Set foot – Spress

“The Five Sacred Mountains do not look at the mountains when they return, and the Huangshan Mountain does not look at the mountains when they return”, because one sentence set foot on the top of Huangshan Mountain

I forgot to see a point of view: when you visit the big-name tourist attractions in China, you will find that you may be “spoofed” when you are in it. The real scene is not as good as the picture shows. But this logic is not suitable for Huangshan, Anhui, because when you stop at any location in the mountains, you will be pleasantly surprised to find that almost no photographer can fully show the beauty of Huangshan. Shanghai-Huangshan self-driving tour route This time I came to Anhui from Shanghai for a self-driving tour, and I always heard various folk songs about Huangshan in the local area-“The five sacred mountains do not look at the mountains, and the Huangshan does not look at the mountains when they return.” I don’t know how many people set foot on this poem. The road to Huangshan. We are no exception. After leaving Hongcun, I decided to go to Huangshan Scenic Area. People always climb the “World’s Natural and Cultural Double Heritage Mountains” once in their lives. Otherwise, how can I call myself a tourist? I didn’t take the highway, but took the nearest road, S218, and it took an hour to reach the foot of Huangshan Mountain. After I parked the car, I filled my bag with a bottle of water, a few packs of tissues, a bag of biscuits, and some personal belongings. I hung a large SLR and started to enter the mountain. I was mentally prepared before climbing the mountain. The guide stated that it would take 5 hours to climb Huangshan to the summit. But who knows, I was exhausted after only half an hour of crawling. As I stopped and rested, several 40-something brothers carried heavy baskets and walked by me at steady and light steps. I could see that they should be delivered to the top of the mountain for sale. They are picks. Mountain engineering. In order to have a spiritual sustenance, I caught up with the last little brother who shipped the goods and chatted. He told me that their reward for carrying goods from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain was one dollar a piece, and the burden on him was more than 100 kilograms, which was filled with mineral water. I wanted to help him lighten a little burden out of good intentions, and I was afraid that the bottle of water I brought was not enough, so I discussed with him to buy two bottles of water for him, but I was decisively rejected. I asked the reason inexplicably. It turned out that there is a rule here that mountain workers cannot sell things on mountain roads unless they have a franchise license. Looking up at the countless steps, I began to feel sad. They may not be knowledgeable, but they have a higher bottom line than ordinary people. Since I walked relatively slowly and the burdensome brother was in a hurry, we said goodbye in a hurry, and he walked ahead of me. Slowness actually has its advantages. For example, I didn’t think that I had to climb to the top, and wherever I went, so that I could spend more time calmly watching Huangshan’s most spectacular mountain wonders this season. When climbing the Purple Stone Peak, Banshan Temple and Rusheng Pavilion, the landscape is more spectacular and extreme, and it feels like a fairyland. Facing the infinitely beautiful Huangshan peaks, I couldn’t help repeating Xu Xiake’s sigh: “Climb Huangshan, there is no mountain in the world, just watch it.” After more than 5 hours of perseverance, I was close to the top of the mountain at noon. Looking into the distance, the sea of clouds, rocks, and pine forests spread out in front of me like a scroll. Not everyone who has been to Huangshan has seen the magnificent scenery in front of them, and I am the luckiest tourist among them. I think this may be the meaning of travel, seeing scenery beyond imagination, eating things that have never been eaten, and meeting like-minded people by chance. Tips: 1. Whether you want to see the sea of clouds in Huangshan or the sunrise and sunset, you must check the weather forecast before you go to climb the mountain. Look at the sunrise on a sunny day, and watch the sea of clouds after the rain. The weather is usually sunny and there is no wind, and the probability of the sea of clouds in Huangshan after rain. Larger, it can even last for more than 1 day sometimes. In addition, from November to April of each year, Huangshan Mountains and Clouds Sea are more likely to appear, and the scene is even more magnificent. 2. If you want to spend less to visit Huangshan, it is recommended to bring food from the bottom of the mountain, otherwise you will have to bear the cost of spending more than 4 times higher on the mountain than under the mountain. The soup mouth at the foot of the mountain is an ideal replenishment place for drinking water and climbing supplies. You can purchase it before going up the mountain. 3. There is a big temperature difference between morning and night on Huangshan Mountain, so you must wear good warm clothes when you spend the night on the mountain. For example, during the day, you only wear long-sleeved sweaters at the foot of the mountain, and at night, you have to wear sports jackets or even light cotton clothes when you spend the night on the mountain. 4. Photography in Huangshan is different from photography in a park. You can step back at will to adjust the angle, because there may be cliffs behind you, so you must pay attention to the safety of your feet when shooting

