Beijing...


"Tuntutlah science through to China." The words I often hear or read either in recitation or in the articles and it was true. Muhhammad Prophet said this on 14 centuries ago, which means China at that time there during the Tang Dynasty 618 AD-907M (source Wikipedia).

First to Beijing in early November, was really cold, dikisaran temperature 0-13 degrees Celsius. But even good for a walk without feel tired, especially seeing the girls are fashionable Beijing-fashionable.

Common sight in Beijing to see his ladies wear leather boots with thick fur on the collar of his jacket. And without hesitate also ride my bike to work.

Despite the cloudy and gloomy impression, but the atmosphere ahead of the winter with so many leaves change color makes the scenery along the roads and parks - the park is very beautiful. Many of the things I admire is Chinese government gives high attention to the beauty of city parks, ancient trees and ancient looking after and supported so as not broken and dead.

Before leaving for Beijing I have to get ready with a stack of information about this city, from the places required in visit to Restaurant / food must taste. Reference Om Bondan about Muslim restaurant in Xuan Wu district is very much less detail I noticed references to the restaurant on the road Tu Lu Fan Niu Ji.

After the tired down the Tiananmen, Forbidden City, and Performance Art Center (The Egg), start my search for Tu Lu Fan Restaurant. With a rumbling stomach and head a bit dizzy, because breakfast at the hotel can only eat plain porridge, bread and fruits (because others nga kosher or are unsure of the halalannya).

Because this is the first time to China (Beijing) so I chose to walk, because it looks at the map cuman blocked a few blocks away ... .... But obviously I underestimated the scale, between the map and in fact much really ... .. ... .1 walah blocks in Beijing map ... that much really ... .... Thinking they could meet KFC or McDonald's, it was not ... .. I terusin road instead nemu Liulichang street, street art gallery. This place really cool, it's good that we often find a way unexpected. Left-right building using centuries old classical Chinese.

Unfortunately when I came TuLuFan at 15.00, the restaurant was not open yet, it turns out at oprasionalnya afternoon at 17:00, then guns hurts me to the mosque first Niu JI which is only 300m, for all ashar dhuhur.

The mosque is 900 years old, is beautiful and warm inside because the thick carpeted. Jama'ah that prayers are already grandparents, and even then only one rows (lines).

In the mosque was once a quiet atmosphere, already 3 days I think this prayer nga know lor south, where the direction where the Monas, now just feel afdol .... Facing the direction correctly.

Perhaps the first mosque in Semarang also berasitektur Sampokong same, like the temple with a striking red color and attractive. Minaretnya any such distinctive and very beautiful temple with a detail that is preserved.

After dhuhur and Asr, it turns out the old flowers, why have entered maghrib time, the distance between Asr to maghrib cuman 1 hour, happened immediately wrote all afternoon prayer. 17:30 hours I had just moved to the house to eat Tu Lu Fan,

Unfortunately there are some foods that nga sempet in the photo because it was crazy lapernya heheheh ... Recommendations ... bener Om Bondan Winarno nyussss really mak ... .... Kebabs melt in his mouth ... .. mild soup and fresh mushrooms, such as herb sauce.

It all tips for fellow Muslims, do not be afraid to Beijing to look for halal food, pretty easy really ....

Entrance wrote to Xuan Wu district, road Niu Ji. Benchmark the easiest of Tian An Men Square, take bus No. 10 and stopped at the stop Niuji, then all the way niuji many Muslims and some supermarkets Restaurant Muslims, so do not hesitate to consume them. The food is festive, colorful and definitely kosher thoyiban lan. Generally using goat meat.

Edge-hawker hawker jalanpun no less interesting, but since then I doubt kehalalannya cuman photographs alone .... Cuman make make very interested ... heheheheh ....

It was four days in Beijing less, nga all interesting things can be visited. On the sidelines of a narrow time, my sister-mas Pujo sempet sempetnya want to buy a folding bike. Prices were cheap-cheap bike with a pretty good quality. Range hargnya if dirupiahkan between 500-800 yuan (1 yuan = 1700) the more light the more expensive. Carrying 12 million Beijing residents have bicycles.


For fans of Kho Ping Ho kungfu films colossal or china, forbidden City, enough to give an idea of ​​how magnificent the ancient Chinese empire. And do not forget to ming Tomb, the tomb of Emperor Yong Le (Zhu De) Emperor Ming to 3 is touted as the most brilliant Emperor of the Ming dynasty and is mentioned in many kungfu.

