Chapter 125 First Entry into Nepal
Nepal, whose full name is the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal, is a landlocked country in the mountainous area of South Asia. It is located in the southern foothills of the Himalayas, bordering the Tibet Autonomous Region of China in the north and India on the other three sides. The Himalayas have become the natural border between Nepal and China, and Zhou Xirui's next destination is to go to this country. .
After discussion, they rented a car to Kathmandu. The camphor trees under the sunny day are very beautiful, and the colorful houses are staggered on the hillside, with green mountains, flowing water and blue sky.
When they arrived at the port, they were stunned. There were so many people. I don't know when they would wait until they went to work and began to go through the transit procedures. The Chinese in front of Zhou Xirui felt that they had been waiting for too long, so they asked if there could be a Chinese channel.
They almost quarreled with the customs people, and Acuo and several people also took the opportunity to support them. Finally, the customs agreed to send special personnel to handle the transit procedures for the Chinese people, so they quickly passed.
After crossing the Friendship Bridge in Zhangmu, we came to Nepal, and everyone rushed to go through the entry procedures in Nepal. Some officers and soldiers checked the accompanying items, but they just looked at them briefly. I went to the immigration office to get a form, filled it out and let them go.
As the car entered Nepal, the climate became warm and dry, and some Nepalese working in the fields also wore shorts. And Zhong Yueming is still wearing a down jacket in the car!
At this time yesterday, it was still cold in winter, and today it suddenly entered spring, and the season is constantly changing in 24 hours. At noon, everyone decided to eat Nepalese curry rice at a Nepalese country restaurant on the roadside, which was their first meal in Nepal.
After eating, they continued to travel. After entering the Kathmandu Valley, everyone felt hotter, the houses were gradually dense, and there were more and more cars.
In the bright sun, motorcycles and cars are intertwined, chaotic but full of vitality. The buildings on both sides of the street are old, small buildings, and the ground is full of ** land, much like the early 1980s in China.
Modern and old are intertwined, giving people an unreal feeling. People are in a trance and don't know where they are.
After arriving in Kathmandu, everyone wore thick clothes under the sun of more than 20 degrees, thirsty and tired. Zhou Xirui decided to go to a Nepalese restaurant to eat some Nepalese specialties and take a break.
Everyone entered a traditional fast food restaurant and asked for several sets of set meals, which looked very rich. Each serving had a plate of rice, a vegetable salad, a bowl of thick soup made of various beans, a bowl of curry stewed with meat, cauliflower and carrots, half a crispy, and a cup of yogurt. It was delicious. Everyone drank it separately. After a glass of iced milk, I found a hotel to stay with satisfaction.
When he woke up the next day, Zhou Xirui used a translation box to talk to the hotel waiter. The young man said that Nepal is a landlocked alpine country, and hiking is a very good tourist project, but some valleys can't enter. It is said that there are some strange creatures living in it, although he has never heard of these creatures. There is a record of cannibals, but their appearance is very strange. People with a bad heart should not be easily scared to death.
However, the young people in front of him did not know where there were strange things in Zhou Xirui's group and where they went. After asking about the route, they chartered a car to Gili and began their exploration of hiking in the Everest area.
Along the way, there are many north-south rivers formed by the melting snow water of the northern Himalayan glaciers. If they go east, they will continue to climb over the ridges on both sides of the valley.
The vegetation on the mountain is very rich. The so-called road is that people step on the natural path in steep steps. The weather is good today, and the sun shines on the body is very warm. Several people were in the mountains under the sun of He Xu. Looking at the lushness, they all felt so good. They swept away the irritable mood in the secular world and walked excitedly. Although they went uphill all the way, everyone walked very fast.
Sitting on a big stone, Acuo took his feet out of his hiking boots and basked in the sun, and others followed his example. Everyone enjoys the scenery of the mountain and enjoys a nap after extreme fatigue. They feel very happy. For this moment, all the previous efforts are worth it!
In the evening, I came to a small mountain village in the mountains. Everyone had long heard that the food on the mountain was terrible. The hungry Zhong Yueming looked at the recipe for a long time and didn't see anything powerful.
Finally, he decided to order a pizza per person. He thought that no matter how bad a pizza is, it can be done. At least it is a cake, and there are dishes. There must be no problem to satisfy his hunger. Besides, everyone likes pizza very much. After waiting for more than an hour, I finally ate pizza, but it was a rotten dough cake, and my disappointment was beyond words.
After eating two bites, everyone simply washed, closed the door and got into the sleeping bag to go to bed. Listening to the faint sound of running water and the barking of dogs in the distance, everyone has a strange feeling that in the mountains far away from civilization and near primitiveness, the houses are logs, beds and tables are made of wood, original, and there is no need for paint at all.
The water is snow water flowing down the mountain, the lighting is powered by solar cells, and everything on the road ahead is full of unknowns and challenges. It has a wonderful and strange feeling, full of tension and uneasiness.
