Chapter 279: There will always be some loneliness

Below is a statue of Ganesha, the elephant's head is wide and a little silly, and a bunch of hands up and down in front of him, or making gestures or holding artifacts, it looks full of movement. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info walk through the caisson to look inside, and the aisle is lined with thick relief stone pillars on both sides. Perhaps because of the light, the stone pillars and statues in this temple are grayish and white, which is a bit dark and terrifying.

The pillars are covered with reliefs with religious content. These reliefs are very finely carved, and the figures in them are very vivid, and there is a feeling of coming out. The stone pillar on the second floor appears short and thick, and the relief above is a monster and the relief pattern hanging down vertically below is like a string of chains to lock the column body firmly, which is very powerful.

Nude statues of deities enshrined in temples. It is said to be the 8th of the 24 patriarchs of Jainism. Jainism has a canon for the worship of the god Celestial Clothes naked. In the main temple, there are not only stone pillars with reliefs, but also a multi-faceted relief wall in the middle, which is full of relief statues. These idols are in groups of several people, with a male god in the center and dancing fairies on either side.

These centuries-old reliefs are very well preserved and of great artistic value. Visiting here is not like looking at a temple, but like visiting a stone sculpture museum. Most of the statues of male gods are like this, wearing crowns on their heads, naked upper bodies, and lower dresses, with their waists tied up with fabric, a streamer hanging from their waists, and barefoot.

There are four arms, three of which hold the artifact, and the lower right hand is the palm of the hand flipped and drooping, a bit like the Buddha statue in Buddhism Shi "with the wish seal" in the hand naturally stretched down, the finger end hangs down, the palm outward, indicating that the Buddha can give sentient beings wish fulfillment, so that all sentient beings can pray for the wish can be fulfilled. This sign has the meaning of compassion.

There is an animal at the feet, such as this elephant at the feet, and there are cows, dogs, etc. The female statues next to the male god are all dancing, with a well-proportioned body shape, graceful shape, chest and hip twist, arms raised and dancing, posture variety, full of charm. The content of each group of statues changes, the male statue changes mainly in gestures, and the female statue changes in posture.

There is also a group of nude statues. The man holds a sword, a human head, and an upright barking dog at his feet. This is supposed to come from some Jain mythology. The small statue holding the lotus lantern has a strong dynamic shape on the legs. Women are a sight to behold everywhere, even in temples. Another Jain temple connected to the main temple.

The stone walls of this temple seem to be painted with a layer of yellow glaze, which is shiny and shiny, which is different from the gray tone of the main temple in front of it, and the hall here is full of gold. Golden dome. The stone statues on it are painted with gold as the main color, making it feel joyful.

The stone pillar is thick, and the column body is full of religious figures relief, which looks like a warm luster, like a huge Shoushan stone seal. I don't know which of the 24 patriarchs of Jainism is enshrined in this temple. Is this Mount Meru? There are a lot of gods sitting in the mountain. The overall look looks like a jade carving.

Marble carving: God riding an elephant. Jainism also believes in the Hindu god Ganesha, perhaps, because Jainism is derived from Brahmanism, which is also the source of Hinduism. Stone carving of a toad's head on the steps. Grinning when he was trampled on. This idol has a sunflower on its head, thick eyebrows and big eyes, strong chest muscles, a thin waist and a tall elephant at its feet.

There are some stone statues with monkey faces on both sides of the side. There are also some stone statues of male and female groups in this temple, and unlike the statues in the main temple above, the male statue in the main temple is the main deity, and the female statue is a dancing girl as a foil, while the female statue here leans next to the male statue, showing a close relationship between them, like husband and wife.

There is information that Jainism advocates abstinence, but I don't know what the meaning of such an image is. A group of stone statues of male and female gods. The content shown on this relief is supposed to be a religious story. The central figure sits cross-legged on a lotus flower under a tree, with his right hand raised, making a gesture of bending his index and middle fingers downward, implying some religious language.

A group of dancing goddesses on the right side of the statue of the fairy dance movements are exaggerated. Isn't Jainism advocating abstinence, why is the pair on the left secretly having a private meeting as if they were hiding from the god in front of them? It's not good, this pair was found by the god with a stick next to them in a private meeting, and being beaten is indispensable.

