Chapter 331: The Wind in That Second

And walking in the garden are not only guests, but also dozens of free-range peacocks. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info the snow falling in the hotel's huge garden and Liu Jingshu saw more peacocks than in the hotel! The location where the hotel was once the king's hunting ground, and the temple that the king visited before every hunting was also preserved as a relic and attraction in the hotel.

Today, the hotel is also stocked with local Indian wildlife, as if the hunting scene of the kings of yesteryear has been restored. There are also volleyball courts, futsal pitches and golf putting greens in the garden, which is a bit of an overstatement. The lights and water features of the hotel are also very beautiful at nightfall. After dinner, when I returned to my room, the waiter had already opened the turndown and gave me a small gift.

But I don't remember what snow fell, and the hotel at night seemed to be really a palace. If you're in Udaipur, don't miss this hotel! Mumbai has a connecting flight to Singapore, and Mumbai is the last stop on Xueluo and Liu Jingshu's trip to India. Because going to Delhi is not very attractive to Xueluo and Liu Jingshu.

Naturally, there is no expectation for Mumbai. Sure enough, there was no expectation and no disappointment, when Xueluo and Liu Jingshu left Mumbai, they felt that this place was actually not bad, and they could even stay for a few more days, because there were many places where Xueluo and Liu Jingshu didn't have time to go! I watched a sunset on the flight from Udaipur to Mumbai. Through the window within 10 minutes before the plane lands.

You'll see slums, the biggest of which is Dharavi, the second largest slum in the world and the largest in Asia, and of course Xueluo and Liu Jingshu are not interested in it. Mumbai India GateMumbai India Gate, located at Apollo Pier on the Indian Ocean coast at the southern end of the city, was built in 1911 to commemorate the visit of King George V and Queen Mary of the United Kingdom.

In 1948, when India became independent, British troops left Mumbai from here. Today, it's a city landmark, and although it's a free attraction, you'll still have to go through security to enter the Gateway of India area. The square in front of India Gate in Mumbai is always crowded, and it's impossible to take a picture of no one.

So when the snow falls, wait patiently for the pigeons to flock and fly, and use the pigeons to block the crowd, you can also use this scheming method. The story of the Taj Mahal Palace at Mumbai's India Gate Arabian Sea spends most of the time in the streets of the fortified area, seeing European-style buildings built by the British during the colonial period in the 18th century.

These beautiful buildings are still very beautiful today, and you can imagine how spectacular they stood on the streets of that time more than 100 years ago. The High Court of Mumbai, a distinctive building that combines European Baroque and Mughal styles. Elphinstone College, India's earliest institution of higher education.

David Sassoon Library. Walking in the fortified area, if you don't look closely, it seems to be walking on the streets of Europe. The University of Mumbai Fortress Branch, the buildings on the campus are very beautiful, but unfortunately I couldn't go in to visit. I can feel that Britain really used to build India as its own son! The Mumbai Laundry for 1,000 people is a large open-air laundry.

Boasting the world's largest outdoor laundry, with more than 800 pools, laundry flocks from hotels and hospitals throughout Mumbai, where hundreds of laundry workers (known locally as they are called) diligently hand wash their seemingly endless laundry. The image of the Mumbai laundry is perhaps the best example of the wealth gap in Mumbai and India.

But this is not the case in any fast-growing country. The Mumbai laundry is not an attraction in the first place, but there are so many people who come to visit that people start to charge admission fees at the door of the laundry, and the people around the laundry don't seem to be very friendly. Mumbai Municipal CorporationMumbai Municipal Corporation It was not dark.

The Mumbai Municipal Corporation has been lit up and looks beautiful on the streets. Diagonally opposite the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus is Mumbai's most famous building, the World Heritage Site, the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, which used to be known as the Victoria Terminus.

Chhatrapati Shivaji TerminusChhatrapati Shivaji Terminus was built in 1878 and lasted more than ten years, the whole building is covered with exquisite stone carvings and stone carvings, condensing the essence of the 19th century Eastern and Western architectural culture, ancient and elegant, beautiful and luxurious, with its striking stone cupola, towers, pointed arches and irregular ground design.

All are close to traditional Indian palace architecture. British architects and Indian craftsmen collaborated to blend Indian architectural traditions to create a unique new style in Mumbai, an outstanding example of the intersection of two cultures. The Chhatrapati Shivaji terminus has endured a century and a half of vicissitudes, although the building has been neglected under Indian rule.

