? The person who picked us up was a famous local tour guide named Xiaobei, a tall and handsome guy. He spoke Chinese well. On the way to the hotel, he introduced us to some local Nepali people. The customs, things to note, etc. It may be the first time I come to a foreign country. I am like a curious baby and it feels very fresh. Before going to the hotel, Xiaobei took us to a local Chinese restaurant for dinner. It was Chinese food cooked by a local foreigner. , the taste is average, (fortunately I brought the domestic cooking tool - Lao Ganma, and Dr. Wang who was traveling with me also brought it. However, it was confiscated by the customs before boarding the plane. Fortunately, I checked it in to avoid being confiscated. (fate), after dinner, we stayed at the best five-star hotel in the area (Shangri-La). The tour guide told us a few words, explaining that we would leave at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning, and then go back to our rooms. Maybe we were a little tired from the road and took a shower. I took a bath and fell asleep in a hurry.
? The piercing alarm clock woke me up from my sleep. I saw it was 6 o'clock. It was still one hour before the 7 o'clock departure as Xiaobei told me. I immediately got up to wash and dress, and then went to the hotel. I had breakfast in the cafeteria. It was my first time to eat in a foreigner’s place. Naturally, I was a little nervous because my English is really not good. I can only speak simple words such as hello, thank you, and bye. It’s really easy to learn when you use it. Come to In the cafeteria, several waiters smiled at me, and I smiled back. I couldn’t understand the local Nepali they spoke. I saw other people there getting food, so I went there, grabbed something to eat, and then went back. We went to the room to sort out our clothes and gathered in the lobby. Xiaobei came over early, and the driver who was accompanying us helped us carry the boxes into the car. Then we left Kathmandu and set off for Chitwan. Kathmandu is on a plateau at an altitude of 1,370 meters. Chitwan is in a basin with an altitude of only 150 meters. (Chitwan is a broad plain in southern Nepal. Rivers form alluvial fans here, nourishing fertile water and soil, thus creating a large area of ??wildlife habitat and lush greenery. Jungle. The Chitwan area, like its name, is full of magical elements: all kinds of wild animals and plants live in harmony here and enjoy themselves. The English name of Chitwan is CHITWAN, which means heart in Nepali. It means jungle, so CHITWAN is the heart of the jungle.) During the drive, we saw the spectacular snow-capped mountains, namely the Himalayas. Xiaobei introduced that this is the southern foot of the Himalayas. Many mountaineers climb from here. After almost 3 After more than an hour of bumpy ride (there are no highways in Nepal, we all walked on mountain roads), we arrived in Chitwan (everyone seemed to feel uncomfortable because they had never been on a bumpy mountain road for so long), and what greeted us was Several staff members of the local B&B just got off the bus. I felt like I had arrived in the tropics. When I saw the weather was 42°C, my God, the highest temperature in Changsha this year was only 38°C. We hurriedly dragged our luggage back to our respective places. room and turn on the air conditioner. But the air conditioner also resisted me. After turning it on for half an hour, it was still like a stove. I had no choice but to take a cold shower. At noon, Xiaobei asked us to eat. We ate local dishes, one plate of baked potatoes, and another Fried noodles, a little bit of vegetables and meat, looked unappetizing. Fortunately, I had the magic weapon Laoganma, so I managed to eat the bowl. After finishing the meal, it was almost 1 o'clock in the afternoon, and I checked again and the weather was 45℃. Xiaobei said it was too hot to go out now and asked us to go back and rest.
? We gathered to watch the sunset at 4 pm, and then returned to the room. The air conditioner seemed to give me some face, and it was actually air-conditioned. We lay in bed and rested until 4 pm, when Xiaobei took us to watch the sunset. In this place, we saw elephants and a large number of reeds swaying in the wind by the river. Fortunately, we also saw a rhino crossing the river. It was really the setting sun and the solitary heron flying together, the autumn water was the same color as the sky, Everyone took out their mobile phones to take photos and stayed there until 6 o'clock. When we returned to our residence, Xiaobei said, do you think the lunch meal is delicious? "Of course it's not delicious." As Chinese, we have higher requirements for food. Beckham said. We are overjoyed to allow you to cook in the kitchen tonight. Nurse Zhang, who is traveling with her, is also a master of cooking. A few of us went to the kitchen to prepare dinner together. It was the first time to cook in a foreign country, which was also an extraordinary experience. After half an hour of hard work, we cooked 5 dishes. Everyone was very happy with the meal. Chinese food is still delicious. , after dinner, Xiaobei took us to the town to watch a performance, local singing and dancing. We watched it for an hour and then went home. After returning, Xiaobei said a few words that we would set off at 7 o'clock tomorrow to go canoeing and jungle hiking. , and then go back to their rooms to rest, because this place is located in the subtropics. There were so many mosquitoes that I fell asleep in a daze at night (-_-) zzz At 7 o'clock in the morning, a group of 8 people set out for the jungle.