Visiting the place where Uncle Ho first came to Russia

June 5, 2021, the 110th anniversary of Uncle Ho’s departure to find a way to save the country (June 5, 1911 – June 5, 2021). On that journey, Nguyen Ai Quoc soon realized the significance of historical events in the Soviet Union (formerly) and the Russian October Revolution, in order to bring the cause of Vietnam’s national liberation struggle to life. in the footsteps of the times. Today, at St. Petersburg port, we can’t help but feel excited, moved and feel more clearly about the place where he first set foot in Russia.

The view over Gutuevskaia Bay. June 5, 2021, the 110th anniversary of Uncle Ho’s departure to find a way to save the country (June 5, 1911 – June 5, 2021). On that journey, Nguyen Ai Quoc soon realized the significance of historical events in the Soviet Union (formerly) and the Russian October Revolution, in order to bring the cause of Vietnam’s national liberation struggle to life. in the footsteps of the times. Today, at St. Petersburg port, we can’t help but feel excited, moved and feel more clearly about the place where he first set foot in Russia. Saint Petersburg at the end of May it still rained a lot. Honey-colored sunlight broke through thick clouds, illuminating the golden church domes. The wind was blowing, causing the canal surface to ripple and rush against the wall. Along the banks of the Neva River, we stopped at a small pier, from here, the motorboat took us to the place where the young Nguyen Ai Quoc first arrived in the Soviet Union on June 30, 1923. According to the book “Activities of Nguyen Ai Quoc in the Soviet Union (1923-1938)” of the National Political Publishing House – Truth, when he was sent by the Central Committee of the French Communist Party to the Soviet Union to attend the Communist International Congress, Nguyen Ai Quoc had to prepare very carefully to leave Paris secretly, because at that time going from France to the Soviet Union was extremely dangerous. Nguyen Ai Quoc wrote a number of articles for the newspapers of the French Communist Party to make people think that he was still in France, and at the same time always appeared idle, not participating in any political activities. Go to work in the morning, go to the library or museum in the afternoon, go to the movies in the evening. Gradually, secret agents no longer needed to follow in the footsteps of Nguyen Ai Quoc. At that time, because of the danger, the only way from Paris to Moscow was through Germany. On the evening of June 13, 1923, as always, Nguyen Ai Quoc bought tickets for the last movie screening. Halfway through, he left the theater, quickly got off the subway to the train station in the north of Paris. Here, a French comrade gave Uncle a small suitcase that was the only luggage to secretly leave Paris. Nguyen Ai Quoc took the train from Paris to Berlin (Germany). The Soviet Government’s representative office in Berlin carried out procedures for people to enter Russia. On June 27, 1923, Nguyen Ai Quoc, with a passport bearing the name Chen Vang, was taken off the ship Cac Lipnech, leaving Hamburg. On June 30, 1923, Nguyen Ai Quoc arrived at the port of Petrograd (now Saint Petersburg). Captain A. Marozov, an employee of the Port Authority of Saint Petersburg, took us near the Gulf of Gutuevskai, where Mr. Marozov commented, that Uncle Ho arrived 98 years ago. “Did Ho Chi Minh docked at Pier 7?” he asked us again. After receiving a nod, his eyes drifted to the bay: “So this is the place.” The ship carrying us drifted slowly in the middle of the Gulf of Gutuevskai. On one side, ships anchored, the other side was embanked with old rectangular brown bricks. A large board prohibiting ships from anchoring hung on the wall. At the corner of the bay revealed a sandy shore. A large warehouse with a steel roof turned brown, lying with its back to the train “standing still” on the shore. The small yellow flowers on the pile of bricks make the scene more impressive. Pointing to the sandy shore, Mr. Marozov seemed regretful that he could only help us visualize the place where Uncle Ho first set foot in the Soviet Union. “It’s all been too long. No one remembers specifically how the ship landed and where exactly Uncle Ho got off,” he said. Standing on the train, we tried to imagine the scene nearly 100 years ago, so that we could feel everything around Uncle at that time. Unfortunately, things have changed now, but Vice Chairman of the Green Foreign Affairs Committee Peter V. Canganov affirmed that the walls built more than 100 years ago are still there. something that Nguyen Ai Quoc also saw when he first set foot in Russia. Mr. Canganov added that in the coming time, the city will speed up the project of erecting a statue of President Ho Chi Minh in St. Petersburg, as well as continue to study and document these events. where Nguyen Ai Quoc used to live and work. Captain Marozov looked towards the old embankment, recalling stories about Uncle Ho that he had heard from his childhood. I don’t know how many times the man with the silver hair had crossed the bay, but this time gave him a different feeling. Today’s “pier 7″ suddenly becomes more special, imbued with history. “Two years from now, it will be the 100th anniversary of Uncle Ho’s first arrival in Russia. The people of St. Petersburg are waiting to organize big events,” said Mr. He also suggested that the Vietnamese side propose to install a sign in the bay, so that people can better understand the story of President Ho Chi Minh’s arrival at St. Petersburg in his journey to find the way to liberate the Vietnamese people. .

