Section 1266 Before the Buddha

The price finally asked for less than 200b, which is the rhythm of not asking for money, maybe the waiter miscalculated haha. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info [] full of wine and food, and decisively went to the night market to slip away. The night market in Pai County is very small, it is the road in the central area of Aya, and many shops are not open during the day, but only open at night. Walk around, all kinds of postcards, small and fresh.

There are also a lot of dogs sleeping in the middle of the road, no one bothering them, this is really a paradise for animals. After about half past nine, go back to rest and feel conscious. Lying in the hammock outside the hotel at night, listening to the birds in the trees and the frogs in the water, it is really a bit of a feeling of a good year in the fragrance of rice flowers. This kind of beauty can't be!

The breakfast in the hotel is really perfect, especially rich, everyone must order breakfast. After eating this breakfast, I directly omitted lunch, haha. The first stop is the Hellokity Theme Hotel, which is Paiwaan. Second stop: Maripai. It's the famous big tree swing, and there are really too many people to take a good picture.

If you want to shoot this, it's either early or late, everyone has their own time. Yunluo and An's first encounter was to get up early on the last day to shoot. When I came out of the big tree swing, the weather was too hot, so I decided to go to the strawberry field to drink delicious strawberry juice. And the little cute rabbit I saw yesterday. It's almost 1 p.m., and the elephant camp closes at 5 p.m.

So I decided to go straight to the elephant camp. The elephant camp continues to ride forward at the Erzhan Bridge, which is a scenic spot on the southern line. There are about 3 or 4 shops running here at Elephant Camp, and everyone has their own preferences. Yunluo and An first met and rode Tomelephant, the tallest female elephant. There are many programs and ways to play at Elephant Camp.

Yunluo and An Chuyu chose two people to ride an elephant and bathe with the elephant, 800 baht for two people, playing for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Yunluo and An Chuyu also spent 50 baht to buy a large bunch of bananas for the elephants to eat. The elephant is so hard, if he is disobedient, he will be beaten by Lao Tai, and Yunluo and An Chuyu who see it are distressed, they are using a hammer as a headache, and it sounds very painful.

Elephant riding is actually available in many places, including Phuket and Chiang Mai. But elephant riding in Pai is highly recommended. It's the best place to play, there is jungle and water, and you can also swim and bathe, and you have a lot of fun. Don't worry about taking pictures. Lao Tai's photography skills are good, and he takes Yunluo's SLR to shoot throughout. The captures are all very good.

The elephant is also very hardworking, causing Yunluo's short-lived Thai pants to open his crotch haha, so shy haha. It's super cool to play, and the whole process is very enjoyable. However, given that the pants are open to the crotch. Plus the clothes are soaked, let's go back to the hotel and take a shower haha. So I rode all the way back to the hotel, and it was almost 5 o'clock after taking a shower.

Chase the sunset decisively and go straight to Meiyin Temple. The clouds come to see the sunrise, and the beautiful sound looks at the sunset. That's true. Yunluo and An Chuyu rode all the way, detoured far, in fact, it can be reached in 10 minutes from the other direction of the hotel, but it should be another time to enjoy the scenery of the southern line haha.

When I arrived at Meiyin Temple, there were already a lot of people on the mountain, and everyone sat down and quietly bathed in the last sunshine of the day. After watching the sunset. Make a beeline back to the night market. Tonight's dinner is to buy stall food and 711 beer, go back to sit outside the cabin where Yunluo and An first met to eat, cozy and cozy to continue to walk through the night market.

It's such a cheap fruit, a big bag of strawberries is only 30b. There is also Yunluo's favorite durian. The durians here are super delicious. Get up in the morning and start the morning shooting of the hotel, this hotel is really beautiful, a flower, a grass and a world. After the morning shooting, I went to eat that delicious breakfast, and today's staple food is the American breakfast of sugar eggs, all kinds of fruits are eaten ahaha.

Infinity pool, walk up. phupaiartresort。 You can search for this on Google Maps, it's hard to find, turn left and right. But there's really nothing to say about the scenery. If it's not Yakiyama, it's a good choice to live here. Phupai signage is everywhere in Chiang Mai and the promotion of this hotel is really on point.