It is full of traces of time, but it still looks shining and is still the largest and busiest railway station in Mumbai and all of India. It is also the filming location for the reunion of the heroes and heroines in the movie "Slumdog Millionaire" at the train station. Mumbai must settle for this Italian restaurant, which is called Italia, for Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, who are not used to Indian flavors.

This restaurant is undoubtedly the best in a month, the owner of the restaurant is Italian, although it is also a vegetarian restaurant and there is no meat to eat, but the products produced here and Xueluo and Liu Jingshu have eaten for three days in a row, and they will never forget. MumbaiMumbai New Delhi was on his way to the airport when the car stopped at an intersection and a beggar walked out of the window.

Holding the disfigured child in one hand and resting the other on the window, he begged for alms in the car. I didn't have time to take the camera, so Xueluo filmed this scene with her mobile phone, and inadvertently saluted the master! What is even more coincidental is that this woman is actually wearing a red dress! Of course, Xueluo is only photographing the shape, and the atmosphere and artistic conception are far behind! When Xueluo took a taxi across the seaside boulevard, Xueluo regretted that he didn't have time to walk here and stroll along the coastline.

Look out over the city and see the lights of the city. Of course, Xueluo also regretted not staying at the hotel for one night, not taking a look at the world's most expensive homes and collage houses. And all this has to be left to the next time I don't know what to do. Why dress yourself up in pink, because the most unique and charming city in Rajasthan was built by the Rajput people.

And in their color language, pink represents hospitality. Therefore, the king at that time made a decree that all the houses in the city should be painted pink, and this decree is said to have been in effect to this day. It is precisely because of the pink bar that the city exudes a warm and soft temperament. Took a taxi from the airport to the hotel.

Rs 500, which is actually very cheap. But then I found out that they would shout 500 rupees no matter where they went, and in fact, they could bargain with them, and it was also very good to bargain. Xueluo and Liu Jingshu's hotel is just outside the old city and is a beautiful hotel. I arrived less than six o'clock in the morning, and I felt a little cold, and I naively thought that I would bring less clothes.

It's not as hot as I imagined. After arriving at the old town, you will finally see that the city has a pink color, and then you will find on the road that in addition to cars, motorcycles, there are also cows, sheep, and even people riding camels on the road. After arriving at the hotel, I immediately felt that the inside and outside of the hotel were simply two places.

The hotel was relatively clean. Xueluo and Liu Jingshu arrived at the hotel at 8 o'clock, and thought that they could only put a luggage and go out for a walk and come back, but they didn't expect that there was a vacant room, so they checked in smoothly. After washing and changing clothes, the snow falls and the real journey of autumn begins. On the last few hotel pictures, the hotels outside the old city are about more than 400 in one night.

Xueluo and Liu Jingshu took a taxi to the attractions in the old city, and the tuk-tuk asked for 300 rupees, and Xueluo and Liu Jingshu seemed to have negotiated to 100 rupees. The Tutu driver also kept chatting with Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, and was so excited that he told Xueluo and Liu Jingshu. At that time, there was no Divine Comedy, and if you want to put it aside now, Xueluo will definitely reply to him.

I heard that the Indians have a very deep routine haha, and sure enough, the ultimate purpose of the sudden driver's chat is to hope that Xueluo and Liu Jingshu will charter his car today. By the way, the driver's gesture is equivalent to the meaning of a car turning its turning lights! Xueluo thought it was funny, and then took more than 20 photos to capture it.

Xueluo and Liu Jingshu bought a pass first, which cost 1,000 rupees. (Approx. 100 RMB) (Pass) Adult/: 1000 valid for 2 days at Amber Fort, Tiger Castle, Palace of the Winds, Jantamanta Observatory and three gardens. When you buy a ticket, it's also a small black house, and you can only see a pair of black hands giving you tickets haha.

Then the ticket is a piece of paper!【Observatory】This is the "genius prince" Jay Singh II, and the Indian word means measuring instrument, which is a place used by ancient Indians to observe celestial phenomena and predict affairs. Xueluo personally thinks that the observatory is boring. On the way, I saw an aunt cleaning and asked if I could shoot her?