The most curious island in Japan is forbidden by women

Tâm Anh (theo Theguardian) — Tue, 04 May 2021 22:40:07 +0000

Okinoshima island located in Japan is only for men. The island banned women from hundreds of years ago. The reason is said to be because of protecting the frail women during the dangerous journey across the sea.

Located in southwestern Japan, the island that forbids women from entering is known to many as Okinoshima. For hundreds of years, only men have visited this island. In 2017, the Japanese island of Okinoshima was recognized by UNESCO as a world cultural heritage. Therefore, the public is more curious about Okinoshima Island. According to historical accounts, on the island there is a sacred temple Munakata Taisha Okitsumiya worshiping a sea goddess. This is the place to perform peaceful prayers for seafarers and successful businessmen in the 4th and 9th centuries. Every year, visitors can only go to Okinoshima island on a single day – May 27. Number of visitors is limited to 200 people. Before going to the island, the male tourists will perform the ritual of bleaching by removing the entire outfit on the body and soaking in the sea water. Once completed, they could set foot on the island. After leaving Okinoshima Island, male tourists are not allowed to bring anything as souvenirs nor disclose any information during a trip to the holy island for men only. As for Okinoshima Island’s ban on women, many argue that this tradition is practiced in order to protect the weak against a dangerous journey across the sea.

The girl’s sudden end just wants to find death

Mai Hoàng — Tue, 27 Apr 2021 09:03:16 +0000

5 years after giving up the idea of giving birth, Marsha Jean (23 years old, from Hong Kong, China) set foot in 40 countries and received many valuable experiences from life.
“A few weeks ago, I left Berlin and went to Frankfurt by train, then flew over to Spain. I am in a small town an hour away from Malaga, ”Marsha Jean shared South China Morning Post.