Everywhere you look, you'll find the signage for this hotel. Even if they are separated by more than 10 kilometers. Come from the clouds. Yunluo and An didn't come to see the sunrise when they first met, because they couldn't see the sunrise because of the burning mountain. Came here right out of the infinity pool. This is a famous spot on the northern route of Pai County. Halfway through Huaguo Village, trust your Google Maps, yes.

The road is particularly steep, with the largest inclination of 50 degrees. Go to the top and you'll get there. The scenery is average, but if you don't burn the mountain, you should be able to see a panoramic view of Pai County, which is worth visiting. 20b tickets, you can eat bananas for free, and there is fragrant tea to drink, which is very refreshing. Yunlai went down the mountain to the entrance of Huaguo Village, and the other road is to go to Moban Waterfall, which is a few kilometers away.

The road is not very easy to walk. Yunluo and An Chuyu decisively went over to find out. Remember to use Google Maps. 20 minutes to get there. There are some European and American travelers, mainly local Thai children playing under the waterfall, and the scenery is not bad. It's almost 1 o'clock after watching the waterfall, which is the hottest time of the day. Resolutely go back to the hotel to cool off.

Miss Bear looks at the photos in the camera and drinks iced green tea. Rabbit Xiansen sleeps haha. Depart again at 4 p.m. Go out at 4 o'clock and go straight to the windmill hotel, the location of this hotel is still very good. It's on the way to the south line, just out of the city, pay attention to the signs. There is a small road, turn into the windmill hotel.

In fact, it is a large manor with tourists living in it, and there is a large swimming pool where many children play. If you go to this hotel in February, there should be a large sea of flowers, it will be beautiful. When Yunluo and An first met, some of the flowers were about to wither. It was already 5 o'clock when they left the Windmill Hotel, and Yunluo and An Chumet continued to ride the southern route.

Go to all the hotels that you haven't been to, don't miss any of them, see if there is a good view, and come to take pictures tomorrow morning. In the end, I really found two ha. Finally, I rode to the second station bridge and saw the famous Captain Jack. Captain Jack's camera is very good, but the level of photography is average.

It's still good to take group photos and funny photos with him, but don't take a photo. This guy usually comes to Yunlai at 9 o'clock in the morning and comes to Erzhan Bridge at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. His postcards are still pretty good. It was already half past six when I left the second station bridge, and haha the bear rabbit was really able to play. It was already pitch black on the road back to the county seat, with the headlights on.

I didn't see much people on the 10-kilometer road. Everything is quiet again, a little bit of a feeling of relying on Miss Bear haha. The sight was not good in the dark, so I didn't dare to ride too fast, basically no more than 50 miles, and returned to the base camp in about half an hour. Continue to the small beer, small stalls, and small night market. Enjoy the last night in Pai.

In order to sleep with you, it was all worth it. The bus stops in Thailand are too simple. Nothing was written, and how to get in the car had to be asked to the locals. What is special is that there may be two routes on Bangkok buses even if they are the same way, and the difference is in the color of the sign in front of the bus. So be sure to check with the conductor when you go up.

At the train station, Yunluo and An Chuyu met a brother who could speak Chinese, and heard him say that he was reading books and learning Chinese by himself, so powerful Youmu taught Yunluo and An Chuyu to speak Thai on the way. It turns out that Savadika is also divided into two kinds of boys and girls, and the Thais are also troublesome, so it's really drunk that the best thing to do is to take a yellow-green taxi.

Furthermore, we explain bymeter beforehand. This is one of Bangkok's major transportation hubs, Hua Peng Railway Station. At the beginning of the journey, Khao San Road can be said to be a gathering place for foreigners in Bangkok, all of them are foreign backpackers, and even the owners of many shops are foreigners, so I feel that I have nothing to do here to talk to, and it is good to practice speaking, haha Thai specialty snacks. Be sure to try it.

It can be said that up to 50b serving. It's all bars, and it's quite lively, but the trouble that comes with it is that it's quite noisy when you sleep, and if the hotel is set on Khao San Road, it's destined to be a sleepless night. The hotel where Yunluo and An first met is one or two streets away from Khao San Road, which is much quieter and quite scientific.

