Huangshan/ Yellow mountains/ Les montagnes jaunes

Version francaise plus bas You've all been to one of these chinese restaurants where the walls are covered with frescos of lonely pines in rugged and misty mountain landscapes... Too perfect to be true ? No ! They are all inspired by Huang Shan, the yellow mountains, 400 kms west of Shanghai. And to be honest, the paintings are far from giving justice to this fantastic place. The sceneries are totally amazing. Every 100 metres, you stop, have a look around, and you think "this is just brillia...

Beginning to Believe Peak

Xi'an was an interesting town, but the pollution is a killer. I've had a runny nose and sore throat ever since, which has led to a nasty cough.  The highlight was definitely bargaining for pro-Mao/Communist or 'Engrish' (how we refer to misspells and bad grammer on everything from american brand knock-offs to hilarious tourist signage) T-shirts. On our first night we ate in the Muslim quarter and found the streets were packed at 10pm+. Vendors had their carts right in the road along with hoar...

Climbing the Yellow Mountains

Today is an early start as we want to beat the crouds of chinese tourists up the mountain as they come in the bus load!! And that they did!! back to the begining first... Arranged to meet everyone in the lobby at 7.30, we then walked down the road (sticking right to the outside edge!!) to where the busses pass by so we can catch one to go to the gondola at Yun Gu Si which will save us about two hours of walking up steps. George had arranged it that at the gondola we went into the VIP area bec...

Huangshan (Yellow) Mountain

Huangshan (Yellow) Mountain

Huangshan Mountain is the most famous mountain in China. It is famed as being the most beautiful. There is an ancient Chinese saying that says "After visiting Huangshan Mountain, there is no reason to ever visit another mountain". It is said that each season is more beautiful than the one before. I have to say that they are absolutely correct. Huangshan Mountain is truly stunning. I'm sorry to say that nothing I could ever write, or any photo I took, could...

Trekking en montagne parmis la foule...

... sans garde-fou. J'ai eu la chienne a quelques endroits. Nous avons du attendre environ 1h30 dans une foule impatiente et qui pousse constamment pour prendre le Cable car de Yuping (cote ouest) pour nous rendre compte qu'il restait encore au moins 1-2 km de marches a descendre ensuite. Nathalie et moi avions les jambes mortes mais Pops l'athlete aurait descendu les quelques 7-8 km du cable car a pied si ce n'etait pour la foule qu'il deteste.<br><br>Au retour, nous avons ...

Yellow Mountain itself likes groups of giant granite. There are only dusts or derbies stuck between stones. Those pine tree manages to stick their root in such a tiny space and grow in a such elegant ways. Depending on the altitude where those pines grows, people naming differently. For those pines grow at the lower altitude ...

Sacred Mountains / Grandma Rumble

... long distance station at 7.00. A deep fog was covering the valley, you could only see silhouettes, everything was so silent and quiet. After 15 minutes of wait, the bus came, looking slightly small for the group that was waiting, and the misty scene turned in a new version of Royal Rumble (with weapons). Grandmas armed with massive bags and pilgrim staffs rushed to the entrance, and started to make their way through to the door, pushing, yelling ...

... prey. One of the touts was offering to drop us off one hour away from the eastern entrance but assured us that the area was very beautiful and the one hour walk was very enjoyable. Needless to say, we dodged that offer and used her english to ask how we could catch a bus but she pointed to the nearby taxis and called them a bus (like our minibus driver had done earlier). The taxi drivers entered and when we asked how much to the entrance, they said 50 Yuan but we ...