She nodded, so Xueluo and Liu Jingshu filmed her, but after the shooting, she asked Xueluo and Liu Jingshu for money, hey. Instantly, I felt that it was really a place with a very deep routine, and Xueluo felt that this sentence was quite reasonable! The Indians I met later were very good, and enthusiastically let Xueluo take a photo with Liu Jingshu, or take a picture of them.

After going to the observatory, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu went to a very beautiful place - the City Palace. When I came out of the observatory and was about to go to the next place, I saw a group of students who looked like high school students lining up to enter the observatory. When they saw Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, they happily shook their arms to say hello! Then Xueluo wanted to pick up the camera to record this moment.

It turned out that several female students also picked up their mobile phones to take pictures of the snow falling haha. There are also many male students who are very excited to say to the snow fall, shoot the snow fall, and pose for the camera with their hands dancing. At that moment, I once again believed in the word face born from the heart. The simplicity and beauty of these students made Xueluo let go of her previous prejudices and felt warm in her heart.

Before coming to India, Xueluo had heard from a friend that Indians liked the Dragon Country people very much, and it was also out of curiosity about the faces of the Dragon Country, so they did not shy away from expressing this excitement. Xueluo thinks that this is the difference between Dragon Country students and Indian students, Dragon Country students are more reserved and shy, and Indian students are very free and bold.

If they like you, they'll come straight to you and take pictures or something. Sure enough, the women of the Dragon Kingdom have a sense of stardom in India, and the faces of Xueluo and Liu Jingshu are what they like, and it may be because they envy the whiter skin of the Dragon Country people. Located in the heart of the old city, it is one of the best-preserved monuments in India.

The Royal Palace consists of several palaces and is architecturally lavish. This is the best place to take a closer look, the architecture is beautiful, and the decoration of the white marble sculptures is breathtaking. It is not only a relic, but also a realistic museum, which collects clothes, carpets, weapons, artworks, etc. left by the princes and nobles, and is divided into several exhibition halls.

It is of great historical and artistic value, and it is a place to witness the long history of India. Today, the Maharajai of Jaipur still lives in the palace and part of the area has been converted into a museum where you can experience the luxury of the maharaja's life. Tickets are not included in the pass and are bought separately for INR 500. After entering the city palace, I found that it was really beautiful.

There are some reasons why it compares to the previous observatory. One of the most beautiful places in the city palace is the four gates in the inner courtyard that represent the four seasons: they are the Peacock Gate for autumn, the Lotus Gate for summer, the Green Gate for spring, and the Rose Gate for winter.

It's a pity that the Peacock Gate is the gate to enter, there are always a lot of people, and there is no one to photograph. The green door here is the cover of the book on Lonely Planet North India! It's so hot in India, so I go to a café in the city palace to sit down for a drink of water and air conditioning. I also met Autumn's friends at the City Palace.

Then Xueluo and Liu Jingshu went out of the city palace together, planning to charter a bus to Tiger Fort and Amber Fort. The four of them looked for a lot of cars, and then shouted that the price was very high, and Xueluo and Liu Jingshu bargained for more than 20 minutes. Halfway through, I saw that these snacks were sold, and this shrimp chip-like thing was a big piece. The legendary delicious banana sorbet.

It is worth mentioning that the circle of paper enclosed next to the banana sorbet is the kind of paper on which the math problems are printed. Hahaha and this thing, 50 rupees is quite expensive, it feels like a bunch of things plus all kinds of spices. Then I got in the car and got ready to go to Tiger Fort. Stopping to buy water on the way, Xueluo didn't dare to buy water here to drink water at first.

Because I heard that many children in India usually go to pick up bottles, and then deliver the water in and sell it directly. But the water here is really cheap, a large bottle is only 20 rupees (2 yuan). Xueluo and Liu Jingshu arrived at the highest place at noon, when it was the hottest at noon, Tiger Fort. Tiger Fort: Tiger Castle is also called.

Perched on a hill behind the Amber Fort, the castle is a steep and rugged military defense that guards the city-state of Ammer, which has not been captured for hundreds of years, and houses a reservoir, a residential area, a theater, and the world's largest wheeled cannon. The castle also houses an arsenal and museum with a range of weapons and royal supplies on display.

Includes some interesting photographs, Jaygar's map, spittoon, and round solitaire from the 18th century. Admission: INR 75 for foreigners, INR 25 for Indians, free entry with a ticket to the City Palace. Tiger Fort is the highest place, so you can overlook the whole city from here.