Floral reliefs on stone pillars. The flower in the middle is like a sword that pierces through everything. The promenade on the outside of the temple, with its many columns near and far, leads your gaze to the end ahead. It's like you've traveled through a golden time and space. The exterior walls of the temple are filled with golden reliefs of gods and fairies. I saw this "ghost" with a human head again.

The god on the stone pillar seemed to be holding a grenade in his hand. A god who is shrouded in light and shadow and rushes to appear. I saw the cute little fairy again, the left hand seemed to be playing with two walnuts, and the right hand was playing with two fingers—the whole thing that the old man of the city was playing with was pure nonsense from the Indian fairies hundreds of years ago.

This little fairy's dancing posture is so difficult to grasp. Isselmer Desert Camel Tour originally planned to participate in a well-known tourist project in Jincheng today - a day trip to the desert camel, probably because of the light business, yesterday when I passed by the door of a store specializing in the project, I wanted to go in to talk, but no one came out to greet and sell the lala.

In addition, I am a little tired from playing these days, and I can't keep up with the uncomfortable food and nutrition, so I am a little slack. What's more, after looking through the relevant information, I said that the desert here is not very good-looking, mostly barren beaches with some sparse shrubs, and there are very few real golden sand dunes, and it is said that riding a camel will make the back buttocks to protest, so I finally gave up.

Attached Jaiselmer Desert Camel Tour: Jaiselmer Desert Camel Tour: Camel riding experience in the desert, riding a camel to the desert to watch the sunset, desert camping and sleeping in the stars, desert picnic, bonfire dance party. Itinerary: Take a special car or travel agency jeep to the local desert home.

Then the tour guide will lead the camel caravan to the desert to experience the project. There are two destinations: 1. The village of Khuli, located about 48 kilometers southwest of Jaiselmer. 2. Sam, located 40 kilometers west of Jaiselmeer. Participation routes: 1. Entrust the desert tour franchise store in the castle, 2. Entrust the innkeeper to contact.

The fee includes camel rides, meals, mineral water and blankets. A small tip should be paid to the owner of the camel at the end of the day.

Note: The desert tour is an amusement project, and the desert environment you see cannot be compared to the Badain Jaran Desert, the Tarim Desert, and even some small deserts such as Dunhuang sand dunes. Not at all at the same level. But after all, it is exotic, the taste is different, it is best not to pay the full amount to the travel agency in a lump sum, and pay as little as possible to pay the deposit.

So that there is no room for contention in the event of a dispute. I didn't go to see the desert sunset, but I sat on this nearly 1,000-year-old castle and watched the last sunset at the last dusk in Jaiselmer, which was also quite romantic. As far as the eye can see, the desert on the outskirts of Jincheng is boundless, dotted with only clumps of low, drought-tolerant shrubs.

The setting sun, like a salted egg yolk, slowly descended in the distant twilight until it sank into the horizon. There was not a hint of wind and the sunset over the ancient castle was peaceful. At night, the shops in the castle begin to close, accompanied by orange street lamps walking along the stone path, and some locals who live outside the castle walk out of the castle one after another.

Overlooking the lights of the castle on the last night, three days of castle life will leave unforgettable memories. This is a small golden city that is willing to live in the vast desert and has no quarrel with the world, this is an ancient city that has been filtered by golden sand for nearly a thousand years, and this is a paradise full of exotic customs to escape the hustle and bustle of the world.

It is suitable for a small stay to recuperate, and for a long stay, you may feel lonely. A bright moon hangs high above the ancient castle. The silver moon is like a disk, and the golden castle is like a chain. Jayselmer Half-Day Tour → JodhpurJodhpur Half-Day Tour Today is the 12th day of the trip to India, departing Jaissermer by train in the morning to the next stop,

It is also the sixth stop of the trip - Jodhpur. In the afternoon, Jodhpur took a half-day trip to see the palace of Umaid Bhawang. Stay in Jodhpur. Jayselmer→ Jodhpur Train Xueluo and Liu Jingshu booked this train departure station is Jaiselmer via Jodhpur.

Jaiselmer is on his fifth train to India, and he knows how many miles it takes, and he no longer expects it to be on time. However, under no circumstances should you arrive at the station later than the departure time. The departure time on the ticket is 6:15, get up at 5 o'clock in the morning, say goodbye to the castle inn where you stayed for two nights, accompanied by orange street lights,

Accompanied by the sound of chanting inside and outside the castle at 5 o'clock in the morning from the loudspeakers, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu carried a huge hiking backpack on their backs, and walked down the old stone road in the narrow streets and alleys of the castle through the city gate, and finally, looked back at its towering figure at the exit of the castle and waved goodbye.