We went to ride a canoe and heard from Xiaobei that it was made of hollowed-out oak. The six of us got on the boat cautiously because we heard from the tour guide that there were crocodiles in the river. The girl who was traveling with me was extremely scared. Xiaobei explained that these were alligators, which only eat small fish and shrimps, not humans. The girls were relieved. We all sat in the canoe and went down the river. We saw a few crocodiles basking in the sun. We were all scared. I didn’t dare to say anything, but I also saw the sika deer grazing on the shore. It was really eye-opening. The environment here is so good, it is really a paradise for animals. After an hour, I arrived at the end of the downstream, and then went on a hike in the jungle to see various animals and plants. , around 10 o'clock, we returned to our residence. Xiaobei said that 10 o'clock to 2 o'clock in the afternoon is the hottest time of the day. He was afraid that we would suffer from heat stroke, so we went back early to rest until 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and we went riding together. After the elephant arrived, a group of 4 people sat on the back of the elephant. The elephant trainer led us to the jungle. The elephant walked very slowly. We bumped all the way on the elephant's back, feeling nervous and excited. On the way, we saw several rhinos grazing at close range, monkeys, peacocks, and sika deer, and marveled at the wonder of the Creator... At 6.30 in the morning, we bid farewell to Chitwan and set off for Pokhara (Pokhara, the second largest city in Nepal) , the most famous scenic spot in Nepal, is a city located in the Pokhara Valley at the foot of the southern Himalayas in central Nepal, about 200 kilometers east of Kathmandu and 900 meters above sea level. The basic terrain is low mountains and hills, and the river valley is wide and flat. It takes about 4 hours. When I arrived in Pokhara, my first impression was that the city was very clean. It was neat and tidy. When we got off the bus, there were local vendors selling fruits. We bought some local small bananas and apples, the prices were similar to those in China. After that, we went to the hotel to settle in. At noon, Xiaobei took us to a local-style restaurant. After eating finger food once, as expected, I took out Lao Gan Ma again. Lao Gan Ma is really a must-have artifact for traveling. While eating, Xiao Bei said that there is a self-funded paragliding project in the afternoon, and the price is 600 yuan per day. Man, who wants to go? Of course, the four of us young people were very enthusiastic, and the two seniors naturally did not go. After dinner, the four of us climbed to the highest mountain in Pokhara. Xiaobei said that the weather was very good today and the wind was very strong on the top of the mountain. Suitable for paragliding. When paragliding, a coach will lead you to play together. do not be afraid. Then we started extreme aerial sports. Under the leadership of the coach, I went up to the sky, embraced the blue sky, and soared with the eagles. It felt very exciting! After flying for about half an hour, everyone landed at the lake together. evening. Xiaobei took us to a Chinese restaurant, which was owned by a Chinese. The stir-fried dishes are very authentic and delicious. The proprietress is a Chongqing native. She is dignified and generous. When meeting a fellow villager, she naturally wants to chat more. After the meal, everyone goes back to rest. Xiaobei told me to watch the sunrise at 4.30 tomorrow. Let's get up at 4 o'clock. The weather was not good, and it was raining lightly outside the window. I checked the time at 4 a.m., and thought that if it rained, I shouldn’t get up to watch the sunrise. I asked Xiaobei in the group, and Xiaobei said that we would meet at 4.30. Now, It's just a light rain, maybe it will stop when we reach the mountain. The scenery will be more beautiful by then. After hearing what Xiaobei said, everyone gathered at the door with a little anticipation. Then the driver drove and we set off towards the top of the mountain. After half an hour, we finally reached the top of the mountain. Everyone looked forward to watching the sunrise, but unexpectedly, the rain got heavier and heavier. We didn't see anything, so everyone returned disappointed. The old man said to Xiaobei speaking in Changsha dialect, "Xiaobei, who just said that it would stop raining when you go up the mountain?" Everyone laughed, and Xiaobei also laughed awkwardly. If it rains today, I'm afraid he can only Stay at the hotel and go back to the hotel. Everyone was waiting for the rain to stop, and then Dr. Wang suggested that everyone go shopping together to buy some specialties and so on. They came to a commercial street. While shopping, they saw a few cattle lying in front of the shop to take shelter from the rain. The shopkeeper also gave them food. We are all curious about scalpers eating it. Xiaobei explained that in Nepal, cattle are the mounts of Lord Shiva and are sacred animals. They cannot be harmed. These cattle are stray cattle. They can walk around the streets and graze on the roadside at will, and no one will hurt them. (I thought to myself, if these cows were in China, they would have been on the dining table long ago, but I didn’t say it out of respect for Xiaobei’s beliefs), and then. Everyone went shopping individually. It continued to rain until the afternoon. Xiaobei suggested that we go swimming in the lake in the rain. It was a normal taste. Everyone accepted the suggestion and came to the lake. There are large boats and small boats on the lake. The large boat can seat 6 people. There were 3 people in the small boat, and 6 of us got on the big boat. Rowing in the rain was indeed a unique experience. We worked together to row the boat from this end to the small island in the middle of the lake. There were many pigeons on the island, and we all strolled around for a while. After that, we returned to the original place, and then Xiaobei took us to an underground cave waterfall. We ended the day here. When we returned to the hotel, Xiaobei told us that we will return to Kathmandu tomorrow and need to take a car on a 250-kilometer mountain road. It is expected that 8 hours later, everyone collapsed when they heard it. Tomorrow is probably going to be the most difficult day. Fortunately, everyone has gotten used to it these days. I hope everything goes well tomorrow! At 6.30 in the morning, after everyone had breakfast, a group of eight people returned to Kathmandu. After eight hours of turbulence, they arrived at Nagarkot, the closest place to view the snow-capped mountains (Nagarkot is a village in Nepal close to the Himalayas, located directly opposite a On the ridge of the Himalayas, known as the "Observation Deck of the Himalayas", you can see the world's highest peak from the widest and most beautiful perspective. The edge of the Kathmandu Valley is famous for its charming mountain scenery.
