town, sitting, while motorcycles can has completed. I'm looking for a cafe, can not be found. So they sat in front of the hotel, basking in the sun, edge and hotels female bosses and chat while eating sugar cane. A moment later, the ground on the all white cane rod.
January 6, 2002: Another day here, and so on. Look forward to the next day to go smoothly after finishing documents in Vietnam.
January 7, 2002: got up early to obtain a permit. Though not simple, but to also keep the run down. 16:00 crossing the border, arriving in Vietnam. I want to ride the bus to Halong Bay. May be looking ahead, not like I imagined as cars gathered, waiting for soliciting, I Jinglian a bus failed to see! No way, sitting in a motorized go to bus stop. Available at the bus stations, vote-buying has become a big problem. No one will speak English, or Chinese (with one person would say: "do you speak English?", But that he would be all the foreign language of). Later, I let him tell me to use Vietnamese various destinations, I like listening to what Halong Bay on the last car. But I am lucky guess, and finally the time in Vietnam, Halong Bay to reach more than 9 points.
January 8, 2002: In the morning go to the beach Kanxia Long beauty can be too much because the fog did not see anything, nor willing to go by boat. Think of a chair or lay down on the beach, drank two coconuts. Exasperating in this poor country, coconut still wants to sell my 4000 rupiah (about RMB nearly 3), while Hainan Island has just two dollars coconut have money! But also income chair costs 2 yuan. And I firmly believe that ordinary Vietnamese to buy coconut is definitely not the price. Later this happens I would like to consumption at any moment, really people do nothing! But the sea is beautiful, and coconut milk is delicious.
January 9, 2002: In this off-season tourist town season really is not much else to do. So I jumped on to Hanoi, "small public." Vietnam, the public is really a small car can be loaded two people, not only inside the crowded match exactly the car door still hanging 2. However, in the evening finally arrived in Hanoi.
January 10, 2002: Hanoi's hotels are expensive, foreigners must live in a minimum of about 10 U.S. dollars. However, I was across the street at the train station to find one, the most expensive is 70,000 rupiah (about RMB nearly 40 million), called the 30-4 Hotel, but if you only look at the train station across the "Pacific Airlines" brand on the do. The hotel on the first floor there is a good restaurant, the Vietnamese came here to eat an endless stream. Not miss their iced tea, making a simple but people love does not address the "mouth." Tour of Hanoi's main attractions, what the President House, the Golden Lotus Temple, West Lake and so on.
January 11, 2002: Today is my last day in Hanoi. Went to the tourists gathered in one area (I do not know What's your name), where shops everywhere, selling a wide range of souvenirs, accompanied by bars and cafes, as well as the limited number of Internet cafes. The evening, I boarded the return train, bound for Beijing from Hanoi. Here to tell you a little trick: Because the ticket from Hanoi to Beijing to be more than 1000 yuan, I would first buy a ticket Pingxiang (about 130 yuan). The thought of before making a car Pingxiang to Nanning, and then from Nanning to Beijing. Pingxiang is two to three points can be clock at night, I had to abandon the original plan, excess to Nanning (124 million). To buy from Nanning to Beijing after the T6 times Hard Seat (200 tens of million). Thus, from Hanoi to Beijing, I only took less than 600 yuan. However, by car is the cheapest.
January 12, 2002: Train gallops through Guangxi, Guizhou, Hunan Province.
January 13, 2002: arrived in Beijing, the weather was warmer than I imagined a little.
