Han Qi has been thinking about the piece of gold in his mind, but he is not the most money-obsessed in the team. Obviously, Zhou Zhou is the same as him. She is even more excited than Han Qi, and she can't stop discussing the piece of gold she just saw with Allen.
turquoise.
"Wow, did you see it? It's such a big piece..." She put her hands together to exaggerate the size of the turquoise stone. Obviously, no matter how the two fingers of one hand were pinched together, it was not what she had in mind.
That one is turquoise.
It was so pitiful that the biggest gem she had ever seen was only as big as a thumbnail. Today she really saw the world.
Allen also nodded happily, his sickly face became much rosier.
"Yes, yes, and turquoise grows from the elephant's head."
"An elephant's head?"
Zhou Zhou recalled in silence, does turquoise grow from the elephant's head? Why don't I remember?
Allen is very sure of his thoughts: "Well, haven't you noticed, right in front of the fifth spiritual pagoda..."
"Isn't that a relic?"
"Oh? Is it a relic?"
Walking in front of them is a group of young people - around 20 years old are called young people, and 30 to 40 are considered promising young people, so Xingkong, his wife Hongchen, and individual guests are all young people, and the young 26-year-old program
Yuan Douzi was gathering around the two girls behind to show his courtesy, while Han Qi was walking next to Xing Kong, listening to their chat.
Hongchen didn’t like this place very much and said:
"Actually, I like the monks here very much. They are very devout in their beliefs, and they live and eat here every day and take care of the Buddha statues. It seems that they have a certain degree of communication with the Buddha and have a feeling of being able to have a dialogue. I like this very much, but
I don’t have a very deep understanding of some of their teachings, and I always feel that when you are in trouble, your faith is not so pure.”
Han Qi said: "It can only be said that this is different from our mainland. Different places have different customs. We can't say who is right and who is wrong. We can only say that it is different, but it is really shocking."
The piety of the monks here is shocked, as well as the low-key luxury here.
Just looking at the appearance, you would never realize how much the things inside are worth. The two hundred yuan ticket to visit here is quite worth it.
The main thing is to open your eyes.
juvenile.
You will never see three thousand kilograms of gold in your lifetime, right? You won't see gems that require two hands to draw, right? Trees of gold, coral trees, whatever you can think of, and things you can't think of, are like fairy tale novels
The rare treasures that can only be found inside are all in this ancient palace that only seems to have a sense of history.
Xingkong looked at Han Qi's expression and said with a smile: "I feel like you are more shocked than us."
joke.
You all come from big cities and have seen the big world. I am just a college student from a rural town. This is the first time I have seen such a shocking thing.
After talking about Han Qi, the banker continued to talk about the trivia about the Potala Palace: "I heard someone say before that selling all the treasures in the Potala Palace would feed the 1.4 billion people in our country for six to seven years.
"
"You understand." Hongchen pinched Xingkong and said coquettishly, "You know so much, but you asked us to order those things yesterday, and none of them were delicious."
"Hahaha..." Xingkong rubbed his head and giggled.
He had never eaten this dish before, and didn't he remind them not to order it?
"It's not just five or six years." The individual tourists shook their heads and said with emotion, "Have you seen the nine eyes on the wall? There are hundreds of thousands of them, and they are all over the ground here, not to mention those golden Buddhas.
Pagoda Buddha statue, just a little bit of these small decorations is enough to buy an apartment.”
After walking out of the Potala Palace, Han Qi still recalled the words of individual tourists.
So just a few big beads can buy a house?
Given the price of goods in their town, I'm afraid this one pearl can't be exchanged for two apartments and one storefront. It can probably save some money for decoration. With these things, I won't have to worry about it for the rest of my life.
Then I thought about how I only had less than 4,000 yuan left for my trip.
Sigh, it’s really infuriating to compare people to each other.
The weather was surprisingly good when we came out. The nearby Potala Palace was majestic and majestic, the sky was blue, and the sunlight shone on the floor tiles of Potala Palace Square. It was a good time to take portraits.
Photography is also called the technology of light and shadow. As long as the light is good-looking, it can cover up countless flaws in the portrait.
Anyone who often takes photos knows this, and most of these people are travel experts who travel around the country. The photography skills they have accumulated over the years are much better than Han Qi's. Everyone spent an hour staying in the square.
I took a lot of beautiful photos.
Han Qi also consulted with them and felt that he had made progress again.
Went to Jokhang Temple in the afternoon.
There is a popular saying among the people of Lhasa that "first there was the Jokhang Temple, and then there was the city of Lhasa" because the Jokhang Temple not only occupies the center of Lhasa geographically, it is also the central point in terms of social life.
The circle surrounding the Buddha statue in the center of the Jokhang Temple is called the 'Nangkor', and the circle surrounding the outer wall of the Jokhang Temple is called the 'Bakkor'. Han Qi wanted to come here yesterday to visit and have dinner by the way.
The more I learn about it, the more I realize that there are many circles in Tibetan life.
I have talked a lot about this and that. If we enlarge the scope a little further, with the Jokhang Temple as the center, the large circle including the Potala Palace, Yaowang Mountain, and Ramoche Temple is called the "Lin Kuo".
.The three rings from the inside to the outside are the routes used by Tibetans to perform prayer turning ceremonies.
What impressed Han Qi most in the Jokhang Temple was a mural with a length of more than a kilometer, called "Princess Wencheng's Entry into Tibet". This thing can be used as a treasure in any museum in the country.
The difficulty of production and its historical significance are unmatched by many so-called national treasures.
After seeing the Jokhang Temple, we went out to visit Barkhor Street.
The shops here are all white, and devout Tibetan people can often be seen spinning prayer wheels on the streets, but they always walk clockwise, which also causes tourists visiting Barkhor Street to walk with them.
in the same direction.
There are a dazzling array of products on both sides of the street, including ethnic handicrafts and souvenirs. You can bargain when selling things. Zhou Zhou bought a small prayer wheel for 5 yuan each. Everyone bought a lot and brought this thing back.
It is suitable for sending to relatives and friends at home.
The price is not expensive and the meaning is quite good.
Douzi adjusted his glasses and looked like he understood.
"Isn't this Panjia Street?"
"Yeah, when you put it that way, it's a bit similar, but the style is different."
"Of course the style is different. In Yanjing City, vendors from all over the country bring their own languages. They are used to the past. It is a hodgepodge of second-hand markets. And Tibet is a travel city. No matter where people come here, they will
Otherwise, how can we do business with tourists if we blend in with the style here?”
Zhou Zhou was spinning the small prayer wheel he just bought and concluded: "The common point is... they all treat tourists like pigs to be slaughtered."
