Roving China In One Day

One of the many options thematic park is located in Shenzhen Splendid China. The park is divided into two parts, Folk Culture Village and Miniature China. Initially, these two separate parks. However, since 2003, they made one.

Price entered the park is 130 yuan (USD 200 thousand). Same with any other park in Shenzen, it took a full day if you want to surround this park.

Of these two parks, if you ask me, what’s interesting is Folk Culture Village. Down the “village”, we like are invited to peek into the daily life of various ethnic groups in China.

Each village has always displays the different activities. Architecture or building houses in each village was unique-unique. As a country of four seasons and the diverse geography, architecture also follows the seasons and locations.

In the Sui tribal villages, for example. Architect storey house and the roof are made from wood fibers. At first glance it reminded me of Bedouin homes I had visited several years ago. I witnessed several people complete with their local specialty apparel embroidering slippers and bag base.

Of about 57 villages in Folk Culture Village, the village of ethnic Tibetans and Wei was the most impressive. In the township is shown if the Tibetan ethnic Tibetan tradition who plays assorted bell and prayed before starting any activity. Their clothes and dance was unique. Dance routines usually show solidarity flick while spinning a long skirt.

Dance routines featuring different ethnic Tibetan, the flick that made long sleeves. In addition, their dance moves were somewhat more dynamic because many show jumping and rolling motion on the floor. The interior design of the pagoda (Lamasery) is also more colorful. Again the bell in the front row of the difference pagoda Tibet with the other.

While in the village of Wei, the dance of the tribe Tiashan treats as well as unique. Showing Uyghur music complete with drums and chanting of Arabic music and colorful costumes and amazing embroidery detail, it is difficult for me to not like their dance.

Moreover, the faces of those dancers that looks a bit “Caucasian” because the location of those areas that is close to Eastern Europe (Kazakhstan). Funny to see the face of Europe drummers drum, but his posture is not high.

Another interesting treat of Chinese Folk Village this is horse racing attraction featuring one of the dynastic histories of China. Unfortunately, I could not catch the story in this attraction as the narrator uses the Chinese language throughout the show. However, this is not too disturbing because the attractions in the super-wide racetrack that was pretty awesome.

One is the attraction acrobat horseman on a horse that ran with the super fast speed. Bodies seen this rider as light as feathers. Whether it’s female riders, as well as men. I also had thought it would lighten the science of the body such as the serial kung fu when I watched as a kid was right there.

Attractions such as these do not play every time. That’s why it’s worth asking in English map of the park at the time to enter the park.

By evening, some of the attractions cannot be viewed for free. There is an additional cost of 20 yuan per attractions (Oriental dress parade & Dance of the Dragon and Peacock). As with other amusement parks, food and drinks here are quite expensive. For a bowl of noodles, food kiosk at the most, for around 20 yuan.

Frankly, after watching the dance of the township Wei, my energy was gone. In fact, I just walk around half of the park. While it was late afternoon. Finally, I decided to surround the park and a half that I cannot explore the use of train services traveling with other visitors. This is certainly not free. One person charged 25 yuan.

After surrounding the Chinese mini park is by train, I was a little breathing space because the park is not as pretty as Folk Culture Village. For some reason I was amused to see Wall of China in miniature.

Frankly, this is eliminating the splendor of the wall itself. Likewise, field Tianmen or Forbidden Palace is a mainstay of tourists when visiting Beijing. However, that does not mean the park is not pretty. With various small buildings as an ornamental, this park is a beautiful park that is super wide.

At first glance, Tomohon Market in North Sulawesi looks like a regular traditional market. Some are selling chicken, vegetables, and various types of other kitchen needs. However, goes much further back into the market, there are stalls that sell animals that are not commonly eaten.

I must warn you; this market is not suitable for animal lovers!

Tomohon located in the district of Minahasa, about an hour from Manado. Tomohon become one of the attractions in North Sulawesi is due to the beautiful natural topography. The third largest city in the province is located between two mountains, the Mahawu and Lokon recently erupted.

One of the most interesting tourist attractions is the Market Faith Tomohon. I was lucky because a new visit this traditional market last Saturday, just a day before Passover. On that day, local residents flocked to go to the market to buy a variety of purposes feast.

The road to the market was stalled because of the many public transport and private cars are moving towards the market. So, what is interesting in this market?