Cuman one that might be a bit tedious is the architecture of ancient buildings and relics, relics almost the same, so if the photos with the background forbidden City, Summer Palace, or garden gazebo, small garden is almost the same yes, hard membedakan.Kayaknya still many who want to but enough is told so first info ...

GREAT WALL China


Great Wall of China or the Great Wall of China (Traditional Chinese: 长城; Simplified Chinese: 长城; pinyin: Chángchéng), also known in China as the Great Wall Along the 10,000 Li ¹ (万里长城; 万里长城; Wanli Chángchéng) is the longest building ever built by humans, is located in the People's Republic of China.

Its length is 6400 kilometers (from the area Sanhai Pass in the east to Lop Nur in the west) and the height of 8 meters in order to prevent the incursion of North Mongoldari nation at that time. The width of the top 5 m, while the bottom width of 8 m. Every 180-270 m made a kind of watchtower. High watchtower is 11-12 m.

To make this giant wall, it could take hundreds of years at the time of the various emperors. Initially, Qin Shi-huang is estimated that commence construction of the wall, but according to the research literature, history and records, the wall was already made before the Qin Dynasty stand, precisely was first built in Warring States Period. Emperor Qin Shi-huang continue development and strengthening of the wall that was built earlier.

After the death of Qin Shi-huang, making this wall had been halted and only resumed in Sui Dynasty, the last resumed again at the time of the Ming Dynasty. Form the Great Wall, which we now see is the result of development of the Sun earlier era. The inside of the wall containing soil mixed with bricks and rocks. The top was made the main road to the Chinese cavalry.


Historical development of the Great Wall of China can be traced to the 9th century BC. At that time, the Chinese government in the middle connecting the castle and the fire tower which is a military checkpoint on the border into one long wall in order to fend off ethnic groups from northern China. Until the Chunqiu Period and Warring States, the battle raged on between the countries confront each other principality.

Those countries for its own defenses in a row to build a big wall on the hill and mountain, located on the border. In the year 221 BC, Emperor Qinshihuang unify China. After that, Emperor Qinshihuang ordered that the walls built by various countries principality was spliced ​​into a big wall as fortifications to fend off cavalry attacks nomadic ethnic groups in Mongolia grassland of north China.

Great Wall at that time reached 5,000 kilometers in length. The Great Wall of coordination after the collapse of the Qin Dynasty Han extended to 10 thousand miles more. In the history of 2000 years ago, the ruler at various times never stop building the Great Wall so that the total length reached 50 thousand kilometers, enough to orbit the earth once more.

Great Wall which we call the great wall are now mostly built in the Ming Dynasty which ruled between the years 1368 and 1644. Stems from the western tip of Jiayu Fortress in West China's Gansu Province and the eastern tip of the Yalu River is situated on the edge of Northeast China's Liaoning Province after passing through 9 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions along the 7300 kilometers, or equal to 14 thousand li of China. Thus, the Great Wall is known as the "long wall 10 thousand li" in Chinese.

As a stronghold of defense, the Great Wall was built by following the course of mountain peaks. Passed very complicated topography, among others, Gurung sand, grassland and marsh. To adjust to its topography, the construction of the Great Wall of implementing the structure implemented extraordinary and different. All this shows the intelligence of the ancestors of Chinese nation.

Great Wall winding along the mountain peaks mamanjang almost impossible to be conquered by enemies in ancient times because of the mountains and the slopes on which the wall was too steep to climb.


The Great Wall was built with big stones inserted in the soil and rock fragments. Height of approximately 10 meters and a width of approximately 5 meters, enough for 4 horses running side by side. Thus, it is very easy to maneuver troops and transporting food and weapons. On the side of the wall was built doors and stairs to climb down.

Great Wall connected with the castle or tower fire every sector, where the stored weapons and food supplies. Fortress and the fire tower was used as a resting place for soldiers in peace time and is a stronghold of defense to ward off enemy attacks during the war. Also, once known to the enemy's aggression, the fire tower will be lit the fire at night and smoke during the day so that news of an enemy attack could spread throughout the country in the near future.