I met a lot of Thai people who kindly gave Yunluo and An the first meeting directions, full of goodwill, on the first day of Yunluo and An Chuyu, they went to several scenic spots in Bangkok, the Grand Palace, and Wat Pho. Wat Arun, walking in the old city of Bangkok, you can experience a different culture, the sunset on the Chao Phraya River is particularly charming, the clean streets of Bangkok locals tell Yunluo and An first encounter.

The Buddha statues in Bangkok come in three postures. Standing, sitting and sleeping, below is said to be the most famous standing Buddha in Bangkok, sitting Buddha to see the Emerald Buddha Temple, sleeping Buddha to see the Wat Pho Temple. Tuktuk tuk, an important means of transport in Bangkok. Go up and be sure to remember to make a counteroffer, cut in half, and don't have a great snack that you're welcome, but forgot what to call it.

In Thailand, people seem to like to use banana leaves for food, which is environmentally friendly and hygienic. Lawn outside the Grand Palais. The Grand Palace, there are a lot of tourists, I feel that 70% of them are Chinese, you can hear the local dialects, friends please come here to gather, "there are too many people, I don't know how to compose a picture."

It's time to perform the real technique of the beautiful mural, which tells the story of the Thai Buddhist family, and if you are patient, you can take your time to look at it one by one. I was lucky enough to see the changing of the guard ceremony, which was quite fun. Isn't there a lot of people? It is said that there are 108 different patterns. Cross the Chao Phraya River by boat and head to Wat Arun.

Remember that it is the ferry boat on the left in the picture below, about 3b per person, which is very cheap, and the cruise ship on the right, the price is more than a little expensive, and the local tyrants can try it. Wat Pho, there are a lot fewer tourists, it seems that Chinese tour groups do not come here, but in fact, there are not many things to see. The temple has three floors, one layer is steeper than the other.

It's a bit like walking the ancient road of Huashan, haha to climb the Wat Arun, which can overlook the whole of Bangkok. Full of happiness. Look for your cat, haha, there are a lot of cats and dogs on the streets of Thailand, and they are all very docile. This dog-friendly dog, which is limited to Bangkok and Chiang Mai, Ayutthaya and Sukhothai, has had the experience of being surrounded by dogs at sunset on the Chao Phraya River.

A French girl traveling alone is photographing the sunset. Hua Guo City, particularly lively, you can go to visit, the Chinese in Bangkok still retain a lot of Chinese traditions, some of which are rare in China, only the older generation can also speak Chinese, the new generation can only speak a few words. Yunluo and An met for the first time through Huaguo City.

After a night of walking, I walked back to Khao San Road, taking Minvan is the main mode of transportation for the locals, and you can take Minvan to surrounding cities, including Pattaya, of course. You can ask the locals which ticket office to buy tickets at Maeklong Go. Go to Maekon 70b alone, an hour and a half by car.

Don't look for an intermediary to buy, Yunluo can only say that the super expensive United States attack the railway market, the train has not yet come, the railway is super dilapidated and super old, it feels like it can't be trained, it really deserves to be the most dangerous market in the legend. Making rice dumplings on the boat, which can be understood as a Thai taste, is delicious and worth trying, and the train departs from here as if there is a trip every hour.

Amphawa Floating Market is a floating market for locals, and it is a less commercial floating market than Damnoen Sado Floating Market and other floating markets, so if you want to feel the local atmosphere, you must visit it. Since it's not a weekend, there aren't many shops, but you can experience the tranquility of a floating town.

Heard. In a certain season, you can rent a boat at night to watch fireflies on the river, and you can take a songthaew from Maeklong to Amphawa, which is about 10b per person. There is a minvan directly back to Bangkok, 80b per person. Encounter a movie set. The Thai youth idol drama returned to Bangkok in the evening and decided to go see the Erawan Shrine.

I was very lucky to watch a Thai performance at the intersection next to the Erawan Shrine, and later learned that today is the first day of the Thai Tourism Festival, haha the traditional Thai rap trio, although I can't understand what is being said. But I was infected by the joyful atmosphere of the scene. Haha, this thing has a very familiar and dignified host.

Coming to Pattaya from Bangkok, dropping off the luggage, Yunluo and An went straight to the beach when they first met. But when it comes to the beach, the polluted waters, the sand, it is inevitable to be a little disappointed, there is nothing to remember about the beaches of Pattaya. After a round on the beach, night falls and the bars start to fill up. Naturally, there are more people on the streets, unlike other cities in Thailand.

