How to Enjoy Riding the Bamboo Train in Battambang

Bamboo train, locally people called NORRY, became the popular transportation for foreigners to sightsee in the country side. It is located near the Battambang City around 7 Km from the city. Normally, the villagers living along or near the railway are traveling on this road by using the NORRY as supposed locally transportation because it is cheap and saving cost expense. Even it is spend time when there are some opposite directions of Bamboo train come joints in somewhere. When they travel with opposite directions, they always help each other, they carry the bamboo carriage from the railway and then push other one straight then they fix the other one again on railway. The travelers have to get off the carriage and waiting for the owner to fix the carriage and motor. They used small size of engine generator to push the carriage.

Each Bamboo train can use multi-transportation as same as car truck or taxi.

How to Travel to Visit Hua Shan Mountain in China

Talking about dangerous mountain but excellence and popular place for traveling in the world, , I would like to share the world pop and great place where is very beautiful for the tourists to travel there in the purpose of relax or rest during the summer vacation both family and individual. This top lace is located in China, called Hua Shan or Mount Hua. I am gathering the information for you all if you are interesting to visit there. So now I would like to show you the brief information about the great location in China as following.

Hua Shan or Mount Hua is the western great mountain ( it is the one of China’s Five Great Mountains in the World) and located near the city of Huayin in Shaanxi province, about 120 Km east of the bigger city of Xi’an from the great mountains. The south peak of the mountains is the highest peak of the mountains. The south peak is 2,154.9 m. This is one of the most dangerous in the world and this mountain has a long history of religious significance. The original finding the peak of mountain is three and the modern with high technology found 5 peaks including the highest peak in the south is 2,154.9m.

Traditionally, only the giant plateau with its summits to the south of the peak Wuyun Feng- Five Cloud Summit was called Taihua Shan (Great Flower Mountain). It could only be accessed through the ridge known as Canglong Ling (Dark Dragon Ridge) until a second trail was built in the 1980s to go around Canglong Ling. Three peaks were identified with respective summits: the East, South, and West peaks.

The East peak consists of four summits:

-          The highest summit is Zhaoyang Feng (Facing Yang Summit, i.e. the summit facing the sun). Its elevation is reported to be 2096.2 meters and its name is often used as the name for the whole East Peak.

-          To the east of Zhaoyang Feng is Shilou Feng (Stone Tower Summit)

-          To the south is Botai Feng ( Broad Terrace Summit)

-          To the west is Yunu Feng (Jade Maiden Summit). Today, Yunu Feng considered its own peak, most central on the mountain.

The South peak consists of three summits:

-          The highest summit is Luoyan Feng (Landing Goose Summit), with an elevation of 2154.9 meters.

-          To the east is Songgui Feng (Pines and Junipers Summit), and

-          To the west is Xiaozi Feng (Filial Son Summit).

The West peak has only one summit and it is known as Lianhua Feng or Furong Feng, both meaning Lotus Flower Summit. The elevation is 2082.6 meters.

With the development of new trail to Hua Shan in the 3rd through 5th century along the Hua Shan Gorge, the peak immediately to the north of Canglong Ling, Yuntai Feng (Cloud Terrace Peak), was identified as the North peak. It is the lowest of the five peaks with an elevation of 1614.9 meters.

The Hua Shan’s West Peak:

-          Elevation: 2,160 m

-          Location: Huayin Shaanxi

                                                                        -     Climbing is easiest route by using cable car

It is historical and dangerous mountain in the world. In China it is a one of top five great mountain in the world with the good views and attractive the visitor in anytime. I think it is great traveling where I like this hobby.
