Thousand steps Huashan - Part 1

UP, Dawn, and down again Carey Fink, U.S. Morning came too quickly, had to do very much, so to lose to waste time, it was not. I went outside and walked to the bus stop before my body is woke up to the end. Look at the Terracotta Warriors was interesting, although they are quickly bored. Statues are located in three separate pavilions. I slowly moved from the pavilion to pavilion, only sometimes Chinese people have asked me to take some pictures. Because we are in the most significant from an archaeological point of view of the place of China, and they want to be photographed with a white tourist Remains terracotta army in record time I finished my tour and went back to the bus stop. Here I was waiting for a monstrously slow vehicle, which was to take me to the station, where I sit on the next bus to Mount Huashan. I was lucky, I quickly found a bus to Huangshan, but had to wait another hour before all the seats were filled, and we moved. The trip took about six hours. Scenery is hard to be called spectacular, but for the most part they are quite beautiful. We arrived at the scene, and to my horror I saw that all the streets were flooded with throngs of local residents. All this was like how is the summer solstice in Fairbanks (a city in the U.S. state of Alaska, where every year a large-scale summer festival, ca. Perevi.). I got off the bus and headed towards the mountains. At the end of the street was a monastery. People around him were burning scented sticks and praying to various statues of Buddha. In the church I was the only tourist, so all surprised glances were focused only to me. On my way stood guard, because of which, I must say, I am afraid the procedure, because it seemed to me that I had violated some sacred rule of the temple. Thank God, nothing that I did not, he just wanted to be photographed with me. I agreed, and in turn asked him where the property is located on the lift hill (because they find it yourself was not so easy). Finally, I found the entrance, pay a fee to rise (about 120 yuan) and without any haste began to conquer the mountain. Beginning of the path I originally wanted to climb the eastern peak, spend the night there, meet the sunrise, to reflect on the meaning of life, and then go down the path that represents the path of wooden planks. However, all did not happen the way I planned A first look at Mount Huashan afar rise began with the impressive grade - not such a tough to scare those who dare to climb, but enough to once again think about what you are going to do. And, of course, after 20 minutes I wanted to use the toilet. Frustrated, I reproached myself for not having to use a toilet at the beginning. While I imagine that I will need to deviate from the main route and the search for suitable bushes, I suddenly came upon a group of tourists. They were standing right next to the toilets! Surprised to admire the characters who stood on the toilet door, I turned to the girls, tourist assistance. They pohihikali and motioned to follow them. What happened next forever changed my attitude to toilets. I have taken a turn for one of the girls and waited their turn. Finally, she came out and gestured that we can go. I walked into the room of cement, where the puddles were everywhere, and piles of excrement. The floor had two holes. One hole was occupied by a tourist, and the second was expecting me, and, figuratively speaking, a portion of my disgust. Not wanting to turn and flee in terror, I said to myself: "In a strange monastery ..." I take their rightful position, check again the correct location of the weight - I was behind him after a backpack, so I had to be especially careful! I looked disapprovingly at his neighbor, because she pyalilas on me (Yeah, right! For another, they say, watch out!), And began his own business. Of course, it's a little strange adventure could not but leave its imprint on my mood, but in the end, I felt relieved ... and the following 19 hours of toilets, I did not attend.