Pattaya is full of European and American faces, and the evening is the most charming time in Pattaya. Alone, along the pedestrian street by the sea, all the way to the end of the road, there is a chance encounter with a ladyboy on the road, look at it strangely, I am really not interested, so I didn't go to see the ladyboy show. Muay Thai in the bar. Be careful when you go up and take a group photo, maybe......

Super delicious bananapancake. Pad Thai. Blowing the sea breeze. Playing the guitar, he is at the end of the pedestrian street, and it costs 30b per person to go to Kolan Island, and the journey takes half an hour. There are several beaches on Koran and it is possible to rent a motorbike (200b) on the island. Walk around the island and spend the afternoon at a beach of your choice.

It is no exaggeration to say that Kolan's beaches can explode several times in Pattaya. Blue sky and blue sea, soft white sand, Yunluo, who didn't plan to go to the sea, couldn't help but buy a pair of swimming trunks and hugged the sea. It can be said that by 400b and a half hour, it should be lower.

I rode Hainan before, and I wanted to play when I went to Yalong Bay in Sanya, but this time I finally made Yunluo feel refreshed, and Yunluo wanted to fly higher and ride a motorcycle on the beach quietly on Kolan Island. It's the largest weekend market in Southeast Asia, with everything you can find and a lot of your favorite knick-knacks, from BTS to street magicians on night trains.

Ayuttaya, iaming's train in Bangkok is similar to the green train in Huaguo, it should be an old antique with a history, full of literature and art, maybe because of the night, there are not many people. Yunluo and An Chuyu sat on the chairs close to the cab, and they could almost see the driver's operation. Without a flyover, it will also cross the traffic light like a car.

I have to say that the traffic in Bangkok is still quite chaotic, no matter what, because Yunluo's heart has already flown to the ancient city of Ayutthaya Riverside Hotel, super super hotel, 200b per person per night, breakfast is included and sit on the top of the boat alone, eat and drink, occasionally flip through the book, listen to the Qing bar on the other side of the river is not the singing of acoustic guitar accompaniment, isn't this the picture depicted in the novel?

The ancient ruins of Ayutthaya can be found in various historical parks, so cycling should be the best way to travel. Because the hotel was rented, so one person and one bicycle started the first day in Dacheng Yunluo and An Chuyu first went to the Dacheng Visitor Center to get a free very detailed Chinese map, and visited the Lower Ayutthaya Museum.

Then began to shuttle through the various historical sites, walking in the historical civilization of the city's floating market, where is it, turn the map by yourself from the ancient city of the square sculpture, it seems that there is only a tourist, the square has been set up, the ground is full of monks, believers, it seems to be ready to open something......

The group of ruins located in the southwest outside the ancient city is one of the best, not one of them. Dacheng slept a lazy night, didn't go anywhere in the morning, just stayed in the hotel to write postcards, the small days were very moist, haha halfway through the exchange with the innkeeper under the guitar, he was really good, a hand blues6 to the afternoon and wait for the sun to be smaller, continue to visit the ancient city tree Buddha.

In fact, this is a group of relics, this is just one of the highlights, there are many places worth going to behind, but Yunluo sees a lot of tour groups bring people here, and after seeing the Buddha in the tree, they worship it, the tour group is too irresponsible, the sun is setting, and the day has passed. Ketai, a Spanish couple who gave Yunluo and An a lot of help when they first met in the city, went to the visitor center to get a free tourist map.

However, they are also like other people who Yunluo and An first met on the journey, and they will be taken at the time of farewell indefinitely, in fact, they made a lot of friends at the hotel at that time, and the boss and his staff were very good, and then I don't know how I didn't take a photo to commemorate it, and I regret that today's plan is to go to Sukhothai.

The boss kindly called a songthaew for Yunluo and An Chuyu, and Yunluo and An Chu met the bus station to prepare for the three-hour journey. The bus will stop in some places on the way, on the one hand, it is convenient for Yunluo and An to meet for the first time to eat and toilets, on the other hand, it also drives the local economy, killing two birds with one stone, and meeting an elderly couple and a brother and sister while waiting for the bus at the bus station. (To be continued.) )
