May 4, 2004 at 19:24, I and my father and mother boarded the T69 at the Beijing West Train Station and began our trip to the northwest.
After two days and two nights of swinging, at 15:19 on May 6 has finally reached the capital of Xinjiang, Urumqi ---. Urumqi's Taxis are the rules, the car should carry a table, starting 5 yuan, not expensive at all. So, called a lease to take us to the city center to find accommodation. The driver is very enthusiastic, took us to the Post and Telecommunications Hotel (it may be the postal hotels, remember a), the room nice, the price can be, it is not a triple room. Staff of the District we went to a nearby hotel. Triple 160 with free breakfast, great room, 24-hour hot water, newly renovated. A taxi to the train station 8 minutes walk to the Wada Street pilaf 5 minutes, 51 starlight night market 10 minutes.
To lay down their luggage, a little grooming a bit, and we went straight to People's Park, a look at tomorrow's shuttle bus bound for Tianchi. Turn over the front of the People's Park, the back door, only to find absolutely no "Tibetan antelope," said the shuttle, are travel agents tour. Because it is already more than 5 pm, and uncertainty is not state-run bus from work, so decided to come back early tomorrow morning exploration.
Erdaoqiao a taxi to the market, it seems that it took less than 10 yuan, about ten minutes to go. The right side of the mouth of the market in the erdaoqiao King fast-food restaurant to eat two strings each of chicken (a foot to a long string), shared a plate of pilaf. Because even eat dinner, dared not used to ask. Islam formal restaurant, keep drinking, very clean, nice attendants enthusiasm, the taste of rice Ye Hao. While we enjoy a meal out of the window while the square one of the elderly Uygur dance performances, very cozy.
The proposal, if shopping in Xinjiang, then buy in Urumqi, erdaoqiao markets are more formal, product variety, and some selection, and the price cheaper than the country of origin. I then went to Kashgar Grand Bazaar to buy Yingjisha knife and found that it turned out to be Urumqi erdaoqiao wholesalers market. Promised to help colleagues with two large wool shawl, spent more than two hours of shopping and bargaining, and finally the successful completion of tasks (a 60 yuan, 80 yuan a better quality of some of them).
Went across the street came out a lot of rolling an international, first floor, visited the stroll, feeling no meaning, they come out along ethnic customs go back a street, surrounded by the Uygur people, with loud cries for buying a Uighur, very lively. Because before he came here heard of Uygur people are very brutal, are unfriendly aliens, so I am a little nervous. (Later proved to be biased, Uygur people are very warm, simple, know better than some Chinese politely.) Way glance right and left, and finally found a dream on the roadside in Xinjiang famous yogurt. 1 yuan bowl of yogurt girl helped me to buy some sugar into Tim, eating the first mouth, my God! Thick, and swallow a teaspoon able to pull wire, the sour-sweet, which is simply to meet!
Came after a market, there are a lot of snacks, vegetables, fruits and a variety of capsule. Davis is very excited to have to buy a bunch of different kinds of capsule, I chose one looks very clean stalls selling everything from food Xinjiang lapin. 3 yuan a bowl, Jiaoliao Qian, suddenly found his hand carefully pull the boss is the nose, and her husband by hand (no chopsticks) to face-lifts, and other spices in a bowl, then boss of the end for me does not wash their hands come. At that time there is no nausea, my appetite had, but before he came here to listen to people speak Uygur people who hate to waste food, to how much food to eat, so I choked back to eat two really could not eat went. Bowl a push, stand up and pretend that nothing like walking out and wife come pick up bowl, with a smile said something something, did not understand, and quickly washed her mistake of saying he smiles a thank you and ran away. Mother criticized me too wasteful, and dared not to explain with her, until the two blocks out of the area before going with her talked about the reasons for not eat since then never eaten at a roadside stall.
The people pointing, we sat 44 51 Star Road car went straight to the night market. People's Park's next stop, move forward for a while, suddenly appeared in front of a sidewalk. Good fun呀! Over the street is composed of numerous Star light bulbs to illuminate the bright night market anomalies in the middle is the bustling crowd, both sides filled with a wide variety of food stalls, Xinjiang and inland there, clean, tidy and neat . With the flow of people to go look inside, waves of fragrant come originally Kaoquan Yang's stall.
9:00 am on the first floor restaurant to eat at the Home Hotel buffet breakfast, four kind of side dishes, Hanamaki dumplings, porridge, but I drink their milk tea, salty, and very helpful in digestion (tea in Xinjiang are provided free of charge to all of the restaurant place). A Uygur girl waiter know that we are going to Heavenly Lake, told us that her family lived in Tianchi, let us first take a long car to Fuyang, sub-light will be able to Heavenly Lake, is still keen to go on the street had stopped to help us one to let the driver to take us to the coach station. Because I still wanted to see if there is no special bus lines, they still went to the People's Park.
The front door to the park, no one get off a few people up on the Circuit of the self-presentation is Hongshan travel agents to start Tianchi the bus 10, 60 yuan a person, I want to state-owned bus was also a window to try his luck on the left to negotiate with them under the father and mother that he ran out and look at the travel agent who really did not lie to me, no one state-run bus to work, the door lock has also been a very rusty. Back to the father and mother and found that the price has dropped to 40 yuan a person, including round-trip fare for free guided tours, so the bus tour on the Red Mountain.
10 points to deliver the car and began to feel this tour really good, but the next 1 hour bus in the city and turn to pick up guests, 11 points away from the urban area before opening. Guide is a 20-year-old girl, had been pretty, smiling all day long, but just do not introduce the Heavenly Lake, Xinjiang, or something Yishang Che on Fadia, he said he birthday tomorrow, so that passengers in advance for her performances too. Several visitors were in front of the struggle, however, have to sing a song.
One and a half hours later arrived in Tianchi, really beautiful, well worth a visit. But not too much tourist guides, they will not do any attractions introduction, it will only take everyone to sit yachts, take kickbacks, and other attractions that are human landscape, not worth a go. Do not believe, must put all the parts turn times, we will be in vain.
Pilaf: 17 pilaf famous, but now the hottest, most guests are not 17, but 17 Mayflower Street, opposite the Wada pilaf Monopoly 0991-5820491, local people a lot of points, they will not even bits of rice possible points, missed meals Zai Qu. We all went to two, compared with Wada Street Mayflower pilaf Monopoly dining environment better, but also taste better.
