wioska krawców – Hoi An

chiny2008 — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 09:39:18 +0000

Hoi An. Niewielkie, wietnamskie miasteczko, położone na wybrzeżu Morza Południowochińskiego, które między XVIII a XIX w. było jednym z głównych portów handlowych ówczesnych Indochin. Przypływali tu Duńczycy, Chińczycy, Portugalczycy i Japończycy. Handel kwitł. Do dnia dzisiejszego zachowała się przepiękna kolonialna architektura miasteczka. Wąskie uliczki, niskie domki, widoczne wpływy chińskie w architekturze domów i sklepów, japońskie mosty łączące poszczególne dzielnice.

Tips from my Taiwanese friend William.
About the flight from Huangshan Tunxi airport to Guangzhou Baiyun airport, you can take China Southern airline. You can also book online, maybe it is easier. The rate online is quite good. For example, one way for around 580 RMB, excl. fee. 2 flights everyday. 21:00-22:45, 22:15-23:45

From Guangzhou Baiyun airport to Guilin Liangjiang airport, You may take China Southern airline, Shengzhen airlines, East star air, 7-8 flights everyday. 330-460 RMB, excl. fee.

From Shanghai Pudong airport to Huangshan Tunxi airport, you can take China Eastern Airlines or Shanghai airlines, 2 flights everyday. 2050-2150, 2130-2240. 580 RMB, excl. fee

About the interesting spots in Shanghai,

1. ChienTsao sauna–It is a bit far away from the center, so you need to take the subway line 1 to JINGJIAN PARK and walk to the sauna. The address and the telephone number is on the attached JPG file, which may be easier for you to show when you ask someone in the hostel. Entrance fee.38 RMB, Buffet 59 RMB-not recommended. The bath massage I mentioned is by the shower area, not in the cabins. The masseurs are male. You should tell him you need basic back rubbing treatment around 98 RMB for 1 hour. There are more treatments you may add on, but I recommend at most take one more HONEY STEAMED TREATMENT, around 30 RMB more.

2. The floating city (ZHouZhuang) I have never been there, but my friends recommended. You can get information from http://www.zhouzhuang.net/

3. The museum of Chinese blue dyed textile–In the french area, an elegant local style of living. I like their products too, but not cheap. Take the subway to CHANGSHU ROAD station and walk. Not easy to find.TEL: 54037947

I forgot to mention a must in Bangkok last time. It is Jim Thompson’s villa. He is American. After his military career, he retired and settled down in Bankok. He renovated the traditional Thai house into a nice villa, with the local tectonic style. http://www.jimthompsonhouse.com/

Wizy do Wietnamu

chiny2008 — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 19:46:15 +0000

Mamy wizy do Wietnamu! Są w naszych paszportach za sprawą kilku znajomych w Warszawie. Brat Grześka Marek odsyła je do mnie i będzie można załatwić wizy Chińskie.

Jedna wiza kosztowała 120zł + drobne opłaty więc trzeba będzie się zorganizować jeśli chodzi o płatności.

Champassak

chiny2008 — Thu, 15 May 2008 08:04:06 +0000

The Champasak cultural landscape, including the Vat Phou Temple complex, is a remarkably well-preserved planned landscape more than 1,000 years old. It was shaped to express the Hindu vision of the relationship between nature and humanity, using an axis from mountain top to river bank to lay out a geometric pattern of temples, shrines and waterworks extending over some 10 km. Two planned cities on the banks of the Mekong River are also part of the site, as well as Phou Kao mountain. The whole represents a development ranging from the 5th to 15th centuries, mainly associated with the Khmer Empire.