Jean added that she needs to have a negative test result for the SARS-CoV-2 virus to enter Malaga, after which there is no need for quarantine. Each province in Spain has different rules for epidemic prevention. “I’m staying on a farm run by a lovely old couple. There are 3 other volunteers here. We were fed and lived to do chores such as picking vegetables. Yesterday, I painted the fence. This place is beautiful and peaceful, ”Jean pointed her computer screen toward the farm, where sunlight shone in the olive-tree-shaded fields and the sound of cock crowing occasionally disturbed the silence. Jean in Pakistan. Photo: @themarshajean. Starting from the run Jean started a nomadic lifestyle since leaving Hong Kong. Though she doesn’t want to say it again, life in the place she grew up was a dark time. At the age of 18, Jean bought a one-way ticket to Australia, planning to spend all the money, then ending her life. “I gain my freedom by running away. At that time, I was a skinny teenager, wanted to kill myself and was scared of everything, ”recalled Jean. A few weeks after her trip to the country of kangaroos, Jean realized that the world was not a bad place as bad as she thought it would be. “I have a wrong view of the world because of the influence from my parents and society. I realize that I can work in the hotel industry or any profession that is safe enough. Then I can travel the world, ”Jean said. She reminisces about time working at private casinos in London (UK), diving shops, cafes, restaurants, and teaching yoga in Sri Lanka. “Before I left home, I thought if I didn’t have a college degree, I would have to live on the street. I never imagined these adventures ”. Jean uses her Instagram account to record her trips: from pictures walking along the sand dunes of the Sahara Desert in Morocco; Walk among ancient monuments in Luxor, Egypt to catch dawn at ancient temples in Bagan, Myanmar or atop cliffs in Sarek National Park in Lapland, Sweden. In 2018, Jean spent 19 days walking through the Wakhan Corridor in Afghanistan, using a donkey to pack things (left). 19 year old Jean, from Iran (right). Photo: Marsha Jean. At the age of 19, Jean traveled from Iran to France to Iraq. “I want to test my own fear. Although it discouraged people from hitchhiking, that experience taught me that there are still many good people in this world, ”she said. At the age of 21, Jean hired a donkey and walked with its owner for 19 days through Afghanistan’s Wakhan Corridor, one of the most remote places on Earth with no postal service, cellular waves or the Internet, to visit nomadic communities along the way. That same year, she cycled alone across Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and northern Pakistan. “Even though I only knew it, I was suddenly excited to buy a bicycle and journey through Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan along the legendary Pamir Highway. It is the second tallest road in the world, along a stretch of the ancient Silk Road. Most of the road is unpaved, with many high passes to cross. The highest place has an altitude of 4,655 m above sea level. Every 3 seconds I have to stop once to take a breath, ”she said. Jean practices a philosophy of slow travel – a world view that focuses on connections with people and local culture. Food and music helped her strengthen these bonds. The 23-year-old girl is also a volunteer at an NGO and helps build a school in a remote village in Nepal. “I live very slowly. I spent 6 months in Pakistan, 7 weeks in Afghanistan, 10 months in Australia, ”she said. Jean has also tried traveling by means of various means such as traveling around the North of Vietnam by motorbike and sailing between the Indonesian islands of Lombok and Flores. Wishes after trips Through each trip, Jean wants to reshape misconceptions about the world. “Modern society scares us other cultures. The world is seen as a place full of danger through terrible stories and tragedy. Of course there are always risks, but I see the world with lots of nice people, ”Jean said. “We have always been taught to be wary of others, especially with countries in the Middle East,” she added. But that’s where I get to meet the best of all ”. Jean also hopes to become an inspiration for people because the media does not usually mention adventurous Asian women. She wishes by sharing her story to lay the foundation for small changes. Jean at Elephant Rocks, William Bay National Park in Western Australia. Photo: @themarshajean. Jean also has a tight budget for her travels and primarily sets foot in countries with low cost of living. “During the first two years of the trip, I spent 10,000 EUR (11,720 USD),” she said. During the bicycle trip through Central Asia, she spent about 2-3 USD / day. “Instead of staying in hotels or motels, I usually camp in the wilderness or stay in locals’ homes. I see travel as a non-religious pilgrimage. By venturing to unknown places and stepping out of my comfort zone, I changed a lot. ” Jean wants to share her story with her hometown where she was born to inspire and motivate others to overcome their fears and pursue their dreams.