Among all scenic spots, Nagarkot Resort has the best scenery. You can generally enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery when you go to Nagarkot from October to March of the following year. It is 32 kilometers away from the capital. ), it was already evening when we arrived at Nagarkot. After everyone finished eating, they went back to their rooms to rest. Xiaobei said that he would watch the sunrise and snow-capped mountains tomorrow morning and let everyone get up early. You can watch it in the room. When you wake up in the morning, the weather is very good. You can see the spectacular Himalayan snow-capped mountains in the mountains and marvel at the magic of nature. After breakfast, return to Kathmandu to visit the Great Stupa (Bodhnath Stupa), located 8 kilometers east of the center of Kathmandu. It is one of the famous monuments in Nepal. The tower is 38 meters high and 100 meters in circumference. Bodhanath Stupa Bodhnath is the largest round stupa in the world, with a huge white dome. Bodhnath is one of the cultural heritages of the Kathmandu Valley. There is another interesting thing here. We saw someone sleeping on the ground. There are many stray dogs. They are not afraid of people or bite people. They just lie there quietly and sleep. Xiaobei explained that dogs in Nepal are the happiest. No one disturbs them. They eat and sleep whenever they want. This is truly the best example of how humans and animals can get along. In the afternoon we visited Durbar Square (Nepal? Kathmandu Durbar Square) means Palace Square. There is a Durbar Square in each of the three ancient cities in the Kathmandu Valley: Kathmandu, Patan and Badgang. The Palace Square of the Three Kingdoms. During the heyday of the Malla Dynasty of the Kingdom of Nepal, it once reached its peak in culture, architecture, and art. After the death of the sixth king of the Malla Dynasty, his three sons each took their own side and became kings. In order to seize control of the Tibetan trade routes, they fought against each other and spent huge sums of money to build the Palace Square. It includes Nepal's Newari classical temple buildings and palaces from the 16th to 19th centuries, and is now a glorious world cultural heritage. On April 25, 2015, at 14:11 local time, an 8.1-magnitude earthquake occurred in Nepal (28.2 degrees north latitude, 84.7 degrees east longitude), causing most of the buildings in Durbar Square, a world cultural heritage site in Kathmandu, to collapse.) Afterwards, we returned to the hotel. rest! After eight days of journey, we ended our trip to Nepal. Although Nepal is poor, it has an amazing number of temples. What are they praying for? healthy? wealth? Or is it food? Sometimes, it is easier for poor people to believe in God, which may be a kind of sustenance and comfort because they are unable to change the current situation, or it may be a helpless compromise and escape from life.
? But people still live happily and self-sufficiently. In taxis that are about to fall apart, and in big buses with clattering frames, cheerful Nepali music overflows, running like deers along with the subversive kilometers. People sitting on the roof of the car will wave to you when they see the lens of your camera. They can also sit lazily on the tall tower, drink coffee, enjoy the fruits of the day's work, and enjoy the sunset. You can also carry large and small bags to practice stalls and sell along the streets. The Chinese are obviously the largest consumer group here, and the Nepalese are very friendly to the Chinese. From time to time, CHIAN and CHINESE will be heard from people passing by, showing a kind of friendliness, and perhaps hoping that you can patronize their shops. The premise of being friendly is that they hope you don't charge too high a price. They will also make naughty expressions and actions like hanging, committing suicide, or being shot to tell you that the price is too low.
? The poor urban environment and roads are in sharp contrast to the peaceful and happy people here. I like this country’s scenery, culture, and even more the people here, which allow me to see us as we were twenty or thirty years ago. I don't know what kind of language and mood to use to express my curiosity and good impression of this place.
? This is a paradise for backpackers and a holy land for pilgrims. It has the most beautiful scenery, simple people and carefree animals.
? Nepal is a worthwhile trip!
