Vi glemte helt at skrive hvad der er sket mellem Chengdu og Guangzhou. Det skal lige naevnes at Claus har vaeret daarlig de sidste to dage saa vi har mest set hotelvaerelset og dets TV (0-4 kanaler paa engelsk, primaert fra Hong Kong). Vi naede dog at se lidt af byen og skal forhaabenlig se mere, saa der kommer snart en 'entri' om byen her Efter E'mei Shan tog vi tilbage til Vi havde haabet paa en tur varmekilder efter E'mei Shan-turen, men de aabnede foerst kl. fem og vores bus koerte kl seks, saa efter en stor omgang velfortjent morgenmad [View Full Entry]
Our first afternoon in Kaili included a trip to the bird and flower market; it was a fascinating regional market with baskets of spices; cages of birds, exotic animals and reptiles; interesting plants; and piles of local fruits and vegetables. Unfortunately, we were caught in a torrential downpour and were not able to enjoy the market scene. The rain complicated the afternoon trip to one of the nearby minority villages, so we went to a regional museum that had minority dress and cultural artifacts on display. The most interesting parts of the museum, however, were the women artisans who were [View Full Entry]

We spent the day visiting some Miao villages in the southern part of China. Wow. Absolutely amazing and beautiful drive out to the rural parts. I was little uneasy about visiting the villages - when we arrived we got to watch a "traditional" Miao dance. All the participants were dressed in their tradiotnal gard. However, it felt very unauthentic. It was as if I was watching an exhibit at the Colombian Exhibition's Hall of People. I wanted to see the village, but I also felt like the people were put on display for us. However, the ride there on the bus [View Full Entry]

Xijiang - Fresh Air, Beautiful Town, People & Landscape = Happy. Rain = Landslides = Bad!

June 7 - 9 Morning on the train I was trying to figure out how far the bus station from the train station to catch a bus to Kaili. A girl was sitting across from me and I asked her if she knew which bus to take to Kaili. Now I can't remember if I asked in horrible chinese or in english. Probably in english but I would like to think I used chinese:) She told me she was goign to Kaili and that I could come with her. Sweet deal! She introduced herself as Rabbit. She was visiting friends [View Full Entry]

Meeting Myself in Chengyang I've met solo travellers, I've met travelling couples, families, newlyweds, sisters, brothers, best friends, tour groups, school trips and several undiscernably related travellers. In my opinion the option of travelling as a pair is optimal as it offers the best mix of freedom and security (this leads into concepts of "wingmen" and "package deals" but we wont go into these here now shall we), however, trying to find someone travelling in the same direction as myself has proven to be problematic. Recently, in Sanya that is, I met Felix and we have travell [View Full Entry]

Situated in the hills that surround Congjiang, the riverside Chinese equivalent of a one-horse town, Basha is perhaps the most well-known and popular Miao village in the state. In terms of scenery, Basha most certainly puts the former to shame. While still touched by the hand of development, evident in one or two of the photos I posted, this village, spread through the lush foothills of southeast Guizhou province, in comparison with more easily accessible roadside towns such as Congjiang, this Miao village retains the vast majority of its original character. Our local guide and village reside [View Full Entry]

Guizhou (population 8,940, 116) Our guide for Guizhou took us trekking to some of the more remote Miao ethnic minority villages. The Miao people are the largest minority groups in China and divided into branches, including: Black Hmong, White Hmong and Stripped Hmong depending on their dress. Here people believe that everything has a spirit that controls their destiny. So during disasters, an elder will perform ceremonies to drive out evil spirits. There are yearly memorial ceremonies are festivals celebrated in this region. While we were there, the sister festival was beginning, which is th [View Full Entry]

Zhenyuan - Praktische informatie
Asia » China » Guizhou » Zhenyuan
We logeerden in een Da jiudian op de straat die net ten Zuiden van de rivier ligt. Het hostel was de naam Da jiudian helemaal niet waard, en is zeker niet aan te bevelen. Op de kruising van de centrale brug en de Xinshen jie (oud stadsgedeelte) was een Binguan dat er veel beter uitzag. Dit is een handige plaats om te logeren: je kan zo het oude stadsgedeelte inwandelen, bent dichtbij 2 Internetbars en op wandelafstand van het busstation. De Internetbars bevinden zich op de straat ten zuiden van de rivier en zijn zichtbaar vanaf de centrale brug. Zoek tussen [View Full Entry]

Enkele bezoekjes in Zhenyuan.

Dinsdag 27 februari. Na het vertrek van Ria en Pieter gisteren, zal het voor de gewone reporter weer even wennen worden om voor de verslagen te zorgen. Ria en Pieter hadden er vaak hun handen aan vol gehad: tekst schrijven op de psion, daarna verbeteren op de Vaio en ten slotte de gepaste foto’s uitzoeken. De meeste foto's in hun verslagen zijn trouwens ook van hen afkomstig. Op een langdurige reis is het reistempo heel wat gezapiger en is er regelmatig 'vrije tijd'. Aangezien Ria en Pieter de drie weken zo goed mogelijk wilden gebruiken om zoveel mogelijk te zien, [View Full Entry]

Van Kaili via Guiyang naar Beijing.
Asia » China » Guizhou » Kaili
Maandag 26 februari 2007. “De provincie Guizhou is een gevaarlijk gebied, waar de barbaren leven!” verkondigen de Chinezen in Sjanghai. Toch durfde een Belgisch reiskwartet het aan om Guizhou te bezoeken. Ria Bollens en Pieter Michels lieten zich leiden door hun bekwame en ervaren gidsen Berna Ackermans en Wim Oldenhof! Onderweg veranderde het reisprogramma voortdurend. Het speelde losjesweg in op alle nieuwe informatie en weetjes van de laatste minuut over plaatselijke festivals en evenementen. Hier dan het uiteindelijk PROGRAMMA. Maandag 5 februari: [View Full Entry]