Take a tuk tuk to the train station. When I arrived at Jaiselmeier Station, I saw an electronic monitor showing that the departure time of the train that Xue Luo and Liu Jingshu was going to take was delayed to 7:10. For Indian trains, they have long been unfazed and insensitive, and they no longer believe that the first time they see the electronic display is the departure time. this

The train is booked in an ordinary non-air-conditioned sleeper car, so naturally you can't enter the passenger lounge, so you sit on the platform and wait. Fortunately, there was not too much delay, 8:30 am, more than two hours late departure. Sitting on a sleeper during the day, there is no sleepiness, the backpack is thrown on the high bunk without locking, and the desert outside the window is not beautiful.

A few people sat and chatted all the way, giggling and wasting time. Ordinary non-air-conditioned carriages, with iron bars on the windows, look a bit like being locked up in a prison cell when viewed from the outside. The windows were not closed tightly, so they simply opened to blow the wind, and once again "dusty faces, sideburns like frost". The doors are also open all the way, and sometimes the train travels very slowly.

You can really jump on and off, and there is no conductor anyway, but Xueluo doesn't dare, for fear that once he jumps, the train will suddenly shake his spirit and throw Xueluo down and run away. Indian trains are a strange thing, anything can happen. Xueluo and Liu Jingshu are going to Jodhpur between Jaipur and Jaiselmer,

The reason why it is designed to cross Jodhpur directly from Jaipur to Jaiselmer and then return to Jodhpur is because the next stop to Udaipur is from Jodhpur. The names of several cities in Rajasthan have a "boer" or "pur" at the end, which is pronounced as if it were a tongue twister.

In Hindi, it means city castle. Jodhpur Railway Station arrives in Jodhpur at 14:30 PM, a little more than two hours late. Fortunately, it was almost the two hours of the delay in the late departure, and there was no further delay on the way. Tickets for Xueluo and Liu Jingshu were bought at Jodhpur Railway Station,

But its previous stop, the train station, is closer to the old city and the hotel booked by Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, where Xueluo and Liu Jingshu got off early. The station is small, with only two platforms. The entrance and exit is a corridor, the building is very simple, anyway, the railway station in India has free access and does not need to set up ticket gates.

It doesn't matter if you have a ticket or not. It's still hot here, so you can wear short sleeves. The bright red triangular plum is in full bloom. Xueluo and Liu Jingshu set aside three days for this trip in Jodhpur. The Blue City of Jodhpur Jodhpur is located on the southern edge of the Thar Desert in western India.

The distance between Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan, and the border city of Jaiselmer is about 300 kilometers each. The second largest city in Rajasthan. The city was founded in 1459 by Rajothaki, a Rajput tribe of the Rasore people, as the capital of a small state. The entire Old Town is surrounded by a 10-kilometer-long wall with 8 gates.

The most famous building and most important attraction in the city is the huge castle of Merangar, located on a steep rock in the north of the city. Because the exterior walls of many houses in the city are painted sky blue, it has earned the reputation of "Blue City" and has become one of the famous "Four Colors of Rajasthan".

The landmark building in the center of JodhpurJodhpur is the distribution map of the attractions in the whole area of Jodhpur Copyright Jodhpur main city scenic spots distribution map copyright Jodhpur walked out of the railway station, there were some tuk-tuks waiting for business at the door, and the uncle grabbed Xueluo and Liu Jingshu with a price of 100. Don't underestimate this tuk-tuk.

It can be loaded with 4 adults with Xueluo and Liu Jingshu at one time, along with all the luggage. The straight-line distance from the train station to the hotel booked by Xueluo and Liu Jingshu is about 500 meters, and the distance between 1~2 kilometers by car. Before getting into the car, Xueluo showed the driver's uncle the information and location map of the hotel, and he said that there was no problem.

Who knows, after getting on the road, he didn't know whether he was really lost or fake, so he pulled Xueluo and Liu Jingshu around the neighborhood near the hotel, and chatted at Xueluo and Liu Jingshu while going around. According to Xueluo's experience, this is a foreshadowing before wanting to ask for more fares.