In the important sector of the Great Wall, such as strategic path, the crack of the mountain and sea borders of the mountain with a large gate is usually constructed loft. The attic-loft that gate not only looks magnificent, but also reflects the brilliant art of the ancient Chinese architecture. Now some of the attic that gate has been turned into a tourist attraction, for example attic Shanhaiguan Gate at the east end of the Great Wall, dubbed as China's number one gate attic and attic Juyongguan Gate of the Great Wall at Badaling sector around Beijing.

Functions of the Great Wall as military fortifications are now no longer exists, but the beauty of its architecture remains very impressive.

The beauty of the Great Wall is reflected in the grandeur, power and greatness. Remove the view from a place far to the Great Wall, the huge high wall that extends for thousands of miles it looked like a gigantic dragon-geliut menggeliang down the mountain, when viewed from close range, then the wall was filled with art attraction with diverse architecture.

The Great Wall is a hard-earned sweat and blood soaked and impregnated wit the Chinese people in ancient times. How heavy construction projects on the ancient Great Wall that is still low earning power is hard to imagine.

Mount Everest the highest mountain in the World


Mount Everest or Mount Everest is also called Chomolungma or Qomolangma (Tibetan) or Sagarmatha (Nepali Language) is the world's tallest mountain when measured from the peak height above sea hinggda, which means as high as 8.848 meters or 29.029 highway. Mountain which is part of the Himalayas is located on the border antarara Sagarmatha Zone, Nepal and Tibet, China.

This mountain get their English name from the name of Sir George Everest. This name was given by Sir Andrew Waugh, the surveyor-general British India, the successor of Everest.

At the end of 2007 climbing season, has done countless 3.679 2.436 ascent to the summit by a private person, and there have been 210 deaths on the mountain because the condition is very difficult and his body was often left alone in there where he fell.

The top of each mountain is part of the most special. Mount Everest is the tallest mountain peaks in the world. Located in the mountains of the Himalayas, these mountains make the border of Nepal and China seem so small.

Radhanath Sikdar, mathematician and surveyor from Bengal, was the first state as the highest peak Mount Everest through trigonometric calculations in 1852. This calculation is done using teodolitdari distance of 150 miles away in India. Most of the people of India believe that these peaks should be named according to Sikdar, not Everest.

The altitude reached 29,035 feet (8850 m) which has been determined by using GPS satellite equipment on 5 May 1999. Which was believed to slightly low at 29,028 feet (8848 m), which established in 1954 with an average size of a few places around the mountain. The new height was confirmed by the National Geographic Society.

His reputation as the hardest mountain climb in the world is clear. Basically there are two paths to the summit, which tests even the most seasoned climbers - reached the top just means you browse the history books where you become one of the explorers rare with a superhuman ability to survive against the cold air and physical challenges that is in the mountains.

Although the easiest route to the summit was found on the Nepalese side, the Chinese border almost exactly the most popular among climbers - a little fact that even tried to climb to the summit, although there are many smaller roads and more to dimanage toward the parts of a challenging mountain Everest the climbers of all skill levels.

The high Mount Everest is almost impossible to understand just by looking at the pictures. Original views of the mountain is indeed impressive to see them let alone imagine a successful climb this mountain - there are about 2,000 climbers have managed to do, most do so in the last ten years.

But this does not mean it is becoming easier - hundreds of people have died trying to find ways to reach the highest peak of Mount Everest, not including anecdotes and stories of the climbers who have climbed to the summit of the mountain and never returned.

Fatigue is the main reason that most causes the climbers were forced to return home, but on May 29, 1953, the couple's first successful climber set foot on the highest peak of Mount Everest. Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay reached the summit, starting adventure for miles under the Nepal side.

They were the first survivors of "the death zone" (zone of death) that is found in the area is above 24,000 feet, where Hillary write his name a record as the first explorers set foot on the summit of Mount Everest.

It is difficult, but for years the climbers continue to try - now at a cost of U.S. $ 70,000 you can join an expedition with little or no experience though. This adventure, however, very, very dangerous. For every five climbers who left their mark on the top of Mount Everest, one of whom died.

To this day for the mountain climbers who feel that climbing Mount Everest is a good idea remains a fierce debate. For climbing Nepal government is a source of revenue for the guides who accompanied the climbers and costs around 25,000 U.S. $ per person.

This does not mean that Everest is not an attractive tourist destination location. The Everest base camp, located near the temple Rosphu in rural areas of Tibet, visited by thousands of tourists every year, for those who think that the origin to set foot on the famous mountain is already a victory.