In addition to selling a variety of everyday purposes, the market also sells various kinds of meat and animals. That’s where the unique, the animals are sold you will not find in other traditional markets in Indonesia. These animals, which are sold either alive or dead, commonly used as food for people around Tomohon.

The first animal I saw was a dead pig. Pigs are transported on a motorcycle by the merchant. Actually pork commonly sold everywhere, but only time I find a pig that is still intact. Size is very large.
Walked into a crowded market I saw a pile of other animals. Apparently it is a pile of mice that had been baked. Mice appears to be one of the merchandise sold enough, because many of the traders who sell these animals quite a lot.
Wild pigs are also sold in this market. In contrast to the large size pigs and cattle are white, the smaller the size of wild boar with black fur. Partially skinned, and some others are still intact.

There are also stalls that sell a large snake and it was slaughtered. Seen some buyers are waiting for snake meat is cut and weighed. Bats are also sold as a food ingredient, its wings already separated from his body.

Other animals also seem Tomohon sold in the market is a dog. There are dogs that are still alive – who would be killed by being hit by a merchant when a buyer. There are also dogs that have been baked and seasoned. These dogs were burned in one piece, so quite frankly I was a little horrified.
No less scary is the cat burns. According to the merchant, the cats have also been given a wide range of traditional spices. A cat’s tail is sold at Rp 100 thousand. Unlike dogs and rats the rise of the merchant, I only found one stall that sells cat.
According to local people who we hired as a driver, only pigs and dogs fairly commonly consumed in the region of North Sulawesi. Cat and mouse is a typical food ingredient Tomohon only. ”Most of the eating cat is young,” said Hok, our driver was.

For many people in the meat market scene is enough to make us shudder Tomohon, although also very interesting. Each ethnic and regional specialty does have different!

Business Travel Ethics

Get a job out of town or abroad is exciting because it could well walk. This task is not worked together or outing with a rah-rah, but an important meeting or seminar. How to utilize the trip without violating professional ethics?

Fulfill obligations
His name is also a business trip, of course there are tasks that you should carry out the trip. So the main thing you must do is perform the duties and responsibilities as well as possible. If the work is over, please enjoy the rest of the time for personal interests, and even then if still strong, because it’s often exhausting task.

Never precede personal affairs before the task is not only wrong because it harms your office, but also we. When the job is done well, and the boss’s office would not hesitate to send your next business trip, right?

Use of facilities
Generally, business travel providing better facilities than you normally use in a personal way. For example hotel rooms that you can be at least a four star class hotel or the best in the city. Indeed, you are entitled to use it as much as possible but that does not mean abuse alias should be acting like a moral hazard to spend the fridge in the room, use the laundry facilities to wash all kinds of objects, called out of town and even abroad for personal affairs, or watching pay-TV channels in the room.

In addition you must pay for not borne by the company, you look tacky and will be gossip ingredients work together. Be appropriate, provided the facility is to be used, but with a reasonable capacity.

Keeping the name of the company
A business trip means you represent the company and must maintain his good name. When the use of free time for personal business, keep your attitude did not act silly with much less illegal.

If you attend a meeting or seminar that involves people from many countries and companies, should not need to invite other participants if you want to spend the spare time to unusual places, such as the “red light district”. But you need to notify someone of your presence, just in case.

Extend your stay
If you intend to walk after the agency completed a series of events that need to extend your stay, prepare everything before leaving.
First, make sure your return ticket date is adjusted. Likewise for lodging checkout date. But if you want to move the lodge, inn message that you want and Arm yourself with information on how to reach it from the first hotel.

If you want to walk into town or a neighboring country, prepare the necessary documents such as passports, visas and local currency also made the trip itinerary and route them neatly so that the affairs of the tickets and accommodation can be settled before departure.

‘Ride’ Ethics
For people with a culture of ‘community’ like us, sometimes used for official travel arena of ‘ride’. It is valid only as long as not to interfere with work and do not overload or ride by office.

Room to ride, no matter if the carrying capacity alone while his room is available for two people. In such cases even the ride can be allotted breakfast if present.

If you want to ride a room already occupied by two people, it is okay as long as both people you know and do not mind. But you have to hire extra bed so as not to disturb them.

Another facility that allows for ride is transportation, particularly if provided official cars. But for a ride, got to know yourself, know your time and do not forget to tip the driver.
